Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors. So, I'm doing lots of chapters for this, all leading up to the big finale. Feel free to ask for any song you guys want, and with which character. Because I forgot it before, this is dedicated to Mellifluent Melancholy, because she is like a sister to me. The Dovewing to my Ivypool, if you will (but I haven't betrayed her yet, and she's not part of a mysterious prophecy).
Graystripe was helping sort through all of the unnecessary files on the school computer. But he was having way too much fun looking through all of the security footage from way back when. There was even footage of a young Yellowfang and a young Raggedpelt kissing! Ew. Then, he saw it. Silverstream's audition tape. Graystripe's throat closed up. Silverstream was his ex. But they didn't break up. They had been taking a walk with her cousins, Stormfur and Feathertail, when this huge truck came careening out of nowhere. Silverstream quickly pushed Graystripe, Stormfur and Feathertail out of the way and to safety, but the truck smacked square into her. There was so much blood. Cinderpelt, who had trained with Yellowfang at the nurse's office, had tried to help, but Silverstream had lost too much blood. She died. Graystripe clicked play. Silverstream, looking young, was standing before Crookedstar this time.
"Hi, I'm Silverstream," she began nervously. "And I'll be singing Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons." Graystripe gasped. That was too prophetic. Silverstream had died in a pool of blood, saving his blood. She cleared her throat, and began.
I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes
And I take it in
I'm bleeding out
I'm bleeding out for you, for you.
When the day has come
That I've lost my way around
And the seasons stop and hide beneath the ground
When the sky turns gray
And everything is screaming
I will reach inside
Just to find my heart is beating
Oh, you tell me to hold on
Oh, you tell me to hold on
But innocence is gone
And what was right is wrong
'Cause I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is to bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes
And I take it in
And I'm bleeding out
I'm bleeding out for you (for you)
When the hour is nigh
And hopelessness is sinking in
And the wolves all cry
To fill the night with hollering
When your eyes are red
And emptiness is all you know
With the darkness fed
I will be your scarecrow
You tell me to hold on
Oh you tell me to hold on
But innocence is gone
And what was right is wrong 'Cause I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is to bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes
And I take it in
And I'm bleeding out
I'm bleeding out for you, for you.
I'm bleeding out for you (for you)
I'm bleeding out for you (for you)
I'm bleeding out for you (for you)
I'm bleeding out for you
'Cause I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is to bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes
And I take it in
And I'm bleeding out
I'm bleeding out for you, for you.
The tape ended. Graystripe wiped his eyes. He touched two of his fingers to his lips, then pressed them to Silverstream's frozen face, her eyes blue and bright.
"I'll never forget you, Silverstream," he murmured. Just then, Millie came in, smiling at him.
"Are you ready to go?" She asked. Graystripe nodded, stood up, and wrapped an arm around his girlfriend's waist. Silverstream was his past, something he would cherish. Millie, however, was his future. Graystripe knew that Silverstream, wherever she was, was happy for him.
"Yeah," he answered. "I'm ready. Finally."
What did you guys think? I chose Bleeding Out A) Because it rocks, and B) Because Silverstream, as mentioned many times "bled her life out on Sunningrocks". So please, review, and tell me what you think.
