Green-Leaf

[Bluesky]

(Okay, we need another roleplay! I know it might not quite be Summer yet, but it's close enough. And besides, all the other rps are pretty much over by now...)

Bluesky stretched out her legs, smacking her mouth. "Wonder if anyone else is up..." She murmured, glancing around. She noticed the others sleeping around her, and decided to lat them stay. She pushed her way out of the den and looked at the sky. It was just starting to brighten, and dew dripped from the leaves. "Mmmm..." She started padding towards the entrance. "Perfect day." She picked up the pace, leaping easily over the rocks outside the camp, and paused at the top. Gray clouds were beginning to be outlined in the sky, and the air was damper up here. She shrugged and bounded into the forest. She sped down the side of the mountain, relishing the feeling of freedom, of speed. Her body worked perfectly together, stretching and bunching effortlessly. The familiar path stretched out before her, and her paws slipped easily into her own pawsteps. Soon, though, she had to slow. I should at least catch something... She thought. Maybe I'll find some rabbits that have run! She loved the taste of wind that she could detect on her tongue when she ate a rabbit that had recently been running, it was fairly exhilarating. She crouched low and stalked forward, tasting the air for prey-scent.

(Now...POST, FELLOW CATS! You know you want to. :3)

[Sleetfoot]

Out of nowhere a lanky white body flew into Bluesky's, nocking her over. The white cat rolled around with Bluesky on the hard rocky floor of the mountain terrain. Then he stopped and stood up. His happy laugh rang through the mountains. "Haha. Some warrior ready for anything!" Despite his taunting tone, the crystal blue eyes where full of warmth as he smiled down at the cat he loved. Sleetfoot had only a second's hesitation as he jumped on her again.

[Bluesky]

Bluesky yelped loudly as she rammed into a solid patch of snow. Wait...no, that would be a Sleetfoot, not snow. She purred, but was cut off as he tackled her. She batted at him with her paws, trying to twist herself away. She used her back paws to find a hold, and shoved. She felt herself propelled briefly, then twisted around to catch herself before she slammed butt-first into the ground. Her front paws brushed the grass, reaching as far as they would go.

((Does this make any sense? >>))

[Sleetfoot]

**haha yup**

He twined his tail with hers as he pushed her down into the ground. He lowered his nose to butt up against hers as he grinned. He stood up and walked a few tail lengths away and sat on a rock, happily grooming his ears.

[Bluesky]

(Kay,good. ><;

Bluesky purred loudly, then got up as well. She opened her mouth slightly to taste the air, and caught a faint scent of mouse. "What do you say, we hunt for a bit, and surprise the sleepy-heads back at camp with breakfast?" She asked, twitching her whiskers mischievously.

(Hurr...-brainblock- Dx

Do Warriors say breakfast?! o-o')

[Sleetfoot]

**Um, not that I know of**

He smiled and jumped from the rock, landing gracefully at her side. He pointed forward with his tail. "After you."

[Bluesky]

(Oh well... )

Bluesky raised her tail high and brushed past Sleetfoot, then crouched down as she slipped into the long grass. She crouched low and placed her paws slowly, one in front of another. She opened her mouth slightly to let the air touch her scent glands. She sifted through the many scents. searching for one of prey. Bingo! She froze, pinpointing a mouse. Then she leaped forward, and slammed her paws down on an unsuspecting mouse. She turned and looked at Sleetfoot, feeling smug.

[Sleetfoot]

He watched her with a glint of happiness i his eyes. She was his, and no cat could take that away. When she stood back up, a mouse's tail caught in her claw, he grinned. Shaking his butt slightly, he took a great leap into the air, coming down hard on a bluejay hiding in a bush.

[naturesong]

Naturesong glanced around, hoping no one was there to see her. She was practicing her hunting skill, and so far she hadn't been doing very well. She'd been out since the middle of the night and so far had only a tiny, dieing mouse and a starling that was mostly feathers. "Why are you doing this to me, StarClan?" she asked the sky, hissing in annoyance. Suddenly she heard Sleetfoot and Bluesky. She hid behind a rock and stretched out. Her overworked limbs ached painfully, and Naturesong was shocked to realize that her limbs had actually not been paining her until now.

[Bluesky]

Bluesky purred and smacked Sleetfoot's rump with her tail. "Like to wiggle rear at me before you pounce, eh?" She poked his ear with her paw, then turned to the prey they had just caught. She pushed them together and busied herself in scraping the ground over them.

