Poppyheart padded along toward fourtrees. She and Cheetahspirit were hunting there. She looked behind her to check if she was still behind her.

Cheetahspirit bounded out of the bushes after Poppyheart. Then she remembered they were trying to hunt and she slowed down to scent the air. Bouncing around like she was doing certainly wasn't going to attract any prey. But almost at once she caught the smell of rabbit on the breeze. It was coming from behind a few bushes up ahead. "Mmmm..." She thought of the tasty rabbit and swiped her tongue around her muzzle as if she could already taste it.
Then she motioned with her tail for silence in case Poppyheart hadn't scented the prey, and crouched down and crept toward the shrubs. They gave a small shake and Cheetahspirit knew precisely that the rabbit was in there hiding. She wriggled her rump in the air and then sprang for the bush. The rabbit appeared as it flew out of the bush in an attempt at freedom. But as soon as Cheetahspirit's paws touched the ground she was spinning her direction and sprinting after the rabbit.
It was running all out with its white bob-tail almost flat to the ground. Soon Cheetahspirit was close enough and she kicked off the earth with her back claws, and soared toward the rabbit. Her front paws caught it and she quickly brought her head down to give it a swift bite to its neck. It's struggles grew weak and then stopped. She lifted it and carried it proudly back to where Poppyheart was.

Poppyheart nodded her head at the kill. "That was terrific hunting." Poppyheart praised. Poppyheart lifted her muzzle to scent the air for any more prey. She could smell a mouse in the brush nearby. She quickly dropped into a crouch and stalked it keeping all her weight in her hunches. Poppyheart quickly pounced on it and killed in in one swift blow to the head. She picked in up and brought it over to Cheetahspirit.

The black she-cat breathed in the scent of the fresh-kill that had been caught and purred. She wasn't exactly hungry at the moment, but smelling it almost made her not care. Besides, in fine weather like this, you didn't have to worry so much about their not being enough. The prey loved weather like this. "Great catch," She meowed to Poppyheart. "It was like the mouse didn't even know you were there!"
Then Cheetahspirit lifted her nose and crept after the scent of squirrel, her pawsteps light and quick.

Poppyheart flicked her tail in delight at the praise and quietly padded off following another scent she had picked up.

Whitestripe sat facing the border near fourtrees when a different scent flared up his nose squirrel mixed with...cat! He spun around letting the squirrel fly up the tree near him as two cats came out of the trees...his hackles began to rise. He wondered whether the truce still stuck in place after Rowanstar started the battle a few gatherings ago...

Cheetahspirit glared at the cat standing in front of her after she saw her prey scramble up a tree. "You've just ruined my chances of catching that squirrel!" She growled hotly with an angry swish of her tail. Then she peered curiously at the tom as her nose filled with the scent of WindClan. "Who are you anyway?"
The warrior was gray with an odd white stripe running down his middle. Being such a new warrior, she wasn't so used to meeting other Clan cats.

*Me? I'm Whitestripe I'm sure you can tell..It's pretty obvious ! *He snorted scornfully not sure what to make of the new cat. *So who is this and even more who are you?*

Poppyheart stepped up to the new cat. "I am Poppyheart." she said to the Whitestripe. His smell of Windclan floated up her nose. "What are you doing here?" she questioned.

"Cheetahspirit." Cheetahspirit stated, lifting her chin and staying where she was, though Poppyheart moved forward. "Yes, what are you doing?" She asked, repeating her hunting partner's question. Her long silver-striped tail flicked back and forth, betraying her curiousity, and her eyes glinted. This 'Whitestripe' looked like a worthy opponent. But the black and silver she-cat didn't always care for how a cat looked. It was largely what went through their mind that made up who they were. She wondered what type of cat Whitestripe was and cocked her head to one side as she considered the tom.

* Ah but if I tell you that you wouldn't understand lets but it this way...thinking.* Whitestripe inclined his head toards Cheetahspirit, he had an idea of what she was doing, she was sizing him up, thinking of what he was like. *So I've answered your question now, you awnser mine...what are the chances of meeting two clan cats out here? Both of the same clan?* He was quizzing them trying to tell what they were like unfortuntely his eyes betrayed him he had a cunning quizical look about him. He then turned towards Poppyheart and noticed they were both newish warriors. *So* He kept talking *Are you's both new warriors or are you apprentices?* He asked sizing them up just incase things went the wrong way, although he hoped he was wrong to size them up, even if they were both apprentices what was the chances of taking on two at once let alone two warriors?

Cheetahspirit saw his curious expression and she purred silently to herself. He seemed slightly unsure. Slightly. She could tell by the way he spoke calmly, he wouldn't back down if a fight happened to occur.
As much as her pride wanted her to say she was a warrior and not an apprentice, she had to be sure it wouldn't be giving anything away. Why was he so interested? She narrowed her eyes and this time, did take a step forward, fur bristling ever so slightly. "I am a warrior of ThunderClan," She growled deciding there could be no harm in revealing whether she was a warrior or not. "And obviously the chances of finding two clan cats out here are pretty high because here we are." Her muscles were tense and she was prepared if the worst were to happen, but she was level-headed. Her paws might be itching for a fight as they always were, but she kept as calm as the WindClan cat in front of her.
"Any particular reason you are...thinking so near the ThunderClan border?" She wasn't sure she believed his saying he was just thinking. And she resented the fact that he had said she and Poppyheart wouldn't understand what he really was doing. Plus, she really had no right to ask what he was doing, but she was too curious for her own good and she was suspicious.

*So if you are a warrior of the brave Thunderclanwhat may i ask you are you both doing on Non territory hunting? Fine warrior of Thunderclan as you clearly stated?* There was humour in his voice , he didn't want to give away why he was thinking so close to the Thunderclan border and he didn't really want a fight with these cats...not at the moment.
*And why am i so near the thunderclan border you ask? Why it is just simply a coincedince.*

Cheetahspirit made a disbelieving noise in her throat as she heard his explanation. But she didn't say anything. "I wasn't hunting on non territory, actually. I WAS hunting over there," She flicked her tail back the way she had come with Poppyheart. "I saw a squirrel, i chased it, YOU scared it, and it ran up a tree. There. That's why." She growled answering his question before she came back with her's. "And you just decided to come stroll along ThunderClan's border? Right. But I suppose you weren't going to tell me the real reason anyway, were you?" She meowed. She couldn't stop the note of disdain from entering her voice. But she was actually upset. Her curiosity would never be settled. She hated it when that happened. Get all worked up over something, and then you never figure out why.

*But if i tell you that you would tell your clan...and don't worry I know what your thinking and as far as im aware we aren't planning an attack on Thunderclan so don't worry...* He licked his fur and started again *I am simply walking past here when i heard you two lumoxs coming honestly I bet My mate Autumnflower heard that back at camp...*
