Leafkill looked at the other cats, most of them had forgotten why they were fighting and were now merrymaking. He hesitated, he should still continue the battle, he reasoned, but he also didn't want to be the only one. He eased his attacks and joined the other cats. His head throbbed as he remembered at he had a splinter in his skull. Leafkill dropped his haunches into the dust, releasing a cloud. He began to paw at his head, trying to reach the spot when it was. Soon he was rolling in the dust trying to get the splinter out, but he was only causing himself more pain. He got to his paw and shock himself, sending dust flying everywhere. He had enough sense left his head to understand that he could not get it out by himself. "Sunburn!," he called up the tree, "Can you help me?"

Applepaw snorted, Be my guest, go attack trees and make StarClan angry! She watched Burritoflight padded over to the tree to help. She waited a bit before heading to the apprentice's den, planing on retiring early. She found nest and curled up into ball and fall into uneasy dreams.
Applepaw was in a strange forest, pin nettles were underfoot, making it that where ever you stepped you would get a pin nettle stuck in your pad. But what was more strange was that the trees had leaves not pins. Where am I? she wondered. A full moon soared overhead with clouds threatening to cover it. A stiff cold wind ripped through her fur making her skin crawl. All of a sudden she wanted to no longer be here, run away. Applepaw raced through the forest, ignoring her screaming paws and the wind that seemed to be holding her back. A blood trail followed her. The forest grew darker, the farther she went. At last she found a spot that was clear of pin nettles. Instead it had a single apple seed. To tried to go on any farther, she curled up and went to sleep.
Applepaw woke up in her nest in the apprentice's den. Her paw were raw, bleeding and had pin nettle in them. There was not one pine tree in StuppidClan's territory. She checked the sun, it was only a little bit latter. What does the dream mean? she wondered. With her pelt quivering, she headed out to the main clearing leaving a blood trail.
(Can Applepaw become a warrior soon?) (By the way, the dream just gives her her warrior name. Appleseed)
