Darkstar woke with a start, the same recurring nightmare plaguing him once again. It's always the same. The peaceful moon is shattered by the red moon. Why do I keep seeing this? Ever since that red moon this has been going on! We've been losing more and more cats to this plague and I don't think we can afford to lose anymore. Heading outside from his den which was a small hollow in the base of a tree, he surveyed his camp, noting that it was still nighttime. "So much for a good night's sleep," he muttered. "I'll just have to go borrow some poppy seeds from the medicine cat."
As Darkstar entered the medicine den, NPCclaw, the medicine cat was backing out, running straight into the black-striped leader's face. "Mmmph! Hrmm fowwy Bwaarkfaarrl," the medicine cat's response was muffled by a herb wrap he had in his jaws. Gently setting it on the ground, the undistinctly marked cat blinked his apology, "I'm sorry Darkstar! I'm busy sorting our supplies."
"It's fine. I was just wondering if you had any poppy seeds I could use. I can't sleep."
NPCclaw blinked. "Was it that dream again?"
Darkstar winced glancing around to make sure none of the other cats heard them. Then, drawing his muzzle close to NPCclaw's face, he responded, "Yes. I don't know what it means. Do you think it's another sign from StarClan?"
NPCclaw shook his head, "I'm not sure. They haven't spoken to me in a while. Is it anything like the original prophecy?"
Darkstar shuddered, remembering the original prophecy that everybody had ignored. "No. Not even close."
"Then you're probably just having nightmares from trauma. They'll go away eventually. I'll go get your poppy seeds."
Darkstar shook his head as the medicine cat returned to their den. How can a dream I've been having for moons only be from trauma?
((Bleargh. Sucky. D: And NPCclaw is the medicine cat until we get an official one. Bow down to them! x3))
