Ravenfeather's Gift

==&nbsp Prologue== The moonlight glittered in the pool in the middle of the clearing.

A blue-gray she-cat was looking down at the pool. A tortioseshell tom at her side.

"Do you think they are ready, Bluestar?" questioned the tom.

The she-cat sighed but responded.

"Yes, Ripplepaw, Goldenflower and Ravenfeather are ready. They both show promise." answered Bluestar, uneasily.

She wasn't sure Goldenflower had choosen the right mate from the start. It wasn't easy for her to say they were ready for kits.

Ripplepaw nodded. He agreed to the she-cat's answer.

The young tom looked down at the pool as well. The image of a tortioseshell she-cat and black-pelted tom appeared.

Ripplepaw stiffned. A brown tabby tom raced through his mind.

"Hawkstar." he whispered.

Ripplepaw looked at Bluestar. His golden eyes filled with worry and his ear tips twiched with destress.

"He was an evil cat, Bluestar, and he is after a cat to rule the forst for him."

Bluestar gasped in disbelief.

Her star-covered pelt bristled.

"Where do you think he will get this cat from?" muttered Bluestar.

"ThunderClan." meowed Ripplepaw.

"He is gaining his revenge on the she-cat that took his last life. He will visit the dreams of one of,"

Ripplepaw gulped.

"Goldenflower's kits."
