Bones nodded. "Sure. I just don't want a hanging nail." She stated.
//ruushed.

Bones approached this stranger. She had been out, looking for Phantomstep, when glossy white fur made her look. She thought for a second. "Umm. I'm pretty sure I have to ask for your name and buisness. I don't see why, sicne we automatically accept joiners. Well... then it my be a rogue. But anyways, name and buisness?" She questioned.

Bones nodded. "Welcome to StormClan!" She purred.

Bones was about to put her ear to the conch when something shiny caught her attention. Since she was facing the ocean she saw the bottle wash up to shore. Without saying anything, Bones half limped past the ebony she to the green tinted bottle.

Bones of course approached, drawn by the familiar voice of Phantomstep. She limped slightly, her shoulder wound still bandaged and hurting. Ah, but nothing would stop her from getting to Phantom. How had he started the fire without catching his own fur on fire? What ever the reason, she hobbled up to Phantom, gently licked his cheek before retrieving a blanket. She sat down, gazing at the fire and then at Phantomstep. "Beautiful fire, Phantom." She commented, not really knowing what else to say.

(( No problem! Plus cheesiness ahead as well.))

Bones slightly tensed as he wrapped his tail around her and rested his chin atop her head. She quickly relaxed though, as not to make him stop. He was so warm, and it made her feel like she belonged. It blurred her vision slightly. Her body went numb to the outside world, filled with his burning presence. It made her heart race. She turned her head slightly, her cheek now resting on his neck.
"I suppose I don't need to. And you mustn't hold your breath around me." She answered him quietly. And to him being smitten? "I'm smitten as a kitten." She purred, closing her eyes.

//omg. Agreed. Infact, I agree way too much.\\
Bones would smile at the lick, and look at him. She smiled slightly and looked back at the fire. When he whispered he would be right back, she nodded to him and continued to gaze at the dancing fire before her. It was like a star; fiery, hot, and died when it got too old. It made her face burn, so she looked around at other cats, blinded slightly until her eyes adjusted. She spotted Dottie and Spidersilk, Butterfly, and the rest she had yet to meet.

Her attention was yet again returned to Phantomstep when he offered a marshmallow, which she gratefully accepted, holding it in her paw pad before sticking the whole thing in her mouth, chewing gratefully. It may have took a while, but she was eventually able to swallow it.

¨Scientifically, a green wine bottle. But, if my eyes are correct, there is a piece of what i guess to be paper in there. Therefore, movie wise, a bottled note.¨ Bones concluded, studying the thing. She nudged it with a claw, pinning her ears when it made a slight high pitched sound. Using her claw yet again, she wedged it in between the cork and rim, popping the cork off. She then rolled it upside down, finding the note as dropped out of the bottle and into the sand.

Temperance crouched down at the paper, attempting to read it. It was impossible to read I paid down so she moved over next to Spidersilk. Ah. Now she could read it. It took a while but she was able to decode it. "I think I can read it. It says... I have made a home on an island. I am all alone. Sometimes I wonder how big the world is. I look at the stars and they are infite. I wish I could be infite too. November 19th, 1988." She read.

Bones wandered around the camp, humming a song she had gotten stuck in her head. Well. Not really singing it anymore. Bones had found a small flat area.
"Taking steps towards your door." She sang, gently twirling. " I hadn't let myself before. Her your name, call. She screams your name, call. As you take her to the floor... think she likes that?" Now Bones carefully placed her paws, twisting and turning in her own dance, and you could hear her faintly singing 'Hide'. "Feel so haunted in your bed... is it me or is it her that's in your head? And you found it, but you drowned. And you washed it clean. Feed me words while you have her between your sheets. Bet she likes that!" Yet again, she went placing her paws with expertise, dancing, twirling. "Hiide. See you dancing in the dark." Now Bones slowed, an easily dance with few twirls. "Can you see me, count to three, no I won't play your hide and seek. She repeated this three more times. "Hiide. See you dancing in the dark." She picked up speed. And when the song ended in her head, she stopped and bowed before sitting down, aware that some one could have heard her... or seen her.

Even Bones had no idea what the numbers meant. She blinked, nodding to Spidersilk. "Maybe he was part of a wrecked ship." Then it clicked. "He must have been part of a wrecked ship! Long ago, history, people traveled by boat to other continents. Maybe his ship was wrecked and he was the only survivor. He wrote this in an act of keeping sane." Bones offered.

Bones smiled. Her boyfriend was promoted! "Congrats!" She said to everyone who had been promoted. She vowed she would earn her keep, one way or another.

It bothered her, really. What was she going to give Phantom this Valentines Day? It was so close, yet she had come up with nothing. She thought of flowers, but Phantom wasn't like that. She had even considered chocolate, but cats can't have chocolate. Wait. That was it! If she could come up with some code for a cat friendly chocolate, she would be good! She just needed to come up with some elements that would cause a chemical reaction for the chocolate, just leaving out the stuff that the cat couldn't have. But she couldn't do this alone, could she? She paced back and forth, still thinking.

Bones blinked in surprise. "I don't think he will get it... but maybe. It's worth a shot." Bones agreed, flipping the note over. "Got a pencil, a feather and ink, anything?" She asked the ebony tabby next to her.

Bones jumped slightly, not realizing it was Spidersilk. Yet when she looked over she spotted the ebony feline. "Chocolate for Phantomstep." She told Spidersilk proudly. Yet her eyes held concern for Spidersilk. She wasn't... Spidersilk. I mean, even with her foot in a cast, she was always so happy. She was so diffrent. Bones was mostly out of her bandages now: she could walk on the torn claw and she had a nice nick in the ear, her shoulder bandages were all that were left. Nontheless, Bones smiled at Spidersilk. "And I need some help." She gave Spidersilk a chance to help.

Bones turned just right to see two of her clanmates. She immediately felt her pelt heat up in embarrassment and glance around. "Hi." She said to both Meteorpaw and Lessa. They had seen her, hadn't they?

Bones nodded to both. "Alright! I need help thinking of what a cat can't have in chocolate, but still allow it to be sweet." She told them, thinking. What was poisonous to a cat that was in chocolate?

Bones smiled. "That should do it! Nice work, Spidersilk!" She said, taking the chalk carefully in her mouth. "Tell me what to write." She said, careful not to lick the rock.

//OCTOBER NUUUUUU

Temperance had been wandering along the ocean shore, searching for anything, like a bottle or something. And did she find something. A red lump. She crept up closer until she realized what it was; October. Quickly, she fastened her teeth around his scruff and attempted to drag him away from the water. She succeeded. She then checked for any signs of life. Nothing. Nothing at all. She pinned her ears.
"No." She, for once, felt great saddness. She didn't know the fox very well, but seeing him there, lifeless with out even dieing a hero, broke her. He looked so helpless. She nudged him, hoping he would suddenly start breathing, even though she knew it was hopeless.
