## Prologue

"SILVERPAW GET BACK HERE!" I heard a light brown cat yell, her name is Spotfeather, and Silverpaw is her apprentice. He was trying to learn how to hunt, but he could never even catch even a little rat. I even tried giving him the slowest rat I could find, but he still couldn't catch that. He always tried making the lamest excuses such as " I'd much rather catch berries they are easier to catch," me and Spotfeather hated yelling at him but a lot of the time we have to. We have to, so he can live and survive, if he can't hunt then he won't be able to eat and then he will starve to death. But today I had to tell Spotfeather to give him a break. We had to have the ceremony for StormFur so he can become an apprentice. But before he could go he had to catch a rat for Frostwing as a present.

## Chapter One

It was the brightest day it had been for over a year, and it was on the perfect day. It was the day When I told my kit Stormkit to get out there. You could see him smiling with his whiskers in place as I smiled back at him.

He walked in the front while me and Leafblow walked behind. His grey and orange calico fur shined in the sunlight when I announced, " Hello everyone, today will be VERY exciting, my own kit will be becoming an apprentice,!" As they jumped up and down screaming "YAY!" I tried calming them down, after they calmed down I continued saying "Purplebreeze may you come you come up here? Thank you so very much. Purplebreeze I would love for you to be the mentor of Stormkit. May you do that?" He sternly replied "Why? Why do *I* have to mentor *him?*"

I almost growled at him but then just calmly replied " Because I said so. So please go take him to guard the border. **NOW**!" I really didn't want to yell at him but I had to, he was disobeying the leader's orders. then I said " The ceremony is over you may now leave, but Frostwing may you come here? Thank you. Frostwing may you go check on Fernspot I think she will have her kits any minute now." and he said in the kindest voice I have ever so heard and replied to me saying " Yes Maplestar I may, but I have a question. It is, what is Leafblows backstory?"

I thought about it for a minute and curiously replied " I actually don't know *he* never told **me**!" and he just then said " That's ok I was just wondering I will go to Fernspot now." And after he left I went to go catch some prey. I encountered a small little bunny and chased it, it took me 5 minutes to catch because I was thinking about what Frostwing said. It never accrued to me that I didn't know Leafblow's backstory.

After I ate I went to the border to talk to Purplebreeze. I told him privately " Purplebreeze Frostwing made me realize that I don't know Leafblows backstory. So I want you to talk to Leafblow for me and find out what it is. Is that ok?" he looked at me with curious eyes and then finally said "Yes that is ok, how is Snowsplash doing?"

I didn't think about that and said " OH thanks for reminding me , me and her scheduled a time to go hunting together!" After that I rushed to the warriors den to find her in the right corner of the cave. I said to her quickyly " Hey lets go hunting now, COME ON!" I thought that might have sounded a bit mean but she replied happily "OH YEAH I forgot I thought I was going to get you!" Then she just followed me down the tall grass and we found a spot where we saw 4 bunnies 2 of them were small while the other 2 rabbits were big.

I caught the big rabbits as she caught the little, and we split it off equally. After that I allowed her in the leader's den to talk with her.
