By now all of the cats in the clan except Skykit and Blazingkit have heard of the prophecy.

No one in Particular's POV

Rosestar padded out of her den, head high and tail raising in authority. She leaped into the Highrock and called for a clan meeting.

" All cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the Highrock for a clan meeting. "

Feathertail and Blosspaw settled down by each other near the edge of the clearing, whispering. Jaylight padded to the clearing, Blazingkit at her heels. Nightgaze sat in the middle of the clearing while Bluewhisker and Wolfnose settled on the edge. Dapplestream took his spot beneath the Highrock. Windgorse shuffled a few steps from her den. Skykit yawned and watched from the entrance of the nursery.

Windgorse stared at Blazingkit with so much interest and terror that she looked as if she were about to eat her. She sniffed a couple times, taking in her scent.

Blazingkit didn't notice, her eyes glued to Rosestar with pure interest and curiosity.

Nightgaze noticed the look and bared her teeth " Stop looking at her like that!" Nightgaze narrowed her eyes in a glare. " She's just a kit!"

Windgorse returned the glare so cold it seemed as if fire would freeze under it. " Starclan are no liars! You can't protect her from the truth, Nightgaze, just you wait." She hissed so quietly that only Dapplestream and Nightgaze could hear.

Jaylight had sat a fox-length from the nursery and curled her tail around Blazingkit.

Rosestar silenced them with a stare " Now I'm pleased to announce that Windgorse has passed her test and will be traveling to the Moonstone soon. "

Windgorse kneaded the ground, obviously proud of herself.

" I will try Fleabag." Nightgaze snarled quietly.

" That is all for now." Rosestar waved her tail calling Dapplestream over and padded into her den.

" She's just a kit, leave her be!" Nightgaze growled at Windgorse. She padded over to Blazingkit and wrapped her tail protectively around her.

" Her destiny leads to Dangerous things, Nightdung. " Windgorse lashed her tail and padded towards Rosestar's den. Dapplestream was beckoning her over. When she reached the den he padded into the clearing.

" Okay I need Wolfnose and Feathertail on a hunting patrol. Bluewhisker and I will go on a border patrol. " Dapplestream nodded then looked down " That leaves 3 warriors in camp and 2 kits. "

Jaylight's POV

The patrols moved out quickly. Leaving Nightgaze and Jaylight with Blazingkit squished between them. " Please let go of my daughter. " it was as quiet as a whisper but firm. She pulled her daughter up to her chest and licked her head.

Blazingkit struggled to escape " I'm not a kit anymore!"

Nightgaze I'm her mother, let me do my duty. Leave us alone! You're going to frighten her...

" Okay I'll leave her to die. You can't protect her alone. " Nightgaze snapped and turned, stalking away.

Blazingkit froze, fear in her eyes. " D-die?"

Nightgaze sat down by a tree and curled up, still being able to listen.

Jaylight glared at Nightgaze, hatred flaring up. She looked down at her kit with reassurance " It's okay... No one will die. " Jaylight licked her kits head, not sure of how comforting her words were. They didn't help her so why should they help her kit?

Because she's young and your her mother. Surely I have influence over her?

" All I wanted to do was protect Blazingkit! And yet her mother thinks that she's so perfect that everything will be fine as long as we tell her that. " Nightgaze muttered bitterly. Her ears flattened in hurt.

Well it's not your kit who's supposedly evil and going to destroy the forest now is it? Jaylight thought right back. You deal with this. I don't even know you that well....

It was true, Jaylight had come to this clan, from another clan, when Blazingkit was 3 moons old. She'd only been here for 2 almost 3 moons now.

My kit has to either be the most Unlucky kit ever... Or the most cursed.

Windgorse trotted out of Rosestar's den and across the clearing, on her way to speak with Starclan.

On her way to speak with the cats who cursed my kit.....
