Chapter 2
Specklekit looked and Spottedpelt and was jealous. Spottedpelt was so beautiful; Specklekit thought she would never ever get noticed as long as she was near. She sighed.
Her brothers looked over at her.
"What's wrong?" Her brother, Tundrakit, asked.
"Well, it's just that we will never get noticed when Spottedpelt is near."
"And you care about this why?" Tundrakit asked.
"Well when we are warriors, don't you want to get praised when we do good things?"
Tundrakit said. "That will never happen; we will get noticed just like everyone else around her does. Who knows maybe you could be the center of attention one day."
Specklekit couldn't believe what she was hearing. "You are a dreamer. That crazy, I could never be the center of attention."
"Did you ever listen to the stories mom tells us." Tundrakit had an idea.
"Which ones?" she was confused and tried to figure what her brother was trying to get to.
"The ones about the first three. Remember those?"
"I don't think so." She answered
"The first three prophecies are what got us here now. The first was the one about Firestar. The prophecy was that only fire could save the clan, the clan being ThunderClan. He was a kittypet at first; everyone hated him for his kittypet blood, especially Tigerstar. Then Firestar fulfilled his prophecy and became one of the greatest leaders ever known. The second was the prophecy was 'Before all is peaceful, blood will spill blood and the lake will run red'. Well that was Brambleclaw. Again at first Brambleclaw was distrusted because he was Tigerstar's son. Then he went to the sundrown place and found Midnight the badger there. He found out about the twolegs destroying the forest. He told Firestar and they moved to the lake were we live now by making the Great Journey. He killed Hawkfrost, his own kin, and saved Firestar, he fulfilled his prophecy. Then the last was 'There will be three, kin of your kin, who will hold the power of stars in their paws'. That was Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf. They were in the background most of the time and were frustrated by it, just like you are. They saved the clan and fulfilled the prophecy." When he finished the story, he looked proud to remember the greatest story ever told.
"So what are you saying that one day we might save the clan with a prophecy about us?" She asked sarcastically.
"You never know." Tundrakit said, laughing.
"Hey have you seen Smokekit? I just noticed he had gone." Specklekit looked around, a worried look in her eyes.
Tundrakit looked around he was nowhere to be seen. "We should go to mother! We need to tell her!"
"No! You look for him and I'll go tell Clearstar! He will do something about it!" Just then Starstream, the medicine cat, raced up the Highledge to Clearstar's den. Specklekit followed the way the medicine cat went to go see the leader. Oh well, she though, I'll just wait in line to see him. See went up the Highledge as quietly as she could. To her surprise she almost made no sound.
When she got to the top she was about to kick a pebble to show her arrival when she heard the conversation between Clearstar and Starstream.
"What did you see in your dream Starstream? Please tell me." Clearstar pleaded.
The medicine cat was huffing for breath, "A StarClan warrior came up to me." She said. "It was Lionblaze! He said that a new prophecy is among us."
"Did he tell you the prophecy?"
"Yes he said 'Three of the Storm will join together with the power of the Silver Spark in their blood, they are the ones who will save the Clan.'" She had a bewildered look in eye, like she just saw a ghost; then again she DID just see a ghost, or at least a StarClan ghost.
Specklekit ran down the Highledge and into the nursery. She didn't know what it meant but it had to mean something. When she looked Tundrakit right in the eye he came running up to her.
"What's wrong?" he nudged his sister trying to get her back into reality. Then she shook her head, she couldn't get herself to tell Tundrakit what she heard.
I can't put him in danger like that. She shook her head. "It's nothing. I just realized that telling Clearstar would not be the answer. We have to go look for him by ourselves."
"But where do we look first?" He asked his sister.
She looked him strait in the eye. "He went into the woods."
