The tom muttered a small 'thank you' before gulping up the few catmint leaves. He struggled to swallow three of them, but he went into a coughing fit, causing bit and peices of the leaves to propell onto the stone floor. He laid his head back down, wheezing terribly.

It was sunhigh now. Tobias looked at his wound, now wrapped in a soft cloth. He took his jaws, using his teeth to tighten it. "There," he said to himself. "Well," Tobias started, "I think I'd fancy nap," he said, parting his jaws to release a yawn. He sprinted away from under the tree, aiming for a log that has falled from a tree and into the cottage. He bounded, leaping onto the log and then onto the roof, lying on the roof letting his black-tipped tail dangle through the hole.

OOC: I applaud your role-playing skills.

IC: He swallowed the sweet honey and catmint, soothing his throat just enough to swallow. The tom, once he had completely swallowed the catmint and honeycomb, said a 'thank you' once again. The wheezing decreased and grew quieter, but was still able to be heard.

OOC: Woah, that song is so beautiful.
OOC, NPC: Like you, ShardStone.
OOC: Oh, Gavin.

IC: Tobias' ears perked up, listening to the blissful melody coming from below. He turned the other way, That worthless noise has no use but annoyance, the voice of his father rang in his head.

Flashback: It was a freezing, snow-filled day in Leaf-Bare. Tobias was playing with his sister, Dolly, in the sparkling white blanket that spread over their Two-Legs' backyard. Their father, Conner, was also in the cold with the kittens. Tobias discovered a strange object, left on the back porch by the Two-Legs. Tobias laid a paw on it, causing it to make a loud BOOM. "Daddy, look what I found!" Tobias exclaimed, looking at the new item. Dolly ran to Tobias' side, hitting her paws on the top of the thing, causing a beat to unfold. "It's a drum; I heard a Two-Leg call it a drum while it was banging on it, but it sounded cool!" Dolly exclaimed, her grey pelt bristling with excitement. Conner was on the fence at the other end of the yard, studying something nearby. "I bet I can make it sound awesome!" Tobias said, banging on the drum with his paws. "La la la la," Dolly meowed a melody to go along. Conner's ears twitched as he heard the noise from behind him. "Stop that racket!" the father yelled, annoyed. "But Daddy," the kittens pleaded. "No!" he yelled back. "That worthless noise has no use! Only annoys the less IDIOTIC cats!" the father angrily shrieked, jumping of the fence and casting a blow at Tobias, knocking him down. Dolly flinched, running off in the other direction. "You worthless kit!" Conner yelled as he clawed at the defenseless kitten. Tobias screamed and squealed, but no one came. Every cat in the house knew of father's anger problems, and they weren't going to deal with it.

IC: Tobias shrunk away from the memory, entering reality. ShardStone was still producing the beautiful sound. "Hey, er, Shard," Tobias called from the top of the roof.

OOC: Why thank you, miss.

IC: The tom looked up at her from the ground, a grateful look in his eyes. He laid his head back down, letting a long yawn escape his jaws before closing his eyes, attempting to enter the realm of sleep.

OOC, NPC:
OOC: Gavin was a total flirt.. Before I murdered him.
OOC, NPC: I'll get you back one day, Tobias.
OOC: Oh, I'm sorry, I can't hear you, YOU'RE DEAD. :)

IC: I think she can read minds, he sarcastically thought to himself. "Hm, well then, is there anything I can play down there?" Tobias said, scanning the room below, his amber eyes glimmering.

OOC, NPC: I'll make you go for dead cats.
OOC: Gavin, buzz off.
OOC, NPC: NOT UNTIL I'M LOVED.
OOC: That female in Dark Forest said she likes you, you know, the really sexy one?
OOC, NPC: Clover?
OOC: Sure, whatever.
OOC, NPC: HELL YEAH! SEEYA IN DARK FOREST SUCKERS!!
OOC: He's gone now. :)

IC: "Drum!" Tobias blurted out quickly, leaping through the hole to the ground below. He trotted to the edge of the room, under a broken window, where a drum lay. He smiled, placing a paw on top. He began to play, humming a tune as his paws went wild.

Beat:

The tom awoke at moonhigh, noticing the she-cat that had helped him was fast asleep. He was feeling a tad stronger now, so he lifted up onto his hind quarters and sat, feeding on the prey she had left for him. He groomed his paws afterwards, deciding he should get some fresh air; it was beautiful outside. He raised up, padding out of the maw of the cave. He plopped down on the grassy ground outside of the cave, still feeling a pain in his chest, but not as bad as before. He turned onto his back, looking up at the stars. His grey pelt shined in the moonlight, his blue eyes sparkling with starlight. A small smile spread across his lips as he felt the soft breeze flowing past him.

OOC: Woah. You're going to murder Tobias with awesome-ness.

