Fallenheart's Prophecy: Part 1

Prologue
Many, many years have passed since the battle between the Dark Forest and StarClan...ThunderClan, WindClan, ShadowClan and RiverClan have lost their homes yet again to twolegs, but this time they split for good. Some cats went into different clans, some left for good, and some remained. They formed four different clans, OceanClan, ForestClan, SwiftClan and DarkClan. Years have passed since then, and their descendants today know little of the old clans way back then. Cats now are lucky if they are greeted in a dream by a StarClan cat that lived in the old clans, or even cats in the Dark Forest.

Maybe one day ThunderClan, WindClan, ShadowClan and RiverClan will be rebuilt...maybe they never will. But warriors now hold the thought of those clans in the very back of their hearts...Queens tell kits stories about them...Then those kits grow and tell their kits and so on...Maybe one such cat can figure out what happened to the old clans, and maybe have the luck to meet one.

Chapter 1: Fallenkit
"Are you sure this is a good idea, Fallenkit?" Shadekit squeaked. Fallenkit's sister seemed unsure about sneaking out of camp during dawn.

"Stop being such a coward! Breezefang says that it's beautiful by the Oceanside!" Fallenkit mewed, dashing out of the camp entrance that was surrounded by reeds. OceanClan's camp was made on an island just off the shore, and it sloped upward in a slight cliff, where the elder's den and nursery were located. Since the island was so big, part of it was made for hunting mice and squirrels that housed in the mini-forest.

Shadekit followed hesitantly, watching Fallenkit's every move and sniffing the air every so often.

Fallenkit stopped in her tracks, "Do you see that?" she breathed, staring at something in the distance off the coast. Shadekit froze and shook her head and began to shake.

"What?" she asked.

"This!" Fallenkit yowled, immediately leaping onto her sister, and began batting at Shadekit's face, claws sheathed.

"Hey!" Shadekit squeaked, shoving Fallenkit off, "Stop being so loud or the whole clan will hear us!"

"They're not going to hear us, they're all sleeping! I think..." Fallenkit's purple eyes gleamed with amusement as Shadekit smoothed her ruffled fur.

"Actually, the dawn patrol could hear you," Brackenpelt mewed, stepping out from behind a tree with Troutwhisker, Grayfur and Russettail behind him.

"What are you doing out of camp?" Grayfur asked, coming forward.

"Told you someone would hear or see us," Shadekit said plainly.

"Er...We just wanted to see the coast..." Fallenkit mewed, telling half of the truth.

"You shouldn't be out alone, it's dangerous," Russettail added. Fallenkit recalled how her mother, Hollyfeather, had told her and Shadekit about Russettail's son, Redpaw. Redpaw had been slaughtered by a DarkClan cat, one who wasn't afraid to cross water. Another cat before Fallenkit and Shadekit, Skystorm, had been attacked by a wandering wolf. Fear coursed through Fallenkit has she remembered that wolves roamed the large island too, along with birds that preyed upon anything.

"Sorry..." Fallenkit said, tail and ears drooping. Russettail picked her up by the scruff and Troutwhisker got Shadekit.

"Take them back to camp, me and Grayfur can patrol the rest of the territory, it's not much." Brackenpelt ordered. Fallenkit watched as his ginger tail flicked and then disappeared as Brackenpelt ran through the bushes. -

"Found them by the shoreline," Russettail mewed to Hollyfeather as Fallenkit's mother asked where her kits had been.

"By the shoreline? Glad you found them or else Fallenkit might have been not-afraid to try swimming!" Hollyfeather growled. Fallenkit sat in silence, Is it wrong that I'm not afraid of anything?

Russettail walked off to the fresh-kill pile, and Hollyfeather just stared at her daughters.

"Why would you go all the way to the coast? I know our territory extends beyond and out to the mainland, but you never leave camp unless you are with warriors!" Hollyfeather hissed.

Fallenkit leaped to her paws, "Well I'm sorry but you didn't expect to have kits that behaved all the time, did you? Every kit at least does one thing wrong!" she snapped. She spotted Sunstar padding towards the nursery, ''Great StarClan! I hope she didn't hear me arguing with my mother!''

"Don't be harsh on her, Hollyfeather. Fallenkit has a point," the golden she-cat mewed, resting her tail on the black kit's shoulder.

"What do you mean?" Hollyfeather asked, the tone of anger still in her voice.

"When I was a kit, me and my brothers would go and leave camp unnoticed sometimes. We even broke the warrior code twice as apprentices, but once I was almost a warrior, I lost that kit-like behavior. Everyone does," Sunstar explained. Foxfang and Sunpelt glanced over upon hearing their sister speak of them.

"Told you!" Fallenkit growled, shooting an icy glare at Hollyfeather. Her mother just rolled her blue eyes and herded Shadekit into the nursery. Fallenkit stared after them, then bounded off toward where the apprentices were gathering.

