ThunderClan Territory

Or see more places?" He asked kindly and softly.

Owlkit thought for a moment, cocking her head to the side slightly before she finally made up her mind. "Oh...probably go see more places, I'll have to remember this when I'm an apprentice though, I'll probably come here a lot of the time," Owlkit mewed, shifting her paws a little in a small hop-skip. It looked strange, no doubt...but then again, Owlkit had never been one to care what other cats thought of her. Did an opinion really matter so much? Or was it more of the motive behind it that mattered to other cats? Whatever it was, Owlkit honestly didn't care. She awaited Storkpaw's reply to her comment, her grey blue hues fixating on the moving water before she tore her gaze away and allowed herself to look back at her friend.

Storkpaw nodded, "Alright, it's what ever you want to do. But this next place is my favorite." He said with a grin. "C'mon, we can run there, it's not far." Storkpaw said before picking up his pace so that he dashed away from the river a bit deeper into the territory. His white and black striped pelt turned to what looked like a grey blur that went whizzing by. All while he stretched his legs, he made sure that he didn't accidentally leave Owlkit in the dust, and adjusted his pace her her. He soon heard it, through the rush and pounding of blood in his ears, a little trickling noise. He slowed to a stop and offered Owlkit a large grin, "ready to see another beautiful place, more than the one before?" He asked, but without hesitation, ducked through a holly bush, toward the trickling sound. As he emerged, a beautiful sigh unfolded before him. There was a small runoff from the river that laced through the Thunderclan Forest. He had found this place while searching for water to wet mossball with. The tiny little stream tumbled gracefully down a small waterfall with jutting rocks that gave it a stepped effect. Due to the surrounding bushes and the little rays of sun that filtered through, you could see the dust floating through the air, making it appear sparkly. The water pond and stream cast a light blue light into the nearby shrubbery, giving the scene a wonderful and lustrous look to it. "Tada" he mewed a little sheepishly.

Owlkit took off after Storkpaw, although her smaller legs couldn't quite keep up with him as well as she would have liked. Although when he adjusted his pace, she was able to keep with him much easier, and she was soon running at a fairly quick pace alongside him. After a moment, when they reached the bush, she stopped and looked at it for a moment after Storkpaw had already pushed himself through it. A little nervously, she slipped through it after him and opened her grey blue hues wide as she tried to take everything in at once. She wasn't very good at it; her head was turning almost in all directions as she tried to look at everything at once. "W-wow! How'd you find this place?" Owlkit asked, her mew calmer than it generally was. She was glad of it; she didn't like the squeaky tone that she sometimes got in her voice, it made her feel much younger than she was.

Owlkit sat down, wrapping her thick tail around her paws like a protective blanket, and gazed out over the scene. It was quite beautiful; she was enjoying it very much, especially the water. For whatever reason, it seemed as though Owlkit had a soft spot for watery areas now, and for the first time, she almost wished she had been born RiverClan. Then she would be able to be around water like this every day. Well yeah, but then I wouldn't have met Storkpaw; well maybe I would've, when I became an apprentice, but I wouldn't be seeing these beautiful spots, Owlkit thought with a wistful expression. Too bad there wasn't some way she could see all the territories...at least, not without getting in big trouble. Besides, she was pretty sure that Ratnight wouldn't be too happy with her, and neither would Storkpaw, come to think of it. No, she was just fine where she was.

The Coans are not to be messed with. But here he was standing in the midst of one, here to gather information for his own allegiance. As the Norwegian Forest cat gazed around at the trees looming above him, he let his thoughts wander to what it might be like to live in a Clan. He soon aborted the thought train and returned to the task at hand. The long haired cream you turned to see his traveling companions nearby. "Where do we start?" He asked eagerly, his long fluffy tail swooshing behind him excitedly.

"Where do we start?" Shale echoed, with a bit of sarcasm running through his question. The black-pelted tom stiffly laughed and answered it. "Why, we'd obviously start here." Each step he took was further into an unknown wilderness. ThunderClan territory was quite pitiful compared to the Dusk Syndicate one, in his eyes, and their scent was painful to smell. It was so different and contradicting to his own. The tom wrinkled his face and turned the corners of his lips down, padding forwards after Calixto.
"Can't wait until those scummy clanners notice that we're on their territory," he said, flicking his tail all the while. Despite all the differences between the syndicate and the Clan, he couldn't help but feel a hint of anticipation.

