Warriors: Losttail's Prophecy

Ch.4

(Cat above is Rabbitstar)

"You'll only be here longer if you keep wiggling." Losttail mewed, as Snowpaw winced at the dock leaves she put on his scratches. The white cat had been attack by a kittypet while out hunting.

"There,"Losttail meowed. "Try to stand up but move slowly."

Snowpaw slowly rose to his paws. Ferretclaw slipped into the den."How is he?" He asked.

"He'll be fine." Losttail told him. Just let him rest for a couple of days and he should be fine to train after that."

Ferretclaw nodded and padded away.
"Thanks, Losttail." Snowpaw mewed as he slowly made his way to the apprentices den.
A moment later, Mudpaw can running up to her.

"Losttail, I need some mouse bile. Grayshade has some ticks he wants me to look at."

Losttail padded back to her den and got the mouse bile. "Here you go. And remember don't lick your paws; go and wash them in the river."

Mudpaw nodded and padded toward the elder's den. Barktooth walked over and greeted her. "Hey Losttail, Rabbitstar wants to see you."he told her.

Losttail nodded and padded to Rabbitstar's den. She walked in and found Berryseed sitting beside him.

"Losttail, has Starclan told you anything about the Dark Forest?"Rabbitstar asked her.

Losttail nodded. "A few moons ago, StarClan spoke to me."

"A few moons ago?"Berryseed asked. "What did they say?"

"Silver of silver, shines in the light, takes away fear, burns out the fright. A medicine cat coated in this fragile light shall show us the path, making it bright."

"Berryseed, do you have any idea what it means?"Rabbitstar asked the bengal tom.

Berryseed let out a sigh. "I'm sorry, I don't. I'll talk to StarClan about it."

Rabbitstar glanced at Losttail. "You may go now. I need to speek with Berryseed alone."

"I'm sorry I didn't speak of the prophecy earlier." Losttail dipped her head to the two cats and padded out. Nighthowl padded up to her with Mistpaw at his heels.

"Tigerseed's on a patrol and she wants me to take Mistpaw out. Do you want to come?"he asked her.

Losttail shrugged. "Sure. I need to get some more chervil and poppy seeds."

She followed Nighthowl through the horse tunnle, Mistpaw padding energetically beside her. Once Nighthowl stopped, Losttail padded to the best place chervil and poopy seeds grew.
She gathered plenty and headed back. Nighthowl and Mistpaw were both in a hunter's crouch and Nighthowl murmured into Mistpaw's ear.

"Remember, stay low to the ground, light on your paws and stay quiet."

Mistpaw kneaded the ground. "Right. Low to the ground, light on paws, and quiet." She echoed.

Losttail lied down and watched the two. A small mouse scurried out of the bushes with a seed in its small paws. Nighthowl stayed where he was as Mistpaw crept forward. The mouse lifted its head and before it could escape, Mistpaw sprang and killed it with a swift bite to the neck. She picked it up and padded proudly back to Nighthowl.

"Good catch." He praised her.

Once they caught more, the three headed back to camp.

"Good job, Mistpaw," Tigerseed greeted them."I promise we'll go out training tomorrow."

Mistpaw nodded and dashed off. Losttail said goodbye to the two warriors and padded to the medicine cat's den. Berryseed sat in the back, sorting herbs. She walked up to him and placed the herbs at his paws.

"Good, we were running low on poppy seeds." He mewed. "Grayshade's been having trouble sleeping at night."

"And I got some more chervil in case Shrewfall's stomach get worse."

She looked at Berryseed and saw a troubled
look in his eyes. "Have you been thinking about the prophecy?"she aked.

Berryseed nodded. "But it's not too clear. Hopefully Starclan will tell us more at the next meeting."
