"But why?" SnowPaw asked, looking in the direction Cougar had gone. She shook her pelt free of snow, before trudging on. The snow was high enough and frozen at the top that she could walk on it without breaking through.

"Because..." Sabor hesitated. He knew SnowPaw knew about him and his dealings with Death but he really didn't want to give her more information about it... it COULD prove disasterous if someone found out and the fewer she knew the less could be wrung out of her... "Eh, we disagree in our dealings with my grandmother" He meowed simply... hopefully that would be enough.

"Hm." Was all SnowPaw replied with. "My friends and siblings aren't too happy with me, either."

"About what?" Sabor asked keeping his gaze averted by looking straightforward in front of him. He was silently debating where to walk to next... hmmmm... He shook his pelt to get all the snow off with a slight disgusted look at the white cold substance... Sabor hated snow.

"They can't understand why I talk to you, let alone spend time with you." SnowPaw answered. "You have the big bad wolf look going on pretty well with the others."

Sabor couldn't hide a small grin "Huh, funny. They still seem to follow you right up to me as if they expect me to just talk... that or they figured out that I'd leave and they're doing that to keep you away. Ever thought of that?..." He pondered doubting the latter... they'd have to be really smart to come up with that and he didn't think too highly of them, especially brain-wise. "Hmmmm... Maybe if I restore my rep. they'd definetely not follow you over to me... hmmmm... " Sabor trailed off pondering before his blue eyes focused on SnowPaw again. "Mind if I beat you up again during a ceremony?" He asked in an almost teasing manner obviously joking... referring to the time when he was a new apprentice and he'd attacked SnowPaw, then SnowKit.

"I'll just beat you back. You don't scare me." SnowPaw shot right back, grinning all the while. "Oh, I could see it now. And then DeadPaw would try to jump to my aid and by my knight in shining armor! Hah. He's tried to make every other apprentice and even some of the warriors swoon before, and it usually doesn't work." The beautiful apprentice didn't pay any mind the memories of when Sabor had been a truly mean cat. He never hurt her that much to begin with.

"Guess that'd be a no?... All well, I'll beat up somebody else" He decided shrugging. "Yeah and then DeadPaw would be just that... dead" Sabor added... DeadPaw got on his nerves quite often so a chance to 'accidently' cut his throat or something... that would be pleasant.

"Oh, you won't kill him. He may be a pest, but he's still part of the Clan." SnowPaw flicked her tailtip against the snow. "And I think your repuattion will eventually become normal again. Your still the scariest, strongest, and meanest cat in all the Clans...to everyone else, anyway." Then she added. "You and Cougar."

Sabor just grunted in reply his tail-tip twitching showing he was deep in thought over something. He blinked a couple of times "Yeah well your friends are still annoying" He couldn't help but add... almost child-like in manner. One of those times when you couldn't think of anything to say so you try and come up with something to 'argue' about.

SnowPaw didn't reply, only shrugged. After a minute, she turned her light green eyes to look at SaborBlades, just as they changed to yellow. "What are you thinking so hard about?"

"Several things actually. One being how cold it is and wondering out of all the groups Shade and Xena could have dropped Cougar and I off at they chose this barren tundra..." He explained/complained (whichever is more accurate). "Then I was just thinking back... into the past when Cougar and I were kits up until we became warriors" Sabor continued a flash of sadness crossed his blue eyes but it was gone in a flash and his voice stayed steady the whole time.

SnowPaw frowned. Suddenly, she sidled right up next to Sabor and pressed her side against him, coming to a complete stop as she did so. And there was a shock that SnowPawfelt as they touched, some jolt that increased her heart rateand knotted her stomach. But it was a good feeling. She loved him. And now, now SnowPaw finally realised this. But she didn't move. She stayed there next to him, where she felt she should be.

Sabor tensed for several moments before relaxing slightly. "Are you that desperate to get yourself killed SnowPaw?" He asked moving forward... not pulling away but just continuing on moving... It finally occured to him that he'd never actually told her any of that... the threats that Death had given him, the whole reason he switched apprentices, much to his own (surprising) disappointment. Sabor sighed deeply and slowed his pace waiting for her to catch up again.

SnowPaw had to blink a few times and take a few deep breathes. "I guess I am." But now SnowPaw was worrying about something else; did Sabor feel the same way? Even the hope that he did made her feel elated. She longed to tell him her mnew discovery, but held back. SnowPaw walked slowly with him, her pelt brushing his and each time it made her spine tingle.

They walked in silence for many moments heading in no particular direction. "What're you thinkin'?" Sabor asked looking at SnowPaw with a curious expression. He was almost smiling to himself... He knew she loved him, he could tell and he knew he loved her yet with that elation despair was also brought.... If Death found out... his thought trailed off.

SnowPaw smiled. "What do you think I'm thinking about?" she questioned back, looking her eyes into his. At this time, early morning was nearing. They had been out most of the night, walking and talking for hours, but SnowPaw didn't mind. She didn't even feel tired.

Sabor shook his head obviously not willing to give it a thought... In his opinion girls had very wierd minds... there was no telling what SnowPaw was thinking. He looked up to the sky where morning was dawning somewhat surprised. The stars were just now beginning to fade. "Huh... Hope I don't have a morning patrol, cause I'm not going to show up for it" Sabor muttered mostly to himself.

SnowPaw laughed. "Lets hope BoneTail doesn't want me up too early." Her stomach rumbled. "Erm.. Maybe we should find something to eat."

Now that he thought of it he realized how hungry he was himself. Usually during these night outs he would hunt for some food but this night he'd obviously been side-tracked. "Uh, not a bad idea at all" He agreed and looked around for a moment before creeping off.... Sabor actually hated to hunt... he wasn't patient enough to stalk the prey and wait until the best time... he just wanted them to jump into his large paws... It didn't work that way though. Despite his slight deficiancies he returned a moment later with a white rabbit... Pure luck no doubt.

SnowPaw had stalked off as well, but returned with no prey and a slight frown. "Must've scared everything off when we walked by." she meowed, then eyed his rabbit, sizing it up. "Share? I'll catch next time."

Sabor just smiled and nodded before dropping the rabbit. No need to mention that he was a horrible hunter himself and it was just pure luck... No better to play it cool. He took several large bites before backing away so that SnowPaw could get at it easier. "I suppose we should hunt for a couple pieces of prey and then head on back to camp and see if we're needed seeing as neither of us can seem to remember" He suggested lightly obviously not really caring himself but SnowPaw might like her record of being around when she was wanted.

SnowPaw took a few bites, chewing thoughtfully, but she frowned. She didn't really want to go back to camp. But she supposed Sabor was right. They couldn't stay out all day and night. The Clan would grow suspicious. And she was sure by now someone would be missing her. SnowPaw didn't answer until she had eaten her fill, and then nodded. "Yeah, your probably right. RiverPaw or LunarPaw might be missing me by now."
