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

Confusion and jealousy cloud Mottlesplash's heart as he grapples with the shocking revelation. 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

Will the future hold the deaths of many loved ones? Dockkit found out about her power at a young age, and sort of saw it as a burden to herself, wishing she could be like the rest.

So when Silverpool is approached by her deceased sister in her dreams, she takes the words she hears seriously. "Prophecy... ThunderClan... don't know... StarClan... vanished, but no one... don't trust..." And what she finds-- may be the thing that sends Silverpool up to her sister in the stars.
