Prologue: StarClan's Decision
The gray tom looked worried. "Lionstar, are you sure we should do this?"
Lionstar, a golden tom, looked annoyed. "Yes, Stormfoot. We have to reveal what we know, sooner or later. It could be too late by then."
Now an autumn she-cat spoke up. "Yes, Stormfoot, my son Oakstar must save the Clans."
Stormfoot sighed. "Fine, Leaffur. I know he wasn't my son, but he was yours, and you're my mate. I follow you."
Leaffur smiled. "I knew you would see it."
Just then, a bluish she-cat emerged from the shadows. "Lionstar, Leaffur, you must give him the prophecy yourselves."
Lionstar turned. "Why, Bluestar? Why not you?"
"Oakstar trusts you more. You were his mentor, and Leaffur is his mother. Can't get better cats."
Lionstar grumbled. "Fine. We shall wait, though. Wait until the prophecy comes true."
Stormfoot darkened. "Yes, we will wait. Wait, until Oakstar's kits are born."
"We can't wait that long! We'll have to do it sooner!" cried Leaffur.
Stormfoot smiled. "That is where, my mate, you're wrong. Berryfrost will have work to do, right at moonhigh."
Bluestar gasped. "You can't interfere! This is kitting, for Treestar's sake!"
"You can't stop me." Stormfoot snapped. "We need to save the Clans, and if you're willing to wait till Oakstar dies, that's fine with me."
"He's right, Bluestar." Lionstar agreed. "We have no choice. We must interfere."
Bluestar looked angry, but didn't react. "Do what you will. I will not be involved." Bluestar then turned and stalked back to the camp.
Lionstar turned back to Stormfoot. "You sure this will work?"
"Positive, Lionstar. TreeClan will be saved!"
Stormfoot: Hey, Lionstar, Icestar forgot the disclaimer.
Lionstar: I guess we'll have to do it for him.
Stormfoot: Fine.
Lionstar and Stormfoot: Warriors does not belong to Icestar!
Stormfoot: We belong to him, but Warriors doesn't.
Lionstar: He created us, not the Erins, so he owns us.
Stormfoot: Now, we're dead, so our disclaimer might not mean anything.
Lionstar: A disclaimer is a disclaimer, so it doesn't matter.
Stormfoot: That's all we need to do. No more disclaimers for us. See you in StarClan!
