    [justify]There was no where you could go to escape the heat. The sun's rays penetrated leafy forests, and seeped into caves. Wherever the sun's rays couldn't reach, you could be sure that the hot air would surely take over. The only positive thing the Diverging could claim was that it wasn't very humid in their dry territory, but that didn't mean it was cool. Oh no, it was blazing. If you stood in the territory and looked out over the field, from which the camp was not visible, all you would see was a barren, dry, field of grass, completely parched of life giving water. A sea of green had been transformed into an ocean of gold in a matter of days. Prey was near impossible to find, everything that could had fled into the nearby forest and burrowed into the cool ground, or hid deep among the shadows. If you did find something, chances were that you were too exhausted to hunt it.


    Sandstone was at the back of the cave, tongue lolling. The heat seemed to be life and energy from him, and he panted with exhaustion. The leader had already attempted to go hunting in this weather, and failed miserably. Not only could he not find a single piece of prey, but he doubted he would have been able to catch anything if he had.


    (Alright, so here's how this event will work. You have to get to at least 100 points as a team, using the following point system.


    Make 5 posts searching/gathering water - 5 points
    Make 5 posts hunting - 5 points
    Make 5 posts where your character is searching cool shade - 5 points
    Make a separate thread where the heatwave is affecting your character - 10 points
    Make 10 posts in this thread - 10 points


    At the end of two weeks I will go through this thread and count the points, make sure you link any other threads you make to get points here and I will post them.


    Current Points: 25

    You have 1 1/2 weeks to overcome the heatwave! This event will end on the 15th of July.)[/justify]

    [justify][fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px solid white; width: 420px;][font=arial]Ashton seemed more senstive to the heat than the others had if they were only now feeling the heat. He had been sneaking around camp, smuggling fans into his den and giving them to anyone who needed them, but someone had taken them and he was now back to square one. The serval was sitting in the middle of a clearing in the sun; since it didn't seem like it was going away anytime soon, might as well sunbathe, right?

    [justify]This was not the right time to have longer fur, and now the kitten just wanted to shave it all off. She could he a suspect for taking Ashton's fans, but she most likely didn't, or at least she wouldn't admit it the took them... Whatever really, Vi was spending most of her time in her tent now, trying everything she could to stay cool. Mabye stay in a body with shorter fur mabye more ajusted to the heat. Hmm, after a few moments of thinking, she decided to change to a coyote. Those lived in deserts right? Something like that. But it did seem weird being a whole mother species, changing from feline to canine. Eww

    Milkywaypaw let out a groan as she laid in the summer sun. [color=orange]"Holy crap it's hot!"     The heir groaned. Milkywaypaw got to her paws lazily and let out a sigh, the only thing she could think about right now was how satisfying water would be right now. She let out a sigh and began to travel down to the waterfall and lake to get some water.

    [justify]The now coyote made her way out into camp, only a little bit cooler. Seeing Milky go out and get water, Vi had a different idea. "Why don't we go into the caves for shade?" the canine said, looking towards the caves on the side of camp. Gosh she hated those things, but deep in them it could be a lot cooler

    [justify]Well apart from the shade in the caves, she should better go off and look for some more, as she spotted some NPC's go to the caves. They might get crowded in there, so more shade the better. She felt like BronPaw now, exploring every bit of the territory to find shade. Look behind a rock here, under a tree there, and even looking in some burrows underground.

    Milkywaypaw smiled as the waterfall came into view, the heir sped up before flying strait into the foaming waters and feeling the heat practically melt off of her, that was pretty damn satisfying.

    The kit padded around looking for some wate. [b]"Ugh! This is frustrating!"[/i]she meowed. She looked around and saw some fresh growth. Where there's fresh growth, there's water, right?

    [justify]While Milky was enjoying the water, Vi was burning up as she looked for some more shade. Really, how hard could it be? Well without any trees except in that small patch of forest, it was hard to find shade. Milky and Stone were lucky choosing water, with the waterfall. Why did she even start to look for shade? The caves back in camp were enough, right?

    [hr][hr]Milkywaypaw splashed around a little bit more before remembering what she was supposed to be doing. I need to get water for the queens, kits and elders..." She remembered. The golden retriever conjured up three buckets before filling them up with water. Milkywaypaw hung the handles of two of the buckets on her wings while the other in her mouth. Very slowly she made her way back to camp. [color=orange]"Who wants water?"

    Should she be out searching for water at the moment? Probably not. Besides, she didn't really care if her unborn kids died from dehydration or something anyways, if that was even possible. Getting to her paws in the blistering heat the savannah winced slightly at the hot sun. At least she had thin enough fur to deal with it. Heading towards the forest, she recalled a small river being there.

    Okay, so Ashton had gotten bored sunbathing; the serval was now prowling through the territory with a red bucket grasped in his jaws. As much as he didn't want to be out looking for water, he knew it would be better for his clan-mates to stay dehydrated in this blistering heat. Maybe there was the waterfall around here? Ashton narrowed his eyes, shielding them from the sun, and tried to look for the usual landmarks that he used to get there.

    [justify]After a little bit more, Vi had found a shelter that humans made that was big and made plenty of shade. She started to drag that back to camp, but it was really really heavy so she would get there pretty late though.

    Bounding in the direction of the fresh growth, Stonekit came across a river."Oh! A river! I'll get some moss and take it back to camp! This is great!"she happily meowed. Stonekit bounded over to a patch of moss and collected it, dipped it in water, made a wrap that allowed it to not lose water, and headed back to camp.

    Trekking through the forest the female kept on going until she could see the river. And the annoying kid was there. Well fuck this. Taking a few sips the savannah just sighed and decided to go elsewhere. Maybe somewhere had something, who knew.