[Sleetfoot]

"Oh cummon! You know you like it!" a soft smile fell on his muzzle as he watched her bury the prey. His ear twitched slightly. He had heard movement. Too big for prey. Either there was an eagle nearby or a cat. He padded forward, the smile fading from his snout, his eyes burning with curiosity. A few seconds later he sniffed and the smile returned. He could tell she was hiding and he could smell prey. Rather than call her out, he decided to leave the new medic apprentice to her hunting practice. She would come out if she wanted. He padded back to Bluesky.

[Willowfoot]

Willowkit started to shift slowly out of her slumber, until the faintest trace of sunlight through the roof of the den reached her eyes. She stretched, her gray fur dappled by the streams of light. She took a deep breath of all the smells in the air. It was a wonderful day. "I must be the first one up," she mumbled. Looking around the den, she noticed that everyone else was asleep. Slowly, Willowkit slunk out of the nursery.
Her wide gray eyes took in the empty clearing. The Tallspire was a marvelous sight, The shadows at the base contrasting heavily with the almost-white light shining from the top.
This was Willowkit's first greenleaf. She realized quickly why it was called that, noticing the grass between enormous slabs of rock. She took a peek into the warriors' den. After a quick headcount, she noticed that three cats were missing. She couldn't see Sleetfoot (Bramblekit would be sad about that), but couldn't put her paw on who else had gone hunting.
She padded to the base of the Tallspire and began licking her fur. She would be of six moons in a short time, and she desperately hoped that she would be an apprentice soon. After a short bath, Willowkit walked back into the nursery to go wake up Bramblekit.

---

The little brown tabby was curled up next to his mother when he felt a paw gently prod him. He stretched his neck so he could get an upside-down look at whoever was waking him up, quickly recognizing his sister.
"Morning, Bramblekit," she said cheerfully, "Get up. It's a beautiful day."
He obeyed, stretching out before standing. He realized that Willowkit's fur was already groomed. She must have been up earlier.
"Is anyone else up?" Bramblekit asked, licking his own tabby fur.
His sister smiled. "Some of the warriors went out hunting."
"Good. I can get something to eat. I'm starving!"
"You're always starving!" Willowkit replied, but the gleam in her eyes was friendly.
"That's why he's so big." An older brown tabby with Willowkit's gray eyes looked at them from where she lay. "He has such a big appetite." Apparently she had only been dozing.
"Morning, mom!" Bramblekit said with a smile before licking his back.
Flowertail smiled. "To be quite honest, that fresh-kill is sounding good to me. Let's go wait for them." After a quick stretch, she led her kits outside the nursery.

[Bluesky]

Bluesky playfully poked Sleetfoot again. "What?" She mewed curiously as he padded away. She cocked her head to the side as he came back. "What didja see, hm?" She crouched down and reached up to bat at his ears. If he won't tell me, She thought miscieviously. I'll just annoy him until he does! Her mother had always said that Bluesky's curiousity was pushing it to the extremes.

[Sleetfoot]

**OMD WILLOW! Yer post made me cry . That so sweet. Sleety and I feel so loved. Wow this is pathetic, I have no idea why I'm getting so choked up...Ok Sleety's looking at me weird...That was such a good post Willow!**

He smiled as she started to flick his ear. "I didn't see anything." He twitched his ear slightly to the right so her paw slipped right pas his head. Then he twisted his head around like lightning so he had her wrist gripped playfully in his jaws. His eyes twinkled in mock ferocity as he dropped her paw. "Better watch where your throwing that thing." But he couldn't stay mad for long. Even fake mad. Not at her. He smiled again then stood up. He sat beside her and twined his tail with hers as he let his side rub against her beautiful fur. Hopefully, he was distracting her enough, for Naturesong's sake. He sure did hope things would get better between him and his mates best friend. And soon.

[Bluesky]

"Hey!" She slipped forward as he dropped his paw, but was kept from face-planting in the dirt by Sleetfoot's strong frame. She twisted her neck around to rub her head on the back of his neck, purring loudly. NO DISTRACTIONS! CURIOSITY FIRST! "Are you sureeee?" But she really didn't feel like moving to see for herself, and it didn't sound like he was going to tell her. Instead, she sat back and decided to enjoy the moment, leaving her mewed words to hang in the air. Which was quite damp. A shiver dashed through her back, and she snuggled closer to Sleetfoot's warm body.
