Shadow collapsed on her side once she got to the camp. Night came out quickly from seeing his mate to find the shecat bleeding even more. Night's eyes widened as he saw her and called for Pebble to come and get her. Shadow breathed heavily trying to gain her vision back. It was already spotted and she was starting to loose consciousness. She was scared that she wouldn't get it in time.
"Brown... fox... help." She coughed out the three simple words hoping to get her point across. She coughed out a bit of blood as well.
That turned the two's attention back to her. She could hear them talking. They were saying something about the fox. Shadow could barely hear them as it was getting muffled out. Oh StarClan, please don't take me now. She wished to herself before closing her eyes.
Shadow woke back up in the bright place of StarClan. She quickly checked her own coat but did not see it covered in stars. Did that mean she was not dead yet? She saw her two mentors heading over to her quickly with worry.
"Shadow! Thank StarClan you are okay. You will recover but slowly. We will have to keep you here for a while." Sunwish said quickly nuzzling the young female. Leapingleaf stayed off to the side waiting for a turn.
"I'm glad you got away. We should let you rest but we had to show you something. It's really important." Leapingleaf said quickly and flicked his tail for the feline to follow him. Shadow tilted her head to the side and headed after her medicine mentor quickly.
"Don't worry, if it wasn't drastically important, we wouldn't show you this. It has something to do with two cats you are very close to. Three deaths that should never have happened either." Sunwish said with her head down. Shadow was worried about this now. She was the closest to Eaglepaw and Mud. What could have happened to them?
"Are they dead? Where is Eaglepaw? I want to see my sister if she's dead!" Shadow proclaimed frantically looking around for the light brown feline that she loved. Sunwish just shook her head and put her tail on Shadow's shoulder.
"Your sister is far from dead. No, she is part of the reason still. I hope that you can make more sense out of all of this. It could mean your real life this time." Sunwish said thoughtfully. Shadow pulled away quickly.
"My sister would never have killed anyone! She's the most innocent cat I know! Sure she loves to fight, but she knows that killing is against the warrior code." Shadow said shaking her head in disbelief. She would not believe that her only sister would actually kill cats without a warning or a cause.
"Shadow, come over here." Leapingleaf finally said flicking his tail once again. Shadow slowly padded next to the male and looked down to the small pool of water that showed the past.
What Shadow saw, she couldn't believe.
