Cinderpelt clawed at the badger's nose frantically. Then a huge paw clawed her and she felt it crush her bones. She turned back to Sorreltail.
Suddenly, Leafpool came in. Crowfeather was right behind her. When she saw the badger she clawed at it with Crowfeather helping her. After a few minutes the badger ran out.
Leafpool crouched at Cinderpelt's side. "Please don't die."
"I knew this was going to happen," Cinderpelt mewed, weakly. "ThunderClan will be well taken care of with you as their medicine cat."
"No! Don't go! I'll get you some cobwebs," Leafpool wailed.
"No. I'm afraid it's too late. You will be a great medicine cat. I have trained you well," Cinderpelt murmured. Then the light slowly died from her eyes and they grew blank and cloudy.
"No!" Leafpool wailed again.
ooo
"Please let me go back!" Cinderpelt pleaded.
"Why?" Bluestar meowed simply.
"I-I didn't do what I wanted to in my life. I wanted to be a warrior!" Cinderpelt wailed. "Please?"
Bluestar nodded. "I will send you back as one of Sorreltail's kits."
"Wait. Sorreltail?"
"Yes."
"S-sorreltail?"
Then a cold breeze and a light mist swirled around her with glittery stars.
ooo
"She looks exactly like Cinderpelt," Sorreltail meowed. "Can I call her Cinderkit?"
"Yes," Brackenfur said. He touched Cinderkit lightly with his muzzle. "Hello Cinderkit."
Cinderkit found a place to suckle and closed her eyes. She was going to become a warrior this time.
