CHAPTER 5: Moonkit
The small grey she kit squirmed in her nest, letting out mewls in her sleep, actively dreaming as usual. She found her self in Starclan, a place that was unusually familiar to the small kit. A place where she often met her mother.
"Momma?" The small she cat called out, her gaze searching for the familiar grey pelt of her mother.
"Hello Moonkit." A quiet mew came from behind her.
Moonkit turned and let out a happy squeal as she ran into her mothers warm fur, breathing in the comforting smell. She cherished her time with her mother.
"I have something to tell you my sweet daughter." Half moons mew broke through Moonkits happy purring.
The grey she kit looked up at her mother, noticing how something seemed to be troubling her.
"What is it Momma?" She asked earnestly, her blind blue eye more focused than usual. Only in Starclan could the kit see clearly from both eyes, having inherited blindness in one eye from her father which was very unusual but better than being completely blind.
"From the kin of the four, there will be born six. Darkness will rise and all will be lost when the shadows swallow the light. The six hold the fate of the clans in their paws." Half moon meow echoed through the vast Starclan hunting grounds.
"I must be one of the six right? Who are the other five?" Moonkit exclaimed in excitement, not the least amount put off by the foreboding prophecy.
"You really are something Moonkit. I always knew you were destined for greatness." Half moon purred. "But don't take this prophecy lightly. You have a difficult road ahead of you."
Moonkit looked up at her in wonder as her mothers form began to fade. Moonkit woke up with a start in her own nest, her adoptive siblings squirming restlessly against her on both sides. A prophecy about her! How exciting! Moonkits mind was reeling, her fur fluffed up in excitement. She always had a slight intuition about things that other cats didn't seem to have. She always seemed to know things she shouldn't. Moonkit knew her extra instinct was bound to lead her to the other 5 in the prophecy. She often wondered if her extra instinct was because she was the famous Starclan kit and daughter to one of the phrophesied 4. She must be one of the six because her father was one of the 4 that helped defeat the Dark Forest! Moonkit curled her tail up in satisfaction, satisfied with her deduction. She looked around at her den mates. She had to find out who the other five were! The clan might depend on it! Moonkits stomach grumbles much to her embarrassment. She wasn't going to figure anything out on an empty stomach.
Moonkit bounded our of the nursery, it was still early so the fresh kill pile was looking pitifully small. Moonkit picked out a mouse but as she turned she ran into Sandstorm.
"I sure hope that mouse is for me! After all Elders eat first. You young cats can wait for the dawn patrol to return." Sandstorm mewed, her tail curling with amusement as Moonkit dropped the mouse at her paws.
"Ofcourse." Moonkit mumbled, staring at the mouse longingly.
Sandstorm nodded in satisfaction and carried the mouse off to a secluded part of camp.
"Tough luck." Scarletpaw mewed sympathetically, coming up next to her cousin.
"I'm going to starve." Moonkit sighed dramatically.
"Hardly." Scarletpaw snorted with amusement.
Moonkit likes her spunky, rebellious cousin who had almost as much energy as she did and found herself often spending time with the apprentice who didn't seem to mind having a young kit around. Suddenly she had an idea. She just had to tell someone about this prophecy!
"Can you keep a secret?" Moonkit mewed excitedly.
"Sure I can." Scarletpaw responded, her head tilting curiously.
"Well I had this dream…" Moonkit began.
Moonkit told Scarletpaw about her meeting with her mother and all about the prophecy, at the end Scarletpaw stared at her bewildered.
"You do believe me, don't you?" Moonkit mewed earnestly, her gaze so intense you almost wouldn't believe she was half blind.
"Ofcourse I do! Because I'm in it!" Scarletpaw mewed, her confusion vanishing as her eyes gleamed.
"What…" Moonkit trailed off, now it was her turn to be confused.
"Well you're Jayfeathers only daughter which Ofcourse makes you one of the six. And I'm Squirrelflights daughter who happens to be the kin of the prophesied 4! So I must be one of the six!" Scarletpaw finished confidently, her fur fluffed up in excitement.
Moonkit tilted her head thoughtfully, it was very possible that Scarletpaw could be one of the six but her special intuition made her feel like something wasn't right.
"You're not Squirrelflight only daughter." Moonkit mewed at last, the she kit was always very honest, sometimes too honest. She always spoke her mind.
"But I could be one of the six! After all you told me about the prophecy! Not my brother or sisters!" Scarletpaw protested rather loudly.
"Shhh! Keep your voice down!" Moonkit mewed urgently as a few cats glanced in their direction but then turned away and went back to their conversations. "You could be one of the six" Moonkit mewed at last, not wanting to discourage her friend when she very well could be one of the six.
"Obviously! Now we need to figure out this prophecy and figure out the other four." Scarletpaw mewed confidently.
Moonkit still wasn't convinced Scarletpaw was one of the six but she had to admit that having another cat to brainstorm with and share her secret would be nice. The two she cats mewed quietly to each other. Moonkit was determined to fulfill her destiny. After all, the fate of the clans might depend on it.
