Chapter 18:
A Prophecy Of Night And Sun
"Dad... I-" Autumnpaw stammered, before Nightfall cut her off,
"ARE YOU A FREAKING IDIOT?!" He snarled at her, before Dawnpaw joined the conversation,
"I-it was my f-fa-fault... I-I-I s-suggested this..." She said quietly,
Nightfall: "WELL YOU DIDN-"
Autumnpaw: "I received a prophecy..."
Nightfall stayed silent, "Wha-"
"The Tide will rest on the ocean bed, the gold will rule over the clan, and then the night will rise to be leader and the sun will rise to be third, the shadows from the caves will deceive the night, and the sun will stop shining, only the autumn can save the clan from the shadows of the caves, the autumn is TideClan's only hope, now. Their fate rests in her paws."
Nightfall stayed quiet, his eyes widen, and then he stared wistfully into the distance, as if thinking of something deeply, a silent tear rolled down his face,
"Dad...? A-are you... o-ok-okay?" Autumnpaw and Dawnpaw asked, worried, Nightfall didn't answer and just got up quietly and started heading back to camp, Autumnpaw and Dawnpaw followed, Nightfall was quiet for the rest of the trip. After they got back to camp, Nightfall excused the apprentices to the apprentice den and told Sunset that they needed to talk about something, Sunset nodded, and they both left camp. Autumnpaw and Dawnpaw silently followed,
"Night, what did you want to talk to me about?" Sunset asked,
"Autumnpaw... got a- a prophecy..." Nightfall said quietly,
"WHAT." Sunset stopped walking, shortly after Nightfall also stopped,
"Yes," he took a deep breath, before saying, "The Tide will rest on the ocean bed, the gold will rule over the clan, and then the night will rise to be leader and the sun will rise to be third, the shadows from the caves will deceive the night, and the sun will stop shining, only the autumn can save the clan from the shadows of the caves, the autumn is TideClan's only hope, now. Their fate rests in her paws."
"Wait a sec...-" Sunset paused,
"Night... Sun... Tide... Gold- wait... Autumn, Autumnpaw, Nightfall, Tide...Star... GOLDENSTAR, SUN- ME...!" Sunset said,
"Did you just crack a riddle without even being a medicine cat?" Nightfall asked,
"Yes, probably..." Sunset said,
'But... Is this... meant to be true...?'
