Song of the Rain and Stars

"No!" Petalstorm cried, "not my kit! Anything but my kit!"

"I'm sorry Petalstorm, but we cannot save Lavenderkit." Berryfall muttered and looked the other way. Grief filled the medicine cat's eyes.

"Lavenderkit!" Petalstorm cried and poked her nose at lifeless kit. Tears falling onto its light grey fur. The light of StarClan Warriors filled the room, though they cannot be seen.

"This poor kit. It did not deserve to die this leaf-bare." The first one spoke.

"Spottedstar, we have to bring it back to life!" The second one spoke.

"Sadly, we can't do that. I know you loved that kit as much as if she was your own daughter, b we can't just bring her back to life Lilacpetal." Spottedstar replied though in her eyes, tears where forming.

"I know, but it just doesn't deserve this." Lilacpetal muttered. Spottedstar walked closer to the kit. The StarClan warrior pressed her nose against the kit and felt it's spirit going on a safe trip to StarClan. She closed her eyes and was about to leave.

"Curse you StarClan! Why did you have to take her? You stupid fox-hearted cats!" Petalstorm cried. Her eyes glaring skyward.

"You shouldn't say that, you should respect your ancestors." Berryfall said. Petalstorm turned her head towards Berryfall and glared at him. She unsheathed her claws and leaped towards the medicine cat.

"You should have saved her! You should have stopped them from taking that kit!" She cried and she landed on Berryfall and ripped his patches of fur from him.

"You know I can't do everything!" Berryfall hissed and retaliated by swinging his claws at her. The claws scratched Petalstorms neck and she fell over, gasping for air. The StarClan Warriors watched in disappointment before leaving.

"At least I will be...with...my...kit..." Petalstorm muttered before her eyes went dull. Berryfall looked at her and sighed. He looked at his bloody paws and closed his eyes.

"I don't think so...Petalstorm."

"Welcome to Dark Forest, Petalstorm."
