Warriors: The Spirit of The River #1 Rise

Chapter 4

A/N: Mousepoppy ^ ok, this will now be told through perspective of cats other than the main cats. Some of them will be from other clans. So if there are names you haven't heard of, now you know why.

Waveclaw came back from hunting. The water clinged to his soggy pelt, but he didn't mind. At least he had a catch. The big fish hung from his mouth.

As he padded into riverclan's camp, a few cats congratulated him on his catch. He set it down on the prey pile, hoping it could possibly feed a few cats. He took pride in his catch.

He saw willowsplash, the medicine cat, padding up to him. Willowsplash whispered in his ear,"I need to see you in my den." Waveclaw nodded and padded towards his den. The strong smell of herbs made his nose twitch in uncomfort.

"What do you need me for, willowsplash?" He said. Willowsplash sat down, and so did he. "Waveclaw, I have received a prophecy." "What's it about?" He questioned.

"When the sun dies, the moon will rise, and all will come to an end, unless fire, darkness, waves, and sky come together." Willowsplash murmured.

"What does this have to do with me?" Waveclaw asked. "You're one of the cats, Waveclaw."

~~~~~

Shadowheart padded into the warrior's den. He was extremely tired. Many parts of his body ached from hunting. And training. And patrolling.

Shadowheart usually didn't get much rest, mostly because he was the last descendant of shadowstar, and he was expected to do many hard and brave tasks. So, he didn't get much sleep.

The only cat that still treated him like he was alive was ivyfern, a pretty and sweet she cat many toms aim for. At least he was glad to call her a friend.

Ivyfern padded up to him. "Shadowheart, I think mothwhisker needs you." He nodded. "Thanks for telling me."

He padded towards the medicine cat den. "What is it, mothwhisker?" He said. "A few nights ago, I received a prophecy." Shadowheart nodded. "I think you're one of the prophesied cats."

Skytail padded into the Training hollow, his tail lifted high. His apprentice, rabbitpaw, sat down, waiting for him. After antpaw and crowfeather arrived, they began their training.

"Good swipe, rabbitpaw!" "Lower your, haunches, antpaw!" "Leap onto his back antpaw, take advantage of his size!" "Rabbitpaw, underbelly kick, knock him down!" "Don't be rough, antpaw! You could severely hurt him!" "Rabbitpaw, antpaw, the fighting is over."

Both apprentices padded to their mentors. "Good job rabbitpaw. I see good potential in you. Another good day like this, maybe I will ask onestar to give you your ceremony." Skytail said, smiling happily at his improving apprentice. His apprentice's face lit up.
" Go eat, rabbitpaw. You deserve it."

Skytail came back to the camp. He walked into the medicine cat's den. He and kestrelflight were good friends. They had known each other ever since skytail was a kitten.
When kestrelflight noticed him, he said," skytail! Just the cat I wanted to see!" Skytail was slightly confused. Kestrelflight actually never 'expected' to see anyone. Ever. So, obviously, skytail was confused.

"Is there something you need from me kestrelflight?" He asks. "Actually, yes. Yes i do."
"I have received a prophecy. "The sun will die, and the moon will rise, and all will come to an end, unless fire, darkness, waves, and sky come together." Skytail looked at him with surprise."Skytail, I believe starclan has chosen you as one of the cats."

Flameheart padded into the camp with his new apprentice. He nodded to snowdrop, who was still at her vigil. He watched his apprentice walk towards her siblings.

Gingerstreak, his brother, padded towards him. They sit next to each other, watching the apprentices wrestle.

"Do you remember when we were like that?" He nods. He looks at gingerstreak."your daughter is a good fighter." Gingerstreak purred. "Im glad to hear that."

Gingerstreak nodded and padded away. Flameheart went to the warrior's den and settled down in his nest.
As he was sleeping, he had a peculiar dream.

He was hunting a mouse, and when he brought it back to the camp, nobody was there, except Pebblepaw and four other cats. He saw a cat walk away from the group. They were calling the cat's name, his name. The cat collapsed. When flameheart went to see what happened, the cat was dead.

A faded, starry cat padded towards flameheart."Flameheart, the cats of starclan have something to tell you. You are a prophecy cat."

And there you go! The next chapter!
