After Honeydew had left, Sandstar became serious. "I don't have to say this twice, Faithsong. I gave you your final name. I made you something better than an apprentice. What more do you want?" she paused. Then she sighed. "I was silently hoping S-... Star... Clan... would visit you if you were... special. Mute and a medicine cat... right up their ally."

Faithsong, though shocked and confused, just nodded. She didnt want to fight with her leader and silently, she agreed with Sandstar. What good was a mute warrior to ThunderClan, anyway? So, offering an understanding smile, she left to 'tell' Honeydew and Waterlily.

Suddenly, being a medicine cat didn't seem so bad. That was, until morning came. And Darkflame and Deadheart were gone. Faithsong ran blindly through the rain in search of their scents, but she knew even if she found it, she couldn't alert her Clanmates aloud out alone in the forest. She couldn't give up hope, though. They wouldn't just leave them like that....

She was slipping again. Fawnshadow tried to keep her busy, and Mintpaw also provided some help with her grief. But Faithsong couldn't blame anyone. Not even when she so desperately wanted to.

But now... what about the prophecy?

[Deleted]

Darkflame and Deadheart were no more. In their place, two rogues who were brothers and preferred to stay away from the clans. They had fled the territories... They were a good distance away. Far enough to discourage searching parties, but near enough to change their minds.

Darkflame became Kage.

Deadheart became Carmine.

How they found these names.... Let's just say it came to the two brothers in a dream. The prophecies had tried to reach them... Repeating in dreams. Alas.... They eventually gave up.

On the bright side... Kage and Carmine were happier than ever.

They were so happy... They started to forget their old life.... Their old bonds.

[Deleted]

tears came to Honeydew's eyes when she heard about the other cats running away. She turned to waterlily. 'You should have made it sound more vital to come and ask us about the other meanings.' with that Honeydew ran out of the clan. Waterlily knew it was no use to run after her so instead she went in search of faithsong. It took a while, but eventually She found the mute cat. 'Faithsong, we must talk.' She said. 'It is my fault that they ran away. I knew that they would if they didn't hear the other meaning to the prophecies. The best I can do to make up for it is have you go to Honeydew and ask the same. I could tell you... but... my version is more like a prophocy. Her version is strait forward.' Waterlily said.

[Deleted]

Faithsong just stared at her, to numb to speak. She slowly nodded after a minute, her silver eyes closing when they started to grow watery.

[Deleted]

Honeydew truly hated to fight with others. She had tried not to, but she couldn't control herself. Now she didn't know where she was. all she knew was that this was where the roughs and loners live. She thought back to her last dream from starclan. What had Deadheart and darkflame rename themselves? It had been been Kage and Carmine. She finally thought. She may as well meke use of herself where she was. She cought scent of Kage and followed it until she saw Kage and Carmine 'Kage, Carmine!' she called.

[Deleted]

Sitting beside Kage and Carmine was a she-cat of beautiful white fur and blue eyes. She flashed the strange Clan cat a confused look, before turning back to the rouges. "Do you know her?" This white she-car smelled of water and trees, and had a look of power in her legs. Instead of having the usual rouge-like appearance or personality, she acted like a... a Clan cat.

But it wasn't a scent the four Clans had ever known. It was SkyClan, and she was Icewish.

