Chapter 10
Petya returns to find Denisov waiting, very worried about him. Petya's too excited to sleep, and goes exploring when Denisov drifts off. Petya talks to his horse about all the exciting adventures they're going to have in battle and then is interrupted by a Cossack. Petya asks the cossack to sharpen Petya's never-been-used sword and also asks after Vesenny, the little French drummer boy. The narration reflects on how unaware Petya is of what's around him and the reality of the upcoming battle. I'm pretty sure Petya's going to die. He dreams of music.
