The Third Book 1: New Strength

by ShadowVisions

The Third is my version of Omen of the Stars. Dovekit and Ivykit are concerned about the mysterious prophecy, and several encounters lead up to the final showdown of the lake! Please note that this is an old story continued, chapters 17 and on are good!

11. Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Firestar read off a list of cats going to the Gathering: "Squirrelflight, Dustpelt, Sandstorm, Whitewing, Thornclaw, Spiderleg, Birchfall, Cinderheart, Poppyfrost, Lionblaze, Foxfur, Icetail, Bumblepaw, Briarpaw, Blossompaw, Dovepaw, Ivypaw". Dovepaw was excited; this would be her first Gathering! She would be able to meet apprentices from other Clans- and find out some great news, too. Firestar signaled for the cats going to the Gathering, and Dovepaw got in line behind Whitewing. Firestar led them down a trail into WindClan territory, then around the water's edge. At last they crossed the tree bridge onto the island. The leaders bounded up into the lowest branches on the tree; the deputies sat below. Dovepaw went to go find some apprentices to talk to.

In front of a bush Dovepaw could see a group of apprentices, she padded over to greet them. By the scents, she could tell that three of them were RiverClan, and two were WindClan. "Hi, I'm Dovepaw." she mewed. "Hello! I'm Petalpaw." meowed a she-cat. "These are my kin, Pricklepaw and Grasspaw, and our friends from WindClan are Sedgepaw and Swallowpaw. They will be warriors soon!" Petalpaw concluded. Dovepaw was about to sit down and chat, but then she heard Leopardstar's yowl: "The Clans are at peace beneath Silverpelt. It is time for the Gathering to begin!"

This is the 1/4 mark in Book 1!
