It had been several moons since Cobalt had left home, if that was what the ever-changing places his shrinking family had decided to stop could be called. He still had no regrets. Stretching luxoriously, the young cat rose from the patch of straw where he'd spent the night and padded across one of the rafters in the barn. He sat in the middle of one and began licking a paw, listening with half an ear to the rustling of small prey in the walls and the straw.

Zephyr padded into the barn slowly glancing back and sat down to wait for Deathwind. His white bengal coat shown in the sun that glittered in from the door.
Deathwind limped in his half orange faced scowled in disgustion. "Stupid sun it makes it too hot exspecially with black fur!" he growled and sat down beside Zephyr.

Cobalt glanced down from the rafters at the sound of cats' voices. Muttering softly to himself about never being left alone, he stalked back along the rafters to the hayloft. The gray cat balanced himself for a moment, smiled mischeviously, then shot forward, landing in the hay with an audible poof.

Deathwind and Zephyr span around together and glared at the young loner. They stalked forward towards him claws unsheathed just in case.

Cobalt stuck his head out of the piles of hay, eyes glittering in amusement. Holding his tail high, he leapt carefully down from the hayloft to the floor of the barn to meet the cats who were advancing on him. "Morning," he meowed pleasantly, then continued in the same tone, "What's with that look? Trying to see through my head?"

Deathwind tried to lunge at the young loner but Zephyr held him back. "Morning" Zephyr grumbled.

Cobalt smirked at the difference between the cats' reactions and sat calmly on the floor several foxlengths from them. "So, what brings you to the barn on this wonderful morning in Greenleaf?"

"Wonderful why this morning is nothing but a load of....mrmphh" Deathwind meowed Zephyr had stuck his tail in the toms mouth before he could say the last word. " Were coming to get out of the forest" Zephyr meowed.

Cobalt nodded steadily and stood, pacing casually along the floor. "Ah...that's interesting. I never go into the forest anymore...too many rogues prowling around," he said disgustedly, "them and their lovely little army." Cobalt snorted, watching the other cats carefully out of the corner of his eye in case he had to run. He knew he was taking a gamble on the strangers' allegiances, but they didn't seem like the kind of cats Touslepelt had attempted to recruit.

Zephyr chuckled "Not this forest they dont what I meant is our territory" he meowed. His voice wasnt evil but his eyes still glinted with a bit of evil. Deathwind wacked Zephyr on the ear "I was going to say mouse dung!" he hissed. Deathwind knew Zephyr realized he was just teasing.

Cobalt let out a silent sigh in relief. They were just normal loners. Good. "Your territory? And they leave you alone there?" half of his mouth quirked up in a wry smile. "Now I'm jealous."

The rexan she-cat padded into the barn, her paws daintily crunched scattered straw littered on the floor. Child, you have a knack for coming here. Chai's voice cracked, cuffing a paw around her son's head. Her tail lashed, as her pale yellow eyes burned menacingly into Zephyr and Deathwind's pelts.

ooc- Oh, btw, I don't know how much time has passed in the game, but I got really bored of Cobalt being a kit and decided he was going to grow up. So he's like...ten moons old now and has a completely different attitude.
IC- Cobalt's eyes narrowed as Chai entered, and he wondered if she had heard anything he'd said. "Oh...hello Mother," he meowed in exactly the same tone she had used, tensing more than just a bit. "What are you doing here? I haven't seen you in moons." Cobalt ducked away from Chai's paw, resisting the urge to hiss.

I've been in the forest, prowling around. She pondered, sitting and wrapping her tail around her forepaws. Chai hadn't seen her son in a long time, but it wasn't like she purposely avoided him. The black she-cat still eyed the other two suspiciously, half-looking at Cobalt and half-looking at the two loners.
Ooc: By the by, Chai was i. that 'army'. And she helped drive ShadowClan out.

Cobalt paled very slightly beneath his fur as Chai repeated the words he'd said a moment before, but he mentally shook it off and sat again, still outwardly calm. There was a chance it was just coincidence, that she hadn't heard him talking about the army. A small chance. In the back of his mind, Cobalt wondered what the other loners were thinking of this exchange. "That's nice," he meowed, searching through his mind for the quickest way out of the barn.
ooc- Yeah, I saw her name on the list. *nods* That's why Cobalt's on his own. Heh...and that's why he's so nervous.
