Chapter 8 is HERE! Thus far I feel like I have grown as a writer writing this story, 'even though not many people read it' I am happy to say I am proud of this mess.

The dawn trickled through the brambles covering the den, as SwiftPaw awoke. He was still tired from last night's argument, but now he knew what he had to do. He lifted his head up and opened his eyes slowly. he looked around ready to get up, but suddenly he realized he was not at camp. He looked around at his surrounding's more closely, he saw a shape. Then he saw more cats, around the figure. Then he realized these were the cats he had met in his dream the day before.

"Hello!" he called out, no response but they were still coming closer to him. He could see the cats closer now. He remembered the muscular tom from before, he seemed to be scrawnier now. The other of the two kits looked fine, he realized that they were probably trying to give most of their food to the mother so she could feed kits, who luckily looked fine.

Then he looked at the young apprentice? He was no longer young; he was a brown looking tom. Was this even the same apprentice, he looked much older, it was like he switched bodies. Switched body's! Now he realized it this cat had switched bodies with someone, but it was not him. He suddenly heard a voice, "Go now, seek the True Tree.

He suddenly woke, the chill of the night cooling him down from the warm field he was in. He suddenly stood up, his body jerked around on its own, he was so very confused, he just wanted a normal cat life, ads normal as a cat's life gets. He pawed, or his body told him to paw MaplePaw up.

"hey body stop it; she shouldn't come with me." His body obviously did not care. MaplePaw shifted around and started waking up, she murmured in her sleep. Well I guess I must wake her up, SwiftPaw thought.

He pawed MaplePaw until she got a nasty look on her face. "What is it…." She said in a Groggy voice. "I want to sleep SwiftPaw…" SwiftPaws paw bonked MaplePaws head. "Ugh, what is it." She slowly got up from her resting position, waiting to be handed information.

"We have to leave, now." He said in a sterner tone then 'I want you to wake up so we can a midnight stroll'. MaplePaw just blinked at him for a second, compiling her thoughts.

"Wait what? Why now?" SwiftPaw just looked at her like she had done something stupid. "What is it?" SwiftPaw sighed, and then spoke.

"We need to leave now, or we will not even be able to go." MaplePaw gave a face that said to SwiftPaw, I am so stupid.

SwiftPaw got up the quickest, but MaplePaw wabbled up. They started heading for the entrance, but someone was there, they could not make out who it was in the darkness, but it whispered something in SwiftPaws ear, even though she was two fox lengths away.

Go to the moonpool… the voice said, then the figure was gone MaplePaw and SwiftPaw, were getting nervous, they was the cat on duty, he was asleep, they called him sleeping silver, because he slept on duty all the time, and his name was SilverFoot. They raced past SilverFoot, him only, shifting around from time to time.

When they came out to the entrance of the camp, MaplePaw said, "Where Next?" SwiftPaw knew where they were going
