Traveling

[cougarpaw]

//aww... See you later then.//

[glow=black,2,400]As Skull nodded to Rouge, curiousity pricked him. "Who exactly will train me?" he asked, secretly hoping it would be Skull himself.[/glow]

[Sorrowheart]

[shadow=red,left,300]"Momma did you hear that, skull said I'm gonna be a woyal woner" she squeeked.[/shadow]
[glow=red,2,300]
"I do" she meowed looking back at skull, she then looked at the excited bone hopping up and down, pretening to kill venomclaw, "Venomclaw, go by the stream and get a wash, you'll stain my daughter with blood" she whispered a growl. Grabbing bone by the scruff tight and pulling her under neath her, sorrow couldn't leave and miss hearing something important skull had to say, she couldn't just go and nurse bone now.[/glow]

Venomclaw nodded, and stalked out of the meeting.

[shadow=red,left,300]Bone needed sorrow's stomach, "momma, I'm hungry" she whimphered quietly.[/shadow]
[glow=red,2,300]
"Fine" sorrow grunted and pulled her into a bramble thicket, and lay on some moss, and nurse Bone.[/glow]

[Burningwing]

[glow=black,2,300]Skull nodded back at Sorrow and Rogue. He felt the excitement spreading through the cats. He felt at ease when Sorrow sent Venomclaw away. He sighed. And yawned showing a jaw full of saber sized fangs that gleamed a whte sheam.
He turned and watched the cats for a moment then sat and began to groom himself.
" It is time to rest for the planning and fighting ahead!" He shouted out to the crowd.[/glow]

//bye//

[Sorrowheart]

//BYE //

[cougarpaw]

//Bye Burny! //

[glow=black,2,400]Rouge nodded and sat down, waiting for any more orders before the time for him to leave or go with someone who requested him came.[/glow]

[Nightfur and Co.]

Midnight lashed her tail again, but said no more and went to sit by Meer and Eagle again. She kept silent during their conversation with Skull, apparently ignored by him. She was used to it, but that was her kittypet life. She had lost her collar; she had more confidance now.

"Skull?" SHe intended her meowed to be fierce, but it came out as a mew. She was still scared. "I-I would like to train, too."

[Sorrowheart]

[glow=red,2,300]Sorrow walked out of the bramble thicket carrying her kit in her jaws, she felt Bone only move to get herself comfortable. Sorrow looked at midnight and nodded, she sat beside meer again and set her kit on the ground. "Skull, if you don't mind me, but I would like to train midnight" she meowed, and looked at the drowsy bone, her little eyelids fluttering to keep open, and as the little kit settled underneath sorrow, feeling tiny warmth, sorrow purred her kit to sleep.[/glow]


Venomclaw returned looking better, his grey and black pelt glissend with moonlight.

[Meerful]

<eer stayed silent. She felt unwelcome here, an oucast, a loenr among loenrs. Somehow, Meer could tell Skull wasn't pleased with her actions. Her fur prickled a bit in irritation. What had she done wrong?

[Sky & Eagle]

Eagle growled at Sorrowheart. A cat who was only concerned about blood staining their kit had no place training Midnight. He turned to Skull still baring his teeth. "I do not have the bloodlust that seems to own most of these cats and I do not wish to become a better warrior. I only wish to live freely and to be able to make decisions for myself."

[Sorrowheart]

[glow=white,2,300]Sorrow looked at eagle, she felt his dipleasing look at her, she let out a small growl, she looked at bone and looked at venomclaw, she whispered in his ear, and looked back at skull.[/glow]

Venomclaw nodded, and picked up boen by the tiny scruff and left, he trotted out of the clearing carrying the kit in his mouth to the abandon twoleg house.

[Sky & Eagle]

Eagle saw the one crazed by blood leave carrying the kit. He felt somewhat happy that she wouldn't have to be here. Bone had seemed small and vunerable compared to the loners surrounding her. And he felt even better when Venomclaw left. Something was not right with that cat.

[Meerful]

meer growled, raising her hackles. "I'm a blood thirsty cat with no morals?" She siad.

[Sky & Eagle]

"That's not what I said." Eagle muttered. "It just seems like you are driven by blood Meer. Killing has become part of your life. I'm not as willing to join in by murder that's all."

[Meerful]

Meer hissed, venom sowing in her eye. "Killing is the only way you can live! To be strong, it's survival of the fitest! Kill or be killed, eat or be eaten. That is the only way to live. Only the strong can survive. I've no ambition to become greta, but in order to live, I must be willing to kill. To sacrifice. To toy with death. You will son see, or you will die as well." SHe growled, her fur poking out in every direction. Anger flare din her eye.

