I can’t... you won’t... let me...” she whimpered, holding herself together.  She would rather die than let her be controlled again.  Die.  If I die, the dark side of me will also die.  Don’t die, you fool.  You have a great life ahead of you. her mind falsely comforted, but she wasn’t afraid.  She was ready.  However, something inside her realized that she shouldn’t die - yet.  She decided to promise to StarClan that she will die if she feels that she is losing control of herself.  ”Dear StarClan,” she began, reclaiming her conscience, ”I shall give my word to help the clans with their problems.  I swear upon my life.”  Unbeknownst to her, someone was listening to her utter those words.
