Skypaw.
||I was nurtured - -
||I was sheltered, - -
||I was curious and young. - -
||I was searching for that something, - -
||Trying to find it on the run. - -
||Oh and just when I stopped looking, - -
||I saw just how far I'd come. - -
||In this life. - -
||In this life. - -
The darkness surrounded her, more than ever before as she fought to break free, strong steel wire pushing into her paws. Screaming echoed in her ear as the young tabby she-cat tried to run, to get away from the fire rushing across the plains behind her.
Suddenly everything changed as she pelted across the cobblestone path, the flat rough rocks prickling her pads as another blood curdling yowl echoed through the streets around her. The young she-cat's paws scampered against the pebbles franticly but she seemed to be getting no where as something huge continued up the path.
Lightning flashed as the she-cat fell onto the soft grass again, panting deeply as the familiar pale ginger tom looked brightly at her with a small smile across his face which dissapeared as a huge dog appeared out of nowhere. She tried to get up, to help her best friend but failed as she was whacked across the grass, landing in a large bunch of leaves, purring all around her.
||I have faltered - -
||I have stumbled, - -
||I have found my feet again. - -
||I've been angry, - -
||And I've been shaken, - -
||Found a new place to begin. - -
||And my persistence to make a difference, - -
||Has led me safe into your hands. - -
||In this life. - -
||In this life. - -
With a heart faltering yelp Skystar's eyes snapped open, her fur brislting with fright as she looked franticly around the apprentice's den, her blue eyes wide with terror as she tried to calm her breathing, the familiar scents of her den and her friends filling her lung as she gave a sigh, tried to slow down her heart rate as she continued to look around.
The smallt abby and white leader gave her fur a brisk shake, getting to her paws as she swiped her tongue lightly over her chest a few times before she fell back onto her moss nest as her blue gaze finally focused on the dark den.

OOC//confused. Is it Skypaw or Skystar? Or is it first Skypaw then Skystar, the same cat? 'Cause it says she's in the apprentices' den.
Darkness overwhelmed her view, and her legs felt sluggish and seemingly unable to move. She moaned slightly, twitching her white-fluff-pointed ears. The enclosed space felt a bit dank and rather musty, and hot. Now her black vision line was turning orange-red, and her eyelids burned. She opened them and blinked. Sun was filtering through the bramble roof of the warriors' den, and the den itself was almost empty, with a only a few cats lingering in the rays of light. She stretched, stretching her long, thin legs in front of her, and blinked, blue eyes adjusting. She picked through the few remaining warriors and emerged. Her eyes narrowed; the light was blinding. As she looked around, she noticed no cat was in camp. It was empty; the fresh-kill pile was equally empty. The dawn patrol would be back soon, and some hunters had probably gone out. She decided she'd find Midnightstream or Skystar and ask if she could lead a patrol...but she didn't see either. Perhaps they were out also, or asleep.
OOC//this is her cue to come out, lol
