With the release of The Fourth Apprentice, Warriors fans have begun to cook up new and exciting theories and possibilities about the rest of the series...Warning! Spoilers ahead!
Theory #1 - Forbidden Love?
Perhaps one of the most probable theories is the DovepawxTigerheart theory. During various points of The Fourth Apprentice possible hints are dropped.
On page 131 of The Fourth Apprentice, Tigerheart says to Dovepaw: "Don't worry, I'll protect you." Throughout the book he continues to tell Dovepaw he will keep her save. Dovepaw, however, does not return his feelings. She seems annoyed, claiming that she can protect herself.
Perhaps the largest hint is when the journeying cats are saying their farewells. Tigerheart's farewell towards Dovepaw is especially warm:
"With a sidelong glance at his Clanmates, Tigerheart bounded up to Dovepaw and rubbed his muzzle against hers. "I'll miss you," he whispered. "I'll see you at Gatherings, right?"
Dovepaw had just enough time to reply, "Yes, I'll miss you, too," Before Toadfoot beckoned the younger warrior away with a jerk of his head." - Page 288 of The Fourth Apprentice.
Hmm... more forbidden love?
Theory #2 - Leafpool's End?
Leafpool fans where disappointed in The Fourth Apprentice - Leafpool was little more then a side character, appearing only a handful of times in the entire book. This brought up the question - could the Erins be getting ready to permanently retire Leafpool?
Rumors have been flying around that Leafpool will die a heroic death in the next Warriors book, Fading Echoes. One of the most popular rumors is that Leafpool will die saving Icecloud - because she sees how much Lionblaze loved Icecloud.
Another possibiliy is that Breezepelt will murder Leafpool. In The Fourth Apprentice Breezepelt is furious about Jayfeather and Lionblaze being kits of Crowfeather and Leafpool. Breezepelt attempts to murder Poppyfrost during The Fourth Apprentice as a way to hurt Jayfeather. Perhaps Breezepelt would find that killing Leafpool would be a perfect way to truly hurt Lionblaze and Jayfeather?
Theory #3 - New Enemies?
In The Fourth Apprentice Honeyfern tells Jayfeather that the cats from The Place of No Stars are breaking through the barrier, and soon there will be an all out war between StarClan and the Dark Forest. Brokentail helped Breezepelt try to kill Jayfeather. It is suspected that Breezepelt is now on the Dark Forest's side.
Lionblaze becomes concerned when he sees Tigerheart fighting during the book. Lionblaze tells Jayfeather that Tigerheart was using a battle move Tigerstar had taught him. The two suspect that Tigerstar walks in Tigerheart's dreams.
It seems as if the cats of the Dark Forest are recruiting living allies. Who else will be drawn into the conflict? Theories have surfaced about Ivypaw being a recruit. This could be possible... Ivypaw isn't very happy in The Fourth Apprentice when Dovepaw is chosen to go on the journey to find the beavers. I would imagine that Ivypaw would be pretty jealous should she discover her sister's part in the prophecy...
Do you have any theories about the new series? Post here! More theories will be posted soon! Also keep a look out for Ravenpaw theories - to be posted soon!

Hey, I just had another theory! You know how Brokentail, Tigerstar, and Hawkfrost were staring at Poppyfrost's new kits like they wanted to kill them? I wonder... Could those kits have something special about them too? Maybe they aren't the kin of Firestar, but is it possible that they could be part of another prophecy? Why would the Dark Forest cats target just those certain kits? It seems suspicious.

I MISSED HONEYFERN SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH! I LOVED HER! SHE WAS MY FAVORITE! :'( (ps i forgot about the caps key until i got to "she was my favorite" LOL!)
o and silverstar, maybe if tigerheart and dovepaw end up mating maybe dovepaw, lionblaze, and jayfeather won't be in the prophecy anymore. maybe those kits will be. (maybe not)
sorrelpaw, have u ever noticed how many mistakes the erins make when writing the books? check out the cbox post for my realllllllyyyyyyy long comment about it :)
i have another theory. it's a pretty crazy one, but at the end of the Fourth Apprentice book, it gives you a short message about fading echoes. it says a mysterious visitor will whisper promises in one cats dreams, and it'll result in a tremendous one no cat will believe. I think one of the Dark Forest cats will be the visitor, and could they possibly visit..... Ivypaw? I mean, i've always had this theory that Ivypaw would turn evil and go beserk or something. this series is going to be dark after all....

