The Four Clans P15

            Mousepaw saw herself, Birdpelt, and Finchfeather standing in front of the nursery nearby Flowerpaw stood watching in the shadows smirking. Mousepaw was yowling her head off Birdpelt trying to explain. There was no sound but it was a clear they were arguing.

            What is this? I don’t remember this at all…

Then Finchfeather’s words came “You were found in Thunder Clan territory in new leaf. You had no clan scent on you that might have been because you didn’t belong to a clan or because the scent of dog mess stained your fur for half a moon.”

Mousepaw held her breath. Her body shook.

            What is happening to me? Is this true?

Her vision blurred and then everything went black. She blinked her eyes a few times as light came back. Now she saw herself, Flowerpaw, Fernpaw, and Eaglepaw.

Flowerpaw looked at Fernpaw and spoke a few words, then she turned to Goldenpaw she smiled and spoke more, then lastly she turned to Mousepaw disgust spread across her face.

Then Flowerpaw’s voice came filling all around, “Mousepaw, I can see where you get your name tiny, puny, and worst of all you’re not even a Thunder Clan cat.”

Mousepaw’s vision went black again she blinked her eyes expecting color to come back to her so she could she again. She waited an only a few heartbeats but it seemed like moons.

            What is happening to me? Am I going blind? Am I insane?

Scent flooded her nose. It was River Clan. Her eyes cleared to expose hunting ground there was a stream to her right, she was lying under an oak tree, and sitting at the edge of the stream was a silver she-cat. Mousepaw stood up and shook her head.

            “Who are-” Mousepaw closed her mouth realizing that the cat was hunting. The she-cat swooped down a paw scooping up a fish, plopping it on the ground, she placed a paw on the flopping fish and clawed it bringing it still. She turned and gave a kind smile. As she turned the light changed and Mousepaw realized she had stars in her pelt. Mousepaw took a step back.

            “Oh worry not, I’m not going to hurt you young one,” she she-cat said softly “Please let’s sit and talk.”

Mousepaw nodded and followed the she-cat to sit at the stream edge.

            “You are Mousepaw apprentice of Thunder Clan I assume?” The she-cat asked.

Mousepaw nodded “Yes, how did you know? Who are you?”

The she-cat smiled “I am Silversong warrior of River Clan. I’m a Star Clan now. That is how I know of you I would know my own kin.”

            “What do you mean your own kin?” Mousepaw asked.

Silversong frowned as if she just remembered she had said that.

            “Did I say that? Silly me.”

Mousepaw narrowed her eyes.

            She’s lying. I’m her kin?

            “I’m here to answer your questions but we only have a short amount of time.” Silversong meowed.

            “The things I saw what was that?” Mousepaw asked.

            “Simple there your memories, it all happened the day you became an apprentice. The day you went into shock.” Silversong answered.

Mousepaw felt her blood go cold. “Then it’s true?”

Silversong nodded.

            “I’m n-not clan b-born?” Mousepaw stuttered.

            “I’m sorry there is no more time left,” Silversong mewed. “Goodbye.”

            “WAIT!” Mousepaw yowled. “Answer the question, please!”

Mousepaw’s vision went black and she blinked her eyes and saw Flowerpaw’s arrogant face.
