Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors or the cats in it unless I make them up (very unlikely).
Author's Note: My third story. High possibility for mistakes. Please excuse me for those of mistakes.
Basically, it's really that I don't enjoy the plot very well in the second series. Soooo, Firestar is STILL the main character. Eh, Firestar is just still pretty good. It's probably because some people read the more earlier series and keep going. THAT just makes Firestar a bit more disliking. This is a good way to change those things. ^.^
By the way, this also could be a major spoiler for those of you who haven't read the second Warriors series: The New Prophecy. Read at your own risk if you haven't started the second series!
Chapter 1: The Dream from StarClan
"Come, Firestar..." whispered a voice. Firestar had no idea where he was or who was talking to him. The scent was so familiar though... Bluestar!
"Where are you Bluestar?" asked Firestar desperately, but there was no answer. Finally Bluestar appeared walking toward Firestar. Firestar tried run over to her, but she kept staying out of his reach.
"Meet with three other cats at Midnight...on the full moon... there is trouble coming..." mewed Bluestar so quietly that it was hard to hear her. Then Bluestar was fading away.
"Bluestar! Don't leave me! Who are the other three cats?" asked Firestar, but Bluestar was already gone.
"Firestar...FIRESTAR! Wake up!" meowed a voice. Firestar woke up to see Graystripe in his den.
"You were mewing so loud, you must've woke the whole clan!" remarked Graystripe. Firestar got up and looked amazed.
A-a prophecy. For me again? Some other warrior deserves it! What if I fail? thought Firestar. He sighed. I understand StarClan, I will not fail you. Shall I tell Cinderpelt I wonder... Yes, I should. I feel like StarClan is asking me too do it. I also feel that I need to tell Squirrelpaw and Brambleclaw.
"Firestar? Are you okay? You looked like you just saw a monster that crushed a ThunderClan warrior," teased Graystripe.
"I-I'm okay, Graystripe." Firestar shook his head. "Now what brings you here? Please hurry with whatever is on your mind."
"Sorry, Firestar. Ravenpaw visited and said that new monsters and more Twolegs are roaming around," answered Graystripe. Firestar felt like he had bugs crawling his skin. The recent dream had made him worry so much and the news made the trouble sound worse than ever. "Anyways, Firestar, it's not like it's our concern."
Firestar shook his head. "It is, acually. Graystripe, send out extra patrols daily until the threat is definitely gone for sure. Until then we must be cautious." He tried to hide his fear and fortunately, he succeeded.
"Okay..." mewed Graystripe slowly and nodded respectfully toward Firestar. As soon as he was gone, Firestar burst out of his den and headed for Cinderpelt's den.
When he arrived there, Cinderpelt was working on mixing some herbs until she saw Firestar. "Oh! Hello, Firestar. Is anything wrong?" asked Cinderpelt.
"Is Leafpaw in here?" Firestar hoped she wasn't. This was something Cinderpelt and Firestar had to discuss about without Leafpaw.
"No. I sent her out to fetch some herbs," answered Cinderpelt. She finished mixing the herbs and her attention was all at Firestar.
"Good. Cinderpelt, I had a dream." Firestar prayed to StarClan no one was listening but Cinderpelt.
"Go on," encouraged Cinderpelt.
"I had a dream from Bluestar. She said I had to meet with three other cats at Midnight. She said trouble was coming," continued Firestar. "I just hope nothing bad really happens so I told Graystripe to send out extra patrols."
"Firestar, you just have so many prophecies. I don't know how you can handle it all!" meowed Cinderpelt. Just then, Leafpaw came into Cinderpelt's den.
"Cinderpelt, I brought the herbs you asked for- FIRESTAR! What would you like?" mewed Leafpaw. Then Leafpaw realized she was being rude. "I'm sorry I was so sudden like that."
"Leafpaw, Firestar has, uh, no business here! Just telling me there will be more patrols around the borders," answered Cinderpelt before Firestar could answer.
Firestar nodded. "Yes, Leafpaw. It is none of your concern. I will be heading out now." He turned to Cinderpelt, "Thank you for letting me talk to you, Cinderpelt." Cinderpelt turned to Leafpaw and started asking her to mix some herbs.
Once Firestar was outside, he searched for Brambleclaw and found him rolling in the warrior's den on the hard soil instead of the moss as he slept. Brambleclaw suddenly started to mew out loud like a kit begging for milk from it's mother. Brackenfur came into the den and told Firestar he would deal with it. "BRAMBLECLAW!" he yowled. "Get up! Get up! NOW!"
