✨ 🌸 ☀️ DayClan ☀️ 🌸 ✨ 👾👾👾⬇️ CloverPeak⬇️
5By Lord Hunkyhair for the winSee The Sight for more info. DayClan is a peaceful clan. They believe in Starclan and the Dark Forest. 🌸 Roles 🌸 When a kit is first born, they are called a kit. But when they first open their eyes they are called a Sunrise. Once the Sunrise turns 8 months old they turn into a Fledgling. When they turn 12-17 moons old they become a Day. When they retire at 40-55 moons old they become a Sunset. Leaders are called Stars. ☀️ Retrials ☀️ When a kit is born the Star calls a clan meeting and everyone decides what the new kit will be called. One word names ( Tree,Sun, and more) are possible as are named like Dawnleaf. Names like Dawnleaf have no special prefixes like in normal clans. A kit can be Dawnleaf. There are no 2-4 names. When a Sunrise becomes a Fledgling they have a normal ceremony. When a Fledgling becomes a Day, they are given a new name. Same rules apply as for the first name. Then the new Day must stand still and say nothing for the rest of the day. Same ceremonies for the rest of the stuff as in book series. ✨ Rules of the Clan ✨ 1: Always obey leader 2: Always respect the sun 3: Never fight unless you have to too protect yourself. 4: Never kill 5: When eating prey, you must keep the bones to bury later. 6: Never leave territory. 7: Talk to no one outside of the clan 8: No questioning your betters 9: Only hunt with permission 10: Never mate someone who will not make strong kits with you. 11: CLAN OVER HEART! 👾👾👾: Bad. I have about 3 fanfics I am working on because the idea came in and wouldn’t go away. I WILL WORK ON IT THOUGH! CloverPeak: BadgerKit: BadgerFang, BadgerSong, and BadgerClaw. BurntKit: BurntTree, BurntHeart, and BurntTear. FrostKit: FrostPond, FrostBelly, and FrostStone. PebbleKit: PebbleSong, PebbleFoot, and PebbleWave - Sunset of the Skywings Airkit of RiverClan DonariaOMG
5By honestly :/I AM JUST LOST FOR WORDS… this book has changed my life. It makes me look so forward to reading it and it makes me look past some hard things in my life.. it’s just hard to explain but I just feel like I couldn’t live without it (well I’m probably over reacting BUT STILL) 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍Dovepool here! hopeclan!
5By a mega super duper fan•Was this forest endless? Did it have all the answers I seek? Are there really vicious wild cats waiting to tear me open?• She gasped and realized she’d been holding her breath, She remembered her housefolk and knew that around this time they would be calling for her only to find that she would not be there. The sun was waning and she knew she had to find shelter, •Maybe I can find myself new housefolk?• Just then a voice spoke from deeper within the hollow which she was resting,”oh for starclan’s sake do all kittypets smell that foul” a odd and rusty sounding voice mewed sarcastically. “And who might you be?” The she - cat mewed trying to sound brave,”oh please, kittypet, I’ll let you stay the night don’t worry” and with that the she-cat saw his back turn and fade into the darkness, •That was…odd but I feel like that could be a friend..• then a thought came to her,•Did he say…starclan?• she knew what starclan was because of wild cats that lived beside her garden but that was a long way away from here. •hm, he must be a traveler, I should be getting rest though• and without a further thought she curled up and rested until morning… “Hey..” A embarrassed sounding new came from the entrance, she also felt a paw prodding her side,”Get this flea-bag up! Do you think you can handle that, Turtle?” “Of course I can” a small voice made her jump, she liked the thought of the cat, Turtle, coming to wake her up maybe he could explain. “Uhm… can you wake up please?” Turtle asked her softly “Im already up” she slowly stood to her paws, as she looked at turtle she realized that he must be the same age as her, a little less than 12 moons old “Oh uhm hello, im turtle” “Well Hello turtle, I am…” she paused “Is something wrong?” “No, my name is juniper” “We’ll if you were awake then you probally heard the other cat..” “Yes I did who is he?” At that question it seemed as though turtle was deciding whether to tell her or not, Juniper thought his thinking face was cute. “That was Claw’Bird” he finally mewed “Claw…bird?” “Yes, he used to be a clan cat but now he’s not-“ he cut off as claw’bird cane prowling in and stalked right up to juniper with a bunch of cats behind him “Hold her down” he growled At once the cats were holding her down, pinning her everywhere, her back, her paws, and her tail. She was scared, and lashed out the other cats started unsheathing thier claws and raking her all over, her muzzle was bloody and she couldn’t see through the blood from her right eye her stomach hurt most of all “Stop!” She heard turtle wail, almost like he cared about her. “Don’t hurt her please!” Turtle begged “Yes, Claw’Bird I agree we shouldn’t be attacking her we should be holding her hostage and training her” Suddenly Juniper knew what was happening she had stumbled upon the rouges of the forest, and she was never going to escape. Lol short chapter sorry, next chapter is in the next book bye bye! ~sincerely,DovepoolName ideas! Pt. 1 ;)

