The four cats reach the river. "Is that over there ShadowClan?" Asks Stripepaw. That excuse I just told Silverpaw was as close to the truth without telling it, he thinks.
"Yes. Can you smell a scent, something else, other than ThunderClan's?" Asks Darkpelt.
Taking a small sniff, Stripepaw replies, "Yes. Something sour..."
"That's ShadowClan scent for you, Stripepaw," Meows Lionstar. "Silverpaw, what about you?"
*sniff* * sniff* "It smells like *sniff* something dirty" Silverpaw meows wrinkling her nose.
"Close enough. Remember the scent, or you won't be able to distinguish ally- or enemy," Meows Lionstar, "Let's move on to WindClan. We won't be able to get to RiverClan, as it's too far away."
"Agreed," Replies Darkpelt, padding after him.
"Er... let's go," Meows Stripepaw, padding after them.
Why is Stripepaw acting weird all of a sudden....It started by the time we left camp she thought "Okay" Silverpaw meows keeping pace with him.
Stripepaw raises his head to look around, but he sees that Lionstar and Darkpelt weren't there. Puzzled, he peers around. "Where'd they go?" He meows, taking another step before stopping. He cautiously takes another step, suddenly letting out a cry and falling into a pitch-black tunnel. "Huh?" He tries to climb out, but the hole's too high and he couldn't get a paw-hold. Not that it would matter much as the tunnel was wet.
Silverpaw saw that Stripepaw fell down a hole and couldn't get back out and saw that Lionstar and Darkpelt fell down the same hole but look like they were knocked out "Stripepaw what should I do" Silverpaw meows afraid.
"I don't know, but I'm going to find a way out. If there is, that is," He calls back before slipping into the shadows, not waiting for a reply. He doesn't like the feel of this place, it reminds him too much of the Dark Forest. Half of the time he was glancing behind his back to make sure he wasn't being stalked or making sure he didn't get torn to shreds, or pounced on. Turning around the dusky corners, he can hear a steady drip, drip. After a while, he rounds onto a small river. "A river here? Hm..." He meows, leaning to take a sip.
"Be carefull I will run back to camp for Fawndaze and Whitestorm maybe they can help" Silverpaw yowels down the hole and starts to run back to camp.
"You are lost,"a voice whispers. Stripepaw whips around, looking around. "No way out..." it echoes.
"Who's there?" Demands Stripepaw. When no reply came, he mumbles, "I must be hearing things." Following the tunnels, he stops when he sees some light. "Hey, that must be the way out!" He hops out of it, only to see unfamiliar sights. "Why is it so dark... by StarClan it's moon-high?! Most of all... where am I?"
Silverpaw gets lost trying by all the different smells of cats and can't seem to find her way to camp, but thinks she can her another cat and walks around the bend I can't beilve its moon-high already she thought.
"Fox... I can smell it..." He mutters. "I need shelter, I'm not going to get back to camp in one piece by this time." He noses his way into a small cave, finding some bracken. He covers the entrance of the cave with it before laying down, keeping an eye at the entrance. I'll find my way back in the morning.
Is that a fox I smell!!!! Silverpaw runs cause now she can hear the fox and sees a tiny hole in the ground that lead into to a burrow and the next thing she knows after pushing herself through the tiny hole she bumps into another cat...
Stripepaw lets out a squeal, as he had been asleep. Snapping awake, he twists and forces his body upwards, attempting to knock her off, as he didn't know who ran into him.
Silverpaw lands on her feet and turns around to face the unknown cat ears laid back and started to snarl and hiss since she hadn't picked up his sent yet.
Launching himself into the air when someone's on top of him has become Stripepaw's signature move XD)) "Go aw- Silverpaw?" He meows.
Silverpaw stops snarling, hissing and gets out of her crouch "Stripepaw is that you?" she meows uncertainly.
"Yes, it's me! how did you find me?" Meows Stripepaw.
"I didn't....I mean I didn't try to I was trying to get away from a fox, so I went through the exit hole to this old burrow" Silverpaw meows relaxing now.
"A fox? That must be the same one. Hm.... looks like we're stuck here until that fox goes away," meows Stripepaw, "Hopefully it doesn't find us."
"Yes let's hope it doesn't catch either of our scents.....so what do we do in the mean time?" Silverpaw meows sitting down by Stripepaw.
