Devilsoul pelted through the neutral territory, approaching the sacred land he could see in the distance. Dream Falls. He smiled warmly, sighing in relief. He was almost there. His aching paws did not relent or show mercy, despite this fact soothing him mentally. He yawned, feeling sleepy very suddenly as he entered the 'official' beginning of the land, where the grass got taller and seemed, if possible, a little more beautiful.
He glanced around, skidding to a stop. With a tiny muttered protest, he trudged towards the water's edge, which seemed farther than it should be. His good mood had dissapated in a matter of seconds when he remembered he still had Fury to worry about. Fury hung over him like a shadow looming in the dark of night, never truly leaving him. He was doomed to always have this phantom haunt him in his dreams and take control when he wasn't paying attention. He hoped somehow DreamClan could help him, but he doubted this deep inside. It was a childish hope, one that most certainly would not ever be fulfilled. Right?
He was at the shore now, if you could call it that, and bent down to lap at the water below. Next thing he knew he was standing in a large green clearing, with skies of violet blue and swirls of pink the color of a sunset. And yet despite the lighter sky, stars still showed brightly. One star suddenly erupted in a shower of light, becoming a cluster of stars and swooping down to the ground next to him. He jumped back as it took the shape of a cat, though faded. His breath caught in his throat and he blinked, taking in the cat. It was Erminefire, an AshClan tom he had met at Gatherings. He was muttering about being the only one to welcome Devilsoul when suddenly more eruptions of light began...

It didn't take long for two more cats to join Erminefire, because soon, standing side-by-side, Brokensilence and Silentword were there. "Sorry Erminefire" Silentword said to the AshClan tom, "We're a bit late" Brokensilence finished his brothers words.

'Being late means nothing. It merely prolongs the process of which we are all gathered for.' A white star, burning a brilliant white-blue streaked down from the heavens, brushing across the sea of emerald grass before molding itself into the shape of a slender feline, fur as white as the fresh snow during leaf-bare running along the length of the cat's skeletal structure. The female's white pelt shimmered with a faint silver sheen as though the very stars from above lived within her fur. Green-blue pools of liquid adorned the feline's sockets as though they were gems as priceless as the forest from whence she formerly lived. Whitecloud's lucious gaze flowed from gazing upon Brokensilence and Silentword to the glittering form of Erminefire. 'Does it not, Erminefire?'
Another star cascaded from the vast expanse above, this one pulsating a ruddy red color. The same phenomena occured as had happened with the arrival of Whitecloud. From the fire came the more muscular frame, that of a tom-cat. A sleek and well-cared for pelt rippled across well pronounced muscles as the cat faded from the red hue of the star to that of his true pelt color; a dusky brown color with darker stripes of brown extending along his structure, as though someone had taken an ashen stick and dragged it across the tom-cats pelt. A pair of glowing iris' beamed from the tom-cat's skull as he sauntered gracefully to stand beside the birlliant white pelt of Whitecloud. His pelt, too, seemed to resemble the stars winking at all gathered. 'Greetings to you, Devilsoul.' Thistleclaw murmured, his voice warm with welcome towards the tom-cat.
ooc// I know I also have Hollyfeather who is deceased, but I will wait for a response before introducing her. [/size][/color]

A speck of light shimmered in the distance for an instant, and then out of the reeds came a slender femme, flecks of black fitting into white fur. Yellow orbs glowed like the sun was captured and put into a feline's eyes, her gaze resting on the tomcat known as Devilsoul. She bowed her head to him in respect, and when her skull lifted, she murrowed, "Welcome, Devilsoul." Flicking her audits to the others, she murmured an apology for her not being there on time. She had been a resident of DreamClan for many, many moons now, but of course she was still herself, and therefore she still had trouble being right on time. [/color][/center][/blockquote]

Another light show and then Stormstar stood before the others, not looking one bit embarrassed as she stepped to Thistleclaw's side. Her pelt brushed against his and she smiled, then turned to the other newcomer. "Not as late as me," she purred in amusement, then her attention snapped to Devilsoul. "Weclcome."
Devilsoul looked lost about now, crouched low to the ground. Slowly he raised himself from the ground, eyes flashing with curiousity. He wondered agai bitterly if DreamClan could banish Fury from his body, but shook the thought harshly from his mind. Ears pricked as he realized they had been flattened furiously against his skull, and he took a deep breath. "I'm..ready..," he muttered, glancing around.
Erminefire looked around as well, and seeing no objection, stepped forward to touch noses with the tom. "With this life I give you the gift of understanding. Understand other cats motives, and know when things happen its not always your fault, and to not blame DreamClan," Erminefire meowed. In his life, if he had this gift, he may not have gone mad from the guilt and the thought that Jaypaw's death way his fault.

Seeing no other cat rise to give the live cat another life, Rippedwhisker got to her paws, and took a few pawsteps to Devilsoul. Bright, shimmering yellow orbs met emerald green, and her maw turned upwards. Her neck bent, and she touched her nose to his. 'With this life I give you the courage to face challenges that may appear unexpected, and the bravery to handle them without hesitation. Refusing to flee from a dilemma that can affect a single life may help you make a positive change in the lives of those around you.' Her voice hid the pang of a thorn piercing her heart; she fled her Clan when she was close to giving birth, therefore her mate and kits, and her Clan had been affected when she died kitting. When Devilsoul had his second life, Rippedwhisker backed up, and dipped her head to the tom before returning to her original spot, sitting down. [/center][/blockquote]

By this time, Hollyfeather of BeachClan had arrived. It was not announced as the others had been, seeing as they had begun the process of giving Devilsoul his lives. Rather, she had slid up silently from a distance, preferring not to make a show of her arrival. Blue-green iris' followed Thistleclaw as the former DuneClan leader made his way up to stand before Devilsoul. The tom lowered his brown tabby skull till his nose touched Devilsoul's forehead. 'With this life, I give you wisdom. May it guide you in times of greif or times of trouble so that you will not falter upon the path DreamClan has laid before your paws.' Pale yellow eyes shifted to gaze up at Stormstar, his mate. He had lost all wisdom before, and it cost his kits dearly. He hoped Devilsoul would not make such a mistake.
As Thistleclaw stepped away from the tom-cat, Whitecloud moved forward. Her brilliant white fur shimmered as she flowed effortlessly to stand before Devilsoul. Blue-green iris' flashed stunningly as she lowered her head. 'With this life, I give you the gift of freindship. May you forever hold your friends dear and stay their minds and paws from leading them to trouble.' Hollyfeather advanced next, dipping her head toward Whitecloud as the BlazeClan warrior backed away. Cream-white fur glistened as though the stars had been dappled across her coat as paws glided across the lush ground. Performing the same movement as the others before her, Hollyfeather spoke. 'With this life, I give you the gift of appreciation. May you always care for the land given to you by DreamClan and look upon it as a beautiful reminder of our gift.' [/color]

(OOC: For his ninth life, I want it to be the gift of self-control...to stop the phantom, Fury, from taking over...)
Jaypaw hopped forward next with a tiny smile, touching his nose to Devilsoul's and saying quietly, "With this life I give you the gift of loyalty. Use it well to help your friends and family, no matter the cost," he mewed solemnly. It was something Jaypaw had followed all of his short life.
Devilsoul winced as he relived himself what Jaypaw had gone through as he died; he must have been an AshClan cat, he thought, He fell into the volcano to save Erminefire.
