It was dark in CelestialClan territory. The moon was low in the sky, just after sunset. The form of a young tom cat could be seen walking through the territory. SaborBlades was walking in random directions showing that he just felt the need to be out of camp. His short bengal pelt was spotted with white snow that was starting to fall once again after a short break this day. SaborBlades had become accustomed to coming out at night and staying in his den at day... that way he didn't have to converse with anyone.. not that he did that much anyways before... well before everything got so complicated. His face was emotionless as he heard a sound behind him. For all he cared it could be a polar bear that was going to kill him...
(Misty ONLY for now at least)

But it wasn't a polar bear. It was a small apprentice, who's eye looked worriedly into Sabors as she padded up next to him. "Why are you out so late, Sabor?" She had discovered on her own that he preferred Sabor over SaborBlades. SnowPaw's own fluffy pelt was almost covered with light, fluffy, unmelting snow.

Sabor looked at his former apprentice almost surprised but he had a guarded expression in his eyes. He really didn't have an answer for her however os he just shrugged "Less crowded I assume..." Then he smiled "Your training seems to be going well with your new mentor, you almost actually snuck up on me" He added diverting the attention away from him.

SnowPaw smiled some, but shrugged. "I preferred you as my mentor, though." she commented quietly as the sun set and the snow fell.

Sabor snorted... He convinced she was just being modest which can easily be assumed from SnowPaw's normal personality "Oh yeah, my training was wonderful. Getting blown up on, attacked by rogues... yeah wonderful" He muttered sarcastically looking away from SnowPaw and toward nothing in particular.

SnowPaw looked to the ground. "So you did that to protect me?" As night and snow fell, the trees they passed to seemed to lean forward toward them, listening or trying to scoop them up on their branches. it was somewhat mystical and somewhat frightening.

Sabor was uncomfortable... why did it always come back on him? "Do what?" He asked playing dumb so perhaps he'd come up with something to improvise with. With that Sabor stopped and shook the snow off his pelt that had been accumulating along his back to slow the coldness that would seep through his short bengal pelt.

SnowPaw didn't reply. "I know you have a heart, whether you like it or not. But I can se how you don't like to talk about it." She briefly pressed her side against his. "But that's alright."

That was bad... that wasn't supposed to happen... hmmmm.. He should leave... leave before... before... well before someone caught him. Someone was bound to be spying on him... maybe... Cougar, Fatality, Wraith, Death herself even.. somebody. But he didn't. He was just tired of having everyone else control him. Sabor almost laughed to himself and couldn't conceal the smile... the smile of the irony of it all. "You know if cared about yourself like you should, like a normal cat, you'd leave now and you'd stay away... After all you know the plans for the clan, you heard much from Wraith and Fatality. At least enough to figure out what is going to happen." He meowed turning away from her once again but not walking away.

Regardless, SnowPaw followed. "Well maybe I'm not a normal cat." She relentlessly meowed. "And you already saved me from those two rogues."

"That's the problem, see?" Sabor meowed casting a glance her way then realizing that he shouldn't have said that because he'd just opened up a conversation that he didn't want to talk about at all and yet he did... "You do one thing and you get both extremes as a consequence" He muttered continueing after a moments pause... on one side he was thinking of his sister... that one act ruined that but in SnowPaw's case it enhanced it... in Death's case... it made it all the worse putting her on the side with Cougar....

"That's what happens sometimes. What are you going to do about it excpet deal with the consequences. Do you wish you hadn't saved me?" SnowPaw asked, milking the conversation with Sabor for all its worth. If she could get him to talk to her, then maybe she could fiure out what goes on in his head.

Sabor debated in his head telling her or not... then decided that it didn't matter... worst case scenario she left as well which left him alone... which he was doing to himself anyways. So he told her the truth "No, but I really wish you could have run into some other rogues" He meowed trying to put a lightness into the act that turned his life upside down

"I'll try to pick someone you don't know next time, then." SnowPaw meowed jokingly. "And let me let you in on a secret; I think you were very brave and I'm glad you saved me."

