A Warrior's Will Chap. 8
It was the middle of the night when Snow woke up for her dream. At first she did realize where she was. Then she remembered. Snap out of it Snow, you can't go back for a while so stop dreaming.
Getting up, she made her way over to the entrance of the warrior's den and walked out into the chilly night.
"What's up Snow?" a voice behind her made her jump. A handsome white and silver tom with grey spots had walked up to her.
"I'm sorry I don't think we've met." Snow said cautiously
"I am Snowstorm. I was appointed night watch tonight. What's troubling you Snow?" his eyes were full of concern as he sat down.
Snow had a hard time looking away from the gorgeous eyes. They were a brilliant blue like hers. She couldn't help but tell him about her dream. She explained about her mentor and Mist and why she was chosen. While Snow was talking, Snowstorm was listening intently.
Finally her story was coming to an end. "And that's why I'm here, because no other cat can do what I am requested to do." She felt relieved to be able to tell someone about her troubles. But suddenly she stopped and looked up at him.
"You promise not to share what I have told you, right?" she croaked. Her throat was sore from talking all morning.
"Yes of course. Don't worry you have my word." Snowstorm mewed with amusement. It was dawn already. Cats were starting to come out of their dens.
"You- you probably need to go." Snow stuttered quickly, not wanting to be seen with Snowstorm. She padded quickly away, but not before she glanced back in the hansom cat's direction one last time before running into the warrior's den to find her friend, Bluerain waking.
