Pouncetail - ginger and white tom
The sun shone brightly over the grassy meadow below where a flame-coloured tom was stalking a piece of prey. He licked his lips and was about to pounce on the vole when the wind shifted, bringing with it the scent of another cat. Unfortunately, the vole smelled the tom and scurried away while the flame-coloured tom was occupied with finding the owner of the scent. He looked back and saw that the vole had disappeared into its hole.
"Mouse dung," he spat, looking behind him to see a dark grey she-cat with matted fur and yellow eyes padding towards him. "What is it, Yellowfang? I was about to catch that."
"You can catch prey anytime, Firestar. This cannot wait," Yellowfang hissed. "Follow me."
Firestar followed the grouchy she-cat, not sure where she was taking him. They passed by a faint brown tabby and Firestar sighed. Bramblestar had already lost two of his nine lives; Firestar prayed he wouldn't lose anymore. Soon enough, Yellowfang stopped at StarClan's sunning rocks. There were already a couple of cats basking in the sun.
"Ah, Yellowfang! Glad to see you finally came." A blue she-cat sat, looking down at Firestar and Yellowfang with a serious expression on her face. Firestar leapt onto the sunning rocks behind Yellowfang and stared at the others.
"What is going on, Bluestar?" the fiery-coated tom asked, sweeping his gaze over all the cats present. "Hello, Whitestorm and Hollyleaf," he added, noticing the fluffy white and jet black cats by Bluestar's side.
"Trouble is brewing in the Clans, Firestar," Yellowfang cautioned, sitting down slowly.
"Trouble is always brewing, Yellowfang," Hollyleaf sighed, "but, unfortunately, Yellowfang is right. ThunderClan is in more trouble than ever before."
"But why are you telling me this? I'm not exactly in charge of ThunderClan anymore," Firestar reminded them sharply.
"Maybe not, but you are still entitled to do something," Bluestar pointed out, getting up from her rock and stretching. "You can deliver your first prophecy as a StarClan cat to Jayfeather."
"Fox-dung! Hunting will always be difficult, even in my dreams, when I can see!" a grey tom snapped angrily.
"Hello, Jayfeather," said a pleasantly familiar voice from behind him. Jayfeather whipped his head around to see a flame-coloured pelt that he remembered so fondly.
"Firestar! It's wonderful to see you again! What's up?" Jayfeather cried, bounding over to his former leader.
"I wish I could say the same to you, Jayfeather, but I come bearing grave news." Firestar's expression conveyed his anxiety, and Jayfeather stopped in his tracks.
"There is a darkness that will fall on ThunderClan, one that could destroy all the Clans," Firestar tried to explain.
"What can I do?" Jayfeather blurted as he noticed Firestar's voice fading. The ThunderClan medicine cat was alarmed to see that the legendary flame-coloured tom had vanished. Now, all that Jayfeather could make out was his voice, which was growing fainter by the second.
"Fire has gone, leaving behind the embers of old and the sweet nectar of new..."
"Jayfeather, wake up!" A clear voice had cut into his dream. Jayfeather woke up and shook his head. It was the middle of the night.
"Briarlight...?" he asked groggily, sitting up straight in his nest.
"It's Cinderheart. She's having her kits!" Briarlight responded with excitement. The news jolted Jayfeather awake and he raced to the nursery, quickly reviewing the kit-birth procedures, like he did before every kit-birth. Thoughts of the new ThunderClan kits occupied Jayfeather's mind for the rest of the night, causing the medicine cat to temporarily forget all about Firestar's ominous prophecy.
