The black sky stretched over the land. The moon shone majestically in the sky, like a radiant light. Two cats sat inside a clearing.

"What are you telling me?" A mousy brown she-cat hissed.

"Your kit will be the savior of all the clans. You must take your kit into Thunderclan territory and leave him there. I will send their medicine cat, Leafpool, a message to keep him. He will grow as a warrior cat," A shimmering white she-cat meowed calmly.

"But Bluestar, what if he… fails?" the brown she-cat asked, terrified.

"He will have all of Starclan on his side," Bluestar meowed.

"O-okay," the she-cat trembled.

"Do not fear, Tanya. Your kit will succeed," Bluestar pressed her nose into Tanya's fur. "Go now. You will get to Thunderclan by next moonrise. Leave your kit by Thunderclan's border. They will find him and bring him in as their own," Bluestar started to fade away, glistening into tiny stars as she grew fainter. "Starclan go with you!" She yowled before she disappeared from site.

And then, Tanya set off on her journey of a lifetime.
