"Its my responsibillity to be present at any and all diplomatic meetings" Snowstar mewed. "Surely you knew that, after our trip to Novaclan" He added with a chuckle. "Ill be glad to summon Cloudhaze. Coldeyes can take care of anything that comes up while we're gone" He growled, nodding as the shimmering rays of sunshine climbed above the horizon...

[The Kingpin]

"Well then, let's get moving. If there isn't a problem, i'd like Lightstorm and Swift to accompany us" growled the Leader. as he turned, he caught sight of Nightclaw, who froze. "Ah. Nightclaw. interesting timing. we're about to head off" growled Wraith. "In that case i won't keep you. I wish you luck with Earthclan though...after what Novaclan said, i'm worried about hostility. sounds like they outright hate Starclan...wouldn't be surprised if they attack on sight" meowed Nightclaw. Wraith shook his head. "They won't risk starting a war so soon...not without at least knowing whether or not we think the same. beliefs aside, war is a costly thing, and they already see Novaclan as a threat. They'd worry about being hit from two fronts if they started a war with us.....though there's no guarantee they'll be friendly" growled Wraith. Nightclaw nodded, understanding his father's point. turning to Coldeyes, he added "Coldeyes, i'm going on the Patrol. Anyone you want me to inform to go?". Wraith meanwhile, walked off, heading for the Camp entrance to wait for the others...

[C S]

Coldeyes, who had been sitting beside Snowstar growled "Well if you'd be willing to inform Daggertooth and his siblings, Riverstone and Mudswirl, then Ill be waiting at the clan entrance to see you off" He gave the tom a thoughtful look. He had been committed to patrol duty for a while. Perhaps he would become group leader when the deputy couldnt accompany the patrols, along side Daggertooth. After the short pause, Coldeyes left to gather Lightstorm and Swift

Snowstar trotted off back to camp, heading over to the medicene cat's den...

[The Kingpin]

Nightclaw nodded, turning away, heading for the Warrior's Den. passing by Fogcloud, he nodded in greeting, and continued, stopping at the den and poking his head in. "Mudswirl, Riverstone. wake Daggertooth and head for the Camp entrance. Patrol" he hissed quietly, trying to avoid waking the rest of the Warriors so soon...

[Hopeflower]

Lightstorm was curled up comfortably in the den, but wasn't really sleeping. He'd been woken by Mudswirl's and Riverstone's conversation, and a storm of bittersweet memories was clouding his mind. He curled the tip of his fluffy tail over his nose, wondering if he should go on pretending to sleep or get up.

Swift, though, was stretched out beside the entrance to the warriors' den. Giving one paw a lick, he started grooming his ears, eyes half-closed. His stomach gave a growl, reminding him he hadn't eaten yet, but he decided to wait and see if he wasn't needed before taking something from the fresh-kill pile. The chill in the air made his whiskers quiver. Leaf-fall, it seemed, was about ready to give way to leaf-bare. Prey would get scarcer, and he just hoped that wouldn't tempt the already aggressive rogues to stray into StormClan territory for a meal. It was going to be hard enough to support themselves without worrying about prey-stealers, not to mention the threat of illness that leaf-bare always brought.

The two she nodded and got to their paws, walking over to the black pelted tom and nudging him awake with their noses. "Dawn patrol" Riverstone mewed before she and Mudswirl made their way to the den's entrace. Daggertooth got up, moving over to Obsidian and woke him up also. "Patrol" He mewed to his brother, who in turn swatted his sisters with his tail, tickling their noses until they woke up. "Patrol time" He mewed as he got to his feet. Once the stiffness brought on by sleep was gone in the cats, they moved out aswell.

"Swift" Coldeyes mewed as he walked up to the former loner. "Get Lightstorm and head over to Shadowsoul and Snowstar. They're leaving for Earthclan and want you and Lightstorm to accompany them"

Meanwhile, Snowstar walked back to Wraith's side, sitting down, Cloudhaze with him, waiting for the others to arrive...

[Hopeflower]

Swift's ears pricked in surprise, but he nodded and got to his paws. The black tom slipped into the den and approached Lightstorm, careful not to step on or trip over the other sleeping cats. He woke the long-haired white tom by trailing the tip of his tail over the bridge of his muzzle. "Up you get, lazypaws," the former loner meowed, nudging his denmate with a paw to get him moving. Lightstorm raised his head and let out an enormous yawn. "We're not due for a patrol, are we?" he asked, sitting up and giving himself a brisk shake. "Kind of," Swift replied. "Shadowsoul wants us to go with him and Snowstar on a trip to EarthClan." The older cat shot him a startled, questioning glance, to which Swift offered a shrug. He wasn't sure why the leaders wanted them either. The former loner turned and led Lightstorm out of the den, making straight for Shadowsoul and Snowstar.

