Hello, people! I'm running out of ideas. Anyone want to see anything else?

I waved my tail, gathering my Clan together.

Not ThunderClan, you stupid Twolegs. ShadowClan.

I was exiled from ThunderClan, in case you hadn't noticed. I am ShadowClan's leader now.

Stop asking questions. Fine.

As I was saying, I was exiled from ThunderClan when I tried to kill their old leader, Bluestar. She was weak; she had let a kittypet into the Clan, for Silverpelt's sake!

While in banishment, I met up with a few of Brokenstar's old followers and some rogues. I trained them, making them a strong fighting force. I made sure they knew that I was in charge of them.

We soon hatched a plan to meet back with ShadowClan and offer our skills. You see, ShadowClan had suffered from a deadly sickness that came from carrionplace, causing their leader, Nightstar, to die. Runningnose at the time was in charge of both healing his Clan and filling in as leader and deputy.

When my cats and I offered to help, we must have seemed like a gift from the stars to the broken Clan. They allowed us to stay, and Runningnose even allowed me to take over hunting patrols and battle training.

Over the next bit of time, ShadowClan began to trust us. We became full members, some of us for the second time.

They were still in desperate need for a leader, so I vowed to stay beside them, in hopes of being Runningnose's choice. Eventually, one of my cats faked a sign from StarClan, and the medicine cat believed it.

We went to the Moonstone to receive my nine lives, and I became Tigerstar.

I then put my plan into action. I teamed up with Leopardfur, deputy of RiverClan, offering her joint leadership over two Clans, not just one, as Crookedstar was nearing his last breath.

Once Leopardfur became Leopardstar, our Clans joined together. We became TigerClan, in my namesake and in honor of the ancient Clan.

We planned to take over WindClan and ThunderClan, but the stubborn cowards refused.

So we declared war.

I gathered up BloodClan, a bunch of street cats notorious for their ferocious fighting moves, and offered part of the forest in exchange for their fighting. Their leader, Scourge, agreed. My path seemed clear.

I wasn't prepared for what happened.

We arrived first in the clearing, with LionClan, as they called it, not long after.

"Tigerstar, they're here," Darkstripe called over to me.

"Greetings, Tigerstar. Still looking for those prisoners of yours?" Firestar asked smugly.

I almost clawed off his face then and there.

"You'll regret that," I challenged.

"Try and make me," Firestar hissed back at me.

I tensed my muscles. Arrogant, fox-hearted, piece of kittypet fox-dung!

"We reject your offer."

Oh, really?

"The forest was never meant to be ruled by one leader, let alone a murderer."

I took a deep breath, trying to match Firestar's cool tone.

"But it will be. By sunset, there will not be four Clans, but one."

"The answer is still no," the ginger kittypet hissed. "ThunderClan will never give in."

"Nor will WindClan." Tallstar spoke up for the first time.

"Then your courage is matched by your stupidity," I snorted.

I then heard one of the ThunderClan cats gasp, "Tawnypaw!" It was my son, Bramblepaw.

"What is she doing here? Tigerstar must have stolen her!" Brackenfur growled.

I twitched my whiskers. "Steal her? No, no, you fools, she came to us."

"Never! Tawnypaw! Come back to ThunderClan!" Bramblepaw howled.

"No, Bramblepaw." I couldn't pass up this opportunity. "You come to us."

"Join you? After what you've done? I'd rather die!" my son snarled.

"Join me now, or you will die," I hissed at him.

"Then I'll go to StarClan as a loyal cat," Bramblepaw retorted.

"Fool! Stay there, and die with the rest of your foolish Clan."

I looked at my deputy, Blackfoot, and he nodded, raising his tail.

BloodClan came rushing out, claws and teeth glinting. I felt a thrill of satisfaction at LionClan's reaction.

"Well? Still want to fight?" I snarled, sliding out my claws.

Ashpaw called out, "Look at their collars! They're kittypets!"

"So, Tigerstar, will you tell us who your - friends - are?"

What a puny kittypet.

"This is BloodClan," I introduced. "They come from the Twolegplace. I have brought them here to persuade you to join me. You foolish cowards wouldn't have joined by yourselves."

"No, Tigerstar. We will fight, and we will see who has StarClan's favor."

Stupid StarClan. Just an excuse for everything.

