PROLOUGE

"Hollyleaf!"

She heard her brother's voice almost at the same moment she heard the rumble of the earth. The half-light shining through the entrance disappeared as the tunnel started to collapse.

Hollyleaf spun around, but could barely see anything anymore. Terror and hopelessness made her fur bristle, and her claws automaticly unshealthed. There was no way out, the falling earth will reach her any moment, it was so dark she could only barely see her own paws...

Do you want me to die, StarClan? she snarled silently, backing away to the farthest corner of the wall. Maybe StarClan wanted to get rid of her, the cat with a medicine cat mother and WindClan father.

Everything about her destroyed the warrior code her ancesters created...

Now rage tempered her fear, and all at once she could think clearly. She had been here before, and back then she had thought she wouldn't have been able to escape either. But Jayfeather knew a way, somehow...

Hollyleaf shot forward as the tumbling earth started to hit her. She stumbled, and fell right where she was trying to get to. The river.

Even underwater, she was hit by falling boulders, forcing her deeper and deeper into the river. There was no way to tell where she was going, and she could only rise up now and then before to take a gasping breath before she was forced down again.

How far is this river? She hoped it would go to the lake soon, she couldn't keep this up much longer. Her long fur weighed her down, and her head was starting to spin with lack of air. I can't die, not yet!

The prophecy! I'm still part of the prophecy.

And then, suddenly, the swirling river became calm, the crashing earth had stopped, everything was quiet and still. Hollyleaf's head burst through the surface, and she glanced around. She was in the lake.

Gritting her teeth, she set out wearily toward one of the shores, the closest. Before long she felt her paws reach the pebbles and sand of the shore. Too tired to care about anything, she simply collapsed right there, with the water still lapping at her back paws. But her heart was beating to hard, her breath was too fast, to fall asleep.

She glanced around. She was in ThunderClan territory. For a moment she felt relief that she could go back to the hollow and go back to her familer nest and just sleep. Then she was full of disgust, disgust of herself for thinking that and disgust at her own Clan. They were liers, all of them, and her brothers knew that she killed Ashfur. By now the Clan would know it. She could never go back.

Hollyleaf shut her eyes tight and buried her head under her paws. She had survived, but now she had nowhere to go. Her whole life as a Clan cat was based on the warrior code, but now she wasn't even a Clan cat, and her own existence completly destroyed the warrior code. This was more hopeless the finding out the walls were crumbling around her, and the entrance to the tunnel had collapsed, blocking almost every escape.

But the prophecy! She had to go somewhere. The prophecy must be fulfilled, and drowning in self-pity wasn't going to do anything to help fulfill it.

The warrior code is destroyed, but the prophecy isn't. Hollyleaf rose to her paws. The sun was rising, warming and drying her fur. She realized that this was so close to the place she killed Ashfur. She stared out across from teh spot to the Windclan border, where her father was, then turned her back on everything. She didn't know where she was going, she just walked on the shore, letting the waves gently lap at her paws. It would hide her scent, hide any tracks she would create on the shore. Before she realized it, she was nearing the ShadowClan border.

The place where the borders met was teh place she padded up. The stream that led down to the lake whispered quietly down, in the opposite direction she was going. A vague plan was forming in her mind, and she barely thought about it when she padded toward the old two-leg nest.

She padded straight up to the entrance. She took a deep breath before she called out quietly, "Sol?"

A dark, looming shadow was suddenly standing in front of her. She took a step back and looked up. Sol's face was expressionless, calm, like always. She felt a flutter of mingled fear and dislike, but she ignored it. She needed Sol if she wanted to do what was right.

I have to do something. Sol knows about the prophecy, he's the only one I can learn from. If I can learn about the prophecy, make it come true, then I can undo everything that went wrong. I can take revenge for what has happened, I can restore the warrior code.

She took another deep breath. "Sol, I killed Ashfur, and I can't go back now, but I need to train, to learn more about the prophecy and teh Clans. I need to make the Clans great again, and I can, because I'm one of the Three in teh prophecy."

"If you are part of the prophecy." Sol's voice was cool, clear, and deep, and seemed to hold hidden secrets.

Hollyleaf bristled. "What are you talking about? Of course I'm part of the prophecy! We're kin of Firestar's kin! Leafpool is our mother! Me and Jayfeather and Lionblaze..." her voice trailed off as she realized that her brothers must think she was dead. Longing to see them rose above almost everything else. I'll meet them again soon. Once I find out what my power is and once I have a real plan. Then we can do all this together.

Sol looked at her for a moment, and then nodded slowly. "Very well, then, Hollyleaf. I will teach you. The Clans will change because of this prophecy, and you and I will make sure it is for the better."
