A world with out clans is a sad thing. Where there once where proud cats that called themselves WARRIORS! Are now just a shadow of a memory. No one knows what happened to these brave clans who put there clans before themselves and gave there lives to protect them. Some cats think it's just a story for kits who want to believe there was a time when four clans of brave, strong, fierce, swift cats once ruled the forest's in the area. Some even think they have stumbled upon what was once there camps. A few of the cats that stumble upon these hidden camps wonder what it would be like to live in a clan and wish that the clans where still around.
Among all the rouges and loners remain a large handful of cats that where once clan cats. A few where just kittens when the clans where destroyed a few where apprentices, and even fewer where warriors. And one of these cats was the leader of Thunderclan. She is old and tired. But she misses the days when she knew that when she grew old she would be taken care of. The day when the clans where destroyed are burned into her mind.
-Flashback-
Dovefeather was three years old. After Brambleclaw was killed in battle Firestar had chosen her to be his deputy. But only a year had passed before a huge battle broke out between Shadowclan and Thunderclan. Firestar had bean on his remaining life and Dovefeather had tried to talk Firestar into staying at camp. But he refused to hear any of it and led his clan into battle. The battle was long and fierce and many died in the battle on both sides.
While Dovefeather battled Oakfur Firestar was battling Blackstar. After a long struggle she became pinned under the Shadowclan cat. She felt hist teeth sink into her throat and fear filled her. Just as she thought she was finished she heard Cloudtail scream Firestar's name. She looked over to see Blackstar deal a final blow to Firestar in slow motion it seemed he fell and did not move. In rage she kicked Oakfur in the stomach with her back paws with all her remaining strength and ran to Firestar. Tears began to well up in her eyes. Firestar was dead. Soon anger took over and she launched herself at Blackstar. Pinning him to the ground she sank her teeth into his throat.Dovefeather could see the panic in the old cats eyes as he lost one life after another. Until his remaining three life's where gone. Stepping back Dovefeather walked over to Firestar. She could hear a Shadowclan cat yowl for his clan to retreat. Thunderclan had won the battle. But at what price? Calling out to her clan she called for them to collect there dead and help the injured back to camp.
After dragging there dead and helping there injured back to camp. They mourned. They had lost Firestar, Brightheart, Leafpaw, Berrynose and Squirrelflight in the battle. Two days later Graystripe died from his injuries. The clan mourned for many days. But life went on. The queens kitted, the elders where grouchy. Other than the loss of many loved ones nothing changed. Dovefeather received her nine lives and became a leader like no other. She made Thunderclan strong and proud. Though they didn't get rid of any of there non clan born cats. The did not bring any more in. Dovestar wanted to make Thunderclan strong again.
After two years of leadership things where going great. Dovestar still had all nine of her lives. Food was plentiful even in leafbare. There had bean very little sickness. Dovestar went out hunting with her mate Nightclaw. She and Nightclaw had kits that where a moon old. But She had three other queens that had bean helping her take care of Sunkit, Moonkit and Snowkit. All three where girls and they where barely a moon old. Finally they returned with three mice each. Things where a happy time.
But everything changed the next day. The clan was awoken by the sound of twolegs. Dozens of them. They had small dens with bars as the door to keep the cats in. The where grabbing as many as they could. Dovestar ran out of the nursery. She held Snowkit while Nightclaw had grabbed Moonkit. They where trying to get to safety. Her sister Snowpelt had grabbed Sunkit. She heard her sister scream and stopped in her tracks and turned around. Dovestar saw one of the twolegs grab her sister by the back leg and push her into one of the dens. Snowkit was shoved into another one. A tortured scream escaped her as she tried to run back and help them. But her mate stopped her. Nightclaw convinced her there was no way to save them.So they continued to run. In the end they where the only four to escape the attack. All around the humans attacked each clan. Only a handful of cats had bean able to escape. Though's who survived tried to find any survivors of the attack. The few they found grouped together and vowed to protect one another.
-Back To The Present-
Dovestar sighed. She went by Dovefeather now. She did not want to attract any unwanted attention. Nightclaw had passed away three years ago. And her kits where no longer kits. Moonkit was not Mooneyes and Snowkit was now Snowfeather. Maybe one day they could bring back the clans that once rules this area.
