Ravenpaw awoke. The sun was high in the sky, shining through the den and into his eyes. He looked around to see if Flamepaw or Winterpaw were in their nests.

They were not.

He overslept, as usual. He always did this, so no one really cared if he did.

He padded out of the den to see Hornetclaw patiently waiting for him in the clearing. When he saw Ravenpaw, he looked uneasy, like something bad was going to happen.

Ravenpaw trotted up to Hornetclaw. "Where are we going today, mentor?" He asked eagerly.

"We're going into the forest for hunting. Follow me." Hornetclaw was not the one to talk today. He was quick with his movements and moved quickly out of camp, ready to teach. Ravenpaw followed as fast as he could, taking each step carefully.

Hornetclaw stopped, sat down, and began speaking. "I brought you here not only just to hunt, but to talk." He began.

"I know that you know that everyone thinks your birth was a curse. It obviously isn't. Lionfern was killed by Foxstar, as I could tell the way Lionfern had died. Foxstar wanted to be known as trustworthy, thus he blamed it on you, since you were born then." He stopped, looking at Ravenpaw before continuing.

"When you were a kit, your mother always stood up for you whenever Foxstar tried blaming you for something. The day you were apprenticed, Foxstar took your mother into the forest, and she didn't come back. He said she fell in the river and drifted away, but I knew he'd killed her too."

Ravenpaw looked helpless. Everything he was getting told was petrifying. He never imagined to deal with this, and the prophecy too?

"And we never knew your father..." Hornetclaw seemed as if he didn't want to mention Ravenpaw's father. Was he killed the same way as his mother and Lionfern?

"Your mother's name was Shining'Flower. She was very sweet and loving. She waa very loyal and protective of her clanmates. She was the prettiest cat you could meet, her golden tabby pelt shimmering like the sun." He explained Ravenpaws mother with pute love, and added every small detail.

"Your birth was never a curse, infact, they just need someone to blame. Your very special to me, Ravenpaw, and you know that."

They both say in silence before Hornetclaw meowed, "let's go hunt."

They both went to hunt, Ravenpaw being content.
