Hi Everyone! Saffy here! This fanfic is taken from my other story, Seasons Never Fail. If you haven't, check out my Wizard101 story: Twins, born from Fire. Please R&R! :D
DauntlessFlame: Yahootie! First review (on other story)! Thanks for the constructive criticism. I'm fixing it. BTW, I didn't notice that Mousefur's name was Mousefur, just adding a top and a bottom and it comes out as an actual warrior. Oops. I changed it to Icefur. :D
Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors. Erin Hunter does. If I did own Warriors, Snowfur (Bluestar's sister) would never die.

Prologue: Moonpelt's Prophecy
Moonpelt touched her nose to the Moonpool, begging for release from StarClan. Earlier that day, Briarpaw had died in ThunderClan of an unknown fever. The she-cat wouldn't respond to the numerous herbs given to her. Moonpelt's grief was overwhelming, it always was, when the she-cat breathed her last breath. Moonpelt wished for the comfort StarClan could give to her. Tonight, there was no comfort for Moonpelt, though. The other medicine cats and their apprentices slowly fell asleep, dreaming StarClan dreams.
Moonpelt padded through FourTrees, the Gathering place in the old forest. This was a sacred place to the cats. Cinderheart, a long dead medicine cat, met her there. Moonpelt usually met with Cinderheart during dreams from StarClan. It was as if Raintail was (used to be) her ThunderClan mentor, and Cinderheart was her StarClan mentor. Moonpelt wanders around FourTrees, looking for Cinderheart. Or another cat, maybe Bluestar, who sometimes came. Even though Moonpelt usually walked this place in her dreams, cats from StarClan were usually there. Now Moonpelt felt alone. Lost. Helpless. Moonpelt looked up, searching for the moon, which had always given her comfort. The moon... where was it? It was gone, but Moonpelt could see clearly, as if a full moon graced the sky. Why was there no moon? Maybe it was very late at night, or very early. Maybe the moon was hidden by the FourTrees. Moonpelt knew that if she maneuvered her way around FourTrees she would eventually see the moon. Or not see it. Moonpelt decided she was going to believe it was there, letting unsureness give her false security. Even false security was better than none. Moonpelt shivered, the creepiness of being along in FourTrees was beginning to get to her. Wasn't this a StarClan dream? Wouldn't they appear by now? Moonpelt had only one answer to this. And it wasn't even an answer, just a way so that she might know the answer. Moonpelt raced toward the nearest tree, her feet pounding on the leaves. The sound filled in the silence, letting Moonpelt's ears stop searching in vain for a sound. Moonpelt clawed her way up the tree, trying as hard as she could not to fall. Reaching the top of the tree, she stared down at the FourTrees clearing. Suddenly, the trees began to change colors, rapidly, but not to rapidly that you couldn't get the meaning. They would be light green, darker green, red or orange or brown, then fall of, regaining the leaves once more in a matter of seconds. It was a sign from StarClan. It signified the seasons, but what for? What did the seasons have to do with anything? Moonpelt began to feel dizzy, the sight of the rapid, ever changing color fest around her was too much for her to bare. Moonpelt griped on to her tree with her claws, trying desperately to stay on. The clearing swaying before her. Moonpelt looked down, only to see the red and orange leaves underneath her fall, casting her into the darkness. But the dream wasn't over yet.
Moonpelt was back at the Moonpool, but StarClan cats were there, not the other medicine cats. Cinderheart was no where to be found, but Bluestar was there. Bluestar seemed not to see her, but stare right through her. Moonpelt mewed anxiously, "Bluestar, Bluestar!", but got no answer. Moonpelt flicked her tail in front of Bluestar's face, but the former leader just stared off into the distance, giving no reaction. Bluestar began to murmur, but of course Moonpelt couldn't hear the first bit because she was making so much noise. She stood stock still and picked an ear, trying to hear the bluish she-cat. Bluestar murmured, "...it mean? I can't figure it out! It makes no sense." Moonpelt yearned to ask what 'it' was. Then, Bluestar finally seemed to notice her, and mewed, "Darkness will fall and the clans will almost perish. Yet one light, one hope remains. Seasons can save the clans, saving them from eternal darkness. They are our only hope." Was that it? Bluestar had returned to staring into the distance, but then the world swam in front of Moonpelt. Blackness crowded in on her vision, and she called to Bluestar but received no response. The swarming darkness clouded her final view of Bluestar, then she could see no more. She awoke, lying on the ground next to the Moonpool. The dream was over.
Moonpelt stretched for what seemed like hours. The other medicine cats were done, and exchanged small talk as Moonpelt was stretching, then bid her goodbye as they left. Moonpelt trudged back to ThunderClan, ready to sit in her nest for a couple of hours, contemplating what she had heard.
