______________________________

Pinepaw had just closed his eyes when he felt a pull. It was tugging him somewhere, but he didn't know where. Or how. He tried to dig his claws into the ground, but it didn't help. A final tug sent him tumbling into a dreamscape.

"Woah..." he said, looking around. A grassy clearing with flowers everywhere reaching as far as he could see. Beautiful waterfalls cascading into rivers that flowed endlessly. It was so calming. And he could scent herbs. He knew the names of a few, but there was so many he didn't. He turned, scanning the terrain, when he saw a figure.

Squinting his eyes, he noticed the cat was heavily scarred. Looking even closer, he saw the pelt of the cat. A pale gray and brown calico with blue eyes. It was a familiar pelt, but it couldn't be. She was dead. She had to be.

"...Springlight? Why are you here? Why am I here?" he asked. StarClan cats could pull cats into dreams, but why him? He was just an apprentice. He was a nobody.
