Prologue
Moonfur padded through the lush forest, scents of prey filled the air. A fast-flowing river rushed down the forest ground, trout leaping up from the water. Where am I? Moonfur sniffed the air, it didn't smell like Thunderclan's territory, nor could it be Windclan's. She felt her throat tighten and began lapping up the water to wash away the thirst that devoured her throat. She crouched down to see her reflection, followed by another staring back beside her's. Moonfur looked up to see a brown she cat with stars in her pelt. Moonfur stood up and tilted her head.
"Who are you? Where am I?" Moonfur asked, her head turning from side to side scanning the surrounding. The brown she cat laid her tail comfortingly on Moonfur's shoulder calming her down.
"My name's Windstar, I was Windclan's first leader."
"I'm in Starclan aren't I? Am I dead? Are my kits okay?" mewed Moonfur anxiously. Windstar touched noses with her, "They're fine my love. And I suppose that you are still quite alive."
"So I'm dreaming then?" meowed Moonfur instinctively. Windstar nodded as they walked along the river. Birds flew up in the trees and rabbits scurried down in the undergrowth. Leaves crunched underneath Moonfur's paws as they slowly came to a stop. Moonfur squinted her eyes and say a ginger tom standing at the edge of a gorge. He crouched down, a paw reached out forward. Moonfur's eyes widened, he was about to jump.
"We have to stop him!" shrieked Moonfur as she quickly turned her head to face Windstar, but she was gone. Blood pounded at Moonfur's ears, her fur stood on ends. I have to stop that cat! Moonfur ran towards the cat but he was already jumping down. No! Suddenly everything went dark. A familiar voice whispered around her.
"Windstar? Is that you?" Moonfur called out, her heart racing.
"The sun will go down before wind is at peace."
There voice faded away before Moonfur jolted awake panting. Spottedtail was just sleeping a tail length away, curled up with her kits. Moonfur stood up and looked up at the starry night sky, Windstar's voice still hanging in her head.
The sun will go down before wind is at peace.
