Firemoon's name is that because when I was writing this story I was thinking up names, couldn't decide so my girlfriend at the time said that name and I went with it, we broke up some time later but we're still friends and she's okay with me usuing the name.

Also, this story is the second book so if you want to know what happened before this please go read that one. It's around twenty-three chapters long, and the storyline is different with it having the cats that were in Bluestar's Prophecy.

Also I'm needing Oc's for loners, rogues and kittypets. If anyone is interested please submit those, (no Clan-cats). But I will be accepting some ships between charaters and their kits later on! So that should be fun, just put it in the comments and i'll pick which ones to go into the story.

Thanks for reading!

Leaves scattered the floor as Bluefur watched her kits play. Snowfur sat beside her, talking to Leopardfoot who sat beside them. The sleek black she-cat had just joined the nursry a few moons back, about the time her own kits were born, expecting to have Pinestar's kittens.

Everyone seemed surpirsed by the news, Pinestar was almost older than Leoaprdfoot's parents. And he didn't seem to take much interest with his new mate and unborn kits. But nonetheless her denmate seemed happy. Constently talkimg about names with Snowfur and how her kittens would look, or if they would become warriors or a medicine cat.

Bluefur herself was woundering about that. All of her kittens seemed content to playfight and just mess around, but they were still only a moon and a half old. Maybe little Wishkit would become a medicine cat? She's calm, and always hanging around Featherwhisker.

"Bluefur!"

Looking up she smiled, spotting Firemoon as he carried a freshly killed rabbit. Dropping it at her paws, he nuzzled her cheek. "How're the kittens?" He meowed, sitting down beside her.

Crouching to take a bite of the fresh-kill, she mewed. "They're fine," she swallowed, swiping a paw over her whiskers, "growing fast too. Seems like they were just born."

Her mate nodded, a faint smile on his maw. Firemoon had visited her every day since their kits were born. Bringing only the freshes of kills, and always sleeping beside her whenever he could. It seemed weird being in the nursery. She didn't really plan much for kits before Firemoon came along. No tom had seemed to catch her eye, even when her sister or the others talked about future potential mates.

Beside her, Firemoon stared out at the blue sky. Fluffy white clouds floated above them. The wind seemed almost completely still, the only hint of it was the shifting trees overhead and the swaying of the grass. Bluefur took a moment to groom her fur, pausing every now and then to make sure the kits weren't getting into trouble.

She jumped as Firemoon spoke. "I should get going. Sunfall told me to lead a hunting patrol, I'll be back soon." Giving her ears a brisk lick he trotted off. Pausing only to speak with the golden fur deputy, then leading with Sunfall, Thistleclaw and Poppydawn following behind.

Sighing she turned to her denmates. "Hey, want this rabbit? I'm full," she added as Snowfur opened her muzzle to object.

"Alright," Leopardfoot nearly pounced onto the prey before Bluefur pushed it over.

Snowfur merely frowned, flicking her tail-tip to a spot away from the black-furred queen. Sighing Bluefur followed. Her ears flattened as she got ready for Snowfur to scold her. "Why aren't you eating?" Snowfur mewed, her eyes narrowing onto Bluefur.

"I'm not hungry," shrugging she forced her fur to lay flat. Was it a big deal not to eat every single time someone tossed food at their paws? She was a queen, warriors had a job to make sure they were fed first. So it didn't seem like a big deal, definitely during Greenleaf.

But Snowfur seemed to think otherwise. "Not hungry? You have three kits to feed! Is this about not going on patrols anymore? We talked about that, Bluefur--queens can'-"

"can't just up and leave when they have kits to think about." Bluefur finished for her, a annoyed look flashing across her face. How many times had she heard that in the past moon?

Shaking her head Snowfur lashed her tail. "Exactly," giving one finial sigh her sister added, "is that is or..?"

"I'm fine," sharply turning she gave an huff. Why did Snowfur have to get into her business? She could handle herself perfectly fine!

...

