Torchheart padded silently through the cooling undergrowth to the Shaded Creek. His paws skimmed over the dewy leaves and ferns, slightly calming his fiery soul.
Getting there, he gazed into the depths of the water, which wasn't too deep. He saw a flaming-red pelted cat with dark green eyes staring back at him. Slowly, Torchhheart dipped his paw into the water, making his usually comforting reflection blur. He sighed, feeling like a different cat today.
Torchheart wasn't his usual happy-go-lucky self, with his tail helf high and eyes burning for adventure and mischief, even as a warrior. The flaming tom shook himself and bent down to take a drink. The water was like a river, quenching the brightness of his pelt amoung the dark forest.
He lay down beside the Creek, curling up into a ball. Torchheart didn't close his eyes, they just stared atraight ahead, unmoving. He had never realized how alone he was until now, out in the silent, unmoving forest. Maybe if he did the same, no one would notice his absence, they hardly ever did.
