"...Please report what you have found..."

The sound seemed far far away, more like a whisper of the breeze, echoed in Twilightbreeze's ears.

Found what?

Twilightbreeze felt mist clouded her vision as she looked around, struggling to break through the silver.

Shivers traveled through her spine as she let out a shaky breath, the memories of what happened haunted her mind. She had never thought that it would happen, but it did, she was experiencing it. 

She did not really know what to feel, whether she should feel angry or sad. She wanted to stay strong, but she knew that she was breaking inside. Her heart was tearing up into pieces, shattered completely and screams echoed in her head.

She had never felt that miserable before, until now.

She did not blame Fernheart, she blamed herself, for falling in her trap again. Their friendship was being tested, and she finally knew.

The truth.

She was wrong again.

Her heart was beating fast as it broke through the silence. She was struggling to find the peace in her heart, hiding in the corner.

Hiding from the mess that was lied in front of her.

She did not want to admit that she was timid, but she was hiding from the reality. She wanted to curve into a ball where she could live happily ever after...

She sank into the darkness...

A sharp light blinded her vision as she blinked, not knowing what had happened.

"Please report what you have found."

The voice was louder and clearer.

Twilightbreeze could not help but scowl at her foolish self, her ears were rose up as she calmed her heartbeat, listening to the conversation.

It must be a vision again...

"Report it now!"

Twilightbreeze could not help but gasp at the determinedness and fury that was under the voice.

Silence hit and it spread out into the endless mist.

Twilightbreeze's vision became blurred as she struggled to focus, but sleep was dragging her down into the world of happiness.

What did that mean?

Twilightbreeze felt her chest tightened as she saw that cat.

That cat shot her a nervous glance as Twilightbreeze returned it with ignorance.

She turned and asked Deafears, trying to act casually, "Have you ever wondered why Firestar, Jayfeather, Bramblestar were not here? I really would like to mee them!"

Deafears broke the glance between him and Fernheart as he mewed with tense, "I...I...have never thought of that before...I mean...why should we care...?"

Twilightbreeze did not know why either, all she wanted to do was making everything seem as natural as possible.

She headed towards the fresh-kill pile and took a mouse as Deafears sat beside her with a squirrel. She took a big bite as the juicy taste filled her dry mouth. 

She wanted to forget all the bad things that happened to her, but she could not stop herself from looking at Fernheart.

The white pelted she-cat with grey spots was sitting at the far end of the corner, her eyes filled with sorrow.

Twilightbreeze did not really know what to say as she stuffed the rest of her mouse quickly. After a short farewell to Deafears, she headed for the Sunningforest to help with the cleaning as a punishment for breaking the rule.

She would have given herself a reason to forgive Fernheart if she did not bother her again, she was her friend after all.

Although she felt betrayed.

Although she did not know whether she could trust her anymore.

Although she would have the perfect excuse to back away for herself.

But she could not let go.

She could not.

She did not understand.

She did not know how many times she had told herself to let go.

But she did not, could not and would not.

She heard the hurry pawsteps of Fernheart as she turned, faking a smile on her masked face.

Fernheart was struggling to take a deep breath as she mewed, "I want to..."

"Say sorry? It is a bit too late, isn't it?"

"I mean..."

"You are very sincere this time?"

"No, I found..."

"That you cannot live without me? Cool. I just know that."

"Other than that..."

"Okay, um, you have found out the ending of the mysterious yellow liquid incident? I would like to listen to your ending and give you a few praise."

"It's about Mudblossom!"

The shout blasted through the cleaning as every cat aims his gaze at them.

Fernheart licked her front chest fur as she lowered her voice to a whisper.

"I know that..."

"What should I care?"

Twilightbreeze snapped back. She felt that she was exploding, she could not control herself anymore.

"You just want to seek for attention, right? I know you far too well. You are. Are you going to feed me some details that make me chase after some random cat and acting foolish? Cool. I love this idea. Go on and try it out."

Fernheart clearly wanted to defend herself as she opened her mouth, then she shut it tight.

 Although Twilightbreeze felt slightly guilty for her outburst, she still remembered the time when Fernheart broke her heart several times. All her anger gathered as she spat out her last words as she walked away.

"Leave me alone please."
