Me: I don't have much to say right now so let's get on with the chapter.
Shard: Finally saying something intelligent.
Luna
"Come, Cedarfang. We are near camp now." Luna beckoned the young tabby tom forward. "This is what we call Night-cave. It is our camp." Cedarfang nodded and padded into the dark cave.
"Wow." Cedarfang looked around the cave and flicked his ears. "It is amazing." Luna nodded and looked around the cave. "That is the leader's tunnel, the warrior's tunnel, the apprentice's tunnel, and the kit tunnel." Ember introduced the dens to Cedarfang, pointing with his paw at each tunnel as he named them.
"What about the medicine cat tunnel?" Cedarfang questioned. "Over there. But we call them the healer." Luna explained. "But more on that later."
As Luna told Cedarfang more about the camp Luna kept having more and more flashbacks of her past.
-Several moons before-
"Let's go Lunapaw! You will be late for my ceremony!" A black tom urged Lunapaw on towards the cave. "I wouldn't miss it for a moon of prey, Nightpaw, don't worry." Lunapaw soothed her friend calmly.
"I know but still!" Nightpaw bounded into camp his tail fur bristling excitedly. "Let all cats gather in front of Shadow-Rock for a clan meeting!" Lunapaw's father leapt up onto a large black stone. As the cats gathered. "Today is one of my favorite ceremonies to preform. Nightpaw and Stonepaw step forward." Nightpaw stepped forward to stand beneath Shadow-Rock next to his sister.
"Do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect your clan even at the cost of your life?" The large silver leader asked the young cats.
"I do Darkstar." Came Stonepaw's steady reply.
"I do." Nightpaw breathed, and Lunapaw had to strain her ears to hear the words the tom spoke.
"Then from this moment on Stonepaw, you will be known as Stoneheart in honor of your fierce fighting ability and courage." Darkstar rested his head onto Stoneheart's and she licked his shoulder respectively in response.
"Nightpaw, you will be known as Nightfrost in honor of your determination and commitment." Darkstar did the same ritual with Nightfrost and Lunapaw led the cheer.
"Nightfrost! Stoneheart! Nightfrost! Stoneheart!" Lunapaw's shout echoed around the cave.
-A few weeks later-
"Lunapaw from this moment on you will be known as Lunafeather in honor of your gentleness and compassion." Lunafeather purred and licked her father's shoulder.
"Lunafeather!" Nightfrost dashed over to her. "Congratulation!" Nightfrost's words came out as a jumbled rush and Lunafeather smiled. Everyone in the clan knew that Nightfrost had a terrible crush on her but didn't have the wits to tell her.
"Thank you Nightfrost." She responded sweetly.
-Sorry for the time skips-
"Can I look now?" Lunafeather followed Nightfrost blindly his tail covering her eyes. "Alright." Nightfrost finally pulled his black tail away from her and she gasped. She was looking at a large lake, shining in the moonlight.
Nightfrost beckoned Lunafeather down to the shore. "I knew you would like it." Nightforst purred. Lunafeather turned to look at Nightfrost. "Lunafeather, I love you." Nightfrost's amber eyes gleamed in the night, and Lunafeather saw a spark of fear, fear of rejection.
"I love you to." Lunafeather meowed.
-Laaaaater-
"I know it is a sad loss for everyone that Featherbreeze is dead. And it is my duty to appoint a new deputy. I call upon Starclan to hear my words as I speak them over Featherbreeze's body. Lunafeather will be the deputy of Moonclan."
Lunafeather curled her tail in delight as all the cats cheered. "You deserve it!" Nightfrost rushed over to her, purring. "I try to be modest in these situations." She responded.
"Yes but you were the popular choice." The black tom told her.
-Still gotta deal with it-
"Nightfrost!" Lunafeather yowled over the din of battle. "Lunafeather!" Came the response.
Lunafeather launched herself at a Bloodclan cat tearing it's flank. "Help me!" Lunafeather spun around and spotted a small tabby she-cat trapped underneath a large tom.
Lunafeather charged the tom and swiped him away with a mighty blow. "Run, Leafpaw!" Lunafeather hissed to the apprentice. Leafpaw turned tail and ran into the forest.
The silver she-cat launched herself into the fray again and her silver pelt glowed in the moonlight which made her a target for everyone. Suddenly Lunafeather felt her paws give out from under her and she fell to the ground, pinned down by a black and white tom.
"This is your last warning!" The cat above her yowled. "Stop hunting in our territory or we will do this!" The black and white tom sank his fangs into her neck and the last thing she heard was Nightfrost's outraged and insane screech.
-Sorry, last time skip.-
"I think, we should name her Rainkit." Lunafeather purred as she rested her tail on a little she-kits head. She had given birth to a a litter of four, but only one survived. Lunafeather had survived the battle with Bloodclan, barely. Nobody knew she was pregnant, and the battle made the kits come to early.
Nightfrost let out a grieved sigh. "Starkit, Spitikit, and Darkkit,. Rest in peace in Starclan." Nightfrost carried his three little dead kits out of the kit tunnel.
-Finally back to the present-
"Luna. Luna you there?" Ember waved his tail in front of her face. "Oh yes, sorry Ember." Luna shook her head and meowed "Just lost in some memories." Ember nodded.
"Rain!" Luna turned and called to her kit. "Yes Luna?" The dark grey tabby she-cat padded towards her. "Go get your father please. I believe that soon we will be strong enough to destroy Bloodclan." Rain's eyes glimmered and she bounded off.
"When will we attack?" A black tom padded towards Luna, trailed by Rain. "In half a moon, Night." Luna replied. He purred "Nightclan will avenge the fallen Moonclan, once and for all."
Me: I am dearly sorry for all the time skips.
Shard: You should be.
Luna: My backstory is confusing.
Me: I will probably write a story about Moonclan.
Luna: That's good.
Me: Just to clear up some stuff, Nightclan used to be Moonclan but Moonclan was destroyed by Bloodclan and Luna became leader, used the remaining cats from Moonclan and some other wild cats to create Nightclan and named the clan after her mate. Any other questions just ask me.
Shard: Now review, and it had better be my chapter next!