The sound of the harshs winds whistled in Firemoon's ears. His emerald gaze watching the path ahead of him as Sunfall padded beside him. From behind he could hear Poppydawn and Thistleclaw talking lowly, though it was just about who would end up mentoring the current kits that were close to six moons old.

Sunfall stopped to taste the air, his yellow orbs narrowing as he pointed to a squirrel close by. "Go to the other side, I'll see if I can catch it, while you scare it."

Stalking off Sunfall was placed between the squirrel and the WindClan border, hiding in the bushes. Firemoon singled for the other two to stay behind as he crept forward, leaping out with a loud snarl. The animal let out a squeak before dashing right into Sunfall's paws. The deputy leaped out and slashed the small mammals throat, killing it.

Poppydawn nodded with approval. "Good catch, but the next one will be ours!" She mewed, nudging Thistleclaw's shoulder. To his surpirse the gray tom didn't say anything rude, instead he nodded with a challengeing light entering his eyes.

"I agree, Poppydawn." He meowed in a calm tone, giving his chest a few licks. "Shall we continue on?"

After scrapping dirt over the squirrel, Sunfall trotted to the front. Taking the lead as Firemoon fell into place just beside him. Since Bluefur went into the nursery the deputy had been spending alot more time with him. Giving him more jobs, mostly the ones he always hae Bluefur do. Though it was nice to have a close friend, defiantly being friends with the deputy.

Stopping beside a tree Sunfall marked the scent-boundies. "We could have a patrol come here before tommarrow, or just do it ourselves." He explained one Thistleclaw pointed out this was a hunting patrol.

The spiky tom had frowned to the response. His tail lashing, but otherwise he kept silent with a cold glare at the deputy. After going down the boundary with WindClan they found a freshly dug den, the stank of fox heavily around the area.

Poppydawn crept closer, tail bristling as she scrunched her muzzle. "Yuck!" Shaking her head she added. "Fresh droppings too, we should warn the Clan." Her eyes flashed with worry. "I'll tell the queens as soon as we get to camp."

Nodding Sunfall sighed. "I'll have Firemoon take a few warriors back here and get rid of this nuances." He turned to the ginger tom, who nodded with narrowed eyes.

Foxes could kill kits, and injure queens. He suddered, remembering the fact that he'd seen how foxes could crave cat-meat during his rogue years. "I'll lead one, Thistleclaw, Adderfang, Fuzzypelt, and Dappletail can come with me."

The gray tom huffed. "Why so many cats? Four or even three can take one on," his yellow glare fixed onto Firemoon, his usual spiky pelt seeming even more bristled.

Is he challengeing me? Firemoon raised his head, tail lashing as his ears flattened. "I could take someone else, you know." He hissed, before adding. "We don't know if this fox is big, has rabies, or theres more then one. Taking a few extra cats should be a good cousion to take."

"Rabies?" A confused looked from Poppydawn made him sigh. Did these Clanners not know what rabies were?

Sitting down he nodded with a serious look. "Rabies are when an animal gets a foamy mouth, they're very aggressive, not their usual self and only thoughts are to kill. Along with the fact that if your bitten, you get rabies too and go insane, dying in three days tops." Explained Firemoon, watching as the three warriors eyes grew wide in horror.

Sunfall shook his head. "Theres no cure?" He asked, glancing around at the shadows.

He shrugged. "I haven't seen one yet. If you get rabies, even a kit or toothless elder, they are usually killed or left to die--and they always do." Closing his eyes he shook his head. "Its better to put them out of their misery, leaving them to die is cruel, and they cause so much damage."

The bristled tom just grunted. But something shifted in his eyes that made Firemoon's stomach chur. What is it? Turning away from the fox den Sunfall lead the patrol back around. Slipping into camp were Poppydawn rushed to the nursery and Sunfall called a meeting among the warriors.


Hopefully this is a good first chapter! Like I said, I advise that if your into this book to also read the first one. It has not only the prophecy that is within this AU, but also the backstory.
