Firestar jumped up onto the Great Rock in FourTrees, calling his Clan and allies to gather in the clearing. Firestar was a ginger tom, his orange fur shining like a flame in the morning sun. Not even two moons ago, Firestar was granted a leader's gift of nine lives and now he lead an alliance of all the Clans; WindClan, ShadowClan, RiverClan, and his own ThunderClan.

He had convinced Tallstar and Leopardstar to follow him into battle against a Twolegplace Clan called BloodClan and their leader, Scourge. Three days ago Scourge demonstrated his power and strength by killing Tigerstar, the leader of ShadowClan. The deathblow was so severe that Tigerstar lost all nine of his lives to one dog-tooth strengthened paw.

"Why call us when Scourge and his BloodClan are almost on top of us?" Tallstar meowed as he joined Firestar. Tallstar was a black-and-white tom with an abnormally long tail and was the leader of WindClan.

"I had a vision last night, Bluestar and Spottedleaf told me not to fight BloodClan," Firestar said. "They said that a path would be opened here and that we were to walk it if we chose."

"And where is this path you speak of?" Leopardstar asked. Leopardstar was an unusually spotted golden tabby she-cat that lead RiverClan. "Why should we follow a path when we are ready and willing to fight here and now?"

"Because if we fight cats will die. We'll come out on top, but will the clans be able to remain as four?"

"Look, StarClan is moving!" a cat wailed. Even though dawn had come and gone every Cat could still clearly see Silverpelt, the camp of StarClan, in the sky. And it was moving, circling and descending to FourTrees. As they came closer their forms began to come in to focus, showing the recent and long dead cats of the four Clans.

Cats of all Clans watched as their loved ones leaped to the ground next to them, landing among the living and the branches of the trees above the Great Rock.

Bluestar, the previous leader of ThunderClan, landed next to Firestar and meowed, "The leaders of LionClan, TigerClan, LeopardClan, and PantherClan have spoken and decreed that the five clans shall leave this world for another. One where there is no stink of twoleg trash, or their monsters that carry them."

Every cat was stunned into silence. The greatest cats that had ever ruled the forest were those of LionClan, TigerClan, LeopardClan, and PantherClan. They were the ancestors of all cats and their leaders were going to open a path to another world!?

In a flash of light four giant cats, a lion, a tiger, a leopard, and a panther, appeared on the Great Rock standing with their shoulders almost touching.

"StarClan has decided that we shall protect the path until all who wish to go are through," Bluestar continued. "Do not worry, we shall be reborn into the Clans once you have settled."

"But, where shall we live? How shall we hunt?" Leopardstar asked.

"The four Clans shall be given territory by the one many call Grandmother."

I woke to Golden Spark and Light Sweet crawling on me. They were obviously hungry and had been trying to drink from my breast if the wetness of my nightgown was anything to go by.

"Okay, let's-" I yawned, trying to take off my gown. "Let's give you some milk."

While the two foals latched on I stared blearily at the wall, trying to stay awake so I could burp them if I needed to. If only they didn't need to eat every three or four hours. And I didn't take at least an hour to get to bed afterwards.

I sighed, looking down at them. I wish I had more to remember Celestia and Luna by- My head shot up and my hand pulled on the rope next to the bed. While I waited for somepony to respond, I pulled a plan together and took out the tokens I would need to complete it. A few minutes later a servant I didn't recognize came into the room, blushing as he saw my foals were still drinking.

"Yes, your highness?" he asked.

"I would like for you to have five tons of coal delivered to the antechamber in front of the throne room at dusk," I handed him the tokens. "And make sure I am given these when it arrives."

"Y-...yes, your highness."

Author's Notes:

I had been reading the books lately. I am not ashamed, they are very good books.

Next intermission will have some more exposition about what had happened where the cats come from. I do not own the Warriors series or the characters. The one to write the books was Erin Hunter and if anyone is interested in the books themselves, PM me and I'll give you a link to all 47 of the books.
