The cool, night breeze blew silently through the air. Thick fog clouded the air, making the ground impossible to see. In the midst of this, a small she-cat stood.  She had pretty light grey fur, with darker grey flecks, a white chest and sapphire blue eyes. But what was weird about this? Everything: a pretty she-cat, sitting in the mist, near the border of a rival clan. Suddenly, she heard a rustling in the bushes. Swiftly, the she-cat dived under for cover, shivering. "Dawnsong?" a cat called in a gentle voice.

The little she-cat poked her head out, and then she padded out into the clearing. She dipped her head. "Yes, it is me," she replied, rushing over to the tom. He purred, and she rubbed her head against his shoulder. "How are you, Noblespirit?" "I'm fine. The Clan are doing well, but you will find out at the gathering tomorrow," Noblespirit replied, his voice quieter than usual.

Dawnsong flicked her tail towards her Clan's territory. "ReedClan attacked us, demanding territory. We won, but Bramblestar got a pretty bad wound on his shoulder." she explained. "Did anyone die?" Noblespirit asked, narrowing his eyes suspiciously.

Dawnsong shook her head. "The elders were actually helping for once," she stammered. "Poppyfoot's kits nearly died."

Noblespirit nodded, and then he stared across towards the forest. "I often hear members of your Clan coming out at night, discussing things. I reckon it's an attack, but we can't be sure. Does anyone know about us?"

Dawnsong shook her head reassuringly. "No one knows." "Good," The tom brushed his golden fur against the she-cat's grey pelt. "When will you have your kits?"

Dawnsong licked Noblespirit's ear and purred. "Soon, but I'm not a queen yet." She then leaned over and touched her muzzle to his face. "I love you." "I love you too, Dawnsong." Noblespirit purred. He then heard a rustling in the bushes, and he pushed his love into a thistle bush. "Wait here," He scented the air, but then he realised which Clan it was. "ForestClan. You'd better talk, I'll hide." he said to his mate, crawling into the bush.

Dawnsong padded out and over the border, bumping into a patrol. "There you are! I got lost!" she explained quickly. One of the cats, a tall dark brown tom with yellow eyes, stared at her. "Where have you been? Bramblestar sent a search party all over the forest. And your friends been worried sick." he asked suspiciously.

Dawnsong turned her head around to face the tom. "I'm not a kit, Otterswim. Simply, I scented some CourageClan warriors on the wrong side of the border, so I chased them back." she retorted.

Otterswim mumbled something, but a yellow and white she-cat rested her head on Dawnsong's shoulder. "I know that you have strong connections with CourageClan, but it would be best to put the past behind you." What the she-cat had said was true. Dawnsong was half CourageClan and half ForestClan. Her mother had been Treasureheart, one of the senior warriors, and her father was Longstripe, who was now a elder. Torn between love to her kits and loyalty to her clan, Treasureheart had been forced to send her kits away to their father's clan, ForestClan. The two kits became apprentices, but one of them felt that he didn't belong. So he returned to CourageClan and continued training there. Now he was Crowpelt, instead of Crowpaw or Crowkit. Dawnsong missed him dearly, but Bramblestar had told her to not visit him, as it would bring back bad memories of her early life. The only time Dawnsong saw Crowpelt was at gatherings. Dawnsong had met Noblespirit at a gathering as an apprentice, as he was her brother's mentor. They were in love, and as soon as Dawnsong gained her warrior name, they became mates. But no one knew this, of course. "Come along then, Dawnsong," the she-cat replied, flicking her tail towards a small dip in the ground. "We'd better leave this place now, as none of us belong here."

The patrol led Dawnsong back, but when she glanced around her shoulder, she saw Noblesprit's eyes in the bushes, green and full of emotion.

"Right. Attack me."

Echopath was spending yet another day teaching her sister's kits apprentice training. She had been asked by Bramblestar to teach Chickenpaw and Featherpaw some battle moves, as their mentors had been very busy recently. The advantage was that Echopath got out of patrols, but she had
