Leafpool watched her son, Jayfeather, sorting herbs from the enetrance to her den. No, not her den. Anymore. She had retried fro her medicine cat duties to become a warrior when the Clan found out Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf were her kits. Now Hollyleaf had died.

Leafpool felt horrible. She sighed quietly. She started to pad away when Jayfeather lifted his head. He had heard her sigh. His sightless blue eyes watched her. "You should be helping me, you know."

"How can I?" she meowed. "I'm not a medicine cat anymore."

"You still should be. You were not meant to be a warrior. Your paws were meant for the path of a medicine cat."

"Even if I was meant to be a medicine cat, I cannot anymore. I broke the warrior code."

"Some rules were meant to be broken, Leafpool. Firestar has broken almost every rule in the warrior code, but is he backing down from leadership?"

"It's different with Firestar."

"How?" Jayfeather snapped.

"Firestar broke most of those rules out of kindness."

"And is it horrible to have kits with a cat from another Clan?"

"If it is against the warrior code it is."

"No!" Jayfeather snapped again. "Think, will you! Bluestar had kits with a cat from another Clan! And one of those kits is leading RiverClan right now!"

"How did you know that?" Leafpool bristled. Sometimes she wondered is her son could walk in other cats' memories.

"Yellowfang was a medicine cat and she had kits!"

"And she was punished for that!" Leafpool remembered the gray StarClan she-cat telling her this once when she had visited the Moonpool. "Her son was horrible and almost led his Clan into disaster!"

"Spottedleaf!" Jayfeather went on, ignoring her. "She loved Firestar, once again braking the code! Don't you see? All these cats that arre breaking the code are heroes and will be remembered in elders' tales for hundereds of seasons!"

"I'm not like that!" Leafpool argued.

"Yes, you are!" Jayfeather lowered his blue, sightless eyes. "Your kits are the power three. You will be remebered as the mother of the cats more powerful than StarClan. One day, maybe even Clans will be named after you..."

Chapter 1: PoolClan
Silverstripes awoke to the sound of kits' yowling. She opened her eyes, swatting Beekit and Flowerkit off her. "What are you doing in the Warrior's Den?" she asked sleepily. It was dawn and pink skies were shining through the holes in the bracken above her.

"Sorry, Silverstripes." Flowerkit hung her head, but Beekit kept playing a bit of moss that had fallen off of an empty nest.

"Where is your mother?" Silverstripes stood up, flicking the tortiseshell kits out of the den.

"Flowerkit! Beekit!" Silverstripes watched a golden she-cat with bright green eyes come dashing over. "I've been looking all over for you!"

"They were in the Warrior's Den, Goldsky." Silverstripes told the kits' mother.
