The darkness was like a never-ending sea stretched in front of her, bringing fear to her life. Would she fall off a cliff is she took one more step forward? Would she run into a tree? A thorn bush? Would she end up accidentally hurting someone or stumbling into enemy Clan territory?
Snowstorm sighed at her many worries of life. Of course she could hear and scent, but life was extremely difficult with the loss of vision. She didn't know what it was like to see. And she would never.

Ringedpaw walked in, a rabbit in her mouth. "Here, I caught this for you," she said, dropping the rabbit at Snowstorm's feet.

Nodding acknowledgedly to Ringedpaw, she brushed her extra long whiskers against the rabbit. In her mind she formed the picture of the creature and she bit into it, chewing it lightly.
"Ringedpaw," she asked. "What's it like to see?"

Ringedpaw thought. "Sometimes it's wonderful, to see the whole world, so colorful. But other times, it's bad. Like in battle. Or when you see a cat die."

(Hmm... I'm hoping Phoenix will realize she has to reply to this. xP)
Snowstorm paused a moment, her blank stare fixed on a rock. "I wish Flamestar could give me a chance at being a real warrior. Everyone is so afraid that I'm too weak or I'll get killed or something." She blinked. "I may not be able to see, but I could help out around the camp. Like I could help Gothdelicacy with her herbs... or I could tidy up the dens... but I'm always forced to be in this stuffy old den... always alone!"

Ringedpaw nodded. "I know. I guess you just have to prove yourself, by doing something really heroic? I don't know. Helping Gothdelicacy is a good idea. But you'd have to be careful. Everything anyone does comes with a risk. You've just got to shake off the idea of it. And as for being alone... I could keep you company," Ringedpaw twitched her whiskers as she said this. What if Snowstorm takes it as offense?, the apprentice thought. She didn't want to offend her. That would only make her angry, and that was no good.

Snowstorm was silent for a moment. Her whiskers twitched. "You really mean it? Oh yes, you really do! Most of the cats who say that forget about me or go get themselves killed." She purred loudly, which didn't sound to elegent, but it could cheer you up to see the sad, blind she-cat showing that she was happy for once. Standing up to exit the elder den, she tripped over a small rock and fell onto Ringedpaw.
"I'm sorry!" she gasped, getting up off of him.

Ringedpaw helped Snowstorm up. "It's okay. You didn't mean to. I'm fine," meowed the apprentice. She moved the rock to a small nook where it would soon be forgotten and wouldn't cause harm to anyone. "I... I hear Gothdelicacy has taken on an apprentice. Cometpaw or something. Maybe I can introduce you to him?" the apprentice asked.

Her ears perked up. "I know, Ringedpaw," she said patiently. "Where Flamestar announeces the apprentices isn't that far for my ears." She flicked them as an example. She walked to the ledge and peered over, fearful. "I've never been able to leave this den. Not since I was lead here at 3 moons. I'm afraid I'll fall. Ears can't help me walk and my whiskers can't feel for uneven ledge."
(How about Ringedpaw and Snowstorm become mates?)

(I think Ringedpaw is a girl... :/ Otherwise, it would be a cool idea.)
"That's... So sad. I wish I could help you," she meowed, touching her tail to Snowstorm's shoulder. Ringedpaw's shoulders eased. Her ears perked. "Perhaps I could help you. I could lead you outside," offered the apprentice.

(Drat. Change him to a tom, it would be a good pairing. Like a CloudxBright sort of thing. But forget it if she is a she-cat, I don't want them to be gayy.)
"Really?" Snowstorm gaped. "Well, I guess, but, well okay!"

"Alright," he said. He carefully lead her with his tail. "Now, step slowly. You don't want to slip. But if you fall, I'll catch you." The tom smiled at her, though he was not sure if she would know.
