## THE PROPHECY

(This is the best way I could figure out to rhyme everything, it took me a long time to make this up!)

(There is a fanon tribe in this!)

One is Born to Burn,

One is Born to Flood,

One is Born for Ice,

One is Born for Mud.

One is Born to Swim,

One is Born to Fly,

One is Born to Live,

One is Born to Die.

Each of the eight,

Shall choose a Tribe,

And Lead their cats,

To their Newfound Lives.

The eighth Tribe,

The Tribe of Death,

Shall try,

To take over the Rest.

The first Seven,

Will fight Against them,

And yet,

The Future is Unclear...

## Prologue

Falcon and Nightlight were relaxing on the beach. Together.

*I wish it was like this forever.*

"Hey Falcon!" Nightlight interrupted the train of thought. "Do you want to fly together?"

"Why not! Let's go!" Falcon took off into the air before she could respond. She raced after him, but since he was three-quarters SkyWing, she couldn't catch up.

Falcon and Nightlight grew up together and had developed a crush on each other. Many, MANY years had passed since the death of Moonwatcher and Qibli, and Nightlight was one of Moon's distant relatives. Falcon was from the SkyWing tribe, but his grandmother was SeaWing. Pyrrhia had become much more peaceful and all the tribes were allowed to have dragonets together, though there was very few AllWings so far. Nightlight was almost completely NightWing, but he was pretty sure she had a tiny bit of RainWing blood, because of her very sharp front teeth that were almost fangs.

They chased each other through the sky. A friendly Sand-IceWing flew past and waved.

"Hi! His name is Falcon!" Nightlight called. She was born under two full moons, and she had powers just like many of NightWing dragonets now.

"Is he your boyfriend?" the Sand-IceWing called.

"Not exactly... But hopefully when we are older!" she called back.

"Nice to meet you! Bye!" The dragon swooped off.

Falcon and Nightlight flew above the waves, looking dreamily into each other's eyes.

Then Nightlight suddenly dropped out of the sky! Falcon reacted quickly, diving down and grabbing her.

She began to recite something, a prophecy it seemed.

"One is Born to Burn,"

"One is Born to Flood,"

"One is Born for Ice,"

"One is Born for Mud."

"One is Born to Swim,"

"One is Born to Fly,"

"One is Born to Live,"

"One is Born to Die."

"
Each of the eight,"

"Shall choose a Tribe,"

"And Lead their cats,"

"To their Newfound Lives."

"The eighth Tribe,"

"The Tribe of Death,"

"Shall try,"

"To take over the Rest."

"
The first Seven,"

"Will fight Against them,"

"And yet,"

"The Future is Unclear..."

She seemed to wake from a trance. Falcon wondered if he had actually just heard what he had though he had.

"Whoa. Prophecy!" she started flying again, and they both landed.

"I wonder..." Falcon murmured, "The eighth Tribe, The Tribe of Death... What could that mean?"

"Prophecies are mysterious." Nightlight agreed. "And... What is a cat?"

Falcon just shook his head. "I wonder what will happen. Let's go tell Stargazer."

## Chapter 1

*Twolegs. It is always twolegs.*

The whole of ThunderClan was running away. Away from their *own* camp.

Twolegs had invaded once more, just like they had in the time of Firestar at the long lost Forest.

That story was passed down so many generations!

And now the twolegs decided that they have to take the Lake, too.

All the Clans have been having problems.

Twoleg machines more advanced than in the Forest came and were destroying the camp.

"Run!" Sapphireshine's best friend, Oakleaf, cried.

Sapphireshine picked up a kit named Dawnkit and ran out of camp.

"Where are we going?" squeaked Dawnkit, looking up at her.

"To the lake. The Clan will meet there and we will continue on go on somewhere after that."

Dawnkit squeaked again and closed her eyes.

Sapphireshine looked down at the poor kit. She knew Oakleaf had taken her littermate, Rabbitkit.

She spotted the lake up ahead. *Finally!*

Her mother had died in one of these monster attacks. She hoped her father and all her other relatives wouldn't follow the same path.

*Mother was beautiful. Are you in StarClan right now, watching over me, Opalspirit?*

Sapphireshine reached the Lake. "Oakleaf! You're safe!" she cried when she saw her.

"Yes, I am!" Oakleaf put down Rabbitkit and he scurried toward Dawnkit.

Sapphireshine looked towards where their camp used to be. *Where is everyone? Are we... the only ones who survived?*

Then she saw three cats running towards them. "That is Thawstar, Gleampool, and Featherdusk! We aren't alone."

"That is good." Oakleaf said.

Thawstar approached them. "Is anyone else with you?"

"No. We have Dawnkit and Rabbitkit though."

"Lilactail is helping Quailnose and Jumpmoon. Jumpmoon has a broken leg, and Quailnose's paw was trapped under a tree." Gleampool reported.

"What about the others?" Oakleaf asked.

"Yellowtail is dead." Thawstar told them sadly. "I'm going to go see if there are any cats still trapped in the camp."

Sapphireshine dipped her head. "Should I come with you?"

"Very well, let's go." Thawstar dipped his head and took off.

Sapphireshine followed him. They passed Lilactail and the two hurt warriors. "Come on," Lilactail urged on Jumpmoon. "We are almost at the Lake."

*Wow. Will we still have enough cats to maintain the Clan?*

## Trivia

This whole book was kind-of inspired by one quote in Whatever It Takes (A song by Imagine Dragons): "I was born to burn, I was born for this."

The quote is actually "I was born to **run**, I was born for this." but the first time I heard it I heard it incorrectly.
