OOC: Feel free to have Lunar be offended ^^ And you know how the google ads at the bottom have something to do with what's on the page? There was one for a plumber's apprenticeship!

[STREAMY ?!]

ooc: yeah, I know! It's so funny ;D


Lunarpelt narrowed his eyes. What was wrong with this cat? He thought he was the best, and ignored Lunarpelt as if he was a bush. He spoke icily. Yes, Shadowstorm, I will not interfere with Leopardpaw's training. I will leave you two be. Not, he thought to himself. You mousebrain.

Lunarpelt heard another sound. His ears pricked. Prey. Finally, something to keep his mind off that filthy cat. He stalked the chaffinch lightly, which was pecking for food on the ground, and pounced, killing the creature mercifully with one swift bite from his sharp teeth and strong jaws. He sat, and bit in, the taste flooding his mouth. He wasn't on a hunting patrol, so there was no problem with eating before he hunted.

After finishing his meal, Lunarpelt got up, muscles rippling, and looked around. There were Leopardpaw and her traitorous mentor, training. He looked the other way and saw a squirrel scrabbling for nuts at the base of a tree. He dropped into the hunting crouch, stalked the animal, and killed it with one blow of his powerful paw. He dropped the fresh-kill and scraped dirt over it. Minutes later, he'd caught a few more things for the Clan to eat: A mouse, a vole, two more birds, and another squirrel.

ooc: That'll help with my writing my English essay...language and word choice, you know. ;D

Shadowstorm was surprised at the coldness of his tone, and had to fight back a scathing response. Picking a fight with this cat would get him nowhere, no matter how unreasonable he was being. Before he could say a thing, Lunarpelt was off hunting. Shadowstorm watched as he caught a chaffinch and snapped it up. He turned away to watch Leopardpaw, his face a mask of disapproval. Technically he was not breaking the warrior code, but he certainly didn't have medicine cat orders to eat it. He ignored him pointedly as he continued to hunt. "Go ahead, Leopardpaw," he said softly, mostly to stop himself from snapping at Lunarpelt.

A quiet hiss left Leopardpaw's vocals as Lunarpelt replied in the tone he did. This was too much! She laid her ears flat, fighting back a comment as she looked between the two toms. Relief washed over her when Lunarpelt slunk off and she turned back to Shadowstorm, dipping her head before standing again. She spread open her jaws wide, the mouth-watering scent of mouse and squirrel hitting her scent glands. Within moments she had her body low to the ground, ears perked as she looked in all directions. She stayed there, silent, for a few moments to watch a medium-sized boulder near the base of a tree. The heavy scent of squirrel laid in there, now she waited for the creature to show itself. Patience was something she had learned over the moons, and patience she had. The nose of the tiny creatures came first, then its body followed along. It sniffed around, searching for fallen acorns from one of the oaks. She got ready to spring, body falling short when the body launched forward and caught the creature in its massive jaws. A hiss of pure annoyance left her and she bared her teeth, whirling around and stalking sourly away from Lunarpelt and her stolen prey.

It didn't take long for her to find another scent, a mouse scuffling under some bracken. She looked over her shoulder to make sure Lunarpelt was a fair distance away before lowering herself down, pelt blending in rather well with the roots and dirts that loitered the forest floor. Pawstep by pawstep, she brought herself closer, silently throwing herself through the air. At that moment the small brown creature looked up, but it was too late. It started a squeak in her jaws, but it was cut off as she closed down her jaws. It went limp in her jaws, and she proudly returned to Shadowstorm, dropping it at his paws and dipping her head.

[STREAMY ?!]

Lunarpelt watched with pride in his orbs, his gaze following Leopardpaw as she dropped the mouse in front of Shadowstorm. He didn't want to approach, because Shadowstorm would probably tell him to leave them alone, and he didn't feel like getting up, anyway. So Lunarpelt put his head down, and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

Lunarpelt was in the middle of camp. He spotted Leopardpaw by the fresh-kill pile. Hey, Leopardpaw, how are you?
Nothing. The she-cat ignored him, eating a mouse.
Leopardpaw?
Silence. He padded up to her and prodded her gently. She whipped around, anger in her eyes. What's wrong?
I hate you! I hate you! You killed him! You killed Firestorm!

Lunarpelt woke up, his pelt sweating. He panted and looked wildly around, realizing that his dream was just that--a dream. His breathing became more subtle and he was no longer panting. What had that meant? He hadn't killed Firestorm...but had he wanted to? Lunarpelt realized that that was a question he couldn't answer. He just sat up and mewed to the two cats, Be right back. The black tom padded behind a bush and sat, his mind spinning. Did Leopardpaw really hate him? Lunarpelt shook his head. Of course not! He got up and returned to watching Shadowstorm and Leopardpaw without really seeing them, his mind glazed over.


ooc: is that pping? 'Cause it's a dream, not real.... Hope it's not >.< If it is....just tell me, please. OR you can erase half my post. Lol

[//Cindy// l u n a]

OOC: it's his brain making up the dream... so it's not pping.

[STREAMY ?!]

ooc: kk whew ;D

[icefang]

OOC: he fell asleep... ^^

IC: Shadowstorm watched Leopardpaw hunt, feeling his annoyance ebb away a bit as she fell into a perfectly balanced hunter's crouch. She's smart, he thought as he watched her sniff at the acorns. She waited silently for her prey to come to her, and leapt at it, but Lunarpelt got to it first. But she soon caught a mouse and brought it to him. "That was excellent," he said. "I'll leave hunting alone, you've mastered that. Now eat that, and keep it up. Tomorrow we'll fight." He smiled warmly at her and then turned to catch a chaffinch of his own. He leaned down to eat it, but he knew he didn't need it, so he scraped some dirt over it and turned to continue, but was interrupted by Lunarpelt saying he'd be right back. Shadowstorm nodded wordlessly and proceeded to catch another mouse.

OOC: mm... not so good... oh well

[STREAMY ?!]

Lunarpelt watched Shadowstorm with round golden orbs, his eyes following every move as the other tom caught a chaffinch. He wasn't actually all that bad...Lunarpelt had to give him props for that. But still...he was so...something was just weird about him. Lunarpelt looked at Leopardpaw. How he loved her...he wished she knew. He'd have to tell her sometime...maybe the next day. Or later. His glance shifted back at Shadowstorm, and watched him catch another piece of prey--a mouse this time.

ooc: I did worse than you, stormy
