Rainstar's Spirit

== Prologue: ==
Lilystem followed her mentor, Brownear as they walked down the path that led to the moon pool. She glanced around, spotting the other medicine cats from ThunderClan, WindClan, SkyClan, and RiverClan. She left her mentor's side, and bounded over to the ThunderClan medicine cat apprentice, Whiteblaze.
"Hi, Whiteblaze!" She mewed. "It's great to see you.
"It's great to see you, too!" Whiteblaze responded with a grin. "I've heard that Honeyfire has given birth to four kits a few sunrises ago. How are they?" The ThunderClan medicine cat asked.
"They are doing well." Lilystem responded, whiskers twitching. Whiteblaze dipped her head. "How is ThunderClan?" She asked.
"We're doing fine. well... other then Jayclaw having greencough." Whiteblaze responded nervously. Before the ThunderClan cat could say more, The WindClan medicine cat Dawnfern interrupted them.
"That's enough chatter. Let’s not keep StarClan waiting." She said with a whisk of her tail. When Dawnfern turned away, Whiteblaze rolled her eyes at Lilystem before heading towards Rainrose, her mentor. Lilystem giggled softly, settling down next to Brownear. Then she stopped as she suddenly felt a cat's gaze hit her shoulders. Curious, she turned her head. The other medicine cats were asleep, and she couldn't smell any cats, so there was no one else there. But the sensation grew, and her fur started to rise. She shook herself. I'm just imagining things. She thought. Yeah, that's it. I'm imagining it. Still unsure, Lilystem leaned forward, pressing her nose into the ice-cold water.
She blinked open her eyes, expecting to see some StarClan cats. Instead, she was standing in pitch black darkness. Next to her a small puddle. Suddenly nervous, Lilystem looked around into the gloom, looking for the sparkly appearance of her warrior ancestors. Nothing. Shivering, she turned around to study the puddle.
"Shadows are rising." a cat meowed. Lilystem jumped, fur bristling. She looked around again. There was still no other cat in sight. The only other thing she heard was the echo of a distant wind. Then the voice came again.
"Shadows are rising, shadows that can tear apart all five Clans. And only one cat, with a spirit that shines as bright as the stars above us, will be able to save them. Before she could react, she saw moment in the puddle, and looked down. She made out the reddish glow of a flame, and as it got clearer, the image changed, and a blue grey she-cat was facing a tortoiseshell tom, a kit cowering behind her. The tortoiseshell moved quickly. He lashed out a paw, grazing the other cat's muzzle. She didn't even flinch, and her blue eyes flashed defiantly as she bared her teeth when the tortoiseshell took a threating step forward. Lilystem's eyebrows scrunched up in concern. What's going on? She crouched down, trying to make out the three cats. She had a strong feeling that she knew the two adults. She peered harder. As she did so, the image grew even more clear, and Lilystem blinked in surprise as she recognized the tortoiseshell tom. Fernshadow...? Wait- Shadow... Shadows are rising.... Lilystem has never been so confused. She shook her head. There's no time to question what I'm seeing. Lilystem shifted her gaze to the blue cat. She looked a lot like Honeyfire's one kit, Rainkit. And this is an event in the future of course... only a cat with a spirit that shines as bright as the stars.... Rainspirit? Before she could survey it more, a flame appeared, engulfing the scene. Lilystem blinked and sat up, stunned. A twig snapped from behind, and when Lilystem looked behind her, there was a brown cat. Once her eyes adjusted to the gloom, she could make out Honeyfrost. The brown she-cat walked up to the Lilystem.
"Now that you have received a prophecy, I'm going to trust you to tell the other medicine cats and for you all not to tell anyone else." Lilystem flicked her tail when Honeyfrost finished.
"Okay, but there's something I don't understand... Why would Fernshadow attack a Clanmate?" Honeyfrost's whiskers twitched.
"That is something I cannot answer. You'll understand all of this sooner or later, but it will take time. Until then, keep an eye on Rainkit for us." Lilystem raised her head.
"Okay, Honeyfrost," She replied. "I won't let you down." Satisfaction flashed in Honeyfrost's eyes as the brown she-cat began to fade. The next moment Lilystem was back next to the Moon pool. When she looked up, Lilystem saw Whiteblaze standing over her, whiskers twitching irritably.
"Finally!" She groaned, with a roll of her green eyes. "I thought I was going to have to wait on you the entire night. The other cats are already far ahead! Now let’s catch up before it gets any darker!" Lilystem got to her paws and followed White up the slope. As they walked, Lilystem couldn't help glancing at her friend, thinking back to the prophecy. Could she trust the ThunderClan cat to keep what Lilystem saw a secret? She shook her fur. She was going to have to. But the only thing was if she was even ready to tell them.
