The huge monster bore down on the small gray kitten, lights shining and burning her eyes. She was frozen, too scared to move. She braced herself for impact and sent a small prayer to StarClan. Time had slowed and she savored her last few breaths.
Suddenly, a voice whispered commandingly in her ear.
"Tuck your legs under you and flatten your head to the ground."
The kitten was slow to move, and the voice multiplied until it was screaming at her. The kitten followed suit and touched her nose to the foul pavement just as the monster roared over her.
The kitten heard the roar die away until all was silent. She peeled back her eyes to see the edge of other clan territory.
"Cinderpaw!" She heard a voice but could not seem to place it, even though it was so familiar.
Suddenly, teeth gripped her scruff and she was pulled off the pavement onto soft grass.
"Cinderpaw! Thank StarClan you're okay…" Ginger fur enveloped her, shaking. Cinderpaw turned her head slightly, not fully comprehending what just happened.
Dark amber eyes stared back at her from the shadows…
Green eyes searched her face worriedly…
Cinderpaw met Fireheart's gaze, shivered, and blacked out.
