Disclaimer: Don't own Warriors or Code Lyoko (surprising isn't it)

Shadowpaw winced as she stood up, her shoulder ached, but she didn't care. Careful not to wake Milkpaw she crept out of the medicine cat's den.

Shadowpaw glanced around the camp making sure that no one was around. She padded out of the clearing.

Weaving around the bushes and over fallen logs Shadowpaw moved silently thorough the forest.

She didn't know where she was going only that she needed to get out of the camp.

Suddenly she heard some rustling leaves behind her. Shadowpaw ducked into a hollow log. Her black pelt melted into the night hiding her from any cat's vision.

She sniffed the air trying to figure out who it was. With a pang of regret she realized who it was, Milkpaw.

She backed out of the log hoping to confuse him. She took a big gulp of air to get a sense of which way to run. The last thing she needed was him following her.

'That can't be right' she though 'it smells like he's right here.' She looked around but didn't see him. Figuring that she might just be imagining it she turned to continue on her way.

She had only gone a couple of paw steps when, "where are you going?" Shadowpaw stood stalk still and sniffed the air. Yep Milkpaw, definitely Milkpaw she knew his sent anywhere.

Turning around she glared at him "why did you follow me?" He was sitting calmly behind her his tail tucked around his paws.

"Did you think you could sneak out without me knowing?" he asked. "I was hoping" she answered stiffly.

"You shouldn't be out here on your own, heck you shouldn't be out here at all with that shoulder" his voice was calm and set a comforting effect over Shadowpaw. "I just needed dome time to think that's all" she mewed turning to continue on her way.

Milkpaw got up and started to follow her. "If you're going to follow me than you might as well walk with me now that I know you're there" she mewed over her shoulder.

Milkpaw gladly picked up the pace and started to walk beside her. "What's worrying you?" He asked. "I'm not sure if I want to go back home" she answered.

Milkpaw stopped in his tracks "what?" "I said that I'm not sure if I want to go home when it comes to be time." She repeated.

The two cats had reached the top of a hill. Milkpaw took a sniff if the air "I smell the other clans." He stepped trough the lines of bushes.

Before him was a clearing. Four great oak trees lined the clearing with one big rock in the middle.

"The place in the dream" Milkpaw stated padding into the clearing. Shadowpaw followed suit.

"Bluestar said that this was four trees, the place where the four clans come to meet every full moon" Shadowpaw informed him. "The leaders sit on the top of that big rock" Shadowpaw flicked her tail in the direction of the great rock.

Milkpaw scampered up to the top of the rock. "I am Milkstar leader of ThunderClan" Milkpaw puffed out his chest and held his tail high. Shadowpaw laughed at him and how cheesy he looked.

"May the best warrior in the whole forest come up and join me" he beamed down at Shadowpaw. She laughed but climbed to the top of the rock.

"Wow you can see everything from up here" she looked around. "And you can see all the stars" Milkpaw added. Shadowpaw looked up to the stars.

He was right; you could see all the stars from here. "Which one do you think is Bluestar?" Shadowpaw asked. "If I had to guess I think it's that one" Milkpaw flicked his tail in the direction of a bright star with a tint of blue to it. "It does seem like her doesn't it" Shadowpaw smiled at his choice.

"I have a star you know" Shadowpaw mewed. "Really?" Milkpaw looked at her. He then looked back up to the sky. "I bet it's that one" he pointed to the brightest and biggest star in the sky. She smiled "yah I wish." "Well it should be" Milkpaw laid down on the rock. "Because it's just like you" he added.

A small breeze ruffled her fur. "Something isn't right" she muttered turning to look behind her, nothing. Convincing herself it was nobody she settled down next to Milkpaw.

"So o great and powerful Milkstar, what will my warrior name be" Shadowpaw asked. Milkpaw thought about it for a moment "Shadowrose" he declared finally.

"Why?" she asked. "It just seems to fit" he replied before adding "your pelt may be dark as night but your really as sweet as a rose".

"What should mine be?" he asked. "Milkweed" she answered right away. "Why that one?" he asked her. "Because you seem to pop up everywhere, even where you're not supposed to" she said playfully. Milkpaw chuckled.

A chilled wind sent a shiver down Shadowpaw's spine. "Something bad is going to happen Milkpaw, I can feel it" she whispered.

"Bad things always happen to us, that's our story, but we always seem to get by." Ulrich mewed comfortingly.

"You don't get it, I now things that you don't. I know what's going to come and it's not good. Blood will be shed, cats are going to die. We might not make it." She paused before adding "I might not make it."

Milkpaw looked at her alarmed "what do you mean you might not make it?" "I was given nine lives and only nine lives not ten, or eleven, nine. If I'm not careful I won't make it home and that star really will be mine." She looked up at the stars.

"I want you to know that if I do die and I don't get to come back with you don't feel bad. I like it here and I like silverpelt and StarClan. I like it enough to almost not go back even if I do live."

"Is it nice up in StarClan?" Milkpaw asked. Shadowpaw nodded "beautiful, like nothing you've ever seen."

"I don't know what I'll do if you don't come back with us" Milkpaw muttered so Shadowpaw almost couldn't hear him. She licked her ear. "You would go home and live in the present and forget the past. Have a family and love them to pieces. Then one day we will be together again. That's what I would want you to do, but we don't have to worry about that now because I'm alive and mostly healthy except for this darn shoulder." She sat up and looked at Milkpaw.

With an exited glint in her eyes she asked "want to race back?" he shook his head "not with that shoulder you won't now come on we will walk back, emphasis on the walk part." "You're too protective" she whined playfully. He shrugged "I can live with that."

With that the two cats hopped off of the great rock and padded back to camp.

What wasn't known was that someone had been watching.

Who is it that's watching them? Are they friend or foe, only I know. (Hey that rhymed) This chapter only included two characters Milkpaw and Shadowpaw it was my friends idea to hive him follow her I would have had another character because when it's only these two I can't help but write fluff but she insisted it had to be him. anyway the more reviews I get the faster I type more so if you want me to update this story before my others you have to give me at least 5 reviews otherwise it'll be put on the back burner for a while and you don't want that. So review away
