Moth Flight's Vision/Cliffnotes

======
*Moth Flight is asleep and during her dream, she spots a blue-gray she-cat laying in a ditch. The she-cat is bleeding heavily and struggles to breathe.
*There are other cats around. A dark brown tabby attacks a black-and-white tom. A ginger tom races to the she-cat's side. Two other young cats also watch. Eventually the tabby and black-and-white cat watch the blue-gray she-cat.
*Moth Flight realizes that the cat is dying, and tells the cats that they must bury her. The cats do not react to her statement.
**The cats continue to stare at their dead friend, and Moth Flight gets angrier that they are not burying her.
*Suddenly, the blue-gray she-cat's tail twitches and she lifts her head.

======
*Dust Muzzle asks Moth Flight what she was mumbling about, and she wakes up, still thinking about her dream.
*Moth Flight suddenly asks where Slate's kits are, remembering that the she-cat had asked her to watch them. The kits had been playing in the sandy hollow when Moth Flight had closed her eyes.
*Rocky tells Moth Flight that they were near the RiverClan border. Moth Flight is angered that Rocky let them be near the gorge.
*Spotted Fur reassures Moth Flight that he will help look for the kits. Dust Muzzle does not come to help though, as he has helped his sister many times before.

*The cats hear a kit wail, and Spotted Fur claims that the kits are in trouble.
======

**They learn that Silver Stripe has fallen down a rabbit burrow.
*Willow Tail and Spotted Fur dig around the edges of the tunnel. Moth Flight goes to get Silver Stripe out.

*Moth Flight finds an interesting plant underground, and goes to dig it up.
*She comes back to the surface, but has to leave the plant behind to carry Black Ear.

*When they come to camp, Slate is relieved. Wind Runner scolds Moth Flight for being so foolish.
*Moth Flight, Gorse Fur, Dust Muzzle, and Wind Runner go hunting.

*The four begin hunting together.
**Moth Flight is unsuccessful at her attempt in catching a lapwing, though Gorse Fur reassures her that it is okay.
**Dust Muzzle goes to catch a vole that he spots, and Gorse Fur and Moth Flight decide to help Wind Runner, who crouches beside a rabbit burrow. Gorse Fur advises his daughter on how to catch a rabbit when it runs.
**While waiting, Moth Flight gets distracted and thinks of her dream from the other night with the blue-gray she-cat. Wind Runner cries her name but Moth Flight still thinks about her dream.
***Her mother yowls her name again, and Moth Flight glimpses a rabbit run past her, Wind Runner running after it.
***Moth Flight's mother calls her a birdbrain while trying to hold back a snarl. She gets told off by her mother Wind Runner after she misses the rabbit.

** She runs on the Thunderpath trying to catch the moth.

* Moth Flight realizes Gorse Fur saved her life from a monster. Wind Runner is furious at her daughter yet at the same time frightened.

** She tells Moth Flight WindClan would be better off without her.
** Gorse Fur and Dust Muzzle are shocked at Wind Runner's words.
* Moth Flight, wracked with guilt, runs away from her family and thinks Wind Runner is right. Moth Flight feels she is a danger to her Clan and doesn't deserve to be with her family.
======
* Moth Flight races across a field but stops to look behind her. She is relieved when she sees that no one has followed her.
** She starts to wonder if her family are glad that she left.
* When she realizes the sun has started to set, she wonders what to do next, as the moth is not there to show her where to go.
* Moth Flight thinks about catching a bird but then she thinks how easily her mother would catch one.
* She goes to drink from a puddle and spots a toad nearby. She wonders if it's edible.

======
* Moth Flight wakes up in a cave and sees the blue-gray she-cat, accompanied by a gray tom.
**Moth Flight follows them to a chamber of the cave with an opening through the roof.

======
* Moth Flight finishes disguising her scent, and continues traveling through unknown territory.
** She attempts to catch a mouse, but is distracted by the appearance of the moth. She tries to pursue the moth, but is diverted away by a dog.
** Micah appears and distracts the dog, long enough for Moth Flight to be ushered away by a black-and-white she-cat and a brown tom.

* Moth Flight wonders if Micah is part of her journey.
======

* Micah hunts for them, and Moth Flight eats before entering the tunnel and discovering a large stone. The moon strikes and illuminates it, and Moth Flight looks around for spirit-cats. She doesn't see any, but touches her nose to the stone.
