Ethre nodded and glanced worriedly at Marblepaw. She sighed and sat down in the grass, shivering and hoping her pelt would dry soon. She almost felt bad for her father, and wondered what could have happened to him. She hadn't though anyone could have done that to her seemingly invincible leader.

Marblepaw's ears moved to the new cats next to her. "Sooo, why did you want to come here? You don't seem to interested in Newpaw, and we are your enemy clan, It doesn't make sence." she wondered "And I think Ethre is the only one who wanted to get away, you were happy in Ravenclan, weren't you Mudd?" The young cat's voice was hollow and stretched. Marblepaw let herself go limp and slipped onto the floor. Cinnamon would be so mad at her, she needed to think of a good excuse.

Newpaw raced off into the forest. He cicled around the hill and slid to a stop. A giant tree was in the side of the hill. A flood must have washed out the mud underneith and in the roots. Cinnamon must have come along and pushed all of the midsized roots to the side and pulled off all of the small ones. The garden on the inside was glimmering with dew and a mixture of sunlight, starlight and moonlight made the herb garden seem like the garden of eden! Newpaw padded through the root entrance and saw the the hill was actually a great crater. A shimmering pond with an island in the middle was in the center of the garden. big rocks covered the graves of the cats who had died. The newest on was his fathers. Newpaw quickly made a small cave in the side of the crater and covered the bottom with dry soft moss. Before he could catch his breath he was off again and ran back to his friends. "Hurry! There isn't much time left!" was all he could manage to pant.

"Ravenstar is insane," Mudd meowed quietly. "And besides him, its just our mother and two toms who make up the clan. I think one of them is just as bad as Ravenstar too. So why would we want to stay in UccelloClan?" Mudd paused. "Also, without Ethre and I need each other. Without her, what can I do? I am blind. And without me, she cannot communicate."
Ethre wasn't really paying too much attention to the conversation, and was the first to notice Newpaw running towards them. She was on her paws again, ready to follow when he lead. She did wonder though, what they were racing against. No one was pursuing them...Right?"

As soon Ethre got on her feet Marblepaw managed to scramble to her painful paws and start walking in the direction Newpaw came from. "Have you come up with any excuses for Veilstar if we don't get back inside in time?" She called up to Newpaw. H shook his head."No clue."he growled. -------------------------------- Marblepaw swallowed some of the water from the pond to get rid of the taste of herbs. Mudd and Ethre had been covered from tail to nose with every herb in the garden, been given a whole thyme plant to munch on with the phesant that Newpaw had brought back from his hunting trip, and been given four poppy seeds each. "Time to go home and face our doom Newpaw!" she called from the tree roots. --------------------------------------------------- "Just a sec!" Newpaw wispered back. He had just gotton Ethre to sleep. He looked over to Mudd's blue eyes."Good luck for whatever happens, I'll come by when ever I can. Good night Mudd" his whispered "Good night Ethre." Newpaw trotted over to Marblepaw and the two hurried back to camp. Newpaw scurried into the apprentence den and Marblepaw curled up in the cave. Just in time!

ooc: Thats kinda powerplaying, but *shrug*.
bic:
Mudd listened to the cats go and sleepily looked over to her slumbering sister, though she could not see her. The air here was so fresh and pure, and she knew that it was a beautiful place.
She closed her eyes and felt sleep begin to grip her mind...

Rayne slid one of her eyes open as she herd someone moving in the cave. As her eyes refocused and adusted she could smell blood, water, mud, and ... her clan! Then she could she Marblepaw wincing and swearing under her breath as she tried to lay down. "What were you doing?" Rayne yawned quietly. Marblepaw's head snapped up and she relaxed a little when she saw that it was only Rayne. "I..a.. just took a walk,...sleep walking! I was sleep walking and I walked into the river." the wet cat hissed softly. "Um.. goodnight Rayne!" The cure tyro watched as the cat curled up at went to sleep. Hmmmm Rayne thought. She turned over in the soft blanket and snuggled in next to Kira. It was so nice to sleep with someone. Rayne remebered to cold nights in Ravenclan when she had to sleep alone in a nest of wet leaves. The rest of the night,she dreamed of Marblepaw sleepwalking through fox dens and wolf caves.

Veilstar awoke the next morning with a purpose. She wasn't quite sure what it was at first, but then remember. UccelloClan... she mentally hissed, licking down her pelt quickly and then stalking out of her den to announce her findings to the whole clan.
"May all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here for a clan meeting!" he yowled, anger ringing in her tone.
When she was satisfied with the number of cats attending, she began.
"Last night I was by the river and I scented UccelloClan. It was much too strong for my liking, and it is my belief that they are up to no good! You can't trust those street-rats! From now on we are going to have twice the number of patrols than usual." Her eyes were narrow slits. "They cannot be tolerated. If you see anything suspicious, report it back to me immediately."
Mist was frightened by her leader's words and wondered at her logic. This is crazy. She's paranoid. With a sigh, the deputy realized a dawn patrol had better be organized.

