Frost padded to the den, a couple of mice in tow. She sat them down, and turned her smokey blue eyes on her mother. "Are you hungry mother?" the almost-perfect shimmer copy mrowed up. "Is Ice back yet?"

"He is out hunting... with his new friend." Her tone had taken on its emotionless quality, and her eyes showed she was waiting for Frost's reaction. She said no more; she would assess the situation then continue with an explanation.

"He brought someone here?" Frost blinked, forcing a sharp edge out of her voice as she spoke to her mother. She sat down curling her tail over her paws. "How did the cat make it here with out killing theirself?" she added to herself under her breath.

Shimmer nodded. "Yes. Quite a nice young she-cat about your age. Defiant, strong personality." Her tone implied that Frost would like the new cat, but the Balinese made a point not to say it out loud. She paused, then added in her more normal tone, "Where's your sister?" She assumed that Luna was still out hunting, perhaps enjoying a solitary walk. Shimmer understood that; being alone was one of the things she loved.

(Let’s just say they got back from hunting, and how ‘bout Yen have the bigger kill? Just to impress Shimmer dearest.)
The Siamese padded through the cave’s threshold, carrying a raven. The stupid bird had been injured when she had spotted it and it had been easy prey. Her blue eyes glittered with pride as she dropped it and waited for Ice to come in behind her. In fact, that wasn’t the only reason she was swollen with pride, she had found the den without much help as well. Something caught her gaze. A cat. Another cat was with Shimmer now and... It looked exactly like her. Just smaller. She finished in thought. The loner wouldn’t go further from where she stood, not knowing whom this cat was.

OOC: Fine by me!
Shimmer's cool-voiced introduction began: "Frost, Yen. Yen will be joining our family, at least for the time being." Her tone wasn't one that would let in argument from anyone, not for now. There was warning for both sides of any disagreement: Her firm words were unshakably saying than Yen would be welcome, but also that the situation was not permanent. She looked out the door for Luna or Ice, ready to begin a meal. Her stomach growled silently beneath silky fur, though the pointed cat would never let on. Her teeth itched to dig into meat, though it was not feline blood she was after at the moment.
Ice padded back inside, nodding a quick greeting to Frost on the way towards his mother. She was still perched glamorously on a relatively large rock, and so he looked up as he spoke to her. "We both caught stuff," he began clumsily, gesturing to her raven, which looked all good except its wing, which looked all the wrong way, and his own plump vole. Shimmer liked a good rodent, he knew, so she wouldn't be at all unhappy with the smaller piece. He did worry, however, about what Frost was thinking. If his sister didn't like Yen, life wouldn't be too fun. He couldn't imagine much of anything worse than a fight between Yen and Frost if it was an actual dead-on battle. But his thoughts turned away from his sister as he thought of the raven that he would soon be digging into, and the fact that he was sharing it with someone who he hadn't known until today.

"Luna was right behind me, she may have caught another scent or something.She should be here soon." Frost mrowed in reply once she got the chance. She was ignoring Yen like the pair of mice at her paws. She curled her tail over her paws, not really hungry and waited for the next cat to speak, whoever it was.

Yen did the same to her acquaintance, now completely ignoring her existence to the world. She was the same to cats as they treated her and wasn’t going to be just a little doll that stood around smiling nervously. The Siamese went over to her mossy nest and tossed the bird aside, which landed in Ice’s bedding. She flicked her tail invitingly towards the rexan tom to come and join her in a nice meal.
Ooc: >=P Frost is such a jerk. But who isn’t in this forest? Lawl.

Ice's eyes danced almost tauntingly at Frost as he padded to join Yen. He loved his sister, of course, but still hoped to make her jealous for the attention he was giving his newest friend. He grasped the bird in his jaws and removed it from his bed, placing the limp fresh-kill just next to the place where the two clumps of moss touched. He took a small bite then sat back to let Yen taste some of her catch.
Shimmer quickly and somehow delicately swallowed the large rodent Ice had killed. She could feel that tension was high, but chose to let the young ones deal with it themselves. If Yen caused a fight, it would create a well-needed reason to get rid of her. Ice would be safe from the silvery lure of love. But she still knew that it wouldn't do any good to remove one cat - if Ice was going to fall in love, it might as well be sooner than later; Shimmer didn't want her son to spend his entire life caught up in something so stupid. Her thoughts flickered briefly to Touslepelt, and what little of a conscience she had left wouldn't quit calling her a hypocrite. But she didn't want to love him. She wanted to have that whole thing over with. Why couldn't he just try to kill her and have it be over with? A pure blast of anger hit her, which she hid successfully. She was furious at that rogue you couldn't even call a mate. If any cat tried to lay a paw on her kits, she would kill them very slowly, reveling in every moment of their pain. She calmed herself down by beginning to wash her face, an inconspicuous action that also lowered the heat of rage that had just been trying to boil out of her.

