~Ghostclan Theme Song~
~1, Battle~
I felt like I had been dreaming for hours. Finally waking up I saw two, no, three cats hovering over me.
"Look, she's finally awake." One of them meowed.
Sense when could I understand cats? I'd say never. Unless...
"Oh my Go-Starclan!" I breathed, correcting myself.
Did what I think happened actually happen? holy Starclan! I got up onto my feet slowly, turning my head to look at the gashes. They where healing incredibly fast. Now they where only lines, faint pink lines. Silentwing, the smoky gray tom gasped in shock.
When Wolfpaw got back his mouth hung open, the herbs laying on the ground.
"Smokestar. I don't think this is likely with you but I think she should join our clan." Silentwing murmured to the gray tom, who was staring at me.
Smokestar nodded. I walked over to a puddle, I saw my reflection. I had black fur, silver blue eyes, and that was about it. There was also a silverish white marking on my chest. I didn't reconize it at first. Though when I looked harder, I saw what it was. It was a wolf. Silver eyes like mine. Though they where all silver, nothing else. My eyes widened at the sight. I took a few steps back. Something in my gut felt all to familiar.
"What's wrong?" Silentwing asked.
"Something, feels all to familiar. I can't explain-" A sickening snap went off. I was a dire wolf now. Eyes glowing intense silver. The marking was now of the cat I was a second ago.
My mind raced. What am I? Who am I? I tried to calm myself. Looking at the cat inside myself. What am I? Was I really a human before? Silentwing, Wolfpaw and smokestar stared at me, eyes wide. Wolfpaw looked like he was going to yowl.
I looked back into the puddle. concentrating I wished that I was a cat again. Another snap. I was a cat again. A patrol rushed back into camp.
"Smokestar! Spiritclan are invading!" Battle cry yowls could be heard coming toward camp.
"Smokestar jolted back to reality. He dashed outside, I looked at Silentwing. she nodded. I raced out to join Smokestar.
"Apprentices help protect the elders! Warriors, scatter throughout camp into battle form!" He turned to me.
"I trust you. Go help protect the queens and kits. I'll be with Silentwing and wolfpaw." He murmured softly.
I nodded, dashing toward the nusery. Then the battle began. Spiritclan broke through the camp. I was now faced with two Spiritclan warriors. They clawed at me. I took every hit. Growling, I reconized that it sounded like a wolf growl. The Spiritclan warriors didn't care. The snap went off. I was a dire wolf again. Growling I knocked one Spiritclan warrior aside. A sickening crack came from the warriors skull. I then turned to the second.
His eyes went wide, then narrowed. The queen behind me stared in shock. The warrior ran, tail between his legs. With another snap, I was a cat again.
"What are you?" The queen asked.
"I don't know." I bent my head.
The queen sighed. Battle still raged. Two apprentices where fighting a Spiritclan warrior. Smokestar was battling with what looked like the Spiritclan leader. Warriors where fighting. Yowls of pain and rage where going off like bombs.
"How'd you turn into a wolf?" The queen asked.
"I gues it's because of the marking." I muttered.
"What marking?" The queen asked.
I turned around. "This marking." I pointed a claw at the wolf marking on my chest.
"Spiritclan retreat!" A ginger tom yowled.
He was the one Smokestar had been battling.
"That's Mountianstar. Heronwing is his deputy." the queen meowed.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"How rude of me. I'm Mintpelt. Ghostclan's only queen for now." Mintpelt meowed.
"For now?" I asked.
"yes, Runningwind looks as if she'll be joining the queens soon."
Smokestar trotted over to us. He had a gash on his shoulder and on his right side. A torn left ear as well.
"Looks like You and your two kits are safe." Smokestar meowed to Mintpelt.
"Yes, Eaglekit and Frostkit are fine."Mintpelt meowed.
"Would you like to join Ghostclan?" Smokestar asked me abruptly.
