Warriors: Omen of the Stars

The fourth series, entitled Warriors: Omen of the Stars, was released from 2009 to 2012 and comprises The Fourth Apprentice, Fading Echoes, Night Whispers, Sign of the Moon, The Forgotten Warrior, and The Last Hope. It is a direct continuation of Warriors: Power of Three. ThunderClan apprentice Dovepaw has the special ability to hear and see extremely distant things. When Dovepaw reveals that the cause of a drought to be a beaver dam upstream, Jayfeather and Lionblaze realize that she is the third cat in the prophecy from Power of Three. After Dovepaw saves ThunderClan from a falling tree with her powers, she receives special attention from Firestar that makes her sister, Ivypaw, jealous. Hawkfrost's spirit exploits her jealousy and befriends Ivypaw; he begins giving her battle training her in her dreams as Tigerstar did in The New Prophecy. Jayfeather, Yellowfang, and Spottedleaf discover that the Dark Forest cats are training for battle. Jayfeather finds out about Ivypaw's Dark Forest training; he suggests asking Ivypaw to act as a spy, and Ivypaw learns that Tigerstar is training her and training "under-recognized" cats to fight against the Clans, though they do not know it. Ivypaw and Dovepaw then receive the warrior names Ivypool and Dovewing. Jayfeather then visits the Tribe of Rushing Water, where he goes back in time to the Ancients and helps Half Moon become the first Stoneteller. He is then given a new prophecy: "The end of the stars draws near; three must become four, to battle the darkness that lasts forever". When a fox chases two apprentices, a mysterious cat scares away the fox; in searching for this cat, ThunderClan finds Sol. Dovewing and Ivypool spy on Sol as he plots with WindClan to attack ThunderClan and are almost discovered, but Hollyleaf, who has been living in the tunnels since the events of Sunrise, 'reveals' herself and leads the two to safety. Returning to ThunderClan, she shows them how to fight in the tunnels in preparation for a battle with WindClan. During the battle, she traps Sol, but releases him, warning him never to return to the Clans. In "The Last Hope", at the Moonpool, Yellowfang and Brambleberry—a former RiverClan medicine cat—tell Jayfeather that he must tell Lionblaze and Dovewing about the new prophecy he received while in the mountains, and unite all the Clans. They discover that Firestar is the fourth cat of the prophecy, and when the Dark Forest attacks the Clans, Firestar kills Tigerstar, Firestar loses his last life, and Brambleclaw becomes leader and names Squirrelflight his deputy.
