"Highstones..." Twigpaw whispers as the moonlight bathes the tall silver mountains "T-they're so beautiful."

"Indeed they are." Swiftfeather meows back while her memories of being an apprentice flood back to her. The cold water and rock. The starry ancestors...

"Well, let's go in!" Twigpaw meows while bouncing with excitement

"Not yet."Swiftfeather meows, snapping out of her dreaming

"Why not?" Twigpaw whines while looking at her mentor with moony eyes

"The moon is not in position. We have to wait until the moon is directly above the hole in the cave." Swiftfeather meows. Twigpaw plops down onto the ground with a sigh

Watching the moon move is like watching the grass grow. Twigpaw thinks while trying to take a quick nap I miss Cloudpaw... His open, kind and comforting blue eyes. The fluffy fur that is always warm at night. I should have let him come with me.

"Twigpaw?" Swiftfeather meows, waking up the homesick apprentice

"Yeah, Swiftfeather?" Twigpaw meows back with a yawn

"Do you miss Cloudpaw?" Her mentor meows with a smile

"Can you read minds?" Twigpaw meows sheepishly " Because yes, I... I do."

"He told me that he really likes you." Swiftfeather meows, making Twigpaw's smile reach her ears

"Well I like him too." Twigpaw meows with less embarrassment. Swiftfeather and Twigpaw gossip about the clan, anxiously waiting for the moon to reach its position.
