Kindlestar’s breath hitched in her throat as the space before her appeared to shimmer like a reflection of starlight on a freshly disturbed pool of water. Was she dreaming? She had to be. As the shimmering seemed to take a form of its own a sharp ache took hold of her chest.

“Russetfur…” the name choked from her lips. Her shoulders sagged as a smile spread across his face. She’d seen that smile from him all her life. She had grown up teasing that smile out of him, being comforted by it, and watching it console dozens of injured or sickly. Just seeing it now brought on such a wave of memories and coaxed a pained smile onto her own face.

It hadn’t even been a few days since she had lost her dear friend, and to see him now renewed the agony she had felt on the day her patrol had found him. Tears stung her eyes and she had to avert them from his fluffy, starry figure. When she looked up again he was padding toward her, his eyes gentle and caring as they always used to be, and pressed his forehead against hers. She lost her composure at that moment and collapsed against him, unable to hold back her tears, “Russetfur! Oh Russetfur I miss you! We all need you back here, the Clan needs you- I need you!” she wailed into his starry coat. She wasn’t sure how she was embracing him- or his spirit- but she didn’t care. It felt like him, and there was even a faint scent of him surrounding her; herbs and berries and the lightest hint of earthy soil.

He never uttered a word, just held her close. When at last she recomposed herself and was able to stand on her own, she looked back up into his eyes. He gave her another smile, then gently pulled away. “Goodbye Kindlestar,” the words whispered around her like they were carried on the breeze and the ache took hold of her heart once again.

“No, you can’t go yet! I have to know something first!” she cried, but his starry form was already fading away, “Please, I have to know! Who killed you? Was it MoonClan?” she shouldn’t have even expected an answer, and she wasn’t given any. The last glimpse she caught of him was the deepest anguish and agony reflected in his vanishing eyes, and then he was gone. She awoke desperately crying out his name.
