AN: Previous chapter was Leafpool! As if you didn't guess...

I really like this one. Read it very slowly to get the full effect...

Heartbeat

I creep

She shivers

I see her wince

I know she's scared

She knows she's dead.

I don't care

How long it takes

I will get there in the end.

I've waited so long

With bated breath

It's hurt so much

This long journey

But now my plan it will succed.

I pad across the den's stone floor

I grab her throat

I hear her yowl

I hear her heart beat in her throat...

But I'm too late

I savoured too soon

And now I wander

Apart from her doom.

AN: This is my favourite so far. It's something I've been preparing for a while.
