OOC: I got a new subbacount for Lava!
IC: Lavaflow felt another, fainter ripple, like something smaller falling into the magma. She wondered what it was, then quickly made an effort to forget about it. This fight was between her and Riddlepaw. If something else got in the way and was destroyed because of it, that was it's problem.
Lavaflow re-surfaced, she needed to breath. Contrary to what she pretended, she couldn't stay under the surface of her magma forever. Even with all her power, she was still just a cat.
Sensing that the fight was over, Lavaflow swam to solid ground and padded away in the direction of camp, leaving a trail of smoking obsidian pawprints in her wake.
Lavaflow padded into camp and flopped down on her nest in the warriors den. The dark she-cat sighed, after her long fight, she felt ready to sleep for a whole moon.
Lavaflow raised her head to look at him. "What's wrong?" she asked grumpily. "I'm trying to sleep."
Lavaflow put her head back on her paws, preparing to sleep, but seemed to change her mind. "Uh, no, it's fine." she called to Hawkclaw apologetically. "Sorry."
IC: Lavaflow raised an eyebrow, wondering if he was being sarcastic or not.
OOC: X3
She closed her eyes, a small smile on her face.
Lavaflow, who had been snoozing in the warriors den, raised her head and glared at Amberpaw.
OOC: Don't mind Lavaflow, she's the charrie I use for venting anger. XD
IC: "Who are you?" Lavaflow mewed, ignoring Amberpaw's apology.
"Yep. Of course, it might look less like an abandoned rogue camp if they wouldn't send half the clan away for no good reason every time they got bored." Lavaflow lashed her tail bitterly. She had a right to be angry, didn't she? After all, her brother was one of the cats that got sent out! Her little brother! The damn tom was barely an apprentice! And while he went of and had adventures, she was stuck back here! Completely unfair!
''They shouldn't just leave for any old quest,'' Amberpaw flicked her ear approvingly. ''You seem a lot like me,'' she added, stepping a mouse-length closer to Lavaflow. ''Maybe we can be friends.''
((Playing young cats is so fun!))
OOC: X3
IC: Lavaflow's mouth twitched into a slight smile. "Maybe." she conceded, stretching.
Lavaflow looked up and spotted Hawkclaw approaching with Dragonstar.
Lavaflow rushed over to them as they landed. "What happened? What basilisk?" she asked, sweeping her gaze back and forth between Hawkclaw and Dragonstar. Usually the headstrong she-cat wouldn't care about this sort of thing -at least, not much- but this was her clan leader. She couldn't just stand by and watch it unfold like she usually did.
Lavaflow nodded, more calmly now. "And what about Dragonstar?" she asked, her voice back to normal. "Was she poisoned?"
"Huh, and that's just what we need while so many cats are away, isn't it?" she mewed sarcastically, trying to hide her worry with scorn. "A weakened leader!" "oh well, at least it's been pretty peaceful here these last few days." she thought. "we ought to be okay, at least for a while."
Lavaflow padded shakily over to Hawkclaw and sat down next to him. She wasn't sure what she thought about Nightshade becoming leader. Usually, she would turn her back on him without a second thought, but Lightningpaw had been possessed in the same way, and if she couldn't trust him, her little bro, who could she trust?
"Are you here to yell at be for thinking Nightshade is the WRONG leader of the clan too?!"Hawkclaw growled,"If you are you are wasting you time, I'm not gonna change my mind!"
"No." Lavaflow mewed with a defensive edge to her voice. "I've been thinking the same thing." "at least, about nightshade..." she added guiltily in her head.
Lavaflow nodded. Very hesitantly, she rested her tail on Hawkclaw's back, then pulled it away again.
Lavaflow stared at him, surprised, then smiled back.
