Author's Note: For once, the prologue isn't in first person.
:Prologue:
Yellow eyes stared worriedly out of the den. Rain almost blurred her vision, but not completely. Across the camp, a cat's head poked through the black rose bushes. A familiar, ginger head.
After looking around, the tom walked towards her.
"Smogstar," he whined, pushing his nose into her fur, "how come you caven't met me? I miss you."
But the she-cat pulled away.
Hurt, the ginger cat also drew back. "What's wrong? Don't you love me?"
"Of course I do!" blurted Smogstar.
Their eyes connected, and the tom knew she wasn't lying. "Then what is it?"
Smogstar was quiet for a moment. "Sunstar…" she mumbled, tears sparking on her eyelashes.
"Yes?"
"Sunstar, I…" she stammered, "I'm pregnant!"
Slightly surprised, Sunstar started towards his dejected mate, but she retreated further into her den.
"What are our Clans going to think?" she cried hysterically.
The ginger leader winced as he thought about his own Clan, SandClan, and the black she-cat's. CityClan was going to kill him.
"We'll figure something out," he mewed reassuringly.
Author's note: Once again, the prologue is short. But whatcha gunna do? –shrugs helplessly-
