8D Yellowfang's death scene....?! ^^;
Chapter word count: 461
I can't
"I can't…. survive any longer…." Yellowfang panted to herself as smoke surrounded her in the burning ThunderClan camp.
You must, Yellowfang. Please…. your life…. it shouldn't be over yet, murmured the voices; the voices of StarClan.
"But…. my time…. is coming. And it's almost here…. now," Yellowfang sighed.
No! Yellowfang!
"I'm sorry, StarClan…. I have…. betrayed…. you…." Yellowfang was getting weaker: she could feel it in her lungs.
No, you have not betrayed us; fight harder! Fireheart is coming to rescue you!
"But…. he might not…. rescue me…. soon…. enough…."

Have you ever wanted something?
That was out of your reach; that you could never get?
Wise ones can tell the tales….
The tales of wisdom, fear, strength, and courage
These tales have guided many a kit
They come in many different forms
Stories, songs, poetry, and announcements
Quotes, anecdotes, and posted in forums
Fireheart was like a son to me. He was everything that Brokenstar wasn't. Kind, loyal, and brave…. my own son was never like that…. all he wanted was power. He didn't even care about the kits of his own Clan, for StarClan's sake! If he had taken over the forest, those kits would have made fine warriors! Absolutely all of them would have made fine warriors! Even Blossomkit, who I heard that at one point just wanted to be a medicine cat!
But who am I questioning?
Wisdom cannot revive the dead.
Wisdom can only be passed on
To prevent the same mistakes
To prevent the ones that happened before.
As I wheezed out my last few breaths, I knew that, despite StarClans' protesting, they were coming for me. But…. why? Why couldn't I have been there to watch my "adopted" son growing up? He is a hero…. to ThunderClan…. and to all the Clans.
But who am I kidding?
StarClan is great.
They're kind, loyal, and nice,
And I'm glad I live among these cats.
They are all wise. They are all kind.
We watch over the cats.
And cats worship us.
They worship our wisdom, most of all.
Much as I wish that I hadn't died, that's what happened; I am here in StarClan now. But I am happy. And safe. I can watch Firestar lead his Clan and take good care of his mate and kits all I want…. I am just so proud of him!
I can't stay here any longer, though; I must go meet Spottedleaf by the Moonpool…. It is the half moon tonight and I have to meet Jaypaw.
I can't stay. Just as I couldn't hang on…. just as I couldn't hang on to life, just as Fireheart rescued me….
Oh, well; at least I got to say an official good-bye….
