Everything went black; the only thing she remembered was Bracken jumping into the river after her. She woke at something started dragging her out onto a sandy ground. She turned to see Bracken panting beside her. When he saw Goldenpaw's eyes open, he scrambled to his paws.
"You're alive!" He screeched in happiness. Bracken was only around two moons older than her, but she had always despised him because his barn cat heritage. She struggled to her paws only two fall down again. "What the crap was that?!?!" Goldenpaw hissed.
He shook his head, "I don't know, but I just couldn't let you die." He said with embarrassment and love in his eyes. Then he walked over, or likely crawled over, and curled up next to her. She looked at him and thought, 'how did I not see that when he was always following me around when I was alone?' Then pushed the thought to the back of her head.
"Thank you." Goldenpaw whispered and then laid her head down on her paws to sleep. Soft Blackness engulfed her, and then she woke to see herself in the sandy hollow at four trees. Two starry cats sat in front of her mouthing something, she didn't know what, but they were definitely mouthing something.
"What do you want!?!" She hissed, and then noticed something flowing towards her. 'RATS!!!!' She yowled in dismay, but the cats just stood there. She shook her head and started running for Shadowclan territory, but her eyes got huge to see the rats were surrounding her. She was once again engulfed into wiggling darkness; accept the scent of rats was hanging threatingly in the air.
She jumped to her paws, only to realize that it was nighttime and there was no rats around. "What's wrong?" Bracken mewed from beside her. "Nothing." Goldenpaw replied, shaking the memories of last night's dream away. She sat still and welcomed the first lights of dawn to warm her now dried pelt. "How are we suppose to get back to are homes. She asked when it was near sun high. "I don't know…." He replied.
