Author's Note: Sorry for such a long wait. I had a writers block, but I am back now, and excited as ever to continue this story.


It has been three moons since the Clans have been created. The four started a meeting called a Gathering near the cliff every moon. It will be a one day of peace, where all the Clans come together and talk about what was new.

During the three moons, nobody talked to each other much. They just got used to fighting and hunting. Windstar had lost a life to a fox, already.

Thunderstar yawned as the sun shined down on his gray pelt that glimmered in the light. "Beautiful dawn," He whispered as he stood up.

The tabby walked over to the prey pile, and sighed that nothing was there. He had been hunting, but for some reason, it seemed as if someone was eating it, because he didn't eat all of it.

Crows could have gotten it... Thunderstar thought as his stomach growled. He groaned as he walked over to the empty area, and sniffed around. No scent that he noticed...

Wait.

Is that a hint of WindClan? The leader thought.

Thunderstar walked down the hill, entering the border of WindClan. "Windstar?" He asked, looking for the tom.

Soon, a big brown cat walked over to Thunderstar, smiling.

"Oh look, it's Thunder. Oops! I meant Thunderstar. It's so hilarious to think that someone like you is actually a leader, that I forgot!" He purred.

The gray cat hissed, and moved a paw over.

"You do realize this is WindClan territory, correct? I can kick you out," The brown tabby smiled.

The gray cat rolled his eyes. Wind shouldn't have gotten to become a leader. He's completely insane, and he will cause something to happen one day. I can just feel it inside of me... Thunderstar thought.

"I will get off once you keep off my prey," Thunderstar hissed.

Windstar chuckled. "Your prey? How about you keep off my prey!"

Thunderstar's eyes widened. "Your prey has been stolen as well? I thought I scented WindClan..."

The brown cat sat down, wagging his tail slowly. "Oh, no. I would never steal such prey hunted by disgusting cats like you. For all I know, you could have had a disease while you hunted a piece of prey. But..." he paused to lean towards the ThunderClan leader's ear, "A cat has been stealing my prey. As well with Riverstar. I don't know about Shadowstar..."

Thunderstar sighed. "Well if it wasn't the three of us, and the three of us lost prey, it must be her? Who else would be stealing our prey, anyways."

Windstar nodded. "That's the first intelligent thing that you said, but you got most of it from yours truly!"

"Ooh. I like this game. That is your thousandth lie you said."

Windstar hissed. "Don't start anything with me. Anyways, Shadowstar and I got into a little incident last moon, and I prefer not to talk to you, so you are all on your own."

The gray cat shook his head, then glanced at Windstar from the corner of his eye, and slowly moved his head vertically to the other tom's. "Incident? What happened?"

Windstar waited for a few moments, then sighed. He knew that Thunderstar wouldn't leave without an answer.

"Well, you see, I was refreshing my borders, when Shadowstar came right towards me. We had a little fight about what area was ours, but nothing big. Not as big as that fox," He smiled.

Thunderstar's eyes widened and gasped as he remembered the last gathering, when Windstar announced the fox in his territory. He remembered Shadowstar's evil look before he said that, and her smile after he announced that.

"That fox didn't come near your territory!" Thunderstar gasped. "It was...Shadowstar!"

Windstar sighed, and nodded. "Yes."
