The Team

[Kasumi]

Kestrel looked down on Gorge and the new she-cat as they made their way on the waterfall. He laughed as the she-cat took her time on the path. His tail flicked as he jumped from a nearby rock. "Going on a hunting patrol Gorge?" he asked the large tom giving a slight glance at the new cat.

[Seth]

Silverpool's hackles raised slowly. This dream was very odd. It was almost to realistic. The large male was very new to her and not exactly trust worthy just yet. She forced her fur back down and looked at the new cat waiting for Gorge's answer. She looked at him with curious eyes, then turned back to the new male. She dipped her head slightly in greeting.

[| Crowstar |]

Gorge looked over at Kestral and cuffed the tom over the ears with a well armed paw. "Silverpool, this is Kestral." He mewed, seeing her unease. He turned back to the other tom and flicked his tail. "Are you going to come?" He asked seriously, he was worried. Some eagles had just taken flight not too long ago and they were new, they would attack the cats. Simple as that. He knew they would. Himself, Leaf and Wave were lucky enough to catch one before it killed them.

[Seth]

Silverpool smiled at Kestrel in greeting. Then inched back, eager to see the rest of Gorge's territory. Her light gaze darkened for a moment. Gingerclaw loved exploring new territories. It made Silverpool angry that everything she did had to evolve around him. She shoved him out of her mind angrily. Then turned back to the two cats with a softer stare.

[Kasumi]

Kestrel nodded a greeting towards the she-cat named Silverpool. The ruddy brown tom looked towards where the cave was hidden behind the waterfall. "Depends, where are Wave and Leaf?" he asked.

[Seth]

"Sleeping." Silverpool said softly. It wasn't really her question to answer, but she was eager and curious. She flicked her tail with happiness and grinned slightly. How would she do? She loved challenging herself, but would an eagle be to much? Some how she felt very safe with the tribe, she didn't need to worry. Even if an eagle was to much, she felt that these cats would protect her. Once again she remembered that she was dreaming. 'Oh! Oh right, I don't need to worry. I can't die in a dream.' This was an awefully long dream, but she was glad. For this was a good dream.

Boulder slowly moved through the cliffs, his eyes on the gorge to the side as the pebbles skipped away as his paws hit the floor. He noticed the others and padded up next to them, offering a head bow in greeting.

[Seth]

Silverpool couldn't take anymore cats. All males. She backed up, one paw behind the other. So many new scents. So many new cats. She turned her head to one side and closed her eyes, trying to clear her mind of the unfamiliar eroma. SHe looked at Gorge with hesitation. 'I got in to deep.' she thought. 'I'm not dreaming.' She shrugged it off. She would prove the clans that she could cope with what ever life threw at her. She padded foreward pelts brushing with Gorge. She nodded to the new male. "Silverpool." She introduced herself. Then looked to Kestrel with an expecting glance, what was his answer depending on? Would he come or not? Silverpool looked up at Gorge, waiting for his next move.

The lion cub like appearance he held (spots over a large yet skinny tawny body with a brown tipped tail) seemed to shimmer in the haze, as Boulder eyed Silverpool. And yet, he said nothing. He was a bit more untrusting of strangers then others, and so he merely turned his head the other way. Apparantly the others welcomed her, and so would he, but that was about as far as he would go until they got to know each other better. And besides, she smelled weird. Like forest cats. Like from those clans in the wooded realm, and it was rather odd to him.

[| Crowstar |]

Gorge watched all the cats come in at once, he tightened his muscles but stayed silent. He looked down at Silverpool as she let her pelt brush his, he flinched away, his muscles tightened when she had touched him. He lowered his head, he had never had affection from a female and his past was not a good one. He looked at Bolder, Kestral and then back at Silverpool. Gorge felt his muscles tense and he padded a ways away, he didn't want to offend them... But he was a loner, and was off better with one or two cats then three or four. He was not longer within ear shot and he sat down slowly, curling his tail over his paws.

Wave lifted her beautifully formed head with a sense of awkwardness in the air, she twitched her tail and slid out of the cave to see Silverpool with Bolder and Kestral. She padded over. "Greetings," She purred, sitting down and looking at them. "Where is Gorge? He wasn't in his sleeping hollow..."

Leaf sighed and looked around, both Wave and Gorge were gone. She looked to where Silverpool had slept and she was also gone, her ears twitched in unease as she padded out of the cave. Leaf slid easily through the waterfall and loped over to the others. She dipped her head and sat down, looking from cat to cat. She noticed Wave looking out towards a tree and glanced over. Gorge. One ear twitched and Leaf loped off towards a distant tree with the form of Gorge over it. She sat down next to him and pushed her nose to his fur. "What's wrong brother?"

[X. Acidstar .X]

All of the cats had dispersed, and it left Boulder alone to think. He sat down, wrapping his long tail around his paws to stare out into the abyss, lost in thought and his ears swiveling with the sounds.

[| Crowstar |]

Wave looked from Bolder, to Silverpool, then to Kestral, her long multi-colored tail twitched slightly. "Erm... Anyone up for a hunt?" she asked, looking over her shoulder. Gorge and Leaf were making their way back over.

Gorge padded back up a young hare caught in his jaws, it was his excuse for leaving. He tail twitched and he looked at Wave, the Kestral, Leaf, Bolder and back to Silverpool. "Yes." He muttered through his kill.

Leaf nodded and sat down. "If we are all going, we should split into three groups." She offered up the suggestion hesitantly, her ears flicking back and forth. "It's faster and we could catch more, rather than have three large cats stomping around and scaring all the caught-prey."

[X. Acidstar .X]

Boulder nodded his head in acknowledgment of the talk, agreeing silently with them, and then nodding once more to the suggestioin of them all going and splitting up into teams. "Sounds agood to me, perhaps we will gain more, ah, as they say, thattaway-" Boulder talked like how a foreign from say Russia or France or Italy might speak after just transfering to America - all foregin and hard to understand.

[Seth]

Silverpool looked down. She new the hare was a but an excuse. She hadn't meant any unwanted affection, she simply came to close. She pushed the thought away and switched her gaze eagerly to Wave. "Who is in what group?" She asked with a tint of excitement in her eyes. She felt like an apprentice. Wanting to do what ever the warriors did. She wanted to learn, and find out if she could do everything they did. And though the incident before was infact an accident, she couldn't help but hoping she was in Gorge's group. Maybe it was just because she knew him the best.

[X. Acidstar .X]

Boulder straightened himself up, his long tail curling around his paws to keep them warm against the cold ground, "A cave-a-guard-a," he replied proudly, his long gaze holding the others in a friendly way. He knew Silverpool knew nothing of their clan, so indeed in a way she was like an apprentice, and he knew the clans from the woodland had ways different then ours, and until she knew what ranks were available and what she fit best in, she would have to learn the steps first, even though she wasn't pointing her questions towards him.
