Lightning smiled weakly at Sammy and swallowed the bitter herbs. She made a sour face like a little kit. "Blegh." She mewed. Sticking out her tongue. She waited a few moments and then carefully, and slowly dig her about into a mouse. The sweet juiceness covered her tongue and she savorwd it. After finishing her mouse, she felt better and started grooming herself.

Sammy struggled to keep the laughter in when Lightning made the sour face. He hadn't been prepared for it. He had tasted bitter herbs before, but those were for colds he occasionally suffered, and they weren't big doses. He managed to keep a straight face for a while before smiling and turning his back. He pinned his ears, attempting to keep the laughter in, struggling for a bit. Once he had it controlled, he whipped back around and sat near the other two.
"If you weren't hurt so badly, I would be laughing." he mewed, a gleam of laughter in his eyes before he shut it off and put up his walls again. "But you're hurt so I won't." he said flatly.

"Ha. Thanks." Lightning half mewed, half laughed. "They're really bitter, okay!" She licked her side carefully, ridding her fur of drying blood. "Be back, ok?" Lightning news, leaving in search of water. She limped through the forest it was new leaf, and flowers bloomed everywhere. She listened for sounds of running water, but heard nothing. She eventually stumbled upon a water puddle. She lapped up lots of water, filling the throb in her head. Lightning, now feeling better, found her way back to Sammy, Cassibar, and Windy.

(So let me get this right or correct me if I'm wrong, Sammy likes Lightning but Lightning likes Cassibar and Cassibar is kind of oblivious/impressed with Windy and Windy likes ????? )

I'm planning on having Lightning like Cassibar, but she's won over pretty easy, so, it could change.))

Windy kept silent most of the time, keeping to herself in a little corner by a large tree and yawning. She gave a small smile when Lightning swallowed the herbs, but then decided to take care of herself for a little bit. "I'm going hunting if anyone wants to come with me." She announced before leaving again and hesitating.

"I'll go. If we must stay together for much longer, I want to know you cats before we leave. I don't much like staying with cats I can't trust." he said, padding over to Windy. "I apologize for my loss of anger control. It isn't like me to do that." he murmured, his eyes set on the path in front of them.

"Nope, I'm good. You guys have a good time." Lightning called after them. She stood up and stretched carefully. Walking past Cassibar she said "I'll be back." She strolled towards her tree stump house. Sniffing the air, she smelled her small herb store and fur. Man, I should really clean up in here. She scraped most of the fur into a pile and pushed it outside. On a small indent in the wood, lay a small assortment of herbs, a tuft of fur, and a shedded claw. Some cats might think keeping a gray tuft of fur and a shredded claw, but it wasn't even Lightning's own fur. She spent a small section of her day honoring her dead brother, who died protecting her from a fox. Lightning sat down in front of the fur and bowed her head. "I got in a fight today Sky. I hope you're proud that I didn't die, seven though I would be with you. I hope you're proud that I was protecting our territory. I love you." Lightning murmured emotionally, her eyes filling with tears. She sniffed, stepped back, and walked out of the tree stump.

- - - oc: "It's fine. I get angry more easily anyways, so.. Whatever. And yeah, I also understand about the trust part, it makes everything more awkward." Windy agreed with a little shrug, her tone indifferent as she turned around. "You want to come? It'll help if there's another cat on the hunt with me In case something comes my way and I miss it." She offered, giving a little stretch and looking to the deep forest beyond. It must be teeming with prey... It would be a waste to let some of it go when we need food. Windy felt her stomach give a little growl and she took a deep breath. How good something to eat would taste...

"Let's get moving," Sammy mrowed, trotting into the forest calmly. His mood changed slightly. He was far more calm than on edge. His ears perked forward with curiosity. He had never stayed in this part of the forest for long, so it was new to him for the most part.

Cassibar wanted to hunt. He still felt the instinct to whenever a mouse or similarly small thing scuttled about. Since his declawing he'd only been successful once on a particularly fat and slow rat he held down with his paws well enough o bite it's neck swiftly. That was a good meal. Better than he'd had in a long time. Aside from that he'd relied on sticking close to a twoleg's nest or their rubbish bins to hound for scraps. But out here was farther away from the twolegs. He wanted to find his clan again, but he doubted they'd recognize him or accept him back. He sighed miserably.

