Echostar's Wish

by Mistsplashdraws

Born blind in one eye, Echokit's only wish is to be normal as those around her tease her, saying she'd only be good as a medicine cat. Led by determination, she becomes a warrior apprentice, but struggles to prove her worth. Watch as she grows up from a flawful young cat into a determined leader, with many challenges along the way. (terrible at summary's sorry) Rated T.

Chapter Seventeen

"Greetings, Echopaw." Echopaw whipped around in fright to reveal a black and grey tom standing in front of her. Why am I in this dark forest? she thought to herself. Oh it stinks of rotting bones. "Don't be scared," the tom meowed, "I'm not here to hurt you."

"How do you know my name?" she challenged, her tail was lashing vigorously from side to side.

"Because Echopaw, I come from StarClan," he replied, "My name's Darkclaw."

"This is StarClan?" Echopaw tilted her head in confusion.

"It sure is, young warrior," Darkclaw meowed.

"Then why is it so dark?"

"Not all parts of StarClan are as beautiful as they say, young one," Darkclaw meowed.

"Oh," Echopaw meowed, "But why am I here? I'm not a medicine cat."

"Because young one, I've come to make you an offer," Darkclaw responded, "If you promise to come train here with me every night, then I'll gift you with all of the power you can get."

"What do you mean by train?" Echopaw was confused.

"I'll teach you to hunt and fight better so that you can be better than Berrypaw," Darkclaw told her, "and you'll be able to see out of your blind eye here, so in the real world it's normal."

"Then I accept," Echopaw meowed, "I'll visit every night."

"Good," Darkclaw purred.

StarClan don't tell me I've done something wrong. But then again, this is StarClan.

Only a very short chapter, but I hope it was interesting! Keep reviewing!
