Ok, laziness rules over me ulitmatley, so it's already afternoon, lol.
Goldenpaw settled down to eat a crunchy moth, all that Creampetal had said still wavered in her mind, and no matter how much she tried, the thoughts could not be pushed away. "Come on!"
Shadowleaf called, "We're gonna learn fighting today bee brains, hurry up." Goldenpaw warfed down her food quickly and rushed after her mentor with Aquapaw and Blackpaw following.

"Attack." Shadowleaf mumbled towards a hesitant Blackpaw, "B-but…you didn't teach me anything." Shadowleaf let out a growl, "Do as I say! You will be fine hornet hide, why would I hurt you?"
Aquapaw watched worriedly biting her lower lip as Blackpaw lunged at Shadowleaf. But Shadowleaf steadily moved to the side and simply commented, "Get up, and go faster, try to touch me."
Over and over again, repeating the same actions the two he-hamsters went, each time Blackpaw missed, and each time Shadowleaf would say how bad he was and how he need improvement.
"Since Blackpaw can't learn correctly I doubt you two will either." Aquapaw wanted to let out a snarl, yet she was afraid, and she went up to her mentor with fear rippling in her movements.
"Well?" Aquapaw leaped at him, but to her dismay, only landed on the grass of the forest. "Again." Aquapaw jumped at him, about to aim with her hamster claws, when he stepped to the side.
"Goldenpaw next." Aquapaw squeaked softly in an upset tone and ambled to Blackpaw, who was on the ground panting slightly. Shadowleaf stared at the last one up and waited for her to do something.
Goldenpaw sat there squinting at her mentor not moving a muscle. They went on for that, until finally, she pounced on him, Shadowleaf was a bit surprised and not ready, but that was enough for her.
When Shadowleaf stepped to the side at the last minute, she twisted around and poked his fur with her claw, "Got you." Goldenpaw announced quietly, hoping Shadowleaf wouldn't do anything to her.
His jaws snapped open, about to throw out an insult when a familiar face pushed out of the bushes, it was Pearlstar, "I was checking to see if everything was well." He said eyeing Shadowleaf.
"But it seems everyone's fine, please go back and rest, it is Firetail and the others turn to practice fighting out here, it is nearly night." Shadowleaf nodded and brought his apprentices back to camp.
Goldenpaw smiled contently, all was fine now. She pawed to the fresh-kill pile and selected tasty sugar ants for a snack. She nibbled in silence and watched the twinkling stars appear in the sky.
Goldenpaw yawned sleepily and cuddled inside her nest, hoping once again for the sands of dream to overcome her and let her sleep in peace. Just maybe…she could see Creampetal again…
"Goldenpaw…awaken." Goldenpaw's eyes snapped open. A beautiful Cream colored she-hamster stood in-front of her with a weak smile, "It is I Creampetal, young one, and I still have more to tell you."
"As you know, there's a monster out there, but there is a greater danger, far greater then the forest has ever seen, and we need you, you and someone else. For this is the prophecy:
The hour will come
When the darkest arrives
When the gentle leaf will fall
And when it is replaced by blood
But the Ice and Sun will defeat it,
And the forest will be at peace.
But before all is right
Lives will fall, and so shall blood."
And with the mysterious words ringing in Goldenpaw's mind, Creampetal faded away into air. Flames leapt at her and a golden sun stung her eyes. Blood came out of nowhere and soon washed over everything.
It had quenched the fire, until only ashes remained, and had heavily blanketed the sun, so that now it would shine with a deathly crimson hue. Goldenpaw gasped aloud as blood started dripping from the sky.
Only in small rain drops at first, but then it poured and it covered all she could see, it ran between her toes, and rose to her waist, but soon, blood gushed above her head, and with panic, Goldenpaw swallowed it all down.
"Is this the end?"
MUHA! You'll have to see what happens next, take it away Sunny!
