Chapter 21, The Search for Nightwind
Shadowflight stared at the golden path for a long time. She felt weak; the quills had basically been energy suckers.
Suddenly there was a popping, crackling noise, and she turned around. Nightwind was lying limply on the rock, the green light gone. She was unconscious, but she looked like she would wake up soon.
Shadowflight looked back at the path, the golden fire, and knew instantly what she was to do. She sat down, and sat there for a second, watching the pattern the colors in the sky made on the snow. Finally she padded over to Rockpool. He wasn't awake.
"Goodbye," she whispered. She looked at his still form for a moment, then padded over to the boulder. She leaped up beside Nightwind.
She was cold, but she was breathing. Shadowflight looked at her for a long time, then leaped off the boulder and padded over to the path way that led into the Otherworld.
The looked at the burnt-in paw prints made by Demon, then she cautiously placed her paw onto the path. She made her own print, but instantly her paw burned with pain. She lifted it, and put it down in a new location. She had burned in her own paw print.
She walked carefully over the path, each paw burning with pain with every step. She was halfway over, but still she couldn't see the other side.
There were stars ahead of her, suspended in light green light. She continued walking, and the path started sloping down gently. She turned around, and saw the blazing colors in the sky, Nightwind limp on the rock, and Rockpool. Then she saw streaks of red and orange dotting the horizon line: dawn. It might be the last one she saw on earth, because that was what she was leaving, her home…her life.
The end
Something about the ending is really sad…Please don't shoot me for straying off the warriors plotline! It just gets boring how they defeat the bad cat in a battle at the end of each book, and I love magic!
The sequel will be when I get 80 reviews! If it doesn't have enough, log out and review! Also, who ever reviews first to Demon's Jealousy gets to know Seapaw's and Hunterpaw's warrior names!!
