*Leafpool welcomes the reader, telling them that Firestar had told her to expect them.
*She explains that Clan cats look after each other and whilst it may seem like the rules are strict, they seem to a forest-born cat as natural as breathing.
*She takes the reader back through the ages to see how the warrior code began.
======
Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may be allowed friendships with cats from other Clans, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan.
"The Beginning of the Warrior Code":
*Ryewhisker of WindClan and his mate Cloudberry, daughter of RiverClan's leader Emberstar, are meeting each other.
**It is revealed that Cloudberry is expecting Ryewhisker's kits.
*RiverClan has accused WindClan of stealing fish from their territory.
**Ryewhisker states that this is untrue because WindClan has no interest in eating fish.
***Despite Cloudberry's concerns, Ryewhisker is confident that things will work out, even saying that their kits, being half RiverClan and half WindClan, will help bring the Clans together.
*WindClan launches an attack on RiverClan after the latter accuses them of stealing fish again.
**Ryewhisker defends Cloudberry from one of the WindClan warriors, Hawkfur, stating that he will not let his kits be killed by his own Clanmates.
**Ryewhisker is then attacked by a RiverClan cat and dies.
*During the full moon following the battle Duststar, leader of WindClan calls a meeting at Fourtrees and states that Ryewhisker would not have died had he not been attached to Cloudberry.
*He makes a rule that from now on all cats must remain loyal only to their Clans, forming the first law of the warrior code.
*During this same meeting Hollystar of ShadowClan points out that the Clans would have less connection and questions how they would know important things that could affect all Clans, so Birchstar of SkyClan suggests that the five Clans meet in peace at Fourtrees during the full moon, beginning the tradition of Gatherings.
======
Do not hunt or trespass on another Clan's territory.
"Finders Keepers":
*Three seasons after the first Gathering and the beginning of the warrior code, the five Clans have gathered at Fourtrees once again.
*There is an argument between Whitestar, leader of ThunderClan and Brindlestar, leader of ShadowClan.
**Leaf-bare has resulted in so little food in ShadowClan territory that the warriors have resorted to hunting in ThunderClan territory.
***The ThunderClan cats have driven the intruders away as there is barely enough prey for themselves.
*As the argument becomes more and more heated, there is creaking noise overhead.
**A massive tree branch crashes to the ground between the ThunderClan and ShadowClan factions.
*To the amazement of the leaders, not a single cat is injured.
*Stonestar, a leader of WindClan, states that the tree branch is a sign from StarClan and proposes the second law of the warrior code, that trespassing in another Clan's territory is forbidden.
**This is accepted by the other Clan leaders and despite an insulting remark from Brindlestar, the meeting ends peacefully.
"Hunting Fish!":
*The young ThunderClan warriors Dappletail and White-eye attempt to catch some fish to see what they taste like.
*Both cats nearly end up drowning when they fall in the river.
*They are rescued by Hailstar, leader of RiverClan and his warrior Owlfur.
*Pinestar, ThunderClan's leader, and his deputy Sunfall arrive on the scene.
*Owlfur suggests that the two young warriors eat the fish that White-eye caught.
*Both find that fish tastes disgusting and Pinestar reminds them that certain cats hunt certain prey for a reason.
*Hailstar decides that nearly drowning is punishment enough for the two young cats.
**As they return home Dappletail remarks that RiverClan can have all the fish in the world as far as she cares.
======
Elders and kits must be fed before apprentices and warriors.
"A Mystical Battle":
*A young RiverClan warrior named Splashheart is fishing by Sunningrocks, which at the time is part of RiverClan territory.
*He is joined by his former mentor Reedshine.
**They share a fish and Splashheart spots an attack patrol from ThunderClan.
*Reedshine leaves and returns with their leader Darkstar and several warriors.
*The two Clans engage in battle
**Reedshine is badly injured.
*The RiverClan cats retreat temporarily but Darkstar refuses to consider defeat and urges her Clanmates to keep fighting, which they do.
*During the battle Splashheart is joined and aided by a she-cat named Aspentail.
*The ThunderClan warriors are defeated and retreat.
*Aspentail reveals herself as a StarClan ancestor who once fought for RiverClan while she was alive.
*At the battle's conclusion Darkstar declares that the victorious warriors will catch prey on the return journey to give to the elders and kits, declaring that this battle was fought and won for their sake.
**Splashheart agrees with this and vows to become leader of RiverClan, after which he will make the third law of the warrior code: elders and kits must be fed first.
"A Dark Path Chosen":
*Longtail and Darkstripe of ThunderClan are sent on a hunting mission to Snakerocks. It is leaf-bare and the Clan is fighting off a greencough epidemic.
**Many cats are ill; one in particular, Poppydawn, is so weak she can barely eat.
*The two warriors reach Snakerocks, Darkstripe complaining the whole way, and Longtail catches a squirrel.
*Darkstripe convinces a reluctant Longtail to share the squirrel with him so that they will have more energy to hunt.
*The two cats manage to catch some prey, but upon their return they hear that Poppydawn has just died.
*Longtail is frightened and racked with guilt, but Darkstripe callously states that Poppydawn was old and that the weak cats can go if it means that the warriors survive.
*He then threatens to tell the Clan that it was Longtail who insisted on eating the squirrel and Longtail agrees to remain silent.
*As he carries some fresh-kill over to the pile Longtail senses Poppydawn's spirit nearby and apologizes silently, but the only reply is Too late.
======
Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.
"Mouse Games":
*Two ShadowClan kits, Driftkit and his sister Fallowkit, are playing with a dead mouse one leaf-bare when they are scolded by the Clan deputy Sunnytail.
**The mouse was the last piece of fresh-kill in the camp.
*The kit's mother Splashnose tries to defend their actions but the kits receive a second, less harsh scolding from the Clan leader Lilystar.
*Suddenly an owl swoops down on them.
**The other cats flee but Driftkit is too scared to move.
**Amazingly, the owl takes the mouse he was playing with instead of the kit.
*Lilystar interprets this as a sign from StarClan, that they give prey and can take it away. She decides that at the next Gathering she will propose the rule that all prey is to be eaten, which becomes the fourth law of the warrior code.
======
A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
"The Queens Unite":
*A WindClan queen Daisytail is watching her son Specklepaw training as an apprentice.
*There is conflict between WindClan and ShadowClan and every cat is preparing for battle.
*Daisytail cannot bear to watch her son, who is barely out of kithood, fight and possibly die in battle, so she makes a plan to prevent this from happening.
*Some time later, both the WindClan and ShadowClan cats are about to fight each other when Daisytail, her friend Hawkfoot, and a ShadowClan queen named Oakleaf step in to stop the battle.
**The queens argue that it is wrong to have kits go into battle before they are ready.
*Hazelstar of WindClan and Blizzardstar of ShadowClan agree to implement Daisytail's proposal, that all kits should be six moons to be made apprentices. This proposal is later included as the fifth law of the warrior code.
"The Smallest Warrior":
*During the battle to drive WindClan out of the forest, the young ShadowClan apprentice Badgerpaw, who is only three moons old, is mortally wounded.
**This is because Brokenstar, ShadowClan's leader has begun his brutal practice of training kits like Badgerpaw as apprentices before they are ready.
*His mentor Flintfang drags him away from the battle and comforts the dying apprentice, assuring him that StarClan will welcome him as a warrior and that his mother would be proud of him.
*With his dying breath Badgerpaw asks that his warrior name be Badgerfang in honor of his mentor, then he passes on.
*A guilt-ridden Flintfang vows to honor the warrior code and never again train an apprentice that is too young.
======
Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
"A Night of Listening":
*Meadowpelt, the medicine cat of RiverClan, is continually frustrated by the antics of four young warriors Snaketooth, Molewhisker, Nettlepad, and Lightningpelt, who are always daring each other to do stupid and dangerous things.
**In their latest escapade Snaketooth broke his leg climbing one of the Great Oaks.
*Later on Meadowpelt overhears the four young warriors planning to jump across the gorge for their next dare.
**Concerned by this, he informs his leader Troutstar that he plans to ask StarClan for a way to teach these young warriors how to be responsible.
*At the Moonstone, Meadowpelt receives a vision; in his dream he is sitting in the middle of camp listening and watching Clan warriors going about their responsibilities and duties.
**This gives him an idea, a night of listening.
*On the night after Meadowpelt's return, Lightningpelt, Molewhisker, and Nettlepad are ordered to stay awake and watch over the Clan as the others sleep.
*During the night the Clan is awakened by the warning of a fox attack.
*Nettlepad remains behind to guard the camp while the other two chase the fox off.
*Meadowpelt is pleased and relieved to see that this night of listening has proved successful; the young warriors are beginning to act more responsibly.
*He then asks Troutstar to add a night of listening as a new law to the warrior code, beginning the tradition of one-night vigils for young warriors.
"Squirrelflight's Words of Wisdom":
*Squirrelflight gives the reader advice on how to get through the warrior vigil in the new ThunderClan camp.