She nodded quietly, following her mentor into the training cave as her dilute calico pelt darkened with the shady territory. "I'm trying to get Northpaw to, y'know- disown Starclan- like Ratnight did, right?" Echofrost was an intimidating cat, and Twitepaw didn't want to mess up in front of her mentor- in fact, she was one of the only cats the apprentice really respected in this clan, filled with loyalists who had known nothing their entire lives but the rule of Starclan. She assumed the molly would be proud of her- Ratnight and Echofrost were very close, she thought.

Echofrost chuckled soflty at the words of her apprentice, her moss eyes finding their way to the dilute callico's pair. "I wouldn't waste time on that one. North'll learn her way soon enough of she'll meet her fate." She said with a shrug that was followed by a yawn. The bengal dipped her back in a stretch, letting her sharp talons slip into the crusty earth beneath them. "Stubborn souls need to learn on their own, some can't be changed." She said more softly, eyes watching the youngster carefully and hoping they would understand. She wasn't sure if Twite had formed a friendship with the med apprentice or not, but that should be a friendship to break. And trying to change an opinionated cat was a lost cause; being the most stubborn cat in the world Echofrost knew this well.

The trek to ThunderClan was greeted by the exposure to rain and cold wind, and by the time the trio arrived to the crisped forest that housed the clan, Locus was grateful for the small amount of shelter the burnt forest provided. Upon further review of their surroundings, the air still reeked of smoke and ash, but there wasn't the burn of fresh fumes; rainfall had suppressed the fire, and the scent was muted by the dilution.

From the looks of it, the territory as far as the eye could see was gone; a charcoal and ashen shell of its former self. "Deeper," the steel tom rumbled. "With the fire damage, it is probable they've moved closer to the other clans for sanctuary. There is little life where we are." Silence surrounded them, the dead forest living to it's appearance. They weren't trespassing to chat with one another however, and Locus moved to pass Calixto. While the thought of running into clan cats was ideal, they were here to investigate and report back to the clans, not fight, and Locus refused to go against Rook's instruction. The other tom vaguely reminded the fighter of Neomora, and he trusted his judgement.

Besides, if they were to run into a patrol, they'd be outnumbered, and that would be a fight they couldn't win.

Calixto nodded his rather large, fluffed out head. His cream based fur stuck out like a sore thumb in the midst of the ashen, burned forest that surrounded the groups. Locus had a pony, what mouse brain would want to live in conditions like this. He then when in to think, if their had been a fire in the Syndicate, what would they have done? Obviously not rely on the Clans. He became somewhat jealous that the Clans could reply on each other, but then remembered, putting trust in another creates more ways for lies to creep in. The Clans could just as easily turn on one another as they did rely on each other. "Alright Locus, any idea which way they might be? The smell of burnt fills the air and makes it rather difficult to scent anything else." He mewed light heartedly, hoping to bring at least a few good times from this journey. Besides, how often would a Syndicate cat get to visit the Clans, with permission.

Storkpaw beamed as he watched in joy with Owlkits excitement with this dream like place that he had found. The young Bengal was enjoying this outing more than he had thought. He hadn't expected how wonderful it was for him to sit back and watch this she cat smile and love the things around her, besides she had a pretty smile. No, no, he couldn't like her, she was still a kit and the Code forbade it. He gave a slight shrug, not completely caring. He enjoyed the company of Owlkit, and enjoyed seeing her beautiful smile. "I found this when my brother, Barkskip and I came out for some, well...friendly competition you could say. He tumbled upon it first, and I followed, but we were both astounded by the beauty of it." He took a pause here, letting his eyes trail over the wonderful scene again, and back onto the she cat. "I take it you like it?" He asked with a smirk, already knowing the answer form her expression.

Lizardpaw sharped her claw on the walls, leaving the last in a thousand marks... She'd been working on this for 5 moons.. She'd started when she was 1 moon old, and continued until she was an apprentice... She'd been sneakin to-and-fro the camp just so she could work on this, making it sort of like a time keeping chart. As her claws slid down, making the last mark, she stepped back and admired her work.

Violetpelt sneaked into the cave, wanting to surprise her. She didn't really understand the scratch marks on the wall, and just thought of them as random scratch marks for training purposes. Standing right behind her apprentice she suddenly said, "What do you have there?"
