Prologue
Crunch. Crunch. Crunch. The fallen leaves of leaf-fall snapped and crinkled under Ashlily's paws as a young tom, a brand new apprentice, followed behind them. The grey dappled tom, Pigeonpaw, was enchanted by his mentor, stumbling along behind the cat. Beside the pair walked another feline - a calico she-cat with a single amber eye. Butterflyheart of ThunderClan. Slightly ahead, a dusky grey she-cat and a brown tom walked side-by-side - Misttalon and Featherpaw of WindClan.
The small group's path merged with that of two other cats, both toms. One was a tuxedo, the other was a glowing golden-brown. Pigeonpaw recognised the cats as Bravefeather and Appleface of ShadowClan.
"You took your time, Bravefeather," Misttalon commented.
"Silverhawk was ill," The tom replied. "We were forced to stay at camp for longer than usual."
"We must not waste moonlight," Ashlily cut in. "It is almost moonhigh."
All cats were silent after that, travelling up. It wasn't Pigeonpaw's first medicine cat meeting, as he was ten moons old. He had already been to three meetings, and this was his fourth. The group swiftly arrived at the Moonpool, and without saying a word, each cat took a drink from the crystal-clear waters, and curled up to dream with StarClan.
Pigeonpaw immediately found himselves in the forests of StarClan. This was a surprise to the young tom, as he had witnessed dreams and such at the Moonpool before, but had not yet been talked to by StarClan directly. It did seem a little... dark here, though...
The rustle of leaves behind him alerted Pigeonpaw to another cat's presence, and he swivelled around, curious.
The cat was a sleek, silver-pelted she-cat with a greying muzzle and twinkling green eyes. There was a long scar running down her side. Pigeonpaw tilted his head to one side, curious.
"Greetings, Pigeonpaw," The she-cat purred lyrically. "I am Silverstar. I was the leader of RiverClan before Mintstar, and I mentored Mintstar myself."
"Why did you appear to me?" Pigeonpaw asked, straightening up. "I'm no leader, and I'm not even a full medicine cat yet!"
"Shush, young one," Silverstar mewed. "I must deliver a prophecy."
"Why aren't you giving it to Ashlily?" Pigeonpaw asked again, slightly nervous. "They could carry it better than I ever would. Or-or Mintstar! He's the leader, after all."
"I am giving it to you, as it is your destiny to complete it," Silverstar replied softly. "Remember, Pigeonpaw. The stormy fire will set the stars alight."
"The stormy fire will set the stars alight..." Pigeonpaw murmured to himself.
"The stormy fire will set the stars alight."
As soon as Silverstar had uttered those words, Pigeonpaw woke up. He was no longer in those dark forests - he was now back with his mentor, and the fellow medicine cats, left only with the prophecy that Silverstar had delivered to him. The stormy fire will set the stars alight.
