Chapter 1-5

Chapter 1: Brambleclaw is hunting the forest for prey, and then he steps out of some bushes into a wide clearing. He sees a cat quietly sitting on a rock. He realizes it is the former Clan leader of ThunderClan, Bluestar. Bluestar addresses him, and says that he must fulfill a prophecy, along with three others on the new moon, listening to Midnight's words. Brambleclaw is left confused.

Graystripe then wakes Brambleclaw up, saying that he was so noisy whilst sleeping. Brambleclaw is awfully embarrassed, and Cloudtail rudely remarks that he yelps louder than Firestar, who is known for his loud dreams.
