I have read the Warriors series before and decided, why not write my own?

This version of this story is actually discontinued, so you may have better luck reading the new version here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/224458043-visions-of-embers While they are different versions and different things will happen, there will be some spoilers in this version. --- Book 2 of "A New Dawn" - Continued from book 1, "Embers" After an intense forest fire sweeps through the territories, all four Clans are left homeless and hungry in the face of a quickly-approaching leafbare. Many cats did not survive, and those that did are weak and wounded. With no foliage, prey is scarce, and even the cats that remain prove to be more than the territories and surrounding lands can support. Cats are starving and dying, and the Clans fight among themselves and each other for what little prey and territory is left unscathed. In the midst of it all, an ominous prophecy rings in Redwing's mind, and his nightmares grow ever darker with each drop of blood spilled. All cats can't help but wonder: are the Clans really meant to survive?

Ever since she was a young kit, all Larkpaw has wanted to do was to help her Clanmates. Thus, it seems an obvious choice to become the medicine cat apprentice. From her first night as an apprentice onward, however, the young cat is haunted by disturbing dreams of battle and bloodshed. Perhaps these visions mean that she chose right, becoming ThunderClan's bridge between the living and their warrior ancestors, but she can't help but wonder if the path she's chosen is truly the best way to serve her Clanmates. When all-out war breaks out between her Clan and one of the others who share its borders, her faith and loyalty in StarClan, her Clanmates, and herself are truly put to the test. ----- This fanfiction is based on some of the very first WARRIORS characters and plots I- and one of my close friends- came up with after getting into the series many years ago. While the originals were perhaps not the most well thought-out or intriguing in the world (or even among WARRIORS fanfiction), they actually weren't horrible, and with some tweaking I managed to make it into a decent story. Thus, this fanfiction is a callback to simpler times- the old forest where dead cats stayed dead, living cats stayed in their borders (mostly), no one had powers, medicine cats actually CHOSE to be medicine cats, and not everything happened because of a prophecy probably (definitely) revolving around ThunderClan. That said, I feel as though I should apologize that this story takes place mostly within ThunderClan; I considered changing it, but I felt that switching Clans would not be true enough to the original stories and characters (as bland and childish as they may have been). I do hope, however, that I've managed to make ThunderClan a BIT less Sue-y and unlikeable. All that said, thank you for reading! I hope it serves to return to some of the original spirit of WARRIORS, and that you enjoy reading this story as much as we have had years of fun imagining and re-imagining it.

Several generations after the war between StarClan and the Place of No Stars, a new prophecy arises that devastation will come and divide the Clans forever, but Whisperleaf is worried that the prophecy will divide StarClan again as well. No one seems to have any idea what the prophecy means: their only clues are visions of death and fire, while one cat is haunted by dreams of battles taking place far away.
