|Prologue|

Snow covered the forest floor, as the icy chill of another leaf-bare breeze swept across the clearing a light brown tabby she-cat with white paws, and ice blue eyes padded forward her attention directed on the sky full of bright shining stars of her warrior ancestors, 'Oh Liontooth if only I didn't have to hide the truth from our kits' she thought. The image of the handsome dark ginger tabby with red eyes filled her mind; the JewlClan warrior had died one day after their kits were born. "Diamondstar," a voice called from behind the she-cat, quickly she turned around "Oh..." she mewed lightly, "Leafspots it's you…" The light brown tabby dipped her head to respect Leafspots arrival. The tortoiseshell she-cat sat down "Talking with StarClan," Leafspots mew came to be surprisingly cheerful instead of worried "And Liontooth?" the medicine cat finished quickly as she stared at her leader with wide green eyes.

"I guess I cannot hide it much longer can I Leafspots," Diamondstar muttered. The young medicine cat brushed her pelt against the leaders soft light tabby fur "You're not Diamondbreeze anymore, you're Diamondstar now. Liontooth's mate and the mother of Shimerpaw, Cresentpaw, and Crystalpaw." Leafspots licked the she-cats ear "You'll make the right choice, I still believe in my big sister." Dipping her head Leafspots disappeared toward the JewlClan camp. 'Thank you Leafspots, I will protect you. And I will be a good leader I promise my dear sister.' She redirected her attention back to the stars that shone above her head in the night sky.
