Spottedpelt of ThunderClan

P.S Someone appears very soon….

Also if Spottedpaw breaks a bone she loses part of her power….. (Sorry I was feeling bored and random!) J

SPOTTED.

I have to explain to everyone about the Owl. "Guys its okay this Owl was sent to us from StarClan to guide us to the Sun-Drown place." I tried to explain. I could tell everyone was thinking I was crazy! They all glared the owl. 'I know how to gain their trust' I told the owl in my mind. 'Whatever you can do, I'm in' The owl told me. "Sorrelpelt come help us!" I cried out. All of a suddenly Sorrelpelt arrived right next to us. "What Spottedpaw said about Snowfeather is true she is sent to you by StarClan to guide you to the Sun-Drown place." Sorrelpelt told us. Everyone nodded now.

"So we have to go through the Twoleg-place." Mosspaw asked. Snowfeather nodded. "Spottedpaw for now you will be her translator until the Sun-Drown Place then she will be able to speak to all other animals but that's when you return." Sorrelpelt mewed. We all agreed.

We started to set off into the Two-Leg place, We had to cross another Thunderpath, I carried Sky and Mosspaw carried Mud. We all raced with Snowfeather right behind us ,flying with her majestic wings.

We finally got to the other side in one piece. We were now in the Tow-Leg place "There is only one bad thing." I said. "What is it?" Swallowstrike asked bored. "Since we are in the Two-leg place there will not be a lot of Fresh-Kill." I thought aloud. "What about dogs?" Goldendawn asked. 'Spottedpaw we should travel by day and at night we should sleep in Hollows in any trees we find so we will be off the ground and away from dogs.' Snowfeather whispered I agreed. "Hey Snowfeather has an I idea! She says we should travel during the day time normally and at Night we should sleep in Owl hollows so we will be protected from dogs." I told everyone Snowfeather's plan.

"I agree." Goldendawn agreed. "I second that!" Winter exclaimed. "But we don't find any Hollows we should sleep in trees and have Night watches." I planned. Everyone nodded. We started to pad in the Twoleg-place, I hated the feeling of hard unnatural stone underneath my paw. I made sure Sky was in my sight the whole time, a hawk could easily take her away.

I shuddered at the thought of the Silver kit just taken away by a hawk and into the sky. I saw a bush wave, I padded over and jumped four feet in the air, Not kidding. I screamed from shock.

SHORE

I was still riled up from Rainpaw and Sandpaw, My own Brother! I thought I heard a scream. I jumped a good few feet in the air, and I screamed. A few cats stared at me. "I thought I heard a scream." I said embarrassed. Snowgaze looked at me questioning. I padded over to her. "What was that about?" She asked confused. "I thought…. I thought I heard Spottedpaw scream." I admitted kind of scared.

Snowgaze stared at me. "Really? Where ever she is, she must be far away from Camp." Snowgaze reasoned. But it seemed so real. I met up with my mentor Falconclaw he was a tabby tom with blue eyes, his sister was Mistbreeze . He looked happy. "Are you ready to take your Warriors assessment? Falconclaw nodded" He asked. "Really!" I gasped. He nodded. Sandpaw and his mentor Ravenwing. Ravenwing was a Medium-size Jet black tom with Amber eyes and a Scar in his ears, he wasn't the nicest mentor but he good.

Sandpaw ran up to me. "Shorepaw we get to take our Warriors' assessment today!" Sandpaw exclaimed , I nodded. We started to jump excitedly. Our mentors stared at us their expressions half bewildered half Amused. We stopped, I'm really embarrassed.

We followed our mentors farther into the Forest. I saw Silverpaw run over to me. "I get to take my warriors' assessment today!" We both exclaimed. "Wait your taking your Warriors' assessment!" we mewed in union again. "Good Luck!" I told her, I licked her on the cheek, She smiled. "Good Luck Shorepaw!" she encouraged me with a lick on the cheek. I looked over and saw Sandpaw and Rainpaw staring at us. Rainpaw must be taking her assessment today as well.

Rainpaw and Sandpaw were staring at me disgusted, with their mouths were hanging wide open. I rolled my eyes, Silverpaw looked over at them. "They don't like me do they?" she asked me softly. I was shocked. "No…No.. Come on we need to get to our mentors." I changed the subject.

