Thunderbird - - >
The forest was quiet this evening, with the sun beginning to dip just behind the now orange-yellow leaves, matching her own pelt. Nothing could be heard except for the two she-cats paw steps and the slight gurgle of water ahead of them. Thunderbird's ears were angled forward, trying to catch the sound of any potential prey she could sink her claws into. Padding casually alongside her was Suncatcher, her newfound and only friend so far in MistClan. Friend? Could she call her that? Yeah, she figured she could. She never really had a whole lot of friends back in her old Clan either, aside from her siblings, but she was a bit brash and no one had really wanted to mess with the now former-leaders daughter. She missed Lionstorm, and Hailstrike...it seemed like anyone she got close to either died or left her. She hoped that MistClan would be different for her. So far, Suncatcher seemed nice, if a bit..interesting at times. She couldn't lie to herself, though, she found the she-cat quite attractive, though she'd never say it out loud. The red-orange she-cat seemed to have a big enough ego for herself that she had discovered during their first encounter.
The snap of a twig under her paws broke her from her train of thought, noting that they had reached part of the small stretch of stream that she had fallen in a few days ago. A lot had happened since then. After relaying her tale of MothClan's state to Sablestar, he decided that she was allowed to stay, Suncatcher also helping vouch for her. She'd noticed a few other of her Clanmates had also decided to make MistClan home for the time being. The warriors den had been kind of cramped, honestly, but lucky for her she was able to add some moss to Suncatcher's nest and pile in with her. Which, neither seemed to be complaining about. The idea of sleeping next to the she-cat each night made her pelt hot. She'd started to follow her companion around camp like a lost kit, learning the ins and outs of MistClan culture. So when today Suncatcher suggested learning to hunt frogs, she wasn't too hesitant on the idea. It was best to go right before the sun set, because the frogs would start coming out at night to sing. And sing they did.
As soon as the moon began to take over the sun's position in the sky, soft buzzing came from the stream, her golden eyes fixing on each slimy, hopping creature as they moved in and out of the water. She prayed to StarClan that she didn't slip into the water again, she didn't need anymore embarrassment on her part. The leaves crunched under her paws as she made her way to the bank of the stream, dipping her head into the crisp, cool water to take a quick drink, watching more leaves break off the branches of the trees above and landing into the moving water. She had to admit, the water her tasted much better than MothClan's, which sometimes tasted like the rot from the twoleg trash place. She padded back to sit next to Suncatcher, awaiting the she-cat's instructions as if she was an apprentice again.
