Shadowspot flicked his tail, troubled by his dream, only medicine cats had dreams... maybe it wasn't real, and he was right, it was just a bad dream? he pushed himself up. feeling as though his paws where heavy as stone. he shook his pelt and padded out of the warrior's den, the sun beaming down on his pelt, the camp around him was quiet and peaceful, cat sharing tongues in the early morning sunshine, furrypaw bounded up to him. "Hey shadowspot! could we go out and battle train today" shadowspot would have normally smiled at the yellow she cat, and instantly thought about her training, but right now he had other things on his mind. "sorry furrypaw, ive got a few things to deal with, I can send you out on a hunting patrol though if you'd like?" furrypaw only gazed at him and nodded her head before turning around and padding back to her friends. arrowheart was laying outside of the warriors den, her black pelt shining in the sunlight. "It was more then a bad dream" at arrowhearts words shadowspot nearly jumped out of his fur, he whipped around "D-dont scare me like that" arrowheart stood up, a stern look on her eyes "you dont have to tell me, but if something happened, im always here." she then curled up and layed down again as though the conversation had never started. shadowspot sighed, he would have to tell someone, but it just... wasnt the right person, if he told anyone he should tell a medicine cat, sageclaw or firepaw could tell him what it ment. he gathered near the freshkill pile, first thing first he had to sort out the patrols. "Furrypaw! Sunstrike! arrowheart! and fernpaw! I want you to go on a hunting patrol near the shadowclan border, and while your there do a border patrol." he sighed, all of the cats where overworked, the apprentices outnumbered the warriors and still there weren't enough cats for border patrols and hunting partys. "sunstrike I want you to lead it, You know how dangerous shadowclan can be." sunstrike nodded and flicked his tail for the rest of the group to follow him out the entrance to camp. shadowspot spotted sageclaw walking away from hollystar, hollystar was sageclaws best friend, he didnt have to worry normally if sageclaw had went to talk with the leader. but now, with the shadowcat threat, maybe sageclaw had received a vision. shadowsight shook his head, finally deciding to tell sageclaw, about his past, and the future that was lurking forward, like a hunter advancing on prey. shadowspot stoped infront of sageclaw who looked minorly surprised. "what do you want?" she meowed exasperatedly, but this was normal. she would sigh and chuckle "did you get a thorn in your pad or what? spit it out." shadowspot shuffled his paws, and raced over to the shadowy coner at the farest edge of camp so no cat would hear them. flicking his tail for sageclaw to follow. instatly sageclaws expression darkened as she realized something wasnt right. "is everythig okay shadowspot? did a cat die?" she would tilt her head. shadowspot took a deep quivering breath and before he knew it, he was spilling everything out to sageclaw "I- well, when I was born me and my sister evekit where attacked by a... corruption. my mother and sister died." he would stop as memories flashed through his mind. "well... I who had survived the atack got a magcial gift," he tensed, he had never told anyone about his gift. "watch" he meowed and turned to a large stone. he concentrated o the position he wanted it to be fore a. few seconds, and the stone hovered over to that spot. sageclaw sat beside him, wide eyed staring at the stone "y-" shadowspot cut her off, he needed to tell her about shadowcat "I think its come back, I had a dream last night, a cat named" he shook his head, the name stinging in his ears "was... shadowcat. he mentioned my sister my clan and everything, he said he would destroy it all. he had dark red eyes that shone in the dark forrest I was standing in, he was giant and completely made out of smoke!" shadowspot flicked his tail, wondering if the she cat standing infront of him wouldent believe this story. she shook her head her eyes full of fear "we havent had a problem in weirdclan since hollystars clan left her" she would meow half to herself "this might be a large threat." shadowspot nodded, if there was a cat made of shadows ready to pounce at any moment. they needed to prepare.
