Whisper managed a brief nod in reply,his delicate ears twitching as he took note of Ivory's uncomfortableness."Please to meet you,Ivory.I'm Whisper."The dark gray-and-white tom felt quick embarassment spread rapidly in his belly, knowing that his name was so unsual and sort of embarassing.Relieving his body from the sitting position he had assumed,the young loner stretched each leg, dipping his head towards the current fellow loner."Well,sorry,I must be on my way now.There's som etravelling I still haven't done."He meowed to her,his gaze growing distant as he turned his head to survey the wide stretch of moor.

"Sunrisepaw."The she-cat answered formally,looking up from her washing expectantly,as if she were asking for his name as well.The tabby apprentice's fur glowed in the sunlight as she twisted her body around to stare back at Stormpaw.
-
He shrugged with indifference,and lay back down again,rubbing his black fur against the warmth of the rocks and grass.As the sunlight hit his pelt,the tom closed his amber oculars briefly,and sighed contently.
-
ooc;I guess.
ic;(gotta post later.))
-
Delight lit the male loner's cerulean gaze and he purred in reply,"Why,thank-you,Ivory."The young tomcat dipped his head smoothly to show his gratitude,and ignored the slight grumble of his digestive system.Whisper had eyed the she-cat's swift clancat movements as she had caught the rabbit,and admiration had formed in his belly as well.The she-cat seemed to be very small and delicate, yet the tom noticed how nimble and light she was on her paws.His whiskers twitched as he twisted his body around to face the she-cat and her fresh-kill.
-
Pebblestorm instantly opened his oculars,and leaped into a surprised position,with his back arched and fur bristling."Starclan?!"The marbled tom gasped,his ears flattned towards the back of his head.His muscles relaxing,he eyed the she-cat who had been 'stealing' herbs from the border."You?"The young Shadowclanner grumbled,and slumped down onto the snow-covered shore.His amber gaze flicking towards her,he didn't feel the need to challenge the pretty medicine cat of trespassing.It was obvious she had just saved his life.But I didn't want saving. He thought,a rush of rage splashing in his chest.
He looked up,his spine straightened feebly."I...I didn't need saving!I wanted to die,so it wasn't really your buisness to interfere!"He spat,a growl echoing in his throat.He managed to stumble to his paws,a wave of embarrassment and exhaustion wiping his body like the tides of the Sun-Drown-Place.Pebblestorm heaved a short inhale of a breath,and felt his long legs sink into the white snow.He was sure the female Riverclanner was purely enraged at his ingratitude,but he didn't care.He needed to find an other way to die--no matter how stupid.
-
Sunrisepaw had to admit that the young gray-furred apprentice was well-muscled and quite attractive,too,and suddenly a wave of embarrassment washed over her pelt.Bending her head down,she was sure he tabby fur was ruffled and weird-looking,and she squirmed uncomfortably to lick her chest fur down.
Her gray-blue oculars were focused on her washing,her tongue licking as swiftly as it could,and as she paused,she realized she couldn't feel her tongue as much anymore.Ignoring the numbing feeling,the ginger-white-and-brown she-cat curled her tail around her paws,feeling awkward as she watched the seemingly nervous tom."Do...you want to play?"Was her stupid reply to his name.She could have smacked her face,and she tensed her muscles unexpectantly.
-
ooc;okay!i'm back!!!!!
ic;The dark-furred tom pricked his ears unexpectantly,but his feral instinct told him to kill the creature lurking around the corner.Could it be a rat?Or a dog?Delight and pleasure coursed through his Blooclan veins,and he unsheathed his claws giddily.Cloverfrost crouched expectantly,his amber orbs blinking at the wreathing,mysterious scent from the other corner.A rat scurried past him,but the black TwolegPlace warrior ignored its swift pawsteps falling on the hard ground.
Cloverfrost flicked his ears,his tail waving on the ground wildly,but his features were expressionless as he waited impatiently.Surely the dog would have scented him already to chase him?And what a surprise it was about the receive.If it was a rat,it would have ran away,but probably curious to see if it was just Cloverfrost's remains of food.Time slowed down for the tom,and he flexed his claws into the ground,making sure to gouge it a little.
