Shadefur's Dreams

The night after the battle, I had a dream. A shocking dream.

"Shadefur, I'm so proud of you." My mother purred. It turned out my mother died of yellow cough.

"So is the prophecy over?" I asked.

"Shadepaw?" A voice echoed. I whirled around and saw my siblings!

"Pebblekit! Flamepaw! Frospaw! I'm Shadefur now by the way." I yowled.

"Actually, Its Flamelion, Frostfang and Pebbleleaf is now a medicine cat!" Flamelion yowled back.

"Incredible!" I purred.

"We must talk now." Petalsong(mom) said.

We all looked to her at once. "What is it mom?"

"You all must know that your sister Shadefur is going to die." She mewed.

"What?" Frostfang hissed. "You told us why she left and about her prophecy but never about her dying!"

"Pebbleleaf and Flamelion will cause the death." She said it so quite I could barely hear!

"We would never do that!" Pebbleleaf growled.

"Ya" Flamelion yowled.

"All will reveal itself in time. The choice which must be made. A Dove will take flight in honor." Petalsong recited.

Star clan disappeared and I awoke once more.

Instead of waking to the pleasant smell of shadow clan pines, I woke up to the smell of smoke! I poked my head out of the warriors den and saw a horrendous sight. The sight of a forest fire.

"Fire!" I yowled.

"Everyone evacuate! Leave no one behind!" Ripplestar hissed.

The clan was in chaos! "Yellowfoot help the medicine cat get the herbs! All remaining warriors help the queens elders and kits!" I yowled. Ripplestar was going to destroy me for acting like the clan leader!

At last, the clan was safe sheltering in river clan territory. While Rainstar discussed with Ripplestar, I looked for my brothers and sisters.

All of a sudden Rainstar yowled in furry. "Shadepaw! Why did you run away?"

"I had the prophecy! You know about it already." I meowed.

"Shadefur was a river clan cat?" Ripplestar hissed.

"So what? She's still a loyal warrior!" Pebbleleaf growled.

"Defending your sister. Typical!" Rainstar yowled.

Ripplestar launched him self at me.

"Get away from my sister!" Firelion attacked Ripplestar!

"Stop!" I yowled.

"You will suffer Shadefur! Your siblings will be killed for the punishment! How dare you lie to me?" Ripplestar yowled. He had Pebbleleaf and Firelion pinned on the ground with one paw on each warrior. A quick killing bite would finish them off.

"Shadefur, help." Firelion wheezed. They could hardly breath!

Ripplestar lowered his head and was going to give the killing bite in less than 1 second. But I was quicker. I leaped in front of Ripplestar and his bite ripped my throat. I was dying. Frostfang cried on me while my brothers looked at each other with hatred for killing me.

"Oh no! I must heal her, I'm a medicine cat!" A grey cat yowled.

"There's nothing you can do Dowepaw." Pebbleleaf mewed.

Dovepaw flung herself at me and finished me off with a scratch. Before I died, I saw Dovepaw turn into a dove and fly up. A dove will take flight. It's true. This was the end. I'd fulfilled my prophecy at long last even though I was considered a young warrior. "Good bye" I whispered.