5By warriorsIScoolIvywhisker gasped. She couldn’t believe that this was actually happening. She’d stopped to make dirt on the way back to the camp in a secluded clearing, and ran into something that she had never expected to see again. “Miss me?” Birch asked. She bounded over to him and pushed her muzzle into his cream-and-tan fur. He laughed. And in that instant, she knew that she would never love another cat. He curled around her and she leaned into him. “Leave the Clans. Come with me,” he murmured into her ear. “I can’t,” she meowed back at a similar volume. “I have kits, and an apprentice now. They’d hate me.” “Bring your kits. How long have you even had this apprentice? You’ve just gotten out of the nursery, even if you were expecting when I met you.” “Fine. Like less than a day. But still.” “Wow. You really are loyal and determined.” She gasped. “You were watching me?” His eyes sparkled. “Of course. Your kits are adorable. Did you have five or two? Who even has five kits?” “Oh, the brown ones are my sister’s. I had five, the ones with green and blue eyes.” “They’re beautiful, just like you.” He grinned and leaned in to rub his muzzle against hers. “Wait, you knew the answer, didn’t you? To the question you asked me?” Ivywhisker asked. Birch swept the tip of his tail gently across her muzzle, silencing her, and grinned. •Of course you did,• she thought. “Ivywhisker?” called Azurebreeze. “Coming,” she yowled back. “Sorry, Birch, I have to go. Can we meet here again? In one moon?” she mewed. “No.” he said. She felt like her heart was being slowly crushed under a Twoleg monster. “That’s not soon enough. In one week?” She gasped in surprise, relief, and delight. “Why did you do that to me?” He purred and gently nudged her towards the clearing entrance. She touched her muzzle to his one more time and padded away. When she looked back, he was gone, just another shadow among the trees. Ivywhisker hurried back to the patrol. “What took you so long!” Darlingpaw asked impatiently. “Darlingpaw!” Fernfluff reprimanded. Dawnpaw and Smokepaw giggled. Well, Dawnpaw giggled and Smokepaw’s tail wiggled. “No, it’s fine, I was just making dirt. AHEM,” she said loudly in Dawnpaw’s direction. Dawnpaw immediately stopped giggling and composed herself, but her whiskers betrayed her by twitching. Fernfluff beckoned his feisty apprentice and and Smokepaw followed. She brought up the rear with Darlingpaw, dragging an impressively sized pigeon. Azurebreeze had caught it, but she had snatched it up so that she could carry it into camp. Snatches of her own instruction floated back to her with the faint sound of Jetblaze’s voice. •now, lower your haunches… and stop waving your tail… you don’t want the prey to hear you now, do you? stop stomping, then…• Ivywhisker shook off the dejá vú and lifted her paw free of a bramble. She’d meet Birch at the same clearing next week, under the cover of darkness. Little did she know that her plan would fall down over her shoulders in a few moons’ time. Short chapter this time, I promise there’s better ones ahead!!! ~IvywhiskerSee what’s beyond (my warrior cat book!)

Proglue: A very skinny tom ran in. Everyone in thunderclan curled their lips, while queens hid their kits,growling. “Please they’re after me!!!” “And why would we Max? You never helped us even when we gave you shelter!” The she-cat shuddered at the memory. “Please I know I just-“ “you just what?” The skinny tom ran out and never looked back not even the moment he wished he did. Chapter one: Shimmerwave felt a bit different, it was a cold night horrible enough that she wished she hadn’t gone on the midnight patrol. Ever since a battle that happened when she was an apprentice the clan went crazy! “Hey over here it’s windclan” a clan mate,sadly, her mother, growled. “It’s rabbit it just came from windclan territory.” “Shut it young warrior!” “Aw I’m so scared! Now stop making a fuss about it can’t you see the rabbit paw print? It came from windclan territory they weren’t here.” She pointed out,happy to see that her mother was muttering something as the others agreed. Chapter two: “Hey mom!” A happy voice made her jump, she had been thinking about something now patchpaw just made her forget it! But it wasn’t her fault. “I was wondering do you want to hunt together just us,dad,hazelpaw,brownstone,and pathtail go on a walk?” “Mom please please please?” Hazelpaw was suddenly the one pleading. “Fine” she was hesitant about to join the hunt but she walked out of the tunnel anyway she regretted it the moment she smelled shadow clan,since it could be a piece of prey she followed it,but it wasn’t… Chapter three: She kept following the scent with her family watching her while she gasped quietly to find shadow clan! “HEY GTE OUT OF HERE!” She screeched as she lunged out of the ferns and followed them to the thunder path not hearing any warning a monster hit her she saw her family but it was all such a blur “tell the clan I’m very loyal to them and also I love you and you guys” she woke up in a sparkly place “welcome to starclan” Hope you enjoyed!!! I loved the book! Bye! Sincerely, Hazel star of kind clan see description in into the wild bye! ✌🏿✌🏾✌🏽✌🏼✌🏻✌️✌🏿✌🏾✌🏽✌🏼✌🏻✌️✌🏿✌🏾✌🏽✌🏼✌🏻✌️✌🏿✌🏾✌🏼✌🏼✌🏻✌️I guessed so
