Welcome to Gaia! ::

The cat stopps at the river and cautiously stepps across the log, hoping that no one would notice her.

Snowystream cautiously stepped next to a tree away from the cat.Being thin and light no cat even this one could hear her.She took in the cat first then she launched herself at the cat pinning it to the ground."What are you doing here and who are you?"she hissed in the newcomer's ear."I've got you held tight so don't move and explain yourself!"

The new cat eyed the other side of the river and her tail twitched nervously.

THe gray cats yellow eyes narrowed, her face expressionless. She sighed and explained "I come from Moonclan. My name is Rainfoot. Im just passing through." The cats tail twitched again.

lol ok

Rainfoot got up gingerly. HEr ribs were just starting to poke out from her fur, and her eyes were dull. "I suppose I dont have a choice." the cat sitghed and settled down. "Well, Moonclan has only been in existance for a few moons. At least here it has...we recently moved here to escape our hardships in the mountains. We are trying to adapt to all the new hunting techniuqes but its not going well. Our old leader, Graystar, died recently and our new leader is doing a poor job of leading the clan...." she paused "I dont know how much I just told you, but something tells me I might get in trouble for it." her yellow eyes suddenly looked frightened.

Rainfoot's eyes widened. A stranger offer her fresh-kill to me? She was deeply thankful and graciously ate the herbs and mouse. As she bit into the mouse, she was amazed on how plump and well fed it was, back at her clan there were never mice this juicy. Rainfoot savored every bite. When she was done she cleaned her face and stood, paitiently waiting for her new aquaintince to bring her back to her camp. She was not going to argue with a cat who graceously gave her fresh-kill.

Meanwhile...

A group of bedraggled cats all stood around a big stone. Their heads were bent, and thier eyes listliss. One cat paced throught them. He was the strongest, and most well fed in the clan. Tornstar was the leader of Moonclan. He walked amongst the other cats and softly whispered to himself. " twelve, thirteen-" he stopped and swung his great head from side to side, "Who's missing? Skyheart!" he called. From out of a small cluster of queens came a light gray tom. He was probably the thinnist cat of them all, his fur hung matted along is body and his ribs were distinctly visable under his dull coat. "Yes, Tornstar?" he rasped. "Someone is missing. THe patrol I sent out, who was taht again?" Tornstar replied, bored. Skyheart was appalled, the leader couldn't even remember the name of the cat he sent out on a patroll, not to mention he sent her out alone. "It was Rainfoot." the light gray cat replied. "yes." Tornstar replied. "Go and fetch her." Dkyheart opened his mouth to point out that it was the leaders job to keep track of all the cats, not his but then thought better of it, dipped his head, and trotted off in the direction of the forest.
