This is my first story so wish me luck!
P.S. The plot for this story belongs to one of my best friends on Mara, Flamekit! Thanks Flame for letting me use this plot!
Prologue
Night was upon the forest. No moon was visible, but the stars of Silverpelt shed their frost glitter over the lake. The starlight was reflected off a small pool that was at the bottom of a rocky hollow. The air was heavy with the aromas of early greenleaf.
The surface of the pool rippled in the soft wind. The fonds of bracken at the top of the hollow parted, revealing a glimmering ginger tom with a flamed-colored pelt. The tom padded down to the water’s edge and looked down at his reflection.
He looked up and more cats appeared, all with the same starry pelt. As if one, they came to the water’s edge, crowding around the first cat. They all leaned forward to see deep into the water. What they saw caused some of the cats to leap to their paws.
“It can not be!” caterwauled a dark brown tabby tom. “It has to be a mistake! Nothing like this could possibly be happening!”
The first tom continued as if no cat had spoken. “The ones of Thunders blood shall arise to rebuild the broken!” He yowled, his voice echoing in the star filled hollow. “ThunderClan will arise again! Soon four clans will roam the lake again, not just three!”
A spotted golden tabby she-cat stepped forward. “This is what I have seen too. It is true. We must find the one’s of Thunders blood and tell them!”
“Now just wait a minute!” A large white tom with unusual jet-black paws jumped up. “ThunderClan was destroyed long ago! How can there be still be cats with ThunderClan blood? No, ThunderClan will never rise again!”
The cats sitting in the hollow began to mummer amongst themselves. “I don’t believe it!” A cat shouted. “ThunderClan will be back! After all this time it is finally happening!” Another meowed enthusiastically.
The flame colored cat stepped forward and silenced the talking cats. “Blackstar, I know this is hard to believe, after all, you knew the cat who destroyed ThunderClan very well. You know that it is true though. You see it as well, you just won’t admit it.”
“Stop this fighting! We should be reaching the decedents of ThunderClan!” A black and white tom with a very long tail meowed. “Let us work together to find them!”
The hollow was filled with mews of agreement causing Blackstar to sit back down and glare at Firestar. “Fine. Let us work together.”
“Good.” Firestar meowed. He stared in the water for a few moments before speaking again. “Featherstripe of WindClan is really of ThunderClan!” He declared.
“Oakbranch of ShadowClan is one too!” Leopardstar, the spotted golden tabby cat yowled. “And Sunpelt!”
“Don’t forget Honeypelt, her sister.” Tallstar, the long tailed cat, added.
Blackstar shook his head. “Sunpelt just nursed with Honeypelt. They aren’t actually sisters, though they do look identical.” Some of the cats nodded their heads.
“Blackstar is right.” Firestar stated to Tallstar. Addressing the whole clearing he started to speak again. “We have a few and know that there are many more. Let us talk to these three first and see how it goes. After that, we will contact the rest!” With that said, Firestar padded out of the clearing.
The clearing was star filled for a few more moments until the other deceased leaders followed Firestar out. Then, the hollow slowly emptied until the only starlight was from the reflection off the pool’s surface.
