Duskrose's paws slapped the muddy earth. It was raining since they came out of Hollystar's den. Hollystar's words echoed in Duskrose's mind. 

"If StarClan tells us there is danger coming, we will move."  Hollystar had murmured. Her new deputy, Shimmerpool, had shaken her head disbelievingly. There were gasps around the camp.

It was the night for the Gathering. The echoes of the last gathering flashed through her head. She shook her head, shaking it out of her mind. She suddenly felt power surging through her. She suddenly activated something in her mind - a power?

"Duskrose! You're invisible!" A screech sounded beside her ear. Duskrose jolted. Cricketpaw and Dawnstar were standing beside her, Cricketpaw's mouth open. 

"What?" Duskrose hissed, turning off her powers. "You didn't have to howl in my ear like that!"

"Duskrose, are you alright?" Dawnstar asked, worry clouding her gaze. "You suddenly turned invisible!"

"I-" Duskrose started blankly. "I think it's related to the prophecy."

Otterdawn gasped as she ran over. "The prophecy?"

"Yes," Duskrose sighed. She faced the three cats, and meowed, "I felt power surging through me, and I grasped the power... and then you yowled at me. I think... We have powers."

"Really?" Crickepaw gaped. "That means... my powers weren't fake!"

"What power?" Dawnstar asked. 

"When I was alone in the forest, a fox lunged out at me, and I held up my paws... and then bolts of lightning shot out through my paws! It burned the fox!" Cricketpaw stammered. 

"Show us!" Otterdawn prompted. Cricketpaw quickly looked around to see if any cat was watching, and then she aimed her paws at the tip of the tree. ZAP! A bolt of lightning shot from her paws, burning the tree tip.

The three cats stared.

"Well, Otterdawn, what powers do you have?" Dawnstar asked. 

"I-I think I have powers." Otterdawn looked at her paws. 

"Show us!" Duskrose meowed. 

Otterdawn looked at Duskrose. "Can I make you fly?"

"Sure, as long you don't throw me to the Silverpelt or smash me onto the ground." Duskrose mewed, eager to fly.

Otterdawn closed her eyes and opened her eyes, looking straight at Duskrose. What was strange was her purple eyes - they were glowing! Duskrose looked at her paws and saw that they were enveloped in a glowing purple aura. 

Suddenly, Duskrose's paws flew off the ground. "I'm flying!" Duskrose shrieked. Duskrose's paws landed back on the ground, and the aura disappeared. Otterdawn's eyes were back to normal, too. 

"And that's my power. I can move things with my mind." Otterdawn explained.

Suddenly moonlight poured onto the cats. Dawnstar jumped up. "Welp - I have to go take my place at the leader's branch now!" Then she looked back. "I will explain your powers."

"Let the Gathering begin!" Owlstar's voice boomed around the clearing. The three cats hurried back to the clearing. 

"I think Dawnstar has something to say!" Hollystar announced. 

Dawnstar stepped up and dipped her head to Hollystar. "Thank you." Then she turned her head to the gathered cats. "DawnClan has news!" Dawnstar announced. "StarClan has given us a prophecy!"

Murmurs began to sprout among the clearing.

"A prophecy? How?" 

"StarClan?"

"Is this a joke?"

Dawnstar continued, "I understand that many of you are agitated with this, but we have to explain it."

"What's the prophecy?" A cat demanded.

"Twolegs come and predators too, wreck the forest to its roots. To three cats the dawn shall rise, the other cats shall dozen some tries. Agree or disagree the cats will choose, the stars will follow in a sky of hues."

Cats began to murmur again.

Dawnstar raised her voice. "We have found out who are the cats that are special: Otterdawn, Duskrose, and Cricketpaw. They all have powers to help us on the journey to a new home." Then Dawnstar gestured to the cats.

Duskrose, Otterdawn, and Cricketpaw stood up, solemn. Cats looked at them.

"What powers?" Specklestar asked, looking curious. 

"Show them." Dawnstar meowed.

Duskrose mewed, "I have invisibility. I can disappear from someone's view." 

Cricketpaw meowed, "I can shoot lightning from my paws."

Otterdawn announced, "I can move things with my mind."

Laughter sounded across the clearing. 

"Shoot lightning? Ha!"

"Move things with your mind? You're ridiculous!"

"Turning invisible?!"

Cricketpaw couldn't take it anymore. She raised her paw, and lightning flashed from her paws, straight into the sky. 

The clearing was suddenly silent, staring at Cricketpaw. Cricketpaw pointed her paw at a bare tree, zapping it, setting it on fire.

"A fire! Set it out, now!" Dawnstar yowled. 

Otterdawn nodded, and her eyes glowed. Cats around her looked in amazement as a purple aura surrounded a grey cloud above. The cloud suddenly was being squeezed, and rain fell on top of the burning tree. 

The fire was gone.

A roar sounded from behind the tree. A fox leaped out, furious that someone tried to burn its home. The cats gasped, too surprised to fight.

Duskrose grasped her power, and she turned invisible. Cats around her gasped as she zipped through the cats, slamming the fox with her paws. The cats watched as the fox in front of them was beaten up by an invisible cat. Then the fox whined and zipped out of the clearing. Duskrose let go of the power and then she became visible again. 

The cats looked at the three cats uncertainly. 

"Very well... Even though I thought that we shouldn't move, we will move now. " Specklestar announced. 

Dawnstar added, "we will leave tomorrow at dawn."

We did it! We accomplished a part of our mission! But we still have to protect dozens of cats in the journey...
