Silence of the lamb

by Owlsight22

There hasn't been a white kit with blue eyes in so long... the prophecy has almost been forgotten. Just a whisper in the oldest elders mind. Starclan hasn't forgotten. After all, it wasn't spoken by one of them. That's the part that bothers them the most. A dark forest cat spoke of a white cat with blue eyes who will either save the clans or destroy them.

A ginger and white tom ran through the twisted trees, leaping over fallen logs, dodging the claws of other cats. A dark tabby leaped for him and he ducked. He broke through a barrier of thorns and slowed to a walk, panting. A golden tom jumped out of a nearby tree and stalked over. "Sparrowstrike, what did you learn?" He glanced at the border where a few cats paced.

"A prophecy... White kit... Blue eyes... Save the clans... Or destroy them..." The tom spoke between gasps. "What? Who received this... this prophecy?" "A she-cat... white... black... Scar across her face..." "Splitmask" The tom growled. "Do we know who the prophecy is about?" "No, Waspstrike there are no white kits in the clan. At least with that description." A brown she-cat had padded over. "Sparrowstrike, go rest and get some water. I'll bring you a mouse." Sparrowstrike nodded. "Thanks, Acorndawn" Sparrowstrike padded away.

"Why did you send him? He could have been killed!" Acorndawn hissed "He's one of the fastest cats here, I chose her for that reason." Waspstrike sat looking at the border with the Darkforest. Only a tom remained, the dark tabby sat at the border glaring at the Starclan cats. As if daring them the cross. "Why did we even need a spy over there?" Acorndawn questioned. Waspstrike sighed. "If we didn't have a spy we wouldn't have learned about the prophecy. Why they got the prophecy and we didn't I will never know."

"Because we're better!" The brown tabby yelled across the border. Acorndawn sighed. "Let's move farther away from the border. The other cats will want to know." Waspstrike nodded. As they padded away he couldn't help but look back at the brown tabby.

Many seasons later

"A tom and she-cat" Birchfall announced. Blazerunner stopped his pacing and hurried into the den. There they were, his mate and kits. The tom looked like Dawnpelt, his dark ginger stripes the same color as hers. The she-cat was white with light grey stripes, paws, and muzzle. "They're beautiful."Blazerunner purred "What should we name them?" "Why not Flamekit for the tom?" Dawnpelt purred. "New life comes from destruction," Blazerunner said remembering the forest fire last moon that destroyed half the forest. Dawnpelt nodded.

They both turned their attention to the she-cat. "At the last gathering, I heard from Swiftfeather that the twoleg's sheep have something called a lamb and that they have curly fur. Her stripes make her fur look curly. Lambkit?" Dawnpelt tilted her head the way she did when she was thinking. "I like it." Dawnpelt nuzzled her kits.