"Hi, Fallenkit! What's up?" Lakepaw greeted.

Fallenkit shrugged, "Nothing much. Hollyfeather got mad at me because I sneaked out of camp this morning. She didn't get mad at Shadekit though..."

"Why'd you sneak out of camp?" Hawkpaw asked, the dark tabby left Mosspaw to see what Fallenkit was talking about.

"Because I wanted to see what was past camp. Have any of you been onto the rest of our mainland territory?" Fallenkit mewed.

"We all have, our mentors take us on a tour of the whole territory, not just the island!" Tigerpaw said happily. He kept pacing around the circle of apprentices.

"Why's he so happy?" Fallenkit whispered to Lakepaw.

"His warrior ceremony is today, he can't seem to wait!" Lakepaw replied. Fallenkit could see why Tigerpaw was so excited, her own apprentice ceremony wasn't until a moon.

"Looks like I have to go," Hawkpaw mewed upon seeing Wolfclaw signaling to her.

"Me too," Mosspaw and Ravenpaw said at the same time, staring at each other before breaking away laughing.

"See you later," Lakepaw mewed, poking Fallenkit.

Now I'm alone...Hollyfeather won't allow me in the nursery, the warriors don't want to talk to kits...

"Breezefang!" she yowled happily, seeing her father pad into camp with Stoneshadow, Redfeather and Rockpaw behind him. They were all carrying prey, mice, squirrels, birds and fish. Breezefang dropped his prey on the fresh-kill pile and bounded to his kit.

"Haven't seen you in a few days! Why are you out of the nursery?" he purred. Fallenkit didn't want to tell him, but then again, she wasn't going to hide anything.

"Me and Shadekit sneaked out of camp, now Hollyfeather won't allow me into the nursery, only Shadekit," she mewed hesitantly. Breezefang's joyful expression changed into annoyance and anger.

"She's singling you out...I'll have a word with her, don't worry!" Breezefang mewed.

Fallenkit felt better that someone besides Sunstar was on her side.

Chapter 2: Apprenticeship
"Fallenkit and Shadekit have reached the age of six moons and it is time for them to be apprenticed. From now until you are a warrior, you will be called Fallenpaw and Shadepaw," Sunstar announced.

"Icestorm, you are ready for an apprentice, she will be Fallenpaw. Timberpelt taught you how to be an excellent fighter, I hope you will pass on those skills to Fallenpaw," Fallenpaw padded forward and touched noses with the white she-cat and then stepped back.

"Sandflight, you are too ready for your first apprentice. The death of your mentor, Darkfur, was tragic, but he taught you the art of stealth and battle, I hope you will pass that on to Shadepaw. And I hope you can toughen her up a bit too," Sunstar mewed.

"Fallenpaw! Shadepaw! Fallenpaw! Shadepaw!" OceanClan cheered. Fallenpaw noticed that Hollyfeather only shouted out Shadepaw's name. ''She hates me for no reason! What did I do wrong?'' -

"What's first?" Fallenpaw asked Icestorm excitedly.

"I figured I'd take you out to know all of the territory!" Icestorm mewed.

"Great!" Fallenpaw yowled, running behind her mentor as she dashed out of camp.

"As you know, there is only water for many many fox-lengths behind camp. But when you cross over to the mainland, our territory extends for a long distance, bordering SwiftClan and DarkClan," Icestorm explained. The white she-cat flicked her tail towards the ocean, then turned towards the direction of mainland.

"Are we going all the way to the border?" Fallenpaw asked, her deep purple eyes shining bright.

"Yes," Icestorm replied, taking off again without warning. The trees didn't run very far down like Fallenpaw thought, only about 30 fox-lengths. They came to a stopping point in the sand where water washed up on the banks.

My first swim! Fallenpaw thought as she leaped into the cold ocean water. It felt good on her fur after being in the newleaf sun, and she was almost sad to leave it as her paws walked her onto land again. She shook her pelt and continued on to catch up with Icestorm.

"Where are we going now?" she asked.

"DarkClan's border. It's dangerous, so if I say to run to camp, then run! Don't worry about me, okay?" Icestorm mewed. Fallenpaw nodded her head and followed her across the rough territory. She had to leap up of mini-cliffs and scramble over rocks at some points. Luckily, tall grass covered it so her pads wouldn't get cut up.

"How much farther?" Fallenpaw asked, stopping to catch her breath.

"Not much, keep going!" Icestorm mewed from up ahead. Fallenpaw rolled her eyes and kept going before Icestorm's warning came.

"Three enemy warriors! Get low, and get back to camp, now!" Icestorm hissed under her breath.

"No, I will stay and fight!" Fallenpaw growled.

"You don't know how to fight and I'm not having my apprentice killed on the first day!" Icestorm argued. Fallenpaw just stood still and watched the DarkClan warriors march forward. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
