The old leader of ThunderClan has died and Mottlesplash, the loyal and talented deputy, is ready to step into the role of leader. However, when Mottlesplash makes the journey to receive his nine lives from StarClan, he is met with unexpected and devastating refusal. Instead, StarClan names Swiftshadow, a lazy and careless tom, as the rightful leader of ThunderClan.

Confusion and jealousy cloud Mottlesplash as he grapples with the shocking news. Unable to accept StarClan's decision, he returns to ThunderClan and hides the truth, continuing to act as leader while keeping Swiftshadow in the dark about his destined role.

"In The Dark" is a riveting tale of power, deceit, and redemption. The fate of ThunderClan hangs in the balance as the true meaning of leadership is put to the ultimate test.

CotS #1: The Dark Path (currently being rewritten) by Frostwind88

Stormpaw is cast aside by her Clan because her father was a rogue. Her mother does not care for her and her father was killed by her own aunt. Stormpaw desperately tries to prove herself, but to no avail. However, StarClan has a destiny for her... !! Please note it is written in first person POV !! Also, the plot was a little silly. The Dark Path and A Brighter Future were written by me about a year back, and I feel that the plot was not the best, however I can't change it now. It is under heavy editing, you will be able to see which chapters were edited. Please note that the plot is very messy, but still okay to read! Cover credits @Kittycode5

Heart Of A Fighter (Book 1): The Story Begins by Stormfast_Studios

BlazeClan is no ordinary clan. If you happen to be a non-royal she-cat, your fate is pretty much sealed, just like Goslingpaw's. Toms are valued much more and are given higher ranks while she-cats that are not royals are thrown to lowly ranks and are always expected to obey the toms' every command. What's more, the narcissistic clan leader, Cougarstar, expects nothing short of perfection. And his two nasty, spoiled children Lichenthorn and Beetlescar treat every single cat like they owe them the world. And Goslingpaw is sick of it all. When a prophecy speaking of a cat of grace and beauty bringing the clan to safety after Roadwalkers start to destroy the forests to build a hotel, the entire clan thinks the cat in the prophecy is her annoying and spoiled sister Swanpaw, but Goslingpaw knows it isn't her. How? Because Goslingpaw is the only one who heard the voices singing to her over the mountains.

Kittypet Clanborn - Tales Unleashed by warriorcatlover345

It all began with a certain brown tabby-and-white she-cat, Lilypetal, whose determination and spirit led her far from her Twoleg home, and to the forest where the wild cats of ThunderClan lied, and ended with that same she-cat's determination and spirit ridding of a certain gray-speckled spirit whose heart burned with rage for the loss of things he never deserved, and giving Lilypetal the position of ThunderClan's deputy. Many things happened in between, with new cats joining us along the way - Goldenshine, who would stop at nothing to be the hero she'd always dreamed of; her sister, Snowflight, whose destiny was to do nothing but protect and heal those she cared about, whether or not she was dead or alive; and then Swiftflight, who unfortunately had been brought to his worst self, even as a young apprentice, and didn't become his best until he was a grown warrior. But unfortunately, not every piece of their journey could be shared, and there are even stories of other cats seen along the way that need telling... some more tales amidst, before, and a bit after the story we all know, that will be unleashed.
