Proluge
A light gray tabby tom was running through a forest. The long grass tickled his paws. Rain fell steadily above the forest, turning the sand to mud. The tom skirtted through the mud, covering his paws with mud. He let out an angry hiss.
" Hello? Anyone there?" He yowled. No one answered. He tried again. No one answered.
"It's time, it's time, it's time," Voices murmmed above the rain. It was coming from four trees circling a rock. The tom's ears pricked.
"Who's there?" The cat yowled sharply. But the voices kept mmuttering. The cat slowly crept foward
The tom slowly walked foward towards the trees. He peeked through a bush to see millions of cats muttering to each other. A ginger tabby jumped on a rock followed by a black she-cat, a white tom, a blue gray tom, and a wiry brown she-cat. They all sat down at the smooth rock. The ginger tom flicked his tail at the crowdd. They all fell silent.
"As you all kow," He started, "The Dark Forest are going to attack the clans. And we all know that the worse is yet to come. But we can't save them." Then the cats started to yowl, all their voices angry.
"We have to! We are powerful!"
"We must help the clans!"
"We can't let them destory the clans!"
"Where's my banana?"
The ginger tom closed his eyes. The balck she-cat sitting next to him let out an angry hiss.
"Thunder," She spat, "The rest of StarClan is right. We have to save them! The clans are all going to die because of it! I can't let my clan be destoryed!" The other cats yowled in agreement.
"Thunder is right, Shadow," The white tom meowed calmly, " I know you don't want ShadowClan to be destoryed. I don't want RiverClan to be destoryed either. But we have no power, the Dark Forest stle our powers, rember? There's nothing we could do."
Shadow narrowed her eyes. The gray tom behind the bushses eye's winded. He guessed that they had founded the clans, therefor they're names.
Thunder nodded gratefully at the white tom. " Your right River, there is nothing we can do. We can't even give them the prophecy."
The gray tom's ear's pricked. Another prophecy? What is it this time? He thought.
River nodded and meowed, "Yes. The other one that Jayfeather got is no use anymore. Cinderheart is the fourth cat, and the clans know that the Dark Forest is going to attack."
The wiry brown she-cat sighed, "I have no idea what to say. We are all disagreeing here and we can't send the prophecy to the clans. We can't have contact with them anymore."
"You have a point, Wind, " The blue gray tom spoke for the first time, "We can't contact with the clans anymore. Even though SkyClan is not one of the four clans anymore, I still worry about the four clans because I have kin there."
SkyClan? There are four clans, not five! The tom though, confused by what "SkyClan" was.
"Snooping around again, Jayfeather?" A sigh startled Jayfeather. He turned his head around to see a blue gray-she-cat. Bluestar!
"If there's a prophecy than I have to know!" Jayfeather protested.
"You're right, young one." Bluestar meowed, "And it's strange that you could contact us, the other cats can't."
"How? Why is StarClan not powerful naymore? What's SkyCLan? What is the prophecy?" Jayfeather asked, the words coming out of him like thorns.
Bluestar sighed and closed her eyes, full of sympthay as she explained, "The Dark Forest have taken our powers. They have gained so much power that they are going to take over the world. There's nothing we could do to stop it, so te- I mean nine are the only ones that can save the clans."
Jayfeather still didn't understand it. "Who are the Ten, then? Are me and the rest of the Four part of it? And when you mean that the Dark Forest is going to take over the world, does that mean that they will take over the twolegs and everything else?"
"You ask too many qustions," Bluestar meowed with a hit of annoynce, "And yes, the Dark Forest is going to take over the entire world. And you and the Four are apart of then Nine, and so are cats from the other clans. You will find out the answers soon. But listien to what I have to say."
Jayfeather leaned closer and meowed, "Yes?"
" The Darkest War will occur, and the clans will turn red. But the Nine will save them and shake the world in it's roots."
Jayfeather gasped at the prophecy. It sounded terrible!
"But-" Before Jayfeather could protest, Bluestar fadded into blue mist. Soon after, everything else fadded into blue mist.
"Wait! Tell me more!" Jayfeather yowled, but everything had disspeared.
Jayfeather awoke to blackness. He was blind again. He stood up, shaking the sticky goose feathers out of his fur.
"Jayfeather! Sorreltail has a thorn in her paw!" A voice yowled.
Jayfeather grumbled and sniffed his way into the crack in the storage den. He found the cherivl and gently snatched it with his mouth, tasting the juciy smell.
He quickly ran out of the den, but he still couldn't get the prophecy out of his mind.
And Jayfeather didn't know that the wrose was yet to come...........
