The Nightmare

A small black kittypet stood shaking in the forest. He had been attacked by a cat and left for dead. He desperately tried to call out in hopes someone would come to him but no one did. Fern tugged at her paws trying to move toward the young kit, but her paws refused to budge. She could only watch, only watch the kit. He turned toward her, before crying out once more. She stared at the poor kit in horror, why was starclan showing her this? She wondered staring at the kit. Suddenly he seemed to fade, and was gone. In his place was a small black tom with dog teeth sticking from his collar. A pile of bones lie around him, and he grinned at her. Red stained his claws and a dead cat.. the same one that attacked the kit.. lay by his paws. She stared at him in horror desperately wanting to run away. However she seemed trapped in this dream.. she could't move only watch.  "Starclan.. tell me why you show me this" she shouted. At first there was silence then the scene around her flickered and changed into a forest. Four cats watched her, with sadness in there gaze. "If only you knew young one.." A tom said with a sigh. A shecat spoke up next "We can not tell you why we show you this.. we shouldn't even be speaking with you now." A young apprentice spoke up "We just wanted to warn you.." he said staring at his paws. A kit nodded in agreement "Stay safe" she whispered. Suddenly she was back in the moor, her sister staring at her. "Is everything alright?" she asked looking worried "You were fidgeting in your sleep." Fern paused for a moment "I'm fine Willow" she finally said getting to her feet. Willow started to open her mouth the respond before a voice interrupted her"Good that means you can go hunt' it growled. She whirled around, at the entrance stood a soaking wet tom.. her brother. "Leopard did you go for a swim again" she teased. He rolled his eyes "Unlike you i  am strong and helpful. I did hunt after all..." Besides her Willow started giggling "You strong? You only hunted because mother said if you didn't she would throw you in the river herself. " she said with a laugh. Fern normally would have joined in but she was still worried about that dream... what could it mean she wondered. "Fern do you hear me?" a voice said interrupting her thoughts. Her father, mother and her siblings were all staring at her. "What?" she asked confused. Her mother frowned "I said you should go hunting in the forest with Lighting, while Leopard and Willow head to the river...." she began. "Why do i have to go to the river!" leopard complained. She ignored this "Me and  your father Coyote will hunt on the moor. And then Fox and Oak will head to the pine forest." she finished. Fern nodded and glanced over at lighting. They met each others gaze before getting up to leave. She struggled to push the nightmare from her mind, and focus on hunting.