======
A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
"Second in Command":
*Featherstar of WindClan appoints Acorntail deputy after her old deputy, Pebblefur, died from an agonizing lump in his belly.
**Many cats are not happy with this choice, especially Morningcloud's apprentice, Quickpaw, who expected Morningcloud to be made deputy herself.
*From the start, the Clan's lack of faith in Acorntail's ability is confirmed; he mistakenly chooses three cats who have already hunted for a hunting patrol and nearly causes an unprovoked attack on a ThunderClan border patrol because of a dead rabbit on the ThunderClan side of the border.
*Ashamed by his lack of ability and bad decision-making, Acorntail pleads with Featherstar to appoint a new deputy, but Featherstar remains firm in her decision. However she decides that she should have given Acorntail an apprentice so he could become accustomed to giving orders and being responsible for others.
**Acorntail then asks to be given Pricklekit as his future apprentice; in exchange he will remain as Featherstar's deputy, to which she agrees.
*Featherstar also decides to later incorporate this as the seventh law of the warrior code.
======
A deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies or retires.
"Follow My Leader":
*Beechstar, leader of SkyClan is dying; before doing so, he appoints his son Mothpelt as leader and asks him to attack RiverClan. He believes that SkyClan must reinforce their strength in the conflict and that RiverClan will not be satisfied with his death. Mothpelt, a brave and reckless warrior, heeds his father's last words to the letter; the problem is that the river is swollen to twice its size from recent rains.
*Robinwing, one of the senior warriors, attempts to stop Mothpelt from leading his Clan to certain death but the young leader refuses to listen and half the Clan follows him into the flooded river.
*SkyClan cats are not good swimmers and soon they are forced to cling to rocks in the stream to prevent themselves from being swept away. Robinwing and Maplewhisker, the Clan deputy, organize the other half of the Clan into rescue parties to salvage the other cats from the river.
*Afterwards, Robinwing convinces Maplewhisker to take over the leadership of SkyClan.
**She reluctantly accepts with the support of the other warriors.
*Later, Robinwing adds the eighth law of the warrior code: the Clan deputy succeeds the old leader.