Frost merely returned her brother's taunting look with one of pure, uncaring ice. It wasn't her problem if her brother wanted to be an idiot over a total stranger. She was only surprised her mother hadn't killed or run off the little siamese, and Frost rather wished she had. however, it wasn't her place to question her mother, so she wouldn't. She wasn't forced to have anything to do with the pair of them and she'd keep it that way. She crouched down over the smaller mouse she had caught, pushing the other out of the way and picking at her meal. She finished her mouse and sat back up wondering when her sister would turn up. She resisted strongly the urge to roll her eyes at Ice and Yen. He wanted to make her jealous, she could tell...Hard to do when she didn't care, instead she was just very disgusted and aggrivated at his display.
Ooc: yeah she is sort of, but in esscence she is just the definition of loner. It's not really that she's a jerk...She just doesn't care.

Yen dipped her head down and took a minuscule bite out the prey, the raven’s warm blood meeting her mouth. She chewed slowly, savoring the flavor that melted onto her taste buds. She swallowed finally, the small chunk being nothing more then to check if the bird was even good to eat. She wasn’t that hungry for any matter and didn’t mind if Ice ate the majority of it. The tan and dark brown she-cat slowly licked her maw clean of the blood that had only begun to dry, narrowing her blue eyes in seducing manner towards her black and white companion.
Ooc: I just wanted to see what he would do. XD

OOC: He won't get a chance to do anything... that's a very dangerous idea around Shimmer.
Shimmer's narrowed eyes were watching the entire situation carefully. Frost was doing a wonderful job of either not caring at all or keeping her expressions impressively in check. The long furred point couldn't help but admire her smaller version for being like her mother in more than just looks. Though the deadly loner shuddered to think of it, at Frost's age Shimmer had been as playful as any other Clan kit. In fact, she had been just that - the embodiment of a Clan kit.
As her orbs, enclosed into slits, flickered towards Ice and Yen, she caught a look of Yen's face. She had to actively struggle to keep the flaring anger and fear from rising to far. She should have killed this idiot kit before Ice even got a whiff of her scent. Shimmer's voice was frozen cold as she spoke, and you could barely hear the her usual silky tone beneath the iced over surface. "Yen, why don't I take you around the territory. Frost, why don't you come with us? Ice, I'm challenging you to get a mouse from RiverClan territory. You should be back by the time we are." She told Frost to come with her because otherwise the silvery white she-cat would surely be tempted to finish off Yen as soon as they got onto some other territory.
Ice had been looking down at his food as he ate, the Raven disappearing quickly into his relatively small mouth. He was a few bites from the end, and about to offer his friend the rest, when he heard his mother's tone. Her voice was terrifyingly cold; hearing it was somehow like being in the rain when the temperature was just barely above freezing. It was hard to understand how she could even speak in suck a way, and Ice had to try hard not to shiver. He stopped his paw, which had been slowly pushing the fresh-kill bird towards Yen, and stared at his mother. He nodded quickly, though he didn't want to go into RiverClan at all. He wanted to stay with Yen, but arguing with Shimmer was always a bad idea. "Yes, mom." In response to a sharp glare, he walked quickly out of the den, heading to RiverClan.

Frost nodded to her mother, standing up. She had caught Yen's look at Ice and Shimmer's reaction. The new she-cat was treading on thin ice, one wrong pawstep, frost was sure, would be devastating. She gave a small stretch, and turned towards Shimmer and Yen, ready to go when they were. She kept her face emotinless and uncaring.

I already know the territory. She wanted to say out loud, but held her tongue. She watched Ice take his leave but instead of showing her disappointment, she looked around in a bored manor. What’re we gonna do out there? Yen asked plainly, as if she hadn’t done anything. Which she hadn’t. She simply was testing Ice; which, if Shimmer was anything like she was explained, the lilac point would appreciate.
Ooc: Dreadfully short, I know.

"Show you the territory, like my mother said. Don't presume you already know the entire thing and by heart. That is foolish, and deadly in itself after being here a day." Frost replied tonelessly. She caught the bored look the shecat was expressing. 'Well, ' she thought sarcastically, 'i hope she is this alert when we leave. It would be just terrible if she fell down a snake hole. . .' Yen was going to be interesting to have around, whether Frost liked it or not. She was almost positive her mother would rip out the siamese's fur next time she pulled a stunt like that with Ice again. The thought nearly coaxed a grin to frost's emotionless face. Nearly.
