Part 71

                                    

                                          
Splash
"Sure," He meowed, "I don't see a problem with it." They has made it to the clearing. Splash looked up into the sky. Clouds could be seen peeking out from behind the trees.
                          
Blazeheart
Blazeheart nodded at Sparrowsky. "You're right." Rubbleclaw nodded in agreement, ear flicking. She continued to walk and glanced up at the sky, which was greying over.
                          
Beetlepaw
Beetlepaw cursed. She hadn't twisted. He kicked up with his hind legs, scrabbling to push her off of him.
                          
Sparrowsky
"What do you think we'll see?" Sparrowsky asked Rubbleclaw. It would be interesting to see what would happen if they ran into an opposing cat, but it would be best if they didn't.
                          
Fish
Fish picked a nice spot that would keep her dry beside the den and dug out a small cove. She used the dirt to outline to nest and the feline curled up in it to see if she fit
                          
Jaypaw
Jaypaw glared at him and she leapt forward, scoring her claws along his nose, ear and sides
                          
Ash
Ash padded over to Splash. "You came back quickly," he meowed. "Did anything bad happen?"
                          
Fish
Fish had only managed to snatch one leaf on the way back. She rubbed it against the enflamed area of her leg and sighed
                          
Splash
"Clan patrol. The some ones from yesterday," Splash stuck out his tongue, "But, we did manage to stay another quarter or a moon." The look of Ash's face told Splash to go on, "We'll, I told them about Duck and Fish being injured, and we were put off the hook for the time being."
                          
Fish
Fish growled lightly as she stretched out her limbs. Pain harnessed the wound and encased her entire body when she moved
                          
Ash
Ash sighed with relief like Splash had done. At least that gave Duckwing some time to heal. He looked over to Fish, "She'll be staying there?"
                          
Fish
The rogue licked down her chest fur and grunted as she pulled her leg back in. She rested her chin on the rims of her dirt nest
                          
Splash
Splash nodded, "She doesn't mind sleeping out in the open. Even if it rains." He looked back up at the sky. The clouds had further spread over the trees. The smell of rain had become stronger.
                          
Fish
Fish scented the air and her eyes lit up but she started to shield the wound. She gazed around and sighed
                          
Ash
"Alright, then," Ash meowed. He watched Fish. She had already got herself settled in. "I suggest we get some rest. It's been a hectic day and I don't think I'd survive the whole day without sleep."
                          
Fish
The rogue licked her pad and rubbed it against the raw half of her face. She used her tail to help out too
                          
Splash
"Well, sweet dreams then," Splash meowed as Ash disappeared into the den. He thought about getting sleep too, but instead he walked over and sat beside Fish.
                          
Fish
She looked at the tom and sat up "Don't you want to get some sleep too?"
                          
Splash
"I can wait till night fall," Splash meowed, licking his chest. "Besides, if I sleep now I probably won't get any sleep tonight."
                          
Fish
Fish shrugged "I guess you have a point."
                          
Splash
Splash nodded, "Yeah." He didn't know how else to drive the conversation. It was pretty easy to talk to Ash, since they had similar minds and knew each other the longest. It was pretty hard talking to another cat.
                          
Fish
"So. How long have you three been out here?"
                          
Splash
"Since forever," Splash meowed, "I forget if we were born here or we came here when we were young. Honestly, so much has happened during our time here."
