Prologue
As the stars sparkled they reflected in a pool surrounded by sand and rocks. "The two have come." Emanated a voice.
"Yes, but they must be helped though." Meowed another. The moon shown through the roof.
"What do you mean Thunderstar?" meowed the first voice. It sounded like a she-cat.
"I agree with Thunderstar, though they have been apprentices for eight moons and they need to finish three more." Said a storm gray tom.
"I think they can handle it, don't you Thortail?'' said a sweet rose colored she-cat.
"I think we should each send two cats who are nine moons old to help them on there way." Said Thunderstar.
"I will send Sparrow and Rain." Meowed a black she-cat whose eyes shimmered in the moonlight.
"I will send Leaf and Snow." Meowed Thunderstar.
A small white she-cat stepped forward and said "From me they shall receive Light and Dark."
"Well, for pain, I shall send Feather, and for love and passion, I will send Stone." Meowed a kind silver she-cat.
"Let them fall further into time with luck." They meowed together
"May our spirits go with us." Whispered Thorntail.
