I made this not because I wanted to, but because I needed to. This helped me get out some of the pain I felt from the news I received this morning(or in technical terms, yesterday morning). One of my classmates, Emily, passed away on Monday evening while playing a soccer game after collapsing and going into cardiac arrest. She was only in one of my classes, and she wasn't really a friend, but the pain alone from seeing her almost everyday somewhere left a huge gap in my life.
I can still imagine her in Global saying, " I'm gonna' be the first woman pope." I can still picture her picking at her tablemates for not doing their homework. She was a bright person, and though she had a bit of a temper, she was kind and focused.

Now some of you may be asking, "Why did you draw a [warrior] cat to remember someone?" Well, I did it because she was a fighter, she was strong and willful just like warriors are. That cat in particular here is named Rainfire, which is the result you get it you type Emily's name in the official Warriors name maker. And in a way, that name fits her character. Rain, caring and spirit brightening, fire, persistent and strong.

I think that's all I can say for now... RIP Elmily, you were taken far too soon, but we won't soon forget you...