((Yolo it... xD I personally <3 SkyClan... not most of the cats or that everyone is a kittypet and everything, but... yeah.))

~~~~~

Faithsong was dreaming. She was standing in a clearing, a warrior of starlight towering over her. And then the warrior spoke.

"When clouds are overcast,
You shall see,
The faith that isn't
Inside of me.

The skies will come,
Bringing light in their paws,
The silent song not heard,
For blood spills from their jaws."

Now, she was given her own prophecy.

[Deleted]

Kage and Carmine looked far from the cats they once were. Carmine looked more healthy than he had in the past, being only allowed to eat the scrappy leftovers. Kage was also healthier, finally being allowed to actually go out and do things. Being the prized jewel of the clan, he had never been allowed to do things properly. Furthermore, their eyes were different. 

Carmine's eyes were cold and piercing.

Kage's eyes were dark and hateful. 

Kage and Carmine answered the question and the calling with one line.

"We don't know her. She's a clan cat... From those filthy four in the Forest. They should leave." Kage growled.

Carmine grunted. "Hn. They have no place here... If she doesn't leave..." He leaned forward and slid out his claws. "We'll make her."

[Deleted]

Honeydew looked at the cat. She knew this cat. It had to be sky clan. She remembered that as sky clan scent. 'Ice wish!' She said as she reconized the cat. 'It has been a while.' Honeydew knew this cat from a long time ago. They had once met when she was made and stomped out of the clan. 'Honeypaw! What are you doing here?' She asked. 'Well... I sort of got mad again.' To this Icewish nodded. 'How do you know Kage and Carmine?' The sky clan cat asked. 'Well, it truly has been a while. We should talk about those prophecies I told you about.' Honeydew said. Icewish frowned. 'New prophecies?' Honeydew shook her head to this. Icewish sighed. 'Who ran away? Deadpaw, dark paw, water paw or faith paw?' She asked. 'Well, to start off with, we all became warriors. I am honeydew. Then there is waterlily, faith song,dead heart, and darkflame.' Honeydew said. 'It was darkflame and dead heart, or, how you know them, Camine and Kage.' 'Is this true?' Icewish asked turning to Carmine and Kage.

[Deleted]

Carmine hesitated and then nodded. 

Kage glared ferociously. "We ran away because the clans aren't worth it. So we got some prophecies that we have to save them... Why do we have to do it anyways?! According to the ones me and Carmine got... It says we have to sacrifice ourselves! And what have they given us, huh?! If you ask me..." Kage's voice kept rising in volume until he was screaming. "NOTHING! NOTHING BUT SUFFERING! THEY SHOULD GO BURN!! BURN FOR ALL I CARE!!" 

Carmine nuzzled against his brother's side to try and calm him down. 

Carmine sighed and looked at Icewish and Honeydew. 

"Yes. I was Deadheart. Kage was Darkflame. We ran away because we didn't feel any reason to stay in the clans. We're not coming back. If you try and make us.... We'll move again. Farther from the clans. You're already a full day and night journey away from the clans."

[Deleted]

'Before you leave please listen to the other versions of the prophesy.' Icewish said. 'Honeydew, please tell them what the prophecies also mean.' Honeydew nodded. 'This will help you understand.' Honeydew said. 'So far they have all had the same two meanings. Even  yours. One says that the clan willl never have hope of believing in starclan again. In that one we all die. It says that if we leave each other then this path will be taken. In the other version we all live and the clan believes in starclan. The path that we take is now in your paws. If you choose to leave then we all die for nothing. If you leave then I am traveling with you. If you choose to come back to the clan we live, and the clan starts believing in starclan.' Honeydew said. they had to believe her. It was true and if they had only paid attention they could have found it out themselves.

    Waterlily came back from the talk with Faithsong. She had ended up telling her the meaning of the prophocies. Faithsong had promised to travel with the other cats if they came back and decieded to leave agian. Waterlily walked into Sandstars den. 'Where is Honeydew?' The leader asked. 'She left. I want you to do something for both me and Honeydew.' Waterlily responded. 'If Deadheart comes back, We need everyone to stop being mean to him. If not then me and faithsong will follow them and you will have five less cats in the clan.'

[Deleted]

Icewish had once met Honeydew when the ThunderClan cat was an apprentice. She was a member of SkyClan-yes-but she hadn't seen her Clanmates in moons because of the prophecies. Being she was the forbidden offspring of a medicine cat and a warrior, she never felt as if she truly belonged. Then, the prophecy came to her mother. And she was sent on the long, grueling journey to find it's meaning and the four Clans along the way.

"Honeydew, don't force them." she warned, casting kind eyes onto the two. "They were born with too much expected of them, and no final outcome really proved. What do you expect? Them to blindly accept this fate? StarClan should have known kits were too young to decide such things." She gave the toms a sad dip of her head, eyes sincere. "I'm sorry for all you have been put through. You don't have to follow the prophecy. You can have your own life. But... do think of the Clans. When you became a warrior, you made a pledge to give your life to them. The cats within it may be cruel, and heartless, and even unforgivable... but they follow the warrior code, and know that they may not be remembered in the stars forever, but they will be remembered now by their friends and families for their sacrifice. They are true, honorable cats despite their ways."

Icewish sighed, shaking her head sofly. "I'm sorry. I'm probably angering you. I should have realized that... but, well, I suppose all I can say is... if you need any guidance, or maybe a paw by your side. I'm willing to be there." With a flick of her fluffy tail, the she-cat left towards the forest, away from the four Clans. She wasn't ready to make herself known just yet.

