The Blurb
'''While change is great, beware! Darkness waits...'''

Everything is changing. The Clans (GuestClan, RockClan, LivingClan and IslandClan) don't know where to turn next. RockClan is getting more sinister and GuestClan is keeping a secret that could change the way the Clans see the world. Meanwhile, IslandClan is fighting battles...more than necessary and LivingClan is suffering more than ever since the Great Move. Overall, everyone is getting more protective as the days go by. But when a warrior from RockClan and the medicine cat from GuestClan get together, their plan could literally alter the forest.

Chapter One
A cream colored tom crept inro the clearing silently. A rustle came from behind him and he spun around, expecting a rival Clan member. Everyone was too cozy lately and he was always on his paws. The rustle came again and the tom pounced on the bushes. His paws came down on a vole. He had been on a hunting patrol but left the rest of his party by themselves, this tom hunts alone. This time, the branches above him swayed and he looked up expectantly, waiting for something to jump down at him. When he saw nothing, it puzzled him. Was he going crazy?

"I believe this is the right place to settle," came a rumble from behind him.

"Yes Thornstar, but I still can't believe that GuestClan was actually right," declared another voice.

"Why are you surprised Spottedhead?" the cat called Thornstar questioned.

"Well, it wasn't Shadowstar who warned us or Redheart," Spottedhead began. "It was that excuse for a warrior."

"Ah yes, now I remember," Thornstar replied quickly. "What was her name again?"

"Bramblesky," the cream colored tom said, jumping out of the bushes.

"Well well well," growled the leopard she-cat. "If it isn't the mangy RockClan leader."

The tom shuffled his paws, sheathing and unsheathing his claws in and out. Finally, he lifted one paw and sniffed it.

"It isn't my fault if you hate RockClan," the leader scoffed.

"Yellowstar, this isn't the time or place!" Thornstar snarled.

"I don't see you taking control of your doubtful deputy," Yellowstar jeered.

That did it, Spottedhead leapt on top of Yellowstar, claws unsheathed. She growled and sunk her claws in but before she could do much more damage, Thornstar pulled her off.

"Spottedhead," Thornstar glared at the she-cat before turning to Yellowstar. "Escort Yellowstar back to the dumpster."

Spottedhead looked mutinous but obeyed. The three cats turned and walked back to the dumpster where the cats were sheltering for the time being. When they returned, they saw Shadowstar (the GuestClan leader) and Icestar (the LivingClan leader) waiting for them to return.

"Oh good," Shadowstar said. "You found Yellowstar."

"Yeah," shouted an IslandClan warrior. "A joyful day for us all!"

A couple of apprentices snickered but Yellowstar silenced them with a growl. As soon as everyone was gathered, the meeting began. Shadowstar beckoned a young tortoiseshell she-cat up to the front.

"As you all know, Bramblesky here had a vision for leading us here to these new grounds. We have left the pond behind us for good because of those terrible dogs."

"We are glad that we have found a new home and let us give thanks to CloudClan for that communication," added Icestar.

"And let us think of everyone who died back home for us," Thornstar commented.

After a moment of silence, Yellowstar meowed, "Leaders and deputies meet with me."

Thornstar nodded and instantly leapt off the dumpster, leaving Spottedhead with a sour expression. Icestar and Shadowstar exchanged a "well-what-choice-do-we-have" look and followed him. Meanwhile, Yellowstar was glancing around for his most trusted deputy. Finally, Scarclaw was spotted racing towards the dumpster with a determined look on his face. Yellowstar reached him first.

"Scarclaw, what happened?" he demanded.

"I found something perfect for the Clans," Scarclaw panted.

"Don't tell me you're getting soft too!" Yellowstar spat and stalked away towards the others, leaving Scarclaw with a confused expression in his eyes.

Yellowstar despised all the Clans for getting so close during the Great Move. There was four Clans in the pond area and there'll be four Clans here as well. If he saw anything funny business, well they'd have to report to him first!

"Come! I have found something grand!"

"How do we know you're telling the truth?" Spottedhead meowed.

"Because I rank higher than you, so move it Spotty."

Spottedhead glared at him while everyone else followed and she had no choice but to follow.
