Whitemoon stared at the small sleeping body of the apprentice, worried for his life. "Wake up, small one." he nudged the cat in his dreams, then entered as he would a cave. Smokepaw seemed to be chasing something. "Smokepaw!" Whitemoon yowled.

Smokepaw looked over at the cat that called him with confusion. he remembered sleeping in the apprentice den, lying beside Pondpaw. Then how could he be here? besides, he'd never seen this cat before... actually, maybe he had, but he was very, very young.
Whitemoon had a scent of WaterClan on him; he must have died before Smokepaw had memory.
The dark grey apprentice cautiously moved towards the white tom, his eyes showing disbelief as he saw the stars in his pelt. "StarClan?" he mumbled and glanced around. "im not dead am i?" he was a little scared though he didn't betray much of his thoughts.

"No that'll be a long time from now. My name is Whitemoon. I am part of StarClan, you have become part of a prphecy and quest that we, StarClan, have no power over. Listen closly, and go to the Giant(or big) Oak and find the other 5." Whitemoon cleared his throat, his voice becoming the 100-year-old that you hear when prophecies are told.
"Cats of the cold are cats of the wise,
Cats are not Clanborn but they will still rise.
The one with the mark is the one with the song,
The ones who survived leafbare's long.
Smallest though they may be,
Truer hearts one could never see.
Beware of the blood that drenches the stars;
Rogues will soon have the paws.
Revenge may be bitter, but it still can be sweet,
For the winter scar and the song is defeat.
But never fear, for along in the midst
Are four cats who's bravery can insist
That good will prevail, but only when
Winter and song can save the land.
The small acorn of the earth
Is about to grow,
The smoke on the water
Is about to show,
The fox of the fire
Is about to begin,
And with the Thunder in the lightning
Winter and song can win."
"Good Luck, Smokepaw of WaterClan, tell Froststar Whitemoon still watches her." Whitemoon released Smokepaw back to his dreams.

OOC: ok cool! sooooooo should Smokepaw go to the Giant Oak now? or like full moon or smth? u didn't specify. XP but this is getting so exciting! *jumps up and down* LOL ok i'm weird, i know. =3
IC: Smokepaw awoke from his sleep; he wasn't able to dream after that eary prophecy Whitemoon had told him. Other 5? that meant there were other cats on this same prophecy. but why was HE chosen? he was only an apprentice, and he couldn't even make a friend without conflicts... Starclan must have chosen the wrong cat he growled under his breath, thinking himself as useless. He'd never done anything to make any cat proud before, and he's probably not going to start changing now. He's been like this since he was a kit.
Getting up and making sure not to wake up the cats around him, Smokepaw stalked out into the camp clearing. he knew he wouldn't be able to sleep now, after all this. his eyes were wide open and he felt a course of energy though his doubts of himself grew stronger the more he thought about it. even if StarClan came to the wrong cat, i should at least pass on Whitemoon's words he thought, then quietly went up to Froststar's den, hoping not to wake her if she's asleep.
the white moon shone above in the dark, blackened sky, turning Smokepaw's dark pelt to a whitish, silvery colour. in a way, the apprentice looked like Whitemoon... (hah to get Froststar confused! XP)
"Froststar?" he called lightly, his voice quiet but loud enough to get attention from an awakened cat.

OOC: Do you still want Pondpaw in it?
IC: A slight rustling sound awoke a slim silver-blue she-cat from her slumber. Her dreams were filled with the memory Smokepaw and her’s time together. (This post takes place after the thread they are in right now.) His comforting words are still stuck in her mind. The slim apprentice opened her emerald eyes, and watched a dark figure, as it slowly made its way out of the apprentice’s den. The warm body next to her was gone. Pondpaw got to her paws, as it disappeared threw the entrance/exit. She silently padded out, and saw a familiar cat. It was Smokepaw. Pondpaw made her way into the open, hoping that the moon didn’t give her away. It’s light made her look almost all silver, and made the blue color in her fur hard to see. When the slim she-cat got closer to Smokepaw, she parted her jaws, “Are you okay, Smokepaw?” Pondpaw questioned, ready for the sharp tongued apprentice tom to snap at her like he did to everyone else. Even though Smokepaw was nice to her when they met at the river, doesn’t promise his kindness.

