A voice.
Was he imagining things?
Sleetfang piqued his ears, peering out from the grass at the edge of the clearing. No. A soft voice, just on the edge of hearing, the trace of a RiverClan scent. He stalked out under the beeches, glancing around. So he wasn't imagining it... It wasn't until she spoke again that he glanced up, staring into a pair of pretty mismatched eyes. Something like a purr rumbled in his throat, like he was trying to hold back laughter.
"Lightpaw," he mewed, "I never would've guessed you were part squirrel, but you manage to surprise me every day."
His memories wandered over to SkyClan and a pretty ginger tabby, but he banished the image from his head and padded over to the base of the tree. "Stay still. I'll get you down." This would all be fine as long as she didn't drop down and use him to break her fall...
