Intro:
Towering trees on the edge of a mossy forest, stripped bare and polished to the smooth white texture of driftwood by years of briny air, ringed by a small golden meadow, abundant in all sorts of small creatures and brimming with soft lavender wildflowers are our home. The pounding surf is our music, the salt our spice. We live on the brink of both the world of water and the steadfast land.
WE ARE TEMPESTCLAN
We come with the storms, and can vanish just as quickly. We strike with the power of thunder and the speed of the sea. We are as sturdy as the ocean cliffs, yet as fleeting as the surf that carves our world.
WE ARE TEMPESTCLAN
DO YOU DARE JOIN US?
Plot: The four clans, Tempest, Mountain, Marsh, and Sun have lived peacefully by the ocean cliffs for generations. But, a prophecy has revealed itself to the cats, one that hints at horrific events to come. There is no way to stop them, but a clue to how to survive them lays in the deep past. Now, a few young apprentices have to figure out mysteries that haunted even the oldest elder-how did the clans come to live here? Why did they leave the home the elders tell stories about? What happened at that lake, that shattered the very soul of the four clans? To save their clan, and all of the others, what dark secrets will the young cats have to bring to light?
PS-This story is set after the main story at the *SPOILER ALERT* lake. The clans are now more tribal/primal and the names are different (hence "Moon" "Ocean" "Sun" "Marsh") and also slightly beach-themed. Please pick a name that sort-of fits.
-Zoe
Camp: TempestClan camp is a large, island-like rock. The dens are in holes and indents in the rock. When the tide comes in, it is practicly inaccessible, the only way to travel being a fallen log that tumbled off the cliffs and somehow wedged itself between the cats' island and a rocky outcropping on the cliff. When the tide goes out, the rock sits on a stretch of sandbars and tidepools, from which the cars get most of their food. If the tidepools are empty, the cats can climb the fallen log, then up a small path on the cliff to a meadow.(see intro) More on the other clans will come later!

I padded out of the medicine cat den, but Aspenleaf remained inside. I was still shaken up by the dream we'd had after visiting the Seacrystal.
A misty-gray she-cat padded up, her pelt swirling with darker, classical tabby stripes, and sparks danced around her paws. Her glowing silver eyes pierced even the starlight. A voice wreathed around my ears...
The fire, the storm, the rock, the sea, A past forgotten, returned shall be, The pool of shadows will spell their doom, But memories can help to pierce the gloom...
The words had left me with a feeling of dread, and I was surprised my fur wasn't sticking up! "Oceanpaw, are you going on a hunt?" I meowed, trying to shake off the horror that clung like raindrops to my pelt. "Yeah, you wanna come?" "Sure! Are we going fishing or to the clearing?" "Embergaze is going to show Goldenpaw and me a good tide-pool Sharkfin told him about when she came back from patrol." "Great! I haven't been to the shore in ages it seems!"
I padded after Oceanpaw, already starting to feel better. Nothing like some fish or crabs to take your mind off of impending doom!

ooc- Hey tzara have you ever read warriors? It's pretty easy to rp and the warriors website can probably give you all of the info you need, unless zoe knows any good fansites or anything that could be helpful?
oh yeah, I don't know what season it is. Is spring okay?
Bic- Oceanpaw stood on the shore as the slight breeze ruffled her fur and the salty sea air filled her nose. She ran over to the waves and jumped around in the water. She loved getting wet. She was laughing and enjoying her-self until she felt a sharp pain in her tail and yowled. She whipped around to find a crab clamped its claw onto her tail and didn't look as if it would let go. "Embergaze! Embergaze, help!" She yowled running over to her mentor with her tail dragging on the ground. Embergaze growled in annoyance as she turned and tried to help Oceanpaw. "Why do you always have to slow us down?" she muttered.

OOC-*chuckle* tis alive!!!
BIC-Moonpaw lept over to Oceanpaw. "What on earth are you doing?! Have you found a new fishing technique? You're supposed to EAT crabs, not play with them!" Embergaze chuckled. Oceanpaw turned around, glowering at Moonpaw, who simply smiled back at her. Once the crab incident was over, all three cats padded out to the tidepools. On the way there, Moonpaw told Oceanpaw about the prophecy. "What? What is that supposed to mean?" "SHHH! Not so loud, Embergaze can't find out that I told you! And I have no idea what it means, that's why I'm telling you!!"

"Do you have a secret?" Moonpaw and Oceanpaw nearly leapt a yard off the ground when they were startled by the timid, gentle voice behind them. Both of them wheeled around to see familiar, doleful blue eyes and cloud-white fur. "Oh, it's you." Moonpaw muttered as Cloudfoot's tail twitched in nervous agitation. "Do you have a secret?" Cloudfoot repeated swiftly.

Morningkit watched the other kits playing with their father who had just come back from a successful hunt. She felt a pang in her heart that a kit as young as herself would not normally understand. Yet, she knew what it was from. She envied the other kits who's fathers loved them so much. She envied them for the mother that was all theirs. She heard footsteps behind her and turned around.
