## Outcast

Lion, Ivy and Dove PoV

Lionblaze sobbed with grief, his tears hitting the grass blades in front of the ruined tunnels.

”What are you crying for? Hollyleaf deserved it.” Jayfeather remarked, no emotion in his blind eyes.

”She was our sister!” Lionblaze roared at Jayfeather.

”She tried to kill me. She left us to be with Sol in ShadowClan. She drained the moonpool. She deserves no grief, sister or not.” Jayfeather hissed to his brother.

”There’s no proof she’s the one that drained the moonpool! She was in grief, she felt left out. Sol took advantage of her, you shouldn’t blame her for it!“ Lionblaze snarled.

”No proof? I smelled her all over the ruined pool. Grieving or not, Hollyleaf had to have some choice in the matter.”

“Your heartless.” Lionblaze sniffed.

Epilogue

Ashfur looked in the lake’s reflection, his anger and heartbreak still burning furiously.

He watches as a cat approaches and sits beside him.

”Your going down tonight. At the gathering, I’ll reveal it all. Don’t think I know Hollyleaf wasn’t the only one.” Ashfur growls to the figure.

”Oh I doubt anything will be revealed.” The shadow whispered.

Ashfur looks at them with confusion, his gray fur began to rise.

He looked down and noticed the cat’s claws were unsheathed.

Before he could run, claws slashed across his throat.

Ashfur’s body fell into the lake, blood spilling across.

The cat washed their paws before walking away, tail moving the ferns aside.

”Nothing will be revealed, and now nobody will know what happened that night.”

Jayfeather starred at Goldenmind with fury in his gaze.

”You lied to me! You never wanted to help! You just wanted to take over the clans!” He hissed to his former mentor.

”We so not wish to take over, Jayfeather. We want to fix the clans. Unite them under peace and justice.” Goldenmind explained calmly.

”Peace and justice? You are turning cats against their clanmates and driving them closer to you! I trusted you. You tricked me. You tricked everybody into thinking you were a StarClan cat.” Jayfeather sniffed, clearly feeling betrayed.

”We didn’t trick anybody. We told them the truth.”

”We?” Jayfeather questioned.

”I am not the only one who seeks vengeance.” Goldenmind hissed at Jayfeather.

”I have done nothing but help and you accuse me of tricking you and manipulating you! You truly are a bitter cat.”

Suddenly several cats emerged out of the trees.

”I guess you should see our true forms without our covers to make you like us more.” A snarling black tom said.

Before Jayfeather’s eyes, all of the normal looking cats transformed into monsters.

Goldenmind seemed to have hundreds of eyes, and death berries rolling out of her mouth, vines strangling her at the neck.

One of the cats there had a crown of claws and teeth digging into his skull, and a second face on the back of his head, a toothy grin spreading eye-to-eye.

Another was a serpent-like creature with three heads, and long fangs coming out of all of its mouths with no eyes.

And the final cat was a crow-like monster with a beak full of needle sharp fangs. He had talons for feet and wings. His eyes seemed to be infinitely deep like an abyss.

Jayfeather slowly backed up.

”You trusted us before. Now you don’t because we no longer lie about how we look? That says a lot about you.” Goldenmind hissed.

”W-what are you?”

”I am Poisonmind, not Goldenmind. That crow is Darkcrow, the Dark Forest’s founder. The one with the crown is Omendream, the one that brought us together. And the snake is Serpenthiss, the first cat who was sent here without leaving StarClan willingly.”

”GET ME OUT OF HERE!” Jayfeather yowled as he awoke.

* Ivy realizes that all along she was the third cat, and commands the hawk to stop but keeps the vines there so White doesn’t kill her.
* Omendream appears in front of Ivy and tells her to kill White or she would be killed.
* Ivy refuses and Omen snarls at her saying how he had always helped her and she should listen to him and not be ungrateful for his help.
* Ivy still refuses and Omen attacks her, but she fights him off and runs, where she bumps into Lionblaze.
* Fire calls a meeting and tells everybody that they are being manipulated by the Dark Forest, but he is met with spits and hisses and is called a liar and that the clans must change.
* Jay realizes all of his clanmates have been turned accept for a few, he gathers Firestar, Longtail, Cinderheart, Brightheart, Cloudtail, Leafpool and Squrrierlflight to go to the portal and fight off the Dark Forest.

## Various Events

Events that happen without an exact timeline to keep track of.

The Shadow Forest:

* Leafpool tells Jay and Lion that they are her and Crowfeather’s kits, but the cat that was supposed to be the third cat didn’t survive the journey back home. They thought it was a gift from StarClan when they found and abandoned kit and StarClan sent Leafpool the power if three prophecy when they found the kit. They took the kit in and assumed it’s place within the prophecy would show, but it never did which is why Holly wasn’t in the prophecy.
