"Flamepaw? Flamepaw," a voice had whispered.
Startled by this, Flamepaw had opened his eyes widely and got up to his paws instantly, "Shadow! You're back."
The black she-cat nodded, "You see that?"
Shadow had directed Flamepaw's gaze to the pack of maybe ten dogs. Flamepaw was incredibly frightened by this.
"...woah," he squeaked.
Shadow had only let out a tiny chuckle, "Come on, dogs aren't all that bad Flamepaw. I've brought you here for a reason you know."
Flamepaw had looked at Shadow, "You brought me to all of these dogs? Why?"
"Because it's time Flamepaw," Shadow had replied, "It's time for you to discover your trait."
Shadow looked at Flamepaw deep in his eyes, "All you must do is focus all your emotions into one place. Do not wander off, do not think of anything else. While doing that, think about your name."
Flamepaw had begun to say to himself Flamepaw, Flamepaw, Flamepaw..
Suddenly, Flamepaw had smelled smoke, "Hey, is there a fire around here?"
Flamepaw had looked down at his paws seeing a flame that covered it. He felt a bit of fear at first, but it soon turned into joy.
"Alright, now you must control the flame towards those dogs. You can do it," Shadow encouraged Flamepaw.
Flamepaw had hurled the mighty flame towards the pack of dogs. They had all lit on fire and burned up.
"Wow, I can't wait to show my friends this," Flamepaw muttered to himself. He had begun to speak up a little more loudly, "Wait. Aren't you Shadow? As in, Shadowstar right. Why did you choose to help me? Why not a Shadeclan cat"
Shadow looked away from Flamepaw, "Shadeclan is not my clan. None of the clans are, so I can help whoever I want. Now you must wake up Flamepaw. A great darkness is coming... do not judge cats based on their clan, for you never know which ones will help you or which ones will betray you..."
