Cold Bloodlines: A Warrior Cats Fanfiction
66 parts Complete MatureThe life of a wild warrior has always been unforgiving, but it is even more so back when the five Clans of the forest are younger- when the warrior code is still evolving, and battles are more frequent and deadly. As the harshest leaf-bare that the five Clans have ever seen descends on the forest, their survival becomes even more precarious. But, starvation and the cold threaten more than just Clan cats, and the brutal elements force Frost, a young rogue kit, to seek shelter in ShadowClan.
Rejected by her father and orphaned after the death of her mother, Frost is left alone in ShadowClan. Although ShadowClan will not banish a kit in need, Frost struggles to feel as if she truly belongs there.
As she grows from a kit to an apprentice and finally a warrior, she must fight to prove herself to her new Clan, while also unraveling the secrets of her parentage. But, the state of the forest is fragile, and a storm of war looms ever closer, threatening Frost's place in the Clan that she now calls home.
Author's Note: Tagged "Mature" because of canon-typical depictions of violence and death.
