    River of Many Legends


    The day was young, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, its light causing the shadows to recede back into their depths. The light played on the dark brown tabby pelt of River of Many Legends, one of the Tribe cats that lived here in the Tribe of Burning Eclipse. Tribe life can be boring. Why can't the Clan cats come up here, like they did when I was a kit? I know it's a dangerous five day walk from here to the Clan territories, but for once, I wouldn't actually care. She thought as she laid down near the river that flowed through the Tribe's territory.

    Shadow of Darkened Day warily padded up.He was a prey hunter."Hey,River."he mewed dully.He lapped the water.He ate a big vole after.

    Hearing the tom, she turned her head, dipping it in acknowledgement. "Good day to you, Shadow. How has the prey been running lately?" She mewed.

    She gave a mrrow of laughter at Frost's words. "That is true, Frost. I haven't been hunting in a while and I can only guess why. " She mewed, her eyes grave as she stared across the land, toward the Clans' territories.

    She nodded gravely and blinked once, glancing at the sky. "And each day, a kit wails in hunger because the prey-hunters don't bring back enough fresh-kill for the queens so they can feed their kits." She turned to Frost, her eyes sadned. "I fear we will lose kits if we don't get enough fresh-kill to the queens." She mewed gravely, her eyes showing how determined she was not to lose kits, even if they were her Tribemates and not her own kits. If I ever did have my own kits, I would die for them.

    River nodded and sighed as she heard the queen begin to attempt and calm her kit. "I hope that our new Stonerock will allow all the prey-hunter patrols to hunt more frequently. The Clancats haven't bothered coming all the way up here now, not since the path has become more dangerous." She mewed, dabbing a paw in a small stream that they had flowing through the cave.

    "Should we go down there and ask for help. If we dont our tribe might die of starvation." Frost said with worry in her voice. She looked back behind her through the cave opening what it would be like down ther at the clans.

    River looked up and followed Frost's gaze, beyond their territory. "Whatever she chooses, it will be the best decision for the Tribe." She mewed, her eyes sparkling with doubt and fear. But what if she chooses wrong? Our Tribe would die. She thought, her fear clearly written on her face.

    Frost stepped towards the entrance not knowing what to do. Finally she decided to take the chance.
    "I'm going." she said, her head down. "Our tribe might die." Frost headed out of the cave, with all the cofidence she had.

    She looked back at the Tribe, her hope as high as the clouds. With a great leap, she bounded after Frost. "Wait, Frost! I'm coming with you. I cannot and will not let you go to the Clans alone." She mewed, looking at her friend with determination.

    Shadow looked at both River and Frost."Prey has been running well in the deep undergrowth.Lots of Mice."he mewed with an edge of wariness.

    Stopping beside her Tribemate, River opened her mouth wide. Few prey scents. All I can smell is the wind blown mountain top..Wait...I smell a...could it be a rabbit?! River looked over at Frost and flicked her ears toward the prey-scent, signalling that there was a rabbit nearby.

    Shadows ear flicked."Ill get it."he mewed.He dropped in a crouch and stalked towards the rabbit.He lashed a paw out and struck the rabbits neck,killing it."Thats how its done."he mewedicking up the rabbit with his teeth."Wanna share?"He asked River and Frost.

    (Shadow, River and Frost are on a mission. :/ they aren't even near the Tribe's camp. sorry :()

    River crouched down, sliding carefully along the ground toward the rabbit. With silent paws, River put nearly all her weight on her hind paws, unsheathing her claws as she waited for the right moment. As soon as the rabbit moved, River pounced, gripping the rabbit's neck with a death grip in her jaws. As soon as the rabbit grew still, she carried it toward Frost. "Here." She mewed, dropping it on the ground. The scent-of fresh-kill made her mouth water. "You get first bite, Frost." She mewed, sitting down with her tail wrapped neatly around her paws.

    "Thank you." Frostsaid siting down to take a bit.
    Arraw!" A eagle screeched asit caught sight of the prey, and cats. It swooped for the rabbit. frost hissed and went up on her hind legs and sratched at the eagle. The eagle screeched again going for another swoop. As it got near the rabbit. Frost jumped on its back to weight it down and bit its neck. It gave one final screech and fell to the ground with a sokt thud
    "Now we have a eagle too." She mewed.
