39 Warriors

I do not own the 39 clues or the Warriors series. The authors who wrote (write) these books are doing a fantastic job.

This is a story of the 39 clues and Warriors smashed together into one. See what happens in a story of love, betrayal, etc.

"Lilyfang, when you saved my life, I realized that maybe you weren't such a...well...crow food minion I thought you were. As I got to know you more, and what kind of cat you truly are, I realized that maybe you would be a good she-cat to be around for...well...the rest of your life. I love you too, Lilyfang." The beautiful she-cat's eyes glistened with joy as the two began to snuggle together. The whole clearing seemed to brighten at the love that had unfolded before it.

They didn't come back to camp for a long time.

The next day, business continued as usual. For the first time though, there was a border skirmish between Thunderclan and Shadowclan. Thunderclan won the skirmish, which made Bloodstar even angrier. To make matters worse for Crystalclaw and Swiftfoot, a dark cat began watching them. They couldn't really see much of him, however, he was completely black. But he did worry them. When they met up with William again and told him of this cat, he told them to be extra cautious of him.

"On that matter, be extra cautious of everyone," he added before they departed another way yet again, "Trust no one."

Trust no one. Why would William even think about telling that to clan cats? Rogues, loners, kittypets, sure. But Warriors and Apprentices? If he was talking about another Clan, sure, but not within their own Clan. That would be ridiculous. Meanwhile, Firepaw and Naturepaw, Swiftfoot and Crystalclaw's apprentices, are doing marvelously. Crystalclaw thought her apprentice could be the best warrior that Thunderclan ever had. Today, Crystalclaw is going to secretly test her, and if she passes, she will talk to Colorstar about promoting her apprentice to a warrior. Crystalclaw saw Naturepaw walk in from the apprentices' den and walks over to talk to her.

"Hello, Naturepaw." Naturepaw, who was talking to Wavepaw earlier, turned to see her mentor. Naturepaw smiled and replied,

"Hi, Crystalclaw. What are we doing today?" Crystalclaw smiled at her apprentice's entusiasm and asked,

"How about we go into the training hollow and go over what you've learned thus far?" Naturepaw nodded and started to follow Crystalclaw to the training hollow. As soon as they entered the training hollow, Crystalclaw jumped into the brush to hide from her apprentice. Naturepaw looked around, panicked, but then closed her eyes. Crystalclaw jumped out, about to attack her, but Naturepaw jumped out of the way and jumped onto Crystalclaw's back. Crystalclaw attempted to shake her off, but Naturepaw wouldn't let go. The apprentice's claws were dug deep into Crystalclaw, causing extreme pain. She yowled and Naturepaw immediately jumped off, realizing that this was going too far. Crystalclaw wimpered, pretending to be hurt. Naturepaw could see the hurt and began panicking.

"Oh no! Crystalclaw, are you all right? I'm so sorry, I thought we were training, and..." She immediately stopped when Crystalclaw jumped her. Naturepaw jumped back, but she wasn't quick enough to dodge Crystalclaw's claw attack. They didn't call her Crystalclaw for nothing. Naturepaw jumped up, far away from Crystalclaw. In fact, she was so far away that she was on the other side of the training hollow. Crystalclaw was surprised by this, but then snapped out of her shock, and cried,

"You need to be on your guard at all times, Naturepaw!" At this, she began to laugh a bit. Naturepaw started laughing too. It was the first lesson that Crystalclaw ever taught Naturepaw.

Soon after, they began to hunt. Naturepaw was excellent in hunting, and caught 2 squirrels and a mole. Crystalclaw herself caught 2 ravens. Crystalclaw smiled at her apprentice as she collected what she caught. Naturepaw passed all of her tests that Crystalclaw threw at her. Well, she did miss that 'on your guard' test, but it does prove that she has heart.

"You did wonderful, Naturepaw. At this rate, you'll be a warrior in no time." Naturepaw beamed at her mentor's praise.

As soon as they took the freshkill back, they were shocked to see that the whole Thunderclan camp was in an uproar. Crystalclaw and Naturepaw looked at each other and ran over to see what the commotion was all about. All of the Thunderclan cats were standing around in a giant circle. The two pushed through to see Colorstar hang her head over the body of Stormfang, Thunderclan's deputy. Crystalclaw ran over.

"Colorstar, what happened?" The leader looked up to see her old apprentice. She smiled sadly and said,

"The most awful thing Crystalclaw...our deputy is dead." As Crystalclaw took in this news, Lilyfang was howling in despair. Silverflower looked around, and then left. Crystalclaw bowed her head and asked,

"How did this happen?" Colorstar was about to explain when she was cut off by Lilyfang.

"I can tell you what happened! When you and your apprentice left, Crystalclaw, business was going on as usual in Thunderclan, until that wretched piece of crowfood Loudfur and some friends came. Shadowfoot, Hawktail, Coldstep, Blackpetal, and their apprentices. Loudfur told Colorstar to hand you over to him or else. Of course, Colorstar had to refuse, because when she did, they let in a badger to our camp! They were gone by the time we started fighting the giant thing, and in the end, we finally killed off the thing," her lips started to wobble, "but Stormfang was killed in the process!" Lilyfang began howling in mourn over the deputy. Colorstar put a sympathetic tail around Lilyfang's shoulders as she cried and the leader added,

"Stormfang isn't the only warrior we've lost. Blazetail and Crescentmoon are also with Starclan now." What? Crescentmoon is...gone too? Crystalclaw lowered her head in sorrow. Suddenly, Crystalclaw felt someone push against her. Her attacker was Lilyfang.

"Lilyfang, stop!" Colorstar commanded. But the angry and sad she-cat either didn't hear or didn't want to stop. She started clawing and biting the innocent warrior.

"If it weren't for you, Stormfang would still be alive! This! Is! All! Your! Fault!" Lilyfang yowled in Crystalclaw's ear. Swiftfoot knocked Lilyfang off and held her back. Colorstar stepped inbetween the two she-cats.

"Lilyfang, stop. You know better than to just blame and attack a fellow Clan cat. Crystalclaw had nothing to do with this," spoke Colorstar, a hint of calmness and a hint of anger. But Lilyfang was too angry to hear. She howled as she struggled against Swiftfoot's grasp.

"Yes she does! Her and her stupid brother! They're half Clan! Of course it's their fault! They're half Shadowclan! They're obviously responsible for this war! They're responsible for Stormfang, Blazetail, and Crescentmoon! They're...responsible...for...EVERYTHING!"

Lilyfang's last word echoed throughout the whole camp...especially in Crystalclaw and Swiftfoot's ears.

A/N:

Lilyfang has officially gone crazy! Yikes! Review and/or give me ideas on Book 3 of the 39 Warriors series! It doesn't have to be a title, but it can be an idea on what could happen in the book, etc. etc. Until then!
