Chapter 3

Blossomkit's P.O.V

Hey guys, sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. I was just busy with the holidays going on and all. So anyway, I am making a longer story than usual! Get ready, cause here we go!

I have no idea why, but I was angry with amberkit ever since the gathering. (Even though it was only a few days ago) My sisters and I went out hunting with our father, flamewhisker, and things didn't feel right.

While I was walking around, daydreaming about what it would be like to live in a clan, I stopped abruptly to hear rustling in the bush behind me. I knew I was alone because my father told me to separate from the group so I wouldn't be bothered by my sisters. I spun around to stand face to face with a riverclan warrior.

"Hi." He laughed as I stepped back in surprise.

"Um…hi." I managed to say out of all my confusion.

" Who are you? Why are you here, and how did you get here?" I added. Those were only 2 of the many questions I had stuck in my head.

"I'll tell you later, follow me!" he mewed rather loudly.

"Wait, follow you?" I questioned." I don't even know who you are! I only know that you're from riverclan!" he blushed. This made me even more confused than I already was.

"Just-well…you can trust me, ok?" the warrior said staring straight in to my eyes. The cat started to walk forward but I found myself frozen and blushing.

"Are you coming, or not?" He asked playfully. I ran up to the riverclan cat and stared at him for a moment, his amber eyes staring back in to my blue ones. I looked forward and asked, "Where are we going?" The grey warrior's expression turned back to normal.

"I…I'll explain on the way. Come on!" I ran through the trees with him. When we slowed our pace, he started to tell me the things I wanted to know.

"So, my name's stormfur," When I was about to tell him my name he just silenced me with a flick of his tail.

"I already know your name. I was AT that gathering and couldn't help but notice you and the other two cats when you walked in. you were blossomkit, right?" I nodded. I was also very surprised he knew so much about my sisters and I. of course, everything was revealed at the gathering.

"I…" he took a deep breath. "I'm taking you to the forest." Stormfur said quickly. I had a look of shock on my face.

"But… why?" I asked. "Why me, are you taking my sisters too?" He laughed at this.

"You are going to join riverclan." He explained to me. I was suddenly surprised and excited.

"I am?!" I squealed. He now had a worried look on his face.

"Maybe, you have to prove to them that you will stay loyal to the clan." Stormfur told me.

"Oh," he started to talk again. "I forgot to ask, how old are you?" ugh. My age?

"I'm 10 moons old." I answered. He told me he was the same age and we told each other about ourselves. When we finished laughing and talking, I realized it was almost sunhigh and we had to get a move on. We got going and I suddenly remembered what a long trip it was to the forest. I sighed and looked at the woods ahead of me.

"This is gonna be a looooong trip." Stormfur and I said together. I don't know why, but I feel like I can tell him anything. Maybe I-no, I can't. I CAN'T! I sighed again and stared in to his warm amber eyes.

Stormfur's P.O.V

"STORMFUR?!" Some cat was calling my name. I opened my eyes and looked around, worried that some cat was in trouble. I was on an empty moor with a grey sky.

"STORMFUR WHERE ARE YOU?!" This cat was a female, and she sounded desperate and hurt. It started raining and when I looked up, I realized it wasn't raining, it was snowing. The snow only fell in a single place, which was far away. I ran to it, which took forever.

"STORMFUR, I NEED YOU!" the voice made me cringe. I reached the small area where it snowed, but when I got there, the snow stopped falling. I gasped and looked at what was on the ground in front of me. The snow had fallen upon a she-cat with a white pelt and crystal blue eyes. She was crying and had cuts on her throat and belly. Her mouth had blood trickling out of it and her ear was torn. She turned her head to look at me with eyes that were filled with tears and, surprisingly, love.

"Stormfur, I'm sorry if I disappointed you." She whispered softly in between gasps of air. I suddenly realized I loved her too, but I didn't even know her. Wait. The memories came back to me. I remembered the gathering and the 3 cats that "intruded". Among them was the cat that was now dying in front of me, blossomkit. I gasped and looked down.

"Blossomkit, I'm sorry, you haven't disappointed me. I-I…"I trailed off. She weakly laughed and said, "My name isn't blossomkit anymore, remember? I-I'm…" Now she trailed off, but for a different reason. Her head fell back down and the glow in her eyes died.

"No...No." I whispered. I bent down closer to say something but she disappeared. I felt tears stream down my face as everything went black.

WOW. Intense, I know.

"Stormfur?" I felt excited when I heard my name only to find out it was my sister, feathertail, not blossomkit. I sighed and sat up to see feathertail smiling and staring at me.

"Come on, mousebrain, you're on the dawn patrol with me today!" My sister bounded off as I sat there sighing, trying to figure out what my dream meant. The images flashed through my mind and I knew I had to find blossomkit and save her.

"I will find you." I whispered. "And I will save you."
