Prologue

Cherrytail swerved to the side to avoid the claws of a NightClan tom.

"SkyClan! Retreat!" Leafstar called to her Clan.

Cherrytail looked back at her leader, who was fleeing from the rogues of NightClan.

"And they call themselves a Clan?!" Huffed Sharpclaw, who was panting as he fled from NightClan.

Cherrytail was pinned to the ground by a black she-cat with daunting amber eyes.

"You aren't considered a Clan if you can't follow the Warrior Code!" Cherrytail spat, writhing under the mass of night-black fur.

"Not so tough, are we now, Clan cat?" The she-cat hissed into Cherrytail's ear, digging her sharp claws into her calico pelt.

"Get off her!" Screeched Sharpclaw, ripping the she-cat off of Cherrytail.

Suddenly a voice whispered to Cherrytail.

A kit will be born with the power of the sky in her paws.
