AN: Hello again loyal readers! This is a story Silversream's death. Was it really and accident?

The Only Way Out

Silverstream was panicking. Her Father had accidentally found out about Graystripe and the kits!

Plus, she was having contractions! Then, she stumbled over to the riverbank and passed out. Later, she woke up to the sound of panicked voices. She opened her eyes to see Cinderpaw, the trainee Medicine Cat of Thunderclan. "Oh! Good, your awake! Here eat this, it will help you." Cinderpaw pushed towards her a herb of some sort.

But then, Cinderpaw turned around and she shoved the herb under a bush. She had to die! She couldn't face her Father. Not after this. It would shame the Clan! Graystripe, well he would just have to fend for himself. Suddenly, about two paw-steps away, she saw a deathberry. She batted it over with her paw and ate it quickly. That would surely kill her!

This was the only way out. Then there was blackness. She could remember nothing after that except a soft voice calling to her saying "Do not be afraid". As she sat on her perch in the halls of Starclan, she had racked her memory for her last few moments, but came up with nothing. Silverstream wasn't sure if what she did was right, but she knew it was the only way out.
