I have a plot idea. It came to my head whenever I remembered that Tallstar died in the BloodClan battle on this site. I think it starts out quiet good. Post any comments or anything about it.
Tallstar was down to his last life now, and already it was slowly draining from his body. He dodged another blow to the head from the dark red warrior, and countered with his own slash across the face. The cat screeched, gray eyes going red as blood poured from his eyes and cuts on his face. Tallstar hissed and swipped again. The opposing tom growled back and swipped as well. Both paws met in the air, ripping pads and pulling claws. Tallstar yowled loudly as a claw was nearly torn off, but eagerly swipped with his other paw, but that was a mistake. He fell to the ground, giving the cat just enough time to slash the back of his neck.
"Scrouge is dead!" came the horrific screech of an enemy cat. "He's dead!" There was an uproar, and Tallstar opened his eyes to see the tom turn and run away, terror in his eyes.
The battle was over.
Tallstar turned his nearly limp body around to see Firestar over the body of Scrouge. The young leader had done it. The threat to the forest was over. Tallstar sighed, knowing his spirit would sleep easy now that he knew his Clan would be safe.
"Tallstar!" came the cry of an apprentice. Tallstar looked up to see his own apprentice rushing toward him, a frightened look on her face. Wounds lined her body, but the beautiful snow white she-cat seemed to have plenty on fight left in her. "StarClan! Barkface! Help!"
"No...." rasped Tallstar, his eyes flickering. "No...I'm finished. And I'll die happy, knowing my Clan is safe." He took a shuddering breath, and the apprentice nearly started screaming, thinking her mentor was dead. But Tallstar opened his eyes. He looked over the apprentice shoulder, seeing Mudclaw growl at Barkface for helping a RiverClan apprentice, who rushed away, looking frightened. Then, Tallstar knew only one thing that would keep his spirit troubled. "Snowpaw...Mudfur...he doesn't have to heart to become leader....He's not the right one..." Tallstar watched, his eyes flickering when he saw Onewhisker pad up to Barkface once Mudclaw was gone, and the medicine cat nodded, calling back over the RiverClan apprentice. "Mudfur....is no longer my deputy....I call..." He stopped, feeling his life leave him, but he held fast. A shimmering figure of a cat appeared beside Snowpaw, a black she-cat, her amber eyes understanding. She nodded.
"Quickly," he heard, but the she-cat hadn't spoken. Tallstar nodded, closing his eyes. "I say this before my warrior ancestors...so that they may hear and approve my choice.." The light left Tallstar's eyes, and he felt himself give away to the darkness.
"Onewhisker...is the new...WindClan deputy."
Then, he let go. He felt himself free himself from his body, and when he opened his eyes again, he felt like a new cat, like he had when he first became a warrior. He picked himself up, his eyes shining with happiness as he pressed himself into his mother, and the two faded from the battle field.
"Tallstar!" the apprentice wailed, nudging his still body. "Tallstar! No!" Barkface lifted his head, looking toward the limp body of Tallstar. He gasped, and rushed over, apologzing to the RiverClan warrior he was helping.
Barkface pushed the apprentice aside gently, and nosed his leader gentle. Then, after a moment, he hung his head. "He's gone..."
The apprentice told no one of Tallstar's words, hoping when Mudclaw went to recieve his nine lives, that StarClan would forbad it. But to the apprentice horror, the Clan deputy came back as leader. Now, Snowpaw knew never to say what she heard, and since Tallstar's death, ignored it.
But now, the secret has came out.
Not by her own maw, of course.
StarClan spoke one night to Barkface.
Barkface stood before a large pool of water, the stars shimmering in it. One moment, he was alone, then the next, he was surrounded by the leaders of old. Bluestar was there. Crookedstar and Nightstar were there. And Tallstar stood on the lake, not touching the water.
Bluestar spoke; "Changes are coming, Barkface," she meowed, her voice grave as she gazed into the pool. "StarClan is challenged. It effects the forest as well as us."
