- It all started thousands of moons ago. Two weary loners, tired from travelling, both found this forest and decided to live here for the rest of their life. They never met, until one fateful night..
Hex had reached the Moon Falls on a full moon. Kai had claimed it though, but he did not know. Hex crawled through the old log, and saw the illuminated water fall, and was amazed at it. He was about to touch it when Kai charged at him, knocking him straight into the water. Hex fell down into a pool of water, which turned into a river that cut through the land. This river would later separate the two clans territory as well. As he fell into the water, Starclan decided that these two cats would eventually lead the two new clans. As soon as Hex started to swim, Starclan nodded. "He will do," one cat said. Kai came running for Hex. He widened his eyes as he saw Hex swim strongly to the bank of the deep pool of water. Hex trotted out of the water, glaring at Kai, who was starting to get defensive. He crouched low, ready to run if he had to. Hex ignored the other cat, and shook out his pelt, spraying Kai. Starclan all agreed to let them into Starclan. The whole Starclan came down to the loners. Both cats immediately froze with terror.
"What's happening?" Kai asked as the first of the starry cats began to descend from the sky. Two cats stepped out of the starry ranks. The first one, a small white she-cat, introduced herself.
"Hello. I'm Iceflicker, and this is Branchfrost." she meowed, motioning to a stronger brown tomcat with white face markings. He dipped his head to the cats. "Do not be afraid," she murmured. Hex and Kai found themselves calming, and Hex spoke.
"What are you?" he asked, his voice full of wonder. This time, Branchfrost replied.
"We Starclan, the dead cats of Stormclan and Oakclan. And we have chosen you two cats to lead the clans once more," he mewed, his voice loud and strong. Murmurs of agreement passed through the sparkling cats. Iceflicker nodded.
"How come you all died?" Hex asked. Branchfrost and Iceflikers eyes met.
"Wolves. One large pack of those wolves came. They attacked us, and killed us for our territory. We were the last ones remaining," Branchfrost mewed. "But they all died from a sickness."
"We have been watching you ever since you stepped into this forest. Will you help us bring back the clans?" Slowly, both cats nodded.
"But what do we have to do?" Kai asked.
"First, we will grant you both nine lives, then you will search for cats worthy of being in your clans," Branchfrost mewed. Hex and Kai both received nine lives, courageous, loving, caring, compassion, strength, endurance, swiftness, loyalty, and leadership. Both cats were renamed, Kai was Oakstar, and Hex was Stormstar.
Both cats finished their meeting with Starclan, and set out to rebuild the clans. One moon later, both Oakstar and Stormstar met in the forest, and visited Starclan. They established rules and boundaries, medicine cats and deputies. Both clans lived in peace, full stocked prey piles, and no disputes. But darkness is coming. Will you join the clans? Or stay in the dark, without a warrior code?
