Island Clans: The Mists Unveiled

[The Claw]

Title: Island Clans: The Mists Unveiled
Summary: On an island, far from the coast lives four clans of feral cats; PondClan, TreeClan, StoneClan and MistClan. The Island is very large, and three of the clans only live in part of it. The rest of the island is unknown to the cats for it is concealed in thick mists. Only one clan knows and thrives beyond the mists. MistClan, formed of deceased feral cats make their home in the mists, sending dreams and prophecies to cats. But others live in the mist too. Strange cats from strange places also make their home in the swirling mists. Even MistClan cannot predict what will happen to PondClan, TreeClan and StoneClan if the strange cats' fury is released on the clan cats. MistClan chooses two cats from each clan to venture where no other clan cats have ever gone before: beyond the mists. All the while, StoneClan has been acting suspiciously. MistClan has sent a bone chilling prophecy to the chosen six: Lion Tiger and Leapord will shatter the stones, fell the trees and empty the pond when the mists rise . What does this mean for the clans?

~~Prolouge~~

Amidst the swirling mists, three cats sat placidly on the moist ground. The first cat was a tortoishell she-cat. Her eyes were green and she was slim and tall. Like the other two, her coat was faded and white, with only the slightests hints of her original coat color for she was a cat of MistClan. She sat up a little taller and spoke.
"Today we have gathered to choose the six that shall venture into the mists and discover the cats that dwell there. I, Acornstar of MistClan, former leader of TreeClan, choose Robinpaw and Foxfur as representitives from TreeClan" Acornstar relaxed and turned to the cat sittting next to her. The cat next to her, at tall grey tom with thick, shiny fur responded.
"I beleive you have chosen well. I, Streamstar of MistClan, former leader of PondClan, choose Troutclaw and Ripplepelt as representitives from PondClan" Streamstar smiled as he looked at the third cat. The third cat was a red tabby of massive size. His yellow eyes flashed in the mists as he spoke.
"I beleive you have chosen well. I, Coralstar of MistClan, former leader of StoneClan choose Crystalheart and Pearlpaw as representitives from StoneClan."
Acornstar nodded her head in the final response.
"I beleive you have chosen well. And now, let us send dreams!"


That's all I have time for now! To be continued....

~~Chapter 1~~
Robinpaw twisted and turned in her sleep. The apprentices den inside the hollowed out tree was crowded with sleeping apprentices. Suddenly, for a reason Robinpaw was not aware of, he opened up his eyes. Beside him was a shimmering cat. "This cat is from MistClan" he thought in wonder. The shimmering cat spoke, but, oddly enough, Robinpaw realized that he was hearing the words in his head, not aloud. "Yes, I am from MistClan. I am Acornstar. I led this clan before I died and Maplestar became leader. But enough talk. I have an important message for you. You have been chosen to go on a journey that will lead you beyond the mists" Robinpaw shivered as if the phrase 'beyond the mists' sent a draft through his den. Acornstar smiled at him in reasurrance before continuing. "You will not be alone. Two cats from each clan have been chosen. You are one of the two from TreeClan. Tonight you shall meet with the others at the gathering place. MistClan will send you a message that will guide you on your journey. Now, go back to sleep, Robinpaw. Sweet dreams!" Acornstar faded away as Robinpaw drifted off to sleep.
At dawn, Foxfur padded into the apprentices den.
"Come on, Robinpaw. It's time for some training!"
Robinpaw jerked awake ran ran outside, eager to start training. Suddenly, he remembered the strange dream that was sent to him by MistClan. He opened his mouth to tell Foxfur, then decided against it. Something inside told him that he had better not tell anyone about where he was going or they might try to stop him.
Foxfur smiled at his emergetic apprentice. "Today we will learn hunting". Robinpaw's face alighted with delight. "Oh goody!" he exclaimed.

~~Chapter 2~~
After a long day of training, Foxfur dismissed Robinpaw
"Put everything you have caught today in the fresh-kill pile and grab something for yourself. Then you can go and play with the other apprentices" Foxfur looked distracted as he trotted off to the warriors den.
Finally, night came. The stars were bright, though clouded by the mists. Unce he was sure that all of the other warriors were asleep, Foxfur crept out of the warriors den and into the cold night air. He shivered as he made his way to the gathering place. Suddenly, he smelled a strong scent of a TreeClan cat behind an oak tree. A small head peeked out from behind the oak tree.
"Foxfur? What are YOU doing here?" asked a startled Robinpaw.
Foxfur also looked bewildered. "I could ask the same of you! To tell the truth, I don't really know why I am here! Acornstar sent me this dream-"
"Me too!" Robinpaw interrupted excitedly "So we must be the chosen ones from TreeClan! Oh, I'm so glad it is you and me, I was worried it would be someone mean like Brownpaw!"
Foxfur supressed a laugh as he continued to walk towards the gathering place.
"Come on, we don't want to be late!" Mentor and apprentice trotted down to the gathering place.
Robinpaw never failed to be amazed by the gathering place. On one side, mists swirled; representing MistClan. On the other side, a tall boulder stood, representing StoneClan. A big river ran parallel to the boulder; representing PondClan. A rather large tree stump was planted diagonally from the river, representing TreeClan. Robinpaw and Foxfur scampered up onto the tree stump stump and sat together, waiting for the other cats to come.
"Guess we're the first ones here!" exclaimed Robinpaw.

~~Chapter 3~~

Robinpaw was so excited, he nearly jumped out of his fur as he saw the two cats from PondClan aproach the gathering place.
"Look, Foxfur! I smell PondClan! I see them too!"
Foxfur smiled. "Yes, yes. I see them too!" He sighed. Foxfur shook the dirt from his long, red fur. After doing so, he decided he might as well study the two cats. They were both tall and thin. Their short, wet, gray fur cung to their bodies. They had dull, gray eyes that seemed to be sunken into their slim faces. Foxfur reaized that they were extremely underfed as he could see their ribs. One of them called out in a voice that was smothered with sarcasim.
" Are you done looking? 'Cause once you are, I'd like to introdce myself! I'm Troutclaw. And this here is Ripplepelt" He flicked his tail at the cat next to him.
"I do suppose you are the chosen ones from TreeClan?" He smirked.
"Hah! You look more like furry, overgrown acorns!" He and Ripplepelt laughed merrily. Robinpaw was red with fury.
"Well, at least we aren't underfed! You two look ike you aven't eaten in moons!"
Foxfur groaned. He ad hardly met these cats and they were already fighting.


Sorry, gotta go I'll finish later!
