Above is MorningGlory.

     DoveSpirit woke up, blinking to get the sleep out of her eyes. She stretched out and left her hind paw touch something. She looked up to see MorningGlory waiting for her, "Rise and shine DoveSpirit, hunting patrol!"
     DoveSpirit grumbled under her breath , "I'm working on it, geez. Can't you give a cat a couple of seconds?"
     "Seconds fills no bellies!" She chanted the chant she always chanted when she was MorningGlory's apprentice. DoveSpirit got up and did a quick run over of her pelt then padded out into the clearing. "There she is! The grump of the day!"
     DoveSpirit flicked her tail over her former mentor's ears. "Why do you have to tease me? I'm not a morning glory like you. Should I tease you, about your name!"
     "No! You know I hate that!" Exclaimed MorningGlory.
     "Don't do it to me then" smirked DoveSpirit. Although MorningGlory was her mentor, they were best friends. They did everything together, except for maybe when they made dirt.

...

They headed into the forest, which was covered with water drops. The dew on the leaves and plants made DoveSpirit's paws and legs all wet. She opened her mouth to scent the smells of the forest. Water, leaves, the WindClan border, and... fox! "Um, guys. I can scent some fox." She could tell that the others had already scented it by the way their fur was standing on end.
     "I suggest that we ignore it for now and finish hunting. Then when we go back, we can report to BlueStar." Suggested FernFlower. The other cats nodded in agreement and they finished hunting.

...

     When they returned to camp, DoveSpirit padded to the leaders den to report the fox. "May I come in?" She said as she stood in front of the Leaders den.
     "Come in!" BlueStar called out warily. DoveSpirit padded into the den, only to see CherryThroat in the den as well. " Ah, DoveSpirit. It's you, what do you need?" BlueStar asked curiously.
     "Well, we smelt some foxes on the border. We didn't see them, but we could smell them. I came to report to you." DoveSpirit dipped her head as she spoke of the foxes.
     "Thank you for telling me, I will alert the clan. Oh, and I have something to tell you."  BlueStar was waving his tail as he continued, "We think you are in a prophecy!"
