Eye of the Tiger: A New Era

Prologue
The brown tabby cat watched from the boulder as the orange tabby stepped out from the shadows, followed by a black and white tom. Other cats flooded into the clearing. The brown tabby grinned. ThunderClan and WindClan have arrived!

The first tom narrowed his green eyes. "Why have you called us here, Tigerstar?"

Tigerstar grinned. "Well, Firestar, ShadowClan and RiverClan have combined to make TigerClan. Either you join or you die."

Firestar hissed. "We'll never join you, Tigerstar. The for-"

His words were cut off of Tigerstar leaped at Firestar, pinning him down. Firestar struggled, then went limp. I know that trick, kittypet! Instead of loosening his grip, Tigerstar sliced Firestar's neck.

The cats surrounding him gasped, and Tigerstar grinned. Then, feeling movement beneath his paws, he looked down to see Firestar attempting to escape his claws. Seconds later, Firestar's head rolled towards Tallstar, and Tigerstar licked the blood off his claws.

"Well, I suppose ThunderClan has no choice but to join TigerClan now. Darkstripe, you're the new leader."

Whitestorm opened his mouth to protest but closed it as Tigerstar flexed his blood-covered claws.

"And Tallstar," Tigerclaw meowed, "you are too old to lead a clan. Mudclaw, you are WindClan's leader now."

Darkstripe smiled at Tigerstar. "Thank you, Tigerstar. I think ThunderClan will definitely join TigerClan."

"WindClan will as well," Mudclaw said.

Tigerstar grinned. ''Finally! TigerClan has become a reality, and Firestar is dead!''
