Luna noticed that Ice's attention was turned toward their parents. She pushed against Ice, giving his shoulder a few licks. "Something isn't right." She whispered, almost silently. She continued to watch the battle, which was getting quite boring, like her father had suggested by his harsh, loud words. Luna was more intrigued by her mother, but she didn’t show any sign of it.

Ice's agreeing nod was so small it was almost nonexistent, barely noticeable. He watched his mom out of the corner of his eye, pretending to focus on the fight. In a quiet hiss directed at his sister – not a mean hiss, just more of a whisper – he said, "What do you think is wrong?"

OOC: I don't know... By the way, when should we have Shimmer and Touslepelt talk 'privately' as he suggested?

Luna listened to her brother speak. "I don't know. Do you have any ideas?" She replied back, letting out a little yawn.

"Maybe... Mom is arguing with... Dad." It would take some getting used to, calling this huge tom his father.

(ACK!!!!!! SRY lack of comp in VA. I just got back.)
Aqua jumped back intime to take most of the force of risk's attack. Still the small she cat slid several more feet back, her silver white coat getting spattered and dirty. "You got my pretty fur dirty..." she mewed in mock forlorn. She Crouched again and inched forward. She paused. She would move this time, but would he try and move first thinking that was what she was aiming for again?

Shimmer struggled to keep everything inside her. She was working on the cold shell that usually surrounded her, but little things from inside her kept drilling their way to the outside. She was swimming against the current, working hard to stay in the same place. But that was better than showing everyone herself, letting her emotions leave. Right now, she really needed to kill something. It didn't really matter what, even a mouse would do. So she turned to Touslepelt and asked, with no hint of anything in her voice, "May I hunt?" It was his territory after all, and as much as she hated it, she had to ask for permission.

Touslepelt looked at her, almost shocked. was she really prepared to leave her kits with him? he knew she didnt trust him and he didnt expect her to either. "If you must" he growled.
Risk smirked as he hit Aqua's front side; though not with as much force as he had hoped. quite smoothly, and without loosing his force of forward motion, he straightened his course again, paws pounding against the soggy ground once more, and as he approached Aqua, he lept up off the ground, forearms raised to catch the small she-cat, should she try to dogde him.

Shimmer padded slightly away, slipping through the underbrush just far enough so that she could still hear the others and see lithe shapes through the undergrowth. Her kits weren't safe, but she didn't think that that softy Aqua would let anything happen. If Touslepelt attacked, she would make noise. Shimmer would know to come then. A scrabbling sound caught her attention and she whipped around, letting pure instinct take her body. A squirrel had seen her and was frozen, muscles tensing and ready for a dash. Shimmer stood completely motionless, her eyes not directly staring at the rodent. It eventually relaxed, forgetting her presence. It was amazing how even creatures like this small mammal were subject to her tricks. The squirrel bend slightly to retrieve the nut it had left lying on the dirt. The thing would be a juicy, fresh meal for the rodent, but first the squirrel would be a juicy, fresh meal for Shimmer. The she-cat silently and suddenly made her move, claws flashing only once, and the squirrel lay bloody and dead. Shimmer wasn't all that hungry, but the food couldn't go to waste. She scraped up some dirt and buried her prey, hunting next a vole. It was an oblivious thing, not even noticing Shimmer when her shadow fell across his little body, only realizing what had happened when teeth met his flesh. Shimmer picked up both of her kills and began to pad back towards the other cats, planning to feed the fresh-kill to her kits.
Ice saw his mother leave and wondered where she was going. She disappeared into the brambles, but can't have gone far. He saw occasional flashes of a white coat in the trees and he knew his mother was close. He looked up at the big tom, little blue eyes showing barely any fear. In an act of extreme stupidity, Ice padded toward his father. "Touslepelt... er, Dad... I mean, sir?" he said, then got his nervousness under control. "Are you going to teach me how to fight?" Eagerness overwhelmed the fact that Ice was, in fact, quite scared of Touslepelt.

Aqua had been ready for this, she leapt head on at Risk, claws out ready to take him with all the force she could muster from her small body. This was usually surprising and threw her opponent off at least a little, however with this tom she was unsure. This time, she didn't twist her body at all to change directions she aimed directly at his chest , hoping to hit her mark without getting any fatal blows.

Shimmer padded back to her kits, setting the warm animals in front of them. "Have a snack," she purred. She bent and took a quick bite of the squirrel, then continued to silently, with eyes as cold as ice, watch the fight. She was completely in control of herself, effortlessly using her mask of emotionless calm.
Ice continued to watch his father until suddenly a paw guided him gently away. Slightly annoyed, Ice avoided his mother's scolding by returning to his siblings, and munching down on some mouse. He wasn't that hungry, and stopped after only a couple bites. He watched Touslepelt intently, wondering if the tom would reply.
