Raging Storm BOOK 1

Prologue

Long ago, there was a rich couple living in Asia. They owned four cats:

Storm- a beautiful, long furred she-cat with bluish grey fur

Panther- a sleek, black tom with fierce, yellow eyes

Mud- A bulky, long furred brown tom with a flat face

And Star- A beautiful, silver she-cat with glowing, blue eyes

One day, the couple found a child was due and decided that a rich environment free of modern technology was appropriate and purchased a plot of land deep within the rainforest.

The new father built a home and when the baby was born, the young family moved.

In the forest, the four cats grew curious. Eventually, with much hesitation they left they're human home with Star in lead. They struggled to survive and soon grew accustomed to the ways of the jungle.

After a while, Star and Panther grew so close, they kitted.

Three kits were born, Rain, Mountain, and Lightning.

With everything so happy, the cats did not thing anything could go wrong.

But then, he came. A large creature, a tiger that they named the Terrible Tyrant. He attacked the newborn kits. In her struggle to save them, Star attacked, tearing her claws across his face and ripping an eye out in the process. The Terrible Tyrant roared in agony and clawed her before racing away in terror.

Star though, was mortally wounded. In her finale moments, she told her mate she'd be watching from far above, a single light in the darkened sky. She then requested that the three remaining cats taught her kits to be great leaders, for them to create three clans, each on honoring the kits.

The moment she died, a lone light shone brightly in the sky, Star was watching over them as she had promised.

The cats decided to raise each by themselves.

Lightning was raised by his father.

Rain was raised by Storm.

Mountain was raised by Mud.

The three motherless kits grew, raised by their father and adoptive family.

Lightning, who looked exactly like his father, became a clever, mysterious tom.

Rain, who had a sleek, silvery pelt, became a determined, quick she-cat.

Mountain, who was a dark greyish brown, became a bold, strong tom.

When the time came, Panther told them of their mother and her finale request. In honor of her, they gave each cat the last name of "Star".

They each became Lightningstar, Rainstar, and Mountainstar.

Storm and Mud, who had bred gave their two of their six kits to each cat, then Mud joined Mountainstar, Storm joined Rainstar, and Panther joined Lightningstar.

Over the years, the couple who had first brought the cats there, adopted more, some of which joined the growing clans.

Now, many moons later, the night sky, or Silverpelt, is full of stars for every live lost in the clans. Many move around but Star never does, always remaining still so she can make sure her children's clans are safe.

And that, is how the jungle clans were born.
