    [fancypost bgcolor=#0f0f0f; borderwidth=0px; width: 470px; max-height:; text-align: justify][size=11pt]Something was wrong. That much was obvious. A cat was trotting along, alone, fur standing vertically along its spine as its head moved from side to side, trying to peer into every dark crevice of the forest as it went. Anyone could have recognized the emotion shining from the feline’s blue and orange eyes as confusion and fear, the mixture of feelings that could usually be found when someone was lost. Every time a leaf or branch would rustle, the feline would flinch and its fur would find a way to spike up even more. There was no comfort to be found in the birdsong that was floating through the treetops or the beams of light that would occasionally stroke the cat’s white pelt as it broke through the canopy. No, instead adrenaline was igniting the feline’s super senses and the pearly white thorns that were its claws were leaving deep gouges in the ground as it picked up speed. Bitterblue wasn’t always like this; afraid of what may await in the shadows or what could be lying beyond the mountains. Once upon a time, she had been fearless. Coming face to face with the unknown had given her life, not scared her to death. But that was before. Before Calum had possessed her and before he had taken her from her home. Before he had set fire to her mind and left her without her identity. She couldn’t remember anything. Not the months she was possessed mind you, no, she couldn’t remember her. It seemed as though her mind had been scrubbed clean by the time Calum had finally left her. Not a single memory remained to direct her back to who she was. That was why she was running at full speed through the forest towards the home that she couldn’t remember was home. It had taken her months to even find a hint about where she should go. Every stranger she had encountered on her journey knew nothing about what she was looking for. Yet again, it is hard to know what you are trying to find when you can’t remember what it is that you have lost. Someone however, had finally recognized her. Bitterblue. HawkClan. Two words from the stranger and she had taken off. Now she was here, running past the sequoias with her ears flattened to her skull, the strong scent of the border invading her nostrils. The femme’s legs slowed themselves. In her gut, she knew her surroundings weren’t quite right. The trees seemed too tall. Eyeing the vegetation suspiciously, Bitterblue settled down onto the cool forest floor. Whatever. Her odd colored gaze flicked away from the trees to inspect the shadows that filled the forest, her super senses working to find any life hidden within.

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0][justify]"Hey, 'the hell are you doing?" The fearful Bitterblue earned a response from Twilighttown; she was running through HawkClan looking like she was high off crack or something, she failed to wait at the borders like every other kitty... so, what, did this give her the right to attack, or something? Or... she knew HawkClan was full of StarClan believers nowadays, so maybe that was not allowed. Ah, the downside of living in a pro-clan.


    A light growl hooked in the red fox's throat as she circled the returning HawkClanner, failing to remember who this was. Twilighttown was an older member as well, although she was present under her father's reign, who was Tumultdusk. Or... maybe she was alive for the leader before him. Who knows. She was much different back then than she was now, too. But people changed. She and Bitterblue were examples of that.


    Twilighttown let out a huff as she stopped and tapped her small paw on a stone on the ground now, her patience running low-- but she tried her best to retain it. Click click click click. Her nails made a very speedy tapping noise on that rock, showing that she was getting annoyed. "Well?"

    [fancypost bgcolor=#0f0f0f; borderwidth=0px; width: 470px; max-height:; text-align: justify][size=11pt]The sudden appearance of the red fox didn't startle Bitterblue. No, what scared her was the hostility and distrust that the other creature displayed. It was clear to the feline that she and the fox hadn't been acquaintances before she had lost her memory, but if this HawkClanner didn't recognize her, who was to say that there would be anyone left who did remember her? If no one could recall her past for her, then how could she possibly find out who she was? Before returning to the clan, Bitter had guessed that, in the very least, she had been away for a year. In all honesty, she should have expected no one to recognize her. However, Bitterblue couldn't quell the sense of disappointment blossoming within her and she pinned the fox with her uneven gaze.


    "I am Bitterblue. I have returned home."

  • [justify]She seemed to have calm down, the constant tapping coming to a halt. Naturally, due to deep-rooted daddy (and mommy) issues, she had grown to be meaner and more hostile, even when she did not want it. She was on a short leash, thus explaining the unfriendliness that Bitterblue was faced with... it was actually quite amazing she hadn't taken on the body of a chihuahua, since her personality seemed fitting for one of those small, yapping dogs.


    Gnashing her teeth for just a minute and licking her lips, she would sit quickly, her large tail thumping swiftly behind her like a cat's would. She was born a cat, so she still had feline tendencies-- despite the habit of taking on canid bodies whenever the last one perished. Her former favorite form was a coyote... until she challenged Tumultdusk-- er, Pollux-- to a battle, but lost.


    "...Welcome back, then." Twilighttown would mumble afterwards then, not breaking her stare with the heterochromic feline until the other would look away. "I'm Twilighttown. Save the nicknames." It would take used to being called this name. She'd been Tempus for so long. "Anyway. Who's reign did you live under?"

    [fancypost bgcolor=#0f0f0f; borderwidth=0px; width: 470px; max-height:; text-align: justify][size=11pt]Bitterblue's eyes glazed over. Who's reign did I live under? The feline's ear twitched in annoyance as she mulled over the question. I had been hoping to ask questions, not answer them. If only Bitterblue could remember that she herself was the granddaughter of Noirstar and had seen more leaders rise and fall than she cared to count. But that was neither here nor there. The white cat refocused her gaze, coming out of her brief stupor, noting her new companion's intense gaze.


    "I don't know. These days, I've been having trouble remembering things" -a bitter smile pulled at her mouth- "in fact, I can't remember anything."

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0pt; line-height: 12px; width: 300px; text-align:justify]Jonas was there, a nervous grin on his jaws. "Nice ta meet ye, Bitterblue, but you can't run in like that." he barked. "I'm Jonas."

    [fancypost bgcolor=#0f0f0f; borderwidth=0px; width: 470px; max-height:; text-align: justify][size=11pt]Bitterblue could feel heat begin to flare up under her skin as she broke her gaze with Twilighttown and turned to face Jonas. Embarrassment washed over her. She hadn't meant to charge into the forest like a madman, eyes blazing and hair fluffed up so much that she probably looked more like a sheep than a cat.


    "Sorry if I startled you. I'm not usually like this..." Or am I? For all she knew, she could have been a crazed serial killer who liked running around in the night, shanking her foes with an especially sharp branch. The feline shook her head. "Can I ask you a question?"

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0pt; line-height: 12px; width: 300px; text-align:justify]Jonas laughed, barking, "Just don' do it again, laddie. An dye, ask away." The Irish setter smiled, tail wagging.

    [fancypost bgcolor=#0f0f0f; borderwidth=0px; width: 470px; max-height:; text-align: justify][size=11pt]Bitterblue returned the smile, feeling her body instantly relax. "How long has HawkClan lived here? Do you know?" The feline asked, flicking her tail to show that she was referring to the massive forest that the small group was currently standing in. Just craning her neck to try to see the tops of the sequoias made her nauseous as the image of being up that high was thrust into her mind.
