Warriors: Firestar's Quest

Chapter1:

The forest was under the cover of twilight as a little mouse scurried quickly around the base of an old oak tree, desperate to find at least one last tiny morsel of food before thedeadly, chilling grip of Leaf-Bare overcame the forest, and ice and snow fell from the sky. As the mouse checked under a few fallen leaves for even the smalles fragment of an acorn, an flame colored tom cat hiding in a nearby tree, made his leap for the kill. the cat landed directly on top of it's prey, but before he could manage to make the killing blow, a voice rang out across the forest, distracting the tom, and letting the mouse slip out from underneath his paw, and away under the bushes. "Firestar," it spoke in a thundering, male tone,"Firestar! Come to me! I shall be waiting for you!" At this, the flame colored cat (Firestar) spoke out to the voice,"Who are you?" he said,"What do you want with me?" Then it replied,"Come to the great sycamore in three nights time! I shall be waiting for you Firestar!" "Who are you!" Firestar yowled, "WHAT DO YOU WANT!" but the voice that had spoken to him only moments ago had gone.

Firestar awoke from his dream with a start! Was this real, he thought,"did I really dream what I thought I just dreamt?" Maybe I'm just delirious, maybe I should go for some water, and try to catch some more sleep before sunrise. Firestar streched his narrow limbs and rolled out of his mossy nest, and set out for the river to have a drink. "Is StarClan sending me another sign?" he said to himself, "Am I to save the clans once more form hardship and hatred? I have suspected that Longtail has been up to something for the longest time since Tigerstar's death, but I haven't had and proof of it yet."

At long last, Firestar approached the river that bordered RiverClan and ThunderClan, bowed his head down closley to the water, and began to lap up the cool crisp, refreshing liquid, when all of a sudden, the voice spoke to him again, only this time, it sounded near him rather than all around. "Enjoying the water there Firestar?" Firestar's eyes shot open at this! His neck fur rose and his claws unsheathed from his paws. "Look down Firestar!" said the voice,"And let me see your face."

Firestar opened his eyes and when he did, he saw a very frightening sight. There was a calico tom staring at him from where his reflection should have been, and it looked bloodstained from recent battle. "Firestar!" spoke the bloodstained calico, "T answer you question, I am no sign from StarClan, but I would wish very dearly to speak to you, you little kittypet!"
