Blazepelt padded quietly out of camp, her ears pricked for any sounds of pawsteps. Her fur was soaked from the pouring rain, which was coming down very hard. She sighed for a moment and sat next to a puddle to rest.

Her eyes flickered to the puddle, and what she saw made her heart skip a beat. Instead of her normal calico pelt, the reflection was a black she-cat, with gleaming red eyes. Blood surrounded her jaws.

Blazepelt gasped and leaped back. She collided with a rock, and her head hit the ground hard. She opened her eyes to see a star filled forest. The sky was clear, and she could feel soft breath on her back. She turned around slowly, and to her shock, she saw Firestar.

"Firestar? What are you doing here? You're not a RiverClan cat!" Blazepelt gasped, her eyes wide.

Firestar didn't reply, he just gave a flick of his tail; a signal for Blazepelt to follow. Blazepelt rose to her paws and slowly padded after Firestar.

"Firestar, are you here to show me something?" Firestar stopped.

"Yes." he meowed, voice cracking with what sounded like sadness.

"Look closer at your reflection, Blazepelt. The planets and stars are growing closer; the time has almost come." He nodded at the lake, which was where they had stopped.

Blazepelt looked, and once more she saw the strange cat. She blinked, confused and nervous.

"Firestar, who is this cat?" Meowed Blazepelt. Firestar turned away.

"Nightshade." He murmured, so quiet that Blazepelt almost missed it. Firestar's figure started to fade.

"Beware, the cats of Shadow, the wolves of Night!" His eyes gleamed for a moment before Blazepelt awoke with a start. Heart pounding, she moaned.

"I want a normal dream for once." She grumbled angrily. Yet she knew she had to get in touch with the others, but one question still bothered her.

Who were the wolves of Night? She assumed that the 'cats of Shadow' was ShadowClan.

But the wolves of Night? She had never heard of it before. Who were they? She had managed to come up with one idea though.

She hated it, but she suspected it was true.

The Dark Forest had returned.

Hi guys! Sorry I haven't posted in awhile, I wasn't quite at home… Anyway, If Chapter 7 was confusing, I'm really sorry. I had, like, 0 IDEAS FOR IT SO YEAH. Chapter 8 will be a whole lot better; hopefully we'll see some more of Raincloud, Snowfoot, the other chosen animals, and maybe even some Wolves of Night. :) I hope you guys enjoyed. As always, tell me your suggestions (and criticism) so I know what I'm doing. Thanks, and be sure to keep reading!
