Prologue

Moonlight shone brightly across Thunderclan territory as Silverpelt glimmered above. A ginger she-cat ran through the undergrowth in silence. Just then, she ran into a brown figure.

"Squirrelflight, don't scare me like that!" Leafpool huffed as she picked up her dropped berries. "What are you doing here, anyways?" her sister added. Squirrelflight flicked her tail in annoyance.

"I was out looking for you, that's all. You weren't in camp for a while, so what were you doing?" Squirrelflight murmured. Leafpool took a step back. She looked away from Squirrelflight.