The Apprentices Me, Sandpaw, Silverpaw, and Rainpaw along with our mentors gathered at the training Hollow, It was a very big Dip in the ground that you had to climb down, but it was easy, it was shallow and filled with sand so it didn't hurt if you fell.

Falconclaw looked at all of the Apprentices. "We all discussed this. For your Warriors Assessment you will have until Sun-High to hunt and bring back as much Fresh-Kill as can catch." Falconclaw began. Rainpaw's mentor Moonfur was a Silver She-Cat with blue eyes, and Silverpaw's Mentor Tawnyfur was a Brown She-Cat with Amber eyes steeped forward.

"Then after Sun-High you will come back to the Training Hollow and after a little rest you will begin the second part of you assessment with a Fight Test" Moonfur began. "You will….. Fight your mentors!" Tawnyfur challenged us. We all gasped.

"Now each mentor will assign where they want their Apprentices to hunt." Ravenwing announced. "Shorepaw I want you to head towards the MoonPool and River." Falconclaw challenged me, I was shocked but happy. I was afraid I was going to the ShadowClan border.

"Sandpaw I want you to head towards the abandoned Twoleg Nest and the area around it." Ravenwing assigned my brother, he nodded good that's where he likes to hunt and of course sleep. "Rainpaw I want you to head towards the Shore and the Forest around it." Moonfur told Rainpaw she looked happy. "Silverpaw I want you to head towards the ShadowClan border." Tawnyfur told Silverpaw, she nodded.

"Now Go!" Falconclaw declared. "Good luck!" I called out to my brother and friends. "Good Luck" everyone shouted. I traveled on the Trail to the Moon River. I remembered when ever we went out hunting Spottedpaw and I would get a drink there, I still miss her.

I caught a scent of a Pheasant. I looked up and saw a Pheasant perched in a tree. I quietly climbed the tree and pounced. I was shocked I actually brought down the Pheasant. I buried it while smiling to collect later. I quickly saw a squirrel and crept towards it, I pounced and it saw me and tried to flee up a tree, but my claw caught on it and brought it down. I was pleased, I buried it with my Pheasant.

I continued towards the River Border, I was making excellent progress. I could see Rainpaw at the Shore. I continued hunting and at Sun-High I made my way back to the Training Hollow collect all of my fresh-kill. I saw Silverpaw was already there. I waved my tail happily at her, she smiled at me. I dropped my Fresh-Kill in a pile like Silverpaw did. Rainpaw and Sandpaw joined us also with their prey.

Our Mentors came right after us, They all smiled pleased. "You passed this part of the assessment." Falconclaw congratulated us. We all yowled victoriously. "Now we will fight." Moonfur announced. I froze, I had to fight… Falconclaw. We all began.

Falconclaw and I circled each other. He launched himself at me, I climbed up the nearest tree, he was obviously confused. I jumped from the tree and clawed him. He looked pleased with my attack. After a while we all stopped, All of the Apprentices were breathless. "Congratulations everyone you will all make great Warriors!" Moonfur declared when all of the Mentors all discussed things.

We all jumped in the air. "We are Victorious!" Rainpaw yowled.

1 QUARTER-MOON LATER: SPOTTED

We are all near the Sun-Drown place according to Snowfeather, I climbed a tree to make a survey, and I saw…. Sand… Water…. Shoreline… The Sun-Drown Place! "We are almost upon the Sun-Drown Place!" I yowled my excitement. I leapt from the tree and landed right next to Mosspaw at it's base. Everyone gathered around the tree. We all headed out towards the Sun-Drown Place. My paw touched the soft warm sand. I stepped onto the Shore with everyone.

I padded onto a cliff, I saw a cave, "Maybe we need to go into-" I wasn't looking and I stepped one step to far over the Cliff screaming, I fell into the cold Ocean. I jumped at Mouse-length in the air it was so cold. I saw Mosspaw run towards the cliff. "Mosspaw! Don't be a Mouse-brain! Don't yo-" I was cut off by a wave of water, I'm a good swimmer but this isn't a river back at the Lake.

She did the most stupid thing ever, she jumped in! She started to struggle, ' If we survive this you are going to through you straight back into the Water or off a cliff!' I snapped at her. 'Right back at you!' She snapped back at me. ' If I die I just want to say I like Sandpaw!' Mosspaw wailed thinking I wasn't listening 'I like Shorepaw!' I wailed, I realized she probably heard me. 'You like Shorepaw!' She asked shocked. I didn't want to answer. 'You like Sandpaw!' I asked changing to subject around onto her. 'I hope she doesn't know that the reason the Cats in ThunderClan thought she was into a Kittypet for a moon was because I spread that rumor!' Mosspaw cried hopefully.

