A moon passed since Lightningstar's sudden death. Lightpaw was now Lightheart, Shadepaw was Shadestripe, Darkpaw was Darkpelt, and Blackpaw was Blackfoot. Nightstar had changed all of ThunderClan. The warriors hated the three dark warriors, and everyone hated the new ThunderClan.

Back at RiverClan, Creekstar had seen the new ThunderClan. They always looked glum and upset during Gatherings. Whitefoot was unable to attend the Gatherings because ThunderClan might suspect. "Whitefoot," Riverstar mewed. "You must leave RiverClan. You must stop the new dark leader." "Why me?" Whitefoot asked. "Because," Riverstar mewed. "You can't go on living this way! Hiding from your home. Don't you miss your friend?!" Whitefoot thought for a moment then muttered darkly, "You're right. I can't live like this. It's dishonorable to StarClan." "And that's why you must go," Riverstar said. Whitefoot nodded sternly and turned to go.

"Wait," a voice called. Whitefoot turned to see Ivyleaf, formerly Ivypaw. Beecheotl was dead, and she was RiverClan's new medicine cat. Ivyleaf touched noses with Whitefoot and whispered, "May StarClan light your path." Then she backed away. Whitefoot nodded and turned to start running. He heard the RiverClan warriors yowling to keep moving. Whitefoot then jumped into the river and swum across. It was time to take care of what should've been done a long time ago.
