The Storm.

[Sile]

Several seasons went by after the sickness and battles. The battles had grown less and less, and clan life had gone on. Peace had begun settling between the clans, but unfortunately, it did not last. By that time, several leaders had risen and died, and these are the leaders, Deputies, and Medicine Cats of each of the clans.

LightClan:

Leader: Brightstar- Ginger and white she-cat with blue eyes.
Deputy: Tawnyclaw- Black and brown tabby she-cat with amber eyes.
Medicine Cat: Poppystripe- Brown tom with amber eyes.

MistClan:

Leader: Snowstar- Long-furred white she-cat with amber eyes.
Deputy: Lionclaw- Golden tabby tom with blue eyes.
Medicine Cat: Moontail- Black she-cat with yellow eyes.

BreezeClan:

Leader: Swiftstar- Tortoiseshell tom with yellow eyes.
Deputy: Mudstripe- Brown she-cat with yellow eyes.
Medicine Cat: Brackentail- Black tom with blue eyes.

PineClan:

Leader: Reedstar- Black and brown spotted she tom with amber eyes.
Deputy: Morningtail- Black and white splotched she-cat with amber eyes
Medicine Cat: Cedarfoot- Gray tom with green eyes.


Now, the clans are peaceful. It is starting to be leaf-bare. The sky's become dark, the nights long, and the days cold. Therr was no sunlight at all, and not a cloud could be seen. Panic spread through the clans. Seasons ago, the elders had spoke of the great MistClan-PineClan battles, about the StarClan warrior that had come down to speak to them. He had said StarClan would always be with them, but they are beginning to doubt that now. Where are the stars? Where is the moon? The clans were to frightened to send their Medicine Cats out every quarter moon to speak with their ancestors. Why had StarClan hidden from them? What would happen to their clans?
The gatherings stopped, along with the peace. The clans tempers was rising, and they were panicking. Battles began breaking out all along the four clans. This time, all four clans were fighting. The storms started, pounding rain, falling ice, thunder and lightning, fierce winds. The storms pounded down on the forest, attempting to destroy it. It is up to the four clans to work together and help each other out. But would Reedstar cooperate? He was trying to take over the other four clans. The other cats knew that if they did not help each other now, they would all be destroyed. Finally, they broke through to the PineClan leader, and one day all four clans gathered at the Shadowstone, and tried to speak to their ancestors. The cave sheltered them from the terrible storms, but their was no prey.
The clans had to send out their most strongest warriors into the fiercest storms to feed the clans, but sometimes they came back empty-pawed, and some warriors never returned at all. Their bodies were found later in the prophecy. The clans were slowly starving. The Medicine cats could hardly see their ancestors, let alone talk to them. But in the end, the managed to break through. After three difficult moons of starvation, fear, fights, and false accusations, the storms broke up, and left the forest in a stream of Starlight. The clan cats moved back into their forest, collected their loved ones bodies, and repaired the forest. StarClan assured the clan the storms were not their doings, but the doings of a strange darkness that shrouded the forest. There is a name for the prophecy.
