~PROLOGUE~
A dusty brown tabby tom with deep green eyes stood on a smooth hard rock with another cat, a small calico cat with soft blue eyes. "What will become of us Berryfall?" Started the tabby staring wide-eyed at the moonlit sky. The calico cat turned to the dusty tabby "Starclan knows Mushroomstar.." mewed the calico softly "have you had a sign for starclan?" suggested the tabby, but the response was silence "Berryfall?" Berryfall closed her eyes as rain started to come down. When Berryfall opened her eyes they were brighter "Starclan told me with a new litter comes a new hope." she mewed "there's always new hope with litters!" Mushroomstar growled suddenly "how is that going to help us?" Berryfall stared at him "there is different hope in this litter, an orange tabby she-kit will be born, with hope to guide us in this state, and they will share the hope us!"
~CHAPTER 1~
~SECRET~
~SECRET~
Burnkit rolled over with a squeal as Nettlekit- her littermate -pushed her over holding the Moss Ball "ha! I win again!" she teased "But that's not surprising, because i'm not a runt!" Burnkit growled "I'm just as good as any of you!!" she leaped and knocked the Moss Ball out of Nettlekit's grasp into Graykit's. But Graykit was on Nettlekit's team "oh no!" she mewed "Hawk-kit! Graykits got the ball!" Hawk-kit ran past Burnkit and leaped at Graykit "ha!" He mewed. "Looks like we win! Again!" Nettlekit hissed and went to find Paleclaw, Hawk-kit's Burnkit's and Nettlekit's father.
Nettlekit found her father sharing tongues with his brother, Tall-legs. "Hi!" she mewed excitedly, her father turned and let out a purr of welcome, "hello there my kit, do you want some fresh-kill?" he asked flicking his tail to the pile. Nettlekit nodded, she was hungry, and she lost, to the runt Burnkit! (no wonder she's called Burnkit then) She found a mouse and began to eat, when Mushroomstar called a meeting, next to him was Mosspaw and Berryfall.
It was Berryfall who spoke first "as some of you know, Mosspaw is becoming a full medicine cat, and since it is the night of the half-moon me and Mosspaw will be going to go to the Moonfalls tonight with the other medicine cats, which means that after tonight, you will no longer know Mosspaw by her apprentice name." Berryfall paused to take a breath. "Instead you will know her as her medicine cat name... Me and Mushroomstar agreed that you can use the rest of the time of the day to congratulate and say farewell to her apprentice name."
Mosspaw was looking bright-eyed and excited, then Mushroomstar dismissed the clan and then spoke to Mosspaw and Berryfall, Berryfall seemed to nod and Mosspaw seemed to look at Nettlekit from time to time. Confused Nettlekit went back to the nursery to rest by her mother.

~CHAPTER 2~
~A NEW CLAN~
Tinystar felt a sudden shake beneath her paws, brambles began to fall, "evacuate!" Called a voice, Tinystar had to squint her eyes to see who it was, Racingwater! Her loyal deputy was trying to save the clan, while she sat in her den awoken by the earthquake. Tinystar got up and trotted towards Racingwater "thank you, Racingwater" she murmured flicking her tail close to the ground. Half the clan was out of their dens, only Pebblestep, Lightstripe and Messyfur was left, but even she could see them getting up ready to evacuate "run! Go RockClan we must go somewhere the earthquake has not reached. Cats followed her orders as quickly as it took her to bring back a mouse or two for the clan's fresh kill.
Tinystar addressed her clan not far from where the earthquake happened, in a nearby log, she called her clan out and started speaking. "Cats of RockClan, as you know we are new to this forest, which means we do not have the strength to deal with this..." She paused as she scented something, but couldn't identify what it was, she shook her head and started to speak again "... Me and a patrol will explore the territory for help with other cats that we hope to find in this territory, I want my deputy, Racingwater to stay here and keep the clan running." Tinystar looked over to her deputy for his answer, it was just a simple nod of agreement. "Lightstripe, Minkwhisker and Crystaleye with me," she went over to Minkwhisker and whispered in his ear "I want you to guide Crystaleye." she went over to her patrol and began to walk into unknown territory.
Tinystar began to walk towards the border, the others by her side, she gave a quick sniff at the weird cat scent mixed with her clans and padded across, she scented two cat scents and brought her clan to a halt whats with these weird scents? she thought walking towards it, then she spotted two cats walking towards them, one calico with blue eyes the other muddy brown with a lighter tipped tail and green eyes, they only just seemed to have spotted them and were running towards them, the calico stopped and gave them a sniff "who are you, and what are you doing here?" The cat asked in a quite rude tone.
Tinystar opened her mouth to answer when the other cat spoke, "Berryfall, these cats mean no harm! This one's only just the size of an apprentice-" Tinystar interrupted them with a loud hiss "an apprentice!? I'm no apprentice, i'm the leader of Rockclan!" There was a gasp from the other cat then there was silence, she noticed Berryfall narrowing her eyes, then she spoke "Rockclan? What is Rockclan, kit?" There was a small hiss from Lightstripe, no the whole patrol was hissing, "you're obviously older cats than this one, why follow her?" Berryfall mewed with disgust at her warriors, and medicine cat, "no she is the oldest among us!" Growled Lightstripe lashing his tail "dont call her an apprentice just because of her size!" Berryfall flashed a glance at all of them "then tell me your names, my apprentice here is called Mossleaf, my name is Berryfall, i'm the medicine cat, we're from Redclan." Tinystar bowed her head and introduced herself "I am Tinystar, Crystaleye over here is our medicine cat, those two are Lightstripe and Minkwhisker, they are warriors." Mossleaf gave them all a respectful nod "no wonder you're called Tinystar!" She mewed giving Tinystar a sniff, "but if you're from another clan why did you cross our border?"