[Sky & Eagle]

Eagle met her gaze evenly but didn't back down. "I did not mean to insult you Meer. In the short amount of time we've spent together I've gained a sort of respect for you. I will kill if necessary, don't doubt that. I merely mean that I'm not willing to kill when I can talk my way out of a situation."

[Sorrowheart]

[glow=black,2,300]Sorrowheart watched the quarreling cats, she took in deep breaths as she watched them insult one another, many things they both don't know, "Well eagle, I believe that you can win either way, they are like a yin and yang sign, a different solution for the same thing, but killing isn't what you think it is" she meowed, watching every flick of Skull's tail.[/glow]

[Sky & Eagle]

He shrugged. "Killing is killing in my book, wether you have a reason or not you're taking a life." Eagle blinked slowly and sighed. Maybe he'd never understand the lure of blood. With Midnight next to him however he soon forgot focusing on her anger. And she was just concerned with a pregnant cat.

[goldentail]

"Leave her alone Eagle" growled Splinter. Then he turned to Skull. "I would like to learn to fight with three legs" he meowed.

[Sorrowheart]

[glow=red,2,300]Sorrow nodded she could understand the cat, she felt as if he wasn't exactly knowing but was trying to protect the life of another, "Eagle, would you take a life if you had to?" sorrow meowed looking at the bright moon[/glow]

[Sky & Eagle]

Now he was getting slightly annoyed. Splinter had never liked him but he had moved on from his arguement with Meer. As much as he tried not to let it show, Eagle was fairly certain it did. Which annoyed him even more. Finally, he took a deep breath and thought back to his parents. The image of them in his head calmed him down and steeled his heart. He would do his best never to forget.

[goldentail]

Splinter hated this Eagle but he was slowly beginning to be able to control his anger. "Eagle have you ever lost a love a true love and heard her death cry and saw her eyes glazed over and her ears against her head knowing that you were too late. Do you know how it feels to feel helpless?" he hissed. "Sometimes we have to kill and to be able to redeem ourselves so our loved ones spirit can finally rest knowing the one who killed them suffered."

[Sky & Eagle]

"I watched both my parents die of greencough when I was mere moons old. I was helpless then just as I am helpless now. I've learned to accept that there are somethings I cannot control and another cat's destiny is one of them." Eagle said coldly. He looked up at the moon, mirroring Sorrowheart's movements. "If my life or the life of another I loved depended on it I would kill. But I would grieve for the cat lost, accept that I couldn't have done any better and move on."

[Meerful]

Meer growled. "You guys, I've watched helplessly as all my loved ones tried to kill me, so killed them. Kill or be killed. That's it. End of topic." Meer leaned her head against Splinter, her eye was filed with sadness. No matter what, Eagle had a reaon to fight with her whe nall she wanted was to be surrounded by firneds for once in her life.

[Sky & Eagle]

Eagle shook his head. "If it was my life or theirs I'd do the same Meer. If they were fighting against me and it couldn't be helped I would kill them. It saddens me to say that but I realize that we're not living in a place where we can be at peace.

[Meerful]

Meer nodded. "Then maybe we should try to fix that. Practice what you preahc. Don't argue with me, I wont hurt you" SHe mewed flatly.

[Sky & Eagle]

Eagle swallowed a comment that would have made Meer mad. This she-cat was someone to have on his side, not make an enemy of. "Sorry Meer, I was just trying to make my point."

[Meerful]

"And that's why I feel the need to slash at your throat. I don't care what you say to me, but whether you value your life or not, isn't my problem" She glared at Eagle, her eye focusing on burning a hole through his fur with her fury.

[Sky & Eagle]

"I didn't say that I didn't value my life," Eagle hissed getting to his paws. "If you really didn't care what I was saying you'd ignore me so I must be hitting a nerve somewhere in your heart. I'm trying to be civil Meer, but living by myself for moons changes ones demenor."

[Meerful]

Meer growled. "It's not a matter whether you care, soem say I only hear what I want to. That may be true, adn hearing soemthing bad about me is what I want so I have an excuse to killl you. I lived alone all my life, surroudned by enemies. I live the same way now as I did then. So, I guess it doesn't, and that's your excuse." She fleed her claws, the wind toying with her fuir.

[Sky & Eagle]

"You've lived amoung other cats. It's different than total solitude. Get over your sob story and move on. You killed to survive. You killed cats you once loved. You killed to rid yourself of trouble. I'm lucky that I never had to do any of those things." The tabby spat, ears flat. He ground his teeth together in frustration. "You could kill me now and I'd go on the list of once enamies. (sp?) But it wouldn't solve your clan issues or help you in any way. Then why did you kill? Because I annoyed you. Tch, get over youself Meer, there are more cats in the world than you as I'm sure Skull would agree. Even Rogue could agree with me on that."
