2. Ghostly

Ghostly~

Four cats sat around a glittering pool, drops of fresh water dripping from the hollow cave around them. Their mood was solemn, and eyes filled with fear. The smallest one, a pale brown tabby she-cat spoke first.
"What are we going to do? If we leave them be any longer, they'll starve!"
Her voice was shaking, and glistening tears formed at the corners of her eyes. The other looked at each other, expressions downcast. Unbeknownst to any of then, a fifth cat sat in the shadows, his blind grey eyes flickering at every sound. As the cats returned to their solemn silence, he faded through the walls of the cave. He ran through the sky, the frigid wind ruffling the few tufts of fur left on his body. Finally, he came to a halt in front of another cave. Padding through, his paws not even touching the ground, he came upon an old white she-cat.
"Only those who want to go will."
He murmured, before touching his cold nose to the she-cat's forehead. As the vision passed through, he left, his paws flying through the air as he returned to the sky.
