  " Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die..."=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Broken looked down at the ground and once more covered her muzzle with her tail "I only said that because I thought I was dead." she mumbled "When you die you can generally say anything and not have to mean it" she was a pretty good liar but having Slasher inch closer to her wasn't helping. She brushed her fluffy black and red tail up a little more so it covered her whole face "Aren't I suppose to be resting?"

I will be the lightning...  _____________________________________
[Fester nervously backed away from Talon.] "N-no Talon. I just, thought i saw something is all. I am sorry to bother you, i will take my leave now." [He then turned to the entrance of the cave and flew out to his own. Sirin watched him leave with worry and Talon watched with deep suspicion.] He is hiding something.... hehehe Fester you have made your last mistake. I have you this time!
[Fester quickly retreated to the solitude of his cave. He let out a sigh of relief, once again being alone besides the sleeping shadows healing from their battle.] Am i going crazy? That cat wasn't normal, i could see right through it! But what was the weirdest part is that i saw it with my blind eye. Why? WHY!? [Fester slumped down to the ground covering his head with his raged wigs, trying to calm himself. Once he pulled himself together he looked up to see the same spirit hiding in the shadows of his cave. His mismatched eyes locked with the cats as he flinched back.]
"Who are you!? What do you want from me? Are you hear to haunt me? Go away! I dont even know you! Just leave me be! Leave me be..." [Fester shouted in panic as he backed away from the ghost.] "Why are you even hear? Do you have no place to go?"

" Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die..."=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Broken's muscles tensed when Slasher's fur rubbed up against hers, they didn't tense out of fear or anything like that, truth was she enjoyed it. But Broken would never admit it to herself Note to self: Ask if you're dead before you say stupid things! Broken hissed in her head. A cold wind brushed into the cave "Um Slasher? It's leafbear isn't it? Could you um...uh...never mind..." she called out to Slasher but ended in a mumbled.

"What? No, of course I'm not cold" Broken said, mainly trying to convince herself "I only lost about half my blood, was attacked, then captured, then attacked again and then walked back here -all with short fur I might add- of course I'm not-" Broken shuttered as another breeze rushed in "c-c-cold. Though I'm suppose to stay still so I guess I couldn't stop you from laying down over here with me" she mumbled

 "To live is to slowly be born."_____________________________Embergaze_____________________________[Embergaze peered out at the bird, his eyes peeking over the twig-filled nest. They glinted out at the bird called 'Fester', orange and narrowed.
Okay, he thought frantically to himself. I've got two options One, tell the truth and see what he says...but that could backfire into some freaky experiment thing. Two, pretend I'm some ancient spirit come to curse the flock. But they'd just think he was crazy or something.
...or I could stall.
...yeah. I'll just stall.
His eyes burned like the embers of hellfire as he snarled in response.]
"You're the ones who brought me here," he spat, "not me. I had no say in the matter."

I will be the lightning... _____________________________________
[Fester narrowed his eyes in confusion to the ghost's angry response.] He is here because of me? How did that happen, i have not killed in the war, i am a medicine bird, not an assassin. "h-how so ghost? Please tell me, i have not slain any warriors, and i most certainly do not remember you. You would think that you would haunt a assassin, not a half blinded, torn up doctor like myself. Please spirit, i am lost, i do not understand. Are you trapped here?" [The witch doctor stared at Embergaze with his dead silver eye, his face with an expression of awe and confusion.] Has one of my actions i some way caused this spirit grief in his life? Is that why he is here? All i wanted was to help my flock.

"To live is to slowly be born."_____________________________Embergaze_____________________________[Embergaze snorted, lashing his tail. Just keep talking until he asks direct questions, he decided.]
"Hah!" he retorted, "Never killed a cat, eh? And I suppose the fact that you're healing the killers has nothing to do with the many cats who have lost their lives so far. You don't even seem to realize how much suffering could have been prevented if you had never joined this flock! Talon would be dead, and everyone'd be just fine!"
[Embergaze's eyes narrowed, and a wave of pain rolled over him.]
"Icemane'd be fine..." he muttered, mourning the death of his old mentor at the hands of the eagles.
He lost his inhibition then, and stood, revealing his full form. His muscles rippled in anger under his pelt, though he was still a bit translucent.]
"YOU are as much to blame as the rest of these black-hearted fiends who kill without question! YOU help them kill innocent souls out of spite for another stupid bird! YOU cannot hide from that! It will ALWAYS stain your soul, and being ignorant of it will only lead you to the Darkest Forests of all time!"
[Embergaze panted now from the effort of his yowling at the bird. Pain and suffering crossed his face for those lost to the birds. Saltpaw...Icemane...everyone...are you happier where you are...?_____________________________To live without you is to live a hollow life.

