{ Ooh snazzy! Too bad I left my *wink wink* character in the castle.. I'll weave her in somehow  }
| Pebblesong | Drawbridge - Heath
Pebblesong stood near Thunderheart while he spoke, nodding as he finished. She glanced towards the big tree and made a mental note to avoid it. Her eyes then returned to the guard. The guard who is also a member of the Royal family, the thought popped into her head. She flicked her tail, tossing the thought to the side. After she dipped her head to him, she turned towards the wilderness and took a few steps away from the tom, parting her mouth to taste for prey.
Mouse. The scent wafted over her, putting her legs into motion as she began to follow the scent. Her ear flicked from Thunderheart towards the trail she was following, a slight indication to where she was headed.

(Hey guys! So we're kind of waiting on Bloodrose, but we can rp a little before they come.)
(And also, go for it Hawkclaw. Give me them drama posts.)
- - Flamewhisker
Flamewhisker lowered his head when he saw Pebblesong's signal, trying to pick up any scent that flowed his way. Unfortunately, one of the reasons he was a guard was that he wasn't great at sensing prey, so he really just ended up confused. He looked to Thunderheart to see if he understood the simple message. I hope she's not sensing danger. It would be a first real fight for me and... He wasn't sure he was ready to take on something. Long story short, he got distracted by his own little world again before he realized it could just be prey. Better just stay quiet, he guessed.

((Heya! We're still on the patrol--i made a post about it at the bottom of the last page  )) - - ThunderheartThunderheart caught Pebblesong's signal and lifted his ears. He lowered himself down a little and followed her from a distance, doing his best not to make any noise. He could faintly smell the mouse, too, but he knew better than to go after it himself; he was too clumsy as a hunter. In truth, the only reason he had become a guard was so that he could join the patrols without having to do any actual hunting. Sure, he had to fight off the occasional predator, but he preferred battling bigger targets instead of sprinting after a small rodents. - - StoneheartStoneheart lifted his head and narrowed his eyes, and a bit of his old clarity came into his expression. "I am perfectly well, Lighttail. I am just as strong in mind and body as I was at the start of my rule, and nothing has changed. So thank you for the offer, but I don't need your herbs." |

- - Lighttail
Lighttail flinched at his words with mixed feelings about his reaction whirling around within her. Okay sir. Look. CLEARLY you're not well, and you're not getting the medical help you need, but you're also strong enough to make an argument for your sanity, she thought. "Y-yes Your Majesty," she stuttered hating having to be so polite to this stubborn tom cat. "I just mean in case. I don't think you're any weaker than before, I just want to make sure you're okay." WHY ARE CATS SO STUBBORN ABOUT SHOVING HERBS DOWN THEIR GULLETS, she silently thought, maintaining a nervous smile.

Duskstorm smelled the mouse as well but kept his distance, not about to steal another cats prey. He slowly wandered off from the rest of the group- something normal for the Tom- smelling for his own prey.
He tensed when he scented- yes!- rabbit. Perfect.
He lowered himself to the ground, belly-fur brushing the ground as he slunk forwards.
Soon enough he saw the rabbit in sight, his pupils waxing wide as he focused solely on his prey, ignoring his surroundings now. A little closer... aim slightly to the left.

- - Thunderheart
Thunderheart realized that Duskstorm was separating from the group and flicked his tail to Flamewhisker, signaling him to follow; he wanted to be especially vigilant today in case the fox was still around.
- - Stoneheart
"As I said," Stoneheart asserted with a growl edging his voice, "I am perfectly well." He fell silent and looked off to the side, his tail waving side to side. At length, he sighed quietly and looked back at Hightail.
"But I know how you herbalists are. You won't leave me alone until I take this. Then fine. But don't tell anyone that you've imagined weakness in me." He stared at the leaf bundle and glanced over his shoulder. "Have my brother take these to the royal tower for me when he returns from patrol. And for ancestor's sake, be discreet about it." With that, the king turned around and trotted out of the garden, his stride much stronger than when he entered.

(okay sorry my wifi hates me apperently sorry. I'll change it so she's there)
Rosebriar parted her jaw looking for prey. She hoped no one was watching her because she was still very uncomfortable about her hunting skill. She would hate to have someone see her lose any prey. Her stomach growled she would have to make sure she caught plenty because she was hungry but she knew she couldn't eat until mealtime.

- - Lighttail
"Yes, Your Majesty," she mewed with a small bow of her head. I may have a chance to do some good for this pompous royal, Lighttail thought with a smile. She set the bundle aside and tended to her other herbs. I wonder why he's so worried about acknowledging that he's sad. YOU'RE HEALTH IS NOT A JOKE CAT. She shook her head while she watched him leave.

Duskstorm bunched up his shoulders, his body tense- then he burst from the undergrowth and landed on the back of the rabbit, hissing as it tried to kick him off. He sunk his fangs into its neck, and finally managed to kill it after the struggle. Proud, he straightened up and surveyed his surroundings, realising he'd wandered a little too far from the group. He hefted the rabbit up with his jaws and nervously skirted around Flamewhisker to try and get back to the group, still uncomfortable around other cats.

