Rosefeather sat, almost as if she was stone, silent. She had been so busy if the passing moons, how long had it been since she really looked at the sky? Too long, she cursed herself. The night was full of mysteries, and yet, most of her clanmates slept. Sometimes, she wondered if fate and destiny exsisted. Were they all part of some big plan, or were future events part of their imagination? She shook her head of confusing thoughts. As her eyes followed the path of a fallen warrior, the world seemed at peace.

Flashchest padded silently through the undergrowth, he couldn't get to sleep and to go for a short walk, he caught the scent of another cat and followed it. Eventually he came to an open area and saw Rosefeather. "Hi" he meowed as he stepped out into the pale starlight.

ooc: Yey! Someone replied! Thanks!
"Ah, it's you Flashchest. Isn't the night beautiful?" Rosefeather looked back at the sky. "It almost makes me forget my duties as deputy. It's overwhelming to think that all the warriors I've seen die, are up there, watching us. Even my good friend Whitemoon, how I miss him." Rosefeather's wiskers twitched. "But enough of the depressing talk, why are you out here alone?"

Flashchest to a moment to reply, he blinked and walked up to Rosefeather. "I couldn't get to sleep" he meowed. "I thought I could do with a walk". He looked up to the sky and saw the thousands of blazing starclanners. "You're right, it's a lovely night, and I'm sure Whitemoon is watching over you." he looked back to Rosefeather. "Why are you out here?"

OOC: Oh, this was open? Didn't notice until now.
IC: "That is a good question, Flashchest." Thawpelt mewed as his dark blue eyes reflected the moon's light. His snow white paws slowly took him to the young warrior and deputy. The tom sat neighter beside Flashchest nor Rosefeather, but in his own area close by. His eyes flashed from each cat, knowing that he may have to answer the same question as Rosefeather. "The elders keep asking me if the depuy is still alive, because they hardly see you." Thawpelt paused to lighten his tone, hardly noticing how he talked to Rosefeather as if she was a equal and not the deputy. His odd brown tabby tail rapped gently around his paws. "Does something trouble you?"
As Thawpelt spoke, he couldn't help but shift a bit from his hind leg. It was still a bit tender from the healing, ever sense the fight with Fierceclaw. Hopefully Rosefeather wouldn't remember. The dark black (?) tom had once challenged the deputy's power after all.
The Skyclan warrior was slightly hunched in his sitting possiton. The warrior was tired, yet couldn't get sleep. Confused, yet understood everything. Ever sense he and Snowstep became friends, everything seemed alien to him. There were no biteing coments when he woke up, in fact, once he missed a mouse on perpouse just to see if Snowstep would claw his fur off for it. Nothing normal seemed to be happening. In fact, the ones he called mother and father were not even that. Sunset was his sister, Forestfur his brother, Treestar his father, and Moonrise his mother. They all were in different places. Two in Earthclan, one a rouge, and the other in Starclan. What did he really have to live for?
All of this kept Thawpelt awake. But he couldn't tell these cats if the question came to him too.

ooc: wow, i thought my post went though.
Rosefeather looked at Flashchest and Thawpelt. "No, nothing troubling. Did you know Whitemoon was killed by his sister Silentkill?"

"What about Silentkill?" Snowstep happened to hear the name spoken by Rosefeather. her light grey pelt looked almost white under the moon, and her eyes almost totally blue from the reflection of the starry sky. she couldn't sleep well because it was cold without the warm bodies pressed around her. she padded over and sat down, her tail a little fluffed from the coolness of the air. she glanced at Thawpelt and gave him a little smile before turning her attention back to Rosefeather.

Thawpelt twitched his whiskers at Rosefeather's comment. Silentkill killed Whitemoon? The odd colored tabby warrior let his leaf-bare darkened eyes rest on each cat in turn. Why did Thawpelt suddenly feel uncomfortable? Why did he feel as though he had missed so much? The Skyclan tom shifted as his sour leg rubbed the Earth the wrong way. His tail-tip twitched as his jaws parted to speak. "She killed kin, just to become leader of the tribe?" After these words, Thawpelt went into a long moment of thoughtful silence. Many thoughts slowly lined up to pass threw his head, before his heart sank. Could he ever kill Treestar, Sunset, or Forestfur? Just to become powerful? After all the thought, Thawpelt closed his eyes for only a few heartbeats as he spoke once more. It was a question Rosefeather may not be able to answer, but it had to be said. The question would destroy Thawpelt from the inside out if he didn't say it.
"Do you think it was worth it?"

Rosefeather nodded. "Yes she killed her kin to gain the respect of her followers and prove to them she could leave the Clans without hesitation. I sit here and wonder, why can he forgive her? Froststar was devestated and went to WaterClan with their father. Of course, she had to work hard to gain acceptance." Rosefeather looked back at the sky. "I'm sure Silentkill regrets it everyday." she wispered half to herself.

Snowstep blinked slowly, then looked down at her paws. she still remembered when Silentkill was still Silentrun, and was a really fun and hard working warrior. And she remembered Whitemoon, always loyal and accepting of everything. And Froststar, Frostfall then. Everything seemed so perfectly fine back then. But... what had made Silentkill want to lead the tribe? Was there something deeper into this that no cat knew about?
She glanced at Thawpelt in surprise when he asked Rosefeather the question. And... it looked like that question had more impact on himself than the Skyclan deputy... but why?
She saw the sorrow in Rosefeather's eyes. it hurt to see her friend be in so much pain. She couldn't help but feel the bitter tug inside of her, on how things have gone so horribly wrong in the past... so wrong that it may never be changed in the future.

Rosefeather looked back to the past. No one was sure what made Silentrun suddenly turn sides. Sure she was little, different, but everyone accepted her. Only three cats knew of what Silentkill left in the Clans, Whitemoon, Silentkill, and Rosefeather. Maybe Silentkill would come back for those things. Maybe a good cat was still inside of the confused and mislead creature. Rosefeather sighed.

After a bit of thought, Thawpelt nodded slowly, and locked his dark blue eyes with the deputy's. "I'm sure none of us could have stopped it, Rosefeather. Silentkill is following a differnet path, were maybe only she can save herself. Don't trouble yourself with believing you could have done anything to change her choices." Thawpelt could easily be way off. Though, the oddly colored tom had to make sure that was not the reason Rosefeather was acting like this.

Rosefeather shook her head. "No you don't understand." She turned around to face the center of the camp. "She was my best friend." she wispered.