'That was you!' I spat. 'Were is the dang off switch!' Mosspaw cried frustrated. 'There is no off switch you Mouse-brain.' my vision was going black and I passed out.

SPOTTED

I woke up and I was in the Cave I saw earlier, I could tell it was still the same day because it was just pass Sun-High. I jumped up but was pushed back down by Winter and I saw Sky on my stomach. "You need rest." she insisted, I saw her fur was wet. "Did you save me?" I asked. She smiled. "I returned the favor I guess." she smiled. I saw Sky stir. She looked at me. Her eyes showed her relief. I got up slowly. "Where is Mosspaw?" I asked.

Mosspaw padded in. "Your safe!" I cried happily tears of Joy running down my cheeks. She smiled at me. 'We are not done with the conversation we had when we nearly died.' she persisted. I was not looking forward to that but if she insisted. I tensed,I sensed another animal in the cave besides all of the Cats, and Snowfeather. "Someone else is in here!" I whispered , No one seemed scared. I saw a large figure step out of the shadows. I saw a Leopard from the Myths of LeopardClan.

The Leopard stared at me, Her big Amber eyes surveyed everyone in the Den. "Welcome cats from the Clans." She whispered calmly like it was everyday she found an owl and a group of cats in her den. "Hello we are from-" "ThunderClan, RiverClan, WindClan, ShadowClan. You are all from different Clans expect the two young Apprentices who are both from ThunderClan. And the Queen with kits were former Kitttypets." she said. "Your Physic!" Mosspaw exclaimed. "You are just like my sister! you guys should make a group for Cats who are like Physic and Stuff… but you would… probably be the only ones who…. And I… I don't know where I'm going with this…" she trailed of muttering .

The Leopard laughed. "No I'm not Physic. My name is West" The Leopard smiled. "I'm Spottedpaw, This is Mosspaw, Dawneyes, Goldendawn, Swallowstrike, Winter, Sky and Mud." I introduced everybody. "And this is-" I was cut off. "Snowfeather." I turned around in amazement. Snowfeather can speak to other animals now! "Snowfeather you can talk to cats and other animals now!" Mud exclaimed.

"I must go now , let StarClan light your path and lets hope our paths cross again one day." She murmured, we all nodded. "Let StarClan light your path." I saw Sky whisper to Snowfeather. Good she, Mud and Winter believe in StarClan.

Snowfeather flew away, I will miss her, I turned to West. " Okay What are we here for?" I asked. She smiled at us. I held Sky close with my tail, I know we can trust West but she was about as big as a… well a Leopard! She sat down. "You are here because I need to tell you about an enemy to come." she began, "Well tell us!" Swallowstrike insisted. West laughed again. "You are obviously the arrogant one aren't you?" West joked. Swallowstrike glared at her, he better not do something rash.

"I can't tell you much…." West started regretfully and apology. I was fine, any clue

Will be helpful. She sighed and sat down, evening sitting she was at least One and a half feet taller than Dawneyes and the rest of us.

West sighed. "A group of cats will appear and try to take over and kill the Clans"

SHORE

I was proud to be a Warrior! But I was looking for Echostar to see if I can do something. I saw my leader. "Echostar may I have a word?" I asked. "Yes Shorefeather. What is it?" she asked her eyes pierced my pelt like a claw. "You know-" She cut me off. "What about Spottedpaw?" she asked. I was embarrassed she knew I was going to ask that. "H- h- How did you know I was going to ask that?" I asked nervous. Maybe she reads minds! "Shorefeather I'm a leader. I know everything!" She declared playfully.

Echostar became serious again. "But what I don't know is what are you going to ask. Out with it!" She exclaimed slowly. I hesitated. "I want to …. Go on a search for her and Mosspaw and maybe the others! Remember how the other leaders informed us about 1 cat missing from their Clan at the same exact time Spottedpaw and Mosspaw left! They must be together! I can find them!" I took a breathe. "Let me do this…" I whispered softly. I sensed someone behind me.

