Starlight filled a pool, churning and glittering. A dark brown tabby tom gazed down at the silver water, his eyes shimmering in the reflection. A silent breeze sent ripples through the pond, disturbing the rocking waves. The scents of cats were carried by the whispering wind that blew the tom's fur back.
"Come out, Snowybird. I know you're there, don't underestimate my nose." the tom said. A white she-cat padded softly out of the shadows.
"I thought you'd never guess," she chuckled. Silently, Snowybird walked over to the pool to sit beside the tabby. She quietly asked, "Are you looking for omens, Volestar?"
Volestar sighed and turned towards her, "Yes, Snowybird," he answered, "I am looking for a sign. Something to give us hope."
"Well, at least let me take a look. I was your former medicine cat, in case you forgot." Snowybird told Volestar. Without waiting for an answer, she leaned over the water and pricked her ears. Volestar waited patiently behind her, flicking his tail curiously. Little did Snowybird know, a mist was forming above the pond, and that the waves were turning scarlet and thick, lapping at the stones and grass at the shoreline.
Finally Snowybird looked up and saw it with a gasp. It was as if the waves of what it seemed like blood was fighting the mist, churning and swirling. Snowybird murmured a prophecy that would doom the Clans to suffer. "The one of mist will shine above all and rid us from the torrent of blood."
An expectant yet horrified Volestar looked at her, a look of fear.
"We are doomed to suffer the wrath of blood until mist will rise." Snowybird told him. She yowled into the shadows, "You all have seen what is to become of our Clans!" As she said this, cats crept out of the shadows. Some looked willing and ready to face the challenges ahead, others looked scared and weak, glancing from side to side as if enemies were to leap out of the trees at any time. They were right to be afraid. An enemy was rising at this very moment.
"Only mist can save us!" Snowybird yowled on, "We must prepare like our kin in the living Clans should! For this will affect us too!"
Volestar stepped up and called out, "A danger awaits us all. Something so terrible that not even we can prevent. An enemy lurks in the darkness, waiting for the right time to strike."
Is Volestar right? A danger so strong that not even StarClan can prevent? And the prophecy, will mist really save us from blood? I guess only time can tell, and we must wait for blood to wreak its havoc on us before mist will come...
