Chapter 1
'Ripplepaw pad''ded through the dawn light forest. The sounds of birds and other prey in the trees and undergrowth tempted Ripplepaw, but she knew she could eat when she hunted for the clan first. She easily found a mouse and a squirrel, and swiftly killed them, padding towards camp. "Hello Ripplepaw. Seems like your out quiet early." She turned around, to see Swiftstar, Darkdapple, and Featherstream. "I couldn't sleep, so I asked someone if I could hunt, so I did." Swiftstar stared at her, then purred "Alright. Head back to camp, and we will meet you there." He meowed in a satsfied tone. Ripplepaw sighed, and ran back to camp. She entered through the thorn barrier, and to her expectation, there was not much activity going on, just as she though. She dropped her fresh-kill on the pile, and padded towards the apprentice's den, only to run into Duskpaw. "Sorry!" She meowed. Duskpaw looked at her and purred "Its alright, I was going to the dirt place. See ya!" She said as she ran towards the small tunnel that lead out of the camp." Ripplepaw stared at the she-cat, and padded into her den, and fell asleep in her nest.'''

'Rain feel in h''eavy sheets, slicing through the leaves of the forest trees. Ripplepaw shivered, and shook off her pelt, trying to keep it dry, but, seeing how the weather was, it was impossible to. "Good StarClan! Must it rain so hard?!" Ripplepaw said to her mentor, Foxclaw. The tom looked at her and blinked his eyes "No matter what the weather is like, we have to hunt." He said simply. "It could help that it was not raining like it never rained before!" Ripplepaw said back. ''I've never seen so much rain in my life! ''She though to herself. She tracked down a small mouse, tucked deep into a hole. She crouched above the hole, and flashed her paw into it, hooking the mouse out, and swiftly killing it. "Good job!" Purred Foxclaw from behind her. "Thank you." She meowed. She looked at the small squirrel that Foxclaw had caught. "And nice catch for you to." He replied. "Thank you. We should get back to camp before we turn into water!" He joked, with a tug of his tail towards the camp, and they padded off. '''

Chapter 2
'Whiteclaw ste''pped out of the leader's den, and looked around. He had just made his full patrol around the territory, and was satisfied with the report he had given Swiftstar. He jumped off the highbranch, and bound over to the nursery to see his mate, Tigerstripe, and their kits, Sweetkit and Toadkit. As he neared the nursery, Sweetkit tumbled out, with Toadkit following behind her. "What are you two doing?" He purred as they rolled to his paws. "Playing!" Squeaked Sweetkit. "Yeah! Where playing mouse!" Toadkit piped up. "Be careful, and dont get hurt." Whiteclaw reminded them. "We won't!" They chirped together, and ran away, chasing each other. "Is that you Whiteclaw?" Tigerstripes called out. "Yes, it is my love. May I come in?" He asked. "Of course!" She said in a happy tone. He poked his head in, and shoved his shoulders in afterward, slipping through the thorns. "Are you hungry?" He asked his mate. She looked at him and shook her head "I just ate, but thank you." She meowed. Whiteclaw dipped his head, and padded next to her, licking her between the ears "Alright, I think im going to go hunt, im full of energy." He meowed, as he padded out of the nursery, heading towards the woods.'''

'''Whiteclaw pounced on a squirrel, swiftly killing it. He purred, and buried his prey under to roots of a hemlock. He had already caught a mouse, 3 voles and a rabbit, a large amount of fresh-kill to him. "Nice catch." A voice sounded behind Whiteclaw, and he turned his head to stare at Darkdapple, the ThunderClan deputy, and a respectful she-cat. "Thank you, Darkdapple. I got a big load today!" He purred. "You sure did." She meowed with a tilt of her head, "Well, I better get back to my patrol." She meowed "See ya." She sayed over her shoulder as she disappered into a bush. "Bye!" Whiteclaw called out. He padded towards the hemlock tree again, and got his squirrel, then collected his rabbit, voles, and his single mouse. Carefully working his way back to camp, he up the small hill, and ran into the camp, dumping his kill on the fresh-kill pile, and padding into the warrior's den, seeing as the sun was going down, and he needed a nice, long rest.'''

Chapter 3
'''Duskpaw bounced around her mentor, Darkdapple. "Darkdapple! Lets go patrol the border!" Darkdapple purred at her apprentices wish, "We have to collect moss first, then maybe we can." She told her happy apprentice. Duskpaw nodded, and bound back over to her small pile of moss, and tucked it under her chin. Darkdapple did the same, and the two she-cats made there way back to camp. They weaved through the trees, and went up the small hile there camp sat upon. "Duskpaw, you take my moss, and I will meet you at camp." Darkdapple meowed over her shoulder as she set down her moss, and ran down the small hill. "Alright!" Duskpaw bellowed after her mentor. She grabbed the other wab of moss in her mouth, and carefully made her way up to the camp. As soon as she made it into camp, she dropped her half of the moss in front of the nursery, and dropped her mentors half in front of the medicine den, and ran over to the front of the camp, sitting down and waiting for her mentor. She saw her lean black shape weaving through the trees, with another cat beside her. She saw Darkdapple touch the cat with her muzzle, and sent it off into the woods. Duskpaw saw her roll in a patch of wild onions, and run back up the hill. "We can go on patrol now! Just me and you, and no one else." Duskpaw looked at her mentor and nodded, and jumped down the hill, looking over her shoulder every once and awhile to make sure her mentor was keeping up, but she seemed concentrated with something beyond her apprentice, something beyon Duskpaw even knew, but she didn't ask questions.'''

