The Rise Of HopeClan

by a moon's shadow

Lunastar ran and she ran from the thunderclan leader, who she called a monster. As she ran through the camp she saw all the dead bodies of the cats she knew growing up and learning to love. She cried as she ran, and with a pang in her heart she realized she was the only one left in Shadowclan who had been able to run from the claws of Mosuestar. *COMPLETE*

Chapter 11:

Back again!

Lunastar's Pov!

We started quickly, trying to get to Shadowclan's old territory as fast as we could. Before you could say "mouse" we were at the thunderpath. "Every she-cat go first." I meowed. 11 she-cats stepped up beside me we heard the ground rumble and then a monster rolled by. The sickening smell of twoleg zoomed by with it. "Now!" I yowled. We sprinted across. Lightpelt and I picked up our kits and ran.

I felt the hard surface beneath my paws. I could see the paw prints of the monsters that had crossed. I was the last she-cat off the thunderpath and just in time too. Another Monster zoomed by.

I heard Jack yell "Now!" the 10 toms zoomed towards us, definitely beating our time. We continued, cats were chatting as we entered Windclan territory. I said nothing as I led the cats down to the bank where the two-leg had dropped me off.

A little way away I could see the monster riding around. I turned to my group. "That monster is our way to Shadowclan territory." I started. I saw the shocked faces of my group. "Don't worry about the two-legs they are kind, not all of them are bad." I meowed.

Some cats relaxed while others stayed scared. The lake rocked and sprayed water on us cooling us off from the hot Greenleaf day.

The monster rode closer and closer till it was a few cats away from us.

The two-legs I recognized. The girl with her brown fur at the top of her head, and the man who was steering the monster. The girl yowled something and pointed a pink claw at us. The man turned around and saw us.

He rode closer to us; I saw some cats backing off. "They will not hurt us!" I yowled over the loud hum of the monster. Once close enough to land, the girl jumped off and ran straight toward me. She picked me up and wrapped her pink legs (arms, I said legs because cats don't have arms) after a few seconds she put me down and pointed to the monster, the entrance wide open.

I flicked my tail and my group, except for me and my kits made cautious moves. We all hopped on board and the kits started to slide around the slippery ground. "Mama!" Fluffykit cried. "I got you kits." Lightpelt meowed and picked her kits up, putting her tail around them.

However Nightkit, Snowkit, and Hollykit were used to the ground so they just sat down. Sweetpaw did too but Sorrelpaw slid around. Sweetpaw giggled. Sorrelpaw then fell on the ground as the monster started to move. Sweetpaw laughed even more. She gracefully slid over to Sorrelpaw and helped him stand up. "Meant to do that." Sorrelpaw meowed embarrassed. Sweetpaw laughed even more.

I looked around and saw Jack struggling to not slide around. I walked over to him and helped him. He purred, and I smiled.

The girl watched us all scramble around and smiled when we helped each other. The monster came to a sudden halt making everyone fall over.

I looked over at Sorrelpaw as he fell on top of Sweetpaw accidently touching noses. "Sorry!" Sorrelpaw squeaked and stood up. "It's fine." Sweetpaw purred slightly blushing. The twolegs helped us off at the half bridge it felt good to have solid ground beneath us.

The girl looked at me one last time. I nodded at her and she nodded at me waving her pink paw in the air. She walked onto the monster again and off they rode. I started walking toward the Shadowclan border. The group followed.

I placed one paw over the border than another than another than the last on. Every one followed. We were now on Shadowclan's territory. My old home. I followed my memory to the camp. There was the camp entrance. I thought I saw me and Jack sneaking out of camp when we were kits. And then they disappeared and then I saw myself and my mentor Tallshadow as I caught my first prey. Lastly I saw Jack and his siblings and his mother being sent out of camp, and I tried to follow but two guards blocked my way.

I had so many memories here! Some good and some bad. I took a deep breath and walked toward the camp entrance, the group behind me followed my every paw step. My kits and Jack stood beside me as I neared the entrance.

Soon I was in the arch and what I saw in the camp completely horrified me. Thunderclan cats buzzing everywhere and high up on high rock was Mousestar, waiting for us.