"A Sign from StarClan":
*ShadowClan has recently lost its leader Snowstar and the deputy Brightwhisker is sick with whitecough and unable to journey to the Moonstone.
*Redscar, the Clan medicine cat insists that an uncooperative Brightwhisker needs to rest and get better before she can become leader or appoint a new deputy.
*Tragedy strikes the next day; Brightwhisker's whitecough had developed into greencough during the night causing her to die in her sleep. Redscar, the sole remaining authority, calls the Clan together to select a new deputy.
**Two candidates are chosen, the brave and aggressive warrior Jumpfoot, who has the support of the other warriors, and the more passive but equally brave Mossfire, who is voted in by the queens.
*Neither cat is willing to back down so Jumpfoot declares that the two rivals will fight, and the winner will be leader.
*The battle rages out of control resulting in both Jumpfoot and Mossfire dying from their wounds.
*Mossfire's sister Flowerstem is stunned by what has just happened but she swiftly takes control, organizing hunting patrols while Redscar retires to his den.
*That night the old ShadowClan leader Snowstar appears to Redscar in a dream, stating that he must pick ShadowClan's new leader, and that a new deputy must be selected as soon as possible so that tragedies similar to that of Jumpfoot and Mossfire can be avoided.
*Redscar selects Flowerstem and in order to convince the Clan, he places the stem of a snowdrop flower in the camp, proclaiming it to be an omen from StarClan.
*Flowerstem accepts leadership of the Clan and Redscar tells her to make a new addition to the warrior code: a new deputy must be selected at moonhigh, at the next gathering.
======
A Gathering of all Clans is held at the full moon during a truce that lasts for the night. There shall be no fighting among Clans at this time.
"The Vanishing Moon":

*Finchstar of ThunderClan is the first to notice that the ShadowClan cats are still missing.

*The other leaders leap down to help their Clanmates and Finchstar is suddenly confronted by the ShadowClan leader Ripplestar.

**She accuses SkyClan of spying and warns to tell her leader Lionstar about what happened.
*Poppycloud and Mottlepaw return to camp and tell the Clan leader Rowanstar of the incident.
*The next day Lionstar, Greeneyes, and another warrior enter the SkyClan camp to complain to Rowanstar.
*Poppycloud suggests that marking and patrolling borders should be part of the warrior code.
**Rowanstar is intrigued by the idea but Lionstar and Greeneyes are dismissive and turn to leave.
*Rowanstar decides to put Poppycloud's idea to the other Clan leaders at the next Gathering and let them decide.
**Lionstar leaves, warning the SkyClan leader that if the idea is accepted then he will have the right to attack any SkyClan cat that crosses the border with impunity.
*It is not stated in the story but Poppycloud's idea is instated as the eleventh law of the warrior code.

Graywing awakens and tells her leader Ivystar that she is taking Brindleclaw and Foxwhisker on a patrol.
*After searching the riverbank, they find the three bodies of the WindClan kits and recover them.
