Okay, people. What I'm making here is a Warriors fan-story about a cat in ThunderClan that is a werewolf. (Er... Were-...Cat? No, that would translate to Man-Cat... It's Cat-Wolf, then? Hm. Feline-cat... XD) Anyways, he has a rough path after he becomes an apprentice. I'll add onto this as I write it. Maybe I'll even make it an animated series it when I'm done! Anyways, I'm open to suggestions! Thanks, and Scratch on!

~Prologue~
A brown tom stalked through the undergrowth, his eyes concerned. With all this business with the others, he may as well change his den closer to the meeting area. Looking ahead, he saw the MoonPool up ahead. He stopped as he heard a rustle behind him, from the ferns he just passed through. "There you are, Yellowleaf," He muttered, "I was afraid you were going to be late," "I still don't know why you couldn't wait for me, Bananaclaw." She grunted. "This is important. What if it leads to the clans being wiped out?" He demanded, beginning to walk again. "What, after Bears, Badgers and Twolegs coming through? They will live." And she followed. "That was with us to protect them. Now they're as helpless as abandoned kits. Let's hurry," He said, deciding to change the subject. "I can see them waiting" And they bounded up the trail and down the boulders around the pool. "We apologize for being late," Yellowleaf said.

Chapter One
Wolfkit stared at Owltalon happily. “So I can help clean the elders’ den?” He squeaked excitedly. “Of course,” Owltalon said, “You can even go help fetch moss, if you stay close to the apprentices.” “I will, Owltalon!” Wolfkit promised.
“Thistlepaw!” Wolfkit called, “Owltalon says I can help clean the elders’ den!” Thistlepaw sighed. “Okay, thanks. Here, you can help clear out the old moss, and I’ll go get the new stuff.
“Okay! I won’t let you down!” And he started to try to roll the moss into a ball. “Mouse-dung!” He cursed; It all fell apart into a big mess! “How do the other apprentices keep it together?” Looking around quickly, he saw some moss soaked in water. He rushed over to investigate. Maybe the water will make it stick, Wolfkit thought. So he took the moss and ran back over. Just then, the medicine cat apprentice, Sunpaw, padded out of the den.
“Where did that soaked moss go?” He grumbled, “It was right here.”
Then, looking around, he saw Wolfkit with his dripping moss. “Sunpaw! Why did this moss crumble?” Wolfkit asked, sounding innocent,
“I was trying to roll it up, but it crumbled!”
“Is that why you took my moss?”
Sunpaw demanded, trotting over. “Well, here’s the problem! It’s way too old. Look at how dry it is! I’ll have to speak with the apprentices about this.” He grumbled. “But for now, we must clean this up. I’ll go get leaves to wrap them up in. And, turning around, he bounded back into the medicine den, reappearing a moment later with leaves, grass stems and some cobwebs. “I’ll wrap them up, Wolfkit. You can go play with the other kits.” “Yes, Sunpaw,” Wolfkit murmured sadly, walking back to the nursery. Peering in, he saw the other kits waking up. “Wolfkit! Why did you go out without me?” His brother, Mudkit, demanded. “Well, if you wanted to come so badly, don’t sleep in!” Wolfkit retorted. “Well, you two are up now, so you can go play,” their mother, Mistwhisker, told them. “Let’s go!” Mudkit squeaked excitedly, scrambling out of their nest and bounding to the den entrance. “Wait for me, Mudkit!” Wolfkit exclaimed, bounding after him. Outside, he saw the clan waking up; Apprentices bounding over to their mentors to ask for training, warriors grooming themselves and getting fresh-kill, elders stretching out on rocks, and Sunpaw coming back into camp with herbs. Climbing gently down the boulders and into the center of camp with Mudkit close behind, Wolfkit saw the deputy, Rabbittail, sharing tongues with the leader, Poppystar. “You know, you should make them apprentices soon,” Wolfkit could just barely hear Rabbittail whisper to Poppystar. “They are about six moons,” Poppystar agreed. Wolfkit glanced at Mudkit, ears pricked. Mudkit nodded happily. Wolfkit was just about to jump into the sky from happiness. Was it really that soon that they would be apprenticed? Trying to impress them, he turned around and leaped onto Mudkit to play-fight him.

Post this on DeviantArt or FanFiction. Not many people are interested in this forum. Not trying to sound mean, either.

