Woo! I'm finally updating! It's been a pretty long time since I last updated Dawnstar's Legacy. I bet it feel neglected. So I'm paying attention to it for this time.
Well, I did remake a one-shot that I made a while back, (aka, 8 chapters ago.) It's called The Rift Between Us. It's a song fic one-shot about Dawnpaw and Thunderpaw, so check it out.
This chapter is really short, but I'm too tired to write that much.

Dawnpaw opened her eyes suddenly and realized she was lying beside the lake. The stars still glittered overhead and the night was as silent as ever. The silvery she cat stood up onto her paws and walked the opposite direction of the lake, letting her paws carry her across the marshy ground and deeper into RiverClan territory. Trees and bushes started to dot around the territory as Dawnpaw closed in on the camp. The she cat nearly jumped up when the bushes rustled and Shinepaw burst out.
Shinepaw's blue-green eyes flashed with concern for her friend.
"Where did you go?" She asked. Dawnpaw let out a small sigh.
"I fell asleep by the lake when I was getting a drink." Dawnpaw mewed, acting embarrassed. Shinepaw twitched her whiskers in response.
"Silly frog brain! I know what will wake you up. Let's go to the island. The pine scent will do you good."
Dawnpaw smiled at her friend and followed her across the marshy ground that laced the tree bridge that led to the island. Being RiverClan cats, the two apprentices weren't the least bit bothered by the squishy mud that sunk into their paws as they walked to the bridge. To Dawnpaw, the island looked magical from the mainland. Insects buzzed eagerly in the darkness, like a calming ballade in Dawnpaw's ears. The moon outlined the entire island in a faint silvery wash, a phenomenon that always dazzled the silvery she cat.
Shinepaw hopped onto the fallen tree bridge with little effort. She gave her golden tabby pelt a shake before bouncing off onto the island ahead of her friend. Dawnpaw ran after Shinepaw, letting the pine scented breeze take her mind away from the dream she had moments prior. Soon the two she cats were chasing wildly after one another in the clearing that was usually reserved for gatherings. Dawnpaw and Shinepaw nipped and paw swiped playfully at one another in mock battles.
Catching her breath, Dawnpaw collapsed in pile of pine needles that were scattered across the grass. Shinepaw settled down next to her.
"That was fun, but I'm tired now. Ready to go back to camp?" Shinepaw asked, exhaustion lacing her mew. Dawnpaw shook her head.
"No, I think I'll stay out here for a little bit and look at the moon."
"Ok, but come back before some cat notices you're gone." Shinepaw said wisely. Dawnpaw watched the golden pelted apprentice pad through the pines back to RiverClan territory. The silvery she cat smiled to herself, thanking StarClan for a wonderful friend. But after she was back to her own thoughts, Dawnpaw brought herself back to the dream from StarClan.
Ok, so I'm part of something big, but I don't know what it is. Breezepaw knows, Blackwing knows, maybe I should ask them.
Dawnpaw padded through the pine trees, taking every sight, sound and scent. She thoroughly enjoyed the moments alone, giving her time to think about everything on her mind.
At least the night is pleasant.
The silvery she cat breathed in the cool, clean air and let out a contented sigh.
