Frecklesky loves to fight and defend her Clan, but has a habit of keeping others at a tail's length. When she meets a pretty kittypet on enemy territory, can she continue being loyal to her Clan, or will she sacrifice what little she has for a stranger - a cat she may be head over heels for? ❀ I originally came up with this story on July 9th, 2021. I started writing it on March 30th, 2022. I finished the story on May 30th, 2022. Word Count: 30,000+ Cover by ashlilycats on Instagram. Please note that this is the roughest of rough drafts. Inspired by Erin Hunter's "Warrior Cats" series. ❀ ** COMPLETE, UNEDITED! **

"I wasn't scared anymore. The end of this struggle wasn't over, but I was more than ready to start working towards it. It was all that I could do now. Ashfur had taken, and had tried to take, many things that I cared about, but I had to ruthlessly protect what was left." Lilypetal has been pushed to her limit, having to witness her worst enemy prey down her family, as well as her Clanmates. The adversity she has faced has torn her down, leaving so much anger and grief, but also a strong fire of determination and resilience. This former kittypet must rely on these things, next to her closest family and allies, in order to do what she has always planned - take down Ashfur once and for all. Swiftflight has recently broken free of Ashfur's trap, but immediately finds himself in a new one - he is now a fully loyal, dedicated ThunderClan warrior, but many of his Clanmates struggle to see that. And while Goldenshine has felt immense relief in seeing her son attempt to redeem himself, she carries her own share of burdens - her sister, Snowflight, has still not been released from Snowstorm, Swiftflight's best friend, and the reason for this is still a complete mystery.

ThunderClan has lived moons in peace. The water is plentiful and the cats are strong. But, with the Dark Forest drawing closer and tragedies emerging, things are starting to go downhill. It all begins with Swiftkit. He is born as an innocent newcomer to the clan. He is strong and independent, but his morals quickly change when he is visited by the most hated cat in all of the Clans. ***DISCLAIMER*** The time gap between Chapter 7 and Chapter 8 is literally a YEAR, so, I must warn you that the cleanliness of Chapter 8 and onwards completely emulates the first seven chapters of this book. I certainly don't think that they are BAD, but I am definitely going to fix them up once I've got more time (just some little grammar tweaks, updating plot points, and fixing some dialogue). So, just keep that in mind when you read this. I hope you still enjoy!

It has been six moons since Goldenshine has become a warrior, but as she grows, she struggles as her loyalty begins to waver, causing her to question herself, and her dedication as a warrior. Meanwhile, Lilypetal discovers that her kin seems to have secrets. She notices that Goldenshine, Thornclaw, and Mistpelt all have something that they are not telling her. She wonders if there is another secret about the Clans that she could have never discovered, or rather, a secret about herself that she wasn't aware of. ***DISCLAIMER*** This book has been SIGNIFICANTLY edited and rewritten since I first released it, so I'm sorry if you look at the comments and you are utterly confused!

After a fire and the exile of a warrior, ThunderClan is troubled of what other problems will come to the Clans. But Lilypetal knows something the rest of the cats don't know - the dangerous Ashfur is still lurking through the Clan territories. Simultaneously, she has also been sucked into the middle of Squirrelfight's terrible secret - her kits are not actually hers. Lilypetal doesn't know what she plans on doing about any of it, but she knows it depends on her to do something about it, and to help her Clanmates. Meanwhile, Goldenkit, Lilypetal's daughter is desperate to become a warrior. It has been her dream since she first opened her eyes. She grows up as quite the determined, spunky young she-cat, which takes her through many situations and lessons as she learns to become the best warrior that she can be. ***DISCLAIMER*** This book has been SIGNIFICANTLY edited and rewritten since I first released it, so I'm sorry if you look at the comments and you are utterly confused!

Living near a place of wild animals, Lily has always wondered about the strange cats that lurk around the forest, and then the lake, where she is staying with her housefolk for the greenleaf season. Lily has a passion for adventure, which only furthers her curiosity of wild cats. She wonders if these cats are really dangerous, or just misunderstood. ***DISCLAIMER*** This book has been SIGNIFICANTLY edited and rewritten since I first released it, so I'm sorry if you look at the comments and you are utterly confused!

Mistpelt, mother of the spirited and fierce Lilypetal, was a she-cat that was honored in ThunderClan greatly for her loyalty she showed defending them in the BloodClan battle, and for her determination to return to her home after being snatched away from it. However, Mistpelt herself always carried her fair share of burdens, choosing on more than one occasion to keep secrets from her daughter out of shame for her past - a past that indeed leaves her with a heavy heart, but also made her the strong, selfless, and resilient cat that any cat would look up to and remember for moons to come. ***DISCLAIMER*** This book has been SIGNIFICANTLY edited and rewritten since I first released it, so I'm sorry if you look at the comments and you are utterly confused!

Ashfur and the Dark Forest are rising, and unfortunately, it is taking its toll... Swiftpaw has now been training in the Place of No Stars for four moons, and has only recently learned of their true motives for him. Will he stand against them and for what is right, or let himself fall into their horrible trap? Lilypetal continues to watch as Ashfur's plans unfold, who is still fixed on his plan for vengeance. Although it has been seasons since she first exposed the speckled-gray tom and sent him into exile... Lilypetal sees that time is only making Ashfur's vindictive heart grow stronger. And even through being pulled deeper into her past and focusing on her loved ones, she will stop at nothing to find a way to rid of Ashfur's wrath for good. Meanwhile, Goldenshine is still immersed in discovering more about one of ThunderClan's newest apprentices, Snowpaw, who according to Jayfeather is Snowflight's reincarnation. This may be clear to Goldenshine, but the reason for her sister's return is still completely unbeknownst to her.
