MintPaw curled up tighter in her moss nest, it was getting stale and harder to keep warm in. I'll get some fresh moss tomorrow... she thought absently as she tucked her tail over her nose. Closing her eyes MintPaw listened to the breathing of her den-mates. The steady in and out rhythm calmed her down. After swallowing a few times to clear her throat, the apprentice opened her eyes, just a crack and peered around the den. The only one awake she thought, and smiling Mintpaw closed her eyes again, but opened her mouth... to sing! Ever so softly, yet beautifully, the melody came. Even the highest of notes were silent enough that only those closest to her would have been able to hear, that is, if they were awake. But although the apprentices were sleeping, the warriors returning from the moonlight patrol, weren't! And because MintPaw's nest was near the entrance to the den, if any of the warriors were standing close enough, they could hear her! ((Anyone))

(Dang... I don't have any apprentices.... Only a warrior... can she maybe be outside the den so I can RP my warrior?)

There was rustling on the way to the warriors den. An exhausted warrior who had been on the patrol was padding slowly past the apprentices den towards the warrior, but the walking noise stopped. A ginger tom outside stopped to prick his ears, surprisingly taken by the beautiful voice. BlazingSun tilted his head, curious, hoping it didn't look like he was eavesdropping.

MintPaw, not knowing the tom was listening, sang on. "Over the hills and far away, Some day I will come and stay..." Her voice dripped with the honey sweetness of beauty!

Hotpaw fell on tune with Mintpaw by huming. Helping Minstpaw whenever he could.

BlazingSun listened as she was joined by an alto. "Hm." He murmured, turning and peeking in, wondering who was singing. He was being discreet, but he knew he was seen now. He wanted to find out was singing though.

MintPaw looked up in surprise as HotPaw but continued singing. Smiling, because the alto did make the song sound better.

BlazingSun surprisingly stepped inside to listen to the two, hoping it wouldn't stop them. "Carry on, though." He meowed, even though they hadn't said anything yet.

MintPaw blushed, she had never sang for anyone before. "Through the mountains, and through the seas, I will go wherever I please..."

BlazingSun knew she was nervous, and wondered for a few seconds if he should leave and let her sing in peace again. Oh well, she'll get over it. He thought, curling his tail around his paws, sitting on the ground near the entrance.

"Until I find you I will search---!" ((Even if it takes me to a church? Wow, I was gonna add another line, but realized not that much rimes with search!)) MintPaw hung onto the last note, then breathed silently, but deeply through her nose and continued. "So over the hills and far away, I shall come to you one day---!"

BlazingSun smiled encouragingly. Wow... great voice He thought to himself, pricking his ears and listening.

He's cute MintPaw thought, then looked at HotPaw, but so is he! She smiled and sang on, coming to the end of her song. "So for now, here I will stay! But know this. One day. I will go. Over the hills and far away----!" MintPaw finished her song and bowed, breathing deeply.

(Hmm...)
BlazingSun nodded, not saying anything for a few heartbeats, making sure the song was over. "That was great. You have a fantastic voice." He meowed.

MintPaw smiled and blushed worse. "Thanks" she mumbled, staring at her paws. She didn't really believe him. That's why she only sang at night, MintPaw loved to sing, but to her, she couldn't sing well!

BlazingSun smiled warmly and friendly. He had a very bright personality, but he was aggresive. "So, do you sing much?" He asked her again, hoping not to push it.

"Um, ya" MintPaw mumbled. She looked up at BlazingSun and saw his smile. Quickly MintPaw looked back down at her paws. His smile, it was hart melting! "Every night, after all the appentices..." she looked at the apparently awake HotPaw, "Or so I thought, went to sleep!" she looked away again and added, "I didn't think anyone outside the den could hear me."

"Why wouldn't you though?" BlazingSun asked, but kindly. The new warrior quickly had taken a liking to her. He was mostly close to his siblings, never really made much friends. But even though she was a rank below him, he felt she seemed like a great friend. So far. He shrugged his question off. He didn't want to sound obsessed, because he wasn't. But he did think she was a great singer. "I'm being honest though. You can sing." His dark green eyes showed he was being serious, but he did like to joke around a lot.

MintPaw looked up at him again, but this time didn't look away. "Thanks!" she whispered, and faked a cough to muffle the purr that was rising in her throat. "But, it seems the songs only come to me at night!" This was a half truth. At night, most songs did come to her, but some things during the day did make her come up with different tunes and melodies.

BlazingSun nodded. "Wow. Interesting." He meowed, smiling again. "I'm not really used to singing. None of my siblings do." He admitted.

"Really?" MintPaw asked in surprise. "Your voice makes you sound like you would be great at singing...!" MintPaw slammed her mouth shut. "Sorry" she murmured, thinking she had offended the tom with her outburst.

BlazingSun cocked his head again. "Huh? It's fine. I'm not offended." He meowed.

MintPaw let out a small sigh of relief. "Ok" she meowed. "Just, i said that to someone else before and.." she trailed off and looked up at BlazingSun.

BlazingSun blinked. Way too many things to follow. He thought to himself jokingly. "Really? Weird." He meowed with a shrug.
