Sparklestar decided to do something she should of done long ago - There was a Phrophecy that never was fulfilled.
"A Sparkle will go on a dangerous Journey,
Onto the Mountain top.
From here they will recieve healing drops,
Which will save the entire Clan."
Sparklestar carefully got up, trying not to disturb Brackenpelt, and ran out of her Den. She found a hollow rock that could hold Liquid inside it. She picked it up and attatched a vine to both sides of it, then she slipped it over her head and wore in like a Necklace. She bounded towards the Mountain - She was beginning her Journey!

Brackenpelt woke up, Sparklestar had gone. He went over to Sunstream, "do you know were Sparklestar is?"
"No, she ran out of camp before dawn and hasn't come back yet, I'm worried, It's already sunhigh," answered Sunstream.
Brackenpelt ran out of camp, ignoring his aching muscles and wounds. He followed Sparklestar's scent until he came to the mountain, were he lost the scent, he had been running for a while now, so he caught a mouse and kept going. "I'll go up to the top of the mountain, I might see her from there," he mewed to himself. After about ten fox lengths of hard climbing, Brackenpelt's wounds were bothering him and he started to stumble, suddenly his paw slipped and he fell down the mountain to the ground were he slipped out of consciousness again. His wounds reopened and blood flowed freely from them. -
By then, Sparklestar had recieved the Healing Drops and was heading down the Mountain. She saw Brackenpelt, and gasped. "I knew he was going to do something clumsy, at some point." she muttered to herself as she dragged Brackenpelt back to Camp. Once again, she got some Burdock Roots and Chervil to stop infection, made Brackenpelt eat some Coltsfoot to help his shortness of breath, used Goldenrod to help heal the wounds, and then fed him some Poppy Seeds so he could sleep.
-
"I'm sorry," Brackenpelt croaked as he woke up, "I was worried about you, I was afraid... the dogs..." he trailed off but didn't lose conciousness, he just lay still.
-
"Open your mouth." Sparklestar commanded. When Brackenpelt had opened his mouth, she dropped one Healing Drop into his mouth and it ran to the back of his throat. "Now, swallow." she ordered. Healing Drops are very valuable, because they have the power to save any Cat from the Brink of Death (in other words, if a Cat swallows a Healing Drop, they will still have their wounds but they won't die, no matter what).
-
"What was that?" Brackenpelt gasped as an ice cold feeling seared through his body.
-
"That was a Healing Drop. When I left and went to the Mountain, I collected Healing Drops in this bottle." Sparklestar purred, holding up the hollow stone attatched to the vine necklace she was wearing. "They are very valuable, as they have the power to save any Cat from the Brink of Death." she murmured.
-
"Why did you give one to me? Why didn't you leave it to save a more important cat?" asked Brackenpelt, shaking his head before stopping because it hurt.
-
"You are important..." Sparklestar whispered. "...To me."
-
"And you to me, that is why I was so clumsy today, out there," whispered Brackenpelt.
-
Sparklestar's pupils shunk into tiny dots. "Wh-What?" she stuttered.
-
"I wanted to climb up to you and I slipped," Brackenpelt muttered
-
"How did you know I was at the Mountain?" Sparklestar whispered.
-
"You left quite a clear scent trail, and then I wanted to go up the mountain to see if I could see you from up there," Brackenpelt mewed weakly, he had barely any strength left to talk.
-
Sparklestar dipped her head. "Ssh... Save your strength." she whispered, licking Brackenpelt's cheek. She curled up with him.
-
In this moment a single thought flashed through Brackenpelt's head 'kits' and he wondered if he'd ever have any, he sighed and started daydreaming about tiny claws tugging at his fur and needle-like teeth pricking his ears as he purred.
-
That same thought also struck Sparklestar's mind. She looked into Brackenpelt's eyes as he looked into hers. They read eachothers thoughts.
-
"Would you like to... have kits?" Brackenpelt asked hesitantly.
-
Sparklestar nodded slightly. "Yes." she whispered, moving closer to Brackenpelt so their stomachs and chests were touching.
-
Brackenpelt purred and curled up against Sparklestar.