Chapter Two
Wolfkit stumbled into their den sleepily. After a long day of playing, all he wanted to do was sleep. Collapsing in his nest, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wolfkit woke at a beautiful yet blood-curdling howl that split the air. He shivered. Maybe I can ask Mistwhisker what it is, Wolfkit thought. But opening his eyes, he saw himself in the Warriors’ Den. It was mostly empty, with only a few other warriors sleeping around him. Looking around at them, he noticed that they were the same size as him. If I’m a warrior, I can see for myself! He thought. So, getting up, he bounded out of the den and out of camp. In the forest that he had only seen a few times, (When warriors took him out a few times,) we saw a beautiful full moon. Something locked his gaze to it; Then he froze. Something’s wrong. He wanted to run as far away from camp as he could. He bounded through the forest that seemed to stretch on forever. The trees thinned out and he was soon on plains with hills that go into the sky. He didn’t stop until he was at the highest point. Then, skidding to a stop at the highest peak, he saw an outline of a she-cat who looked strikingly like Sunpaw. She motioned with her tail up to the moon. He sat down and looked up at it. The very sight of it caused him to let out a choked yet beautiful howl. A howl that woke poor little Wolfkit up, and caused him to look around. Then there was yet another howl. Looking up, he saw Mudkit up on his paws, ears pricked. “What do you suppose it is?” Wolfkit whispered to him, padding over. “I think we should find out,” He murmured back, padding to the den entrance. “Are you sure that we should do this?” Wolfkit asked, sounding frightened. “Of course! No cat will ever find out!” And stalked out of the den carefully. Wolfkit decided that he should follow to help. Walking out of the den, he saw that the moon was still full. This time, however, he had no feeling. He didn’t feel the need to run. He silently padded with Mudkit until they were at the edge of the lake that is the very middle of the entire territory. He heard the howl again, and it was quite close. He looked at Mudkit, with a scared expression. Mudkit didn’t look back, but kept walking. At the very edge of the lake, they saw a most horrific sight; half a dozen gigantic beasts with glowing silver fur in the moonlight, drinking in the lake. Mudkit let out a low gasp, and they tried to turn around, but couldn’t move. They were frozen into place. After what seemed like moons, the wolves turned around.
“Run!” Wolfkit gasped. “Climb trees!” Mudkit replied, thinking quickly. They scrambled up to a tree. Sinking their claws into it, they scrambled up the bark and into the upper branches. “Do you think they’ll get us?” Wolfkit asked. “I don’t think so,” Mudkit replied, “But I don’t know if they’ll go away. We might need to sleep here!” “There’s nowhere TO sleep in a tree!” Wolfkit gasped. “I think there is. We just need to find a good spot.” And they looked around the best they could. “Mudkit! Mudkit!” Wolfkit squeaked, “I found a little den in the tree that we could sleep in!” “Are you sure that it’ll work?” Mudkit asked, “I mean, It’s really small.” “It’s enough for just the two of us!” Wolfkit retorted, climbing in. Mudkit followed reluctantly. “This is better then nothing,” Mudkit muttered. And they fell into a light sleep. Wolfkit woke at a scraping outside, and it took him a moment to remember that he was in the tree with Mudkit, hiding from the strange creatures outside. “Mudkit!” Wolfkit wailed quietly, “I think they’re getting up!” And he leaned to the back of the den. But who he saw outside was Rabbittail, looking confused. “What are you doing?” He demanded. “We came out here because we heard howling,” Wolfkit explained, “And hid up here because we found out it came from big, scary beasts!” “Those were wolves,” Rabbittail explained, “And we‘d best hurry if we don‘t want to get in trouble with them.” “Yes, Rabbittail,” Wolfkit murmured, turning to Mudkit, who was still sleeping. “Wake up, Mudkit, we’re going home!” But Mudkit still sat there, breathing lightly. “Mudkit!” Wolfkit gasped. “Come on! We’re going home!” “Sunpaw and Owltalon will help him,” Rabbittail told him, “But we must hurry. Come on” And Wolfkit nudged Mudkit at close to the entrance as possible, where Rabbittail grabbed him by the scruff and carried him down the tree. Wolfkit followed sadly. As he was padding in the undergrowth, he heard a rustle behind him. He turned around and gasped as he saw glowing eyes and heard a soft growl. “Rabbittail…?” He started, turning around, but seeing that Rabbittail was shortly ahead, and certainly didn’t hear him. Turning around, he fled and leaped onto Rabbittail’s back, claws in his fur. “Run, Rabbittail, there’s a wolf!” Wolfkit yowled. Rabbittail, after hearing this, charged ahead and into camp, skidding to a stop at the high ledge. Climbing off his back, Wolfkit saw Poppystar, sitting on a rock patiently. “What were you doing?” Poppystar asked calmly. “Mudkit and I were going to see what the howling was,” Wolfkit gasped, “And found out it was wolves, so we went and hid in a tree to spend the night, and then Rabbittail found us and took us home!” “We thought we scented kits out of our clan. You should be glad that we were coming back from the gathering. Now, as for Mudkit,” She nodded to the poor thing in Rabbittail’s mouth, “Will be seen to by Owltalon and Sunpaw. Now you may go back to your den; We already sent Mistwhisker back in there.” “Yes, Poppystar,” He nodded, turning away and starting to walk over. He paused and rushed back, wanting to ask the question that stuck to his mind all day. “Poppystar? When will I be apprenticed?” He asked. Poppystar thought a moment. “When your brother is better,” “Thank you, Poppystar!” He exclaimed, and, turning his back, he bounded back to the Nursery. Bounding up the boulders, he made his way into the den. Stumbling back into his nest sadly, he fell into a deep sleep with no dreams.

