Prologue


A starry she-cat padded up to a ginger tom, she touched noses with him before whispering the prophecy words, "Rain will bring sunshine to their eyes". She wished she could hold him longer, but she knew that her work had finished. She briefly disappeared and made her way to StarClan.

There she was greeted by a white and grey tom, who nodded at her as he began to speak, "Good job, Gingershine, I knew you would be able to face him" Cloudstar, the first leader, glanced at the ginger starry she-cat before sighing. "Do not worry, your son will know what to do. He wouldn't be a medicine cat."

Gingershine looked at her deceased leader before snapping at him, "You don't understand! It's your son I am worried about! He will destroy CloudClan as we know it!"

"That is why I am sending the chosen one to rebel, I know she can do it. She'll start a new clan, a better one. With us to guide them" Cloudstar calmly responded. But Gingershine wouldn't listen, she instead scoffed at Cloudstar's words, clearly forgetting that he was her leader.

A silence spread through the two clanmates, and a strange atmosphere replaced all the calmness. Gingershine narrowed her eyes at Cloudstar, before padding away to join their other deceased clanmates.

"That she-cat shall never learn." He sighed, and he turned around and saw a rosy-white tom standing a few rabbit-lengths away from Cloudstar.

"Hello there, Tumbleweed, how may I help you?" Cloudstar calmly asked Tumbleweed.

"Did you, send the kit on her way?" Tumbleweed asked, his eyes piercing at Cloudstar, "as I remember we cannot do the plan without the kittypet's help. She is the missing puzzle piece right now, Cloudstar."

"I have sent her a dream, thought right now, I feel as I should have sent one of our clanmates." Cloudstar mumbles.

"We'll light up her path." Tumbleweed nodded.
