PROLOGUE
It wasn't the rain nor the wind that woke Coralheart. It was her dream. The strawberry-brown coloured she-cat rose from her nest and padded outside her den.
The WaterClan camp was bathed in moonlight. The medicine cat could see that it was almost a full moon and that the Gathering would be any day now. But it wasn't the moon that Coralheart was interested in.
She quietly and quickly padded out of the camp and trotted through the trees, following the path down to the river that was well-worn with seasons of cat paw prints. The comforting sound of water rippling down the small rapids reached Coralheart's ears as she emerged from the trees and slipped down the riverbank.
There, was the message Coralheart had been waiting for.
She could see her reflection in the dark water, distorted by ripples and currents. But the message was still as clear as the newleaf air.
StarClan wanted her to hear something...
"River, Thunder, Shadow and Wind must unite to fight what endangers them the most. If not, then blood will be spilled and the river will run red."
Hello to all you wonderful, lovely, amazing people reading my first book on ! This is only the prologue, but trust me - it will get LOTS better!
A special shoutout to for helping me and guiding me along the way with this first book, and I hope that it will go far.
