"Wake up, kit." a soft voice whispered to me. At first I thought I was still dreaming. I open one eye and look out surprised to see a molted tabby in front of me. It was obvious that that is was a she-cat, and her fur was sleek and looked as if stars danced in her pelt.
"Who….are you…." I meowed softly, still have asleep. I sat up and looked around. It was about moonhigh and Barley and dad were still asleep.
"I am Spottedleaf, young kit," she answered my question. She noticed me watching Barley and dad and let a little mrrow of laughter loose. "They can't see me, only you can, little kit."
"Why can't they see you?" I asked purely puzzled by this beautiful she-cat.
"They do not walk the stars like you do, Star." Spottedleaf spoke my name with such seriousness and tenderness that I had to look to her. Her stance showed no sign of problems, but her eyes betrayed he feelings of sadness and worry.
"Tell me, Spottedleaf, why are you here today?"
"A new prophecy has been reveled, and you are a part of it."
"A prophecy? Like for the clans?"
"Yes, you must leave the safety of the farm and go to the lake."
"Why me? Can dad come?"
"No, Star, he is not needed in the prophecy like you are, but you are not alone my dear. Starclan walks with you, and we watch over from the skies. The Three need you as soon as possible."
"Really? Is that a good thing?"
"Yes, you are strong, wise, and skillful. You'll leave very soon, sleep kit."
"Can you tell me the prophecy?" I asked fading into sleep.
"The Jay and Dove will soar, the Lion will roar, and Bramble and Ivy will tangle their enemies, with the help of the Stars…"
She faded from my sight as I fell back into a dream.
