Why can't I get it right!? Nightpaw glared in frustration at his sister, Ashpaw. Her sightless but still fiery-as-ever amber eyes glared at him. Ever since she had been blinded and Saviorpaw had left them he couldn't do anything right. He had gotten so far, now he couldn't pull off one move without blundering and messing up. Even Ashpaw could beat him! He growled at himself. You've got to put more wieght on your hind legs. A voice in his mind, which Nightpaw was sure was not his own, whispered to him. He pricked his ears. Who had said that? He lookde around, baffled. You won't find me there, Nightpaw. The voice murmured, a hint of amusement in the mysterious, lonely tone. Nightpaw's pelt prickled. Where are you? He thought, confused. I'm in your mind, Nightpaw. You wish to see me, am I correct? Yes! Nightpaw thought. The voice let out a soft mrrow of amusement. And you shall, tonight as you lay down to sleep. Before you close your eyes, murmur this: 'shadows of night, and shafts of moonlight, fall upon those who have made wrong of right.' Then you shall see me. Nightpaw blinked. Ashpaw was crouching.
"Ready to try it again?" She growled, her breathing quickened. Weight on the hind legs... right. This time as Ashpaw lunged at him he was able to nimble leap from the way and press his paw against her back, shoving her to the ground.
"Nice work, Nightpaw!" She exclaimed breathlessly. He was silent. He wanted to know who this cat was. Ashpaw seemed to hesitate.
"Are... are you thinking of him?"
"Yeah." He murmured softly, though it was partly a lie.
"I miss him, too, Nightpaw. But... but we've got to be loyal to our Clan!"
"What is that without Saviorpaw?" Nightpaw asked bitterly. Ashpaw's eyes smothered him with sympathy, but he didn't want it.
"I'm going back to camp." He growled, shoving past her. She turned.
"Nightpaw..." She pricked her ears and just heard a voice on the breeze. That cat is gone, young one. And there's nothing you can do to get him back.
