Book 10 - Chapter 24

Mousetail wandered over to the fresh prey pile and searched it until he found the animal he was looking for his presentation. He grabbed a couple mice around the clearing and padded around giving a mouse to Pinkpoppy, Darkflower, and Whiteberry. Then he went and stood at the center of the clearing to begin. "Clan mates I have the warrior name Mousetail, and there is a reason that the animal that I can hunt the best is the mouse. It is because I know how mice hunt and run away from predators. I can see form their vantage point, I can see out of a mouse's eyes if I try hard enough. I will demonstrate. Mousetail closed his eyes and when he opened his eyes he was sitting on the ground at Pinkpoppy's feet, he shook out his fur and in a second Mousetail had replaced the mouse at Pinkpoppy's feet but he was as small as a mouse. The clan stared at him, he then moved to Darkflower. He stood up and shook out his fur returning to his normal size, "I use this trick to help me hun the mice, it could also help for getting underneath small spaces, or just seeing what is under something that small." He once again disappeared with a blink of his eyes. He reappeared at Whiteberry's feet and then he scurried under a bush and reappeared with a long pale pink ribbon. All the cats believed Mousetail from then on and he was able to help the clan in other ways now that they knew his secret and power. 

Book 10 - Chapter 23

Every cat turned their head to the center of the clearing anticipating Fernflash's story. Fernflash turned and got ready to start her story, "I was born in the clan and as you know I was offered the position of medicine cat but I refused. I would much rather be a warrior, hunting and fighting for the clan instead of having to pick plants and heal our clan mates. I am not saying I feel to important to me a medicine cat, it is just I could never pick a plant or harm a plant by picking one even if it was to heal one of my clan mates. That is why I refused to be a medicine cat. The reason that I refused to be a medicine cat is as you know I had some siblings, a brother and a sister. Then one day as you know they were going to meet out ancestors to talk about some important matter to the clan, but then they never returned to the clan. So I went and searched for them, I found their foot prints and the direction they walked in to return home, but no cats. So I followed the tracks even as the veered of course towards the mountains, after walking for a day or two I found them. They were standing behind a large black cat who seemed not to come from this world, so I am assuming that he had come from the Dark Forest, he said that the Dark Forest needed to test something out and that these two cats were the perfect two to be tested on. The cat glowed like the night sky and then it shot something at the two cats but before it reached the cats something intercepted them and they hit the beam of light before the were supposed to, and they were turned into plants. The beam of light should have given them powers of a plant but instead they became plants. I brought them to our ancestors and they said that unless I could get the cat that casted the spell then most likely the cats were going to be like that until they joined the stars. I still have the two plants, I have taken care of them since, hoping one day I might be able to turn them back." The clan gathered around Fernflash and her plants and then they wandered back to their nests for the evening.

Book 10 - Chapter 22

Breezebolt walked towards the center of the clearing where every cat that was to share a story stood, "Tonight it is my turn to share a story with the clan, As you know my name when I was first born was Breezekit. There is a reason, as you know every kitten is supposed to be named for a certain reason, there is a reason that I was named Breezekit. It wasn't just because I was a fast kit. The reason was I could and can still control breezes. My mother requested that I was named Breezebolt because I could conjure breezes that came in bolts like lightening bolts but made of air. The nursery was always very breezy when I was around so my mother created a nest just outside the nursery for me to sleep in because the other kittens weren't able to sleep with my breezes. I was young at the time and I couldn't control my power so many times my mother had me stay away from the other kittens to keep from any incidents occurring." The clan looked thoughtful before Cherrypaw spoke up, "Is that why when we are sometimes practicing certain skills that any warrior should have that there is some sudden gusts of wind that move practice prey around, or so I could mimic how I should hunt so smells aren't drifted to the prey?" she asked. Breezebolt nodded why not use my power to help the cats in my clan become warriors." The clan nodded to Breezebolt's statement, and they looked forward to Fernflash's story who was going to be sharing the next day. 

Book 10 - Chapter 21

Skyleap to had a story to share with the clan. "Cats of Fishclan this is not only my story but someone else's I will tell it how it impacts me. I have kept a secret from every cat, even my mate. As you know I have agreed to take in the kitten Mosskit. I am letting Nightblaze take care of him however. There is a reason for that, he didn't tell me truth about his parents but I felt that by giving a kitten shelter is the way I could repay Fishclan because I was once in his position. I was clan born as I believe Mosskit is, although I am not positive. I was born and then my parents abandoned me, telling me that it was for the best, and that if they could ever come back for me they would. They promised me that if they could come back and claim me as their own then I would be welcomed, they only problem was they were in a tough situation and having a kitten known to the enemy would make it worse, especially if I was kidnapped. So I was raised by a cat that I believed to be true family to me until I was given the truth by one of our ancestors. I believe that raising Mosskit I will be able to right the wrong, it was wrong of his parents to leave him all alone without a word of their trace, I didn't want what happened to me to happen to him so I helped him remember some of his early kitten hood even though I still don't know who his parents are. I promised the clan that I would forever be loyal and a current queen my duty is to raise kits, and to raise a kit that was put in the same situation as I was, was what I had to do." The clan nodded looking from Mosskit to Skyleap. 