I will be the lightning... _____________________________________
[As the ghost spoke Fester's fear and wonder was replace with anger and hate. He puffed out his ragged feathers menacingly as he stomped forward, his anger growing with each step.]
"I am fully aware of that ghost! And you are one to talk? Your warriors have killed and caused much suffering among my flock!
I have to see the horrible wounds you inflict upon them every day of my life! Some of them still haunt me in my dreams! There are fledglings among us who will never know the love of a mother and father because of you cats!
You dont even know why i have chosen to be among Talon's flock! You could never understand! My heart holds no malice for Avalon, only love for my flock.
You clam to know of the blackness within our hearts,
that is wrong!
But what bothers me the most is that you believe you are so right that my flock is destined to suffer once they pass. How do you know that you are not wrong! The monsters you describe us as fits just as well to you and your warriors! It is not fair to judge us so when you have never seen though one of my flock's eyes! ....Just as i have never seen the world through the eyes of a warrior."
[The doctor's rage swelled into pain as a sad and hopeless look crossed his face and his hate died inside. He buried his sorrowful face within his ripped up winds as he paced away.] "I am sorry you have lost loved ones to the claws of my fellow eagles, but you must understand that i have lost many to your fellow cat's claws as well.
You are a selfish cat ghost, it is not easy to remain neutral in a war, and it is not easy to hear every day that you will be damned for the love you give to your kind... I am so tired of hearing that from all the ones who commit cruel acts against us. How do they live on when we suffer. The only difference among our actions is a different leader and a different view."

"To live is to slowly be born."_____________________________Embergaze_____________________________[Embergaze shifted on his feet, narrowing his eyes. The bird has a point, he thought.]
"We only kill them because they attack us," he replied a bit more calmly. "After all, we didn't agree to join leagues with a group of evil spirit-cats to destroy your flock. Besides, we're just getting dragged into this whole Avalon-Talon thing. We never asked for it and would've left you alone if you'd let us be!"
[Embergaze huffed, but his eyes showed sympathy.]
"I wasn't talking about your whole flock," he muttered, looking away. "I was talking about those assassin-things. The...'shadows'. They're the ones who are heartless, really."
He sighed, sitting down with a tired plop.]
"We can't begin to try to understand you while you're tearing us to shreds, you know. It's kinda hard. Anyway, Talon's your real problem, you know. He split your flock up and pinned them against one another. Maybe Avalon wasn't the best leader, but that doesn't mean you have to kill each other out of hate because of it."
[Embergaze looked back. This bird wasn't like the others. There was something different about him that made Embergaze trust him more.]
"...'sides, I'm not a ghost. I'm a living cat. So to speak."_____________________________To live without you is to live a hollow life.

I will be the lightning... _____________________________________
[The doctor looked up from his sorrow. When the ghost spoke of the shadows Talon shifted his gaze to the sleeping shadow curled up in the corner covered in medicines and cobwebs. ]
"The assassins shadows? You must mean the assassins. They are our equivalent of your warriors, the shadows are a group for a different perpouse then fighting in wars... how do you even know about the shadows?" [Fester looked down at his large talons.] "The assassins are meant to protect us, but things change over time... They are just as at felt as the warrior cats."
[Fester looked up when his leader's name was mentioned. He had always respected Talon and his bravery ever since he was a fledgling among Avalon's flock despite the fact that he showed much malice towards him. He never understood why he hated him so, he just accepted it as a fact of life.]
"I believe that Talon is trying to do what is best for us. He is trying to return us back to the glorious cannon we once lived, where we have food, water, and shelter and no one starves or passes in the cold night. But ever since he saw Avalon again he has sown much pain in his heart..."
[Fester let out a sigh, remembering how much love his leader had for her once, how love could transform into such hate was frightening and odd to the eagle. The doctor looked up with confusion when the ghost claimed to be alive.]
"Alive Mr. Ghost?" [Fester gave a concerned and grieving look.] Dose he still think he is alive? If i died suddenly then i guess i would have a hard time letting go to the life i knew too...
