Shine Though the Clouds

Shine Through
Hope you enjoy! :) This is about my warrior, Shinefrost, and her beginnings.

Prologue
The muted thud of paw steps sounded through the night as a large white she-cat made her way through a clearing. Her elegant long fur looked blue in the bright moonlight that slithered through the thick willow branches draped over her camp. She made her way into a large bramble thicket, her nose scrunching slightly at the pungent scent of herbs. Laying in the den where several cats whimpering pitifully even in their sleep.

“Drizzlestar,” a black she-cat dipped her head respectively.

“Birdflutter, how are they?” Drizzlestar asked, looking down at her once thriving warriors with worry.

The young medicine cat shook her head with a soft sigh. “Pebblekit has recovered, I don’t think he had the disease, but no cats in this den look like they’ll be ready for action anytime soon,” she whispered.

Drizzlestar’s blue eyes closed for a moment, trying to find her calm. “Has StarClan told you anything?”

Birdflutter shook her head, looking miserable. “No.” Even more silently she added, “I don’t think they’re going to make it.”

The RiverClan leader sunk her claws deep into the moist soil. “Why won’t StarClan help us? Has RiverClan done something wrong?” Her blue eyes opened and she turned to Birdflutter. .

The black she-cat’s gaze was transfixed somewhere in the distance, and her head was titled towards the sky. Drizzlestar sat in silence, unsure of what to do, until the medicine cat gasped. She dipped her head and muttered a quick thank you.

“What did StarClan tell you?” the leader inquired.

“We will be saved,” Birdflight declared, a little hope ringing in her voice. “They said the cure is above the clouds.” "In the clouds?" Drizzlestar asked, confused. "So rain is our answer?" Birdflutter shook her head. "No, they said above it." The RiverClan leader stamped her paw down in anger and frustration. "The only thing above the clouds is StarClan!" she objected. The medicine cat's weary green eyes shone. "I don't know anymore than you. The answer will just have to come with time."
