PROLOGUE

Misty was pacing her royal chamber. It was her coronation day and on her coronation day she would get her royal gem and pick out her eagle from the hatchery. Cats in the forest kingdom form bonds with eagles when the eagle is young so they will fight with them in battles and such. And royalty have coronations when they take the throne after their parents die or retire. Her parents died in battle. Their eagles died in the previous battle so they didn't have them to help.

Later in the tree castle she was in her blue petal dress on the royal platform in the throne room. A soft rose petal pillow with five gems on it sat in front of her. The selection consists of a emerald, sapphire, ruby, pearl and, a diamond. Royalty usually gets rubies and pearls. Sometimes they get a emerald or a sapphire but no one gets a gems give them powers that they will help them with a problem in the future. Pearls give the power to freeze things at will, rubies give you the power to set things on fire, emeralds give you the power to see the future, a sapphire gives you the power to control water, but no one knows what a diamond dose. Misty was excited she dreamed of getting the diamond like all the new kings and queens. She put her right paw out and put it on the pillow. The royal sorcerer started chanting. She didn't know what he was saying but she heard from stone her friend and eagle caretaker that the chant was in twolegish. As he was chanting the emerald started to glow and then it started to rise from the pillow. At that moment she knew that was her gem.

Years later Shadow pov

The diamond was floating. Shadow was taking the the throne from her parents Queen Misty and King Stone. She was getting her gem and the diamond was floating. What powers would it give her what will be the problem that needs her to have the powers that the diamond can give her. She was happy and scared but a good thing was that her parents weren't dead they retired but she was still getting the diamond. Now it was floating towards her and hit her chest and it stayed there it was truly now her gem. Later she was in her training clothes purple leaves that let her move more than a dress does. She was going to pick out her eagle they were gold eagles so they would blend in better with the trees and other areas in their territory. Her mother lead her to the tallest tower on the top was the hatchery. The old queens eagle chickadee recently had a clutch so she would probably pick her eagle from that clutch. When she was done going up the spiral stairs she was surprised to see Willow the sorcerer's apprentice

.

"What are you doing up here?" she asked confused. Willow turned around with things that look like something she sees some twoleg ware.

"Oh hi Shadow i'm getting a eagle. Whisper is getting old and she can barely lift the caldron."

"Ok. What are you wearing?"Shadow asked.

"oh. I call thees eye helpers."She said proudly

"They help you see!"

"Cool." Shadow finally said. She was more interested in picking out her eagle. So she bounded after her mom and skidded to a halt in front of a gigantic golden eagle.

"Chickadee congrats on the chicks!" Shadow said excitedly, And to no one's surprise the eagle answered back in fluent catish

"Thanks! Blaze is really happy too!" (Blaze is the chicks father)

"Well i would think he is ! These chicks are beautiful !"

Chickadee feathers fluffed up in a flattered way "You flatter me ! Let me introduce you to them. This is Thorn, Razor, Spark, and Crash."

Now her mother spoke "Well Dee you know the drill."

Chickadee screeched and chattered something in her language and the chicks flew up in the air in a straight line with Razor in the lead. The did a couple loops, a spiral down then they shot back up all the while Razor in the front. They landed in front of shadow.

Chickadee looked like she was about to explode with pride "Well who do you think would fit you best !"

"I choose …. Razor !"
