1. Prologue

Prologue:

Silver watched from behind the green pelt draped across the entrance to the den as a cat stalked into the clearing, flanked by two other glossy pelted cats. A pigeon lay at their feet. Silver's tiny tummy growled pitifully at the sight. She felt Wing, her mother, come up to stand beside her, crouching down beside the kit. "Tigerstar." Her mother's voice spoke strongly "Who?" Came Silver's quiet reply. Silver was a pretty silver she-cat with a white splash on her chest, white muzzle fading into silver, same with her ears, paws and tail. Her belly was also white. Her back was a darker shade of silver, getting lighter. Even at her young age Bloodclan members knew that she had the strong spirit of a leader, but her older sister could wrap anyone round her claw, and as Shadow was the older sibling, she would be the next Bloodclan leader. Shadow had the same markings as Silver, but black and grey, with startling green eyes, which out matched Silver's Crystal blue eyes, the pure reflection of a clear blue sky, flecked with silver which shone in the moonlight, and gold in the sun. Shadow was prettier and there was no doubt about it. Her black pelt amplified the pure emerald of her eyes, and everyone was more than happy to have her as their next leader. No one cared for Silver. Now this 'Tigerstar' marched through the clearing tossed the pigeon to Wing and, led by Bone, was sent to see Scourge. Whatever happened that day in the den, only Scourge knows.
