So, first actual chapter in the story! Let me know if you guys want me to post pictures of my cats somehow, because they are my real cats. Okay, let's start by explaining the territories and story!
There is a jungle bordered on one side with a dried up canyon, and a river that is made up of several streams coming down from the mountains and drops as a waterfall into the canyon, bordering two more sides. The last border is filled with foothills covered in shorter jungle trees leading into the nearby mountain range.
Two clans live in the jungle; LunaClan lives in the bottom part of the jungle, and SunClan lives in the topmost parts of the trees. StreamClan lives on an island on where the streams join. StoneClan lives in a side of the canyon. The foothills are used for Gatherings, and, if it is extremely needed, and only then, extra prey.
The other four clans (a.k.a. ThunderClan, RiverClan, WindClan, ShadowClan) do exist, but they are far away, at least for a cat. Probably, for a human, it's about 20 miles, in the opposite direction of SkyClan.
Takes place in the time during the book right after Hollyleaf died.
LunaClan is kind of the ThunderClan of these four clans, but there are main characters in other clans, and sometimes even whole chapters take place in other clans.
I AM JUST MAKING THIS PLACE UP. IT DOES NOT EXIST, MOSTLY BECAUSE IT'S A COMBO OF THE AMAZON AND ASIA.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN WARRIORS, ERIN HUNTER DOES. IS THIS BIG ENOUGH FOR YOU?
~~~~LUNACLAN~~~~
It was a calm greenleaf morning in the LunaClan camp. Rainstorm was eating a small cockatoo with Wolfspirit. Suddenly, a kit cried out and heads turned to the source of the noise. From the scene, it looked like Honeykit was chasing Whitefang around again, but he tripped over a branch. He had twisted his paw, but he was on his chest with his head laid flat. His back went up and over his head so that his backside was over his head and his tail dangled into his face. Kestrelkit and Nettlekit, Honeykit's brothers, stood on either side of Honeykit, trying to stifle giggles.
"Stop laughing and go to your mother!" snapped Whitefang as he turned around and padded to Honeykit. Whitefang was mean and short-tempered half the time, but he was nice to his clan most of the other half of the time. However, he was most gentle and kind when Honeykit got hurt or needed help. He gently tipped Honeykit so he was lying on his side and looked at his paw as Honeykit's siblings scampered to Seedtail. "Rainstorm," called Whitefang gently. Honeykit was wincing when his paw was touched.
Rainstorm brought Honeykit into the five hollow interlocking bushes that served as a medicine cat den. There was to be a Gathering that night, so the cats had to prepare for the absence of some of the warriors. They had to remember that very large predators threatened their clan. The tigers could easily break through the camp walls if they weren't hidden nor strong. Leafsky trotted to Wolfspirit and told him that the covering of the camp was disrupted in a certain area.
They padded out of the tunnel of trees that only a cat could fit through. Their camp was located in a clump of trees so dense that the tunnel was the only way in or out. The only problem was that the dense branches overhead let little light through, creating the illusion of an eternal cycle of twilight to night in the camp. Leafsky lead Wolfspirit to the hole. A branch had sagged to make a hole in the dense wall of foliage. Leafsky watched for any predators as Wolfspirit stuck the branch back into place. Suddenly, a black eagle burst from the foliage overhead and swooped for the cats.
All of LunaClan were trained to deal with predators, and a black eagle was no exception. As the black eagle swooped, Leafsky leaped up and landed on it's back. As soon as she landed, she began kicking with all of her might with her back legs and holding on tightly with her front. The bird screeched in pain as she hit its wings, trying to lower them before killing it. She did so successfully, and as soon as she was a tail length away from the ground she bit down strongly on the bird's neck, silencing its cries forever.
By this time, Wolfspirit had patched up the hole and was watching Leafsky's display. "Wonderful job," he purred in praise, causing Leafsky's chest to puff in pride. "That could be used as extra fresh-kill for the clan." Leafsky nodded and grasped one of the bird's limp wings in her jaw, and Wolfspirit did so with the other. Luckily, nothing else attacked them, and they got to camp safely.
Immediately, as he always did, Wolfspirit headed straight back to working for the clan. You would be lucky if you ever had a real conversation with him, all he did was work. As soon as he reached the warrior's den, made from overhanging branches, he organized a hunting patrol. In the jungle, hunting patrols were made up of two warriors assigned to hunt and three warriors to protect them.
The warriors that were in the hunting patrol were Redpelt and Iceheart, with Pinefall, Swiftfoot, and Grayfire as guards. They left and came back a little bit before the Gathering so that the warriors going could eat before they left. After they all had a good meal, Briarstar gathered the cats going to the Gathering, and they ran for the hills, literally.
Haha, see what I did there? I know, it isn't funny. 3: Anyway, this was an introductory chapter for LunaClan and the warriors in it, plus the medicine cat and a queen and three kits. I know, it was written weird, but this is the first chapter. Most first chapters are written weird. There will be introductory chapters for the other three clans, but I need a lot more cats.
