Softsky was collecting herbs. She rarely talked to anyone, and she always seemed so far away. She looked up ,seeing a black smudge. The heat made it blurry, but she was sure that it was a cat. Softsky padded toward it. Just then, the black smudge vanished. Softsky shook her head. She thought she saw a mirage. It was common in the heat, but luckily, the heat was cooling down ever so slightly. Softsky shrugged and went back to her place. When she reached to an alcove under a Ruin, she saw that black smudge. Before she knew it, a thin cat was before her. The thin cat was a small she-cat that was as black as the darkest night. She looked a bit transluent and her eyes were so pale they looked colorless. All around her, Softsky could hear screaming. Being close to DreamClan, the cat took her to the time when that she-cat was dying in the graveyard. Softsky gave a yelp of shock and fear. The she-cat stood by her. "Do you understand..." The voice sounded far away, and it had a haunting beauty to it. "I am almost dead.... HELP ME!" Softsky fell to the ground, but soon got up. There, the she-cat stood before her, but this time, she was more......solid. "What's-" "My name is Nightengale." She whispered. Her voice sounded more hoarse, as if she hasn't used it for quite a while.

A thin, black figure was approaching the to she-cats. His dark green eyes were clouded, and he was looking down at his paws, deep in thought. Before he knew it, he was right in front of the two cats. Ebonysky looked up, just in time to hear Softsky's loud yowl. Then he looked over at Nightengale. "Where did you come from?" He asked, moving to stand between her and Softsky. Since he was deputy of the clan, he felt as if he should protect the medicine cat from this strange cat if she decided to attack.

"Help me!" She criend. You could see Nightengalee's form becoming hazy. Softsky could smell blood. "Ebonysky, can't you smell that?" She whispered.

“Yes, I smell the blood.” Ebonysky whispered, his green eyes focused on the strange she-cat in front of him. Then the tom gasped. The she-cat was starting to fade away. “How can I help you?” He asked, his eyes shining as he began to panic.

Nightengale looked at him with the saddest eyes ever. "Find my body.....Heal me before I die....." She faded away, leaving only the scent of blood, fear, and anger.

"But where is her body..." Ebonysky whispered. Then he looked up at Softsky, his eyes filled with sadness. "Did she tell you where her body was?" He asked, glancing back at the spot where the strange cat had been not too long before.

Softsky shook her head sadly. "No, not exactly. Oh poor thing!" As a medicine cat, she felt that she needed to help this she-cat, but she didn't know how.

Ebonysky closed his emerald green eyes, trying to think. We should try to look for her. He thought. But we don't know where to look. The black tom shivered as he remember the ghost-like figure of the she-cat. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Softsky. "I think we should try to find her. She can't be too far away.... can she?"

Softsky looked at the dueputy, feeling totally helpless. "i'm not sure. I don't know how we could find her." A steely determination entered her eyes. "As long as I live, I will help any cat in need. I think we should start asking around. What do you think?"

"Thats a good idea." Ebonysky meowed, nodding his head. Determination blazed in his eyes as he looked out over the horizon. "I think we should start in the uncharted territory though. The loners there won't be a hostile towards us as other clans might be if we trespassed on their land.

Softsky nodded. "Should we tell someone? I mean it would look suspicious if the deputy and medicine cat left..."
