((Heyo! Runningdawn! How's it going? Meh, sometimes I really hate making forms. xD))
Thornclaw watched from the skies of Star Clan as he saw his good friend, Smokeyeye, yawn and leave her den. He sensed a heat wave coming, a giant drought that would make the forest dry and parched, thirsty for water. He should warn them, in a dream somehow, and he got up, his muscular body tense with worry for the forest's health. Thornclaw lay down under a tree in Star Clan and closed his eyes. His spirit walked out of Star Clan's skies and padded down to Smokeyeye. She wasn't sleeping though, and it wouldn't work. But, he didn't always have to visit in dreams. This was okay.
"Smokeyeye!" he called in his rough, powerful voice. "I carry a warning from Star Clan. There is a drought coming, a huge heat wave that will rid the forest of any kind of moisture. There is nothing a cat could do except hang on through the heat wave. I just wanted to warn you so you would be prepared, good friend. I miss you dearly, and be prepared for the storm that follows the drought."

As Aspenleaf finished organizing her herbs, she saw the spirit of Thornclaw, the former deputy, talking to Smokeyeye. Leaping forward, she called out to Thornclaw's spirit.
"Aspenleaf!" Thornclaw purred. "I bring not a prophecy, but a warning of a drought, a heat wave, and the storm that follows every drought. Fear not, for tough cats like you will survive. However, I thought it would be nice to give you fair warning. I need to leave now. Farewell, friends." Thornclaw stepped back into the sky, leaving a trail of stars behind.

Soulstar sidestepped Cherrypaw's move and grasped her scruff easily. He gave her a gentle shake, hoping to disorienate her, but not too much.