Book 10 - Chapter 20

Rowanfur watched the clan with narrow eyes before standing up and padding towards the center of the clearing to began his story. "As you know I wasn't born in this clan but I am clan born. I was born when there were 4 clans in the forest. As you know every cat only gets one chance to live, I was an exception to that statement. I was born 4 times within a week of each other. I was born in all 4 clans. I was able to train in one clan one day and then turn back time and train in another clan. I was named the same thing in every clan. I learned all the ways of every clan. I even looked the same. Then one day I was told by our ancestors that I had to choose which clan I was going to live in forever no knowing that all the clans would merge together one day. As you know I chose Mossclan, so I had to fake my deaths in every other clan and the spirits told me that I when I woke up I was going to be a kitten in Mossclan.  All the other clans would forget my existence in their clan only that I was a kitten named Rowankit in Mossclan. Time was turned back so Mossclan didn't remember there being 2 of me. I was allowed to keep my memories and truly experience the joy of living and being a benefit to a clan. It was amazing however I have always held an advantage over the other clans in battle because I know the ways that every cat trained their apprentices. I never spied or betrayed the clans that I had seen glimpses of lives in, otherwise that would lead to suspicion. I  have allowed been a loyal warrior, and I have used all of the skills of every clan to help the current Fishclan grow stronger and survive." All the cats looked curiously at Rowanfur, and soon many cats were asking him what it was like, and if he was telling the truth. They began to quiz him on all the clans, and soon the clan realized that he was telling the truth about his past just like every other cat who has shared a story. 

Book 10 - Chapter 19

Blossomfur looked around and stared at the clan cats looked at her and she began her story, "I have a secret and a story to share myself. As you know when we were traveling 4 cats working for Darkfinch tricked us. They gave us names and a situation and we believed that they are being truthful. I do believe that they were being truthful about their names though, because the one cat Cherry as she said her name was looked familiar. Now I remember where I remember seeing Cherry. Do you remember how I had a friend named Berry? Well remember he went and lived with a cat named Cherry? I know that Cherry lived in an human home, and Berry joined her. I know this sounds crazy but I believe that Berry and Cherry both went and joined Darkfinch. When I first met Darkfinch it was in a tunnel, I went and rescued Berry that night. The only thing was it didn't seem like a rescue. Berry was well fed and happy, and he wasn't locked in the cage he was sitting there happily. I think that the only way Darkfinch has been able to find us is because of me. Berry has always been able to tell how I am, what  am feeling without having to lift a paw to do it. He was had this connection with me, that is so strong nothing can break it. He has always been able to tell where I am and what I am doing. If Berry is working for Darkfinch then there is nothing that can stop them from finding us, except for one thing. If I can get it to work it can break any bond there is. I just don't want to do it unless I absolutely have to. I have always liked knowing that Berry can tell everything about me, it mad sit easier to talk to him." The clan couldn't believe it, but they were ready to do anything to help Blossomfur break free of the bond she had with Berry if Blossomfur ever gave the word that she wanted to. 

Book 10 - Chapter 18

Ashstorm looked out at the clan and waited for the leaders of the clan to give her the signal to start her story when they did she began, "As everyone of the clan knows I am a dedicated and loyal warrior of Fishclan. I always have been and I always will be. I know how Ashstar died and I know that there is more to that story then Littlemouse or Ashstar said there was. I know this because when you share the beginning of a name with some one, or you are connected by our ancestors you can tell how they are feeling and how they are doing and what happened to them at all times. I know that Ashstar didn't receive her 9 lives when she went to receive them when Tigerstar left the clan with the tigers. She wasn't considered a true leader of the clans and she wasn't to receive her 9 lives. She returned home to her clan and she kept up the ways of a clan leader like any other leader would. She faked having 9 lives for the sake and the good of her clan. She than came down with green cough almost overnight. She fell deadly ill, and had fevers and chills. Through the night, the next morning a leader found her curled in a ball refusing to move. She asked them to get Littlemouse for he had seen her leadership ceremony. A few moments later she died, and then she didn't rise. I guess you could say that I have some of the powers of our ancestors and I know what is going to happen and what is happening with our ancestors because the cat that I share a name with is one of our ancestors. Appledawn and Applepaw this will happen once Applepaw will receive her warrior name. Blacktail and Blackmint I am sure you have noticed this connection between the two of you.. Whiteclaw and Whiteberry, even though Whiteclaw you weren't born in the clan there will be some connection. Mossfur and Mosskit, if Mosskit you were born in the clan than you will have the connection once Mosskit you are a warrior. Even Silverfrost and Silverpaw. This connection is a bond that can never be broken, and it is what makes up the clan. Be warned however sharing a name and having the power to know what is happening is not the best power in the world." All the cats sat there staring in amazement when the cats with the same names realized that it was true.
