Prologue- Whitemist (Hope)

I looked up at the night sky. The stars sparkled, illuminating the darkness.

I smiled to myself. Thinking of everything that has happened.

Nightwhisker was the first thing that came to mind. His black pelt and his glimmering eyes. I grinned and my whiskers twitch happily.

But then, I frowned. I thought about the war.

My mind flashed with memories.

I heard a screech of pain ringing through my ears. I recognise that screech. I have heard it before.

A flash of colour. Red to be exact.

I saw my mother, looking down at me, blood dripping from her mouth.

"Mother!" I cried.

"It will be okay. Make sure this war end Whitekit! Please, you have to!" begged my mother.

She rushed out of the cave and then shouted out, "I love you!"

I gasped, snapping out of my thoughts.

That was a memory.

The last memory of me and my mother together.

My eyes were now shining with sadness as I looked up at the stars again.

Their light seems to have dimmed, the night sky becoming darker.

If only she was here. My mother could have stopped the war. I can't do this. I can't do as she wished. I am a failure. I am sorry mother.

Chapter One- Nightwhisker (Misty)

I shifted in my nest. Something was missing..... Oh. Whitemist must've gone to get some fresh air.

Whitemist's friend, Maplepelt shifted over to glare at me. I managed to stifle a laugh, and Maplepelt smiled. We had become friends over the time I wasn't trusted enough to sleep in the warriors den. Maybe even as good as Sandtail.

Sandtail. The memory hit me like a needle. A part of me had wanted to stay in RiverClan. That part still does. No. ThunderClan is your home now. If you hadn't left RiverClan, you wouldn't have been with Whitemist.

I got out of my nest to find her. Carefully stepping over cats, I breathed in the night air. The night is where you belong. After all, it is your prefix, the reason you're not like any other cat.

I saw a shape staring at the moon. I crept over, and sat by her. Whitemist jumped. "Sorry," she whispered. "Didn't know you were there,"

Shaking my head, I said, "It's all right. I just thought we could enjoy the stars together,"

Whitemist's green eyes turned to smile playfully at me. "Do you ever feel like you made the wrong choices?"

I looked down. "I guess you could say that,"

"No, I'm serious. There have been some...... things happening lately,"

I giggled quietly. "Like you sleeping in way to late?"

She nodded. "Yeah, but... Other stuff. Like when your memories decide to show up at the least wanted time,"

"Oh,"

We sat in silence for some time, then Whitemist licked my ear and said, "I should probably get some sleep or I'll be sleeping in late again,"

I smiled. "I'll be in there in a moment,"

She waved her tail in response, then disappeared in the warriors den.

As soon as she left, a small, starry figure greeted me. I recognised it as Lightningpaw. "Lightningpaw!" I quietly, but happily exclaimed.

"Nightwhisker," she smiled, eyes puffy as if she was crying. "No matter what you think is wrong, or that you regret, think of the good things that happened after," Lightningpaw started off into the sky.

"Wait!" I said. "Don't go! You only just got here!"

But she was gone.

I sighed and went back in the warriors den, curled in my nest, and feel asleep.

Chapter Two- Honeyspots (Hope)

ShadowClan camp was silent. Only the light wind could be heard.

I decided to set out early to collect some herbs the night before. I regretted that decision as soon as I woke up. I stretched, letting my muscles loosen. I yawned and started walking out of my den. The breeze instantly hit me, ruffling my pelt. A smile spread across my face.

Dawn had just come, giving the forest some light. I continued to pad out of ShadowClan camp, stopping sometimes to admire the beauty of dawn.

I stopped, trying to remember exactly what herbs I had to get.

Fox dung, I can't remember!

I looked behind me, wondering if I should walk back to camp to check my herb supply.

No, it is fine. I'll just try and collect all the herbs I can.

I continued to stroll deeper into the forest. ShadowClan camp was no looking smaller.

Then, I soon remembered I must stock up on the poppy seed supply. That is what I would get first.

I sniffed the air, the smell of squirrel filling my nose. I licked my lips but then told myself I had to collect herbs.

"Honeyspots!" shouted a voice behind me.

I turned quickly, wondering who it was. I recognised the dark pelt of Owlkit.

"Owlkit?! What are you doing here?"

"I followed you!" smiled Owlkit, looking proud of himself.

"You are not allowed to be here!" I growled.

Owlkit frowned, "But I want to learn about herbs!"

"Well, if you become a Medicine Cat apprentice then you can learn about herbs. That is still a moon away." I told Owlkit.

Owlkit sighed, "I know!"

"Good, now, I have to take you back to camp!" I huffed.

I picked up Owlkit by the scruff and he tried to protest.

"I am too old for this!" he argued.

I rolled my eyes and smiled to myself.

Sometimes, I wish I had chosen a different path!