-
ooc;kittenstar,please,um...this is advanced thread.So please play/rp advanced.AND I wil ignore your posts,until it is advanced...so my apologies once more.
ic;White(for short,my friends,) flicked his tail lightly,his maw returning to its expressionless frown as he treaded cautiously over the slopes of the Windclan moors.The blind cat straightened his spine abruptly,pausing momentarily to taste the air.SInce he was downwind,he could scent the clear scents of a Windclanner,not too far from his current position.White flexed his claws in delight,and twisted his head around,his sightless gray-blue eyes staring at the faraway trees that aligned the borders of the four clans around the lake.Windclan would be so much fun.
The tom stretched his left back leg,and let a brief smirk rest on his maw as he continued his search for any Windclanners.The scent grew expectantly stronger,and he waved his tail wildly,hoping to get the feline's attention.Unless it was stupid,the cat would come rushing over and accuse him of trespassing.He had his all figured out,and White could already feel the victory of success wash over his pelt.His silver-and-black striped fur bristled when he thought of his littermates and family.It wouldn't be long until they saw what had become of their loyal and trustworthy former deputy.A blind mess they had to take pity on.
Although he could hunt and fight perfectly well,he would allow the Windclanners to take him in pity and excitement for their deputy who had thought to be dragged off my a fox--alive!Then,he would take advantage of their leader,and manipulate him or her to his own needs.
-
It felt strange,allowing another feline to catch food to share with him.Dove had done that,and only her.Grief flooded his gaze,but he bowed his head to acknowledge the she-cat's offer of food by taking a neat bite.The muscular,lean tom's fur lay flat as he reminded himself yet again that Dove had been the past,and he had to look to the present.Whisper nudged the dead,yet warm rabbit towards Ivory,his stomach seeming to purr with joy at the feeling of a fuller belly.The young tom swallowed the bit of rabbit meat,his jaws unclamping so he could speak tot he former clan she-cat."You hunt very well,by the way."He meowed,his cerulean oculars searching her thoughtful features.
She looked a little like Dove,Whisper noticed immedietely,and a oft purr rose in his chest.Abruptly,he made sure to cut the delighted sound off,so Ivory wouldn't be able to question him about it.Uncurling his tail nervously,the smooth tom had never felt anxious before.He'd rather act cool about things,than sob like an overly-sensitive she-cat.Licking a paw,the gray-and-white loner hated the way he noticed things easily--like how he never felt weird--but in a pleasant way,of course--with Dove.
-
"I-It's quite simple actually."Sunrisepaw stammered,scolding herself mentally for the anxious feeling in her chest.Blinking at him,the tabby forced a playful purr,and crouched immedietely.The she-cat's tail dropped excitedly,and she nimbly leaped upon the gray apprentice,her oculars narrowed in concentration as she obviously tried to use her speed to counter Stormpaw's larger size.
The young apprentice lightly brushed her tail across the tom's muzzle as she delicately stepped off his back,trying to get him to attack her.She crouched once more,and a purr rose in her throat much more easily now.She hoped she had at least surprised Stormpaw,if not loosened his tense suspicion.
-
A menacing growl rose from his throat,finally released as he leaped at her with his claws unsheathed.Dangerously eager to finish off the creature,Cloverfrost hadn't realized the 'dog' was a Kittypet.A curious one,indeed.Swerving to the right,the black-furred tom's surprise at encountering a female Kittypet was enough to send him crashing into the Twoleg crowfood things.He scattered the repulsive silver stuff,and dodged as the remains of a sort of bird almost collided with his head.Panting,he winced as he halted to a stop,his amber orbs confused for a moment.His now bruised paw was throbbing dully,and Cloverfrost ignored a sharp pang as he steadied himself.
His ears flattened,he felt the dog teeth on his collar poking the sides of his scruff,but he ignored it,too furious with the cat who had disrupted his agile stance."Curses!"He muttered,and glared at the female feline,his expression enraged."You almost died!I could have killed you,and not that I mind or anything,but because I thought you were another kill I could add to my collection!"He spat,seething with uncontrollable anger.Cloverfrost hissed again,his tail lashing as he growled defiantly at the Kittypet.
