CHAPTER ONE
All was well in thunderclan, they had won the battle with bloodclan, Scourge was dead, and so was Tigerstar. Although good while it lasted, their former alliance with windclan, riverclan and shadowclan to form Lionclan and defeat bloodclan, had diminished and the other clans had gone back to their territories.
Firestar was a good leader, and he led the clan through many difficult times. Nobody calls him a kittypet anymore, she thought to herself, if they did I would rip their fur off. She laughed to herself, ever since she had mated with Firestar in secret, she had a hard time hiding her feelings from the other clan cats. She was sure Dustpelt and Ferncloud knew about them, after all, they had first hand experience with this sort of thing, as Ferncloud was heavily pregnant with Dustpelts litter of kits. Sandstorm decided to go say hello to Ferncloud, who was sitting outside the nursery, sunning herself in the new leaf dawn.
"hello Ferncloud" sandstorm said settling herself down next to the queen.
"hiya sandstorm"
"are you ready for the kits" sandstorm inquired, wondering what it would be like if she ever became a queen.
"if truth be told in kinda worried" Ferncloud replied.
"nonsense" came a voice begin them, goldenflower, one of the clans older queens, had just emerged from the nursery. She was nursing no kits of her own, but having gone through kitting many a time, she decided to stay and help with the new edition to the nursery.
"absolute nonsense" she continued "I've told you a million times darling, kitting is nothing to worry about, you are young and healthy and have plenty of milk, your kits will be fine"
"ok goldenflower" Ferncloud replied, and sandstorm, seeing the two queens were about to go into incredulous detail, decided to go out on a hunting patrol. She padded of to find Sorrelpaw, her apprentice, and Graystripe, thunderclans deputy, the second in command after Firestar.
After informing cloudtail where they were going so he could tell Firestar, the hunting patrol set out through the gorse tunnel entrance to camp.
