After a long and tiring day, Gingerstar retired to her den where she got some much needed sleep. Her daughter was still not out of the woods and she was afraid that Parrotpaw would die. "How could I have been so stupid in letting untrained apprentices come? If Ivypaw hadn't disobeyed my orders then her sister would have died. Oh StarClan... am I really suppose to lead this Clan when I act like a worried mother fussing over her kits?" The ginger she-cat yawned and curled up in her fresh mossy nest and laid her tail over her nose. Soon she was fast asleep.
Everything was dark. Gingerstar was afraid she would not be able to see StarClan this night. Leaves rustled and voices whispered on the wind, but other then that there were no sounds. Even Gingerstar's screaming didn't register in her dream. Suddenly a cat appeared out of nowhere. It was Freestar! "Freestar what is happening? Why can't I see StarClan?"
Peace dear one. StarClan is with you, but you must listen to me. A time of danger is approaching. You MUST get to the Starpool to hear our message. Only then will things become clear. I sense Eclipsestar already there. Hurry for there is no time to saunter around. Remember danger is approaching!
"Wait! Freestar what do you mean? COME BACK! FREESTAR!"
The Gingerstar cat began running after the retreating figure, but she could not keep up. Soon she had lost all traces of Freestar and the ginger she-cat was falling, falling, falling.
Eyes wide, Gingerstar found herself sitting up and panting. She saw her daughter was peering in at her curiously. Gingerstar beckoned with her tail, "Ivypaw. I must leave for the Starpool. I need you to go to Stargazer and have her prepare some traveling herbs for me. Freestar told me danger was approaching and I needed to be there. You have some leader experiences because of me. I put you and Desertthorn in charge while I am away. Make sure your sister is being guarded. I want NOTHING to happen to her while I am gone."
Ivypaw nodded and rushed out of her mother's den and to the medicine cat's den. "Stargazer? My mother says she needs traveling herbs. She has to go to the Starpool."
