At first everything seemed red then she started to see some grey limbs and then she saw... Cinderpaw's head. In front of a badger. A real badger. A real horrible giant bloody badger. A scream escaped Rainkit's lips as Dandelionkit ran top of a tree and the badger slashed at her herself. Everything went black but somehow she managed to leap at the badger, scratch it eyes out as it had done to Cinderpaw, bite it's throat and cling to it's fur until she drowned in the unconciousness.

So that was how dying feels like. A lot of pain pierced her body but especially her left hind leg. Soon it will be over and I'll be in StarClan. But it didn't end. She slowly opened her eyes only to close them again. Bright light shone right into her face. She peeked again under her eyelashes. This isn't StarClan. She thought. It's the medicine cat den. So that means..."I'm alive!" she bolted up to fall down and cry in agony. "Shush, shush. You must lie down," Creampaw, the medicine cat appretice approached. "Why?" Rainkit asked angrily. Creampaw pointed in the direction of her left hind leg. Or where it should have been.

Next three days for Rainkit was filled by agony, loss and grief. She cried herself to sleep and only woke up to eat and even then terrible thoughts came in her mind.

A moon had passed. Rainkit had learned how to walk almost properly without her leg. She moved back to nursery where she was alone in the dark. Other kits avoided her and she could hear them murmuring:"Monster" "Creep" and "Scary". Dandelionkit wasn't in th enursery with her. After she had escaped to the tree. She had stayed on one branch until the danger was gone. But then the branch broke and cracked Dandelionkit's scull. She was unconcious in the medicine cat den where Gillfeather and Creampaw tried their best to keep her alive. Blueflower couldn't talk to Rainkit either. She was dead. She had eaten deathberries because she thought that both of her kits will die. But they both were still alive. Still.
