Kyka exchanged glances with Xiu. They knew what was going on and they feared the worst. Their fake father found out where they went, and he was coming for them. The wounds were enough to tell. Just then, another loner stepped out from the undergrowth, as if he had owned the place. The new loner spoke out with a dark, icy voice, "Kyka, Xiu. Explain yourselves to the fact that you disobeyed my command to stay away from Thunderclan."
Kyka stood up for Xiu, who was always nervous around their fake father. "Leave us alone Tree! We know the truth!" Kyka unsheathed his claws, ready for a fight. Xiu stood back, not one to fight so often. Instead, he turned to flamepaw, hoping he would help too.

Xiu quietly whispered to Flamepaw, " That's Tree, the cat who pretended to be our father. He was going to use us against Thunderclan, the same clan who exiled him. He most likely attacked both of them because they were in his way...please protect us...he's had more combat experience than Kyka and I, and he'll beat us half to death if he takes us back..." Xiu was always terrified of Tree, but only because he was abusive to them when they weren't 'good enough' to him. Kyka was never the subject of his claws, shown by the scarless pelt he wore. Xiu's however, was scarred many a time, some hidden, some grotesquely visible. He didn't want to return to him.

Tree half-turned to Ivyfeather, his icy blue eyes gleaming with cold superiority. "Give up," he icily meowed. "Unless of course, you want to experience something closer to death." Kyka siezed the situation and immediately pounced at Tree, attempting to injure and possibly stumble him. Tree, unprepared for the attack, bit back a curse as he felt the wounds and stumbled backwards, towards Ivyfeather.

Tree turned to the Vice leader, as well as both Kyka and Xiu, hatred burning in his icy blue eyes. "You'd best watch your clan carefully, because I will be back!" He shouted as he turned and ran off. Xiu sighed with relief when their pseudo father had left and turned to the vice leader. "I'm sorry for bringing him here," he said apologetically as he looked at Kyka, who continued to stare where Tree had left. "I had no idea that he would cause this much trouble..." Will they accept us now? We nearly got two cats killed, theres no way they would want us...
Meanwhile Kyka ran over to the Vice leader, out of his angry funk. "Hi!" he said eagerly. "I'm Kyka, and this is Xiu. We were asking Snarltooth if we could join."

OOC: Also, sorry Rustyclaw for not seeing ur post, I just saw Arc's. sorry!; but to answer your question, Xiu is unlikely to say anything because he doesn't want to seem attention-grabby, but Kyka's ego will probably make him say it one way or another.

Tree cursed himself on the inside. He wasn't about to let his weapons to be returned back to thunderclan, even to be used against him. He noticed Raven, giving off that he had seen her too. "Are you going to that loner go, and stay by me?" Tree hated deceitful plans, he always preferred skill in battle over skill of tounge. He almost felt bad to fool one of his former clan mates, but they deserved it. No one abandons him and gets away with it.

He glared at Raven, then back at Midnightleaf. "You have more to deal with then me, so go ahead and defend your territory," he said with an unenthusiastic tone. Raven could see that he was using her to get away, but it was her choice whether or not she went along with it.

OOC: Ivyfeather, he's supposed to be a d***. I try to get insults with tree x3
IC: Xiu eyed the fresh kill. He knew it wasn't his place to ask, but he was hungry anyway. We'll have a chance later, he thought. All it'll take is the O.K. from any high positioned cat, and they were allowed to stay.

Instead, Xiu walked closer to Ivyfeather, looking over her wounds. "Will you be okay?" She seemed like a nice cat, when you were on her side, and Xiu was eager to make friends.

Xiu pawed his ear to calm himself down. Tree wasn't around anymore, so why was he so afraid? He was finally free of his childhood terror, he should be happy. "My name's Xiu, and Kyka's my brother. We're more of polar opposites though. How do you know Kyka?" Xiu guessed she, as well as Flamepaw, were the mediators for Kyka. Xiu wished he had as much luck making friends with strange cats, but he could never be the same as Kyka.

Kyka and Xiu simultaneously nodded, despite their polar opposites. Xiu nudged Kyka, asking, "Why didn't you introduce me?" Kyka responded, "I'd rather you meet her yourself then you asking me. Besides, you need to talk to others more often." While they spoke they slowly walked to the apprentice den, and when they got inside they took shelter next to flamepaw. Both Xiu and Kyka eagerly awaited for their ceremonies to take place, wondering what would take place soon afterward.

OOC:Meant this to be before timeskip

OOC: Bump. This seems to be a recurring theme in my threads :( O well. Nez, if you could? :P

Xiu had been up already, while Kyka was sleeping like usual. When he saw Ivyfeather, he quietly padded closer to her. "Sleep well? I'm sure those injuries are a pain," He meowed knowledgeably. He knew all too well of the feeling of getting clawed, especially by the same cat she was.

Rocky, an always curious, gray, kittypet kit with light gray spots, was wandering by the river, obviously lost and upset. His collar was slightly too big for him, and hung off of his neck loosely, the bell long since broken off. For a kittypet, his fur was oddly dirty, and he was thin. He looked around, as if expecting something to jump out at him at any moment.

Kyka woke up with a huge yawn, always sleeping late. Xiu had constantly told him that he should get up earlier, but he couldn't help himself. He was just always a late sleeper. When he stretched and left the apprentice den, he looked at Flamepaw, smiled, and immediately went over to him. "Hey, Flamepaw! Um...about our ceremonies, Xiu's and mine, when do you think we'll have it?" Kyka hoped Flamepaw knew more than he did. Without his friend's guidance, clan life seemed like a whole other world.

OOC: I'm also confused about the ceremony IRL. (Should any1 of High rank read this,) Should I message the leader, just talk to you and it'll be okay, or is there some other formality that I'm not aware of? I've only started rping for a couple of weeks on this, so its still a little strange to me x3.

The little Rocky squealed in fear, unaware of the warrior until now. "W-what's...Wiverclan?" He was just barely learning to speak, his learning traumatized by his owners' and mother's death, all in the same night. He was scared of the wild cat, remembering the tales his mother used to tell him.

OOC:God i hate school....I'll check tommorow morning for posts x3 night.

Xiu thought about what he should say for a moment. "Well," he began, "I've had insomnia from Tree's...beatings. Without him around, atleast I can fall asleep now." He decided to be honest, rather than lie to make the conversation less dark. Xiu hated to drive attention and sympathy towards himself, but it was true.

He turned to the new cat, but was afraid to speak up. Apparently this new cat didn't like kittypets or, whatever...Rocky dared a couple of words, "W-whats a....kittypet?" As he spoke, he started to shuffle to the safety of Discriminationheart's fur, since he was so friendly.

OOC: im trying to get ur attention towards raven, so that I can sneak away. Its sorta obvious to people like me(strategy nerds x3)

IC: Tree bit his lip anxiously and decided to wait.

Tree nodded in sudden agreement. He was surprised this loner stood up for him, but he didn't argue. He needed those stolen kits back. The less thunderclan heritage they knew, the better weapons they would make. Of course, only Tree knew who they really were.

Rocky shook his head. "Housefolk and mommy..." he started to trail off to avoid remembering that one night. "I don't have anyone anymore..." he started to retreat closer to Discriminationheart, about to cry.
