"Farewell, Aquaheart," she whispered from above. "Cloudheart sends her wishes."
~~~~~~~~~
Reaching the area where she had seen Aquaheart commit suicide, Tailglades felt her pelt shiver and quake, even with Billowcloud beside her.
"Aquaheart? What happened?" he inquired curiously. It wasn't everyday that the dead rose back to life.
ooc: g2g. Cello lessons.

ooc// Awww..... Bye.......
Aquaheart looked up and saw Billowcloud and Tailglades, she only faintly remembered them. "Um... I'm not sure. I just woke up and was right here..." she meowed, half telling the truth and half lieing.

Billowcloud's maw opened, as if to press further, but he quickly shut his lips. She had just suffered a traumatic experience. Now was not the time to press for details. Turning to Tailglades, he sent her a look that clearly said, "Don't tell anyone about this or I'll run you out."

Aquaheart looked at Billowcloud and then had a flash. She saw a tom she seemed to be in love with but he was with another cat whom she faintly remembered as Fayreign. She then was looking down at five little kits as they suckled from her belly. They all had wings. She was deeply confused by this. Was I talking care of someone's kits? Was I in a different clan? she thought and shook her head, pushing it all away.

Uncharacteristically sympathetic, Tailglades lowered herself to allow Aquaheart onto her shoulders. "Get up," she mewed. "I'll help you through." Even the most selfish of cats was showing her true colors. Shaking his head, Billowcloud was baffled by the new development and overall character growth. Tragedy had shown her kindness somehow.

Aquaheart looked at Tailglades. "Are you sure you can carry me? I'll follow you," she meowed.

Head ducking down, Tailglades trailed after Billowcloud, checking behind her every once in a while to be certain that Aquaheart was following her. "Let me know if it gets to be too much." Her tone was warm on the surface, but for those who dared to delve deeper, her true feelings lay almost raw and undisturbed.

Aquaheart followed through the forest and would remember things at the sight of them. "Oh yeah! I remember that!" she would say or, "Hey! That's the training hollow!"

Makes sense. She fell hard enough and bonked her head as well as her entire body. But how is it that she's not hurt at all now? I swore I saw her bleeding and broken before, Tailglades thought. It just didn't make sense. Shrugging it off as if it were an everyday occurrence, she slowed her pace a bit to let Aquaheart catch up. She supposed they should thank StarClan for returning her life.

Aquaheart looked at the tree and memory flashed. "Hey! This is the tree my parents and I first met a RogueClan cat!" she exclaimed as she stopped and looked over at Tailglades and Billowcloud.

Downturned lips met the exclamation. Billowcloud didn't know everything about this she-cat, and so he was a bit puzzled by what she'd said. "First met...?" He exchanged a confused look with Tailglades. Shrugging, he realized that she knew about as much as he did. They decided not to ask.

Aquaheart continued on behind the two, still remembering lots of things.

When at last they reached the camp entrance, Billowcloud pushed through the clearing silencing any cats that wandered too close to have a peek and ask their questions. Tailglades kept her face hidden as she followed Billowcloud towards his post. Of course it would make sense to lead her into an isolated, desolate part of camp that the deputy usually occupied.
"You can stay here from now on. I'll build you your own den to keep you away from prying eyes. Don't tell them anything," Billowcloud commanded. "Tailglades, go fetch me some logs." She dipped her head in respect and ran off.

Aquaheart was really confused. "Don't I sleep in the warrior den? Like all the others?" she asked. This was different then her life before. Maybe next time I'll officially join StarClan she thought.
Tawnyspots came bounding up. "Aquaheart! Aquaheart!" she exclaimed. "I heard you had committed suicide! I'm so relieved you didn't!"
Aquaheart purred as she especially remembered her former apprentice/best friend. Why did I commit suicide when I have a friend like this? she wondered. "I would never abandone you though Tawnyspots, know that," she told her friend.

Billowcloud rushed to her side. "Of course she didn't! She was stopped in the nick of time! Now please leave us be." Waiting for the she-cat to retreat, the mud-colored tom paced back and forth, pondering what to tell the Clan. Then he remembered Aquaheart's inquiry.
"Not for now. They're going to badger you with endless questions and prevent your well-being. We have to make certain that you're in your right mind. I'll go ask Driftmoon for some poppy seeds or thyme. Wait here and don't move." Trusting that she was amnesiac enough not to disobey his orders, he left her to herself and scampered off towards the medicine cat den.