IC: Tobias stopped playing, his amber eyes stared at the two in amazement. I've never heard anything like it.. It's just.. Tobias thought, mouth agape. He wanted to say a compliment, but he couldn't speak.

OOC: May I borrow the idea of making a dead cat appear? But Tobias will make a Dark Forest cat appear instead of StarClan, and communicate to him in Latin.

IC: "Y-Yeah," Tobias replied, snapping back into reality.

OOC: YEEEEESSSHH!! OH JOY! Ahem, thanks.

IC: Tobias cleared his throat, "That was epic," was the only words he could choke out. He shook his head, snapping back into reality, again. "Well, if you like my drumming," Tobias continued, his eyes filling with black, "..Then watch this," he smiled. "Appare BloodRun. In quacumque die invocavero te nemus. Appare! Appare!" Tobias chanted, his eyes a full black.

Tobias laughed maniacly, "Appare! Appare!" as a dark, heavyset tom began to appear. A black smoke surrounded him, and the smell of death and sickness spread throughout the room. "Tobias salutem," a demonic voice spoke. "BloodRun salutem," Tobias said, his voice darker than before. "Qui est femina?" BloodRun asked, looking over at ShardStone. "Shard," Tobias answered. "Llla est, servus tuus?" BloodRun questioned. "Non omnino, non! Shard, est ad alterum lacum." Tobias said, glancing at Shard then back to BloodRun.

OOC: Translate for last post: They said 'Greetings' to eachother, then BloodRun asked if you were his slave. Tobias answered by saying that she was just his den mate.

The two toms carried on a conversation as Shard stepped forward. BloodRun looked a Tobias, a quizzical look in his eyes, "Llla est, alterum coniugem tuam?" he asked. Tobias' ears turned red, as he started to blush. "Non, non vere. Tu forsitan putas, quod voluerit, ut quidam forsitan me?" Tobias asked, looking hopefull at the large tom that stood before him. "Sed fieri potest," BloodRun answered.

Translation: BloodRun: Is she your mate mate?
Tobias: No, not really. Do you think she might maybe kind of like me?
BloodRun: Possibly.

"Oh, Shard, this is BloodRun. He was my old friend when I was young," Tobias said, looking at Shard with a comforting look in his eyes.

"Salutem," BloodRun greeted Shard, "Tibicen," he answered, then turned back to Tobias. "Est Lorem feminam," BloodRun meowed. Tobias was blushing even more now, "Tace!" Tobias yowled at BloodRun. "Just dicens," BloodRun snorted. "Beatorum modo possumus pervenire, cur hic?" Tobias pleaded, wanting to move on from this subject. "Quidquid," BloodRun replied.

Translation:
BloodRun: Greetings.
BloodRun: Saxophone
BloodRun: She is a sexy female.
Tobias: Shut up!
BloodRun: Just saying.
Tobias: Can we just get to why I ordered you here?
BloodRun: Whatever.

"Ego genus.. Bene.. eius quod est velle, ut enarrent mirabilia tua," Tobias hung his head low, embarrassed. "Aww, quam suavis," BloodRun laughed. "In hoc enim mirabile esr tibicen, Shard." BloodRun said, turning to Shard.

Translation:
Tobias: I kind of.. Well.. Wanted to impress her.
BloodRun: Aww, how sweet.
BloodRun: The saxophone is amazing, Shard.

BloodRun looked back to Tobias, "Imprimi vis, si feminam, oppugnant, hem illudere eam quantum ambules, quantum potest," BloodRun said. "Uhm.. Erm.." Tobias' legs felt like jelly, he wobbled from side to side, he was blushing severely at the 'seduce' part of the sentence.

Translation:
BloodRun: If I ever want to impress a female, I wrestle with her, take her on walks and seduce her as much as I can.

OOC: Shard, I had already typed this by the time I found out you posted the last post.. I'll make this sad development up to you.

IC: "Shard, oportet me esse. Gratias agam," BloodRun said, giving Shard a lick on the cheek. "Possum ire nunc?" BloodRun questioned. "Err.. Certus," Tobias answered. "Discedite tenebris mundi ad peccatum. Relinquite quieta sunt in te regna. Recedite polluti! Recedite polluti! Recedite polluti!" Tobias chanted loudly, the voices of many cats filling the cottage, screams and cries, whining and yowling. Black smoke filled the room. "Ego praecipio tibi ut abeam, BloodRun!" with that, BloodRun had dissapeared, and the cottage was back to normal.

Trans.:
BloodRun: Shard, I must go. I apologize.
BloodRun: Can I go now?
Tobias: Sure.
Tobias: Depart to the world of dark and sin. Leave the peaceful realm you are in. Depart! Depart! Depart!
Tobias: I order you to depart, BloodRun!

The tom sat to the side, under a tree near the mouth of the cave. He watched another feline enter, after following the same trail of daisies that brought him to the medic.
