Feeling pain as I was slammed against the ground

The teeth of the dog clenched around my tail

Feeling dead

I thought I had died

Cloudtail saved me

I felt alive again

The cats that shied from my face

Gave me strength to become better

My name, Lostface, made me want to be its opposite

I trained

With my own method

Learning to fight

The final confrontation

Against the Clan of Blood

I proved my worth

Got my name

"Brightheart, Brightheart!"

I survived the journey

Through the mountains,

To the lake

I watched my daughter

Get her warrior name

"Whitewing, Whitewing!"

But at that time SHE had come

My challenger

That stupid worthless cat

From the Horseplace

Sitting in the nursery,

Eating our fresh-kill,

Stealing my mate

"Cloudtail, Cloudtail!"

I hated her

Her soft fur

Her perfect face

I spent time with my sister

In the medicine den

Medicine den

"Cinderpelt, Cinderpelt!"

My sister perished

Under a badger's claws

Saving my brother's kits

That worthless queen fled

But my mate saw her for who she was

A fake, a fake

The flowery fake

She deserved that heartbreak

But I felt sad

And we became somewhat friends

"Daisy, Daisy!"

We somehow became friends

She wasn't that worthless at all

She helps the queens,

Including my own daughter

Who has given birth to two

My kin,

My legacy,

"Dovekit, Ivykit!"

I have made peace with myself,

My rivals,

My heart

I feel I deserve my name,

"Brightheart, Brightheart!"
