Lionblaze walked through the forest, Cinderheart, Squirrelflight, Brakenfur, and Dovewing close behind. He was leading the hunting patrol, and his whiskers twitched as he scented a mouse. He lowered himself instinctively, and the others halted. Lionblaze put one paw in front of the other, carefully stalking the mouse which was upwind, then pounced, killing it in one swipe.

"Nice job!" Cinderheart complimented as she padded up.

"Wait!" Brakenfur called, sniffing the air. "I smell cats!"

"Yes, us you mousebrain!" Dovewing rolled her eyes.

"I hear it too..." Lionblaze said under his breath. Then he saw a flash of white, then nothing.

Intruders!

"Is she alright?"

"My little bouncing friend, shut up."

"Dude-"

"Kurow, you're not helping."

Somehow, a portal had opened up in front of the Celestial Plain. It had sucked up several people, including Waka, Issun, Kurow, Chibi, Ammy, and even a few people from Nippon like Susano, Oki, Samickle, Kai, and Tuskle. Weirder thing was that they were turned into cats.

"Fruitcake, how are we to get out of here?!" Issun, now a small, tan cat with green eyes, asked Waka who was now a tabby with deep brown stripes, a silver moon on his forehead, and amber eyes with traces of blue.

"Quiet..." Waka muttered as he examined the white she-cat in front of him. She was still faintly glowing, and her eyes were closed. Red stripes ran across her fur and a smaller tom was beside her; Chibi.

"You'd better think of something!" A blue-grey tom huffed beside him with a white underbelly.

"Samickle, calm it."

A lighter grey she-cat nudged him with her muzzle. "Sammy, you shouldn't fret..."

"Tuskle, how are you so calm?!"

A brown she-cat sat down. "What about Yoshpet and Lika?! Oh, the village..."

Waka's eyes flashed. "Just calm down!"

A golden, young tom sighed. "I agree, dudes."

"Merci, Kurow."

"'Welcome, dad."

A ginger tom with black streaks padded up. "Where are we...?"

Waka sighed. "I don't know, Oki... I don't know..."

Lionblaze ran through the trees. He had seen what looked like a white flash, but there was cats nearby! Where they rouges, WindClan warriors, or lost kittypets? There was only one way to find out.

He had the other warriors on his tail. Squirrelflight was right beside him, Dovewing to his lower flank. Brakenfur and Cinderheart were close behind, however, and ready to fight.

They burst out of the bushes to find a circle of cats, all around a white one. A dark tabby looked at them with amber eyes and Brakenfur shivered.

His glare was just like Tigerstar's...
