Breezepelt ran through the tall grass. He has never felt so content. Heathertail giggled, her paws pulsing with nervous energy.

"You wanna see who can run faster?" Breezepelt dared.

Heathertail shrugged. "Sure." She sprinted off in the moonlight. f

Breezepelt raced to catch up and Heathertail let him pull ahead.

Struggling to catch up with him, Heathertail slowed to a stop, gasping. "I pulled you out here because... well, because I'm expecting."

Breezepelt stiffened, his amber eyes shining with pride. "You don't say?"

Heathertail's blue eyes betrayed an inconsolable excitement. "No joke."

Breezepelt grinned. "They'll be the strongest."

"With you as their father, I'm sure they'll will." Heathertail sighs and lays down.

Kestrelflight bounded up to the Moonpool, Puddleshine and Alderheart beside him.

"This greenleaf is looking up." Puddleshine remarked.

Alderheart nodded.

A shining pool of water that reflected moonlight greeted the medicine cats. Kestrelflight silently lapped up the starry water and allowed sleep to overcome him.

"Barkface?" Kestrelflight called into the thick mist. An incoherent whisper answered him. He strained his ears to pick up words.

Beware... a restless... never wavers... for one...

"I don't understand." Kestrelflight calls desperately.

The whispering becomes a steady prolonged chant.

Beware a restless wind in which the darkness in her heart never wavers. Beware for one of his kits will grow up bitter and misunderstood.

Please review! It's pretty unlikely, Heathertail and Breezepelt liking each other, am I right?

I apologize deeply for the short prologue.