Barkface lifted his gaze to look around, and gasp. The land around the lake was lush, like he imagined StarClan. But beyond that, the land was bare. Flat, with no undergrowth, grass or nothing. Prey was no where. Little land was left. Barkface nearly paniced. What would become of StarClan?
"Change is coming, Barkface," the leader meowed again, looking around as well. "StarClan is not the only one. Another tries to take hold, take the forest from us. But all is not lost, yet." The four leaders passed the sentence around before it dropped like mist. Barkface listened, transfixed.
"One will come with one kept secret. Blood will be spilt, the forest will split, and one will gain control." Then, before Barkface's very eyes, four cats appeared on the lake. Barkface felt his breath caught in his throat when he recongized all but one of them. A dark brown tabby, a jet black tom, a snow white tom, and a dark tabby tom smirked at the StarClan leaders, who hissed and spat back.
"What?" Barkface yowled in disbelief. He jumped up to fight, just as the leading tom leapt. But to Barkface's amazement, the tom flew right throw him.
"Miss me, Bluestar?" the tabby purred, eyes narrowed.
"Leave, Tigerstar!" she hissed, swipping at him. "You're not welcome here!"
"Never stopped us before!" the jet black tom meowed, facing Nightstar.
"PhantomClan will rule!" Tigerstar yowled at the top of his lungs before he leaped at Bluestar and the vision faded from Barkface's mind.
StarClan is in danger. PhantomClan grows stronger everyday, and if something doesn't happened, StarClan will be destroyed. It's up to the Clans to save their beloved StarClan before it's too late. But how?
TO BE CONTINUED
So what does everyone think? I thnk it's a good idea. It just came to my head while typing. If we don't use it here, I'll write a story about it. It's a great idea. To me it is. Tell me what you think!
I'm reminded of Shep, from my old site. ^^
I had a charrie named Dawncloud, who died. An evil spirit -Shepoklymenos- possessed her. He wants to control StarClan and the forest.
He was born in Egypt, but his mother ended up on a ship and came to a totally different twolegplace. She left Shep alone, and he wandered around. Then, he became evil. xD He joined the Clans as Blackfire, and, like Tigerstar, wanted to be leader. Except his tactics actually worked. But when he went to the Moonstone to claim the nine lives he felt were rightfully his -the ones he killed for-, StarClan, who was desperate to keep him from gaining more power and also did not want him dying and entering StarClan-- ever, cast his spirit out of his body and into a strange, foggy otherworld.
His body was found and presumed dead by his deputy later.
He wandered around in that otherworld for...maybe a thousand years, when another cat was thrown in as well. Well, Shep stole her shape somehow and escaped.
Because StarClan knew virtually nothing about the otherworld, the didn't know it was possible for a cat to steal another's shape and escape it.
So they lost track of Shep for many years while he lived out his life. Again.
StarClan found him again when he died, and they threw him into the otherworld again. But in their confusion, they hurled an innocent cat in as well. ((this cat was just in the act of dying, so it was an understandible mistake))
When StarClan realized their mistake, they removed the innocent RiverClan warrior -Dawncloud-, but in the greater confusion of that, the spirit of the RiverClanner and the spirit of Shep combined.
StarClan then realized that they had just released Shep, but could do nothing.
Cats began to notice the stars go out one by one as Shep hunted down and killed the StarClanners.
Again.
-deep breath- To make a lo-o-o-ong story short, This plot about StarClan being possibly taken over reminds me of Shepoklymenos.
o.o
I love it.
YEEE I LOVE BOTH IDEAS
Dead cats fighting dead cats...a battle larger than life! But err will the Starclan/Phantomclan cats be able to die?? If so, where will they go?
Possessed kittehs = fun
*takes out popcorn and waits*
Cool plotteh! Oh, and where's the joining board p/w?
Thanks guys. Sounds spooky Dance.
As for when StarClan wins, they PhatomClan cats go back to PhantomClan. But StarClan uses nearly all their power and traps them in there for good.
Other than that, I can't think of anything.....-sobs-
