Warm scents of greenleaf was fresh in the air as a shiny black cat with green eyes padded through the thick growth of forest. Her tail was drooping and she had lowered her head in , her eyes glowed and they roamed her plump belly, proudly.
Soon, she reached a camp. Inside, cats were roaming the place and some sharing tongues. Just then, a thick furred blue-gray she-cat with piercing blue eyes, silver tinged around her muzzle and a silver-tipped tail padded over to her and mewed sharply, "Leopardfoot! Pinestar has been worried sick! How can you go on a patrol? You are expecting kits for StarClan's sake!" Leopardfoot let out a mrrow of laughter and mewed, "Bluefur, I am not a helpless kit! I can take care of myself!"
Just then, a reddish-brown tom with green eyes rushed over to Leopardfoot and nuzzled her. Then, he licked her ear fiercely. "Leopardfoot! How dare you go on a patrol!
I forbade you! Won't you ever listen?" Leopardfoot's eyes gleamed as she replied, "Maybe, because I am too stubborn?" Pinestar and Bluestar rolled their eyes but Leopardfoot could detect faint amusement in the cats.
Just then, Dawnlight, the current medicine cat of ThunderClan, padded over to the group of three and dipped she head to Pinestar. Then she turned to Leopardfoot and eyed her warily. "Ever since we were littermates, I have found you out to be stubborn, imaptient and curt. That is the reason why I am not lecturing you. Come to my den. I need to check you. The kits can be born anytime."
Leapordfoot nodded her head and followed her sister all the way to the medicine cat's den. There, Dawnlight checked her and mewed in a light tone, "The kits are going to be born anytime today or tomorrow. What you did was very very dangerous. Go to the Nursery now or I would lead a battle against you myself. But something tells me Pinestar will be on my side."
Leopardfoot chortled in amusement and brushing her tail against her sister's flank before heading to Nursery where all the expectant and nursing queens lived.
Inside the den, Leapordfoot was astonished to see Speckletail there. Her best friend nuzzled her and asked, "Leapordfoot, where were you? Pinestar was roaming the camp like a horse with rats on on his tail.
Leapordfoot flicked her tail dismissively and asked, "But Speckletail, why are you here?" Speckletail blushed before replying simply, "I am expecting kits. Smallear is the father."
Leapordfoot yelped in excitement and licked Speckletail's ear affectionately.
Meanwhile Dawnlight POV:
The silver cats were walking around him, each looking at him intently. Then they stopped and a tortoiseshell cat with bright green eyes padded forwards and after nuzzling Dawnlight, mewed, "Trouble lives on in the forest. Tiger comes, from pine and leapord. Fire comes from the world beyond. Tiger and fire, like raging storms, fight for the forest."
Dawnlight simply blinked, almost too astonished to speak. "Pine and Leopard? The kit of Pinestar and my sister? Save the whole forest?" She thought. By then, the cats had vanished, and she found herself alone in the clearing.
Dawnlight opened her eyes. She was in the medicine den. She sighed and then standing up, trembled. Leopardfoot and Pinestar's son would be Tigerkit and he would be, with the mysterious fire, would be the saviours of the forest.
She wanted to know more. But now all she could was wait.
Nobody knew what troubles would lay for ThunderClan; what horrors. That period of time was one of the darkest for the four clans and forest. However, the Tiger and Fire would save the forest; and combine the power of thousand stars to fulfill the prophecy.
