Nightfur looked up and sighed. "Oh. That..." She sighed, and stretched. "I don't want it any more..." Looking at their expressions of befuddlement she explained. "it's torn in half from the branch landing on it and ripping it with bark, My special place has fallen down and is completely ruined, and it's all my fault." She then promptly rushed out of the den, sprinting away from Snowpaw and Hazel leaf, seeking a place to be alone. A tear fell down and hit the ground, rolling off a leaf and soaking into the ground right next to a tree. Nightfur didn't notice Kioni sitting in it, and Kioni didn't see her for the leaves billowing around her in the wind.
She eventually found an abandoned rabbit den, where she hunkered down, digging it a little larger. She curled up, and let out her emotions. It's all wrong, it's all my fault, and it's not good at all... She sighed, and put her head up as high as she could in an old rabbit den. She groomed herself, and decided to try out this new power of hers. She closed her eyes, and let open her mind.Hello? I think this is what I did before... She gasped slightly as she felt and heard all the trees suddenly in her head.they soon hushed down like the clan did right when the leader was about to speak. The young furred one has found us...
She was puzzled until she realised they were talking about her.Yeah I'm here. I want to know what this power can do and stuff... I'm just really confused at the moment, stuff has happened and my body is changing- Yes child, we know what is happening. She sighed in relief, not having to explain everything. Child, Birkita's falling was not your fault. She has been around since your clan began, and it was time for her essence to return to the earth. Her name was Birkita? I didn't even know...It was not for you to know I had a name my dear. Nightfur gasped physically and mentally as She felt Birkita's spirit come to her.
Birkita! I'm sorry...No child, it was not your fault or your friend's, it was time for me to go back to the earth like my ancestors have done. Nightfur smiled in relief.You can still speak to me, but it might be hard to find me. I'll try and make myself heard for you.Ok. I'll be sure to Birkita. Nightfur paused.Birkita?Yes dear? Who found me?I don't know your clan's names, but it was a male, and he had white paws and eyes not too different from yours my dear. Oh. Thank you Birkita.Do not worry my child. Also, your friend is at a tree not too far away. I'll show you. Nightfur's mind was invaded by the mental image of a tree she had seen before. Thank you. What will I be able to do with this power? She heard the trees speak among themselves, obviously trying to remember what she could do.For now, you can only climb us well, and speak with us, and see and feel us. But when you're stronger, you can bend our branches with our consent, and even become one with us. but that will take time little fur. Nightfur sent out her feelings of understanding and a mental image of her nodding.She is powerful and talented all ready... She felt proud of herself, and said goodbye. She crawled out of the old rabbit den
She stood up, and shook out her fur of dust and dirt. I better go to Kioni. Bye Birkita. Felling her friend say goodbye, and embracing her with her strong homeliness, she set off to the tree Kioni was waiting in for her. She ran, and laughed all the way, relieved and joyful. She arrived at the tree, skidding to a halt, sending leaves floating and flying away in little tornadoes. "KIONI!!" She grinned and bounded up the tree, and felt it help her along with encouraging feelings and making it's bark easier to grip. She landed on the branch right next to Kioni, and hugged him tight."Kioni..."
