Willow was on edge. Sunny could tell because her fur was on end, and she was constantly stopping to scent the air, and flinching at every sound. He watched her cautiously. She wouldn't tell him what ''Home'' meant, as she had sprinted off after saying it, seemingly not in control of her body.

''Wait!'' She paused, scenting the air once again, before choose the left path out of two, and padding slowly around a corner, before Sunny saw a sight that took his breath away.

A huge mass of water was cascading down into a foaming river from a high rock wall, a faint rainbow with low opacity covered the white water. Sunny stared at it with wide eyes, in awe of it's natural beauty.

''Come on.'' the sound of Willow's voice roused him, and he turned to look at her. She was walking towards the roaring tower of white, and he followed hesitantly. He stared at the mass of whirling water below them, keeping Willow's tail in the corner of his eye. Suddenly, the tip of her tail vanished. He yelped in surprise, stepping back. It was just him, the rock face, and the water.

''Willow?'' He called anxiously. ''Where-'' He stopped mid-sentence as a pair of eyes stared at him through the mist of the waterfall. Wondering if he was imagining things, he stared cautiously back as suddenly, his own reflected blue eyes flashed a deep, golden amber. He blinked in surprise, and when his eyes opened again, the pale sunshine eyes were staring at him straight on. He found himself unable to look away, being controlled and comforted at the same time as the eyes stared harder. It was Willow that roused him, calling his name from behind the mass of water. The eyes disappeared in a flash, and he peered through the water, and made out her pointing at the edge of the waterfall with her tail. he made his way around it, before diving through the water where it was thinnest.

He looked up and around to see dazzling lights, dancing around on the face of the rock, smoothed by the water. He was misted by the spray, which sent chills down his spine but his eyes were captured by the enchanting patterns on the light. He let out a breath of wonder, turning around, his pupils dilated and eyes wide.

''Come on.'' He turned to see Willow, light dancing sadly in her eyes.

''It's time.''