5By kasy268Thanks for telling me! Bai! Be careful on Roblox (crazy crap has been happening, and I’ve heard Tubers is back!!!) Espresso CatI’m rewriting chapter one
5By eveveve eveveAnd I’m renaming the book- now to be called Silent Echos. Here is the new chapter one! 😌 ———————————————— Ivykit bounced excitedly around her mother, Briarleaf, almost stumbling over her paws. “Ivykit, if you don’t stop scampering around then I’ll make sure your apprenticeship will be held back for a moon!” Briarleaf scolded her with an irritated look on her face . “Okay I’ll stop.” Ivykit was to excited to care if she got in trouble by her mother, she was so happy to finally become an apprentice. Briarleaf cleaned Ivykit’s fur for a moment then moved on to Ivykits littermates, Spottedkit and Mistkit. “All three of you must look somewhat clean for your apprenticeships!” Their mother meowed through a mouthful of fur. “Let us clean our own fur!” Mistkit wailed. “Yea let us groom our own fur we’re old enough to do it ourselves now!” Spottedkit protested. Ivykit purred with amusement then wandered to peek through the nursery entrance, waiting for the hunting patrol to return to camp. As soon as they came through the gorse tunnel she could smell the prey they had brought. She gazed at the fat, juicy looking pieces of prey that looked so delicious she could taste them from the nursery. “Okay little ones”Her mother appeared from the nursery. “it’s time for the clan meeting to begin.” And right at that moment the clan leader, Countingstar, stepped out of his den and yowled for a clan meeting. *** Ivypaw listened to her clan mates chanting her new name in the warm sunlight. She has just been made an apprentice, being apprenticed to Cloudstripe, one of the clans most smart, cunning, honorable and loyal warriors. Mistypaw was waiting impatiently beside her mentor, Stormshadow, a muscular dark grey tom with big jet black paws. Now it was Spottedkits turn to be made an apprentice. “Spottedkit step forward.” Countingstar meowed. Instantly Spottedkit stepped forward with a nervous glance at her sisters. Ivypaw nodded with sympathy for Spottedkit. “From this day forward” Countingstar meowed touching his nose to Spottedkit’s forehead. “This apprentice will be known as Spottedpaw. Hollowflight you will be her mentor, I trust that you will share with her your dedication to your clan, your quick mind and excellent hunting skills.”Spottedpaw lightly stepped over to Hollowflight and touched noses with him. “Spottedpaw! Spottedpaw! Spottedpaw!” The clan began to yowl. Countingstar waited for the chanting to settle down then meowed “This clan meeting is now over.” Ivypaw blinked at Cloudstripe and wondered what they were going to explore. “Can we go explore the territory please?” Mistpaw begged. “Yes of course! We might even have time to practice hunting.” Cloudstripe meowed. Briarleaf padded over to the six cats and looked at her kits with pride. “You better behave and follow your mentors orders. This is the first time you are going out into the forest and I don’t want one of to get hurt. Understand?” She turned to Mistpaw. “Yes we’ll behave!” Mistpaw meowed with a gleam of mischief in her eyes. Spottedpaw rolled her eyes as of saying Mistpaw probably wasn’t going to behave. “Yes we will all behave and follow our mentors orders,Briarleaf.” “Good.” Briarleaf eyed the kits one last time before they set out into the forest. Welp that’s it how you all enjoyed the new chapter one! -CloudstripeCat On the cover
5By PantherstarofSkyclanLionpaw Chapter 3 Darkpelt gaped at the two apprentices in horror. He turned and raced back up the tunnel he had come from. “Who’s there?” Lionpaw’s voice echoed. “Don’t worry about Lionpaw you were probably imagining something.” Heatherpaw meowed. “I do what I want.” He hissed. “Don’t try to stop me.” “You do what you want huh?” Lionpaw hissed. “I’ll die if it means stopping you from seeing Honey-“ “Says the one who used to visit Heatherpaw in the tunnels!” Darkpelt screeched. Lionpaw stared at him in disbelief before turning and running back to camp.Where is my play set?
4By ShuperShupperI bought this dark river toy on amazon for 334567$. It was a real bargain! But when it came instead of the great toy I was expecting, I got a book! Now the book was actually pretty good but not good enough to keep, so I poured maple syrup on it and felt it to my teddy bear. I think teddy liked it! - Mr BirdbrainOMGAWESOME

5By JoeSFI've only read, like 11 chapters and I'm already psyched about how Heatherpaw and Lionpaw meet in the tunnels. It makes so much more sense and I can't wait until I get to the part where Rosekit and Toadkit are born. I want to know more about the WindClan kits lost in the tunnels. You know, I've read most of the books in the"Power of Three" and the "Omen of the Stars" and this makes only Dawn and Fading Echoes. I have one manga book(Graystripe#1 manga) and it makes more sense. A lot more sense. And now I get how Jaypaw meets Rock. Everything makes more sense now!MUST READ well.. it's a good but.. it's kinda boring😬
5By #Hashbrown🍫🍫dis book is good it's just that.. it doesn't really have anything to do with the prophecy and it kinda gets boring. You can disagree with me I don't really care🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Awesome
