Prologue
A small black tom with stars in his fur stood at the edge of a clearing alert for any sign of movement in the bushes. A twig snapped and the bushes quivered on one side of the clearing. The tom whirled as a creamy brown she-cat padded into the clearing followed by a brown tabby tom.
"Dawnstar, Snaketail, I hoped to find you here," the black tom said. Dawnstar dipped her head in greeting.
"What is it Molepelt?" Dawnstar asked. "It must be important if you come all this way looking for us,"
Molepelt nodded. "It is important. Trouble is coming, Dawnstar, I just know it."
Dawnstar gave him a questioning look. "What makes you say that? You do not know that trouble is coming, you just think that it is."
"Yeah!" Snaketail agreed looking up at the bright sun. "It's been really peaceful around here. There hasn't been any sign of trouble." Molepelt glared at Dawnstar and Snaketail. "You shouldn't say that I'm wrong. I was your medicine cat!" he hissed through gritted teeth.
Dawnstar glared back. "And I was your leader!" she retorted. Dawnstar turned away from Molepelt and started padding away to the edge of the clearing. When she was halfway there she looked over her shoulder at Snaketail. "Come on Snaketail! Lets go hunting," she called.
"Ok! He replied.
"Wait! Look at the sky!" Molepelt called just as Snaketail was about to join Dawnstar.
He pointed his tail in the direction of the sky where dark grey clouds were covering the sun. The birds fell strangely silent. Harsh winds rattled the tree branches. Lightning flashed through the sky. Thunder rumbled above and then rain started pouring down. "It's a sign!" Molepelt yowled triumphantly. "I was right. Trouble is on its way!"
