"Lilly, where did you go?" Rin called out. No reply came. Panick started to flood through Rin. "Lilly!" Rin hissed. "Please, where are you, Snowdrop wants you!" Rin said.

"Okay, then I got to go see Snowdrop." Lilly laughed, jumping down from the tree. She walks right past Rin.

The leaves crackle under her paws, foot prints are left behind on the leaves. Lilly walked down the slope, and into a cave. There, is Snowdrop. She is sitting. Her face calm.

"Rin said you wanted to see me." Lilly said.

"Yes. I heard that you are expecting kits, is this true?" Snowdrop asked. Her voice is sweet, and calm.

"Yes. I have been expeting them for over two moons, they should come any time now." Lilly said slowly. "How could I have forgotten to tell her?" Lilly thinks slowly.

"Well then you have to go to the Queen Den. Okay?" Snowdrop said.

"But-" Lilly got cut off by Snowdrop.
"No! You don't understand! It is the best for your kits, if you want them to be healthy and happy, you need to have them born where they are supposed to! Not out in the cold." Snowdrop cried.

"Yes." Lilly diped her head. She turned around to leave.

"Wait, Lilly." Snowdrop said.

"Yeah?" Lilly replied.

" I should of told you long ago, but, I know who your parents are." Snowdrop meowed.

Lilly turned around and sat down.

"Your father is Kink." Snowdrop began.

"You mean Kink, the one who died, that was from FlameTribe?" Lilly asked. Snowdrop nodded.

"I am your mother." Snowdrop whispered.

"Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell anyone? Why are you telling me now?" Lilly asked.

"If I was to tell anyone, I wouldn't be able to be leader. I wouldn't be remebered as a great cat, I would be remembered as a cat who disobayed the code." Snowdrop replied.

" Why didn't you tell me?" Lilly asked.

"You were never supposed to know." Snowdrop replied.

"What do you mean?" Lilly asked.

"I receaved a sighn from Kink. He died before I had any kits. He told me a message from LifeTribe. He said that I was never supposed to have kits, and if I told anyone, I would got to the DeathTribe." Snowflake mewed sadly.

"I understand, then why are you telling me though, and why are you telling me know?" Lilly asked.

"Lilly, you had a right to know who your parents were. I am the only cat that could tell you, even if it meant my doom. Lilly, you are a special cat. I am going to die, after I finish talking to you. I am telling you know, because you ae going to have your kits today." Snowdrop meowed.

"How do you know, why is that important?" Lilly asked. "You can't die! No! You can't leave me!"

"I have no chose. Lilly I am telling you this now because, those kits you are having today..." Snowdrop started.

"Go on." Lilly cried.

" They are special. They will be born to guide the tribe. They might even be more powerful than that.
Snowflakes will fall in summer. Raindrops with fall in the desert. Wind will blow through the water."

"What??" Lilly cried.

"Remeber this well, Lilly. I love you. Tell the tribe what I have done. I love you. Live life." Snowdrops last words were the stern. "You are the new tribe leader."

"NO!" Lilly screamed.

Cats poured in the den. Lilly stuck her nose into her mothers fur. "What happened?" Sun asked.

Lilly ran outside and jumped onto the top of the cave.

"All cats, gather around." Lilly yowled.

All the cats of Rivertribe came.

"Who made you leader?" Ripple asked.

"Snowdrop did." Lilly snarled.

"Snowdrop wanted me to tell you all before she died. She is my mother, and my father is Kink, of FlameTribe. Snowdrop was never supposed to have kits, so if she was to tell me, she would die afterwards, and she would be sent to DeathTribe. She told me today, because today I am going to have my kits. She told me that I am leader. So I am. I will do my best as leader." Lilly said.

She jumped down onto the ground. "Rin, Sun, Ripple, I need to speek with you." Lilly said. She turned around and walked over to the side of the clearing.

Ripple hates her, Rin is her mate, and Sun is Snowdrops brother.

"What now??" Ripple hissed. Sun glared at him. Ripple went quiet.

" I trust you all. So I will trust you all with something Snowdrop told me. First though, do all of you promise me that you will tell no one?" Lilly asked.

"You have my word." Sun said.

"You have my word, too." Rin said.

"You have my word. Before you start though, why do you trust me?" Ripple asked.

"Sometimes, it is those who hate you, that are really trustworthy." Lilly said.

"Snowdrop told me everything today because, she knows I am having my kits today. She told me she was my mother, because she believes I had a right to know who my parents are." Lilly said.

"She told me that, my kits were to guide our tribe. That they might be more powerful than that. She said
Snowflakes will fall in summer. Raindrops with fall in the desert. Wind will blow through the water." Lilly said.

"As my kits grow up, I want all three of you to watch them, and watch them carfully. Don't ever let them know about the prophecy. Ok?" Lilly asked.

"Ok." They all said at once.

Lilly started to walk away, then she let out a yowl of pain, and she fell to the ground. Cats rushed to her.

"Whats happening?" Lilly gasped.

"Your are having your kita." Ripple said. Ripple is the tribe healer. He ran off, then came back with herbs.

Lilly blanked out, all was black for several minutes.

Lilly opened her eyes. Their were three kits at her side. One white, one grayish blue, one gray. Rin, Sun, and Ripple stood next to her.

"The white one is Snowflake, the grayish blue one is Raindrop, the gray one is Wind." Lilly whispered. Sun, Ripple, and Rin nodded.

"The phrophecy begins." Someone said.
