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.

Cold Bloodlines: A Warrior Cats Fanfiction
The 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. Formerly titled "Frosted Heart." This is a soft-reboot of Warriors- basically a fresh story with a new cast of characters and conflict, and some added worldbuilding around Clan culture and traditions. This story takes place in the Ancient Clans, specifically during the time period following the story "The Leader Who Sought Peace" found in "Battles of the Clans."Complete

Raised in the loving Order of Silverfeather, she's sent to a new, unfamiliar Order filled with strangers and a mentor she can't stand. As she learns friendship, courage, and the meaning of belonging, she begins to wonder: can she survive this new life-or will it break her first? Two cats. Two journeys. One fate. In a world on the brink, every choice could mean life... or death.Complete
Warriors #4: Darkness Awakens
ThunderClan has lived moons in peace. The water is plentiful and the cats are strong. But, with the Dark Forest drawing closer and tragedies emerging, things are starting to go downhill. It all begins with Swiftkit. He is born as an innocent newcomer to the clan. He is strong and independent, but his morals quickly change when he is visited by the most hated cat in all of the Clans. ***DISCLAIMER*** The time gap between Chapter 7 and Chapter 8 is literally a YEAR, so, I must warn you that the cleanliness of Chapter 8 and onwards completely emulates the first seven chapters of this book. I certainly don't think that they are BAD, but I am definitely going to fix them up once I've got more time (just some little grammar tweaks, updating plot points, and fixing some dialogue). So, just keep that in mind when you read this. I hope you still enjoy! And also, just to respect Wattpad's guidelines, I will say, that as a Warriors book, there is the mildest of mild violence! *Cover image is official Warrior Cats artComplete
