Once, a long time ago, there lived four great Clans. These are not the Clans you are thinking of, however. Well, they are apart of this, actually. During Bramblestar's reign, a strange cat appeared, showing that the time of the four was over. When Blazestar, a descendant of the great Lionblaze of ThunderClan came to leadership many moons later, the prophecy came true. He, leader of ThunderClan, joined with RiverClan, WindClan, and ShadowClan when Twolegs once more started to destroy the Clans' territories.

So, deciding to move once more, the Clans traveled to a new land. Along the way, they found remenants of BloodClan and SkyClan. As they traveled, this group bonded. The journey took many, many moons. It saw the rise and fall of several different leaders. Finally, after years and years of traveling, the leaders of the Clans came upon the perfect territory. By now, Clan and rogue had been intertwined so much that old traditions were changed. The warrior code was no longer the same. New words and names came about.

Instead of StarClan and the Dark Forest, there was now AngelClan and DevilClan. Heaven and Hell. As they'd traveled, they'd also foud some previously unknown Clans, RippleClan and CaveClan. Now with eight Clans, finding territory was difficult. So, two-by-two, Clans combined. ThunderClan and RiverClan combined to create RainClan. WindClan and RippleClan combined to form MeadowClan. BloodClan and SkyClan became SnowClan. And ShadowClan and CaveClan became PineClan.

Once the leaders of the old Clans died, the new leaders took their postions.

Flamingstar of RainClan. A bold, flame-colored she-cat with two different eyes and paws a jet-black. Their territory is covered in forests and rivers. Known for their climbing and swimming. Their camp, a hollow with a stream running through it. Rivers seperate their territory from the two on either side.

Violetstar of MeadowClan. A kind, light silver tabby she-cat with purple eyes and two white ears. Their territory is to the right of RainClan, a wide expanse of meadows and prairies. Known for their great speed and occasional diving. Their territory, a dip in the earth. A river seperates them from RainClan and a small creek seperates them from SnowClan.

Hawkstar of SnowClan. A brave, red-brown tom with yellow eyes and a distinctive scar on his face. Their territory is to the right of MeadowClan and accross from RainClan. A thick birch forest. Known for their knowledge on other species and jumping. Their camp, a clearing surrounded by fallen birches. A creek seperates them from MeadowClan and a thick pine and spruce forest from PineClan.

Fallenstar of PineClan. A wise, dark brown tabby tom with light green eyes and thick, long fur. Their territory is to the right of SnowClan and the left of RainClan. A thick, dense forest of pine and spruce trees. Known for their ability to hunt in the dark and stick to the shadows. Their camp, a large underground cave, entered from a small opening under a tree. A thick pine forest seperates them from SnowClan and a river from RainClan.

Sticking to some traditions, they decided to hold a gathering every full moon in the center of the territories. A moon after they settled in, a medicine cat from PineClan discovered a cave under the meeting territory that led to an ancient tree that lit up with starlight when the moon shined down from roof. This became MoonTree. The medicine cat decided to revive the old tradition to meet every half moon.

No Twolegs have been seen for a long while. Nor have any dogs. Wolves, deer, badgers, foxes, and birds-of-prey are the only predatators now. Our story takes place years after the leadership has changed a few times. Now, as we begin, remember the changes. These are no longer the Clans you thought you knew...
