Chapter One

Crowfeather awoke the next morning in the warriors den. Nightcloud was still sleeping next to him. He got up and stepped out of the den. He yawned and stretched.

Ashfoot suddenly padded over to him. "Hunting patrol?" she asked.

Crowfeather nodded. "Alright,"

"Go wake up Sedgewhisker and Nightcloud to go with you," she told him as she bounded away.

Nightcloud? He thought. Nightcloud was his mate and he didn't really love her. He just wanted to get a mate so his Clan won't think he was disloyal after running off with the ThunderClan medicine cat, Leafpool.

He still had little feelings for her, but he would never show it.

After he awoke Sedgewhisker and Nightcloud they left camp.

Crowfeather opened his mouth to scent the air. He scented a rabbit near by and set after it.

He saw it digging up something in the ground. Then he got in the hunters crouch and crept forward.

Once he was about to leap at it a gust of wind blew and the rabbit ran off.

"Mouse-dung!" he spat.

He suddenly heard pawsteps behind him. He spun around and saw nothing.

He frowned. "Who's there?" he demanded.

There was no answer. Pawsteps were coming from everywhere in every direction.

Crowfeather looked all around him. "Stop! Show yourselves?"

Then everything was quiet.

Crowfeather's heart was pounding loudly.

What's going on? He thought.

"Crowfeather…" a voice echoed.

"Who's there?" Crowfeather looked around him and still saw no one.

"Do not be alarmed, Crowfeather…" the voice echoed again.

"Are you from StarClan?" Crowfeather asked.

A silver tabby she-cat suddenly stepped from behind some bushes.

Crowfeather blinked.

Am I seeing things? He thought when he realized who it was.

It was Feathertail.

"Hi Crowfeather!" she exclaimed cheerfully. "Why'd you think I was from StarClan?"

"F-Feathertail?" he asked, shocked.

"Yes? Are you okay? I know I'm not supposed to be in your territory, but you didn't come and see me last night,"

"Wha…You're alive!" he ran up to her and touched his nose to her muzzle.

"What do you mean? Of course I'm alive!"

"B-but you died and-"

"Crowfeather!" he heard Sedgewhisker calling.

Feathertail's fur bristled. "Meet me at the Gathering area tonight!" she hissed and ran off.

Okay, Crowfeather made the wish, and of course he's going to remember everything that happened. He remembers being with Leafpool and Nightcloud, but they don't know anything about being mates with him and no one remembers Feathertail dying. So Crowfeather is the only one who knows all that…
