Frostclan: Stay Out of the Shadows -OFFICIAL-

Rust wrapped his paws around the terrified Riverpaw. "It's okay....I'm here......Your safe.", Rust tried to calm her down.

"No! Pheasantpaw and Tigerclaw and Darkstar were all killed by the same person! There is a traitor among the clan!" Riverpaw yowled and struggled out of Rust's paws.

Rust gently held her. "Look calm down and i'll bring you to Smolderstar okay?", Rust said lovingly.

"Sorry, it was just so much.. then the darkness" Riverpaw trailed off and began shaking.

Rust layed with her, hugging her saying, "shhhhh it's okay. Calm down."

Riverpaw finally stopped mumbleing and shaking. She nuzzled Rust's side "In my dream Oceanfeather told me that I should go on with my life; Pheasantpaw's dead and I'm alive, but I'll still never forget him" She mewed.

"I know you won't and I respect that.",Rust said softly. And don't worry you'll see him again.

"Thank you" She mewed and licked Rust's ear. "Do you know when Smolderstar will make you an official apprentice?" She asked.

"I'll have to talk to him about it......i think he hates me though, but he said we could join so that means we'll have to become apprenticces." We could ask him now if you want to.,he replied.

"I think he's asleep and you do NOT want to wake him up" Riverpaw mewed with a slight chuckle.

(Yeah, but Jewelpaw can get him to make them apprentices ) Jewelpaw shuffled in her nest. It felt weird not having Shinepaw sleeping in the den with her. I hope she feels better soon.

Rust chuckled too. He was tired, but he didn't want to sleep because Riverpaw was scared.....she needed him right now.

"I would go back to sleep but my family is prone to terrible dreams" Riverpaw joked.

(her family is prone to terrible dreams....)

"Hey Jewelpaw can convince him...let's go talk to her about it.", Rust said.

(that sucks)

(Yeah it's a blessing and a curse... Stoneclaw was the first to know that the clan was in grave danger because of a dream)

"ok" Riverpaw mewed. She got up and padded towards Jewelpaw.

(that's cool)

They walked to her den........she was.......asleep? Darn

(Hey, at least they aren't like Cherrywing's family's Crimson Claw Curse It sucks..super bad!!) Jewelpaw grumbled in her sleep as she kept having this nightmare where Smolderstar and Hawkpaw tried to kill each other and there was nothing she could do to stop them. In the end, thundering clouds fill the skies, the ocean floor explodes, sending huge waves of sea water chasing down on them as lightning crackles overhead and finally, a frightening darkness engulfs them all into a pit of despair and and misery. Jewelpaw jolted awake.

"Oh, your awake we wanted to ask you something" Riverpaw mewed, looking at Jewelapw.

Rust spoke up. "Can you convice Smolderstar to make me and my friends apprentices?", he asked.

Jewelpaw blinked the sleepy fear from her eyes. "Umm....*yawn*..sure...." She peered out of the den to see it was still very dark and early in the morning. "You guys....couldn't sleep?" Her silky white and silver fur was slightly messy and her normally bright eyes were faded and blank with terror.

"Well, no it's a little complicated" Riverpaw mewed awkwardly.

She looks scared.....what's with all the nightmares?, Rust thought.

Jewelpaw nodded and suddenly added,"Hey...Umm...could you go check up on Shinepaw? Ask her if she had any.....dreams or...............nightmares. It might be nothing, but I have that sisterly connection with her and she might have had something happen to her like me-...."

"Jewelpaw, has Pheasantpaw visited you since his death?" Riverpaw asked.

"N-no......wait, only Pheasantpaw or any Starclan cat?" She seem surprised by the question, but not shocked.

Shinepaw screamed out in her sleep. "No....NO!! Please come back!!! Please Foxstar!!! NOOOOOO!" Jewelpaw leaped up and dashed to the medicine cats den. "Shinepaw?!"
