HELLO, Warriors! Welcome to the next chappy of my first Warrior's fanfiction! Anyway, in this chapter, the mysterious rogue encounters StarClan for the first time!Why does she think of it? Enjoy!
-(Start Of Dream )-
Twintail had no idea where she was. All around her were long tree trunks, so vastly high it seemed to touch the stars upon the midnight gaze. She padded around in circles, claws unsheathed, ready to attack any cat that dared to approach. The silent, black atmosphere made her extra cautious.
Just as she suspected, there was indeed a cat, silver and tinged with blue. She padded toward Twintail, and Twintail reacted by snarling, ears flat, claws extended.
"There is no need for the shed of blood." the wise gray-blue cat's voice echoed through the vast forest. "I am here to talk, to tell you of a great danger you have been chosen to play a great role in."
"Oh yeah?" Twintail spat back. "Why would I listen to a stranger like yourself? Last time I trusted a cat, this happened." Twintail flicked her tail, with had started halfway as a single tail, but split into two in the middle. She shook her head angrily. "So give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you!" With a howl, Twintail slashed a claw at the mysterious cat.
It went straight through her, as if the cat was made of nothing but air.
Twintail doubled back, looking furious and scared at the same time. "How-?"
"I'm already dead." The cat looked amusingly into Twintail's emerald eyes. "You can't kill a cat that has already been killed, now can you?"
"B-But if you're dead, how can I see you?" Twintail mused, looking more confused than hostile now.
"You are dreaming, my dear. I will lead you all the way to your chosen destiny, and that destiny to be a hero." The cat's silent gaze burned through Twintail's.
The strange gray cat streaked in blue continued. "When you wake, follow the stream until you find a vast moorland. You will find some rather strange cats, but when they prepare to fight you, ask them to take you to ThunderClan- it is the Clan that will help you the most."
"Clans?" Twintail tried the funny word. "What are they?"
"All will be explained in time," was the cat's reply. Already the blue-gray she-cat seemed transparent. But before she disappeared, she uttered something Twintail strained to hear.
"Liquid fire shall seep into the Clans, and until the problem is solved, it will burn all cats and harmony between them." Then the she-cat was no more.
"Hang on!" Twintail felt more confused then ever. "I don't understand completely! Can you at least say who you are?"
Twintail started into the black forest, yowling endlessly for the silver cat in blue. She sprinted and called for the mysterious cat so much her voice had become hoarse.
And every time she called, silence answered her.
-(End Of Dream)-
Twiltail's eyes flew open, and she shot up, still panting for breath much like what she did in her dream. Glancing around, she realized she was no longer in the black forest. She sighed in relief. It had been a mouse-brained dream after all!
Then she remembered something in her dream that made her blood turn to ice.
'When you wake, follow the stream until you find a vast moorland'. Twintail shivered. Should she listen to the cat in her dream?
"I guess there's no harm done by going on an adventure!" Twintail meowed, leaping to her paws and trotted to the stream where she drank from regularly.
Bending down and lapping up the cold water, Twintail could feel new energy in here body. Even if it had turned out to be just a dream, she could always follow the stream back so she could get home again. Yes, she thought as she straightened and padded alongside the stream. That seemed like a good backup plan.
On she traveled, watching the lush trees sway in the wind and the stream slushing quietly beneath her. Every so often she stopped to catch a meal, such as a mouse or a vole.
Twintail had seen the most plump rabbit hop by merrily without even noticing her. Dropping into a crouch, she slowly sneaked up onto her prey, and with a silent slash of her paws, the rabbit was all hers.
Twintail decided to eat the luxurious meal by the field of seemingly endless grass. She lied down and took one bite, letting the flavor soak through her mouth.
All out of nowhere, however, came an unfamiliar cat voice and a strange scent. Alarmed, Twintail shot up, claws extended.
A black cat bounded to her, snarling. "Just what do you think your doing here on WindClan's new moorland?" he growled.
Twintail's eyes went wide.
Did he just say... Moorland?
