Hi my fans! I'm sorry it's taking so long but I've got school homework (lots) I've got to do and I only get a short amount of time to write…well enough of my talk, time to get READING (YAAAAAY) well here it goes…

Prologue…

Wind swept angrily across muddy moorland, carrying with it stinging flurries of rain. The tough grass had turned to mud and the water of a nearby stream had burst its banks, spreading out into a large flowing pool. Its surface was bubbling madly as small drops of rain splashed into it.

Crouching beside the pool was a small golden tabby she-cat; her sharp green eyes were looking intently into it. Water was lapping at her white paws and her fur was plastered to her body.

"Goldenstream?" said an anxious voice. Looking behind her, Goldenstream spotted a small, delicate silver tabby she-cat lightly step out from behind a thorn bush. Following her was a handsome ginger tom with piercing green eyes, a pale ginger she-cat, a blue-grey she-cat, a dark grey she-cat with a broad, flattened face and a small beautiful tortoiseshell she-cat. "What do you see?"

Goldenstream dipped her head respectfully at the six cats padding toward her. "Dark days are headed for the four Clans, Silverstream." Goldenstream slowly stared ahead, her eyes clouded and it was as if she was looking into the future and spoke of a prophecy. "When the strongest flames strike true, the dawn the rise again and will bring the eternal night in its grasp"

The pale ginger she-cat looked over at her companions, "Yellowfang, Spottedleaf do you know what this prophecy might mean?" Both she-cats hurriedly pushed they way through to the pool, and stared into it.

Finally Spottedleaf looked up from the pool and turned back at looked at the other cats. "No, I'm sorry Sandstorm, but all I can say is the clans will go through a dark time, darker than what they have ever gone through before."

Yellowfang stood beside her, "The clans will be pushed to the ultimate test, boundaries will be fought for,

prey will be stolen and the warrior code will be challenged."

"Well we must hope the Clans will fight through this," the blue-gray she-cat spoke-up.

"Yes, Bluestar you're right," the handsome ginger tom meowed with eyes blazing like green fire. "But I believe the clans will fight through this."

"Firestar! Bluestar! Come we must go now." Silverstream meowed irritably, flicking drops of water from her ears. She padded away into the undergrowth, her silver pelt fading into the storm, with Sandstorm, Spottedleaf and Yellowfang following behind her.

Goldenstream dipped her head towards Bluestar and Firestar, "thankyou for coming to hear this terrible news, I hope you can find a way to pass it to the clans."

Firestar flicked his tail in acknowledgment and vanished along with the other cats, while Bluestar lingered at the edge of the clearing her blue eyes glinted as the moon forced its way through the grey storm clouds. Once all the cats had gone, Goldenstream quickly retreated to a cave to sleep for the night. Gathering some dry branches she made a nest and curled up, her tail tip covering her nose as she fell asleep.

You sorry guys it's a bit short but the other chapters will be longer…
