(ment for Silence to come... other Loners can too if they'd like...)
Scarredheart padded into the feild. The stars were out, but their light was faded, due to the overpowering of the moon. Scarredheart looked up the the moon, it wasn't quite full, but it was getting there. The stars glowed a bright white and seemed to be smudged around their edges outwards. He sat, and waited. For nothing in particular... just for something to happen, something at all.

Silence trudged forward with his head down with his eyes concentrating on his moving feet. No wind tugged at Silences fur like usual, it was just a plain old windless night. The grass between his toes felt soft and had small drops of wet rain on them from earlier that day, but it was all starting to clear up.
All of a sudden he felt the presence of another cat he lifted his eyes from his now stopped feet and saw the figure of that one tom he had seen the other night. A smile crept up on his face as he stood, watching the tom.
Lilypaw watched her brother, her green eyes a mixture of feelings. Sadness, worry, a lifelessness; those were some things that hung so deeply in them. She longed so much to go up to her brother and speak to him, but she knew that was forbidden. The last time she had brushed her fur against his had gotten her in trouble. She longed to help him make a friend of this tom so he wasn't so along, but she knew she couldn't. She knew she wasn't aloud.
Silence padded up to the toms side and sat a tail-length away from him. He tilted his head towards the sky, the playful, mischeivious smile still playing on his face.

Silence's eyes twinkled and his smile stretched further across his black face. He sat there without turning his head towards the tom, he sat pretending to study the stars. His tail flicked back and forth in an amusemtent way, not a thinking way this time as he waited to see what the tom would do next.

Scarredheart sighed. "Still no awnser, eh?" Me mewed softly. Humm... I guess not." Scarredheart looked up at the sky, the soft, whispey clouds danced across the sky as the wind blew.

Silence had expected the om to get angry and stock off, just as he had done at the end of their last meeting, but he didn't. He sat quietly next to him. Silence turned his head towards Scarredheart and blinked his eyes, trying to see over the outside layer of this tom and into what he was really like. He shuffled his paws and kept his gaze on the tom, wondering what his name was.

"Fine then." Said Scarredheart. "I'll start. My name is Scarredheart. Who would you be? You don't seem social, so I doubt that you are in any clan. He meowed. He waited anxiously, almost any responce would be taken. Any awnser at all, even if he said hello.

Silence nodded and swept his tail so it was infront of his mouth, indicating silence. He wasn't sure if Scarredheart would understand, so in the smallest whisper voice, he said (actually more mouthed), "Silence"
That was the first time Silence had 'said' the name to himself. He almost had said Stormpaw, but he had caught himself. He sighed and turned back to the stars above him, imagining one of them to be his sister.

"Aahhh..." Meowed Scarredheart. "And the name matches the speeking. Or, lack of speeking." Scarredheart looked at the cat. It was an awkward silence, and it could not be broken. For, if Scarredheart spoke, no responce wolud be givin, and Silence wasn't one to strike up a converstaion.

Lilypaw watched from above as her brother spoke for the first time since her death. She sighed in relief, there probably wasn't much more to come, but atlease he had said something. She turned her gaze from him to the tom next to him, what was this cat doing as a loner, he looked like he could fit well into a clan.
Silence looked to his side when he felt the odd feeling again that somebody was watching him, although nobody was there. He kneeded his paws on the grass and looked at them nervously, what was going on? Was he going crazy from his silence and from Lilypaw's death?

"Is," Scarredheart began. He was intamidated at the fact that there was nearly a one hundred precent chance that he would not get an awnser. "Is something the matter?"

Silence glanced up, fear in his eyes. Something was wrong. Somebody was watching him. He glanced around him, looking around wildly.
Lilypaw gasped, how could Silence sense her? She widened her eyes, hopefully she wouldn't get in trouble for this. In the softest voice she could manage she whispered, "Be strong Stormpaw." She hoped the other tom hadn't heard her. At that moment she disapeard from the area, going away. Maybe she could watch her mom for a little bit...
The sound came to Silence's ears. It was clear as a bell. He shook his head, he would recognize that voice anywhere. He glanced at Scarredheart and blinked his eyes once. The feeling went away that he was being watched and he got to his paws. In a moment he was out of there, sprinting across the starlit feild.

Scarredheart chased after him. "Silence? Whats wrong with you?" He stopped in his tracks and let Silence run off. Scarredheart looked around, nothing was there. An empty feild. Alone, by him self. He padded off towards the forest and fell asleep. His head full of many things to think about for the next day.
