The thick darkness made the three cats uneasy of their surroundings, as they walked through the bare trees. " maybe we should head back," moonleaf, the moonclan medicine cat, suggested.
Goldstar halted to a stop. " no, we have come very far. And plus, it would be too much of a journey to get back. Look at Brackenpaw, She is already exhausted." Goldstar said.
And before moonleaf could protest, Goldstar waved her tail as a sign of silence.
" I'm so tired," Brackenpaw, moonleafs apprentice, moaned. " can we rest now?" She asked.
" not yet Brackenpaw, we have nearly made it." Goldstar pricked her ears. " I think I hear something." Goldstar flicked her tail for every cat to be silent. Moonleaf and Brackenpaw exchanged a glance and looked back at Goldstar.

" Brackenpaw,moonleaf, stay there." Goldstar crept closer to the tree, nearly stumbling over its gnarled roots. She then leapt without thinking.
