The Silent Thaw/Chapter 18

==Chapter description==
:Shadowsight returns to ShadowClan after his realization about his vision at the Moonpool. He is greeted by an anxious Clan and his father reveals that Dovewing left to atone for her codebreaking. Confused, he asks Tigerstar why didn't he stop her only for him to reveal that she wanted to go. Puddleshine confirms that it was her choice for her Clan to not suffer. ShadowClan warriors begin voicing their opinions on the manner, all agreeing that if she atoned ShadowClan would be given better luck.
:Tigerstar believes StarClan will watch over his mate while she atones, but, Shadowsight reveals that StarClan are silent and that his visions had not come from them. Both Tigerstar and Puddleshine are shocked at the development and decide that it must remain a secret. However, Shadowsight disagrees and believes they have to warn the other Clans. Puddleshine is against the idea, but, Tigerstar states that he will deal with that and that they have to find Dovewing. Shadowsight and his father leave to search for her.
:They track the she-cat to Twolegplace. Tigerstar reassures Shadowsight for his mistake, telling his son that any medicine cat would've done the same thing. The young tom is grateful for his father's words as he keeps up with him on their mission. As they arrive in Twolegplace, they lose Dovewing's scent, but, soon find her resting under rubbish. Dovewing is shocked to see them both and is reluctant to leave her atonement. However, Tigerstar reveals the truth about Shadowsight's visions to his mate. The three cats soon leave Twolegplace as Dovewing agrees with her mate's concern over the vision. Shadowsight is again grateful for his parent's support and feels a sense of foreboding as they return to ShadowClan. He wonders if his realization about his visions had come too late to save the Clans from being destroyed.