I turned around and saw Rainfur and Sandclaw staring at me. "I will think about it…." Echostar mused. "I want to go! He can't do this behind himself!" Sandclaw exclaimed. Echostar looked at Rainfur. "No you can't go Rainfur we need our Warriors here." She turned to me and my brother. Mosspaw would have said. 'Oh StarClan! Echostar is Physic!' "Shorefeather… I don't know." She mewed. "Please I can do this!" I declared, "Okay as long as Sandclaw goes with you." She proposed. Sandclaw and I nodded eagerly.

We padded away to make plans. I saw Silvereyes pad by and wave her tail at me. I waved back. I think I saw her giggling with one of her friends in her 'Possy' I padded away quickly. I met Sandclaw in a … Tree where would have some privacy.

I saw him one of the top branches, I climbed up and when I reached him I was breathless, "Why… did you… pick this…Branch!" I exclaimed gasping for breathe, He looked at me innocently. "I'm going to get you in your sleep!" I threatened him. He shrugged. "When ever you and Spottedpaw try to 'get me back' you never do. You two are to good to get revenge." Sandclaw said matter-a-factly. I guess he was right.

I sat down on the Branch, "When should-" I was cut off "Tonight!" Sandclaw's outburst surprised me. "I think we should talk to Echostar and Sunpelt." I reasoned, he nodded glumly, I climbed down from the tree with Sandclaw behind me. I saw a flash of silver, and I jumped when I saw Silvereyes pretty eyes right in front of me,

"You scared me Silvereyes!" I exclaimed. She giggled, "So what's going on?" she asked when she stopped giggling. "Nothing!" I lied, I hated lying to her but I had too, I couldn't take her on this Journey, she ,might get hurt or lost… I can't bear to see her body torn up and bleeding, I hastily bid her goodbye.

I saw Rainfur walk nervously up to me. "H-Hey Shorefeather….Can I talk to you?" She stuttered. I was slightly surprised, What did she want to talk about? She led me to the Tunnels Mosspaw,Spottedpaw,Sandpaw,Rainpaw and I discovered. She Stared at me for a little bit. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Don't play dumb with me!" She spat.

I was frightened. She looked at me like I was born yesterday. "Are you talking about me and Silvereyes?" I asked stunned and hurt. "No! I talking about the Kittypet with Wings!" She spat with Sarcasm. "Yes! I'm talking about you and Silvereyes!" She shrieked, even though were not heard, I was shocked no one over in RiverClan could hear us.

We glared at each other, our fur bristling, our ears flat against our head and our teeth bared. One of the young Kits stumbled behind in a bush right next to us, she looked up at us. "I'm so sorry.." she whimpered and pelted away from us.

I saw Rainpaw's shoulders slump like the argument had tired her out, her eyes stopped flashing. "Its because….. Snowgaze overheard Silvereyes talking to an unseen ally and she said…that She had you wrapped around her paw and that she would be able to get back at Spottedpaw." I insisted. I gave her my Death- Glare at her.

"She doesn't like you at all." I warned him, he must have took it as a chance to get rid of his feelings. He looked like if I wasn't one of his close friend he'd kill me.

SPOTTED

I looked at West. "What type of Cats?" I asked, she turned her amber gaze on me. "An evil type, from… The Dark Forest!" We all gasped so did Winter,Sky and Mud whom I told about the Dark Forest.

"You must go back and warn the clans and prepare for the attack you must discuss this with all of the Clans and StarClan. If the Clans don't work together they will all die." West warned us, we nodded.

"We shouldn't go through the Two-Leg place again." Dawneyes mewed. We all nodded. We hated it in the Two-leg place. "I agree. There is a Mountain Range nearby, that would be the quickest way back to the Clans." West offered us advice, the sun was setting. "You should sleep here tonight and get a fresh start" West mewed. We all sank down in the comfortable sand at the bottom of the Shore cave.

I slept peacefully missing my home, family and friends.

I woke up early, and soon everyone else stirred, "I will escort you to the Mountain Range then you will be on your own." West meowed, we started off. We passed a forest were we stopped to hunt. We made good timing, we made it to the Mountains by Sun-High.

I turned around to face West. "May StarClan light your path and let our paths cross again one day." West murmured. "May StarClan light your path." We all bid her good-bye. Mosspaw and I picked up Sky and Mud to carry for awhile.

I we looked back at the Shore. The Journey is half over…
