Chapter 6

I looked around the cave, taking in my surroundings. To my right was a crack, with the smell of many herbs wafting towards me. Behind me was a miniature waterfall leading down to a small pool of water. In front of me were brambles.

There was only the noise of small creatures moving around outside of the cave. Then, out of the blue, came the rustle of a much larger creature. The cat called Leafpool walked through the screen of brambles. She seemed surprised to see me awake.

"What are you doing up so late?" she asked. "I... I just woke up," was my simple answer. Leafpool yawned. "Go back to sleep," she said through another yawn. "I know I am.

Just out of curiosity, I asked, "What are you doing up so late?" She seemed nervous. "Just to make dirt," she said quickly. The nervousness faded away as she said, "Tomorrow morning, you'll meet Firestar," (A/N: Just remember, this is between the second and third series) "Our Clan leader. He'll give you your official Clan name." she paused. "Speaking of names, what is yours?" she asked, curious herself.

"Snow," I said. "My name is Snow." Leafpool yawned again. "Well go back to sleep Snow. Tomorrow, you'll know a majority about the Clan life. Goodnight.

"Goodnight," I replied. I laid down in my small nest of moss. After the moon had climbed a little higher in the sky though, I still hadn't fallen asleep.

It was strange laying in my own nest, without my mother and my brothers and sisters next to me. I noticed that Leafpool had some more room in her nest. I got of my own nest and crawled into Leafpool's She woke up, surprised. Then she realized that it was just me , and quickly settled down, wrapping her tail around me. We both fell asleep faster than we thought possible at that time.
