Whisper slipped out of her den and trotted around the camp. She stopped in front of the flower's den. She breathed in the heavy scent of herbs lingering at the entrance. Her icy blue eyes searched the camp for any movement. The moon hung from the sky providing enough light for her to see her shadow prancing alongside her. Whisper sprinted quietly back to her den and leaped onto the lowest branch of the Shade Oak. When she couldn't sleep, she often came here to clear her head. Thoughts swirled through her mind, but one stood out especially. Shadow. She felt a stab of pain. She shook her head and told herself not to think about it. He wouldn't want her to be sad. She gazed down upon her empty camp. The jet black she-cat's tail swished, just brushing the tip of the branch. She waited for any cat to come into the clearing in the center of camp. There was always at least one of her friends who couldn't sleep either, and occasionally she would let them join her on the branches of the Shade Oak. Her slender frame cast shadows on the ground. She was still very young, only about 11 moons old. She knew she was far too young to be a royal, but she was tough enough and no cat challenged her. And she had her friends. She knew that Chrysanthemum would stand up for her, ans she hoped that Vortex would. He seemed like that kind of cat, but then again, she hadn't known him that long. She assumed that Rose would be okay with Whisper being leader, and she couldn't even imagine tiny little Lotus objecting to her leadership. Fury seemed like the kind of cat who might challenge her, but if he did, she had friends to protect her. And she was an excellent fighter herself. And Hiddenbranch would help her. She pushed these thoughts from her mind. Here she was thinking about all these cats, but would any of them come out of the dens? She jumped to the next branch on the Shade Oak to get a better view of the huge camp, still glancing at the entrances to the dens every once and a while to see if any cat emerged.

Rose, restless in the night, padded out of the flower den to see Whisper on the Shade Oak. //rushed

Whisper smiled as the petal came from the den. She leaped down from the Shade Oak and glided over to Rose. "Hi," she purred softly, "how are you?"

Crysanthemum heard a noise as she lay restlessly in her bed. She rose to investigate. She padded silently out of her den and into the open. There she spotted her petal, Rose, talking to Whisper, the royal. "Hello, Whisper," Crysanthemum mewed, padding over to the two cats. She dipped her head to Whisper. "Hi, Rose," she greeted her petal. "Couldn't sleep?" She asked, addressing Whisper.

"I'm good," she addressed the royal. "Hello Chrysanthemum."

"Hi, Chrysanthemum!" Whisper meowed as the flower joined the two she-cats. She felt the sudden urge to leap on one of them. She pushed this feeling down. Even if she was still very young, she was a royal. She had to be serious. She held back a sigh.

"I couldn't sleep. I had a nightmare about Star being killed. It was like experiencing her death all over again," Chrysanthemum confessed. "Does that ever happen to you, Whisper?"

" Well hello Chrysanthemum, Rose. Hello Whisper," Fury padded up to the small group, head held high. He reached Whisper and bowed. " Is everything alright?" ( I didn't make it someone watching someone else ths time! Amazing!)

the dark Bengal tom stalked over, his icy blue eyes glinting in the light of the moon. vortex arrived at the group, his head high and chest out. he had an air of authority about him as he scanned over the group. he dipped his head to whisper in respect before nodding to everyone else who had gathered. "greetings." he meowed. he didn't speak very often. but when he did, it was often wise.

lotus yawned and padded shyly up to the cluster of cats. ''h-hello? i-s it ok if i stay out here with you guys? i couldn't sleep.'' she had been dreaming about haveing a mom, and she had woken crying and restless from it all. she longed to see whisper who she looked up to and related to becouse they bolth had the same feeling about the word 'family'. she also liked hiddenbranch because she wanted to be her apprentace in training. she hoped he would be as good at accessing as she had heard and that he would place her as his app.

Rose glanced over at Lotus before turning to Vortex. "Hi," she said shyly, and turned back to Whisper.

Chrysanthemum gave her chest fur a lick. "Well if this many of us are awake, we may as well begin patrols. That is, if no-one wants to go back to sleep. And, of course, if it's okay with you, Whisper."

Whisper's feet had frozen to the ground. She couldn't speak. Her throat was dry. A few minutes had passed before she answered Chrysanthemum. "Yes," she choked. She couldn't even think about what happened without freezing. Then she turned to Fury. "Everything- everything's fine." She greeted her general politely and then turned to Lotus with a smile. "Of course you can stay." Whisper had always felt close to the young sprout, like they were related. She padded over to the she-cat. "Would you like to come climb the Shade Oak?" she asked, trying to cheer Lotus up.

"Oh, and yes, of course. Vortex, would you mind arranging the patrols?" I think I'll stay here with Lotus."

"Rose and I would be happy to go on a patrol as well," Chrysanthemum added to Vortex. It never hirts for flowers and petals to keep up their hunting skills.
