Thistle met Gray Wings eye solemnly Ill protect her he promised then scampered over the grass after his family Gray Wing stood and watched until they reached the bracken edging the woods His heart ached as they disappeared between the trees Please Clear Sky take them in He glanced toward the distant pines then looked across the moor Beyond its rosetipped crest the setting sun would be drenching Highstones Longing filled his heart and he broke into a run Charging up the moorside he dodged through swath after swath of heather until he emerged at the top Beyond he saw the wide flat boulder that jutted out over the steep drop down to the Thunderpath He hurried forward and climbed onto it The smooth windchilled stone stung his paws as he padded across He lay down and hung his head over the edge and gazed across the rolling fields that stretched toward Highstones Theyd traveled that way from the mountains What would Stoneteller have said about the lives theyd made here There was much to be proud of: new kits new homes As his belly rumbled once more Gray Wing wondered if he should hunt again But he couldnt drag his gaze from Highstones shining golden in the dying sunshine What would Stoneteller have thought of the battles they had fought and the deaths they had caused by coming here As the sun sank behind him and Highstones disappeared into shadow Gray Wing closed his eyes and let sleep draw him deep into dreams Gray Wing opened his eyes Scents swirled around him thick with memories A chill nipped his ears with a cruelty hed forgotten Water thundered behind him and he turned to see the waterfall that veiled the entrance of his old home from the crags outside Light shimmered through it and rippled over the cave walls Hello His mew echoed in the deserted cavern He scanned the dimples in the wide stone floor where his Tribemates had made their nests which were empty but for twigs and leaves lying shriveled in each hollow Where are you Worry pricked Gray Wings pelt He stretched his ears listening Far away he thought he heard faint mews Distant paw steps scuffed the stone but he could see no cat Had his Tribemates traveled beyond his vision Were they spirit cats now Quiet Rain Snow Hare Where are you His heart lurched as guilt scorched his pelt He should never have left them Had they starved without him What have I done Purring rumbled at the back of the cave Hope flashed in Gray Wings heart He peered eagerly into the shadows and caught sight of a tail whipping away into the tunnel He hurried after it blinking as darkness swallowed him His paws ached on the freezing stone His whiskers brushed the walls and his tail snagged on the jagged roof Whos there he called anxiously into the blackness Suddenly the tunnel opened around him and he emerged into a cave lit by moonlight which seeped through a hole in the roof Sharp claws of rock jutted up from the stone floor and down from above Some touched like paws meeting and they glistened as water trickled down them It pooled on the floor sending light flickering against the walls An ancient white cat watched him from beyond the pools her tail twitching softly behind her Stoneteller Gray Wing blinked Was she all that was left of the Tribe She didnt answer but touched one of the pools with a forepaw sending ripples shivering across its surface Gray Wing padded closer Im so sorry he began I never stopped to think how the Tribe would survive without us Hush Stoneteller lifted her green gaze to meet Gray Wings You have nothing to apologize for But the cave Gray Wing wailed Its empty And its my fault If only Id stayed Gray Wing Stonetellers mew was firm You cannot decide the fate of every cat You do not hold power like that Then why did you bring me here Surely it was Stoneteller who had summoned him to see the empty cave Whats happened to the Tribe Stoneteller looked down into the pool as the ripples faded All will become clear soon enough she murmured For now you must let go of the past The future is the only thing you can change A shriek jerked Gray Wing awake He blinked at the dark valley stretching below him The mountains beyond Highstones were no more than shadows against the starry night sky The Tribe He jumped up Where are they The shriek sounded again It tugged him from his thoughts The moor was bathed in moonlight the grass turned white by frost Back off He heard a vicious yowl from beyond a patch of gorse Gray Wing recognized it at once Slate He leaped from the stone and charged over the top of the moor skidding on the grass as he swerved around the gorse Slate was backed against its sharp spines A fox snapped at her hind legs then her muzzle its sharp teeth glinting in the moonlight Slate hissed and shrank deeper against the thorns Blood darkened her pelt Eyes blazing she slashed at the foxs face with a forepaw but it dived for her tail She whipped it clear just in time The foxs jaws slammed shut on thin air Yelping with rage it lunged for her neck Leave her alone Gray Wing pl
