Chapter 6
The Prophacy
And another long chapter, yay!
Normally Baillie's dreams were good, and allowed her to be relived from the hardships in her life. She had never had a bad dream, so nothing had prepared her for this.
Baillie was in a forest, but it wasn't like the west forest, it was different. The forest had less light then the one she was used to, meaning that its trees had thicker leaves, and, although it was a dream, it smelled much different; it smelled more of mold and decay then of the fresh grass and prey smell that she was used to. Another thing that was of was she felt like there was a pain in her leg, unlike any pain she had felt before. The last thing was the fact that she wasn't alone.
There was a small, lean cat in front of her. It had the structure of a female and a few other things that told her the cat wasn't a male. The she-cat had a calico coat, but instead of the usual white, tan, and black, this cat was dark blue, pink, and green with shining light green eyes.
The multi-colored she-cat finally spoke.
"Hello Baillie."
"Um… hello? How do you know my name?"
"I'm a very smart cat, dear, and I have been waiting for this moment for a very long time."
"Uh… What?"
"For your prophecy." The she cat meowed satisfactorily.
"What's a pro-"Baillie was cut off by the she-cat.
"Hush, dear, I do not have much time." The she-cat hurried. "Baillie, in the dreaded days of pain and hunger your life will be put in the skillful yet caring paws of a crystal cloud."
"What do you mean?"
"This is like hunting my dear, you will wait and wait until the right moment comes and then you will understand it."
"What else do you know?"
"I know much more, my dear, more than you will be able to understand."
"Then explain it to me!"
"I am very sorry, but if I tell you too much you will allow this knowledge to affect your future decisions and some of those decisions will alter the future, and I will not be the one to cause those decisions, whether they are for the better or the worse." Said the she-cat with great wisdom.
"Who are you?"
"I am Hummingstar"
"Can I tell anyone about this?"
"You may tell the first you meet that, like me, shares the namesake of the stars, and they, under the power of Silverpelt, shall decide who else shall know." Said Hummingstar.
"Just remember, In the days of pain and hunger, your life will be put in the hands of a crystal cloud." Hummingstar meowed as she faded into unknown darkness. Suddenly
Baillie awoke; she was panting heavily, and was very confused about what to do next.