Brambleclaw blinked open his eyes and as soon as he realized that Firestar was looking at him, he jumped up. "Sorry, Brackenfur, Firestar..." he muttered.
As he turned to Brackenfur, Firestar meowed, "Certainly. Brakenfur, please excuse us." He turned to Brambleclaw. "Follow me," he demanded.
"Y-yes, Firestar, of course." Firestar walked out of the warrior's den. The two cats went into Firestar's den.
"Brambleclaw..." started Firestar. Brambleclaw looked hopeful. Firestar realized that he made it seem like he was in trouble.
"I-I didn't do ANYTHING! Did Squirrelpaw tell you or what?" Brambleclaw mewed desperately. Firestar suddenly felt a strong pang of pain that he wanted to know what Brambleclaw knew.
"No, Squirrelpaw didn't tell me anything, but what DID you tell her?" Brambleclaw looked like he had bugs crawling on his fur. He hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke.
"Firestar, I had a dream... Bluestar said that I had to talk to a cat from this clan. One that is not a kit nor apprentice. Not even a medicine cat or queen," answered Brambleclaw. Firestar then understood. That CAT was himself.
"Brambleclaw, I am the cat you must meet..." Brambleclaw shook his head in disbelief.
"It may seem like that, but you do not have the acceptance of StarClan." Brambleclaw realized what he was doing, and then looked like he was REALLY in trouble now.
"I do have the acceptance of StarClan," meowed Firestar as he looked at Brambleclaw as if became an enemy from ShadowClan.
Brambleclaw looked guilty. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't know that, Firestar... what else did she tell you?" asked Brambleclaw.
"To meet with four other cats at midnight, on the full moon." Firestar wanted to tell Squirrelpaw, but then he heard pawsteps.
"Who's there?" Firestar raced out his den. Once he knew who was spying on them, he felt like the pain from a badger was gone. The cat that was spying on them was the troublemaker, Squirrelpaw.
"Sorry, what did I do?" asked Squirrelpaw.
"Nothing bad. I was going to tell you anyways. If you want to come, don't tell anyone else." Squirrelpaw looked surprised.
"You knew I was there?"
"Of course," answered Firestar. "You have the loudest pawsteps in the forest! Let's go on patrol, NOW!" Squirrelpaw looked offended, but she just follow Firestar as he went away.
Firestar decided to patrol the ShadowClan border. He wasn't able to trust Squirrelpaw because she always breaks promises. Almost always that is.
"Firestar, how do you get dreams from StarClan?" asked Squirrelpaw as if she really wanted to know. Firestar sighed.
"Squirrelpaw, you get dreams from StarClan when they want to give you dreams. That's how. They could choose you, me, or even Bramblecla-"
"BRAMBLECLAW? He's terrible! Why would StarClan choose HIM?" interuppted Squirrelpaw.
Firestar gave Squirrelpaw a 'Hush!' face. He sniffed the air and scented ShadowClan! The scent was strong. Luckily there was only one ShadowClan cat. Firestar realized it was Brambleclaw's sister, Tawnypelt. Tawnypelt and Brambleclaw's father was Tigerstar. (The extremely terrible one, but got killed with one swipe of a cat) Tigerstar was the leader of ShadowClan. Tawnypelt joined ShadowClan because it was Tigerstar's clan.
Tawnypelt noticed Firestar and stopped, but gave an ominous look at Squirrelpaw. "Hello, Tawnypelt," greeted Firestar.
"Hi, Firestar. Patrol?" asked Tawnypelt. Firestar nodded. As long as he was at the other side of the border, he was not considered an enemy. "Firestar, have you seen Brambleclaw? I want to talk to him privately."
"I haven't ever seen since I had a little chit-chat with him," Firestar replied. Squirrelpaw dabbed Firestar on his shoulder with a paw.
"Hey, Firestar, weren't we on patrol and talking about something?" asked Squirrelpaw. Firestar froze.
"Er, right!" Firestar shook his head and regained conciousness. "I'm sorry, Tawnypelt, we haven't seen Brambleclaw at all on our patr-"
"I'm right here," meowed a voice. Firestar turned his head around and saw Brambleclaw. "What is it Tawnypelt? Firestar, please go on with your patrol." Firestar nodded, shocked that Brambleclaw might have heard the whole conversation with Tawnypelt, of course, which wasn't important. He walked away following the border with Squirrelpaw right behind him.
I suppose that's enough for now. I mean really! It's pretty long if you ask me. It took lots of days to make this first chapter! Please clap on this *clap* *clap* *clap*. Thank you very much. v_v