-
Amusement rippled off from his pelt,but the surprisingly young former deputy tilted his head back at the Windclan she-cat,by the scent of it."Hello,"He answered coolly,a smirk lighting his maw as he acknowledged her presence."Who is your leader now?"The question lingered in the moor's open space,and White had to admit that it was indee an oddity of a question.Imagine a stranger asking who was a clan's leader when he could have never been apart of it,but seems to know exactly what was going on.Turning his sightless silver oculars upon the she-cat,he waited for her response,already sensing her brisk hostility.White hoped it wasn't that old blundering mess of a Windclan leader.Wishstar was quite the elder,and by the time White had been 'dragged' off by an intruding fox,the old leader could have appointed a new deputy.
Although he had been well-liked,it was possible the older clancats remembered him.However,it wasn't impossible that they hadn't approved of Wishstar's extremely young choice.Even if this she-cat requested his name,White had decided that it was best for the plan that he stated his former and current names in the camp.

Snapping out ofhis daze,the gray-and-white tom eyed the rabbit and ducked his head swiftly to bite the toughened meat of the freshkill.He risked a side-glance at Ivory,and a sly smirk played on his maw as he spoke,"I came from my mother, of course."Whisper answered cheekily,and licked his paw to wash his whiskers,which had caught little bits of rabbit meat in between their delicate depths.The tom's cerulean gaze raked the moorland quickly,but he turned back to Ivory.Suddenly,he detected the faint,but approaching scents of more clancats,and he winced in alarm before leaping to his paws nimbly.
"Sorry,but I must go."He licked his chest fur,smoothing it down after he told the current female loner.His ears swivelling towards the quick pawsteps of rapid felines,Whisper tensed.(BTW,I hope you don't mind me rping a few Windclanners.)Not long after the short-haired tom had spoken,three skinny cats appeared with their menacing glares penetrating Whisper's pelt.
-
Shock rippled through his paws like falling rain,and Pebblestorm sucked in a trembling breath."It's not really your buisness."The marbled feline began,his heart lurching at the sight of a cat who finally cared.Pebblestorm paused,pondering whether he should tell her.It wasn't like she would care deeply,anyway.Besides,the handsome wild cat added to himself,It would be a relief to let everything spill out at last. "You don't know what it's like;being mocked and hated by every last clanmate you have.Not even my parents love me."The black-and-brown swirls on his pelt lifted with the rest of his beige fur,and he bared his teeth in a meek snarl.
Pebblestorm felt rage and sadness both flood his chest at once,and the tom's heart broke into two as he continued."But it doesn't matter.I'm prepared to die again,and you know we'll all end up in Starclan sooner or later.They'll be glad I came to them."The young cat finished,and turned his back half-heartedly on the Riverclanner,his ears flattened.
-
Whisper felt too overwhelmed to answer the former Windclanner.Instead,he managed a quick nod of acceptance,his tail whisking behind him in tense silence.At last,a small gray-and-white she-cat steped forward;her heather-colored eyes piercing the two loners in a superior manner."How nice to see you,Ivory_____."The she-cat flicked her ears,and the two nother toms quickly advanced menacingly,both of their muscles rippling under their thin pelts.Whisper's cerulean orbs narrowed as he backed away from the small group of bristling cats,and he growled."We were just leaving."He meowed cautiously,his chin high.
The gray-and-white she-cat smirked knowingly."No,you are coming back with us to be prisonners,and we'll show you what we do to cats who steal prey."Her muzzle high,she pointed at the remains of the dead rabbit at their paws with her long,plumy tail."Don't put up a fight,or we'll shred you.Right,Honeybriar?"The smallest tom warned,and his voice changed into uncertainty as he gazed up at Honeybriar,the leading she-cat.Honeybriar nodded,and stepped forward,"Well said,Fallingpaw."She approved,giving the small cat a flick on the shoulder gently.Whisper swivelled his ears towards Ivory,hoping to get her attention before the cats noticed his brief movements.
-
"Are you Pineclan apprentices always this tense?You're no fun!"Sunrisepaw mock-pouted,her position disturbed as she sat up abruptly.Although she didn't approve of what Pineclan was teaching their apprentices,Sunrisepaw had to admit that perhaps suspicion of Auroraclanners made them strong.
The brown-and-auburn apprentice's fur tickled her muzzle as she buried her face into her chest fur,lapping at it before lifting her head to study Stormpaw.Her blue-gray oculars sparking with playfulness,the female titled her head slightly to catch a glimspe of the young tom's features more clearly.Sighing inwardly,she purred softly in a dreamy manner,her soft fur standing on end as she stared tensely.
