Silverclaw's Memories

Its been a moon since my mother Silverclaw died. Now its just Icebreeze and my father Thistlestar.
My power has grown stronger, I almost turned into a wolf in front of Icebreeze! Should I tell him my secret? Not yet I guess. All I need to do is picture myself as a wolf for 5 seconds and I'll transform into one. There has to be a catch to everything right? So whats the bad side of my power?

"What are you doing staring at the water?" Icebreeze asked.

"Just... Lost in thought." I sighed.

"Wolfclaw cheer up, my mate is expecting kits!"

"Wonderful." I mumbled.

Thistlestar decided to join in on our conversation. "Did you know your mother had a gift of incredible fighting power from starclan itself?"

"Could we inherit it?" I wondered.

"Maybe."

I hated to keep secrets! I just had to tell my brother and sister about my power. "Follow me. I need to tell you something."

I led them into the forest. "I can turn into a wolf."

"Show us." Thistlestar was interested now.

I held the image of a wolf in my mind for 5 seconds. I was a wolf now.

"Thats incredible Wolfclaw!" Icebreeze mewed. "I have a powerish thing too I think. During leafbare I can do amazing things with snow, like control it and move it and all that."

Thistlestar just stared at his kits. "I don't know what to say! I'm so proud of both of you."

"BADGER ATTACK!" A patrol screeched as it was chased by 10 badgers. Now all of the badgers had surrounded the 4 cat patrol. We had to help!

"Get away from them you stinky crowfood!" I yowled.

All badgers turned to be. I had no chance of fighting them unless I was a wolf! "RUN BACK TO CAMP!" I told the terrified cats. Only my brother and father were left with me, now I could change into a wolf.

I took on 6 badgers and Icebreeze with Thistlestar were fighting 4 together.

"Wolfclaw we can't win!" Thistlestar growled.

Silverclaw appeared and hissed. "Get away from my family!"

She was fighting 8 of the remaining badgers single pawed! This was her fighting power? AMAZING! She finished off the last badger in one minute.

"Mom!" I purred. "Thank you for saving us."

"My pleasure." Silverclaw purred back. "I miss all of you." And she began to fade.

We headed back to camp and all cats raced towards us. "Did you get hurt?" "How did you kill them?" "Were they scary?"

Lilyheart came up. "Let them rest! If you have any injuries go to Tansyheart."

"Thank you Lilyheart" Thistlestar meowed. "Wolfclaw and Icebreeze do you have any injuries?"

We both shook our heads. "We'd like to take a walk in the forest."

"Sooooo can you show me your power?" I asked.

"I need snow." Icebreeze mewed.

"Whose your mate?"

"Lilyheart, shes the sweetest thing ever!" Icebreeze purred.

Who would be my mate? "Do you think I like anyone? Or anyone likes me?"

Icebreeze whispered "I think Oakfang has taken a liking to you."

"Really?" I never noticed him. "Me out of the other girls? Just... wow..."

We headed back to camp after a little bit of hunting and slept in the newly laid moss from the apprentices.

"Hey Wolfclaw, do you want to do a border patrol with me?" Oakfang asked.

"Just you two?" Icebreeze wondered suspiciously.

"Yes! Now we're leaving." I hissed to my brother.

Oakfang apologized "I'm sorry what happened back there, I just wanted to spend alone time with you."

"Of course that's fine, my brother's just overprotective." I assured.

"HELP!" A Riverclan warrior shrieked. Two apprentices were cornered by 5 foxes! One of them was already lying on the ground badly hurt.
