PROLOGUE
The black tom padded through the forest, his yellow eyes burning with anger, his tail whipping from side to side, his huge claws unsheathed. The tom recited the prophecy: "After moons of ambition, blood will poor from cat to cat and shadows will spread." The tom ran through the forest checking if the moon was still shining. "Perfect." The tom growled. The tom came to the border of Oceanclan and saw his prey with the toms sister. "Eagletalon!" The other tom whipped around, his blue eyes peircing through his soul as he hissed the toms name. "Shadowfang." Eagletalon growled. "Why are you here again?" The Shadowfang asked. "I'm here to keep you from visiting my sister, your dangerous and I KNOW you will hurt her." Eagletalon hissed. "Eagletalon, please don't hurt him." The white she-cat mewed her eyes not leaving her brothers. "It's for your own good Icyclaw." Eagletalon meowed his yellow eyes burning with anger. "If you want a fight." Shadowfang growled as he unsheathed his claws. "Then I'll get a fight." They launched themselves at eachother.
CHAPTER ONE
Eaglekit woke up with energy running through his veins. He scramled out of the safety of his mothers tail. "Mistykit!" There was no answer. "Mistykit!" He jabbed her in the side with his warrior sized claws unsheathed. "Ouchy! Mommy! Theres a intruder-" Swiftbreeze woke up with a start and her gaze softened as she noticed it was just Eaglekit playing around. "Claws sheathed, Eaglekit. Or your going to hurt somebody with those huge claws." Swiftbreeze lay back down. "And by the way kits, it's not even sunrise yet. Apprentice ceromony is in the morning, not night." She mewed with amusement in her yellow gaze. "We don't care, mommy." Eaglekit hissed playfully as he bowled over his sister. "Did I just hear something?" Thistlekit mewed as he woke up with his amber eyes flickering open. "Shut your furry mouth, Thistlekit. I want some sleep, it's the middle of the night." Rustykit meowed as he put his ears to his head. "No. I just heard a hiss.. and that means.." Thistlekit gasped. "Enemy!" Thistlekit started to bat at Rustykit. "Stop! I'm to tired!" Thistlekit sighed. "Your mentor is not going to like you." He growled. "No my mentor is going to love me!" Rustykit hissed, his fur bristling. Lionpelt awoke, her bushy tail twitching. "Kit's please be quiet." Lionpelt mewed as gentle as she could. "Stop fighting." Swiftbreeze meowed, gesturing her tail for Mistykit and Eaglekit to go back to sleep. They crawled next to her and lay down, slowly falling asleep. "You furballs should shut up because me and Honeykit want some sleep." Bluekit snapped her almost blue fur bristling. Honeykit woke up. "Bluekit, can you be more quiet." Bluekit turned around. "What do you mean I was just telling our blabber mouth brothers that we need some sleep!" Honeykit's almost purple eyes grew wide. "You shouldn't yell at me like that, Bluekit, I'm older then you!" "Only by a minute!" "How dare you call us blabber mouths!" Rustykit yowled. "Yeah, sisters suck!" Thistlekit chirped in. The littermates started arguing. "Can all of you guys SHUT UP!" Blackkit meowed, her blue eyes gleaming. The littermates grew silent. Moonkit, Lightkit, and Palekit woke up. There one moon old eyes not opened. They mewed tiredly. "Come, kits." Lily, a former kittypet that is only staying till her kits turn apprenticed mewed. She swept them up with her tail and let them suckle her milk. Grassblade was sleeping through all the noise, not knowing her four moon old kits woke up. "Rosekit, do you think the gatherings going good?" Shadowkit asked, his dark blue eyes staring at the cloud covered moon. "Who knows." Rosekit meowed. Blackkit's mother, Meadowsky has been awake, listening to all the noise. "Rosekit, Shadowkit. You should go to sleep, everyone else is finally quiet, and they are seeking sleep. Maybe you should too." Her amber eyes were full of kindness. "Yes, Meadowsky." Rosekit meowed while Shadowkit glared at her. "Whatever." He muttered.
