~Red-hot rage enveloped the normally placid Ashstripe and she exploded inwardly as her watering eyes took in the scene Ashstripe had never wished to see: a failure at healing a cat. I'm so sorry, Lilypaw! I could've saved you! she keened in a vague attempt to make contact with the brand-New StarClan apprentice. Ashstripe shuddered with igniting rage at the very thought of the Clan of dead cats who stole away innocent cats!!!! StarClan!!!!!!!!! SHE HAD A WHOLE FUTURE AHEAD OF HER!!!!!! She stared helplessly at Crowpaw. THEY had A WHOLE FUTURE AHEAD OF THEM!
Ashstripe abruptly glanced at Nettlepaw, who was holding her paw at an awkward angle. "Nettlepaw, are you hurt?" Ashstripe hoarsely demanded.~
"Yes"Nettlepaw sobbed,"in here,"she put her paw to her chest, her eyes wet with tears.
~
The gray starry pelt came from Lilypaw,"It's ok, Ashstripe."She murmured before fadeing away.
~
Crowpaw could barley breath.He felt chocked with rage and anger and hurt pain and loss WHY DID I KILL THAT MOUSE?!?WHY?!ITS MY FALT OUR DEAD!ITS MINE, IM THE ONE TO BLAME! her words from just last night swirled in his head."Thank you, Crowpaw!"she had meowed, delight and purring at him.
~A familiar precense wreathed around the grief-stricken medicine cat and a familiar voice whispered into her ear, "It's okay, Ashstripe. It was my time." Ashstripe breathed in gently, and nodded as the voice faded into a vapor. The faint scent of a certain young apprentice lingered in her nostrils as she blinked twice diffidently...~
Crowpaw wanted to scream, he wanted to kill every warrior of StarClan.They took his mother and now they took Lilypaw.He felt rage like fire bubble up inside.He screeched, but quickly shut her mouth, digging his muzzle into the gray fur the cat he loved.
~
Lilypaw lovingly left Crowpaw and Ashstirpe,"It was my time, Ashstripe.It was ment to happen for another reason, not just the one you think"she meowed before her starry shape completly faded.
