It is a cold new-leaf night, you are returning from a long evening patrol with ur friends, you look up at the night sky and start to wonder ''what will StarClan have in store for us this time?''. You walk into the warriors den, your paws feelings sore as if you fell and broke them. Your name is WhisperLeap, a warrior of ShadowClan, you're a simple minded genderfluid tom who really enjoys the starry night.
You lay on the moss bed with your fellow clanmates, your best friend laying along side you as you both fall deep asleep. As morning comes, you wake up to the medicine cat yelling, curious enough, you walk out into the clearing. Once the medicine cat spots you, she runs up to you and starts rambling, ''WhisperLeap!'' she shouted, you look at her with a confused face. ''Is everything alright, OnyxClaw?'' you ask as you tilt your head. ''StarClan has spoken! A warrior who flys across the night sky will signify the start of a new leadership!'' she sounded a bit scared but excited at the same time. ''A new leadership?'' another cat asks from the back of the clearing. ''StarClan must be mistaken.'' The tom stood up and walked over to you. ''Ah hello, OwlFlight.'' you roll your eyes, not happy to see his presence.
"Hello WhisperLeap." The tom smirked.
You ponder the thought of this warrior, such an entitled tom he is. "I see you have received a prophecy from StarClan, well be mindful, we already have enough clans in this forest." OwlFlight looked down at the smaller medicine cat. "You think that is but, we have SkyClan OwFlight." You spoke up, hoping you at least helped the smaller she-cat with this selfish tom. "But that doesn't mean we need more WhisperLeap." He said, walking over to you with a sly grin. "Whatever OwlFlight, You're only this way because ShadeStar dislikes you." You give him a sarcastic smile. OwlFlight scoffed, walking away from you with a death glance. "Thank you WhisperLeap, oh speaking of which, i was just about to request you about a herb patrol? i need some warriors to help hunt while i'm out gathering more herbs." OnyxClaw Looked up at you with a simple smile. "Of course, i'll get BarkSong to set up a patrol for us." You smiled, the old she-cat giving you a purr of acceptance before trotting off to her den.
You walk over to shade rock, seeing as BarkSong sat upon it with a bored look.
"Hey BarkSong! OnyxClaw is requesting a herb patrol for today." You say, looking up at the Deputy.
"Of course, mind if you lead the patrol?" BarkSong says, his face lighting up as he sat up.
"Sure thing! just get some warriors in and we'll set off."
"Alright." he says, hopping off the rock to get in front of it.
"All cats old enough to hunt gather around for patrols!" You hear the Deputy shout.
"WhisperLeap will lead a herb and hunting patrol for OnyxClaw and we need five of you to go along." He said, you see his dark brown fur shining from the new-leaf sun.
"VultureSkull, StoneYowl, HoneySlip, HallowBurr and...OwlFlight. You all are on hunting and WhisperLeap will herb hunt with OnyxClaw." You frown as you hear OwlFlights name, "better than nothing." you think.
You all set up near the entrance, leaving at once since you didn't have all day. Everyone separates into two groups, You, OnyxClaw and HallowBurr go on a herb hunt, OwlFlight, VultureSkull and StoneYowl go on hunting.
You all walk along the border for any scent of enemies or dogs, while that you also look out for any herbs, mainly borage for the queens.
"Hey WhisperLeap?" OnyxClaw calls you, you snap out of your scent trance and look down at the smaller she-cat.
"Yes OnyxClaw?" You ask. "So about that prophecy i said this morning, its true, whoever StarClan picks i know it will be you." She smiled at you, looking back down so she doesn't fall and trip over anything.
"Yeah but i doubt so, StarClan must have a better warrior to pick." You say, almost blushing at the she-cats words, you wonder what's going on in the clumsy yet stubborn felines mind.
The sun reached it peak in the sky, you all head back to camp with plenty of herbs and fresh-kill.
You walk over to the warriors den to have a small nap, you then pass out like a little kit who had to much milk from their mothers tummy.
You suddenly awake from your nap, but...you never actually woke up.
You found yourself in a dark forest, looking around until you spot a familiar face.
With stupid curiosity, you see yourself, looking down you see another familiar cat below your duplicate self.
"ek...ek.." You try speak, nothing came out but tiny squeaks.
The duplicate of you began to charge towards you, you then jolt awake to realize it was already night.
Reluctantly, you get up from your nest, heading out into the clearing with heavy paws.
"Let all cats old enough to stalk the shady bracken gather around shade rock for a clan meeting!" you hear ShadeStar yowl, you wondered what was wrong for there to be a meeting so soon.
"Our medicine cat, OnyxClaw, Has shared a prophecy with us and as the saying went.."A warrior who flies across the night sky will signify our new leadership."..OnyxClaw has caught sight of this warrior and she will announce the warrior who was chosen by StarClan." He spoke, his voice louder than your own.
"StarClan has given me a name for this new leadership, this warrior shall travel until he or she has found a good place for a territory." She paused. "Along with RiverClan, WindClan, And ThunderClan warriors, they all will find new territory to set their marks and continue with their own sort of leadership, remaking the warrior code and related laws of the forest...." Her voice trailed off, taking a moment to say her next line. "The warrior StarClan has chosen was our brightest and bravest warrior...WhisperLeap, you have been chosen to set on a journey to start a new life elsewhere." You look at the she-cat with shock, you didn't know how to lead a clan nor any cats at all. "M-me?- But-" You try to make an excuse, you knew this is what StarClan has chose for you.
"You and three other warriors from the other clans shall set off to start a new life, you will leave at dawn tomorrow." OnyxClaw spoke, her eyes blankly looking down at you as she felt sympathy for you as a very young warrior.
You nodded reluctantly before letting out a sigh. "For all that has been said, you all may rest. Clan is dismissed." You hear the leader speak, you walk off to the warriors den with a upsetting look, you know you cant protest against StarClans wishes...
