As Moon stumbled near to what seemed like a rocky half-box, he thought of the night behind him. He had run all the way from the abandoned Twoleg nest, and was now feeling extremely tired. Moon could scent many cats around the thick undergrowth, and padded towards the noises he could hear. As he padded closer to the rocky ledges, he could hear a conversation. "Ashtail, how could you suggest that Lionstar would ever put you on a hunting patrol with me? He knows how we ran off last time together, and sat in that old fox hole all night together! I do love you, but we can't keep it a secret anymore. I'm going to tell them." "Ok, Wildheart, I trust you." Replied Ashtail, with his tail rested on Wildheart's back.
Moon had come to the entrance of the rocky ledges. He wasn't sure if he should enter or not. Would they hurt him? Well, there was no turning back, so Moon entered. "How dare you trespass on ThunderClan territory, little kit!" cried a large, black tom cat that was guarding the entrance. "Go back to where you came from!!!" "Calm down, Darkshadow!" said a golden tom who seemed to have authority over the other cats. "He is only a little kit. Let him be." The cats that were scattered around the clearing now came and gathered around Moon. "I am Moon." He said in a quiet, barely audible voice. Shocked voices came from all around him. He can talk! They all said in a stunned chorus, shocked and eager to learn more."My mother died in the old Twoleg nest when I was being born, and another cat said I should come here when I was born. He told me I was special in Starclan's eyes, whoever they are. I do not know the name of the black cat that spoke to me. I think it was my father." The other cats around Moon remained silent until he was finished. "If this is true, Moon," spoke the golden tom, "then I would like to offer you a place in our Clan. This black cat you speak of seems close to Starclan 'What! Can he do that! No!' Were the cries which sounded around the Rocky ledge. "Do you accept little kit?" said the golden tom. "I accept your offer!" spoke Moon, as loud as he could. "Now then... my name is Lionstar. I will now go and announce your arrival to the clans. You shall be called Moonkit. You will feed from Hawkwing. She has just had a litter." As Lionstar bounded away, shocked mewls came from all around Moon, soon to be Moonkit.