Tinystar felt Minkwhisker stiffen beside her, she was about to tell him to calm down when she saw what made him go so still, Berryfall looked like she was in a pose to attack them! She opened her mouth in a loud hiss "are you going to attack us?!" She heard Crystaleye letting out a mix of a gasp and hiss Mossleaf looked ready to pounce too, now that she noticed her, Lightstripe started to speak in an annoyed voice "attack us and-" "Lightstripe!" Growled Tinystar angrily "we'll tell them why we crossed the border! Not claws or fang involved okay?" Lightstripe obeyingly stepped back, "we crossed the border because of an earthquake," she started slowly, Mossleaf looked like she was going to get back up but her fur was fluffed out and her paws were stretched in front of her still, so Tinystar was still wary of the possibility of attack "we came for supplies and help..." Her voice turned apologetic and Berryfall got up "i'm sorry Tinystar.. We did hear a low grumble from over there when we went to the Moonfalls.." Berryfall started "...But we didn't think of any other cat living here, so we didn't check it out.." Mossleaf finished "we could take you to camp.." Mossleaf's eyes were dark and she shook her head "but I don't know how Mushroomstar will react.."
Berryfall spoke in a prouder tone not just to the Rockclan members, but to her apprentice too "i'm sure Mushroomstar will understand!" she mewed brushing her tail over Mossleaf, the Rockclan cats glanced at each other, then one cat spoke, as if he spoke for all of Rockclan "we agree" Lightstripe mewed, Tinystar gave him a swift glance and Berryfall wondered what the leader decided. But her head lifted and she nodded. "C'mon Mossleaf we need to get these cats to the camp!" Berryfall meowed when Mossleaf was behind them all, they were as few fox-lengths from camp and she wanted to get there, and fast.
~Chapter 3~
~AN OMEN OF HOPE~
Mushroomstar was sitting on the Red Rock, cleaning himself when he heard pawsteps and smelt an unknown cat scent coming through the camp entrance, he noticed his guards were giving some cats suspicious looks, one looking the size of an apprentice, with 3 cats big enough to be warriors surrounded her, he leaped of the dusty rock and padded towards the newcomers, he also noticed his two medicine cats with them, "welcome back you two, what's Mosspaw's medicine cat na-" He purred suddenly getting interrupted by the overly-excited medicine cat apprentice, "i'm Mossleaf now!" She mewed her eyes wide "also these 'Rockclan' members, want to talk to you.."
After Mushroomstar greeted them and led them to his den, he started asking questions "first off what is Rockclan?" He asked, he was surprised to hear the apprentice answer him and the warriors not even stepping forward to talk "well Rockclan is a clan, like yours, nothing else you need to know!" The she-cat answered lifting her white muzzle high up into the air "anyway, i'm Tinystar-" "Stop right there kit, why would Starclan and your warriors accept a young cat like you as their leader?" Suddenly asked his deputy who happened to be guarding the entrance at this time. "Oh be quiet Firewing! Cats can be small you know!" But even though he trusted his answer he still felt confused why this apprentice sized leader was accepted as leader "actually, I am interested what you and your warriors are doing here Tinystar."
There was a pause before Tinystar started to speak "Well, we had an earthquake in our territory, and we wanted help" the she-cat answered shakily, "well if you give me time to think I might help you and let you stay in our forest.. But i'm not sure yet." Tinystar dipped her head and got up, calling her warriors with her. That night Mushroomstar had a confusing dream, but he assumed it was because of his thoughts whether or not he should let this new clan stay or not.
Mossleaf couldn't sleep, not because she was restless after her visit to the moonstone, it was because something was calling her out, she decided to go out for a walk, after she left her camp she noticed her paws were taking he to the Endless River, she sat and looked down, it was flowing fast today, some small red rocks fell in, she waited for the rocks to get carried away since they were so small and the river was incredibly fast, but they didn't move, not even the red dust came off. The water was still rippling even though she stayed there for what thought was like a hour, then she mewed words that came into her mind when she noticed them, "No matter how small rocks will stay with red and will create a ripple in time forever"
"A prophecy!" Mossleaf meowed standing up her whiskers twitching "a prophecy! From Starclan! To me! I have to tell Berryfall and find out what it means!" Quickly she headed back to camp.
Burnkit awoke, lifting her head to see Mossleaf at the entrance of camp, suddenly she felt a lump of weight land on her. "Greykit!" She growled noticing the fluffy furball had rolled onto her "Greykit! Wake up and move away!" Suddenly Greykit lifted up his head and politely got up and sat next to her. Then Nettlekit woke up, then Hawk-kit. Only their mothers were asleep, Burnkit got up and padded to her littermates "goodmorning Nettle-" "go away Burnkit! I'm making a plan with Hawk-kit to wake mother up and you're not joining!" Burnkit stared at her older siblings, she decided to shake it off and pad outside "where are you going Burnkit?" Asked a voice from behind her, it was Greykit. "Oh uhh.."
