Prologue
The sky was as dark as a crow’s plumage and the moon was nowhere to be seen. Two pelts lurked in the shadows as the mist swirled in the air.
“What are we doing here?” A brown she-cat known as ‘Hazelpool’ meowed with a tinge of annoyance in her voice.
“We’re going to destroy the clans once and for all.” The tom cat, known as Twistedpelt, his fur patterned a red-ish tabby colour, his paws were pitch-black and his tail was white tipped in orange hissed in dark revenge.
“How in the world are we going to do that?” Hazelpool snapped angrily.
“With magic, of course…” Twistedpelt meowed sinisterly, he continued. “I’ve been watching a she-cat that knows the way of what she calls ‘Thaumaturgy’; and I’ve learnt, from observation, how to make this.”
Twistedpelt held up a bottle with a strange purple liquid inside.
“What in the world is that?” Hazelpool spat in revulsion.
“It’s known to the she-cat as ‘Flux’; and it seems to have interesting effects on living things when compiled together,” Twistedpelt explained, swishing around the bottle (WHICH IS REALLY A BAD IDEA!! D:), “If we release this ‘Flux’ into the clans, it could bring their existence to an end.”
Twistedpelt let out an evil chuckle as Hazelpool smiled awkwardly, both walking away into the distance to plan out the...well...plan.

Chapter 1 - Prophecy part 1
Dovefur crouched, stalking the crow a few tail-lengths away. Once a ShadowClan cat, she was exiled for having “bees in her brain”. She pounced, pressing her paw onto the crow’s chest as she imagined the crow’s terrified squawks as Brokenstar’s distressed mewls. Lowering her open jaw onto the crows throat, she shut her jaw tight around the crow’s neck, killing it in one swift blow. She pranced off to her den in delight at her catch, dropping it with the rest of her prey.
“A crow, a squirrel and a vole...” she sighed, looking at the pile of fresh-kill, “That should last me a few days, at least.”
Dovefur looked outside her den, seeing the sun settle behind the trees. She looked at the golden ring on her black paw, which allowed her to grow feathery wings on her back and fly. I’ll be the leader of my own clan some day, she thought, walking over to her nest and closed her eyes, I’ll show ShadowClan what big of a mistake they made.
Dovefur shivered. It was suddenly cold. She woke up, finding herself on the cold, hard ground, under the moonlight. She sat up, staring at the full moon as she wondered if the clans were having their gathering already, or if the clans even existed anymore. She padded at the ground, waiting for something to happen…
“Dovefur...”
Dovefur turned, looking to see a shimmering, light gray she-cat, her paws and tail as white as snow.
“Who are you?” Dovefur asked.
“My name is Fernstar, previous leader of ThunderClan. The current leader is Sandstar,” the gray cat said, sitting down next to Dovefur.
“Where’s Brokenstar?” Dovefur asked, unsheathing her claws.
“He’s gone,” Fernstar said, sighing, “Gone from both the forests.”
“NO!” Dovefur shouted, stamping the ground with her pawprint as she sheathed her claws.
“Don’t be angry,” Fernstar said, “at least he’s dead.”
“So why are you here?” Dovefur asked.
“Oh, just prophecy delivery services,” Fernstar said, letting out a small chuckle.
“What’s the prophecy?” Dovefur meowed, “And does it include me?”
“Two pelts of gray and white shall guide the clans towards the light and yes,” Fernstar said, fading away, “Gotta go now, bye!”
Dovefur opened her eyes, blinking as she stared at the roof of the den. “Well that was interesting.”
Dovefur sat up, reaching for her golden ring as she stood up, prancing towards her “table” as her wings materialised on her back, opening the large book resting on the table as she got a pair of scribing tools and paper ready to jot down notes as she looked for things to research.
Of course, this all ended abruptly as she heard a gasp sound from the entrance of her den, slamming the book closed as she cringed at the cat that started circling her.

Chapter 2 - Prophecy part 2
Wing flew into the clouds and dived back down. She was once a clan cat, born in Windclan and gifted with wings of flight. Cats saw this as a dishonour to StarClan and was left abandoned outside the clans and was left to die alone. But little did she know she was part of an important prophecy which would save the clans from ultimate destruction. The prophecy’s powers have protected her ever since she was a small vulnerable kit.
Her light gray coat shimmered gently in the sun’s presence. Her wings elegantly lifted her off of the ground and into the air. The sky was turning to a soft pinkish-purple and the sun was steadily travelling to the sun-drown place. Dusk was approaching. She swiftly flew above the trees until she sighted a small cave she could stay for the night.
Wing made herself comfortable as she yawned with exhaustion. She lowered her head and let the darkness consume her.
That night, Wing dreamed …
Wing had caught sight of a rabbit and started stalking her prey silently.
“Wing…” A faint voice echoed through the forest. Wing stood up, curious. Her sudden actions had scared away the prey.
“Mouse-dung!” Wing spat, irritated.
“Wing…” The voice came again. Wing crept quietly towards the clearing, where another cat was standing.
“Wing, Wing…” The strange cat spoke with an echo-ey voice.
“I speak of a prophecy of much importance…” The cat began.
“Two pelts of gray and white shall guide the clans towards the light.”
“What in Starclan does that mean?!?” Wing meowed frustratedly.
The mysterious cat slowly faded away as Wing became conscious to reality.
The gray she-cat sat up and rubbed her eyes with her paws. She stretched and yawned, still feeling sleepy.
“Two pelts of gray and white shall guide the clans toward the light…” Wing murmured to herself. She thought for a little while until she gave up and soared outside, inhaling the fresh scent of dawn and started practicing her flying skills.
After a few minutes of flying, Wing had found another den. Drawn in by curiosity, she hesitantly flew towards the mouth of the den.
To her surprise, she stared, eye to eye at a white she-cat with a pitch black paw whom had wings just like herself.

Chapter 3 - Collision part 1
As the cat circled around Dovefur, she grit her teeth at the disruption in her research.
“Who are you?!?” they both meowed, almost in unison.
“I’m Wing, what’s your name?” the cat asked.
“Not a clan cat?” Dovefur meowed angrily, scratching at the ground.
“Your name is Not-a-clan-cat? That’s a strange name!” “Wing” replied with a purr of amusement.
“I’m - what - no - I’m not telling you my name until you tell me if you’re a clan cat!” Dovefur let out an aggravated hiss, looking away.
“I was a clan cat when I was a kit, but my clan abandoned me because of my wings. I have absolutely no idea how I’m still alive!” “Wing” replied.
“But I’m sure you heard about the kit tales about the cat with bees in her brains?” Dovefur asked, sighing.
“Yes, I’ve heard of it...” Dovefur stared as “Wing” looked around, seeing her eyes go wide as she exclaimed, “You’re the cat from the tale!!”
Dovefur grabbed “Wing” by the scruff before she could fly off, dragging her back into the den.
“Owwww...” “Wing” winced as Dovefur let go.
“What do you want?” Wing asked hurriedly, Dovefur seeing the urgency in her eyes as she trembled, “Whatever you do, please dont hurt me!”
