(Tigertail

(Spottedpaw's P.O.V.)

First Tigertail, and then Cedarpaw! Two of my best friends in the whole world now hate me. Could this get any worse? Well, that's just great. I walk into the apprentice den and pad over to my nest. I sit there for a while, padding around my nest, trying to find a comfortable spot to curl up. As I lay down to sleep, one face pops into my head, Tigertail. I will talk to him later, but for now, I rest.

I open my eyes to the clan buzzing around the camp. The whole place looks like it is in fast-forward, everyone just streaks of fur on their way somewhere else. I walk through the crowd, trying to make my way to the medicine cat den that was just a few tail lengths away, but it seems to be growing a farther and farther walk. Why can't I reach it? I should be there by now. All in a flash, Tigertail streaks in front of me, blocking my way. "Tigertail, get out of my way. I have to train with Hollyflower this morning." He doesn't budge. Instead, he leans backwards, into striking position and lunges at me, claws outstretched.

I wake up with my pelt on fire and the fur on my back spiking up.

(Tigertail's P.O.V.)

I run out of camp as fast as I can, wanting to get away from my screwed up life. This wasn't how it was supposed to be, not for us. I didn't even bother to check my surroundings, I just kept running. I hear something to my side and look over to see a huge tom running along side me. I streak to a halt and he stops with me. he stood in front of me, towering over me like I was a mouse and he was the hunter.

I pulled my lips back into a snarl, warning him not to come any closer as I stepped back. He just sat there and watched me, like he was watching a bird he wasn't intending to kill, peck on the ground. I sat up, now curious of the huge tom. "Who are you? What are you doing in Thunderclan territory?" I asked, not really in a threatening way. He just stood there for a minute, then spoke.

"My name is Shadowheart." He said. I stood and waited for him to speak again, but he said nothing. He just sat and looked at me. "Care to explain, Shadowheart?" I asked, getting a little irritated.

"Of course. I was from Shadowclan, but my own clanmate turned against me." he growled the last part. I thought for a moment but couldn't understand. "What do you mean used to? You can't be apart of any other clan. I only smell Shadowclan." I look at him for a while, trying to figure out exactly what he was doing here. As I look closer, I see that he has a dark glow to him. To me, it seemed king of see through. I can swear that I can see the trees through him.

And then it hit me, he must be from Starclan! Oh wow, a real Starclan warrior! "Are you from Starclan? Because that would explain a lot." I ask him curiously. Surprisingly, he shook his head. I gaped widely at him, shocked at what he said. Where else could he have been from? "What do you mean not from Starclan? Where are you from then?" I asked.

He thought for a moment. "I am from a place called the Darkforest. It's a place where cats who weren't supposed to die go so they can train cats that need help finding their path. We live among you just like Starclan, but we are much more powerful. And I have a certain mission. I have come to ask you a very important question Tigertail."

I sit for a minute, pondering over his information. "Ok, what is your question?" He took a breath and spoke. "I was sent here to train you. You have a very important destiny in store for you, if you chose to accept it. You are destined to become the leader of your clan, and you need to know how to get there. Will you let me train you in my ways?"

He waited patiently for my answer, and I was grateful. I thought carefully for a moment, and being leader sounded pretty good to me. I have wanted to be leader for as long as I can remember. "You can teach me anything you want to, Shadowheart. I will be your new apprentice."

A/N- ooohh, what do you know. I will write my new chapter soon. Please review and I am sorry again for not posting sooner!
