The Meeting of Sky and Lake

[snowfoot]

OOC: lol.... oops 0_0

Cherrykit looked at her uncle with wide eyes. "That must have been scary!" she meowed s she padded up to the black tom, she stopped next to him and leaned against his side, trying to be comforting. "I got lost once, my brothers left camp without telling anybody or with anybody with them and told me to come too." she glanced at Cedarkit and Birchkit. "They ran ahead and I got lost, it was so scary. You must have been really scared too". she stopped and lifted her gaze to meet her uncles blue-green eyes. The kit looked to her mother then put a smile back on her face. "Why can't he come back to camp with us!" she meowed excitededly "Then he won't be lost anymore!"

ooc: someone notice a change then say something about Eagletalon ^.^

[~*Pikeru]

OOC: heh? If you mean that he seems a bit jelous, I guess I noticed that! ^^ I think he thinks Skywalker and Lakeripple aren't brother and sister.....



IC: Skywalker gave a greatful look to Cherrykit. "Oh, I'm sorry, but no. I could never get used to that life-style. You notice this accent? Well, this is how I've talked for many moons, as your cats say it. You see.....I have learned many things in my travels. I just don't see it as very wise for me to try and change just so I fit what the clan wants from me...." By now, the jet black tom was scrapping for every possible reason. Just in case Cherrykit would be able to retaliate.

Lakeripple flicked her tail over her brother's ear, feeling his pain. In her head she was reliving that horrible day, Speakingwater had just named them, and everyone was happy, when clouds gathered in great heaps and spilled freezing water into the ocean. She remembered how her mother had grasped Skywalker by the scruff and run toward the far off hills, and how her father and pushed her forward quickly toward the Clan territory, a green blob of trees off in the distance. Water had licked dangerously at her feet, threatening to carry her off to the ocean where she would drown, and the roaring sound wasn't comforting as it normally was. Terror pulsed in her veins, and she looked up at her father and wailed something about Skywalker needing to be by her side. But the gray tom had just shook his head and pressed onward. Then the wave came upon them and her father was engulfed. "Run!" he had yowled. "Keep the legacy of our tribe alive!" Then she had turned and run to the trees, before passing out. The next thing she knew she was waking up being gently licked by Silenteyes, the WaterClan queen she had thought for so long was her mother.

Sunset followed Skywalker's scent to the lake. She breathed in and smelled Lakeripple, Skywalker's sister, and three kits, as well as a strange tom. She creeped out and peered at the seen. Lakeripple's eyes were closed, and she looked horrified, and the kits were frisking eagerly around Skywalker's legs. She crept out of the shadows and stood behind Skywalker, breathing in his familiar scent, wishing he knew how much he meant to her. Then she nodded to Lakeripple and stepped out beside Skywalker, brushing her tail across his fur.

OOC: Sorry for possible bad spelling. I can't get on the laptop at my house, and the reply button doesn't show up. That means I have to use the quick reply area to post. So not spellcheck is avalible.... *sobs*


IC: Skywalker jumped as he noticed Sunset suddenly beside him. How did she get here?! First his dark green-blue eyes were fixed on his sister as she went into deep thought, then suddenly her warm scent had washed over him. The jet black tom turned to to the she-cat, and flattened his ears in saddness. He had been caught. What would she say now?

[lakeripple]

Lakeripple looked up in surprise as the newcomer ran her tail over Skywalker's flank. She recognized her as the rogue from the gathering, and the she-cat she had chased out of WaterClan territory before. The orange she-cat was looking at her with narrowed blue eyes, her sparkling gaze gently probing and questioning.

Sunset looked first at Skywalker, then at Lakeripple. "Hello," she mewed in her Clan accent. "Nice to see you again Lakeripple. Glad Skywalker finally got to talk to you." she ran her tail over Cherrykit's ears. "Nice kits." she commented. Then she turned to Skywalker. "I'm not angry Skywalker," she mewed. "She is your sister, and StarClan knows that I have gone to see my family plenty of times. Besides, I am not your mother, nor your leader. And you are no kit. You have a right to your own life and you can make your own choices." She looked up with pained eyes, as if she was trying to tell him how his figure looked handsome to her, how his eyes sparkled like Silverpelt, how his mew filled her life with joy. She looked down at the kits. Then made a silent wish that this was her future.

[~*Pikeru]

OOC: Aw. . . . .Sunset and Skywalker sitting in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!!! XD *gets slugged by Skywalker* ow... "



IC: "Thank you, Sunset" Skywalker purred heartfully to the she-cat. He knew they had formed a strong bond threw-out the little time he had spent with she, Stream, and Misty. Maybe even Bird if the young she-cat chose to stay. In fact, he had actually grown fond of her. The jet black tom gave her a gentle headbutt, that casually ran down the she-cat's shoulder. His dark colored fur puffed up slightly from the cold, and made the odd white spot on his chest grow a bit. The same dot his mother always called the window to his heart.

[Spottedshadow]

Eagletalon scented another rogue. My kits! he thought in alarm. He burst into the scene from his hiding place. "Lakeripple! How could you!?" he sobbed.

[lakeripple]

Lakeripple ducked her head. She looked at Eagletalon and sighed. "I love you Eagletalon," she mewed. "But this is my brother. Our kits have a right to know him. And as for Sunset," she shot a glance at the orange she-cat. "She is simply here because of Skywalker." Lowering her head, she locked her blue-green eyes with her mate's. "Skywalker and I are nothing more then kin. You are my mate Eagletalon, and I love you. I love you more than I can say, more than is possible to say. I would die for you if I had to. But you don't own me."

Sunset gaped at Lakeripple. She understood about how she felt about Skywalker! She felt the same why about this Eagletalon. If only Skywalker knew....

[Spottedshadow]

"I'm sorry. I smelled the other rogue, and I was worried for you and my kits," Eagletalon padded over to Lakeripple, and licked her cheek.

[lakeripple]

Lakeripple sighed and flicked Eagletalon's ears with her tail. "Stupid furball," she mewed playfully.

[~*Pikeru]

Skywalker felt a bit out of place here now that Eagletalon had suddenly burst in. The only thing the jet black tom could think about at that heartbeat was if the tom would tell Waterclan or not. Being his sister's mate, the once tribe cat saw no reason he would. It may make the clan question her.

As Skywalker allowed his sister and her mate to chat, the tom couldn't help but let his dark blue-green eyes inch to Sunset. It had always been a surprise to him how calm and trustworthy she was, yet could turn serious and battle-ready at the drop of a leaf. He couldn't help but admire that. Also, it took a wile before he noticed how he was staring at her. His mouth was the slightest smile, and his eyes looked lost. This must have made him look silly or mouse-brained.

[lakeripple]

Sunset looked at Skywalker and noticed how he was looking at her. A thrill ran up her body. He was looking at her the way she felt about him!

[Spottedshadow]

Eagletalon glanced over at the ginger rogue and Skywalker. They looked as if they felt he and Lakeripple did.

[lakeripple]

OOC: I think you mean the ginger rogue and Skywalker.

[Spottedshadow]

ooc: oops *looks away embarrassed* *fixes*
