Flamefur's Vision

Chapter 5

 "The visions are getting stronger," Flamefur said to Bluefire.

He nodded and mused for a moment,"Maybe that means it's almost time."

 Chills ran up Flamefur's spine as she remembered her vision she had last night. "Whenever the battle happens I just hope that our Clan will be ready."

"Yes, everyone in Fire Clan may think we're crazy but I don't know what I'd do without a Clan as great as Fire Clan."

 Flamefur was about to reply when she saw another vision- it was stronger than ever this time. She could smell the reek of blood and she could feel the sting of wounds that covered her body. She felt blood on her own paws but she couldn't look down. She couldn't move at all. All she could see was the raging battle in front of her. Suddenly, a large tom raced towards Flamefur with his claws unsheathed and teeth bared. Flamefur struggled desperately to unsheathe her own claws and get in position to fight but her limbs wouldn't move. Flamefur closed her eyes to prepare for what was about to come but nothing came to her.

 When she opened up her eyes again she was laying in Cherrywhisker's den and Bluefire was hovering over her. His eyes lit up when Flamefur began to stir. "Are you alright?"

 Flamefur groaned as she sat up. "I am now. The vision got stronger this time."

"I can see that." Bluefire said, humorously.

 Suddenly, Cherrywhisker entered the den and she purred at the sight of Flamefur being awake.

"Thank Star Clan you're up!"

"It's almost time."

"You really think so?"

 Flamefur nodded sadly.

 "I'm gonna go send out a border patrol." Bluefire said, then he stood up and left the den. When he left Cherrywhisker turned to Flamefur with a somber look on her  face.

"Just be safe out there."

"I will."

 Dark clouds covered the sky like a layer of snow. Flamefur quickly finished her squirrel then headed to her den. She sat grooming herself, feeling worried about what would happen the next time she had a vision- If there was a next time.

 Flamefur shifted around in her nest restlessly. She couldn't sleep so she stood up and left the warriors' den as quietly as she could. The dark clouds still covered the sky but Flamefur guessed that in wouldn't start to storm til' later.

 As Flamefur started towards the camp's exit she saw movement in the corner of her eye. She turned to look, expecting to see a bird or squirrel. She saw the glimmer of eyes in the shadows around the camp. Her heart started beating rapidly- She could smell Water Clan!

"We're being attacked!"
