Lightningpaw opened his eyes and saw lush forest all around him. This definitely isn't my home, he thought, and plus, I'm not coughing! He looked to the left where Owlpaw had been sleeping, but there was no sign of her. He looked around the clearing, and none of his Clanmates were there. Suddenly, a dark brown pelt slithered out from the shadows.
"Lightningpaw." the mysterious cat mewed, "Come. I am one among your ancestors, so do not be afraid of me."
Lightningpaw put his first paw in front of him, then quickly snatched it back.
"Why should I trust you?" he snarled.
The other cat remained calm. "I am here to help you. Help you get your true mate."
Lightningpaw eyes widened. "I am too young!" he wailed.
"You may be, but do you love Owlpaw enough to become her mate now?" he slurred.
Lightningpaw nodded, then regretted it.
"Okay." the other cat meowed. "I'm Sedgetail, your mother's father, okay?"
Lightningpaw nodded again.
"I......" Sedgetail carried off.
"You....?" the younger cat leaned in.
"I once was in love as an apprentice too, and the cat I loved was called Yarrowpaw, and she was killed before she became a warrior." Sedgetail stared at Lightningpaw with longing blue eyes, and locked gazes with him.
"You.... loved her?" Lightningpaw pressed.
Sedgetail nodded, and then flicked his tail as if to summon another cat....
Lightningpaw hopped up at the sight of a bright yellow she cat bounding towards him.
"I am Yarrowpaw." she exclaimed.
Lightningpaw perked his ears. "I love Sedgetail just as you love your Owlpaw." she trailed off.
"We will meet you in your dreams every night." one of the cats slurred. "And may StarClan light your path!"