He was so...serious,yet Sunrisepaw felt a burst of admiration and something else she could not put her paw on.The tabby liked the way his lean muscles moved under his pelt as he recovered his balance from her leaps on him,and the way his blue optics made her heart flutter were both intriging characteristics that couldn't be ignored.
-
Simply blinking at her with cold silver orbs,White nodded briefly before he answered her request,"Fair enough."The twenty-four-moons-old loner meowed in reply,his left ear twitching."I came to see Wishstar,but hearing that he is no longer....with your clan,I request to see Fireflystar."He stated a matter-of-factly.He curled his tail in a delighted manner,awaiting the Windclan warrior's reaction to his polite,yet slightly smug reply.His paws itched to run on the moor again,but since he had been more suited for woodland nowadays,White struggled to admit that his blindness would only cause him to trip over the open space.
Tasting the air,White narrowed his optics at Peonylight,even if he couldn't see her.His voice was now tinged with slight impatience,for he could even feel the pawsteps of another Windclan patrol on the moorland's ground approaching swiftly."I don't mean to intrude or trespass your territory,but I want to get to your camp quick."The taste of revenge sparked in his pelt,and he bit back a growl of annoyance.It wouldn't be good to come into camp with a bigger group of cats,for attention was the last thing he needed.Sighing inwardly,he felt the presence of two or three more felines thudding their way towards him and this slow-talking she-cat.
"Peonylight;who is this strange...um...loner?"A masculine voice demanded harshly,his voice ringing with authority.Although White knew the tom wasn't the deputy,the warrior's vocie was stuffed with smug bossiness.White turned his sightless silver gaze on the tom,smirking as he felt the tom flinch at his blind stare."I'm right here,and I'd appreciate it if you led me to your camp."He repeated,his soft voice louder.A she-cat meowed,"Flamefall,you know perfectly well Peonylight can handle this on her own."White's whiskers twitched,and he let out a low sigh.
-
Fear for his new companion and rage as well surged over his pelt,and Whisper shook his head in the briefest of movements,lashing his tail to show his stubborness in disobeying her order.The lean male feline surveyed the bristling Windclan cats,and arched his back in defense,flexing his claws against the moorland soil.The tom let out a low hiss,eyeing Honeybriar,then the small male kit,and finally the last and strongest companion they had brought along."It's difficult enough to even speak to you--why would we fight a kit?"The tom's voice was icy calm,and he regarded the 'apprentice' with even colder dislike.
Fallingpaw crouched back,his tail in between his legs as he let out a low whimper at the two loners' replies,both semingly directed towards him.Instantly,Honeybriar stepped in front of him."Well,Ivory and...er...her trespasser friend;you cannot speak that way tomy apprentice!Insulting Windclanners are more or less another reason for you to accompany us as prisonners."The slim thin-furred female spat out,her green gaze narrowed icily.At last,the last tom advanced,the aura around him calmer;and more relaxed."Ivory,"The white-furred tom dipped his head politely,his gaze glittering with affection.((How about he had a crush on her before she left?Then things between him and WHisper get fiesty....MWHAHAHAHAHA!))
Whisper fought down a wave of suspicion and delibrate anxiety.Why did he feel that way?He had noticed the white tom's clear affection for the new loner,and it should not have bothered him;yet,he had to resist clawing the tom's ears for even looking at her that way.
-
Sunrisepaw landed on her back with excited surprise,her gray-aqua circles stretched wide as she fell backwards.Shifting so she could loosen the heavier weight upon her torso,the she-cat purred as Stormpaw leaned down to nuzzle the space between her chest and chin.Although his pine scent was repulsive,he was already starting to smell like her,his fur covered with her sweeter scent glands.
"I'll show you what game we're playing..."The tabby answered misheaviously,her eyes glittering slyly as she eased her backlegs udner the tom's belly,and pushing off with some effort."Oof!You're heavy!!"She exclaimed in protest,as her long,but dainty legs collasped after a moment."But I still like you."Sunrisepaw had leaned up to rasp her tongue over his ear playfully,but somehow the words slipped out from her parted paw."Oh!I meant I still l-like p-playing with you!"She let her head gently fall back to the earth,her heart thudding in embarrassment.How stupid of her to mention a mousebrained feeling when she had just met him!