'The 2 she-cats ''went back into camp, panting. It had gotten hot between the time they had ran off into their territory, and the time they finished their patrol of the border. All was quiet. Duskpaw bounced over to Ripplepaw and purred, flicking her friend in the ear with her tail. "Hey Ripplepaw!" She greeted her friend with a happy tone. Ripplepaw closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side, smiling. "What's up?" Ripplepaw asked Duskpaw, who sat there panting. "I just got back from a patrol, it sure is hot!" Duskpaw meowed "I think im's going to go hop in the little pond behind camp. "I'll come!" Ripplepaw told Duskpaw, as the 2 she-cats padded out of camp'''

Chapter 4
'The water felt ''cool and clean against Ripplepaw's fur. It soaked deep into her fur, and she purred. Duskpaw splashed around in the shallows, then dove into the deep water, bobbing up and swimming around. Ripplepaw pushed herself through the water, gulping for breath, and diving deep into it. She swam around, and popped back up to she Duskpaw getting ready to leap off a tree branch into the water. She jumped off with amazing strenght, gliding through the air, and landing head first into it. ''She might seem care free and empty headed, but she really is a strong smart cat. ''Ripplepaw though to herself, as Duskpaw got out of the water and shook out her pelt, bouncing back into camp. Ripplepaw got out to, shaking out her fur, and she calmly followed the gray she-cat.'''

'The sun peake''d from behind the dark gray clouds. A cold sweep of icy wind blew through the bushes, and rattled the tree branchs over head. Ripplepaw ran through the forest after her mentor, Foxclaw, who was quickly walking towards the river, going to collect water for Tigerstripe and her kits, Sweetkit and Toadkit. "Its cold!" Ripplepaw exclaimed as she fluffed up her dark gray fur, looking like a hedgehog. Foxclaw turned around "Well of course its cold. Theres wind blowing from all directions." He simply meowed to his apprentice. Ripplepaw mumbled something, and dashed foward ahead of her mentor, to the river ahead. She ripped moss out of the ground, and dipped it into the river, getting it to a point where it threatened to fall apart with the weight of the water. Foxclaw popped out of a bush from behind her, and collected water in his moss to. "We better get back to camp before we get blown away." He joked to his apprentice, who nodded her head, and ran into the trees. Foxclaw called out to her, and dashed into the woods after her. He slowed his pace, as he went past a giant tree overgrown with moss and vines. He picked up the pace after he went past it, and bound through the woods, back to camp. She shivered against the force of an icy blast, and pounded through the forest, finally running up the small hill the camp. He sighed as he layed his soaked moss down in front of Tigerstripes, and padded away. Sweetkit quietly stalked up behind him, and pounced onto his back, un-sheathing little claws, and digging them into his fur so she didn't fall off him "Gotcha!" She purred as Foxclaw jumped into the air, grunting in suprise. "You sure did, little warrior!" Foxclaw purred, as he gently shook off Sweetkit, and she tumbled onto the ground. Foxclaw looked up to see the dark gray clouds had gotten darker, and he then heard a crack of thunder as rain began pouring from the sky. He herded Sweetkit into the nursery, and rocketed into the warriors den.'''

Chapter 5
'Rain hammered ''onto the roof of the warriors den. Whiteclaw shifted in his nest, as he listened to it. It sounded like the pound of horse's hooves. He closed his eyes, and sighed, trying to drift into blissful sleep, but was unable to. He stood up, and padded to the front of the warriors den, and stuck his tounge out, as a splash of warm rain landed on it. He licked his jaws, and layed down once more in his nest. He closed his eyes, and finally drifted into sleep.'''

'He blinked ope''n his eyes, to see a lush green forest. He sniffed the air, no clan scent. Instead, he picked up scents of the night, stars, and earth. He blinked his eyes again, and a cat with stars in her fur sat in front of him, purring. "Mother!" He exclaimed as he ran up to the she-cat. Her fur was the color of the white snow, and she had sparkling amber eyes. "Whiteclaw!" She purred "Oh. I miss you so!" She murmered. "I miss you too, Snowbird." He purred, as he rubbed his cheek against hers. "What news have you?" Snowbird asked Whiteclaw. He tilted his head to the side and meowed "Not much. Toadkit and Sweetkit are healty, but nothing more than that. Swiftstar says his misses you, if only that two-leg hadn't hit you with a flying claw (Bullet)." She blinked her eyes slowly and sadly "I know." She said, then she lifted her head high "Your such a strong noble cat, Whiteclaw! I had to jump in front of you, I didn't want you to dir, so I took the hit for you." "I know, I know." Whiteclaw said as a tear rolled down his white fur. Snowbird looked up, and flicked her ears. "You should probably get back to the living world. Its morning." She murmered. Whiteclaw sadly nodded his head, and blinked his eyes.'''

'Snowbird had g''one, and he knew he was back in ThunderClan's warriors den. He sighed, and closed his eyes. He didn't feel like getting up, but he knew he had to soon. He purred as he tucked his nose under his fluffy tail, and fell into a light sleep. He woke up soon, due to Icetail and Redleaf shaking him. "Get up, its sun high." Icetail meowed. Redleaf jumped on Whiteclaw's flank, and told him to get up. "We though you had gone on patrol or something." Redleaf purred. "Then Icetail and I came in here for alittle R&R, and you where still sleeping in your nest! Lazy furball." Redleaf joked. (I'll write more later)'''
