"When you look in the water you will see what you want, not what you are." Your ears perk when you hear the voice and then a gust of wind blows your fur to the side, flower petals swirling around you before drifting off into the night sky. When you take a breath and feel the cold salty night air enter your body you almost feel as if your not alone, like everyone you lost suddenly gathers around the puddle to see what you want to see and be deep down inside. You tightly close your eyes and you heart beat in your chest. All of nature is silent for just one moment before you eyes fly open and you look down into the Salt Pool. You feel your heart stop when all you see is yourself, alone against a dark sky.

You begin to quake with emotions of sadness and questioning, this was not what you wanted at all. You wanted the one you love, a family and most of all for the evil soul inside you to subside so you yourself could make your own life. Tears roll down your cheek and land in the water below, your face twisting as you start to cry. Did this mean your ancestors did not accept you as your own cat? All they saw was your grandmothers soul inside you? That was not fair and you let them know but shouting to the stars, "Its not fair! I'm not my grandmother or have you not seen that!? I am my own Holly, and I love the cat that has trained me to be the way I am and I want to have a family and never have the blood of selfishness on my paws! I want to grow old and give many kits to my family so that they may live on and tell the story of everything that has happen! Why do you only see her! That, that monster!"

You look into the water that has now gone murky for a moment thanks to your tears. You wipe you face with your paws and calm down to a sniffling. When the water clears you don't only see yourself, you see your love and three tiny kits that sit down at your paws. Your ears rise and your whiskers twitch, this was not what you saw before. Now you had a family in the pictures of the starry pool. Slowly as you gazed at the picture figures begun to appear and you spotted a cat behind you. You jumped to your paws and spun around your tail fluffed and your eyes slits. You could feel the chill run up the back of your legs and you splashed the picture away with your feet and let out a hiss until you noticed no one was really there, just the shadows from the mountains and the light of the moon shining on the pool of water you stood in.

You heart begun to beat again, have you gone mad? You swore on your soul you saw the reflection of a cat in the pool as if a cat was looking over your shoulder. You had heard nothing, and scented nothing; no sound was made and nothing had changed other than herself. At the thought she was seeing shadows scared her, was she being stalked by a darker force, so far away from camp and so close to the pool. Was it even possible?

When you start to relax then freeze unable to move when you hear the wind whisper loudly in your ear. "You will never escape me!" You feel your heart beat right out of your chest and you sprint from the pool until you see dark figures sprint in front of the entrance. You skid to a stop and run towards the pool, splashing into he middle of the water you start the cry in fear, forgetting everything you learn. "Starclan! Please!" You yowl and as if an answer the pool starts to sparkle and you see the familiar face of your father in the pool and slowly his figure rises from the pool into a solid figure you could almost touch. Your eyes widen when he sprints from the pool he appeared from and with a yowl launches at the dark figure that in the light you could see it was Tigerstar, more warriors appeared from the pool as more dark figures came from the shadows. You could see the fire pelt of the old leader Firestar and the blue pelt of Bluestar, cats you have never seen before and cats you had come to know; soon a full out war between dark and light had started int he clearing. You jumped into fight but when you lashed your paw went through the cat and you jumped back when you felt the sheer pain of a scratch on your shoulder.

Your eyes locked on a group of cats you could pick out from sent and story, your father, and your old leader Graystar and his best friend Hollowstone all clamped together in a tight fighting group and as if to see her to they all let out a yowl at once, "Holly____ run!" At the words of the starry warriors you sprint through the entrance and deep into Cliffclan territory. What had just happen!
