Prologue

"W-where am I?" Spottedleaf demanded nervously, her clear, pale amber eyes darting around the misty forest.

"Welcome..." hissed a dark voice smoothly.

Spottedleaf shuddered. She had just been killed by Mapleshade in the battle against the Dark Forest! Surely there couldn't be anything after StarClan?

"Again, where am I?" Spottedleaf demanded again, her voice firmer this time.

"Welcome..." the voice murmured again, this time with a slight hint of amusement in their mysterious tone.

Then a large, dark brown tabby slid out of the evergreen ferns damp with dew.

"You have been killed in StarClan," he meowed, dipping his head, his icy blue eyes quickly looking up at her before his head had a chance to jerk up.

"My name is Hawkfrost. And I have been killed in the Dark Forest, though for you it was StarClan," the tabby purred, circling Spottedleaf patiently.

"Where am I?" Spottedleaf hissed through gritted teeth.

Hawkfrost purred with amusement.

He swept his bushy tail along the leaf-littered ground. Suddenly, there were no leaves, but snow splattering across the ground and bare trees.

"How..." Spottedleaf began, but Hawkfrost silenced her with a touch of his tail-tip to her mouth.

"Welcome to ImaginationClan," he mewed, purring slightly.

"Anything you want to happen can happen, just think it up," mewed Tigerstar, his deep voice rumbling in his chest.

"How do you guys know so much if you only just joined?" Spottedleaf queried, her voice quavering.

"We died before you, dear Spottedleaf. You learn great things in a few hours," Tigerstar jeered, tossing his head up to point to the sky as a glowing cat flew down and landed in between them.

"My name is Harestream," mewed the pale-white she-cat, "and I faded away in StarClan as I was long forgotten."

A dark cream tabby kit appeared in a green puff of smoke. He had mischief gleaming in his pale blue eyes, as well as his claws clearly unsheathed.

"My name's Tendrilkit," he huffed, puffing out his chest.

"And I faded away in the Dark Forest as no one remembered me."

"A kit in the Dark Forest?" Spottedleaf hissed under her breath.

"Mind you, I killed many other kits," Tendrilkit spat at her, a glint of pride shining in his eyes.

"So, make yourself at home," Harestream invited warmly, flicking her lighter tail enthusiastically.

I have a feeling that I'm not going to like it very much here. Spottedleaf thought to herself darkly as she glanced around at the other cats who were making things appear out of nowhere.

And what happens if I die here as well?
