Aspen sank deeper into the shadows, trying to disappear.

Ember woke up from the dullness of the carpet. Slowly blinking open her eyes, she sat up, stretching each of her legs in turn before getting up finally and sniffing the stale air. Thankfully, as she glanced upon the bed next to her, no cats were sleeping on it. No sick cats. She thought before padding out of the ajar door and entered the main part of camp. Seeing as the prey pile was growing tinier by the minute, Ember didn't dare taking a large portion. She grabbed a scrawny mouse and then sat down in the corner, nibbling on the tiny thing without any hunger whatsoever.
Lukanth awoke from his slumber on the carpet in the main part of camp, yawning carefully and then weaving in and out of other sleeping bodies. He took a glance to the fresh-kill pile and then snorted, not taking anything from the pile. There are far more cats hungrier than me. He decided, and then sat down, starting to groom himself quietly.

Stone yawned, stretching as he awoke. The muscular gray tom sat up, taking a glance at the cats around him. As he scanned the area, he noticed that the prey pile was growing quite small. Looks like I'll have to send out a hunting patrol when enough cats are awake, he thought to himself.

Snow looked at Loki as he climbed up onto the couch to visit his mate, Sun. She felt a slight pang of envy, as she wished that she could have a mate as well. Her dream was to someday raise a litter of kits. Hopefully I can find a mate someday, the mute she-cat thought, looking down at her paws.
-
Bramble blinked her eyes open and took a glance around her. Some of her denmates were still asleep, though others were already awake. The brown hunter carefully got to her paws and crept around her sleeping denmates. As soon as she was out of the mass of cats, she sat down next to the prey pile and started grooming herself.

Azalea stretched her toes, her spine arching as she rose from her sleep. The white she-cats blue eyes flickered around the busying twoleg house, the silence in her ears slicing through the air like a pair of sharp claws.
She heard only a slight hum- one of the only acknowledgments of sound for her.
The female turned to look beside her, her brother curled tightly in a ball as he slept. Oxalis' tail flicked his nose as he dreamed, and Azalea nudged his broad dark tabby shoulders lightly.
"Hhm?" Oxalis groaned, his green eyes peeling open.
Azalea peered at her brother, her shoulders hunched as she leaned over him.
"Mo-nin," Azalea croaked perkily, angling her ears forward. Even her own voice seemed to be lost to her, the only clear sound being the voice of her brother.
Oxalis blinked. "Good morning too you too, Azalea," her brother replied tiredly. The brown tabby slowly rose to his paws, glancing around as cats moved about the abandoned twoleg nest. "You should get something to eat," he murmured, "a day started with a mouse is a good day..."
The brother nudged the she-cat forward, and they walked together away from their sleeping rug.
They padded towards the fresh kill pile, located near the nursery couch, and settled down to share a mouse.

Having arisen early to watch the sunrise from an Eastern window sill, Ruval was up and relaxing when the other cats began to stir. One of his hindlegs hung off the ledge, and his muzzle was rested carelessly upon his two crossed forepaws as his light gaze drifted over the cats. He watched Loki approach the nursery, the siblings Azalea and Oxalis share a mouse, and a couple other cats stirring to groom or approach the prey pile. Off to the side, however, the young tom caught sight of Snow sitting rather alone. Head tilting lazily, he flattened his ears to his skull with a soft exhale, and rose with the grace of long rest to stretch on the windowsill, then hop down to the floor. Intent to be friendly, he approached and lowered to his hindpaws a tails length away from her, then perked his ears in her direction. "You seem lonely this morning, thought I'd give you some company." He mewed softly, tail nub twitching as he settled in, then looked away to survey the family room again.

Snow looked up as she heard a voice speak to her. She recognized him as one of the scavengers, Ruval. She felt a twinge of happiness knowing that someone had come to sit with her. Snow nudged closer to Ruval, glad to have company.

Feeling the shecat nudge closer, he rumbled out a chuckle from the depths of his chest, and glanced her way with a soft gaze, before turning away. Giving his fur a few licks, he turned towards the prey pile, noting the low stock, and wondered if he should go scavenging for a bit to supply the cats with more food.. at this thought he perked up his ears, and sat up, turning to Snow with smiling eyes. "I don't, suppose you'd like to give me a fighter escort, to go scavenging? The prey pile is looking rather low." Ruval mewed, glad his effort to be friendly had been fruitful and hoping to continue it.

Snow looked into Ruval's eyes and nodded. She would never refuse a chance to help her denmates. Due to being mute, the fighter used body language such as flicking her tail to communicate.

 When Ember managed to gulp down the mouse, she slipped through the creak in the door that lead back to the healers' den. She checked the stock of herbs and almost gasped when she saw how low the supply was. At this moment, Ember turned around and padded back outside. When she spotted Stone, the she-cat quickly made her way over to him.
"Excuse me," she spoke up, then dipping her head respectfully. "Stone, I'm proposing an herb patrol since the herbs are on low stock."
Lukanth made sure no one would see him before finding his way through the crevice in the wall that led to the outside of camp. He settled down under some cover of leaves and bushes, enjoying the shade that the plants provided. Smoothing down some of his prickly fur, he sighed. There was nothing much to do, he could admit, but looking out into the forest and in a way, guarding the camp, he felt as though he was really proving his loyalty.

Stone's ears perked up as he heard the sound of a cat calling his name. Turning his head, he spotted one of the healers, Ember, standing next to him. The tom quickly scanned the camp to see which cats were awake before turning back to the healer. "Since Bramble and Ruval are awake, I can send out a scavenger patrol to find herbs. With luck, maybe they'll find a couple pieces of prey as well," the leader meowed, flashing his gaze towards the small prey pile.