Aspenwhisker twitches her whiskers and turned to look at Thunderheart. "I smell a squirrel near by." She used her tail to motion to the near by roots of a tree.

((bless u all for surviving the confusion c' ) - - ThunderheartThunderheart nodded to Aspenwhisker, He lifted his head over the dry shrubs of the heath for a moment to scan the area. He thought he saw a glimpse of movement in the distance, but because it was downwind he couldn't catch its scent. He shrugged and turned away from it. Probably just a rodent. - - StoneheartStoneheart padded back into the grand hall. He scanned the room, looking at the old, torn tapestries, decorated with images that had no meaning to him. He walked along the walls and hopped onto what remained of an old chair, curling his tail around his feet for a moment as he sat down and observed his domain. He thought about what Lighttail had said, and he realized for the first time the new atmosphere in the castle. Were cats really taking notice of his state? Had he been neglectful lately? Was he not allowed to mourn without everyone thinking he was too weak to rule? I suppose I gave up my right to show emotion when I became the King, he mused. |

(Here! Thanks for being patient with our absence. ^^)
- - Flamewhisker
Flamweshisker was just about to go get Duskstorm when he scurried by. Okay, well... job well done, he thought with some curiosity when he thought about how fast he ran by. He gave him a flick of his ear and a somewhat confused look before seeing his prey and offering a congratulatory head nod on a good catch. I hope these cats don't think they can just leave, he thought with some worry. How was he coming across to these cats?
- - Tawnyclaw
Tawnyclaw heard the faint rumble of Rosebriar's stomach and shifted her gaze onto the cat. She heard a small snap in the near distance, and picked up the appetizing scent of... a rabbit perhaps? She turned to Rosebriar with a stern expression and flicked her tail to indicate that she wanted the she-cat to follow. She began to pad silently in the direction of a large bush where she was zeroing in on the scent.

Duskstorm nervously glanced at Flamewhisker as he nodded at him, before sliding back into the group of hunters and quietly burying his catch. He lifted his head to scent the air for more prey, watching to see how the other Hunters were doing. |

Cute!!!)
Aspenwhisker crouches down and slowly moves forward. She waits a few moments before leaping forward landing on the squirrel. She bites it's neck and walks back to Thunderheart.

((Ooh I love that drawing bloodrose!! The lineart is great!))
Thunderheart
Thunderheart flicked his tail at Aspenwhisker as a congratulatory signal. Then he stopped and snapped his head back to where he had seen movement before. His body tensed. Something was definitely there; something with orange fur. At first he thought it was Flamewhisker, then he realized it was much too big.
"Hey," he whispered harshly, "There's something out there!"
The Fox
The fox had been drawn to the castle by the smell of cats. It kept its head low to the ground, but it knew it was getting close. It's tail waved over the top of the heath.
Stoneheart
After a while, Stoneheart jumped down and started to make his was back to the royal tower.

Duskstorm tensed and raised his head at Thunderheart's warning, his fur slowly standing on end as he smelt danger. Ears flattening against his head, he arched his back slightly and got ready to either run, or fight; whichever would be the most necessary. Was that a fox he could now smell? His heart raced in his chest- this could end badly. |

Aspenwhisker was confused for a moment before she smelled the fox. She takes a small step back and glances over at Thunderheart.

- - Tawnyclaw
As the tail came out from the top of the bushes, Tawnyclaw felt herself freeze momentarily, her heart racing. Quickly she regained her senses and darted away, the wind whistling in her ears. She crouched down and braced for the animal to come out and fight rather than hiding in the bushes like a coward.
- - Flamewhisker
Flamewhisker noticed everyone readying themselves and tried to put on a serious face. Today would be the day he proved himself to the castle that he was an asset in their society. Maybe he would finally be able to have a good anecdote as well, which made him grin the slightest bit.

((I think it should be two foxes instead of one because foxes aren't really that big and it wouldn't stand much of a chance alone against so many cats lol))
The Foxes
The foxes lifted their heads and sniffed at the air. Their ears tensed, and they realized the cats were close--in their new territory. They split up and began circling in on the patrol.
Thunderheart
"It's a fox!" Thunderheart shouted as he caught a glimpse of an orange tail. "Lead it away from the castle, then we'll fight it off!"

Duskstorm said, leaping on the role as decoy; although he avoided the other cats he was young and strong, and knew he wouldn't exactly be missed by them if he was killed. He shot straight into the underbrush, tail-fur standing on end as he landed directly in front of one of the foxes, before immediately spinning back around and sprinting the way he'd came. He began to lead it away from the castle, moving as fast as his paws could possibly carry him. |

(Hi!)
Flamewhisker saw Duskstorm run past him and attack the fox, and felt himself take off after him. He unsheathed his claws and made a swipe for the creature's face, processing all at once how big they were. But no matter their size, it was his duty to protect the hunters.
