Prologue

A dark figure steps out of the shadows. Its whiskers twitch as the stale wind of the dark forest blows gently. The cat looks at another figure coming from the clearing.

"Darkstripe," The cat nodded in greeting.

The grey tabby tom dipped his head. "Tigerstar, have you seen the new apprentices in ThunderClan? Two of them are Firestar's kin."

The broad shouldered, orange tabby tom flicked his ears back slightly. "Why would I care about ThunderClan's apprentices?" Then realization flickered across his gaze. "Another chance to get back at Firestar for what he did to me."

Darkstripe nodded. His eyes flickered back to the clearing as more cats entered. "Perhaps we should talk about this some other time."

Tigerstar narrowed his gaze slightly. "Perhaps I shall extend an invitation to the apprentices." With that he turned towards the darkness once more. "Darkstripe, start training the newcomers." He called over his shoulder before dispersing into nothing once again.
