Strong winds ruffled the moor as the rain battered the ground. Two she-cats, one with a light grey pelt with some cream and brown patches, was laying in her nest next to an ash tree, her pelt dripping with water, but she didn't seem to care. Next to her was a cream she cat with white underbelly, paws, and ears. She had red and brown patches and a long grey stripe down her back. She was lazily clawing up grass, her paws were muddy, she flicked some off occasionally.

There was a soft creak from the tree next to them, but the two she-cats didn't  hear it through the rain. When the creak finally got loud enough so that the she-cats could hear it, it was too late, the roots of the tree ripped up from the ground suddenly, and it fell onto the two she-cats, before they could even try to get away. There was a loud snap as their bones broke, the cream she-cat yowling in pain.

A young cream and white colored tom kit, about 4 moons, herd the yowl, rushing to the she-cats, his eyes widened as there were dying quickly. "Honeypaw! Birdpaw!" He was trying to shift the tree, but it was to no avail, their breathing was slowing. Suddenly, Honeypaw looked at him. "The running hare and the ghostly bird will bring strong winds," She said, looking at the small kit, "driving away the echo..." She said, before her amber eyes glazed over and her head fell, her breathing slowed to an end. The kit looked at Birdpaw, she was barely breathing.

"Stay determined, young one. You can't save me, nor Honeypaw. You need to save your Clanmates though. Save them from Echostar," Birdpaw said, before she collapsed as well. Suddenly, there spirits, there fur of starlight, came out of there bodies. They looked at him warmly, before they both ascended up to StarClan.

"We're coming Sparrowpaw! We'll be warriors with you!" Birdpaw said, as they ascended into the air before they disappeared into the sky, their pelts blending in. The young kit saw two stars appear in the sky, and was amazed at what he saw.

"Harekit! What are you doing over there! Come here now!" a white she-cat with cream spots called from the nursery, and Harekit ran back to his mother, looking back at the bodies of Honeypaw and Birdpaw before padding inside.
