Hi!
I know I haven't posted in a while but school is out so things are finally picking up for me in terms of writing. I also managed to get my paws on the entirePoT book series, so that should help a lot. I'm going to add this to Shattered Lives (the prequel) to make it a longer story. Shattered Lives is chopped up and I admit that I did a really bad job with it and am not sure how I can flesh it out. I'm hoping that by combining the stories the way I have it in my files, this can be of more help to you than anything else. Here, have a drabble chapter to ride you over until next time!

"Feel any better?" Cinderpaw wondered as Jaypaw shifted around in his nest. She set a squirrel before him and he tucked in gratefully, nodding to her question.
"My throat hurts from all the coughing and the river water I swallowed, but Leafpool gave me some honey for it. I should be fine by tomorrow."
"Good." Cinderpaw purred.
"Why are you so cheerful?"
"Hawkfrost got to visit Mothwing with help from StarClan."
"I don't think Mothwing believes in StarClan."
"She doesn't, according to Hawkfrost. She knows what fate is, and thinks someone is up there pulling things in the way they're supposed to go. But that's not what StarClan is. They can't do that, can they?"
"Control us? No. They're not supposed to. They can see all the pieces to the puzzle that makes up Clan life and they try to give each cat according to what their destiny is set to be. Mostly good cats, but they try to steer everyone toward the light. No one wants to go to the Dark Forest."
"That's the creepy place we found Hawkfrost in, right?"
"Hawkfrost found us." Jaypaw corrected, tail flicking agitatedly. "And it's good that he did. If it were some other cat, we wouldn't have gotten out of there alive."
"Lionpaw probably could." Cinderpaw scowled. "I swear, it's like he's invincible! No cat can lay a claw on him" She snapped.
Jaypaw snorted.
"He probably thinks he is." The blind tabby chuckled.
