Slowly, reluctantly, Crystalpool climbed up to Swiftstar's den. The she-cat's smell hung off of the lichen and the moss inside. Anxiously, Crystalpool called out to her leader, but received no answer. Heart pounding, the lynx-like she-cat padded into the den.
And her leader lay there, dead.
Horror ran through her. Her leader, DEAD! Crystalpool's whole body shut down. Her mind closed off, and she was only aware of the grief coursing through her veins. She stood there for many long minutes, stunned. Then, she cried. She cried as much water as was in the river that they lived by. Her sobs could not be heard, and yet, she was guiding her old friend to StarClan.
She was the leader now. The thought crept into her mind, slowly, so she couldn't push it away. She would have to tell her Clan, then. Taking a breath, she left the den, after licking her friend's pelt one last time.
Goodbye, Swiftstar.
To: .Cry me a river.