"Alright." Windy replied with a nod, following him and immediately sniffing the air. She filtered each scent from the other, catching a waft of squirrel along the breeze and letting a little smile slip onto her mouth. I'm downwind of it, that's good. She thought momentarily before dropping into a crouch, tucking her hind legs in. Narrowing her eyes, Windy stalked the scent on swift paws and felt that she was getting closer. A flash of gray fur caught her eye behind a tree and she quickened her pace, arriving at the spot and turning around to see a surprised squirrel with wide eyes nibbling on a squirrel. "Yes!" She whispered before pouncing on it and giving it a quick bite to he neck.

Sammy stopped dead in his tracks and waited silently for Windy to return. His thoughts tracked back to that morning, when everything was simple and he hadn't met the others. Now, he felt a need to stay with them. He didn't know what was pulling him to staying with the other three, but he didn't want to in some ways. However, his want to stay was greater than the want to leave, and he was trying to piece together what was all happening. Maybe,it was his natural need to want to be with other cats, or something different.

Windy padded back triumphantly, the squirrel dangling from her jaws. There was also a small shrew that she had caught afterwards, but if was barely skin on bones. She dropped her catch in front of Sammy happily with gleaming blue eyes. "That worked out pretty well, I guess. More food for everyone! I'm glad. Anyways, I'll keep on looking for more while you hunt." She announced before turning around to try and see if there were any more rustling sounds or smells.

Sammy smirked and turned. Silence, at the moment, was his best friend as he stalked an innocent, unknowing mouse. His paws became silent and pelt was hidden among the natural colors of the forest. He checked the mouse's position once, then shut his eyes and perked his ears in the mouse's direction. The small tom held his breath as he crept closer, occasionally laying himself on the ground to remain undetected. His eyes were still closed. He leaped forward, and caught the mouse. He opened his eyes and casually walked back to where Windy had left the squirrel and shrew, dropped the prey, buried it, and padded after Windy, ears flicked back and alert to his surroundings.

Lightning sighed and pawed at the lush grass at her feet. Suddenly, she ran, (as well as she could) straight towards a tree. Right before she crashed into it, she surged upwards into its branches. She hopped from branch to branch, getting higher and higher. When she was at a spot with a little opening, to watch the clearing, she stopped. Lightning sat down and relaxed, away from the sun high sun. She pokes her head through the leaves. "Up here... wait. I don't even know your name. What's your name?" Lightning called from the tree down to Cassibar.

"Nice job." Windy replied with a curt nod, looking around. "There doesn't seem to be anything else around, unfortunately. I suppose this'll be good for now unless you've picked up something." She added, her gaze sweeping the forest that it could cover after her nose didn't pick up anything particularly fresh. |

"Shall we return then?" He asked, sitting down and giving a lick to his paw before dragging it over his ear. He stood and shook his fur out before getting up and padding back to the spot where he buried the prey and he unburied it.

"Yes, I suppose so." Windy answered coldly, giving a slight tip of her head before picking up the small amount of prey she had caught and turning around to head back to the clearing.

Sammy's straight face was all anybody needed to tell that he didn't care what was happening at the moment. He lifted his head a little and stared at Windy. "What is your name?" He asked flatly.

"Oh, I didn't tell you yet? It's Windy." Windy replied before continuing to trot on to the clearing and eventually seeing Lightning in view with the other tom too. Parting her jaws in a slight yawn, she ignored the ache in her injured tail and dropped the prey. |

Ish." He meowed, brushing past her and grabbing a mouse from the pile and eating slowly. Note to self, he thought, eat more than bird eggs for breakfast. He got up and padded over to grab another mouse. His hunger ate away at him and was soon relieved when he ate the second mouse. |

"Yeah, I can tell." Windy chuckled drily before picking up the shrew she had caught and finishing it in a few ravenous bites. Even though it didn't satisfy her appetite, it was surely enough for now. In times like these, I eat what I need to. Sitting down and blinking a bit, she pawed at the ground and eventually became lost in thought.

Sammy sniffed a little patch of grass by a bush. He made it a little more comfortable and he lay down and closed his eyes, relaxing himself a little bit. "How did you end up here?" He asked Windy, one of his eyes half open.

Windy gave a little shrug. "Not really sure. I've been prowling around the area for moons now and know the way around pretty well, but before that? I can't remember much. This section of the forest is where I've always been. Anyways, sorry for acting so aggressive. You three are the first cats I've met since some kittypets 8 moons ago. I just wanted to defend my territory.. But enough about that. Where do you come from?"

"You did what was necessary to defend yourself. I understand that. I've been here and there... I was only passing through here when I found you guys. I was travelling to a two-leg place. They've got plenty of food there." he murmured, closing his eyes and stretching his body out. "Never really liked roaming around much."