Amazing! This is one of the best Warriors fanfictions I have ever read. I'll let my friend (she loves Warriors, too) know about this fanfiction and link her to it!

Chapter Three
“Wake up, Wolfkit,” Mistwhisker murmured, “We have to go check on Mudkit.” Wolfkit yawned, half-asleep. He had at first forgotten why Mudkit wasn’t there; then he remembered yet again the terrible night that happened, and scrambled to his paws to follow Mistwhisker out of the den. Bounding over to the Medicine Cats’ den, he looked inside. And leapt back in terror at a shape that went flying at him. Flung on his back, he saw Mudkit standing over him. “There you are, sleepy paws!” He taunted happily, “I’ve been bored since sunrise!” “Mudkit! I thought you were really sick after what happened!” “No, he just went into shock,” a voice said inside. It was Sunpaw’s. “It usually lasts only a few hours, so he’s fine now.” “What were those things?” He asked, looking up. “They…” Sunpaw was cut off when Poppystar yowled, “Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey join here beneath the high ledge for a clan meeting!” And the two littermates bounded down to the center of the camp.
“We have two apprentices to appoint today,” She begun, “Mudkit, Wolfkit, step forward.” Wolfkit was so excited that he bounded up to the high ledge, and, without paying attention, ran smack into a boulder. Cats were purring, amused, as Wolfkit stepped back and looked up. “Mudkit, Wolfkit, until you two receive your full warrior names, you will be known as Mudpaw and Wolfpaw. Mudpaw, your mentor will be Rabbittail. Wolfpaw, yours will be Emeraldstreak.” Turning around, Wolfpaw saw a brown she-cat step towards him, her green eyes staring at him happily. Sitting beside her, he heard the crowd chant, “Wolfpaw! Mudpaw!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the ceremony, Wolfpaw and Mudpaw were taken into the forest by their mentors. The woods seemed much calmer; No howling, no chasing, no need for fear; That is, for them. The rodents and birds had better watch out. As they walked on, Wolfpaw heard Mudpaw anxiously ask, “Are there any of those scary things out here?” “You mean the wolves?” Rabbittail asked. “Wolves?!” Mudpaw screeched. “They’re called wolves??” “Yes. Don’t worry; they’re harmless,” Wolfpaw lied, “So they won’t go after us.” “See that bird?” Emeraldstreak asked, changing the subject. Wolfpaw nodded. “It’s called a robin. They’re a little tricky, so I’ll show you how you do it.” She dropped into a crouch, eyes fixed on her prey. Coming as near as she could, she sprang forward. A moment later she stood up with the little thing in her mouth. “That was great!” Wolfpaw squeaked, bouncing up and down. “Can you show us how to do it?”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After they were done hunting, they dropped their prey off at the fresh-kill pile. Wolfpaw was proud to bring down a shrew. “Get something to eat, and we’ll practice battle training,” Emeraldstreak told him. Choosing a small vole from the pile, Wolfpaw gulped it down. “You ready?” She asked, padding back over. “Can Mudpaw come?” Wolfpaw asked. “No, he’s seeing to the RiverClan Border with Rabbittail.” Sighing, Wolfpaw followed Emeraldstreak to the training hollow. As he stepped through the ferns, he gasped at the sight of a dusty clearing around him. Emeraldstreak walked to the end of the hollow and turned to face him. “You ready?” She challenged. “What are you going to teach me?” Wolfpaw asked. “The basics. Lunging, dodging, things like that.” And she flew at Wolfpaw and hit him a lot harder then he hoped. When he opened his eyes, he saw Emeraldstreak sitting next to him, looking quite concerned. “Are you okay?” She asked in a soft voice, “I hit you a lot harder then I meant to.” “I’m fine!” He exclaimed happily, jumping on top of her back. Letting out a little screech, she shook herself to get him off, but he clung on, kicking with his hind paws, claws sheathed. “That was excellent,” She panted after she finally got him off.

Thanks! X3 I was going to make it be where Mudpaw asked Poppystar to change Wolfkit's name, but I dunno what I'd do next, so I tossed that idea. x3 He'll be terrified enough if he finds out that Wolfpaw is a werewolf who mercilessly destroys on the full moon!

You're welcome! That would've been a funny twist. xD Yeah, poor Mudpaw. So, wait- did Wolfpaw get bitten or something, is that what turned him into a werewolf, or was he already one?

:3 He becomes a werewolf somehow by drinking rainwater from a strange wolf paw print. xD I dunno, I read it on wikipedia. Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werewolf XD It's hilarious with the ideas that they have. Like in one belief, "In Italy, France and Germany, it was said that a man or woman could turn into a werewolf if he or she, on a certain Wednesday or Friday, slept outside on a summer night with the full moon shining directly on his face." xD
