An entrance

[nudge333]

Sundrip padded into the middle of camp, yawning from boredom, home from a long but successful hunt, one that had brought home a plump rabbit. Glancing about he licked at a paw thoughtfully looking at the sky, it was a beautiful night and the sky was full of stars. Oh such beauty you hold.

[~Nighthunter~]

Making his normal jog around the camp, and territory, Darkstar had just gotten back from a border partol. So far there was no threat to either of the borders, which was a good sign. He looked around and saw Sundrip with a rabbit, he smiled and nodded in curt greeting before walking over to him. Sundrip was a respectable and loyal warrior, and he saw no problem with sharing some freshkill with him." Hello Sundrip, mind if i sit with you?"

[nudge333]

Sundrip whipped his head down at the sound of his leader's voice, snapping him from his day dream. He nodded back respectively and smiled 'Course, how was her hunt tonight Darkstar? Nudging some of his prey towards the cat across from him, waiting for Darkstar to take the first bite.

[~Nighthunter~]

Darkstar sat and took a bite of the rabbit noticing the respect Sundrip was showing by allowing him to eat first. Picking his head up he swalloed the juicey mouthful, and replied to Sundrip." The hunt went well, caught a field mouse and a thrush. I expect to go out again later, care to join me?" He left it at an open invitation, not quite remembering whether Sundrip was already on a later patrol, or had plans of his own. While waiting, he sunk back into the meal not wanting to let it get cold before he comsumed his fill. Sundrip`s rabbit was a good catch, a sure sign of the healthy and plentiful prey in Windclan. Darkstar knew he could relax in that area knowing they were out of danger from loss of prey for the moment, which was a burden off his shoulders. It was deffinatly a benefit of Newleaf.

Sundrip nodded alittle as he dove into his bit of the rabbit ravinously, though he had been patient waiting to eat with the rest of his clan he was starving and gave up his manners as he swallowed his dinner hardly chewing it before he did so. Sundrip swallowed his past few hurried bites, his hunger besweached. Perhaps I will, I was contimplating having a good hunt my self, a nice bit of alone time I suppose... he thought a moment Would you excuse me Darkstar, I have just remembered I have something to tend to.

[~Nighthunter~]

Darkstar noticed with pained obviousness the hunger that drove Sundrip as he ravenged the rabbit. It was unsettling to know that he was so hungry when it was a good time for prey. Upon hearing his curt announcement that he was leaving to tend to other things of business, he wished he would stay and eat more. Darkstar certainatly didn`t like knowing that this tom before him was going hungry when prey was plentiful. He noded and spoke with no intentions of giving Sundrip the option to avoid it. " Of course, but promise me you`ll eat something more later. There is no reason you should be making yourself go hungry. There is plenty of food for everyone now." With having said that he went back to eatting the rabbit, and would then go hunting afterwards.

xx. BIRCHclaw

xx. Birchclaw sat awkwardly, cleaning himself and watching his leader and another warrior who's name he believed was Sundrip? Oh well he did not care too much. He just wanted to be on his leaders good side. Sundrip had a plump rabbit grasped firmly in his jaws that he appeared to be about to share with Darkstar. I should bring the leader plentiful prey reserves also if I am to be deputy...

[/color]His thoughts were interrupted as Sundrip rudely ravaged the rabbit as the leader ate. What a moron, eating that way in front of Darkstar. He let out a soft chuckle and continued grooming and watching.

xx. His pelt was darkened with dust and dirt and the taste was not a good one but the job had to be done. A future deputy cannot carry himself badly. He mused. Soon enough his coat gleamed with his leopard-like markings. He stood, holding himself half a tail length taller than the bigger toms. His dark orbs observed as the leader said something to Sundrip as the warrior left and finished his rabbit.

xx. He padded forward, to Darkstar. Darkstar, how good it is to see all the new prey! Newleaf is treated Windclan well. He meowed in a faux excitement. He was good at deceiving the clan of his liking for all of them, when really; all he wanted was to lead.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[~Nighthunter~]

Darkstar was not quite sure of how to handle Sundrip at the moment. Surely he would know that the prey was plentiful now. Perhaps that was his way of appearing noble, but he shouldn`t starve himself. I have other matters that need my attention, but i`ll see to him later. Its too bad Cascadingfur the deputy isn`t here to help me keep an eye on everyone, I wonder how he is doing. Sighing he lifted his head to catch the wind and let it ruffle his fur. Windclan was weaker then usual now, and he needed to keep a clear head. It was bad for them to be like this during this time of the year. Recognizing Birchclaw`s voice he smiled and flicked his tail inviting him to sit with him. " Lovely day Birchclaw, and the prey is running well."

Darkstar often wondered about Birchclaw. How was it that some cats didn`t notice others pain, it was beyond him. Surely if Birchclaw was close enough to greet him just now, then he must have seen the way in which Sundrip ravenged his meal. Its a wonder he didn`t ask why. Remembering that Birchclaw was a strong and loyal warrior, he tried shaking the thoughts from his head. Perhaps he hadn`t been paying attention. Afterall not every warrior was supposed to be as alert and watchful as Darkstar was."Birchclaw would you like to come on a hunt. The Freshkill pile needs replenishing."

[lithe]

xx. Birchclaw's tail twitched, holding his fake front very well. He gave as much of a smile to his leader as a cat can manage. Darkstar, your coat is quite shiny today! He mused happily. Oh and yes leader, I'd be more than happy to replenish my clans food source. We must all eat well while we can. He laughed slightly and flicked Darkstar's shoulder with his tail tip carefully. Ahh leader, we will make a good team; you and I. He thought. He admired Dark's leadership skills a lot, he wanted to be like him someday.

xx. He twitched his white whiskers thoughtfully and stood; standing measurably taller than his superior. What hunting party will we be going on? He asked curtly. He turned his head examining his pelt for dirt and such. Lifting a large beige paw and licking it, he dragging it over his face; which resembled more ancient cat ancestors than the clan cats.
