CHAPTER 1
Brambleclaw stood in the middle ofthe clearing, gazing at what was left of the ThunderClan camp. A crescent moon, thin as a claw, drifted above the trees that surrounded the stone hollow. Its pale light revealed the dens3 trampled5 down, the thorn barrier at the camp entrance broken and tossed aside, and the wounded cats of ThunderClan slowly creeping from the shadows, their fur bristling6 and their eyes stretched wide with shock. Brambleclaw could still hear the trampling7 of the badgers8 as they lumbered10 away. The undergrowth beyond the entrance quivered where they had pushed through, driven off with the help of Onestar and the WindClan warriors12 who had come just in time to help ThunderClan.
But it wasn’t the sight of devastation13 that pricked14 Brambleclaw’s pelt15 and kept his paws frozen to the ground. Two cats he had never thought he’d see again were picking their way carefully among the scattered17 thorns of the entrance barrier. They were uninjured, their pelts18 sleek19 and their eyes alight with alarm.
“Stormfur! What are you doing here?” Brambleclaw called.
