Side Story/ Oneshot companion piece to my current series Warriors: Broken Threads. The Dark Forest's influence spreads vast throughout the forest, affecting even the most unaware with their tricks. Even the most innocent of cats are touched by their evil. This oneshot focuses on Cloudpaw, a future character of RussetClan who will be mildly important. It delves into his mind, and the workings of the Dark Forest and how they affect cats. It does give a lot of insight as to what is happening in the series as a whole; the Dark Forest is the main threat of the series and the series will end when the Dark Forest is stalled. I wrote it based slightly off of how the Dark Forest influences cats in the Erin Warrior's Arcs, but with more... well, with more subtleties. If anyone wants me to continue this, or to take more characters and give them short backstories, feel free to say so! I also take requests for your own OC's and characters, and am willing to write for your stories as well.

*First place in the Warriors Watty Awards 2015 Short Story Category* Frog always felt like he didn't belong. What else would one think when that was all they'd ever been told? After being cast out of the makeshift family of Twolegplace loners he was born into, the tom finds himself on the wrong side of SeaClan's border. Caught by the fierce and beautiful Swanpaw, Frog soon realizes that this harsh world SeaClan lives in is no place for a cowardly, wandering loner like him. Trapped in a world he knows nothing of, Frog must prove his worth to SeaClan if he wishes to survive, or he risks losing his place on the earth altogether - if he ever had one in the first place.

So it was a lie. They were trying to trick this cat to save ThunderClan! Shadepaw held back a gasp of awe. He never realized that StarClan would lie for the safety of their Clanmates, he thought that they would always let the warriors find their own ways! He was proven wrong though. Bigtime. StarClan were no different than ThunderClan. But lying to their Clanmates... Had StarClan gone mad? ----- This is a work of fanfiction, based off the series 'Warriors' by author Erin Hunter.
