Quotes by Erin Hunter

I am Midnight(cats stare dumbfounded)

The cats at the edge of the clearing were staring up at the sky, their eyes huge with fear. As he looked upward, Fireheart heard the beating of wings and saw a hawk circling above the trees, its harsh cry drifting on the air. At the same time he realized that one cat had not taken shelter; Snowkit was tumbling and playing in the middle of the open space.Snowkit! Speckletail yowled desperately.

[Fireheart] was interrupted by a screech from Cloudtail. Fireheart! Fireheart, Brightpaw isnt dead!Fireheart spun around and raced across the clearing to crouch beside Brightpaw. Her white-and-ginger fur, which, she had always kept so neatly groomed, was spiky with drying blood. On one side of her face the fur was torn away, and there was blood where her eye should have been. One ear had been shredded, and there were huge claw marks scored across her muzzle.

Its coming, a battle between Starclan and The Dark Forest and every warrior will be called upon to fight.

Come on,he meowed to Greystripe.Lets go home.

I suppose.” Mousefur sniffed. “No doubt it’ll be up to me to teach them manners. Kits nowadays don’t know how to show any respect.”Jayfeather’s whiskers twitched with amusement.“Don’t you believe it,” Purdy whispered. “She was teaching Lilykit and Seedkit how to reach under the wall of the warriors’ den and catch stray tails yesterday.

-I am willing to die for my own clan.-Fireheart

The greatest hunter is one who knows how to wait.

He gave his life to save the thing that mattered most to him: his Clanmates,” he meowed softly. “He truly has the stars at his paws now. You will see him again, when it is time.

Why do Twolegs do anything? If we knew that, our lives would be a lot easier.

Twolegs are mad. Even the smallest kit knows that.

I know there’s something troubling you. I’m not going to ask what it is, if you don’t want to tell me. But remember that I’m your mother. Nothing you say could ever shock me or make me love you less.

There was a pause as Leopardstar strained to take a breath, and Mistyfoot half rose, ready to call for help. Then Leopardstar relaxed again. I am sorry not to have known the joy of having kits. There was a time when I thought it might happen, but it was not to be. Her words faded away as though she was picturing something she had dreamed of long ago. Perhaps it was for the best. But I would have been proud to call you my daughter, Mistyfoot.

Trees dont sneak on you.-Brook Where Small Fish Swim

Silverstream: You idiot!!! What are you doing in my territory???Graystripe:...Drowning?Silverstream: Cant you do that in your own territory?Graystripe: Ah, but who would rescue me there?

Ivypool felt her mouth drop open Hollyleaf? But...you youre dead! Obviously not, the newcomer replied with an edge to her voice.

The time for lies and secrets is over, she meowed. The truth must come out. Starclan was wrong not to tell you who you were a long time ago.

You have no understanding of the warrior code at all. What youve done here proves it. Youve risked the lives of young kits... by leaving them alone here. Anything could have happened to them. They could have been lost. They could have died. My kits could have died. But you didnt just betray me. You betrayed the entire Clan. You did all this... and you never considered how it would make any of us feel. The Clan is a family, Sol. A community. And youre incapable of thinking about anyone but yourself.

Our elders, and our elders’ kin, and their kin before them, fought to keep Sunningrocks in our territory. Many of them lost their lives, giving up their last breath for stones that belong to us. Can we give up where they did not, turn tail and flee when they kept fighting so that their kits could hunt and play and bask on these rocks? Will you fight with me now, in honor of all our elders and all our unborn kits?

Fire will save the Clan, she murmured, and Fireheart remembered the mysterious prophecy that he had heard from his earliest days in ThunderClan. You never understood, did you? Bluestar went on. Not even when I gave you your apprentice name, Firepaw. And I doubted it myself, when fire raged through our camp. Yet I see the truth now. Fireheart, you are the fire who will save ThunderClan.
