*sheds tear*
Here it is. This is what started everything.
Let us begin...
EchoStar's Destiney.
It was a cold and dark leafbare night in venusclan. IvyStar was asleep in her den and the deputy,EchoDust,was asleep with the warriors. All any cat could hear was the slow snoring of sleeping cats. But a shrill cry broke the silence. All of the clan except elders and kits ran into the clearing of the camp. And all at once, the forest erupted in flames. But then every thing went dark.
Chapter One:leaders question
EchoDust jumped awake in the warriors den. It has been just a dream. She was laying down when a sound made her jump. But it was just her freind, PetalHeart. "What's wrong EchoDust?" She asked. "Nothing, just a dream" EchoDust mewed back. A few moments later EchoDust was asleep again. No more dreams disturbed her. She woke to find her freind, LeopardHeart, nudging her awake.
When she came out of the den, she was greeted by the leader, IvyStar.
IvyStar soon mewed "please come to my den,now if possible". Then she walked away to her den. EchoDust followed. When they both sat down inside, EchoDust asked what her leader needed to tell her. When her leader spoke, her words wore full of discomfort. "Our clan is in great danger, EchoDust. I don't know what though. I need you to talk to SnowyLeaf for me." "Ok, IvyStar" EchoDust mewed back.
Chapter Two: The Med Cat
When EchoDust reached the med cat den, she called out snowyleaf's name several times before entering. When she came in she saw SweetPelt laying on the floor with SnowyLeaf over her giving her herbs. As SnowyLeaf saw EchoDust, she walked towards her. When SnowyLeaf asked what she could do for EchoDust, the first thing EchoDust said was to ask if SweetPelt was ok. When SnowyLeaf said yes, EchoDust told her the real news. "IvyStar would like to see you immediately" she mewed. "Oh, ok I will ask my apprentice to watch SweetPelt for me" SnowyLeaf answered. When snowyleaf's apprentice, LeafPaw, came into the medicine cat den, SnowyLeaf told her what to do then left. EchoDust left as well. Her brother, TreeFang, was waiting. "Who shall come with you on the morning patrol?" He asked her. "LostEar, WhitePaw, and GrayFur. You shall lead" EchoDust mewed back. When TreeFang nodded and turned away, SnowyLeaf walked up to EchoDust and told her that IvyStar needed to ask her something about hawkkit.
Chapter Three: The Apprentice
When IvyStar and EchoDust sat together in the leaders den under the highrock, IvyStar mewed "I believe hawkkit is ready to be an apprentice, I think you would be a good mentor for her". EchoDust said yes, and she left. That night when it was time for sharing-tongues, IvyStar jumped on the highrock and called a clan meeting. "Hawkkit has reached the age to become a apprentice" she mewed when all the cats had gathered. "Her mentor shall be EchoDust". "Until she has earned her warrior name, she shall be known as HawkPaw" she mewed. All of the clan yowled "HawkPaw,HawkPaw,HawkPaw!!". When the clan quieted, IvyStar dismissed the meeting.
Chapter Four:The Patrol
The next morning EchoDust told who shall go on the morning patrol.
"TreeFang, LostEar, and HawkPaw. I will lead" she told the cats she had chosen. When they set out, they went straight for the river by the aquaclan border. When they got there, the AquaClan scent was strangely stale. But a new patrol came through the bushes on the other side of the river. They glared at EchoDust, then moved on. The VenusClan patrol kept going till they reached meeting-place(four trees). But a strange scent was on the NightClan border. It seemed to cross the border then head toward the thicker part of the forest in VenusClan territory. But it wasn't NightClan scent. EchoDust brought TreeFang and he rest of the patrol to follow the scent. When they reached the lake where the forest grew thicker, the scent grew strong. When they got to the lake the scent trailed around the lake into a clearing on the other side. When the patrol reached the clearing, the scent grew over-powering. The smell was foul and the patrol almost turned back, but EchoDust wouldn't let them. But she grew scared as the bushes on the side of the clearing shook. All of the sudden a badger jumped out and landed on LostEar.
