When Shadewing woke, sunlight met her eyes.

Where am I? she thought.

She was in a sunlit meadow filled with green grass and white flowers. She spotted rabbits running through the grass. She sat up. Suddenly, she spotted a gingery shape coming toward her. A cat!

"Who are you?" she called to the cat. It ignored, coming closer. Soon, it was right in front of her.

"Flamestar! It's you!  Wait, am I dead?" she asked.

"No, young one, you're not dead. This is simply a dream." he purred, sitting down next to her.

"Oh Flamestar! I'm so sorry!  I wanted to help you, but i couldn't leave Leafblaze!" she mewed.

"It's alright, Shadewing. It wouldn't have done any good." he said simply.

"Why?"

"Because...I knew my fate long before this happened." he finally mewed.

Shock crept through Shadewing.

"How?" she asked in wonder.

"I was visited in a dream one night. I was told soon a great battle would come and it would be the end of me, but that a certain warrior in my Clan would be able to keep things together once I passed on.  Then, I saw the cat.  It was you, Shadewing."

"Me?" Shadewing squeaked.

"Yes. You are the Pride of FireClan.  You have saved us all.  Now, I can count on Emberheart and you to keep things balanced now."

Suddenly, a though entered Shadewing's mind.

"Flamestar? I know about...Hawkwing and...Nightstorm...and that..." she couldn't finish.

"That Hawkwing is your father, and was exiled from FireClan?" he guessed.

"What exactly happened? I need to know Flamestar, so I can face him again." she mewed.

Flamestar turned away, gazing at some faraway point.

"I suggest you ask Leafblaze. He will be able to tell you more than I can.  And, Shadewing, please don't mention it to Hawkbreeze.  It has already caused him great stress, lying to you.  Now I must go."

And with that, he vanished.

Shadewing woke up.\
