Littlecloud lay down in his nest. He had had a busy day but it hadn't stopped him from forgetting about his apprentice: Flametail. He curled up in his nest and fell asleep.
Littlecloud felt cold water surrounding his body. He snapped his eyes open. He was in the lake. He tried to swim up but the water was pulling him down. He panicked; he kicked about trying to get to the surface of the water. He needed air. He opened his mouth and felt water fill his lungs. Then everything went dark.
Littlecloud groaned and opened his eyes. His eyes glistened when he saw Flametail. "Flametail!" Littlecloud glanced around. "Am I dead? " Suddenly Littlecloud remembered what had happened. "I was drowning in the lake!"
"No," Flametail disagreed. "It was me who was drowning in the lake."
"So I just saw what happened to you?" Littlecloud asked. It was horrible. No cat would like to die that way. Flametail nodded.
"You have been distracted by my death," Flametail explained. "The clan needs you. You must heal the Clan, not think about me. You have seen how I died. You have felt it as if it was you who died. Greencough is coming. The clan needs you. You must be ready to help them."
"But you were too young to die," Littlecloud protested.
"It was my time to join StarClan," Flametail replied. "It will be your time soon but first you must help you're Clan, then when you are in Starclan, you can worry about me." The young cat sounded so wise.
"I will do all I can to help my Clan," Littlecloud promised.
"I know you will," Flametail spoke softly. "I will see you later." Littlecloud watched as Flametail disappeared.
Littlecloud woke up in his nest. He got to his paws and walked out to see Silverpelt. He sat there looking up at the sky. "I promise you Flametail, I will do all I can to look after the clan that you should be with now." Littlecloud curled up and that night he slept under the stars knowing that Flametail was watching him from StarClan happily.
THIS IS MY FIRST ONE-SHOT. I HOPE IT'S OK!
