Flowerpaw's eye opened from her dream. She looked out of the den, it was moning, not dawn!
"Oh no, Bumblefall needs me on morning patrol!" She moaned. She quickly licked her fur and went to find her mentor.
She saw the leader, Ashstar. "Ashstar! Did Bumblefall or you send out patrols yet?" She asked.
Ashstar didn't nod. "Yes, I've decided you can go for sunset patrol." She mewed.
Bumblefall was by the fresh-kill pile, and turned around. "Have any of you seen Darkeye? She never came back from Dawn patrol." He asked, not seeing his mate anywhere.
Ashstar and Flowerpaw didn't nod. "I haven't seen her come back." Ashstar said.
Flowerpaw gave a sniff."I scent WhiteClan! Real close!" Flowerpaw said.
They all turned to look at Peachstar, carrying Darkeye's dead 's eye popped open. "Darkeye is sleeping!" He moaned.
Peachstar came in, "We found Darkeye on our territory, with no other cat, and two of my apprentices, my deputy, and one of my warriors said she was out to kill me, so the border patrol killed her, and they shouldn't have done that. I am sorry for the lost of your warrior." She said, and dropped Darkeye onto the hard, cold ground.
Bumblefall had a oure hiss rise through his throat. "This shouldn't have happened! WhiteClan will pay for the lost of this warrior, they'll pay!" He hissed.
Ashstar looked at Bumblefall. "Be quiet, Bumblefall." Then she turned back. "I see, and Darkeye shouldn't have been on your territory, but if this happens again, WhiteClan will have to pay for it. You may leave, Peachstar." Ashstar said.
Peachstar nodded. She started walking away, then turned around, "It won't, Ashstar, it won't." She mewed, and headed on back.
Flowerpaw looked at Darkeye's lifeless body. "I'll sit vigil for her." She nodded. "So will I. Flowerpaw and I will have her burial ceremony now." Bumblefall said.
Ashstar nodded. She sat on the highrock. "Darkeye is now dead, she was a great warrior of BerryClan, we will grieve for her and we won't forget about this warrior." She mewed, and jumped back down. Flowerpaw dug up the dirt and laid her in with Bumblefall's help.
They put the dirt back on and started to sit. Flowerpaw became sleepy, and well asleep.
Flowerpaw woke up in a foggy area. "Were am I?" She asked.
A dark cat apeared, "Its me, Darkeye, and tell Bumblefall I miss him." She mewed.
Flowerpaw nodded. "So... why are we talking?" She asked.
Darkeye stood still. "StarClan has choosen you to complete a prophecy with two other cats from diffrent Clans to make a new Clan. Go to the Moonpool tomorrow." Darkeye said.
Flowerpaw nodded. "I will, Darkeye. I will. " She promised to the dead BerryClan warrior.
Darkeye's vision faded away. "Bye, Darkeye." Flowerpaw said.
"Flowerpaw! Flowerpaw! The vigil is over, and its time for patrol!" She heard someone say.
Flowerpaw looked up and saw Bumblefall. "Who is coming?" She asked.
Bumblefall smiled, and said, "Clawtear." He mewed. "We have not much cats coming since we've lost a warrior." He moaned, and looked at the buried place were his mate was laying.
"Bumblefall, Darkeye spooke to me in my dream. She says she misses you." Flowerpaw said as they went out.
Bumblefall nodded. "I'm glad she still loves me." He said.
Flowerpaw looked at the sun, then him. "She's always going to love you! Even if someone is your new mate." She said.
Bumblefall paused, and looked at Flowerpaw. "I'm not getting another mate. Darkeye is my mate. Though she's dead, I'm never getting another one!" He hissed. Then he continued walking.
Flowerpaw nodded. As she came by, a branch fell down from a tree and landed on Flowerpaw's paws. "OUCH!" She screamed.
Bumblefall grabbed Flowerpaw and carried her to the Medicine Cat den, she could tell that Bumblefall couldn't lose her.
As her got to the Medicine Cat den, he let go of Flowerpaw. "Firefrost! A branch fell on Flowerpaw's paws, and they're bleeding a bit." He said.
Firefrost looked. "Flowerpaw! I'm so sorry." He mewed.
Flowerpaw nodded. "Its fine, help my paws. I don't want my warrior name to be Nopaws." She joked.
Firefrost grabbed horsetail and cobwebs. He rapped cobwebs on each paw and dipped some horsetail into it. "How does it feel now, Flowerpaw?" he asked.
"Fine.." She said. She thought about Darkeye's message and saw Traveling herbs. She needed them. She looked at Firefrost and mewed, "Is it okay for me to take some traveling herbs? Tomorrow I have to go to the Moonpool, because I'm in a prophecy." She mewed.
Firefrost nodded. "I'll go with you as far as we're out of Clan territory." Flowerpaw smiled. "I'll come here at dawn." She mewed and set off for the Apprentices den.
