A word from Stendarr
As you may know, this 'Erin Hunter' thinks she knows how the clans were formed. She has even said she has 'made up' our adventures herself! Hey, you, stop laughing. <BR> Well, I'm here to tell you the real story. After all, I am the King of the Stars and the Leader of StarClan. Now, don't go bombarding Shistar with messages. After all, this is a fanfiction- <BR> Hey, who's writing what I say? Anywho, here is the true story of the Clans, after all, Rogues of a feather... flock together!

Prologue
"This is a pleasant place," Crest meowed sarcastically. <BR> Shadow rolled her eyes. "Crest, just be thankful I decided to let you come with me." <BR> Crest chuckled, before being playfully pounced onto by Blaze. <BR> "Guys! Calm down!" meowed Twilight, another one of Shadow's close friends. <BR> Shadow smiled, her black fur shimmering in the dim moonlight. It was almost a full moon, and it was very bright out. <BR> The wind pushed against Shadow's fur, but it was warm. <BR> I wish Greenleaves were like this at home, Shadow thought to herself as she continued into the new and strange land. <BR><BR> Wind glanced up at the sky. The night was calm, and the waters in the gorge beneath her were calm as well. <BR> The she-cat couldn't help but feel uneasy; after all, back where she came from, quiet meant attacks. That was why she had left; to escape the vicious cats that attacked her and her mate day and night. <BR> Wind sighed, remembering the night before she had left... she remembered the large black tom grabbing her precious kit, and running away with him... <BR> Wind shook her head. She sniffed the night air, smelling a new scent; an unfamiliar one. <BR> She turned around, gasping in alarm as she spotted a massive grey tom a few fox-lengths before her. <BR> "What... what are you doing here?" she whispered, quickly. <BR> The tom smiled. "I'm Wolf. Who are you?" <BR><BR> "This looks like a good place to settle," Thunder meowed to his sister, Shell. <BR> Shell nodded, and glanced at the sky, silently. Thunder looked at his paws, guilt flooding over him. <BR> It had been only five moons since Thunder and Shell had been attacked by a mysterious group of cats that had scarred Shell for life. If he had of protected her, perhaps she would be brave enough to speak. She had not spoken a word since the incident... <BR> "I think they've come back..." whispered a faint and squeaky voice. <BR> Thunder took a small pawstep forward, and smiled as he saw two tiny kits huddled up in a small den, their eyes as big as mice. <BR> "P... please, Rust... don't hurt us..." whispered the tiny brown tom-kit, who was standing protectively in front of his sister. <BR> Shell half-smiled, and Thunder chuckled. "Don't worry, little kits. We won't hurt you. I'm Thunder, and this is Shell. What are your names?" <BR> There was a long silence, but the she-kit finally stepped forward to speak. <BR> "I'm Dew... and this is Pine." Dew squeaked, her tiny voice hardly louder than a whisper. <BR> Thunder dipped his head respectfully. "And would you two like to travel with us?" <BR><BR> Winter silently placed his paw in the water. It was warm, and felt good against his wounded paw. <BR> He smiled. The stream made the 'woosh' sound that he was used to. Winter jumped as a tiny little fish touched his paw, and he smiled. <BR> "So there's prey here, too..." Winter muttered, taking a paw-step back. <BR> Before Winter could think of anything else, he was attacked by a silvery-grey she-cat. <BR> The two wrestled in silence by the river, before Winter managed to throw the she-cat off of him and unsheathe his claws. <BR> "Get away from here, River." Winter snarled, barring his teeth. <BR> River hissed. "I'll be back, Winter." <BR> Before Winter could say anything else to River, she bounded off, leaving the white tom alone again. <BR> "What am I going to do with her..." Winter muttered to himself, turning back to the stream once again. <BR><BR> Sky looked up at the massive tree, and with all his might, jumped onto it! <BR> "Another great move by Sky." he smirked to himself, sitting down. <BR> "You mean another pathetic cat barging into Blade's territory." meowed a grey tom, appearing out of what seemed to be nowhere. <BR> Sky gasped, and he could have sworn his heart skipped a beat. <BR> "Who are you?" he meowed softly. <BR> The grey tom rolled his eyes. "Pathetic AND Deaf... I'm Blade!" <BR> Sky nodded, and watched as Blade jumped into the tree, landing beside Sky. <BR> "So, what are you doing here?" Blade meowed, grinning at Sky. <BR> Sky sighed. "The prey at my home dissappeared. So I went north, hoping to find some more prey. And here I am." <BR> Blade nodded. <BR> "Whisper and I were born here." Blade meowed, glancing over at a small den behind him. <BR> "Who?" Sky meowed, and Blade smiled. <BR> "Whisper. She's my sister." <BR> Sky nodded, and looked up at the sky. He got to his paws, and smiled at Blade. <BR> "Would you two like to go further north with me?" he meowed. <BR>
