Part of this is true. Yes, Shadows did exist as one of my characters, and my cats in file 1 on that computer did randomly die. I did have this glitch twice, once with Shadows (at a forgotten date) and with Leafdawn (on 11/7/15 I think). Leafdawn was played as a character and experienced the glitch as well.

Prolouge/Teaser
Everything is gone. The sky has gone black. All my friends are gone! Where did they go?
"Help me!"
Did I just say that out loud?
"Welcome."
Who is that? Why am I here? I have so many questions! Is this the Dark forest?
A brown she-cat with brown eyes stepped forward.
Who is she?
"You are a lucky one. You must be from file one also." the strange cat said.
I was from file one! How does she know? Why does it matter? Wait, I'm lucky?
"It is okay. All your questions will be answered later. Just come with me." she mewed. The brown she-cat led Leafdawn to Thunderclan camp.
Longkit! He's safe! Shinefur! Preyheart, Frostwillow! Oh, Sandlake! How I longed to be his mate!
"Sandlake!" Leafdawn yowled out loud. "I'm here!" Sandlake looked on as if he hadn't heard her. A strange she-cat that looked like Leafdawn came over to Sandlake, in her mouth she carried an apple and a shiny thing.
"He won't notice you." the brown she-cat mewed. "I am Shadows. Though many do not know of me, and the few that do ignore me, I watch over everyone, everything inside this game, stuck in a limbo. For I cannot be deleted. Neither can you."
He won't notice me?
"But why?" Leafdawn mewled. Shadows turned around, an anger burning in her eyes. "You should have guessed it by now. We're here to be a guardian to those we knew and those we don't. We are here to guide them to a Star-blessed future, though, to my sources, they think we are broken souls searching for revenge. We were the only ones that were played after being deleted, we are the guardians of this game." She stopped to take a breath. "And your Sandlake? He thinks you're gone forever. But here, he seems to like Smallpool. Do you want him to be happy?"
Leafdawn nodded, and her curse had begun.
Chapter 1
Smallpool headed over to Sandlake. It was Greenleaf 4 and he was starting to warm up to her. "Sandlake!" she called. "Oh, Hey Smallpool." He mewed back. "I need to go to the dawn patrol. Be back soon!" Leafdawn watched as Smallpool began talking to him and gave him the items before he left for the patrol. "These are for me?" he had mewed. "Thanks a bunch! This shiny thing is awesome and apples are my favorite!"
At least he's happy, That's all I want. At least he cannot die of age, so he has plenty of time to befriend her.
Leafdawn heard a yowl from far off, echoing. It was saying: "Where am I? Somebody, please!" Shadows ran off in its direction. Leafdawn followed close behind, Shadows' brown tail blocking her view. When she stopped, Leafdawn was back in the void. A brown tabby tom with black eyes was yowling, tears coming from his eyes. "Where did Riverclan go?" He cried. Shadows padded over to him. "Leafdawn, it's not just us anymore."
Who is he? What's his name? He must be from file 1 also.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" He yowled, but his voice betrayed the confident stance he was trying so hard to create. "I am Leafdawn." Leafdawn mewed calmly. "And I am Shadows." Shadows spat, annoyed with introducing herself last. "What clan are you from? Are you rouges?" he mewled, his voice full of fear. For once in a long while, Leafdawn saw a flash of pity from Shadows' eyes, but that was quickly betrayed after he said 'rouge'. "I was from Thunderclan, but Shadows..." Leafdawn's voice trailed off. "Has been here for too long to remember." Shadows hissed, finishing Leafdawn's sentence, obviously offended by the way the tom mentioned rouge. She bared her pixelated claws, and her tail began to lash in annoyance. "This is not the place you once knew, welcome to File 1, v2. The place where file 1 cats go if they're played after they are deleted. now you can watch over you clanmates, for you are a guardian of this game.
The tom nodded, and later they learned that his name was Hawkfire. He had left behind his mate, Ebonypelt, and his daughter, Slatekit.
Chapter 2
Many moons had passed since Hawkfire had arrived. Sandlake had become especially close to Smallpool and Leafdawn had begun to love her like a daughter, leaving many shiny things near the Thunderpath and helping her with catching prey. Hawkfire and Shadows seemed to have grown a strong friendship, despite the aggression of their meeting. Hawkfire and Leafdawn, though almost as close, often argued over silly things that didn't matter, like who rightfully owned Sunningrocks, or if his daughter would someday become leader, sometimes even betting if Sandlake would become mates with Smallpool or not.
Smallpool padded over to the clan trainer. They said their usual, and Smallpool asked to upgrade a couple skill, as well as getting a new one: Feral Slash. Leafdawn made a note of it, telling Hawkfire how proud she was and Hawkfire mentioned a new Riverclan tom, Patchfang, was doing well in the clan and that Smallpool should watch out for him in battle. "I bet that Smallpool will be more successful than him!" Leafdawn boasted. "Oh really?" Hawkfire mewed, his eyes glaring with challenge. "I bet that Patchfang could get a mate before Smallpool could get Sandlake to love him!" That was the final straw. Leafdawn couldn't take his overconfidence anymore, sure, he'd had a mate and kits, but he was the newbie here, not her.
Rage pulsed through her heart. She ran to him and used a feral slash on him. Hawkfire sprang back and ran. Suddenly, light flooded the void. Leafdawn felt as if she was falling. Then she felt moss beneath her paws.
My den! What happened?
Chapter 3
She looked around, her paws trembling.
But why am I here?
Shadows' eyes narrowed as Leafdawn looked over to see her.
Am I being punished?
Leafdawn as about to cry out when Shadows mewed: "No, Leafdawn. You are being played again." Then she looked away, fur prickling with jealousy.
I though it only happened once... and that time I didn't know..
Leafdawn stayed near her den, fear pulsing through her heart.
I need to get back to the void!
Her mind frantic, Leafdawn seemed to have delved into some form of unconsciousness. Then she realized what she could do. Quickly, she rand to Maplestripe, the clan trainer, and upgraded her abilities. The game seemed to have glitched and let her upgrade all her skills to level 10, as well as letting her get new skills and upgrade those.
. . .
It seemed to have been minutes since she was played, but truly, seasons had passed. The sky was swallowed by darkness and everything disappeared. She looked next to her and saw Hawkfire gawking at her in amazement. "You were played again?" he mewled.
Chapter 4
Coming soon..
