As dawn broke a moon after the clan cats were invited to stay with the colony, four new lives came into the world. Silvermoon had finally given birth to her litter.
"I like the name Riverkit for the tawny she-cat. And Ravenkit for the black tom."
"I like those names, Silvermoon. What about Darkkit for the tabby tom and Yellowkit for the cream colored she-cat?"
"Those are beautiful names." Midnightsky broke in.
"Thank you mother. We will only need a quarter moon before we are fit to travel."

Two Moons Later
"Midnightsky, we've traveled from the old territories for five moons now, are we almost there?"
"I'm sorry, Rockheart, I do not know where StarClan wants us. I know you are worried for Silvermoon and your kits, but we need to make sure StarClan knows where we're going."
Midnightsky turned to look behind her where Rockheart, Silvermoon, Hawkflight and Pinkrose were escorting the kits. The little things were walking as if they were dead on their feet. Soon, Hawkflight picked up the runt, Yellowkit, and carried her on his back.
"Midnightsky, please ask Northstar and Shootingstar to stop soon. The kits can't make it much longer."
"Northstar, can we stop soon?" Pleaded Midnightsky, "The kits can't make it much longer."
"I can see a small creek in the distance, we will stop there. It won't be much longer." He assured her.
As they neared the creek, the cats could smell the water, and quickened their pace. They hadn't had anything to drink for many hours.
Finally, NorthClan and LoneClan reached their camp for the night. When Shadowheart bent down to take a drink from the creek, her tail went up.
"StarClan has sent me a sign!" She screeched, "A star in the midnight hours will lead you to your new home! We can't be far away!"
As cats yowled in happiness, Midnightsky was puzzled by the prophecy. "A star in the midnight hours. Who could that be talking about? Me?! I haven't done anything that special in my lifetime that would make me be singled out by StarClan to lead both of the clans to their new homes! I'm still a younger cat!"
"What are you thinking about, Midnightsky?"
The black she-cat was startled out of her thoughts when Hawkflight sat down beside her.
"It's a good sign." He insisted, "We can't be far from our new home."
"That is a great sign." Midnightsky said as she licked her mate's ear.
As the she-cat settled in for the night, she wasn't aware of the doom that tomorrow would bring.
