The first thing Lin Chung noticed was that he didn't feel like himself. He also felt a soft breeze, which was completely odd, since he was inside. However, he saw differently when he opened his eyes. He was on a stretch of grass on a lakeshore, and by a very big oak tree. Then, he noticed something else. He was a cat. When he looked around more, he saw some other cats also out cold nearby. Are those…yes, it's them! Not only was it his teammates, but Second Squad, the Commander, and Rosefinch.

A bird twittered in the distance, and a black cat leaped to her feet. Lin didn't know who it was, but it was probably either Sonia or Alpha Girl. Her mew proved it. "Where the heck are we?" It was Alpha Girl.

"I don't know, and I don't know why we're cats, either," he meowed to her. First she stared at him like he was crazy, and then looked over herself. She muttered something, and then prodded a black tom, likely Kowloon. "Hey Kowloon, guess what; we got turned into cats!" she meowed.

"You're nuts," he muttered without opening his eyes. Then, she clawed his nose with an annoyed hiss. He leaped up, yowling. He froze. "...Okay, you're not nuts."

Then, Lin heard rustling. He froze, and so did everyone else, all now awake. Then, a golden tabby cat and pale gray cat emerged from the bushes. "I told you I smelled other cats!" the gray she-cat meowed to the golden tabby. The tabby's eyes narrowed.

"Who are you?" he asked.

Apetrully walked up to the cat. "I am Apetrully," he meowed. "This is Lin Chung, Mystique Sonia, Mighty Ray, Mr. No-hands, Jumpy Ghostface, Alpha Girl, Kowloon, Goldeneye Husky, Hurricane Lee, Archer Lee, and Rosefinch."

"That's a lot," the golden cat muttered. "Well, I'm Lionblaze, and this is Dovewing. You're on ThunderClan territory, and tell us; how did you get this far without anyone noticing?"

"To tell you the truth..." started Apetrully, "we don't know ourselves. We woke up here a little bit before you came out."

Lionblaze thought a moment. "Well, you better come with us. Firestar will know what to do."

Lin looked around the camp in awe. They had entered through a bramble barrier, revealing a stone quarry. There were cats here, cats there, cats everywhere. He noticed two kittens watching them with wide eyes, and their mother quickly herded them into a den. Some older-looking cats watched them with wary eyes. Then, on top of a rocky ledge, a flame-colored cat with green eyes emerged from the den that was up there.

"Lionblaze, who are they?" he asked.

"Well, I'll let them explain." Lionblaze turned to look at Apetrully. The ginger cat followed his gaze.

As Apetrully introduced them, Lin noticed something. Some other cats had come out of the other dens, including a gray tabby with jay-feather-blue eyes. He was staring right at Lin. Why is he doing that?

Then, he noticed that Apetrully had finished, and the ginger tom now knew their names. "Very well, then. I am Firestar, leader of ThunderClan. You may stay here for as long as you wish."

There were mews of protest at this. "Firestar, what will the other Clans think?" one called out. "Our reputation is bad enough already!" another cried.

Firestar silenced the Clan by raising his tail. "I've already decided. And, they will also be helping in hunting and patrolling, as well. All of them."

Lin's eyes narrowed. At least he's letting us stay here. But something tells me that we won't be going home anytime soon...if ever.

Sorry for the wait; having a bit of writer's block. ~Eclipse~