OOC: sooooooooooooo should Smokepaw go NOW? sry i'm asking again but i am in case u didn't see the last one. XP
and yay pondpaw! =3
IC: Smokepaw turned quickly to look at Pondpaw, unsure of what to do. it must seem weird that he's awake so late at night, standing right outside the leader's den with his fur rising from nervousness. He gave his chest a couple of quick licks before replying. "Yeah." he mumbled, glancing over at Froststar's den again before turning to leave camp.
The forest looked stunningly different under the moonlight compared to the day time. there were only the soft sounds of crickets above the silence as the creatures that usually scrurried around were asleep in their burrows. the starry sky created an eary light that passed through the tall trees that seem to have grown bigger.
Smokepaw's never been out this late at night before; as an apprentice he never got to go on moonhigh patrols.
He didn't know if Pondpaw was following or not, but Whitemoon did say something about meeting the other cats at the Giant Oak... he didn't say when though, so Smokepaw might as well go check the place out. He was going to tell Froststar but he'll just have to find a better time tomorrow or something...
OOC: i have an idea!!!!!! hey Flamey, since i posted this, why not have Froststar not know about the prophecy? so like she'll be worried so things won't be so boring, and she could suspect other clans or even the tribe for stealing 2 apprentices! BATTLE!!! woot! LOL

OOC: Snowstep wants Pondpaw to follow Smokepaw....is that okay with you, Rosefeather?
IC: Pondpaw watched Smokepaw leave. He was hiding something. The dark gray apprentice had left with only few words, and he looked nervous. The slim silver-blue apprentice she-cat followed slowly, her emerald eyes flicking everywhere. The forest looked dark and haunting this late. Each sound from a bird made her jump, but she still followed Smokepaw's scent.
As she followed him farther, she couldn't help but notice that how he was heading for the Giant Oak. A thousand questions raced threw her head, as the she-cat apprentice padded faster, trying not to loose him.
The faint image of Smokepaw was able to be seen in front of her, so Pondpaw fell back some, and made her way into bushes, and threw the tall grass, trying to hide her bright silver tinted blue fur.

OOC: hey Rosefeather, should i create the meeting post later? when all cats have gotten their dream, or post now? =P Smokepaw shall be da first to ARRIVE! yays! XP
IC: The dark apprentice stopped in his steps, and turned his head. He could scent Pondpaw, but she wasn't there... he didn't know if he was imagining things or the pretty silver-blue apprentice was really there. He let out a small sigh and turned again, but didn't move. Somewhere in his heart, he WANTED Pondpaw to be following her. He didn't know why, but that feelings kept pulling at him.
Then a prickle of fear hit him; should he really go off without telling the leader?

IC: Pondpaw crawled threw the tall grass, and made her way silently into a over grown fern bush. Her emerald eyes flashed in the moon light, as she looked at Smokepaw. The dark grey apprentice has stopped, and only glanced back once. What is he thinking? Pondpaw asked herself, knowing that she couldn't answer. The only way to find out, was to ask Smokepaw.
The slim silver-blue she-cat began to silently and slowly climb up a nearby tree, and balance on the edge of a low branch. She was really only a fox length away from him at this spot, and only a feet paw steps above the ground, but the thick pine tree covered her from sight. The wind blew at her face, so she knew she would be undetected. Her muscles bunched up under her, and with one powerful leap, she was off.
It took only half a heart beat before she was beside him, and her paw next to her mouth so she could wash it calmly. “And what are you doing?” Pondpaw purred, looking up after she drew her paw over her left ear.

