Lost Stars/Chapter 10

==Chapter description==
:Shadowpaw looks around at the warriors, who look like they cannot believe it. Tigerstar encourages him to tell the Clans what had occured by the Moonpool, and when Shadowpaw finishes speaking, the assembled cats are doubtful. Reedwhisker asks if Shadowpaw was dreaming, adding that he has seen what lightning strikes do to cats. The RiverClan deputy states that if Shadowpaw had actually been struck, he wouldn't be here to tell the tale. Shadowpaw is self-conscious, knowing that Reedwhisker is right, but responds he can only tell what had happened. 
:Nightcloud asks the tom what the voice said. Mallownose speaks before Shadowpaw has a chance to say anything. The warrior addresses the crowd, questioning why a ShadowClan medicine cat apprentice received a message from StarClan when no other cats has. He asks if any cat can believe what Shadowpaw has to say, for ShadowClan cats are troublemakers. Shadowpaw sees that most cats are bristling, suspicious of him, and Tigerstar leaps down to his side. The brown tabby suggests that the leaders should speak to Shadowpaw alone, his voice commanding. No cat objects, to Shadowpaw's relief, and Tigerstar leads his son over to one side of the clearing with his mentor, Puddleshine, following them. 
:Shadowpaw begins by telling them about the voice that had spoken to him, feeling less nervous since he is only speaking to a small group of cats. He explains that the voice said that darkness in the Clans must be driven out. When Bramblestar asks if he had heard that voice before, Shadowpaw shakes his head, confirming that he is quite sure. Harestar says Mallownose had a point, and asks why only Shadowpaw has received messages. Shadowpaw doesn't know the answer, and Tigerstar replies that his son has always been special, since he had visions since he was a kit. He explains that this time was the only time he had visions without seizures. Leafstar wonders if his vision was real, since there was no seizure. Tigerstar insists that what Shadowpaw is saying is true, and turns to Puddleshine, asking for his thoughts.
:Puddleshine hesitates, then says that he believes Shadowpaw, but is not sure what to make of it. The Clan leaders decide to discuss it with their deputies and medicine cats. Tigerstar warns them not to take too long. Bramblestar thanks Shadowpaw, giving him a friendly nudge. Shadowpaw feels a strange, chilling sensation, and he thinks that Bramblestar's touch felt deeply wrong.