~~~~~

Faithsong had been pondering the prophecy. What did it mean? The faith that isn't inside of me? she repeated, looking sad. Was she going to fall? Just like Deadheart and Darkflame's prophecies?

She gave the sky a thoughtful look. Whatever would happen to her, she wouldn't mind. In StarClan, she could speak. In StarClan, she was loved just as much as down here.

But in StarClan... her friends weren't there.

((I got confused. So is Honey and Water sisters, and Faith, Dead, and Dark siblings? Or were they all siblings??))

[Deleted]

(Well, origanally dead and water were siblings and honey faith and dark were siblings.)

    'I do not want to force you to make a decision.' Honeydew said. tears had been trying to seep out of her eyes for a while now. She still refused to let them flow. 'After all, I was in your situation too. When I ran away the first time because I had gotten mad. I had been missing for days. If it weren't for Icewish there would have been no chance of me coming back.' The tears started to seep out of her eyes. 'When i came back, none of you had even noticed that I was missing!' Honeydew had always held back her true powers. This time It had gone to far. she extended her claws. she knew she wouldn't be able to control herself. In truth only she and Icewish knew her true power. She took a few deep breaths and calmed down. She would not let them suffer the terrible pain from the wounds. She could hardly bare seeing how she had hurt Icewish. She hadn't even known Icewish then. With someone she knew she would probably kill herself for wounding them. 'Please, you must comeback with me.'

Carmine shook his head. "We're not coming back. You say if we go back.... Everything will be just peachy. You don't understand. The cats of the clan weren't just mean.... They were straight down cruel. Sadistic. They were afraid. And for good reason..." He never had told anyone of the strange power he had. "They don't know. But I know they can sense it. They hated the monster they saw me to be. But really..." He flattened his ears and narrowed his eyes. "Even a monster like me was given the honor of becoming a warrior. Faithsong was denied that right. Until you forced Sandstar to change their mind. Hmph."

Kage bared his teeth at Honeydew. "We're never going back. Not ever. Don't you remember Carmine's prophecy? 'The clans shall bathe in starlight forevermore, the saviors of Dead Darkness, Sweet Faith, and River... Shall fall before demons, never to be repaired'?" He snorted. "You say... If we go back... Everything will be fine. We save the clans." He started screaming again. "IF WE SAVE THE CLANS WE SACRIFICE OURSELVES!! NOTHING WILL CHANGE!! YOU HAVE TO FACE THE CRUEL TRUTH OF REALITY!!!" He slid out his claws, it seemed almost as if he was going to attack her. "CATS AREN'T FORGIVING!!! THEY'RE CRUEL AND LET FEAR RULE THEM!!! THERE IS A REASON THE CLANS ABANDONED THE STARLIGHT!!! AND I SEE WHY!!!" He lunged at Honeydew's face. Claws out.

Carmine moved forward to shove Honeydew out of the way of Kage's attack. 

"Run. Run for your life. Don't come for us again. Kage has too much hatred in his heart."

[Deleted]

Honeydew refused to leave. "I accept that you feel this way. I will accompany you in leaving. If you refuse to come back then I will remove the threat that I place on the clan. I.... well.... I am not your littermate. I was not born to the clans. I was born part wolf. My mother was a fierce cat that had managed to make it into the wolf pack." Honeydew looked at carmine and kage. "My real name is lumine. The clan was forced to raise me. It is my fault that all of you were treated as bad as you were. I wish I had the corage to tell you this before." Lumine said. "Only water lily, sandstar, and I knew about this."

[Deleted]

Carmine stayed silent. This was a surprise. At the very least, better than his story. 

Kage continued to scowl. Without another word, he stalked right off.

Carmine looked at Honeydew. "Well. Since you spilled the beans. I suppose I should tell you the secret I've only told to Kage..." The eye of his that wasn't red, bled into a color identical to his other eye's. There was a blast of darkness and a large fox-version of Carmine stood there. 

"For whatever reason..." Carmine went on. "I somehow was born an actual demon. No idea how. This is why the clan shunned me. Heh. Suppose the reason they loved Kage so much was because he was the only cat in our litter... Faithsong was mute, I'm a demon, and you're part-wolf." He frowned, as he shifted back to his regular cat form. "Does Waterlily have any secrets? Or is she, like Kage, at least kind of normal?"
