SECOND CHANCES: CH1 I stood gazing up at the high wall of the gorge. Cats were bustling around me, but no-one seemed to notice me, not really. Then a beautiful ginger-and-white she-cat with scars ripping down the side of her face wandered past me, and I gasped. Brightheart! It could only be her. I suddenly realised where I was - ThunderClan camp. I was tempted to go up to the leader's den, but something attracted me to a warm, milky-smelling den. (The nursery?) I thought, peering inside. A motherly-looking she-cat was gently licking a young-looking kit. A purr escaped me as I gazed at the tiny scrap of fur. Then, a jolt ran though my veins. The kit was gazing right at me. It had white fur with splotched black patches, and deep, yellow-amber eyes. My mouth fell open. The kit was ME. The she-cat's eyes locked with my own, and it was as though she was gazing into my very soul. "What if we could have a second chance, Swiftpaw?" she asked. And everything faded to black - "Swiftpaw!" "No - no - get away," I gasped, thrashing my paws. My eyes shot open to see a brown tabby tom with green eyes gazing down on me. "Swiftpaw, you crazy furball!" he mewed. "What was that all about? You were thrashing around like a fox in a fit!" "Nothing. Just another mouse-brained dream," I muttered, scrambling to my paws. The tabby's green eyes softened. "Nightmares about the dogs again? Sometimes I get nightmares about Tigerstar lunging towards me..." "No. Some she-cat going on about 'second chances', whatever THAT means," I replied. "Huh." The cat - whose name was Gorsepaw. He was a WindClan apprentice before he died - looked surprised. "Maybe you ate too much fresh-kill." I stifled a laugh. "Probably. Anyway, I'm going to visit Longtail. See you!" I touched noses with my friend, and bounded off across the glimmering fields of StarClan. - END OF CHAPTER
