I Hear Voices In My Head (Open)

[CaℳI]

Otterkit sat out in the clearing, his pale green eyes in a daze as he thought about dreams he had in the night. Who was that huge cat? He had never even seen that cat before. His mother had told him that you can only dream of faces you've seen...she couldn't be wrong right? 

He stared off into the distance, wondering if he should just go back into the nursery and take a nap. He was a curious young cat though, always wanting to learn and watch others. He had been enjoying the day so far watching some of the warriors hunt. 

Silentsong must be missing me...only...I don't know any cat named Silentsong. 

He sighed, still confused about what his dream had meant. He needed to figure out who all these strange cats he didn't know were. Did other kits know cats they had never met? The whole thing was truly confusing to the young kit. 

He gazed off, watching the cats in the clearing. Maybe one of them knew someone by the name of Silentsong.

Briarsong had just returned from hunting and she lay down her fresh kill in the pile after a long hunting trip and chose one for herself, padding over to a sunny spot to rest and eat her meal. Before she could eat, she noticed that Otterkit was sitting by himself in the clearing. The tabby queen picked up her thrush and carried it over to the young kit. "Hello little one, what are you doing sitting there all by yourself? You've been there for most of the day. Are you alright?" She mewed, her gentle green eyes watching the kit carefully.

Cherrypaw had been watching that little ginger kit while she ravenously ate her meal. Catching some of the older apprentices staring, she straightened, daintily taking small bites from the fresh-kill. Why wasn't she even acting decent in public? Maybe the reason was because she had woken up in a bad mood a while ago. The bad mood had disappeared when she had gone out to train with her mentor though,

The apprentices turned their attention back to their food and Cherrypaw turned her attention back to the kit. He looked like he was staring into a blank space with his light green eyes. Finishing her meal, she stood up and padded to the kit, but a warrior beat her to it. Shyly standing a distance from the warrior and the kit, Cherrypaw heard the warrior ask if the kit was alright. While the warrior was waiting for the kit's reply, Cherrypaw walked up to the kit, politely dipping her head at the warrior's direction. She was still confused with the usage of that gesture. The cats said it was a gesture for respect, but she hadn't seen an apprentice direct that gesture to a warrior. "Tell me, little kit. Are you lost?" Cherrypaw meowed.

Otterkit smiled at the warrior in front of him, quickly followed by a rather dumb apprentice asking hi if he was lost. What was she, an idiot? He was a few steps away from the nursery. How in the world could he be lost. Otterkit rolled his eyes, ignoring the apprentice before turning back to the gentle warrior, "Yes, yes. I'm alright. Thanks for checking on me. That is quite kind of you. I'm just watching the cats around the camp and thinking about a day when I'll get to hunt and do warrior duties like you." He smiled, his little sharp teeth showing.

He decided it was kinda rude to roll his eyes at an apprentice, even if her question seemed silly. "I'm not lost...I've been in the clearing many times.....it's not that big...." He spoke to her as if she was a mere kittypet, but he couldn't help it really. "Do either of you know a cat named Silentsong?" The question seemed to come out of nowhere. He HAD to find this cat. At least to meet her if nothing else.

She was my mate.

He glanced around the camp quickly, looking for who had said such an odd thing. "I'm sorry, what did you say?" He turned and asked Cherrypaw as if she had just spoken to him. His mind raced through memories that he didn't even have. His paws felt clammy as he couldn't get a grip on the things floating through his mind. How could such a kit remember things that had never even happened. His eyes narrowed as almost a look of pain took over his face.

He thought about opening his mouth to say something, but he was already confused on what exactly was going on. He decided it would be best to just sit and wait for the two pretty she-cats to speak.

Ignoring the kit's tone towards her, Cherrypaw thought about what he just asked her for a while. "Silentsong... I don't know all the warriors here yet. Maybe you should ask..." Cherrypaw stopped herself. There was a warrior right beside her. It would sound silly to ask the kit to ask a warrior.

The kit suddenly looked around the camp, as if he was looking for someone. That kit was weird. "I said I don't know all the warriors here yet." Cherrypaw meowed to the kit. The kit narrowed his eyes and Cherrypaw saw a look of pain on his face. "Do you want us to take you to the medicine cat?" the calico apprentice asked, concerned about the kit's health.

[Wolf]

Briarspring gently sniffed the kit, just to be sure the kit wasn't ill since he seemed so oddly distracted. "No, I'm sorry, I don't. Did you hear that name somewhere?" The warrior asked. She lay her tail on Cherrypaw's shoulder, signaling that she should calm down. Lowering her voice, she asked, "Did you hear that name in a dream perhaps?" She mewed, her pale green eyes glinting with wonder. How could a young kit know anyone outside of the Clan? Let alone a cat that none of them, even a warrior, would know.
