I’ve decided to do a major overhaul of this book, and instead set it a couple of generations later, yet have this intertwine as an excluding Novella or something like that. I want to try and improve my writing, and with this I felt like I didn’t need to tell this part of the story, so now the story will skip two generations ahead. There was already a plot line planned further after this book, so I’ll be using that plot line.

Prologue
Milky light bathed a certain patch on the ground, nearby fellow Clan’s territory. A long haired white she cat was sleeping soundly, a golden cat with a striped tail lay further across from her, moss tendrils blowing in her face as she snored silently. The white she cat, Tricklestream, slowly blinked and opened her eyes, gazing at the moon, which gave her back a sullen stare. A feeling had been sinking deep in her chest for the past quarter moon, making her slightly more alert than usual, incase of forth coming danger. She was the medicine cat of DustClan, relied on by everyone, but used to be a former warrior.
Carefully, the blue eyed cat walked by Seedpool, not making a sound, only as much as a gentle rustle of leaves as her feet brushed the floor. Worry and doubt seemed to incase her thoughts more, as she spotted a bright flicker upon the undergrowth. Was that a prophecy? She pondered, pacing her gentle walk to more of a jog as she approached the area that she had seen a flicker of light from. Smoke swirled around, making the medicine cat let out a cough, making Seedpool also turn and fidget in her nest until she was comfortable again. Placing a paw in the area of the light, Tricklestream cut back a yelp of pain, as the charred ember seemed to still be ablaze, smoke still puffing around the air. She did not notice that Seedpool had travelled briskly to her side until she looked to her left. Seedpool spoke only words that would explain what was going on. But they didn’t make sense. The blazing smoke will blow the tumbling bird towards the fading ember.” Another prophecy, the she-cat thought with dread. Another mass of problems.

CHAPTER 1 Chapter 1 “Emberkit! Pass the ball to me!” A yellow tabby with splotched stripes called to his sister, as she ran across the den, sending sprays of dirt everywhere. “Emberkit, Blazekit- calm down will you both!” Margarinefur, an off white milky tom with a golden tail, said to his foster kits as he watched them play. His mentor, Windywing, had given birth to the three kits two moons ago, but later passed away due to a greencough epedemic. Luckily only Windywing and Juniperkit were killed by it, no one else affected. “I bet them three are a handful!” He flicked his ear and heard a rumbly purr coming from Frondheart, an elder, but who was also nursing moon old Lilykit. Juniperkit, her daughter had been killed by the greencough, but the tough cat wouldn’t let that faze her. “Yes they are, I’ll admit, but they’re a bundle of joy.” Margarinefur purred in response, taking note of the grey kit nestled next to his tail, Smokekit, also Blazekit and Emberkit’s littermate. “Come on kits, let’s go outside for some fresh air.” He breathed heavily, watching fondly as the kits exited the warm shelter of shrubbery to the outside of the camp. DustClan was very, dusty. The ground was extremely dry, and plumes of dust always cane up once in a while. They were grateful to have the sheltering oak trees, their dark green leaves a contrast to the flaky pale ground. “Guys calm down.” Troutbreeze, a grey tabby she cat leant down to the littermates and hushed them gently. The kits obeyed and sat down, wondering what the commotion was at HighRock, as many cats had begun to crowd round. “I bet it’s not even that interesting.” Emberkit huffed, turning around to go back to Margarinefur. However, Blazekit, stood tall on his hind legs and peered over, spotting a flash of black tabby fur through the crowd of cats. He pondered for a second, knowing it wasn’t a cat from his Clan. The only options it could be were either, Thornwillow, the deputy Moletail, or black tabby Shadecreek. He thought the latter. “Welcome to the Clan, Tumbleheart.” He was surprised to hear Buzzardstar purr at this complete stranger. She could be a threat. Now his view of her was clearer, and she definitely was not a Clan cat. Emberkit slumped on the ground, gazing at the sky in thought. She loved gazing up at it, watching clouds pass by. The ginger kit suddenly felt a shock of movement through her. “Aah!” She gasped, Margarinefur running up to her. “What’s wrong Emberkit?” “I-I don’t know.” Tricklestream has now returned with Seedpool, both running over to Blazekit and Emberkit. “Help me! Please, my paw really hurts!” Blazekit screeched, waving his paw in the air. “Stay still.” Tricklestream said calmly, while Seedpool placed moss onto it. “What did that do?” Margarinefur asked, them noticing the black mark on Tricklestream’s paw. “It cooled it down, same with Emberkit’s paw.” Seedpool lifted up Blazekit’s paw, then Emberkit’s. “But don’t worry, they should be fine.” At that point, Smokekit had awoken, mewling with worry, a black patch also on her paw now. “Smokekit come here.” Margarinefur grabbed the moss off Seedpool and applied it to her paw. All three kits sighed in relief, and sat down, now examining their paws. “What’s all this?” Margarinefur asked, hissing to the medicine cats once their backs were turned from the kits. “Once a prophecy is interfered with, the cats get a scar which tells us they are a part of the prophecy.” Tricklestream explained. “So you’re part of the prophecy?” “No, it’s just spot marks from when I interfered.” Tricklestream said briskly, rubbing the mark off her paw. Then realisation hit him. “My kits are part of a prophecy?” “Yes but you can’t tell them.” Seedpool hissed back. Although, unbeknownst to them, three little bundles of mischief had already eavesdropped.
