Holly And The Leaves

Hollyleaf ran through the tunnels, pulling air into her lungs. Her eyes were wide with terror as she tried to find an exit. She didn't mean for this to happen! She felt like a starclan anscestor was running beside her, giving her power, this gave her hope. There's no escape... Someone seemed to be saying in her head. Hollyleaf ran faster and farther, her lungs burning. She couldn't be stuck down here! There must be an escape.

Hollyleaf crawled into a nook in one of the upper caves. She curled up and desprately tried to think of a plan to get out. She briefly felt a warm pelt fall beside her as she fell asleep. She woke up with a tuft of white and orange fur between her claws. 'Claws got caught on something. She briefly thought. Hollyleaf crawled out of the nook and sniffed the air. It smelled different. She could hear rain pounding on the earth above. She scratched her claws against the stone floor. She remembered saving the windclan kits and the terror of a cave flooding, so she avoided the deeper tunnels.

She tried to mark the tunnels she had scouted but it was too intertwining to remember. She kept seeing flashes of light and fur, but convinced herself it was just her mind playing tricks on her.
