I just want to preface this chapter saying that Firestorm is in fact a tom, not a she-cat. Enjoy!

As Seedkit opened her eyes for the first time, there were mews of delight throughout the nursery. "Finally, after the rest of Brackenpelt's litter died of hunger, this kit is a great omen to the clan!" said the small gray she-cat. "Yes, they are," murmured the large gray tom distractedly. "What should we name him?" said the orange tom. "How about Seedkit, after her pelt color?" said the queen she was sitting next to. "Its perfect." said the orange tom. However pleased Seedkit was with her name, she could not help but wonder why the gray tom seemed so distracted.

"Do you think this is Seedkit is the new growth that Littlestar prophesied about before he died?" asked Stonefang. "I'm not sure, as I haven't been able to go to the Moonpond as you very well know Stonefang," Sparkpaw emphasized the fang part of his name because the Moonpond was dried up, so he couldn't get his nine lives or name as leader. "But if this is the storm he spoke about-" Stonefang was cut off by the roar of thunder above, "It looks as if we're about to find out."
