     Blood splattered the moss underpaw of a long haired black and light brown cat.
     "Dawnwing! You are going on the morning patrol!" A sleek silver cat meowed. Dawnwing, a ginger cat with redish and white spots, opened her eyes groggily. "Ughh.. why didn't no one tell me..? I could've went to sleep earlier.." Dawnwing growled as she got up and stumbled a bit before walking to, Brackenthorn, Leapingeye, and Petalnose. "HI! Glad you decided to come." Leapingeye teased Dawnwing, "Oh put a claw in it, not like I had a choice." Dawnwing snarled. "Why so grumpy?" Petalnose asked while tilting her head.
     "Well first off I had a dusk patrol and second I couldn't fall asleep until moonhigh." Dawnwing hissed under her breath to where only a couple cats within a earshot could hear. "Oh, that's ruff" Petalnose meowed. "Are you three going to gossip all day? Or are you in the patrol?" Brackenthorn growled, "Cominggg.." Dawnwing sighed.

     They got back at sun high, and Dawnwing went straight to the freshkill hole. She chose a starling for herself and stalked all the way to Dripping Rock that was under a ledge. She held her starling under the water that dripped from the stone and then shook it and started eating.
     "Dawnwing! You're on the moonhigh patrol tonight!" The deputy, Krincklewisker yowled from across the clearing. "Okay! I'll be up!" Dawnwing growled but as loud as she could Krincklewisker could hear.

     At just before moonhigh she and the rest of her patrol padded through the underground, through the tall trees and past towering rocks such as Eaglerock, a rock that is high and has no shade around it, so eagles also come to perch there. When they reached the border she thought she caught a whiff of another cat, not from WingDynasty which is next to PetalDynasty which is what dynasty she lives in. She halted and signaled to the rest of the patrol but when they tasted the air again there was nothing. They continued then she saw crimson red eyes right outside her border. She halted again and pointed with her tail to show the rest of the patrol.
     "Those are only a red flower you know how they seem like eyes in the dark." Owllight meowed but Dawnwing could tell she wasn't completely sure, but right after it started to creep forward and the whole patrol knew Owllight was wrong. When they got in the light you could see it was a cat with black fur that had light brown spots and straps, their eyes were no doubt crimson.
     "Who are you?!" Thornbark, the oldest warrior, hissed at the sleek cat. The cat gave a bow like gesture, "my name is Lost I wish to join your dynasty." Every cat seemed shocked, "s-should we take him to Redmoon?" Lightenedcloud meowed. "Uhh- I think we should take him to the ruler, yes- he could be the one in that- you know.." Thornbark meowed under his breath, making sure only the patrol could hear. "Follow us, Lost" Thornbark spat out Lost's name like a herb that has rottened. Lost only nodded leaving Dawnwing's mind wandering into the possibilities of what this stranger could bring.
     The night guard looked very confused when he saw Lost, he obviously was looking at his crimson red eyes in surprise. As they continued to pad over to the ruler's den they kept getting the confused looks. Thornbark announced their arrival and Redmoon simply meowed in surprise "that was fast, come in!" As soon as Redmoon saw Lost his eyes shone like he had just seen all the members of MoonDynasty. "Oh my- could it be-..." he seemed at lost of words. "May I join your dynasty?" Lost simply asked. "Hm you may but will have to take on responsibilities of warrior duties and have a dynasty name, do you promise to protect your dynastymates and Dynasty with your life?" Redmoon asked his eyes obviously still looking for if Lost was the cat from the prophecy. "100%, yep, I eat enemies so yeah I will" Lost meowed obviously impatient. "You would- what- oh never mind, Owllight show this cat to the warrior den, he will get his name tomorrow." Redmoon meowed still a little shocked of what Lost had just brought up.

     The next morning Dawnwing woke up to Redmoon calling a meeting, though Lost was completely passed out and didn't wake. Dawnwing sighed and padded at Lost's shoulder trying to wake him, "huuh..? Oh.. *yawn* good morning I guess..." Lost was obviously still tired, but he still stumbled up and walked out beside Dawnwing. Lost ended up sitting in the far back side by Minnowclaw. "Morning whole of PetalDynasty, you may have noticed the newcomer here. Well they are here to stay, and I ask of you not to attack him. I had a word with Krincklewisker and Thornbark about what he had said his name was and what I should name him and then we went to ProphecyCrystal to see if he was the one. And what we found out had shocked us, he is indeed Lostcrimson, from the prophecy, One with the colors of the ragged rocks, one with eyes that had lost, one with crimson blood splashing the moss" Redmoon recalled. "From now on, Lost is known as Lostcrimson." Eveyone cheared Lostcrimson's name, but he seemed terrified.
