I am Splashkit of RiverClan. I have always been a crazy dreamer. I have dreamt about so many things. Some were terrifying and some weren't. I was born two weeks ago. I have had 12 unique dreams. I wonder if I will have one tonight...
"Splashkit!" yowls my mother
"Yes mom?" I ask
"Time for bed! You can have more adventures tomorrow" she says
"Fine" I spat
I curl up against my mother and close my eyes.
I walk towards the river. I hear the sound of the rushing water. I'm going to try to catch a fish. I spot one. It is grayish silver.
"It moves fast" I say as it moves away from my paws
I begin to search for another. A few minutes pass and I have found another one. I crouch down into a proper hunting crouch. I creep closer and closer until I am fox-length away.
"It doesn't see me" I thought
I continue to move closer. Suddenly, this huge gust of wind blows me into the water.
"Help!" I mew
I being to struggle.
"Help me! I'm drowning!" I yowl
The invisible force continued to drag me under. I was completely under the water in a matter of minutes.
"I'm going to die" I thought
But I didn't.
"I'm not dying! Wait…I can breathe under water?" I thought
Realizing this fact, I begin to look for fish. I spot what looks like a trout. I remember Pebblepaw showing me one. I swim after it, diving deeper and deeper. I finally catch up to it. It is massive! I can't believe its size! I try to swing my paw at it but the water slowed me down. The fish ran away. It was pretty…I want to be a fish… I then move to the edge of what seems like a cliff. In front of me was a large drop. I was scared. I backed away slowly. I run into another cat. She looks like the same size as me.
"Hello" I say
"Hi" the she-cat answers
"Do you like the fish?" I ask
"Yeah. They are pretty. What's your name?" she asks
"Splashkit. What's yours?" I say
"Rose" she says
"Well hello Rose. Would you like to go see if we can catch a fish?" I ask
"Sure" Rose says
Me and Rose swim in the opposite direction of the cliff.
"So how old are you Splashkit?" Rose asks
"I'm only one week" I answer
"So you're young" She says
"Yes. How old are you?" I ask
"I don't know…" Rose says
"Oh. Look over there! Look at the size of that fish!" I say
"Let's go get it!" Rose says
Me and Rose swim as fast as we can towards the fish. The fish sees us but doesn't move.
"Hey. I haven't see the likes of you around here for a while. How are you Rose?" the fish asks
"I'm good. This is my friend, Splashkit" Rose says
"Nice to meet you Splashkit" the fish says
"N-n-nice to meet you too" I stutter
"I have something I want to show you, Rose" says the fish
"Ok! Let's go! Are you coming Splashkit?" Rose asks
"Yeah" I say
The fish, Rose and I swim for what seems to be a long time. We were swimming against the current so that was what made the swimming seem hard. We rested for a few minutes at what seemed like half-way in our journey.
"Hey Rose, do you know where we are going?" I ask
"Nope!" Rose answers
"Then why are we going?" I ask
"Because I want to go on an adventure" she says
"Oh" I say
"You don't have to come if you don't want too" Rose says
"I want to go, but I need to leave" I say
"Ok, it was nice meeting you, Splashkit" Rose says
"It was nice meeting you too" I say
I swim away from Rose. I look back, just to see Rose and the fish swimming away.
"I wonder if I should I went with them" I thought
I swim back the way we came. I spot more fish. One of them approaches me.
"Hey, I haven't seen you around here before! Quit trespassing!" the fish spat
"Sorry" I mew
I swim away from the fish. I swim faster as I see him chasing me away.
"Leave me alone!" I mew
"Then go away!" the fish says
"I'm trying!" I say
I swim even faster. The fish stops following me after a while.
"Never come back!" the fish shouts
After I'm out of sight of the fish, I decide to dive to the bottom of the stream. On the way down, this brownish green object that was attached to the bottom, rubbed up against me.
"Yuck!" I say
I continue to swim to the bottom. I finally reach it after what seems like an eternity.
"I'm here" I say
"Welcome" says an object
"Who said that?" I ask
"I did" the object says as sand walls close in on me
"What going on?" I say in shock
I get no response. The sand walls get closer and closer.
"It hurts!" I yowl as the walls begin to crush me
I black out.
I awake in the nursery screaming.
"What's wrong Splashkit?" my mother asks
"Nothing. Just a bad dream" I say
My mother rolls her eyes and goes back to sleep. I stay awake for the rest of the night.