Smokepaw took a sudden step back as Pondpaw jumped down and landed right beside him. it caught him by surprise, yes, but he was thankful that at least this time she didn't jump ON him.
"Do you always do your entrances this way?" he asked and rolled his eyes. although he didn't sound happy, there was a hint of amusement in his normally serious voice.
all at once it seemed, the empty and dark feeling he was was gone, and it just felt like any other day, but with someone standing by him. (both literally and emotionally!) at that moment, he forgot why he was out here, but was glad he was. under the bright moonlight, Pondpaw looked like a StarClan cat herself... so beautiful...

OOC: lol XD
IC: "Why not? It is something called having fun! You should try it once in a wile..." Pondpaw purred with amusement, as she walked past him, letting her tail run over Smokepaw's chest. "So why are you here?"

"um..." Smokepaw had a feeling of unease as Pondpaw brushed her tail across his chest. "...I... Had a dream..." he mumbled and watched as the silver-blue apprentice's tail flickered away. he didn't know what she'll think about that, for dreams are sometimes simply dreams, but he knew his was special. he waited for her reply as he heart slowed back down.

OOC: We had to watch a movie about Martin Luther King Jr., and Smokepaw saying that he had a dream made me laugh a little...
IC: Pondpaw whipped around at Smokepaw's words. "Like a dream from Starclan!?" She asked, her eyes seemed to sparkle. "What did they tell you to do? Is the forest going to be attacked? Are you going somewhere? Can I come?" Pondpaw asked, as she circled around him. Her questions seemed endless, because she suddenly got a large burst of energy, at the knowledge of Smokepaw having a dream.
Pondpaw worked her paws on the ground, messing up the pebbles that were neatly mixed up with the earth and grass. Her tail flicked from left to right, twitched her whiskers. If Smokepaw answered now, it wouldn't have been soon enough.

"Hm... I don't really know." he answered truthfully and watched Pondpaw circle back and forth with his dark eyes.
"but i do know one thing," he added, afraid the silver-blue she-cat would lose interest in his dream... and maybe even him. there was that slight flicker of fear that quickly vanished as excitement swelled up. "i have to go meet with some other cats, apparently." he meowed as though it was no big deal, but his eyes were shining with anticipation.

IC: "Well...." Pondpaw meowed slowly, looking at him with a friendly look on her face. She padded around him one last time, before stopping in front of him, a playful smirk on her face, "You know that you can't leave without me. I won't allow it." Pondpaw answered at the news of him meeting other cats at the Giant Oak. She sat down in front of him, and rapped her long silver tinted tail around her paws.

Smokepaw looked around reluctantly, like he was looking for a sign from starclan if this was ok or not. he even felt like he betrayed his warrior ancestors just by telling Pondpaw about the dream. However, after a short silence, the dark tom didn't see anything that might be a sign, so he guessed it was alright.
"fine" he said, like he didn't really care, but he smiled to himself, glad that Pondpaw was going as well. good thing it was dark enough for it not to be seen. then he got a little nervous about the whole thing. "...do you really want to come with me?" he asked, afraid that Pondpaw only agreed because she was simply being nice.

IC: "Why wouldn't I want to come? I always wanted to help the forest, and there is nothing to do back at camp! Plus, there is no way I'm going to let you have all the fun without me!" Pondpaw purred to Smokepaw, her emerald eyes widened as the smirk twisted into a large grin, "And, we are friends, right? Friends are supposed to stick together!" The slim silver-blue she-cat added. Her grin could not get any bigger, for she had to smile for both of them, because she knew Smokepaw was too proud to show his emotions.

Smokepaw looked down for a second, then back up and looked Pondpaw in the eyes, her pretty ones reflecting his dark ones. "ok" he simply said, and he felt a warm feeling inside of him. "let's go then" he meowed and stood up, starting to make his way towards the Giant Oak where all the cats were supposed to meet...
