Claws were outstretched as she reached for them - kits, apprentices, warriors alike - but she was always too late. Just barely out of reach, blue eyes watched in horror every night as they tumbled out of view, swallowed up by the darkness of her nightmare.

Sleep had transformed from expected to distant, though she tried to keep that hidden. Her fur remained groomed and sleek, eyes as bright as she could make them. Only those who decided to look hard and long enough would be able to see even a hint of the anguish Cindersky felt.

But still, she had a duty to her Clan. Paws carried her over to where Locustmoon and Shiningskies were calling out patrols - where in the world was Dogbark?? - and she nodded as her name was called along with Patchpaw and Tigerpaw. Already, Tigerpaw had made his way over, so Cindersky scanned the clearing for Patchpaw. "Hello Tigerpaw," she greeted the young tom with a smile, noticing how distant he still was. "We will head out once Patchpaw arrives. Is everything... alright?"

"i'm just not comforterable too close cats quite yet... im still new to being in a clan." Track, no, Tigerpaw mewed. The memory of being swept by the river, his dad beating him, his brothers crying all flooded back to him. He shuddered, but blocked them out.
