'Rise above them'

Now that I know the truth no one will stop me. I'm a leader, well not really, but I definitely feel like one. Snowstar is always by my side, were ever I go. I also go to his den every night, nothing big. Tonight I walk in, "What's up?"

I shrug nothing really happens in my life right now. At least nothing big.

"Stripedleaf I need to teach you to fight properly, also what to do in certain situations."

"But, I thought I fight good?"

"Those times they weren't expecting it, you have never fought in a real battle. Follow me."

He leads me deep into the forest were no one would probably find us.

"Try this," he says as he does it.

...

He leads me even deeper into the forest were no one would definitely come.

"So Stripedleaf, what classes did you take?"

"Well, I took all the basic classes, Algebra II, Art stuff, also Japanese. I don't quite remember what level, honestly in real life I never payed attention to it."

"Is that were you get your puzzling skills from?"

"Not sure, I mean Algebra is math, not this!"

"True," he laughs a bit, "Do you like writing?"

"Yes!"

"Have an example you remember?"

"Yes, Hey! Were she go?
I mean wasn't she here a minute ago?
I thought I heard screaming outside
Someone with her I thought
I tried to lure them, but they wouldn't abide
So I went inside
But before I went inside they said
This one is mine
Across the street there was a blood splattered car
And it wasn't that far
They grabbed her when out backs were turned
The rest was just a blur
Are they going to take me another story?
Hopefully it doesn't get to gory
It wouldn't be fun expressly if they had a gun
They tied me up to a chair
How long do I have to here?
She looked frightened as the ropes tightened
But she is ours now
It didn't matter how she felt anymore, it mattered how we felt now
My vision blurred as the rope around my neck tightened
We couldn't find her anywhere. It was too much to bare.
Fear gripped our hearts at the thought of her.
It is a nightmare
She was slowly losing consciousness, so I go for awhile
I heard a click, what has happened now?
I heard the boards creak as he walked closer
Then a click and pain flooded through my body
As we walked by the building there was a screaming
The scream was shrill, and it sent chills down our backs.
Attacker View: It was nice to see her so helpless
As I clicked the trigger and the shrill scream happened, I smiled.
I through the gun away and pull out my knife
I put it to her throat
We follow the sound of the scream to come upon a house.
I hear footsteps, but I'm more worried about myself living than that
The lights were all off except for one where two figures were.
She seemed distracted, like she heard something. That was nerving.
She is bleeding heavily and I smile at my work. I'm all done here.
A cry of agony, a cry of help
We rush up to the top seeing our leader dying...
We don't dare touch her to inflict more pain...
We call medical help to get her now
The medics come and apply bandages to stop the wounds. We feel our hearts break as our leader is carried into the ambulance
She blinks awake, confused
But I see a silhouette, who is it? Then I realize I'm not awake.
Everything that I just saw was fake.
We file inside, looking at her rest, waiting for her to wake.
She starts stirring then she is awake
I lived through this tragedy, that shows Starclan is with me. That's more of my happier ones."

"That's what you call happy?"

I shrug, "I guess so"

"Anyways what's the true reason you brought me here."

"To plan everything."

"Plan what Snowstar? I don't think there is anything to plan, we can't tell the future."

"Snowstar, why have they done this?"

"Stripedleaf,this is one of those questions that is really hard, but you got the brain to figure it out."

Do I? How did I even manage to figure out the first part of the puzzle? They trying to destroy us, I think, but there giving us more skill, such as Snowstar, he is getting more skill on leadership. I'm getting experience in multiple skills.

I blink my eyes, I'm in a different place. It's black, everywhere. It's like your eyes are closed in pitch black, but they are open. I hear screaming, but I can't get anywere. I finally manage to get myself out of the chair? I can't see were I'm going, there is also no walls, I stumble and trip.

I finally get back to the "real world" what was that? Definitely didn't seem like a prophecy, but yet it did. If they tried to pick stupid people, I think they picked to wrong person. There is no way to stop me now, if that's what they are trying to do. A prophecy to show I'm helpless? Good try. Apparently not good enough my "friends"

He head back home. Finally, it's been a long day of training. My legs and hands are exhausted. Is it all in my hands? Or all of us? They can't simply tell us? Is the world on my shoulders? Probably not, but then, maybe. I push all of the thoughts out of my mind. I just need to calm down. Then it hit me I punched someone before the meeting. That had to mean something right? It did, I'm definitely on the right track. Snowstar is a bit secret about himself, another hint? I think all the small things will combine to bigger things. It's a massive staircase. Every step towards the top is a clue. At the top we are free. I'm probably half way there.
