Just so you know, they're in a dream now. That's why they can see.
Soul knocked the gray-eyed tom to the ground. He landed with a thud, and lay still. She paused before she pounced. "Ghost? Are you okay?" The tom still didn't move. Catiously, she padded over to the tom. One of his eyes were open. Before she could react, the tom pounced on her, and she started to squirm. "Get off!" she protested.
Ghost let out a triumpent purr as he planted a paw on her shoulders. "Remember, never trust your enemy." I'll Remember that, Soul thought bitterly, slumping to the ground. Just then, Ghost's gray eyes went wide with fear. He stepped off of her and stared into the distance. Soul leapt to her paws.
"What's wrong?" she asked, tensing incase this was another trick. Ghost raised his tail for silence, and continued staring. Soul squinted her eyes and gazed into the misty forest. A leaf tumbled from one of the branches, and landed on the seemingly gray ground. She looked into the branches of that tree, and could just make out eyes glowing at her.
"Get out of here...," Ghost hissed through his teeth, pushing her into the bushes. Soul landed on her back. Wanting to see what was happening, she scrambled into a crouching position. She watched as a slender form emerged from the forest. It was ginger she-cat with white paws. Her amber eyes gleamed as she stared at ghost. Her fur, although sleek, was covered in scars.
"You have found her," The she-cat mewed. At this, Soul was puzzled. Who had Ghost found? Ghost, however, looked just as confused.
"You mean The Other Star?" he asked. "But I couldn't have! This cat didn't come from home, she came from a- another place!" The ginger cat simply gazed cooly at him.
"How do you know which home i'm speaking of?" she mewed, and Ghost's eyes widened.
"You mean Shining rock?" he asked, and the she-cat nodded. When Ghost said this, Soul felt something tugging her from the inside, as if she'd heard about that place before.
"Because you have," a voice stated beside her. Turning, Soul came face-to-face with another cat. She had long, silky black fur and amber eyes.
"Who are you?" Soul asked. The she-cat blinked and spoke again in her sweet, song-like voice.
"I am Melody, and you have heard of that place before." The she-cat mewed. Soul opened her moth to speak, but the she-cat's memories came to her in an instance. There were claws and lolling tongues, cats shreiking in pain and terror, and blood spreading in a puddle on the ground. Suddenly, the world turned upside down and everything went dark.
Gasping, Soul opened her eyes. Melody was staring at her sadly, flexing her claws. "You will suffer a fate like mine, and die young, unless you can stop the blood. Stars will shine on the Shining rock, Just wait for the quail that sung."
Her words had the hint of a prophecy, and she touched her nose to Soul's ear. "Good luck," Melody mewed, than faded away untill everything around Soul was lost in sleep.

Melody opened her eyes and gazed around. The feild she was in shone like stars, and several cats who had just died were around her. 'I'm dead. My whole family is dead.'
A ginger she-cat sitting on a rock, their leader, was the first to speak. 'The cat who took the Shining Rock's power almost suceeded.' she mewed. 'Though not quite. Two remain alive, and will save the forest from the traitor.
Sighing in relief, Meoldy realized she had no need to worry. Although she was dead, the forest still lived on.