"That was a secret? Gah, Well, If I'm going to risk my neck for you or anyone for that matter I'd better have looked brave and they better be happy that I saved them" He grumbled somewhat good-naturedly. SaborBlades started moving again... "I didn't ask you... first who IS your mentor now? I didn't check and then what are YOU doing out her so late at night?" He wondered aloud.

SnowPaw grinned. "BoneTail was assigned my mentor. He's alright. And I saw that you left camp, so I came too. Your not the only one who can slip out unnoticed." She matched SaborBlade's pace step for step, looking up at him since he was still taller.

"BoneTail?! Couldn't give you a better mentor then that?" SaborBlades scoffed rudely... Of course only then did he remember that that was SnowPaw's father... oops... all well too late now. "Well, congratualations on your newfound stealth.... someone like you would definetely need that" He added... it was supposed to be taken as a compliment though most cats would take it as a rude comment.

SnowPaw merely smiled. By now nothing Sabor said could affect her in any negative way. "Thanks. I like my stealth. I get to sneak up on you more."

Sabor was relieved that she hadn't taken it the wrong way like most cats would have.... It surprsied him at how much he was relieved. He couldn't decide if that was a good thing or a bad one... It definetely meant that everything he'd tried to prevent was happening anyway... Sabor decided not to think of it now... later. He'd think of it later. "You're definetely different" He commented. Sabor turned his dark blue eyes to look at her and they met her bright green(?) ones. He nearly freaked on the inside. His heart quickened slightly though he was aware no one around even SnowPaw would have been able to notice but it was the fact that it was happening at all. He looked away quickly trying to sort through his now fuzzled thoughts....Sabor cursed under his breath... everything was going wrong...

(((Her eyes are yellow but they change to light green, like my real kitty's)))
SnowPaw opened her mouth to reply to Sabor's comment, but then they're eyes met. Her hearts's beat raced, her mouth closed, and she felt something inside she had never felt before. She almost longed to walk so close nest to him that their fur touched, just be nearer to him. When Sabor tore his dark blue mysterious eyes away from hers, she blinked a few times, trying to slow her heart. Wow.. SnowPaw didn't try to speak or make sense of what happened. It made her feel nice inside, and she knew that Sabor had caused it. She just kept walking at his side.

"Hey bro." Came a voice as CougarKnife leaped down, glaring from one to the other, then looked disgusted. She surpressed a sigh. "SnowPaw." She growled in greeting, which sound very unfriendly. "You guys patrolling, or what?" For some reason, she just couldn't find it in her to say 'Knock it off you two! Your completely different! You just can't do this' and she hoped it wasn't because she.... ugh she wanted to puck at the word... cared. Ew.

"Cougar" Sabor greeted just as coldy, mimicing her tone in his own deeper voice. "Not technically" He added answering her question about border patrol through narrowed eyes. He could tell she knew they weren't doing a border patrol... first they weren't any where near a border and they definetely weren't heading toward any border either...

Of course Cougar knew that, but she asked it t check something. "Aw, so a walk." She meowed, tone harsh. Inside, though, she felt chaos. And maybe an emotion she never felt before. Something like loss, which confused her. She never really felt emotion. "Alright, well I'll leave you two alone." But she was implying something further then; I'm going back to camp or whateve, see ya later. Maybe Sabor would have caught it. With that she turned around and disappeared into the darkness, further into the territory.

SnowPw didn't speak while Cougar was there, simply nodded a greeting and averted her eyes to the ground. She was relived when she left. "Cougar seems more vicious than usual." she commented quietly.

Sabor didn't hear SnowPaw for a moment thinking of that sudden confrontation... Cougar sure had chosen funny words just to say something simple. He thought he'd heard a hidden meaning in them but he shrugged it off figuring that he just heard what he wanted to hear. His mind finally comprehended what SnowPaw had said and so he turned back to her. "She definetely isn't on my good side right now. Cougar's really mad at me at this point" Sabor explained though those facts were easily seen but he had nothing else to say.