1st Theory Comment:
I think they would be a cute couple! Go TigerXDove!
2nd Theory Comment:
Breezepelt could kill Leafpool. Good possibility. Actually, I think she would save Icecloud, because she sees how much ICECLOUD loves Lionblaze, and she wants her love to work out and not fail like HER forbidden relationship. It might REALY hurt bad if Breezepelt kills Leafpool, because they will relize how much they love her, but it will be too late.
3rd Teory Comment:
It also states in the book that Lionblaze thinks that Tigerheart only is with Tigerstar for the same reasons Lionblaze originaly was: To become a better fighter to help his clan. I believe that. Same thing for Breezepelt, but he has so much anger and hate that he doesn't know what he's doing. For example, when Poppyfrost said that you shouldn't kill a medicine cat, but Breezepelt said he didn't care. One wierd thing is that he said he was doing it to be loyal to his clan. Wierd, right?
Comment on Silverstar's 1st Comment:
They probably aren't special. They were there for the reason that Lionblaze said. If they die, so that they can raise it as a Dark Forest Warrior for the the war between the Dark Forest, StarClan, and the Clans.
Lots of typing! LOL.

Sorrelpaw we missed you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!! I agree with Dovepaw+Tigerheart. It's possible.
Leafpool will somehow be important later on, I know that. I think the whole series of OOTS, I don't think that rumor is true.
oohh! And they might trick the kits into being eveil, too!
Theory:
The cats of the dark forest will manipulate the clan cats, and it those cats+ the darkforest cats will be against the remaining cats and starclan in an epic battle.
Honeyfern shouldn't have died, Poppyfrost should've.
Dovepaw must have been different from lion and jay, because of the new prophecy. Maybe she will be the one who gives the clans many moons of peace.
Hopefully Ivypaw gets over jealousy.
Does anyone know where Ashfur went up too? Starclan? I think not.
Maybe Hollyleaf is dead, but she comes back alive with the darkforest cats.
Ph, and the trick the kits comment I meant the darkforest cats would.
You must really be happy that u have so many followers and fans on this blog.
I think it was the suspense that you were gone so long that got you 71 followers. Impressive.
Does everyone know what the book cover of Battles of the Clans looks like? (If you don't, go to my blog.) Well, I think it is Blackstar leading his clan into battle. Does everyone know what the cover of SkyClan's Destiny looks like? (If you don't, go to my blog.) Who do you think it is?

Hey Silverstar, would you mind if I created another gathering, but one just for the evil clans. I know you're gathering is really good so I didn't want to do something like that without getting your permission first, but I just thought I'd ask. It seemed like a good idea, because the evil clans don't really follow starclan, do they. But if you don't want me to then I'm also fine with that.

hi, well my theorie is that hollyleaf is still alive and will use ivypaw's jealousy to turn her evil. also, even though i really don't want Leafpool to die its extremely probable
Dawnshadow/Dawnstar
hey!
i think that, like Tigerstar, Hollyleaf will come to Ivypaw in her dreams. Also that Starclan and Darkforest cats will come to the clans and fight each other.
Just saying.....
I think Dovepaw is just like Squirrelflight durring the Midnight Quest.Do you think Hollyleaf is going to get killed by Breezepelt by coming out of the tunnels through Windclan?
I just wanted to say...
I HOPE HOLLYLEAF IS ALIVE!!!!
Hey! I don't know if Hollyleaf died because when they talk about her in The Fourth Apprentice, they say she's "lost" so there could be hope!Graystripe came back, so it is possible.
Comment on Ivypaw theory:
I think it is Ivypaw, since her sister is "special" and all, like with saving the clans and being chosen to go, she probably wants to be special to. Perfect reason to want to be trained as the "Greatest warrior in the Clan".(Plus she doesn't know who Tigerclaw is and that he's a liar)

silverstar i so agree with you poppyfrost's kits might be speacil in some way. so my own theory is that it might be that dovepaw does fall for tigerheart and then jayfeater will find out and try to stop them which would proboly fail of course.
lilytail
i just thought of a question! i wonder if you could answer this sorrelpaw were does ashfur and hollyleaf go because me and my bros alll agree they both deserve to go were all the evil cats go.
i'll be right back i have to check a website for more answers i can give.
DARKFOREST!! I may hate ashfur but Hollyleaf!?!?! But you do have a point......
lilytail said:
da i have a point rainmask hollyleaf got what was coming to her so face it the dark forest is hollyleafs new home.
Well. . . Hmm what if Hollyleaf leads the Dark Forest? Hmm? Ouch. . . that would not be good. But its very possible. Well . . . Who knows?
