The War It was a normal day in Howlclan with the fresh, crisp winter season smell. Fireheart just was settling down from the exhausting day of telling the kits stories to keep them out of trouble when Deerstar and Wingclan emerged from hiding on top of the trees. "Deerstar, what is it that won't satisfy you this time? Get out or there will be worthless deaths of more cats," spat Thornstar, the leader of Howlclan, known for her strength and knowledge. "Wow! I can't believe I even need to tell you! I'd expect the leader of Howlclan noticing her warriors hunting on my territory," snapped back the impatient leader of Wingclan, Deerstar. "Deerstar," began Brownswift, the medicine cat of Howl and also Fireheart's best friend, "I was looking for herbs I guess I didn't realize the boundary, my mouth was full of catmint." "Excuses, excuses," growled Deerstar. Thornstar glanced back at her clan and gave them a brief nod. It was after all, time to get revenge on Wingclan for trying to steal kits one night. "Howlclan! Attack!" yowled Thornstar. Fireheart lunged for his kit, Wavekit, to get her away from the thick of fighting. He dodged Fireshade, a senior warrior of Howlclan leaping at a battle-scarred tom in front of him. When Fireheart reached Wavekit, he gently picked her up in his jaws and began to run as fast as he could. When he began to approach a crystal-clear stream, he had to stop. When he noticed an orange she cat charging after them, Fireheart placed down Wavekit and ejected his claws. When the cat was close to him and Wavekit, he leaped at her. Fireheart easily barreled her down and clutched his jaws around her leg, twisting furiously. He rolled of, dragging his claws across her flank leaving a scar. Wavekit watched as the she-cat tried lashing at her with her massive paws but Fireheart leaped over her and scratched her face. Wavekit backed up as Fireheart bashed the cats skull against the ground. Fireheart hissed at the she-cat and picked up Wavekit in his jaws and padded into the stream. His orange fur was adding extra weight but it didn't bring him down. When he slowly got out, he dropped Wavekit and shook his pelt. He picked up Wave and trotted to the bushes until he heard the last yowl of Windclan as they disappeared from Howlclan territory for the night. All of Howlclan were yowling their victory, Fireheart joined in. And even little Wavekit said a little mew of victory.

A Dangerous Way The soft breeze of moonlight drifted by with a great aroma of mouse and rabbit. Fireheart walked up to the fresh-kill pile and scooped up a mouse in his jaws. He trotted over until he was underneath the little, green bush where he liked to eat. As he nibbled on the mouse, his mate and also the leader of Howlclan, Thornstar, walked up to him. Her amber eyes were drifting with affection. She lied down next to Fireheart and licked his flame colored pelt. She began to take a bite out of the mouse too, until she heard a rustle in the bush far away from them. They both quickly got up and stood beside the creek and saw Wingclan coming out of the bushes. Thornstar yowled for her clan to get in a battle line. Wingclan, who were the intruders, got in their battle line as well. Deerstar, the leader of Wingclan right in the middle. Thornstar spat, "Deerstar, how dare you come in our territory. Get out or you will loose some warriors tonight. Deerstar chuckled, "Fool, you think you'll win this? It's time we get our territory back! "As you wish," Thornstar replied with a tint of dark happiness in her voice, "Howlclan! Attack!" Fireheart leaped at the closest warrior and fastened his fangs deep into her leg. He twisted, until he heard a snap, then as quick as a flash, he leaped onto her back and digged his teeth deep into her throat until he tasted blood. He then let go and kicked her away. He saw in the corner of his eyes Thornstar, who had pinned Deerstar down by her neck. She had her paw firmly on her neck. Deerstar wiggled out of her grip and slidded under, Fireheart quickly raced to help but was battered away from a muscular brown pelted tom. Fireheart showed no mercy, how dare these cats attack! He rolled away as the tom tried to jump on him. Fireheart darted under and shredded some fur of his belly using his jagged claws. The tom who was in pain, ran away yelping in pain. Deerstar saw her warriors beginning to run away, she called, "Wingclan, retreat!" She then turned over and sneered at Thornstar, "Don't think this is the last of Wingclan Thornstar. We'll be back," and Deerstar ran away with her clan in front of her limping away. Howlclan yowled their victory, Fireheart padded over to Thornstar and rested his muzzle on her head. The battle was won, Howlclan yet again, has another victory.

Scared At Night It was nighttime in the Howlclan camp. There was a nice breeze brushing against Fireheart's pelt as he tried to sleep, but his kit, Wavekit, kept him awake. She was scared, earlier that day was a battle with Windclan and little Wavekit was there to watch the horror. She was shaking, trembling, mewing for Fireheart. Fireheart sat up and walked over to Wavekit. To calm her down a bit he curled his white- tipped tail around her. He licked the top of her little head. "Wavekit, it's ok, I won't let anyone hurt you if they came. No one would lay a claw on you if they got to you, they'd be shredded. Now go to sleep little one, I promise I'll stay with you all day tomorrow. But if you want to be a great warrior, you need your sleep," Fireheart watched as Wavekit began to close her little eyes, sit down again, and sleep. Fireheart lied down close to her and curled up and went to sleep for the night.

The Apprentice It was late afternoon in Howlclan camp. Fireheart was tired from a days work of patrolling. He padded over to the fresh-kill pile and carefully picked up a back bird, and walked to the warriors den to eat but was interrupted by a yowl from Thornstar, the leader of Howlclan, "Howlclan! Meeting!" Fireheart quickly stood up and ran to where everyone would sit at a clan meeting. Thornstar sat on top of the Highrock with Shadowkit standing beside her. Thornstar began the meeting by saying, "I Thornstar leader of Howlclan now name a new apprentice, she has reached her sixth moon, and is ready to train. You're mentor will be Fireheart. Fireheart, I hope you teach all of your skill and training to your new apprentice Shadowpaw. "Of course Thornstar," Firehesrt replied with excitement. "Shadowpaw! Shadowpaw!" The clan cheered. Shadowpaw was excited to finally become an apprentice, she walked up to Fireheart and asked, "I'm honored to be your apprentice. I'll train the best I can. Can we start to train?" "Yes," answered Fireheart, " but first, let me finish my black bird, then we'll train. Ok? "Yay!" exclaimed Shadowpaw. When Firehesrt finished his black bird, he and Shadowpaw set off to begin to train.

The Kittypet While I was playing Toontown ( an online game for kids ) I was at camp with my clan. Then this weird Tigerstar weirdo came in my terra saying he's gonna get his ' revenge ' on Shadowclan. I was like "get out of my territory." Then he see's my kit Lionkit and is like "Ooo a kit, time for lunch." O_o. So then he apparently 'bit' her so I slammed him into the river and started attacking him . So when he claimed he was 'dead' he's like "gotta delete this toon, I'll be back." o_o. So when he left I told Lionkit that no matter how much of a Kittypet he was, we should go to a different district just to keep her safe. So then we did and she was ok .
