Prologue
Dew misted the russet-colored cat's pelt. His head was down in attempt to shelter from the strong gusts of wind that froze him to the bone.
"Redthorn!" a voice called out from behind a tree, the russet tom looked up.
"Hollyberry, what news do you have for me?" Redthorn asked.
A black she-cat with green eyes greeted him.
"I have a prophecy for you," Hollyberry's voice was grave; "The bright flower will be crushed by the claws of frost and the blizzard will be cast away by its own. The following clouds will strengthen the blizzard and help it travel on.
"What does this mean?" Redthorn cried, but it was too late, Hollyberry had faded away.
"Redthorn! Redthorn! Honeyflower's kits are coming!" his apprentice, Oakpaw, prodded him awake.
"Ok, I'm coming. Bring some borage and some wet moss," Redthorn hurried to the nursery. A ginger she-cat let out a cry, "The first one's coming, Honeyflower, here; take the wet moss."
The queen bent forward and licked the moss. By sunrise five kits where nestled beside her.
"Oakpaw, go fetch Snowstar; he would like to see his kits," Redthorn commanded his apprentice.
Oakpaw nodded his head, vanishing in the already strengthened sunlight. A second later the long-haired ginger apprentice re-appeared followed by a huge white tom; pale gray stripes running along his coat. His ice-blue eyes were cold; but warmed up when he saw his mate and kits.
"How are you?" Snowstar nuzzled his mate, "Redthorn, Oakpaw, you may leave now."
The medicine cat and his apprentice quickly left the den.
"I've been better," Honeyflower replied, "Let's name them."
Snowstar nodded his head, "The large white tom looks like he would make a great warrior and the ginger tabby she-kit looks almost like you. I'm sure the gray tabby tom would make a good warrior too, his coat will blend in both in winter and summer."
"Then how about we name the large white tom Hailkit and the gray tom Icekit?" Honeyflower asked.
"I've always liked the name Lilykit, how about that for the she-kit?" Snowstar asked.
Honeyflower nodded, "The other two white kits look weak, especially that tiny she-kit."
Snowstar sadly agreed, "The white tom we can name Cloudkit, his pelt is as white as the clouds this fine morning. Let's give the name Blizzardkit to the she-kit; hopefully she'll have the strength of a blizzard and make it through the following days and nights."
"Dirtstreak, you have two she-kits!" Violetfur announced.
Dirtstreak pushed himself into the cramped nursery to see his mate, Leopardfur, with two kits at her belly. He sniffed the golden she-kit with brown spots first, then the dark tabby one.
"Have you already named them?" he growled.
Leopardfur nodded her head, "The spotted one I named Spottedkit; I figure that she would make a great warrior or queen if she wanted to. I named the dark tabby Featherkit."
Dirtstreak hissed, "Why would you name a cat like her after Softfeather? Do you want her to grow up as a medicine cat?"
"What's wrong with my sister?" Leopardfur snarled, "She died a warrior's death after all, defending me from that fox!"
Dirtstreak shook his head, "I'm sorry, Leopardfur, I didn't mean to upset you. It's just that I was, and still am, mad at her for becoming a medicine cat; she broke your heart when you learned she wouldn't be training with you."
"-And yours," Dirtstreak didn't hear his mate grunt.
"Dirtstreak, you're on hunting patrol!" Farsight, the deputy called out.
Dirtstreak, after saying goodbye to his mate and kits, rushed out of the den only to bump into Violetfur, spilling her precious bundle of herbs on the ground.
Violetfur looked up, but instead of anger in her eyes they shown with something else.
"The feather will float away with the wind, only to fall. The gentle breeze will pick her back up again and take her far away where the darkness can't reach her," the medicine cat's voice was low; like she was mesmerized.
Dirtstreak realized that she had just said a prophecy, but before the tom could ask what it was about Violetfur had picked up her herbs and left. Dirtstreak shook his head; he was an ordinary warrior, what could he do about a prophecy?
A/N: So, to those who reviewed, did you like it better? Send me a PM about what you thought. To those of you that haven't reviewed please review and tell me what you think!
The Last Moongazer: I know, Dirtstreak deserves his name, though, you'll see more about him in later chapters. And you don't have the prophecies figured out completely :P Partly, but keep guessing XD
TO THE REST OF YOU... REVEIW!
