Greenmane sat in his den, tending to a sick cat when it hit him.

A vision sent from starclan had come to him after months of hoping for a sign of anything that would prophesize the future of Rubyclan, However, this prophecy confused him.

He finished his work on the cat's wounds and ended up giving the fluffy white tom some syrup made from bramble twigs to help him sleep.

When Greenmane was absolutely sure the young warrior was sleeping soundly, he rushed out of the medicine cat's den and into the leader's den.

"Wickerstar!"Greenmane called urgently.

The Light brown tabby lifted her head and looked up at the black and grey manx.

"Yes Greenmane? What is it?" Wickerstar mewed quietly.

"I've received a vision from starclan." He stated.

At this, Wickerstar sat up quickly.

"A vision?" she inquired. ,"What did it say? Is Rubyclan's future bright? Tell me!"

Greenmane quickly began to recite the message he recived from starclan.

"The Fates of red and black are intertwined under the veil of the night." Greenmane shook his head."I'm not particularly sure what it means. All I know is that the fate of Rubyclan rests in darkness."

Wickerstar looked at Greenmane for a second then dismissed him. when Greenmane had left, Wickerstar laid down again. Greenmane's words echoed in her ears as she thought herself into sleep.
