Author's Note: So, one night I was thinking about Warriors and suddenly, I got the idea to make the Harry Potter characters into Warrior cats! Here's the result…enjoy!
Note #2: Some names might be un-canon or unsuited to the appearence of the cat. This is because I tried to connect each cat's name to his/her HP name, plus use the HP character's hair and eye colors for their cat's pelt and eye colors.
Disclaimer: Anything recognizable is not mine.
So...on with the story!
When Blackkit was a moon old, Lilystream and Deerleap nudged his sleeping form awake and led him to the mouth of their cave. He stumbled over his paws, barely staying upright, eyes half-closed in sleepiness. Blackkit heard his mother murmur, "Look up, Blackkit." The tiny cat opened his eyes wide and lifted his head to the velvety night sky; what he saw was more amazing than any sight that had greeted him in the HallowClan nursery.
When Blackkit was a moon old, he was introduced to the stars.
Deerleap purred at his son's wonder and said, "Up there is a place called StarClan. When a cat dies, his spirit travels to StarClan, and he becomes another star in the sky."
"One day, we will all be a part of StarClan, where clans can get along without battles, and all cats can be peaceful," Lilystream said.
"If you are ever lost, you can turn to StarClan. They visit you in your dreams and, sometimes, your waking moments, and the StarClan warriors will guide you through your life. You can always depend on your warrior ancestors," Deerleap said, lifting his gaze to match Blackkit's and staring with a wonder to rival the kit's.
"Blackkit, you are now looking at your warrior ancestors," Lilystream mewed.
Ancestors, thought Blackkit. It was an unfamiliar word, yet it brought him memories of fierce cats, loyal warriors ready to fight and die for their clan.
One day, I'm going to be just like that, Blackkit vowed. He turned to his mother, ready to proudly voice his ambitions, but saw that her face was no longer happily blissful. Instead, her eyes were fearful, staring into a thick tangle of brambles just a tail-length away.
"What's going on?" he meowed to Lilystream, scared by the look on his mother's face. The reddish warrior did not answer; instead, she whispered to Deerleap,"He's here…he found us…"
Both cats stared into the bramble bush, where rustling sounds were now audible. Suddenly, the noises ceased: the three cats looked around wildly, searching for the source of the now-halted noises, and, in their confusion, a scarred, hairless cat padded out of the tangle.
"Deathstar!" snarled Deerleap menacingly, but Blackkit could sense the fear in his voice. "You have no right to be here; there is no reason for death tonight…"
"No reason, Deerleap?" hissed Deathstar in a high, cold voice. "I think there is a perfect reason…you see, killing can be necessary, if the benefits are as extravagant as they are now…"
"You call them benefits, Deathstar?" hissed Lilystream; Blackkit had never heard more contempt in her words. "So many cats will die…but the rest, they will be benefitted beyond their dreams! But you do not think of those who live for others…you do not consider the Warrior Code…"
Her voice had risen to a state of hysteria; Deerleap continued where she had paused.
"What about the innocent kits? What of noble warriors who would be willing to die for their clans? Would those be killed too, just so you can reach you goal? Deathstar…what you propose can never happen. You must accept that the forest is not a malicious territory…"
With a snarl of fury, the hairless cat leapt onto Blackkit's father, giving no time for reaction. Sharpened teeth closed on Deerleap's throat, and the black warrior lived no longer.
"No!" howled Blackkit, rushing to Deerleap's still flank. It couldn't be; his father wasn't dead…
But the battle was far from over. "Stand aside, Lilystream," Deathstar said, his voice dangerously low. "I wish to only kill the kit, you need not die…"
"Not Blackkit, please, just kill me instead," yowled Lilystream. "Anyone but Blackkit…you can have me but please, please don't kill my son…"
Deathstar looked sure of his victory as he attacked Blackkit's mother. In a flash of well-practiced claws, Lilystream's body was lying next to Deerleap's, sadly littering a once-perfect scene. Just one victim to go…thought Deathstar, licking Deerleap's blood from his jaw. He sprang at Blackkit, landing a blow across his head, but was instantly deflected. Misty cat forms with star-spotted pelts were loping past Blackkit, attacking Deathstar with a fury that was found in few cats. The StarClan warriors clawed every inch of the furless leader with very real claws, bit off chunks of skin and drew blood with very substantial jaws. Blackkit watched in awe, the pain of his head forgotten, as the ghostly cats forced a fear upon Deathstar's face that had not been there before. The beaten leader struggled to his feet and limped out of the clearing; he would probably lose one or more lives from the wounds inflicted by Blackkit's StarClan army.
One warrior, a pale tabby with stars glittering in his eyes, turned to the trembling Blackkit. "Listen close, young one," he meowed softly. "If you leave HallowClan camp and run towards the big oak tree, you will be able to see Twolegplace. Go to the first nest you see…you will be safe there."
"But—I belong in HallowClan!" Blackkit mewed pitifully.
"You will not be safe in the forest while Deathstar walks these woods," the star-eyed warrior meowed gently. "Now go, little one…and remember, you will always be a HallowClan warrior."
As he spoke, the tabby had faded until nothing remained of him except lingering scent of starlight. Blackkit's green eyes stared mournfully into the darkened forest, and he realized that two cats were approaching him: a gray-and-white one and a dark, shaggy-furred tabby.
"Ashstar!" he said in surprise; he had never before seen his clan leader.
Ashstar's eyes looked troubled as he responded, "Young Blackkit. You have suffered a terrible, terrible loss, and I pity that you must face such troubles so early in life. And I am sorry that you can no longer remain in HallowClan. Raggedfur"—he pointed a tail tip at his companion—"shall escort you to your new home, where Specklefang and I will meet you for one last time until...Well, good luck, Blackkit…"
With that, Ashstar was gone; disappeared out of the clan entrance accompanied by his formidable deputy. Raggedfur, a large, imposing tabby, said in a rough voice, "Come on, young Blackkit, I will carry you out of camp."
Weary with sadness, Blackkit staggered towards Raggedfur and let the larger cat pick him up by his scruff. The rocking motion created by Raggedfur's even pace was soothing, and Blackkit finally succumbed to a deep, dream-ridden sleep.
