i need the stars at night

His brother was stunned into an even deeper silence after one soft word. Spirit grinned at the faint outline of his darker costed brother, waiting patiently as he slowly wandered up to the edge of the water. He knew his brother had a fascination with the stars and while these were most definitely not stars...they looked like it. He bobbed his head as his brother spoke, eyes shifting to the little lights as they dimmed for a moment before brightening up once again. "They scare easily...like me..." He answered in a soft whisper, shifting uncomfortably on his paws at the statement. "I thought maybe they'd do until the stars in the sky came back..." He trailed off, hoping his brother made the connection and realized they weren't real stars..just a substitute.

After a moment he nodded to the water where the lights were reflected, the Galaxy like specks seemingly swallowing them up in the darkness. Almost as if they were among the stars.
