Snowpaw wants nothing more than to be successful. Although she may not be the next prodigy her clanmates give her, and her sisters, great respect. But when tragedy strikes the Clan, Snowpaw finds herself lonely and confused. Will she ever become a great warrior? Or has her dreams been shattered by the floods of fate?

Water trickled of the edge of a hill and fell into a shallow pool bellow. Soft waves rippled across the water in rhythmic pattern. At the edge of the pool, dark green eyes gazed down at the water in contemplation.
"I have a bad feeling about this." murmured a small cat with a dark brown pelt. "But if you think it's necessary I'm not going to stop you."
The green eyed cat still watched the water with slight tension. "I do too Ivyleaf, but I need to know." she dipped one paw into the water causing another disturbance.
"This feels different though, Hollystar." Ivyleaf contested worriedly. "It's that feeling where you know something bad is going to happen and there's nothing you can do about it."
Hollystar turned her head slightly to acknowledge the other cats opinion. "We have to have faith in our ancestors. Even when everything seems lost, we can always look to them for advice." She stepped further into the water and began to lay down in the shallow pool.
"But StarClan can't do everything, Hollystar! The sooner you learn that, the better off you'll be. I've seen the signs, the few omens they have hinted. If you visit them, what little knowledge we have will be clouded."
"I think you're over-reacting, Ivyleaf." Hollystar retorted in in a soft, drowsy voice. She drifted off into a dreamy state faintly hearing the brown cat's worried voice as it trailed off into nothing. When Hollystar opened up her eyes she found herself in a starry forest. She was no longer sitting in water, but in some sort of forest clearing. "Hello?" she called out in confusion. Surely there would be someone who must speak with her. After many long moments, the she-cat's frustration grew and she began to walk about the forest.
Just as she was about to disappear into the tree a line, a soft voice whispered from behind her. "Hollystar? What are you doing here?"
Hollystar flung around with a beat of joy. "Willowflower!" she exclaimed quickly padding up to the newcomer. She went up to touch noses with Willowflower but the she-cat pulled her head back in confusion.
"What are you doing here Hollystar?" Willowflower's response seemed uneasy and troubled. "You should be asleep."
"But every night I've been getting these terrible dreams--visions more than likely. They seem so real, so terrifying... What do they mean?"
"Dreams?" The she-cat replied in bewilderment. "Hollystar I'm afraid I don't know."
Hollystar's ear's dropped in disappointment. "You don't know? Then who does?"
Willowflower shook her head. "I am not sure, Hollystar. But to my knowledge, your dreams are not associated with StarClan." Her blue eyes were tainted with a bit of fear--as if she were concealing something. "My advice for you is to trust your instincts." The she-cat began to fade into the air.
"But Willowflower!" Hollystar cried out, "I'm confused! Something terrible is coming, you must know something!" she squeezed her eyes shut in pain. "What are you hiding from me..." she trailed off not knowing what to believe.
Chapter One (WIP)
Snowpaw scanned her surroundings intently. It was the first time on a solo hunt and she was determined to show what she could do. She sniffed the air and inhaled a tangled mess of smells. There were two faint traces of squirrels and something she wasn't quite sure of; maybe a rabbit?--But all that didn't matter at the moment since there was the fresh scent of mouse in the air. The sleek white apprentice lowered her body slightly and continued to walk forward. She continued to use her nose to guide herself through the undergrowth. She sniffed the air a second time
It's around here! she thought. Excitement began to erupt in her heart as the scent was evidently strong. She scanned the area noticed a small dusky brown object peaking out from the grass. Snowpaw dropped down low and began to stalk the creature. It looked like victory, it smelled like...Blazepaw? Snowpaw looked up for a moment in confusion. He was probably just by here with Sparrowpelt she thought. It was nothing to worry about.
"Snowpaw!" A voice shouted from behind her.
Snowpaw yowled in surprise and jumped up high in the air. She landed a couple of tail-lengths away with her back arched high, her hair sticking up in fear.
"You're never going to guess what I did today!" A dark ginger tom emerged from the brush.
"Bl-Blazepaw" Snowpaw stuttered trying to regain control of her thoughts. You-you little "Mousebrain! You just costed me a mouse" she scowled at the larger tom.
