Skyfeather trotted towards the river. She knew her mother, Hawkpelt, would want her to find a mate soon, but she wasn't sure she was ready. She loved to swim and fight the waves and blasts of rushing water. She loved to run and feel the sweet wind blow through her silver and tan fur. She loved the soothing sound and spicy smell of the ancient trees.
Right now she was going for a swim. She was finished with her chores: patrol, hunting and scent marking. Her mother had just given her another lecture about finding you darling. Skyfeather had gotten angry, with her short temper, and had said she would never find a mate. But now as she thought about it she was getting a few objections to her choice.
No mate means no kits. I've always wanted kits. The way they're all full of life and energy, just like me. I have too much of it, and I've wanted some kits to match my... my... energy. Alright, maybe I'll tell Hawkpelt that I'll reconsider...
Just then she heard a snap of twigs. She wanted to turn around, but something told her not yet.
"Who's there?" she meowed. "Who?"
Skyfeather wants a mate, not too much trouble.

Eclipsemoon padded into the clearing and looked at her. '' Hello'' he meowed shyly and he shuffled his paws uncomfortably
-
Skyfeather turned around to face the tom. He was handsome enough, she thought. And he seemed to come up at a perfect moment for some reason.
"Hi, I'm Skyfeather, what's your name?" she asked, creeping closer, her ears twitching happily. -
'' Eclipsemoon'' he meowed, dipping his head politly. '' Nice to meet you '' he meowed.
She's beautiful, he thought, But why is she talking to me ? i am no special cat -
She nodded and smiled.
"It's funny," she meowed, "I we live in the same clan but we've never met... You are from RiverClan right? What am I talking about? Of course you are! Sorry sometimes I talk too much, you don't think I talk to much do you? I mean I have this thing stuck in my head... Anyway I talk when I'm nervous, but I never get nervous, I just think I do, but I don't want to be nervous, because then I'd be a wimp. And I don't want to be a wimp, I want to be strong, but I was never strong, just normal. Normal I guess is okay..."
She stopped talking and looked shyly away. Golly I talk too much! -
Eclispesmoon blinked in confusion, '' uhhh'' he meowed
-
hawkfire,an old warrior, paddout of the bushes "ow!" he said as he plucked out a thorn "oh hi" he said *she so goregous* he thought his firey pelt blazed in the sun and his pale green eyes seemed to light up
-
Ashpelt, a brown tabby loooked around "Err can you guys help me I think i'm lost" he mewed, slowly shrinking back a bit.
-
Skyfeather looked around at all of them and backed up a bit.
"Uh," she muttered, "I gotta get a drink."
She padded away a few steps and leaned over to get a drink. She lapped up the icy water thinking. Okay I have three toms... Just talk to them all stupid!
She padded back over and smiled at Ashpelt. "So your lost?" -
Ashpelt nodded shyly shuffling his paws "Y-yes ma'am". She's beautiful but what chance do I have with her he thought.
-
She stared at him for a moment, lost for words. He took her breath away and for a second she forgot where she was, she was just lost in his eyes. Then she was thrust back into reality.
"So where are you from?" she asked. -
"I'm a Riverclanner but I used to be a, umm what Clan cats call kittypets so i'm not very used to the teritorry" he mumbled slowly gazing at her. He didng know why but he felt some wierd sensation, wierd but wonderful.
-
Skyfeather thought for a bit, then remembered that her leader had had brought another new cat into the clan, but she never knew who. She smiled at waved her tail.
"Well welcome, I think you'll find life here in RiverClan wonderful," she said.
For some reason she paused after, just drinking in his scent. He still had a bit of kittypet clinging to him, but the fresh, clean scent of the river was washing him.
She suddenly wanted to look neat in front of him and began washing her chest. -
"Thank you Ma'am" he mewed shifting his paws again "Not many warriors are that nice" he murmured. "They keep calling me Kittypet or Twoleg toy and other stuff like that" he said.
-
A black tom stroded around the forest wen he came apon a she cat. Hmm he thought.
OOC:I'll reply 2morrow -
Skyfeather looked away shyly.
"You're not any Twoleg Toy..." she muttered.
Gosh I hope he doesn't think that's as stupid as I think it is! she thought. Something was pulling her closer to him, but she made herself stay where she was, in case he didn't feel the same. -
He smiled "Thanks" he looked at her "Want to take a walk?" he asked.
-
Her belly jumped. She didn't know what to say or feel but she nodded slightly. "Sure," she meowed.
-
He walked beside her, unsure what to say.
-
She was walking so close that their fur brushed together. Skyfeather swallowed and thought of something to say.
"So," she muttered, "Why did you want to come to RiverClan?"