At seeing her nod of acceptance, Ruval softened his gaze, giving a dip of his own head in response and standing up to give his fur a shake. He was just turning to head towards the entrance when the sound of his name made his ear swivel sideways, and the young tom turned towards Stone, who seemed to have decided on sending out a scavenger patrol. Nodding, he glanced towards Snow, then back to the leader, "Happy to oblige, could we bring Snow along as our fighter?" Ruval inquired, padding up to the gray tom with a bit of hope in his gaze.

Ember perked her ears at the suggestion. "That'd be great," then she turned her attention to Ruval, and her eyes brightened. "The more the better, I suppose." When she turned her gaze back to Stone, she hoped he was perfectly fine with the arrangement.

Stone looked towards Ruval. The scavenger was standing next to Snow, who had turned her head towards Stone as well. "Yes, you can bring her along," the leader meowed. He then turned his attention to Bramble, who had stopped grooming herself and was now looking towards the wall next to the exit of camp. Stone turned his head towards the wall and saw Aspen. "Bramble, you can bring Aspen along," the gray tom mewed, turning his gaze back to Bramble.

Snow got to her paws, glad that the leader had chosen her to go on patrol with the scavengers. The fighter felt happiest when she was of use to her denmates.
-
Bramble had her gaze on Aspen, having wanted to bring her trainee to patrol with the other scavengers. The brown she-cat got to her paws and quietly padded over to Aspen, who was clearly trying to hide in the shadows. "Aspen?" she called, hoping the young cat would respond.

In relief, the young tom dipped his head in gratitude towards Stone, then lifted it again to glance over at Snow, playfully nudging her with his shoulder. Giving his nub a slight, impatient twitch, he glanced around towards Aspen and Bramble, beginning to pads towards the entrance as the other cats accepted. He paused however, turning to look towards Ember, over at Stone, then back. "I assume you'll be coming, too? For identification of, well.." He gave a sheepish shrug, then gestured with his chin towards the Healer's room. Even though his mother was also a Healer, and Ruval's recklessness had landed him many a time in their care, he had never learned much at all about herbs, and would certainly not know what to get.
[ I have an open character, an older shecat, Ridge, who's Ruval's mother and a healer, if you want to RP with her ? ]

Snow saw turned her head towards the entrance of camp as the younger tom padded away from her. Realizing that the patrol was beginning to gather, she followed Ruval to the entrance of camp. As soon as she was standing next to the hole that acted as the entrance and exit to camp, she looked towards Bramble and Aspen.
-
At Aspen's tone, Bramble guessed that her apprentice was truthfully unwilling to come. She turned her head towards the entrance of camp, and saw that Snow was standing there, waiting for the two cats to follow. Bramble looked at Aspen and shrugged. Bramble began to pad towards Snow, hoping her trainee would follow.
-
Stone gazed at Ruval as he asked a question. The gray tom flashed his gaze towards Snow, who was beginning to pad towards the entrance of camp. Glancing back at Ruval, he meowed, "I will not come on this patrol. One fighter is enough." Since he used to be a fighter, Stone liked taking the role of fighter whenever he went on patrols.

At Aspen's comment, Bramble didn't care to look back and check if her trainee was following. The scavenger continued walking until she met up with Snow beside the hole that acted as the entrance and exit to camp. Bramble turned towards Aspen, noticing that the young cat was walking slowly towards the gathering patrol. She didn't mind, because the trainee was at least following.
-
Snow waited for Bramble and Aspen to catch up. When Bramble met up with her, Snow continued to wait for Aspen for a few heartbeats. Noticing that Bramble was already looking at her trainee, the fighter turned her head towards the outside of camp. She began to wave her tail, waiting for the others to be ready.

Hearing Stone speak up, Ruval looked up from his gaze towards Ember, and flattened his ears, slightly embarassed, before dipping his head respectfully. "I actually meant to ask Ember, it might be helpful to have a Healer with us to help, identify the herbs." He meowed with a sheepish tone, before turning towards Ember with a tilt of his head, curious.

(Sure thing  ) After eating their mouse, Oxalis and Azalea sat next to each other, murmuring quietly to each other. The nearly deaf she-cat stared at her brother, glad to have someone to talk to. It was hard to hear anyone else. Everything was muffled, and she mostly heard silence. Strangely enough, she could only hear one cat fully- her brother. "Are you sure you're still alright?" Oxalis asked concernedly, his green eyes flashing, "You only just recovered from your cold a few days ago. You know how often it comes back." Azalea flicked her tail dismissively. "M-e... fin...e" She replied hoarsely, nudging the tabby tom softly. The she-cat loved Oxalis, but he worried too much. Azalea might be fragile, but she knew how to fight sickness and didn't plan on dying anytime soon. Oxalis frowned, staring at her skeptically. "Are you positive? Maybe we should check with one of the healers..." he mewed, "if not for yourself, then just to reassure me." The lighter she-cat rolled her bright blue eyes, giving in. " Oh-k." The fighter was visibly relieved when she agreed, and practically leapt to his paws. "Let's get going then!" he called hurriedly, pushing her forward towards the healing room. I really hope she's okay... Oxalis thought to himself, his sister walking ahead of him. His ears pressed flat against his head, worry striking his heart. We only really have each other... I couldn't bear losing her...
The two paused before the medicine room, Azalea peering her head through the open door. She was lively as ever, yet still... she had been sick so many times. It was really only a matter of time till she gave in. Oxalis shook his head, taking a deep breath. He nudged his sister aside, feeling nervous. "Anyone here?" He called, glancing around. |
