The toms fluttered against the gentle breeze as he sauntered into the cave. Each day that went on seemed more and more useless and boring. No activity to keep him influenced. Every since he had to turn Distantpaw, he'd been alone, to the point of absolute misery.
Gruting, as if he could hear he, he grew angry. She had disobeyed him. It was his fault.
The rain was pattering down even harder. Lighting flashed across the night sky. I was cold and wet and I needed shelter to feast on my freshly caught fish. I entered the dark cave, face down, setting down my trout. I looked up, startled. "What are you doing in my home?" I question.
He turned, his eyes narrowing. "This ain't your home, it's the clan's den." He snarled, his eyes darting to the fish. "And where'd you get that fish? Riverclan?" He questioned, hius eyebrows cocked. That'sone thing that always lured him in- fish.
It reminded him of home.
Her eyes narrowed at the strange cat. "Well, I'm sorry. I just haven't seen you around here. And yes, as a matter of fact, I did get my fish at Riverclan." She sweetly replies. A smile creeps upon her face. "We can share if you want! My name's Sunflower by the way"
He snarled, although he wanted the fish, that shecat had tresspassed onto his territory. Er, his old home. The only other place that had accepted him for him. He went for the fish, hoping to steal it from her.
She gently laughed. "What's your name?" she asked. "And save some fish for me! It wasn't easy getting it ya know!" She plops down and takes a small bite of the fish. "Have some..." she urges.
Snarling louder, his face swelled into a bitter ball. How dare she? I should take her to Skull like I did Distantpaw. How dare she get away with this? He groaned, and stared at hr taking in her every move.
"Give it to the elders. Now." He warned, outstretching his claws in case.
A slight whimper escaped out of her lips. "I'm sorry..." she whispers, standing on all fours and grabbing the fish in her mouth, and exited the cave, escaping out of sight. [i]I hope I didn't say anything rude...[i] she thought. She heavily sighed and padded down the muddy trail in the rain.
(sorry for it being all italics at the end(:)
The toms eyes peeled at her as she left. She was pretty sure, but could he trust her? Or would she just run away like all the others did when they found out about his 'power.' Or as he considered, a curse.
She reached the Elder's cave and graciously gave them her dinner for the night. They thanked her and she gave a gentle smile and left. She wanted to go back to the strange cat. But, would it do any good? Or start something? She thought for a few moments as the rain pounded on her orange, mangled fur. "I'll go back... maybe I can at least know his name." she whispered, turning to run back to his cave.
She reached the opening of the cave and stepped inside, shaking her wet fur. "Brr..." she whispered. She smiled once again. "I gave the fish to the Elders" she murmured, inching closer. "May I please know your name?"
He looked up, his gold eyes looking liquidy. "Whatever. I'm Spacepaw, son of Grande." He cut himself off, figuring this shecat had no idea on who Grande and Elizabeth were. He seveerly doubted it. After all, not many clan cats knew them.
ooc; gonna get off. byeeee.
She blinked a couple of times. "It's nice to meet you, Spacepaw. Just in case you forgot, my name is Sunflower." she gently smiled. "May I ask who Grande is? Or is that too personal. I understand if it is"
ooc; okay(:
He grunted, his eyebrows lifting as he breathed. With a sudden urge to spill his life, he recluded, seeking back a little. "Grande was the King of Sethius. You wouldn't know them clan cat." He spoke proudly, taking his father's name as his own occasionally...
Her eyes widened in surprise. "Really?" she whispers. Sunflower is caught off guard by her uncle's name. Why couldn't I think of his name before?, she thinks. "I remember who is he... he's my... my... uncle" she manages to stutter out. "I haven't seen him since I ran away..."
Sunflower looks into Spacepaw's eyes. "It seems like forever ago..." she starts. "My parents were treating me with disrespect, and so I left. Mathias and Reilegh. The last I heard from the Sethias, Mathias remarried with a shecat named Phoebe." she looked into the rain and heavily sighed. She hadn't realized how much she missed home until now.
Sunflower smirked. "Right you are." she said. "I'm surprised my name is still known anywhere... let alone Sethias" she paused. "So," she said, circling Spacepaw. "Since Grande is my uncle, and your father... that makes us cousins..." she stated in a hushed tone. "Why would Grande send someone to find me? It always seemed as if I was unwanted in Sethias..." Sunflower bowed her head in shame.
He grunted. He knew his father well. And although he didn't show much emotion in his love, he showed it towards Sunflow- er, Acie. Nodding a, "yes" with his head, he continued to stare at her with wide eyes.
The cave was silent. Dead silent. It seemed to be a century before one of us spoke. "So, why then?" Acie asks. She blinked hard. The emotions and feelings of Sethias were rushing back to her like a strong current of water. Tears welled up into her eyes, but she quickly pushed the feelings away. "Why did he send you?" she questions, her words almost choking her.
"Because he misses you. Sethias misses you. And he needs you to take your spot in line. Grande and Elizabeth will retire soon. And Euphoria and Mavious will take the throne. After that, it's you and your husband. Er... As clanners call it, 'mate.'" He spoke softly, somewhat like a whisper, but slightly louder. He stred at her in awe, confused on how he did not reconize her.
A smirk escapes her lips. "Like I would want to rule" she sasses. But deep down inside she wants to rule. She sighs heavily. "Well," she whispers. She pauses, "Never mind" she shakes the thought of ruling out of her head. "So, he misses me, eh?"
