Swiftclaw padded into Pack territory, carefully observing everything in hearing and sight. "Quiet out, isn't it?" he asked his companion, Sunpaw.
A short distance away and in a tree, Lightningfang sat, listening to the two. What? I heard Swiftclaw was dead with his new tribe? What gives? She continued listening as she moved, ready to drop into a good combat position.
OOC: D'oh! Sorry.

OCC: Its Sunpaw rmember? lol, not Wildpaw Sunpaw nodded slowly as she gazed around the area. Everything was so different here compared to ThunderClan territory back home. Sunpaw smiled through every thing that had happened. The pads of her paws were sore from the long journey they were on and her belly felt like an empty pit because of the hunger that nagged at her. Sunpaw looked up at their surroundings and purred as she prushed her pelt against Swiftclaw's in comfort.
"So this is the Pack territory eh?" She asked as she scented the air to a scent of prey. But that wasnt what she scented first. Cat. Sunpaw's fur bristled as she stopped walking and let a quiet growl escape her throat. "Swiftclaw, " she said as she flexed her claws into the ground beneath her. "I sent another cat..." she said as her green eyes scanned the clearing quickly before moving over to Swiftclaw and stading beside him with pelts brushing. |

Swiftclaw also took a scent, then snorted in surprise. "Well, well, well... Lightningfang! How's it going?"
Lightning jumped down and padded up to him. "Hello, Swift. I see you finally caught a mate. Little young, isn't she? About apprentice age."
Swift twitched an ear. "Still single, miss?"

Sunpawfelt embarassment twinge her pelt. She let her fur lye flat, seeing that Swiftclaw knew tgis cat...apparently Lightiningfang. Sunpaw took a step back and looked at Lightiningfang. Her eyes scanned the she-cat as she felt nervousness over come her. She had never met a cat outside of the clans before so she was excited to see the way that the Pack lives. Sunpaw dipped her head kindly to Lightiningfang. "Hello. Im Sunpaw...of Thunderclan."she said ondering if she shouild have said that. Her green eyes shone with pride as she realized how lucky she was to be able to come with Swiftclaw on his journey. But at the same time she felt confused. Was she really Swiftclaw's mate? Everyone seemed to think that but Sunpaw wasnt so sure. It was true that she did have deep feelings for him but she wasnt sure if she was ready to devote herself to him as a mate yet. Sunpaw shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts as she realized that this was the worst time to worry about that. Right now she should just be focused on warning the Tribe. Which was what she would do.

Lightningfang laughed once. "Is that so? A Thunderclan apprentice? Well! Moving on up, aren't you?"
Another cat padded out of the forest. "Swift! It's been ages! Heard you were dead!"
"Whitestripe. Remarkably friendly today." Swift remarked.
"Hey. I'm insulted. You think I'm that way still? People grow. Buhsides, I moved out here to get away from my past. The very past you left behind."
"Indeed. Look, where's the rest of your Pack? There's something I have to tell everybody."
"Aw, come on. We've gotta have a meal first, talk a little. And hello miss!" Whitestripe padded up to Sunpaw, dipping his head and touching his nose to her paw.

Sunpaw felt her ears burning with embarassment as she hoped that the other cats couldnt sence it. Sunpaw smiled warmly to Whitestripe and dipped her head to him as she did with Lightiningfang. Sunpaw sat down and wrapped her tail around her white paws. "Hello Whitestripe." she mewed being as polite as possible. She didnt want to seem like some crow-food eating cat to these new cats, after all, what if they didnt accept her for being a Caln cat? But that didnt seem like a big problem since they were acting so kind to her and Swiftclaw anyways. Sunpaw smiled again happy to feel relief wash over her. Suddenly she felt the cool wind brush through her orange pelt and carry the sent of mouse with it. Sunpaw's belly growled as she licked her lips and turned towards Swiftclaw. "Can we stop to eat? Then you can catch up with your friends too." she suggested kindly, desperately wanting to dig into a plump piece of prey.

"You see, even the lady says wait, eat. Why are you always so obsessed with business?" Whitestripe asked.
Lightningfang laughed longer this time. "Oh, you just summed him up in one phrase. You caught yourself a keeper, little lady!"
Swiftclaw shrugged. "All right, food first then."
"And so obliging too, you forget. Honestly, Lite, you do not do our friend justice," Whitestripe playfully chided his associate.
Lightning rolled her eyes at his pet name for her. "Perhaps I do, Stripe."

Sunpaw smiled and laughed. These Tribe cats seemed so kind and open-hearted. Sunpaw smiled again and felt realief wash over her. She was glad that she made the right decision to come with Swiftclaw on this incredable journey. Sunpaw nodded to Whitestripe and looked over to Swiftclaw. She knew that he needed to warn them as soon as possible but she also wanted to find out more about his past. Like why he left the tribe in the first place. Sunpaw grinned. "So is the Tribe like a Clan?" she asked trying to stir up a conversation. Hunger made her mind clouded as she looked into the grass wondering when they'd go hunting.

Swift sighed. "It was a lot closer. We waited till we all agreed to do something before a decision was made. We were really happy. Then, the twolegs moved in, and started rounding us up. I was the only one to survive, and I headed deep into their territory. Where I met Whitestripe's father and his Pack."
Whitestripe hissed in memory. "It was cat-eat-cat there. I did some things I'm not proud of. Several times I had to go see Swift for healing; he's quite the healer with stuff from the Twoleg Place!"
Swift rolled his eyes. "I had to improvise a lot. You have no idea how much of that was made up."
Lightning cut in. "Who cares? It worked. But Swift didn't like seeing so much violence between cats. So he left for the forest. A little while after that, Stripe's dad bought it. The fallout would have been nasty, so we followed Swift's example and got the crap out of Dodge."

Sunpaw tilted her head to the side as Swiftclaw and Whitestripe told the story. "Wow." Sunpaw mewed. "That must have been really hard." she said as she imagined how hard would have been. Sunpaw flicked Swiftclaw's ear with her tail and looked at him. "So is that how you ended up finding Thunderclan and the other Clans?" she asked him, wanting to get the story straight. Sunpaw let out a little mrow of laughter. "And I didnt know that you were part medicine-cat!" she purred as she tried to imagine him working with all the herbs and injured cats.
