Hi-Hi!! Thanx to my only and favorite reviewer... MAXRIDEFAN35!! Sorry to my people who read the first chappie- well that's everyone that read this but- I changed Max's name to Sunfeather and Fang's to Nightwing- THANX AND SORRY!! This is based later in the New Prophecy after the mountains. Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw are not in love yet, but wait!!
Brambleclaw's POV:
As I walked through the tunnel, I heard the Clan buzzing with excitement. There was to be a Gathering tonight and a rivalry had a rrose between ShdowClan and WindClan. Everyone was waiting for the outcome.
"Brambleclaw- come here!" an excited mew came from the medicine cat's den. I looked over to find the two sisters, Leafpool, the medicine cat's apprentice, and Squirreflight, the annoying she-cat. I sighed and walked over.
The usually calm Leafpool, was now bouncing with excitement. And the usually hyper Squirreflight was shaking with shock.
"Guess what?" Squirreflight asked when we were far enough into the den so no one could hear us.
"I don't know" I said dully, but the two she-cats were unfazed.
"Cinderpelt saw a prophecy!" everything inside me froze. Cinderpelt was the medicine cat of my Clan, ThunderClan. It was rare for the medicine cat to see much from the warriors of StarClan despite their strong connection.
"What was it about?" I said quickly.
"It said 'Soon six cats will come. They will be different from our own and break the rivalry between each Clan. Nothing with be the same'" Leafpool mewed hesitantly.
"We wanted to tell you because we knew you would feel the need to do something. Even if it was a bad choice we couldn't hold it in much longer" Squirreflight murmured innocently. I grimaced.
"I won't do anything bad" I replied defensively. They both nodded their heads.
The rest of the day, that ominous message stuck with me. It had my insides turned and twisting whenever I thought about it. I was dying to get out of the camp. Finally at sun-high, I was able to. The fresh-kill pile was getting low and I decided to ask Firestar if I could go on a hunting patrol.
"That's fine" he said. "But can you set up one on your own?" he asked. "I'm speaking to Cinderpelt right now" I nodded all-too-knowingly and turned around.
Dustpelt, who was sitting nearby heard and offered to come along.
"Can Squirreflight come along- she could use the practice" Dustpelt mewed. I internally groaned. Great. Just great. I wanted a break, but now instead I get to listen to Squirreflight's constant chatter.
"Sandstorm- could you come on a hunting patrol-" I was cut off.
"I know- I know- I'm coming" she said, giving her fur a last lick and getting up to stretch.
Sunlight dappled to camp in golden light and gave off an unearthly shine. Ashfur, sitting beside Sandstorm, also got up.
"I guess I'll go too" he mewed and we began through the tunnel. For the entire patrol Ashfur and Squirreflight were lagging behind, whining about the mouse bile and elders.
Just great.
Max's POV:
We finally reached a forest. With the help of Bluestar, we had made it here in under an hour and no one was tired yet.
"Sunfeather... Silverbeak... Nightwing... Treeflight... Cloudpaw... Birdpaw... you have made it... now become warriors..." the voice faded off and suddenly I felt my body changing. I looked at everyone and gasped slightly. They were all turning into... cats?
"Sunfeather... you are the prophecy... the Clans need you..." my whole body convulsed and I glanced at the others. They too were whithering on the ground in pain.
"You must learn the knowledge of the Clans. I give you nine lives" unbearable amounts of pain shot through my body nine times. When it had finished, I was left lying on the ground. Slowly struggling to my feet, I saw the Flock. Iggy was a silver-blue color. Fang was a dark dark black. Nudge was a light brown like bark color. Angel and Gazzy were both pure white but Angel's pelt was a bit softer- or so it looked. And mine was... a golden color with brown spots over my eyes and up and down my back. I saw all this through the reflection of the lake.
The lake. The Great Journey. ThunderClan. WindClan. ShadowClan. RiverClan. Tigerstar. I ground my teeth at the last. Traitor.
How did I suddenly know this? Don't ask me. I just do.
As soon as I rounded everyone up, we began making our way through the trees. Somehow I knew this was the way to ThunderClan camp. We crossed a river and a creek, a few fallen trees and made our way through various plants.
We were suddenly met with a tunnel.
Brambleclaw's POV:
We had gotten back a while ago with plenty of food for the Clan. I was now lying in the sun next to Brightheart and Cloudtail. Suddenly, heard paw-steps in the tunnel and everyone turned their head. In came six cats. The prophecy. The breath froze in my chest.
Firestar walked out. "Ah- hello, Sunfeather!" a beautiful golden she-cat bowed her head.
"Hello, Firestar. As you know Nightwing" she signaled to a pitch-black tom with broad shoulders "Silverbeak" the a siver-gray tom was just as strong as Nightwing "Treeflight" another pretty brown she-cat stood there "and Cloudpaw and Birdpaw" two small white cats stood there, one she-cat with a softer pelt and a tom with shorter fur- both has blue eyes.
"I know who they are, Sunfeather" Firestar said teasingly. The she-cat smiled.
"I know, but everyone else doesn't"
"Fine- Cats of ThunderClan! Let all cats old enough to catch there own prey join here beneath the High Rock for a clan meeting!" he bellowed and many curious cats gathered at the bottom. I stood up and made my way over. Squirrelflight sat down next to me.
"See" she said.
"I believed you" I replied snidely and she just turned her face back to Firestar.
The six cats were already at the top sitting down next to each other. Nightwing and Sunfeather were conversing softly while Treeflight was speaking to Silverbeak. He's blind! I thought in shock. The two little apprentices were puffing out there chests and play fighting, claws sheathed.
"These are the six cats StarClan has told us about! Welcome them with gratitude!" Firestar mewed. A chorus of grateful meows came from the Clan. "They will be staying with us for a while and I need you to make them feel at home" with that short speach, Firestar strode into his den and the meeting ended. Squirrelflight had left my side and gone to speak to Treeflight who also seemed like a chatterbox.
Silverbeak was talking to Brightheart. Cloudpaw and Birdpaw were playing with Whitepaw, the only apprentice in the Clan now. Nightwing was talking to Cloudtail, they seemed to be getting along. Sunfeather was lounging in a sun spot with her eyes closed.
I walked over. "Mind if I join you?" I asked. She opened her eyes and looked at me.
"No" she said quietly. I lied down.
"Can you help me with something?" she asked.
"Sure"
"Have you ever fallen in love?" she asked wistfully.
"No- not yet" I said sadly.
"Neither have I" her spirt not yet broken. "But I think I will eventually" I nodded. "Maybe someone that's right under my nose" she let out a mmrrow of laughter. "I sound so cliche" she suddenly jumped up. "Do you want to go hunting? I'll do anything to get out- I need some fresh air" I chuckled.
"Let's go!" we both bounded out of the camp and through the tunnel.
She was something different.
Max's Quick POV:
I think I have finally made a friend. His name is Brambleclaw- I have this feeling that I can just open up to him. I think that I'll sleep next to him tonight. He give me a sense of security. Strangely enough.
Hope you LOVED it!! R&R!! PLEASE
LUV YA!!
