Truly Alone

[~Blizzardsky~]

Blizzardsky sat on the open moorland, letting the soft wind billow through her white fur. The moor looked as if it expanded all the way until the ends of the earth. The white she-cat felt truly alone. Her best friend, every memory, every proof of her existence was gone. Her mate and kit were gone. It was as if she never even existed.

Blizzardsky's shoulders hunched over, and a huge sigh escaped from her mouth. She looked down at her paws. Nothing around her seemed to matter anymore. On top of her best friend leaving, Silverwhisp was dead. no longer there to cure cats' sicknesses. It had been moons since Pepperclaw's death, and she still wasn't able to forget it. Now she had to deal with the death of her daughter too, and for the same reason.

It was exactly a year. It was the same exact dog. And it was the exact day. Everything seemed to be collapsing.

Blizzardsky looked up at the blue sky. Thick white clouds drifted across it. One word broke the silence of the moorland, "Why?"

Whiteheart's tail flicked back and forth sweeping the moor. Wasnt life supposed to be peaceful? If it was it didnt seem like it. Everything had turned upside down after the Death of Rainstar. A soft breeze drifted through her fur bringing the scent of rabbit to her nose. Lowering to the ground she spotted the rabbit ahead. The sound of bird chattering in the skies blocked any sound she made for she soon was burying her kill. Deciding on a path she headed towards the creek. Stepping up onto the rocks she sank to her belly and stared into the water. Moments later a streek of silver flashed out of the water and lay flopping on the shore. Whiteheart pushed herself of the ground carrying the fish back to the moor.

[~Blizzardsky~]

Blizzardsky closed her eyes and breathed in the familiar scents of the moorland. The rabbits, sparrows, fish swimming in the creek: all of this was the most familiar to her than anything else. Being outside of the camp made her feel more relaxed and happy, and gave her some time to think about things. However, a scent struck her muzzle that interrupted her thoughts, and recognized Whiteheart. The white she-cat also recognized the faint smell of prey, and she began thinking of the last time she had eaten. Clearing her throat, Blizzardsky sat up and shook the brush out of her fur, heading over to her clanmate.

Whiteheart twitched her tail as the slimy fish slipped from her teeth. Growling she lowered her head to pick it up but instead smelled another cat. Concentrating on the smell she recognized Blizzardsky. Sitting down she cruled her tail over paws to wait. For some reason she felt uneasy. She could smell lonliness coming from Blizzardsky, along with her hunger. Setting aside the largest of her catch, a rabbit, she piled dirt on the rest of the prey. She could get it later, right now she would let Blizzardsky eat while she searched for more food. Making sure not to go to far she left the rabbit in the sandy hole next to her other prey and walked into a lone bush to hide and wait.

[~Blizzardsky~]

The white she-cat swept her eyes over the ground, a strong scent of prey flowing into her nostrils. She stopped as her paw thumped against a solid figure, and looked down, glimpsing the body of a rabbit among the leaves. She closed her eyes, her stomach growling in anticipation, and then shook her head. "Whiteheart," she called, "You know I can't eat this. It goes back to camp first." Blizzardsky sat down and stared at the rabbit solemnly, all traces of hunger seeming to vanish.

[Seasons]

A birds loud alarm call rang through the sky as Whiteheart screech of fury rounded the moor. "I almost had that bird!" she hissed coming through the weeds. "Oh... Blizzardsky, its you... Hungry? the rabbit is for you. Its not like i am on hunting patrol." Whiteheart's soft voice was barely more then a whisper. Her tail curled up in pride as she golanced over the rest of her prey. A thrush, a rabbit, a fish and two birds.

[~Blizzardsky~]

Blizzardsky purred, closing her eyes, making them turn into upside down crescent moon shapes. "Oh no! I couldn't eat this rabbit all by myself. I might get a belly ache!" she meowed, "Wanna share?" She gave the rabbit a sniff, and it's warm scent wafted into her nostrils, as she bent down to eat. "By the way, I think missing one bird isn't going to kill the whole forest," she mrrowed, under a mouthful of rabbit fur.

[Seasons]

Whiteheart flicked her tail with a smile. "I ate before i left camp. I planned to give you the rabbit anyway." "You know..." she started staring at the ground "i heard i have some new family members and well... i waswondering if you though Butterflystar would let me go over to Lightningclan for a while..." she stuttered.

[~Blizzardsky~]

Blizzardwky paused between a mouthful of rabbit, as it seemed to get stuck in her throat. She gulped it down, and sucked in a few deep breaths. "What Butterflystar chooses is not up to me..." she began, sitting up straight. He icy blue eyes stared at the she-cat, and she forced a smile. "If you want to go there for awhile, then I'm not stopping you. I know what it's like to have different family members in different places."

[Seasons]

Whiteheart sighed. This was not the answer she was looking for. She had hoped that since Blizzardsky was Butterflystar's closest friend now... She sighed. Greykit would have to wait. Walking over to the fresh kill she picked it up and walked into the bushes without saying anything. Stopping for a moment she looked over her shoulder and walked on.

[~Blizzardsky~]

Blizzardsky sighed and shook her head. "I blew it," she meowed to herself, "I know that wasn't the answer she was looking for. Once again, I've left someone down." She didn't feel like going back to camp. The multitude of cats in the camp made her feel sick. She wished everything would reverse, and she wished that time would turn back on it's self. She wished that she could start her life over. A drop of rain splashed onto her muzzle, breaking her thoughts, and she looked up towards the sky. It was growing cloudy, and the next thing Blizzardsky knew, she was drenched with the sky's million tear drops.

[Seasons]

As Whiteheart neared the camp she looked up towards the crying sky. "Are you up there, watching me?" she meowed. "I hope i have made you proud." Her father, her friend. Gone. Whiteheart had thought of Rainstar as her closest friend. Weaselstar had been her father. She had felt she could rely on both of them but they were gone now. All she had was her brother, and of course her new nephew. Her pelt clung to her sides as she crawled under a bush outside the camp. She didnt want the others to see her like this. Some of them still didnt think she belonged among them but they were friendly, all the same. She watched as the rain pelted her prey. It lay beside the log to cross the stream. Its stillness, never again to move. It reminded her of Rainstar, laying covered in blood that fateful day. The sky had grown dark and broke out in a fierce storm that night as the cats kept vigil, whipping there fur about. Some of the cats went to there dens but she, Whiskertail, Blizzardsky and Butterflystar plus a few others stayed. The rain did not let up until two days later. No one had wanted to do anything. That is until Whiskertail gave her speech.