"You fools! I was prepared to talk today, to allow you to join my great Clan, and reign over the forest. Just remember it was your fault we came to this. When your entire Clan is dead all around you, remember this moment. It would be your fault, and there is nothing you can do to change this."

I turned to BloodClan. "BloodClan, attack!" When no cat moved, I yowled again, "BloodClan! Attack, I order you!"

The only cat who moved was Scourge. "Tigerstar, Tigerstar, BloodClan is trained to follow my orders, and my orders only."

I stared at the BloodClan leader, shocked that he would dare to challenge me.

Firestar took that moment to walk up to Scourge. Then he began speaking.

"Greetings, Scourge. I am Firestar, leader of ThunderClan. I wish that I could say that you were welcome here, but that would be a lie. Unlike your supposed ally here, I am a cat of honor. If you've believed any promises this cat has made to you, I can assure you each and every one of them were lies."

How dare that kittypet!

"Tigerstar told me that there were enemies in the forest," Scourge meowed. "Why should I believe you instead of him?"

"Cats of all Clans, BloodClan, you have no need to believe or disbelieve me. Tigerstar's crimes speak for themselves."

He really was going to do it. And there was nothing I could do to stop him.

"When he was a warrior of ThunderClan, he murdered our deputy, Redtail, in hopes of becoming deputy himself. Instead, Lionheart was appointed, but soon after died in a fight with ShadowClan. Tigerclaw was then appointed deputy in his place."

"Mew away, kittypet. See if I care," I huffed.

"Being deputy wasn't enough for him. He wanted to be leader. He set a trap for Bluestar, instead, but our medicine cat, Cinderpelt, was caught in it instead. Has any cat ever wondered how Cinderpelt's leg got injured?"

Cats gasped.

"That isn't all. Tigerstar conspired with our prisoner, Brokentail. He brought a pack of rogues into our camp, and tried to murder Bluestar with his own claws. I stopped him, and he was sentenced to exile. As a rogue, he killed one of our warriors, Runningwind. Then, before we knew it, he was leader of ShadowClan, still wanting revenge on ThinderClan. He set a trail of dead rabbits to our camp, with one of our queens, Brindleface, at the end of it. His goal was to lead a pack of dogs into our camp. If we hadn't realized it in time, ThunderClan would have been destroyed."

"Good riddance," I said.

"Our leader, Bluestar, saved me, and our Clan, by flinging herself into the gorge, leading the dogs to their death. She died soon after."

I hissed at him.

"This is Tigerstar's history. It shows that he will do anything for power. Scourge, BloodClan, if Tigerstar has promised anything to you, know that it is all a lie. He won't give up any pawstep of his territory."

I growled once again. I honestly cared less about my history, but about my promise- that was a different story.

"None of that matters now," I hissed, trying to sway Scourge's opinion. "We have an agreement, Scourge. Fight beside me now, and you'll have all what I offered you and more."

"My Clan will fight when I choose. There will be no battle today," Scourge decided. "I will think about what you have said to me, Firestar."

I couldn't take it anymore. I launched myself at Scourge, claws unsheathed.

Scourge turned just in time. He lashed out a paw, claws unsheathed. They were reinforced with dog teeth.

I tried to dodge, but one of his claws ripped from my shoulder to my flank. Pain like fire swept through me, threatening to overwhelm me.

Darkness crawled at the edge of my vision. I cried out in pain, and gave into the darkness.

Thistleclaw approached me. "Tigerstar, Tigerstar. What a fool. Scourge would have made his decision to fight with you, if he had been given the chance."

I felt my blood drain. There was a light figure beside him. It was me. One life lost.

I jolted back awake, pain filling me again. I screeched. Firestar was staring at me in horror.

Scared of a little blood, are you, kittypet? I thought. But I knew it wasn't just a little blood. I felt it pooling around me, creating a huge puddle.

I was plunged into blackness again.

Thistleclaw was there, waiting for me. He shook his head. "I'm sorry. You're going to die."

So I did.

Again.

And again.

And another time.

Until all my lives were spent.

He woke up again, surprised that he felt no pain. He leaped to his paws, ready to spring at Scourge. He felt a tail rest on his shoulder.

"You're dead, Tigerstar." Thistleclaw stood beside me. "Come. We are planning our revenge in the Dark Forest, and you are very welcome."

I smirked.

I glanced back at Firestar, who was staring at my body in horror.

Keep looking over your shoulder, kittypet. I will be back, I can assure you that.
