Of Loyalty & Dream's

[Raven]

Longclaw strode into the den. His coat damp. He had been swimming, ridding his pelt of Riverclan scent. THough he had nothing to hide, Longclaw had rejected Rosethorn. Now he felt bad. She probably hated him. That's what I wanted, if she hates me she might find someone in Riverclan He thought darkly. It wasn't that she wasn't pretty, she was gorgeous. It wasn't that she wasn't kind, she seemed plenty nice. He just wanted to prove he could be loyal. It would just break the thing that seperated him from his grand parents. If he had halfclan kits he'd be just like his grand father. Longclaw shuddered dropping like a stone to the soft beds. He hadn't done much, yet he felt completely drained. "I should decide right now." He whispered to himself, but before he could start his eyes closed. Sleep jumped at him like a pack of wolves.
***DREAM SEQUENCE***
Longkit jumped at his brother. "Haha! Found you!" He squeaked pushing his brother over. Just as quickly darting into the shadows. A howl was heard as rogues jumped into the nursery. "Stop! Stop Eagleclaw! Think about your father! You'll be giving in to him! Oh please stop! We won't be able to stop them in Starclan!" Howled his mother. With one swipe his mother was dead. The rogues began killing as warriors entered. Fighting erupted in the den. "Yarrowkit! Beetlekit! Liquidkit!" Longkit called looking for his siblings. He tripped over Beetlekit's broken body. Longkit crouched by his dead brother. He saw a black shape get tossed like a piece of moss. Goldenkit! His best friend! He dodged to her body, but no breath came. He stayed crouched by her body until the fighting ceased. It felt like days. Mourning cries echoed in the sky as bodies left the nursery.

The young warrior woke with a start. His breathing hard as he remembered that day. He'd never seen Yarrowkit's or Liquidkit's bodies. Stop them... His mind pondered over the words. Stop who? Stop them from being ridiculed? Why would she worry about that if he meant to kill us all? He shook his head stretching he left the den. Sitting right outside.

Faithleaf had been watching the stars that shone against the moon, when she heard Longclaw wake. "Beautiful night, tonight..." she sighed.

[Raven]

Longclaw twitched barely stopping himself from jumping. "Greeting's Faithleaf, Yes Starclan has been watching over us nicely" He said looking at the sky. His gray ears twitched. Longclaw looked at the medicine cat apprentice. "How are you this night?" He asked yawning slightly. Though he still wondered over his mothers words he showed no sign.

"Fine. Something is coming. A prophecy, I fear. But then again, I may be wrong. After the battle with DarkClan, ShadowClan has greatly suffered and gained. We lost cats and we gained two. Blackfrost," she spat the name she hated so much. Starshower had told her stories of the she-cat. Nothing was likeable.

[Raven]

The gray and white cat turned to look at Faithleaf. His surprise clear. "Blackfrost? I never met her. I'm assuming she's a scheming kind of cat...The name would suit that of a liar" He said calmly. "But really...One cat against all of us? What could she do? Become lea-" Sudden realization came upon him. If she became trusted... "Oh." He meowed slowly.
