Chapter 7

"Moonpaw! Moonpaw!" Mistpaw ran over to Moonpaw, with Cloudpaw trailing behind her, "How was your training? I had sooooo much fun! Cinderlight brought me across the whole territory, from the Moonpool to the Crystal Cave where they have gatherings! Cloudpaw said Dimsky made him gather moss for the whole clan, but he caught this ginormous rabbit when he was doing so, and Dimsky said he was going to be the best hunter the clan had ever seen! And then..."

But Moonpaw was in no mood to listen to her siblings blabber on about their training sessions. She was too troubled by the day's events, and she wanted to see Nightshine for guidance. She'll explain everything, Moonpaw thought she's a Starclan cat, after all.

Moonpaw walked toward the camp exit. She hoped Amberleaf wasn't following as she trekked toward the Moonpool.

***

As she approached the Moonpool, Moonpaw thought back to the time she had first met Nightshine. Surely she'll appear again? Moonpaw thought.

Moonpaw drifted to sleep, and to her delight, she stood in a flowery clearing with Nightshine standing in the middle of it.

"Nightshine! Oh, I missed you so much!" She purred.

Nightshine smiled, "I know what you came here for."

Moonpaw shifted on her paws, "So what did the ivy leaf sign mean?"

"I can not tell you that, it's not your time to know."

Moonpaw scraped the ground with her claws, frustrated. Realizing the apprentice's impatience, Nightshine quickly spoke, "However, I do have some information for you."

Then, there was a blinding flash of light, and Moonpaw found herself standing in the Cloudclan camp, surrounded by familiar faces. However, she could see that something was very different. Everyone looked younger than before, and were carrying the scars from a recent battle. Moonpaw realized this was a vision.

Suddenly, Moonpaw heard a yowl, "My leg, oh my leg! It hurts!"

Moonpaw turned around to see Amberleaf being carried in by Silverwind and Lightcloud, limping. She screeched as they set her down.

"Oh Amberleaf, quit making such a big fuss!" Blizzardstar hissed.

"But, brother, it hurts!" She yowled, "That stupid Rainstar! I tore across the battlefield, I slaughtered all of these filthy things. I slashed her throat with such precision! But then, before she lost her last life, she wrenched my leg! Look what she did! How could she? How could she!"

Amberleaf let out several yowls, crying in between, and hissing, "How could she? I hope her stupid Lostclan dies the most terrible death, and suffers for eternity in the Dark Forest!"

"Take her to the medicine den!" Blizzardstar hissed, "My sister has gone mad."

The Silverwind and Lightcloud nodded, and they dragged Amberleaf into the den.

Blizzardstar sighed, and walked off.
