MountainClan Goes to the Mall

[Willowfoot]

Willowpaw tapped the spot next to her with her tail, inviting him to sit beside her. "What's an Ar-bee's?"

ooc: That was a laaaaaaaame post

[Wildstar]

(Ooc: It's the place yer mom used to work! -shot-)

[Regalpaw]

Regalpaw did as instructed, cozying into the spot beside her. His paws where sticky now. He would wash them once they found their destination. "It's an amazing two-leg place where they exchange shiny things for fresh-kill."

[Lightfur]

OoC: Oh, my uncle used to own an Arby's. =D He sold it though.

Also, sorry this is so late. I fully wrote out a five-paragraph post and it died. D< And it was basically my last chance to post until now, because this morning was my last AP exam. At last, they are over! =O Except now I missed two days of school so I have oodles of makeup work.

See if I ever take any AP classes again. D= (I will, actually, but I'll wish I didn't.)

So now here's a really lame post because it's four forty in the morning and I'm attempting to finish my makeup work for today's classes before school. (It's not happening, though. My English teacher is gonna freak at me. D= He's so bipolar.)

BiC:

Lightfur braced herself against the rocking of the subway. She had made Dawnkit stand between her and the wall of the subway, so the little kit didn't get buffeted about too much. Dawnkit, however, was not thrilled by this arrangement.

"I can't seee, Lightfur!" she moaned, wriggling about and trying to peer past fluffed-out golden fur. "This is so uncool."

Lightfur sighed. She was about to reply when Regalpaw came in, and she brightened up. "Regalpaw!"

Pearlclaw, in the meantime, was not so much riding the subway as whizzing about, leaping across from one seat back to another. When the subway had stopped suddenly she had fallen off, but being a cat of course she had landed on her feet and now bounded over to Regalpaw and her apprentice.

"Ohmigod, Regal, what did you get?" she asked excitedly. "I, like, love their Bacon and Cheddar Roastburger, there's just something about bacon that's, like, so amazingly delicious. I wonder if they'll have, like, bacon cheeseburgers at the food court at the, like, mall. That would be totally, like, awesome!"

Lightfur blinked at Pearlclaw. "Like cheeseburgers? Or actual cheeseburgers?"

Pearlclaw sniffed dismissively. "It's mall lingo. You wouldn't get it."

[Wildstar]

Falcontail checked the map and did a quick calculation. "Looks like there's only one stop left, Wildstar. Good thing, too. The next stop is usually full of Twolegs waiting to go... do Twoleg things."
The she-cat raised a brow comically, and the fire-striped tabby shrugged helplessly. "Even after travelling all over the place, I still don't know where most of the Twolegs on here go to. Too much money trying to get off and back on all the time. I used to have a pass, but I lost it."
"Pass?"
The warrior tom nodded. "Yep. It let me use the subway as much as I wanted for a whole month."

[Bluesky]

Bluesky yowled as she went skidding down the subway container thing when Sleetfoot leaped away. When it stopped suddenly, she slid back the other way. At the last second before it restarted, she hopped onto a two-legs' lap and then into the next seat where Wildstar and Falcontail were situated. "Mind if I join you?"

Mudsplatter found the fact that Wildstar had said Foxfangs and Falcontail would have beautiful kits to be hilarious, and was busy laughing and purring hysterically. "Too bad for you Flowertail is taken." She deadpanned quietly, bringing the other to a sudden stop in his laughter. Shadowchase sighed like an old man surrounded by young idiots. Which he was.

[Wildstar]

Falcontail blushed crimson underneath his fur, twitching his whiskers in embarrassment. "Ah... yes, well, this is our stop."
At that moment the great mechanical beast screeched like two hundred owls, and sent the ginger tom flying off of his seat. Wildstar held back her laughter as best she could, but soon gave in. Hopping off her seat, she accompanied Falcontail and his injured dignity to the doors.
"Best do as he says, everyone. The doors should be opening soon."

[Willowfoot]

Bramblepaw shut his laptop and leaped off, bouncing off every seat he could. When he reached the door, he jumped at it.

Of course he hit the glass face-first and slid down it like a cartoon character.

[Starlight]

Starlight stood in front of the doors, pelt bristling as she pawed nervously at the ground. The moment the doors opened, she dashed from the train and sprinted staright for the top of a tall, black thing in a corner ((it's one of those ticket machines; I've only been on a subway a couple times)) from this vantage point she watched her clanmates exiting. Something above caught her eye then; it was Galaxyfur! He clung to the top of the subway train, probably waiting for MountainClan to get off the train. He didn't have any way of knowing which stop was the right one except watching for cats, Starlight realized. "Hey, Galaxyfur! Over here, this is our stop!" She called out to her mentor, taking a step back when her yowling drew some twolegs' attention.

[Bluesky]

Bluesky rejoined Sleetfoot as they left the monster, purring at Bramblepaw.

The others followed.

((I fail. 3: ))

[Sleetfoot]

Galaxyfur caught a black blur streaking from the monster. After a second it called to him. Hea realized it was Starlight. He took a deep breath and slid from the subway, landing on his back beside it. He twitched slightly.

Sleetfoot looked back to see Fallentree waddling toward the doors. He bid Bluesky to go ahead and went back to help the elder. "Thank you, young one." Fallentree said, making it to the door just in time.

[Starlight]

Starlight hesitated for a good, long while before she reluctantly joined her clanmates again. Mouse-brained twolegs and their monsters. She would rather walk home then ride again. Speaking of which, how exactly were they going to drag a washing machine home? "Are you alright?" the young she-cat asked her mentor as she happily brushed up against him. "You had me seriously worried."

Any cat who wasn't in on the two cats' relationship would have found it disrespectful for Starlight to chastise her mentor so. However, MountainClan knew that theirs was different from the usual mentor-apprentice bond. Starlight had known no closer family than Galaxyfur (though he wasn't technically family, he had taken the black kit under his wing from the moment they met). Sometimes their relationship was more like father and daughter, and other times, because of their relatively small age gap and Galaxyfur's, well, mad tendencies, they acted just like littermates.

((I'm not sure if something like that belongs in a comedy roleplay, but here it is. . . . ))

[Sleetfoot]

**It's cool Starry**

Galaxyfur glanced up at here, his black eyes still wide with fright. Slowly he stood and walked over to his Clanmates. He gently butt his head against hers and held it there for a few moment before regaining a solid breathing pattern. "Yes, thank you, Starlight. I will live. I'm glad you all cared enough to go looking for me!" He glaired at a few of the surrounding cats.

[rosepaw]

ooc: I haven't seen this post before but I'll pretend I was there the whole time.
bic: Rosepaw jumped off the subway-thingy and saw the Mall. It was huge!
There were Twolegs running around with big bags. Some of them held things that smelled like burnt not-so-fresh-kill and were EATING them.
She thought that this was disgusting and made up her mind never to eat one.

[Willowfoot]

Willowpaw shook her head and hopped off the subway one step at a time, gazing up with mixed emotions at the mall. It was so large that she felt like it could just fall over and crush her flat, but she was exited about the stuff she would find inside of the crushy-smashy-large-mall-thing.
She pulled her mother by grabbing a paw with her tail to see if they could stop Bramblepaw, who was running to a place that said "Starbucks." They weren't sure what that meant, but there were laptops in it. That could not have been a good sign.
