As your Shadow crosses mine
Snowkit yawned and looked around; he was in the place of stars. He stretched and looked around, sitting a few feet away was him mom.
He thought to call out to her, but something stopped him. She was talking to another cat, a young she cat.
"You know no matter how hard you try he will never be able to be a warrior." The she cat spoke.
"What! How can you say that Spottedleaf? I train him every day, and everyday he gets better, I don't care what you or Cinderpelt say he will be a warrior! He already is my little warrior…" her voice trailed off, and suddenly she looked worn and exhausted.
"I know this is hard for you Speckletail, this being your last kit." The cat called Spottedleaf had spoken again.
"You know nothing of how I feel! His own father barely comes to see him! You have no idea what it's like to live with such a decision." Snowkit backed away with fear, his mom was furious with this she cat and it was his entire fault!
"I know just as much as you do how to handle a hard decision!" Spottedleaf spat back her retort and then began to fade.
Speckletail also faded, back to her own dreams he assumed.
Snowkit quivered and padded around the bank where he stood. His paws hit water and he looked down at them, a puddle. Snowkit stared at the reflection that he saw, instead of a small kit that he normally saw he saw a strong and tall warrior, muscles strong, and eyes gleaming with ambition. Snowkit backed away, startled by the reflection.
A purr sounded from behind him. Snowkit whipped around and came face to face with a fluffy tom cat.
"That is your destiny you know, a brave little kit like you will one day be a brave warrior."
"Who-who are you?" Snowkit stuttered.
"No need to fear me young one, I am Featherwhisker, I was Thunderclan's medicine cat long before you were born. "
"That will never be me, you heard my mom and that stupid she cat, I am a burden." Snowkit stared down at his paws.
The tom let out a mrrww of amusement. "That stupid she cat was my apprentice, Spottedleaf, but no need to apologize little one. You are not a burden, and remember, no matter how hard things get, and no matter how abandoned you feel, I will always be with you."
With that everything began to fade around Snowkit. Featherwhisker faded into the mist and Snowkit awoke with a jolt.
Tawnykit was pawing his side. Her mouth was urging him to wake up. Snowkit sat up groggily and noticed that no one else was awake.
Tawnykit motioned with her tail for him to follow. They padded close to the thorns around camp, hiding in the shadows.
Suddenly Snowkit felt the vibrations of paws steps behind him; he glanced around and saw Bramblekit bundling after them. He slowed down to their pace once he caught up.
The three musketeers raced out of camp through the dirt place. They came to a clearing, where you could see the stars peering out above the trees. Snowkit felt a flick on his shoulder and he realized Tawnykit was talking to him.
She was pointing to the stars and saying some un heard words and would look down at Snowkit occasionally to see if he was listening. Snowkit just nodded his head whenever she would do that, and she would continue on.
The wind picked up and Tawnykit scooted closer to Snowkit, so that their pelts were touching, her warmness flooded into him, making him fill up with such happiness.
Bramblekit was on the other side of Tawnykit, but Snowkit took no notice to him, Tawnykit was the prettiest cat he had ever seen.
Suddenly Bramblekit got up and mewed something and raced back towards camp, Snowkit thought about following, but when Tawnykit didn't move he stayed too.
She mewed something gently, and not sure how to answer Snowkit just said "Someday we will be together." Tawnykit must have understood his muttered words, because her eyes lit up with happiness, and then she rubbed up against his cheek and bounded back towards camp, Snowkit followed a tail length behind. Today was the best night ever!
No matter what the future held Snowkit knew that everything would be okay, it always would be now.
