  "Quick, get Futuretaker and Macaw!" Fateglare shouted. "Cloudwatcher is collapsing!"

"O-Okay!" Tunnelrunner replied, sprinting through a cave.

"Cloudwatcher, speak to me!" Fateglare said, worried.

"I see a storm brewing." Cloudwatcher said, her words seeming twisted somehow, as if they weren't her own.

"What do you mean by a storm?" Fateglare asked.

"We're back!" Tunnelrunner announced, gasping for air.

"What's going on?" Macaw asked calmly.

"Cloudwatcher collapsed and is talking about 'a storm brewing'. Her breathing is heavy, but her voice is strange." Fateglare answered.

"This... hasn't happened in quite a while..." Futuretaker muttered to himself. "Tunnelrunner, pass me that slate over there, could you?"

Tunnelrunner quickly did as he was told, passing the slate to Futuretaker.

Just then, Cloudwatcher began to talk again.

"When the sky thunders and the ocean churns,

A new threat will arise

Four dragons must learn the power of trust

Or Pyrrhia will be plunged into a war most unjust

A Seawing born with scales of red

A Rainwing who trusts those from near the sea

A Sandwing descended from a prophecy of dread

And a Skywing far from where they should be

The orders of their queens they must defy

If they wish to prevent the collapse

Of the Sea and the Sky"

"Just as I thought..." Futuretaker said. "It appears that a prophecy has been spoken."

"Will Cloudwatcher be alright?" Fateglare asked. "Will my sister be alright?"

"Yes, yes. You have nothing to worry about. She might need some sleep, but I assure you that Cloudwatcher will be fine." Futuretaker said.

"I'll stay here too, it's best to have someone who knows medicine if things go wrong." Macaw said.

"Should we try to... figure out what the prophecy means?" Tunnelrunner asked nervously.

"Don't worry, I will devote my time into studying this prophecy, and all of its little details. Maybe we can even prevent it from ever coming to pass." Futuretaker said.

"Should we tell the queens?" Tunnelrunner asked.

"I will tell her personally." Futuretaker answered. "With what this prophecy entails, however, I suggest that we not tell the other tribes. It may lead to war. I will, of course, write it down just in case these events ever come to pass, but I believe that it will be many generations before they do, if ever..."
