Hidden Evil

[Kal Skirata]

((We could have him blow a whistle and then a couple of vermin show up....just so there is a fight.))
Darman noticed that Catori was watching the sky. "What are ye thinking about, mate? Be careful, there's lots of branches around here, ye could smack yer head off of sommat." he said, while watching him carefully. Was that a tear, rolling down his cheek?

[Wolfie]

Catori stretched, discreetly wiping the tear from his cheek, and yawned. Alright ,mate. I'll be careful. Although it's so dark, I'll probably whack me head anyways. I reckon we should've stayed in the cave until daylight. [OOC: I dunno....]

[Kal Skirata]

"To tell you the truth, so did I. But I didn't want to stay in the area with that rat just standing there, staring at us. It was very unnerving and I don't think that I would have been able to sleep anyway." he said.

[Wolfie]

Catori ran into a thick branch and was knocked back to the ground. He stood up rubbing his head. Even if we hadn't been sleeping, at least we wouldn't be stumbling around the dark. Oh well. Let's find some other place to bed for the night and get at least a few hour's rest eh?

[Kal Skirata]

Darman glanced behind the two of them, checking for the rat. "All right. There's a bunch of dead trees over there. It won't take me two ticks to build a nice shelter for us!" He went to the logs and soon had a tall shelter built for the two of them.

[Wolfie]

Catori inspected the shelter and nodded approvingly. Nice job, mate. That's way better than anything I could've made, and that's saying quite a bit.

[Kal Skirata]

Darman blushed. "Oh, its nothing. I've been building houses for quite some time. You learn quickly and constantly get better." He settled down. "Do you want first watch or second watch? I don't want to be caught off guard by that rat and some of his 'friends'"

[Wolfie]

Catori shrugged. I dunno if that rat had any friends, but I'll go ahead and take first watch. You get some rest, mate. You deserve it. He sat at the doorway and stared at the sky, while keeping his senses alert for signs of an intruder.

[Kal Skirata]

Darman said "Thanks mate. Wake me up about midnight and I'll relieve you then." Darman rolled himself up into his bedroll and immediately went to sleep, trying not to snore this time.

[Wolfie]

Catori nodded quietly and kept staring at the stars, tears running unchecked down his cheeks now that no one could see them. He wiped his eyes softly with a paw so he could see the stars and started singing softly. heaven's not enough
if when you get there..
just another blue
and heaven's not enough
you think you've found it
and it loses you

you've thought of all there is
but not enough
and it loses you in a cloud

"there" most everything is nothin'
that it seems
"where" you see the things you only wanna see

I'd fly away
to a higher plane
to say words I resist
to float away
to sigh
to breathe.... forget

and heaven's not enough
if when I'm there I don't remember you
and heaven does enough
you think you know it
and it uses you

I saw so many things
but like a dream
always losing me in a cloud

cause I couldn't cry
cause I turned away
couldn't see the score
didn't know the pain
of leaving yesterday really far behind
in another life
in another dream
by a different name
gave it all away
for a memory
and a quiet lie
and I felt the face
of a cold tonight
still don't know the score
but I know the pain
of leaving everything really far behind
and if I could cry
and if I could live what truth I did then take me there
heaven goodbye

Darman awoke to the sound of Catori's singing. Noticing the tears running down his face. Darman simply rolled back over and commenced his snoring once more.

[Wolfie]

Catori sighed sadly and wiped his cheeks. I really miss you, Lany. I hope you're safe, wherever you are. I'll find you again someday. I promise I will.

[Kal Skirata]

((Sorry for the time jump, but there really is not another way for me to make a post...))
The next morning, Darman awoke and turned to Catori. "Why didn't ye wake me up when it was my turn to take watch? Yew shouldn't have stayed up all night. Anyways. lets have some brekkers." he said, digging in his pack. Darman laid out a decent spread and tucked in.

[Wolfie]

Catori shrugged in response to the question and munched on some bread quietly. I didn't see any sense in disturbing you. I wouldn'a been able to sleep anyhow so why wake you up to take watch when I can keep watch just fine myself right?

Darman paused in his eating. "I see. All right then. Well, don't stand there starvin, there's food to be had!" Darman went back to his food. "I hope we make the Abbey sometime today, the food there is delicioius!" he said between moughfuls.