After hearing Veilstar's order, Marblepaw and Newpaw looked at each other with worried glances. "We have to cover up last nights scents." wispered Newpaw. "YOU have to cover them up! My paws are infected or somting now and I can't go anywhere now." Marblpaw hissed. She then turned and wrigled with suprprising skill and speed back to in front of the cave.(XD!!!) --------------------------------------------------------------- Rayne laughed as Marblepaw layed on her side next to her in the sun. "I'll go get Cinnamon up out of bed if you want. Although she might not belive you about the "sleep-walking!" snickered the Curer tyro.

Skyrush hissed at Veilstar's words. This was crazy! Why did they even let the Insiders into their forest? ------------------------------------ Stagears was very frustrated. The leader talked too fast for him to understand. "Dragon? What did leader cat say? She-cat say words too fast! No time to try to watch mouth!" Dragontooth chuckled. He stood in front of his deaf brother and clearly mouthed the words "Grumpy leader went swimming by river and smelled bad clan. She wants all of us to play hide and seek with them and if we win, we get to be grumpy to bad clan." After memorising all of the words that Stagears knew and could understand, Dragontooth could basicly tell his brother anything in a way that he could understand. Foxwit then sat in front of Stagears and added, "Grumpy leader is starting to be more grumpy, she want us to play hide and seek with bad clan all day, forever!" Stagears closed his eyes as he put the words together. "Hide and seeking is fun if we win! We go now to leader and tell her we want to play all day!" The tree of them got up and walked over to Veistar. Stagears loudly meowed "Leader!, Fox, Dragon, and Stag want to play the hide and seek all day." Dragontooth and Foxwit just looked at each other and tried not to laugh as they imagined what might going through Veilstar's head as she heard Syagears. (XD)

ooc: Skyrush is actually my character, Froscogo. Hide and seek? How is that related to patrolling?
bic:
Veilstar stared confusedly down at Stagears. "What do you mean? Hide and seek?" Was Stagears all there?

ooc- O.O I is soo sorry. bic-Dragontooth and Foxwit burst out laughing and were near crying when they got back under control. Dragontooth tried to sound serious but it was truly difficult when Foxwit kept sickering as he explained their laughter to Stagears. "Hee.. Umm..Stagears never learned the word patrol, but he knows that this is warrior like hide and seek.Hee Haa, I'm sorry you had to see us laugh like that. We just ment that the three of us would be happy to be a hard working patrol." Dragontooth clamped his mouth shut as he continued to lagh on the inside. Stagears chuckled quietly as Foxwit finally succeded in telly him the joke.

ooc: Its fine. ^^ I still don't get what a patrol has in common with hide and seek. bic:
Veilstar growled, not amused by their antics. "Fine," she rumbled. "Then get out there right now."
She was not in a good mood, in fact, she was furious. Why, though? Veilstar ignored the three cats and laid down on her perch, watching the others her eyes followed Skyrush as he casually padded away from the others and left camp. The leader narrowed her eyes, but let it pass.
UccelloClan! Skyrush was having trouble maintaining a normal gait as he padded into the forest, heading for the river. When he was just close enough that he could hear the water, he stopped and began to hunt. Dragontooth and his brothers' patrol would pass by soon, and then he would have a good opportunity to cross the border. Between that patrol and the next, his scent would weaken enough to go unnoticed, especially if he was discreet about his passage.

ooc- hmmmm Skyrush is up to something. bic- Dragontooth, Foxwit, and Stagears loped through the bramble passage and off into the forest. They ran for a while when Stagears stopped. He tilted his head back and forth as he scented the still air around him. "I smell white kitty, and kitty with white paws, and a kitty with blood, and another kitty. I think the four kitties went swimming in the river then came hear to our home." After thinking for a while Stagears continued. "They just little kitties, the two new ones are no danger, we should leave them be and not tell grumpy leader." Foxwit sat down and licked his tail. "What were Newpaw and Marblepaw doing with two Ravenclan apprentences? If one was injured, they would try to help right?" Drgontooth sighed and muttered. "O.j. would have always offered his help to any creature in need, Newpaw is his son, he would always do what his father did." Stagears growled "I am a warrior of O.j. clan! Grumpy leader need not know of poor little kitties. We take care of smell and tell leader that wind made home smell bad." Dragontooth and Foxwit look at each other. "That is a pretty good idea, we have to also make sure that Veilstar doesn't send out any more patrols until we take care of the scent." meowed Foxwit. Dragontooth got up and started to run back to the camp. "I'll take care of Veilstar, you two take care of the scent." he called over his shoulder as he raced away.