[The Kingpin]

Nightclaw headed for the camp entrance to meet Coldeyes, alongside the other patrol cats, noting Swift and Lightstorm following, as well as the sight of his father waiting expectantly at the camp entrance. "We're ready, Coldeyes" meowed Nightclaw as he reached the Deputy. Wraith stood as Lightstorm and Swift arrived, growling "Let's get moving. i want to try and get this overwith before Sunhigh". the Leader headed onwards out of the camp, leaving Coldeyes to deal with the patrol...

[C S]

"Alright" Coldeyes mewed, nodding his head to the cats. "Take care, Daggertooth. If you find any rogue, use what I taught you" The deputy growled. He was the black tom's mentor during his days as an apprentice. Daggertooth nodded, taking note of the fact Coldeyes wasnt accompanying them, before leading the troop out of camp...

Snowstar and Cloudhaze walked out along side Wraith. Snowstar mewed "Depends on the cats, Wraith. Just like us when the new clans appeared, these cats seem ready to stand by their beliefs"

[The Kingpin]

"And i have no intention of fighting them about it" responded Wraith simply. "We're going there to negotiate. to introduce ourselves and see what kind of cats we're dealing with. if we're lucky, they'll be reasonable and we'll be able to discuss things without the use of aggression. If not...well, we'll just have to leave them to their own devices and deal with Novaclan alone" he explained...


Nightclaw headed on with the patrol, is senses on full alert from the moment he set foot outside the camp...

[C S]

"Of course" Snowstar mewed. If Earthclan didnt take interest in an alliance with Stormclan...maybe simple tolerance would be just as good.

[Hopeflower]

"Why bring us along, though?" Swift asked, cocking his head. "Not that I'm not curious about EarthClan and honored to be allowed to come, but...shouldn't this be a meeting strictly between leaders?" Lightstorm glanced from the black tom to his father, wondering exactly the same things.

[C S]

"If they prove hostile, then we'd like a few more sets of claws, no?" Snowstar mewed. "Cloudhaze is closer to Starclan than all of us, so she comes as a guide"

[Hopeflower]

"I see," Swift meowed, nodding. It was a smart move.

[The Kingpin]

a while later, Wraith led the group out of the Clan borders, across the river over the thunderpath, making sure to move along the very edge, though at this time of year the thunderpath was mostly quiet. as soon as they had passed the river he left the thunderpath, heading forwards towards the twolegplace up ahead...

[Hopeflower]

Lightstorm instinctively tensed as they drew closer to the Twolegplace, the memory of being trapped by the vile creatures and living as a kittypet for a while surfacing. He noticed Swift was more at ease. The black tom had been born in a Twolegplace, Lightstorm suddenly remembered, though not necessarily this one. Making his way through the mess of Twoleg dens and Thunderpaths was probably going to be almost second-nature to the former rogue.

[The Kingpin]

Before long, Wraith found himself at what was undoubtedly the Earthclan border. blends of Riverclan and Windclan, among other scents, could be detected. they had passed the twolegplace a while back, Wraith taking a moment as they passed to check for the scent of mice, as well as the scent of death, in the twolegplace he had shown Demontalon a while back, and had found much of the former, but none of the latter, confirming the twolegs had stopped poisoning them. that also meant that other cats had undoubtedly picked up on this. could this be one of the out of territory food sources for Earthclan? or maybe the source of energy that allowed the Rogues to remain so powerful that they could boldly cross the Clan cats as they seemed to be doing? Wraith couldn't tell, but set the matter aside for now. standing before the Earthclan border, the Leader sat. If Earthclan were anywhere near the standard he had grown to expect off Riverclan and Windclan, there would likely be a patrol approaching soon. best to give them a reason to trust them, than to be caught encroaching on their territory uninvited...

[slashmaster101]

AdderFang padded out of the nursery and laid out in the sun wanting to do something to help the clan to try and be accepted but he couldn't think of anything accept hunting and the clan cats probabley wouldn't let him and Flame leave to hunt in the first place.

[Hopeflower]

Swift sat down, wrapping his tail over his paws and starting to scan his environment for signs of life. His head turned in a slow, sweeping arc, ears twitching at distant sounds that showed the forest was coming to life. A bird somewhere in the distance began singing its morning song and was soon answered by another. Small scuffling noises betrayed the precense of the resident woodland creatures. The rogue-born tom barely spared a twitch of the ear, his head turning back for another scan of their immediate area.

[TyrannoTitan]

A large dark brown, long-furred tom stepped out near the seated cat, a smirk on its face. "Well well well...Afrostar knew this day would come...the clans have decided to encroach upon our territory." he growled, though he continued to smirk. Staring at the cat for a moment, he laughed. "And the glorious leader Shadowsoul, no less! We've got quite a catch, brothers and sisters!" he continued, yowling the last bit to the foliage behind him, the rustling of the plants indicating their approach...
