Chapter 6
(Bee above)
Tiger's pov
I wake up to Frostpaw nudging me, his eyes wide with worry, i sit up and start to clean my fur, letting him talk. "Tigerleap, today while i was on patrol i scented other cats, more then us i think, i wanted to follow it but decided to tell Slaightfur, she's gathering us into a small patrol to see what it is" i nod and follow him to the small, waiting patrol. It didn't take long for us to spot a orange she-cat with a gray muzzle and green eyes, her yellow collar didn't go unnoticed, but the claw marks on it got us curious. Her head snaps out way when the snow made a noise under out weight, her ears purled in alert, but when she saw us she relaxed. "We already told you Le-" she stops mid sentence when she realized we aren't the cat she's thinking of. Behind her a dark red she-cat with black stripes and yellow eyes came from behind her, her black collar not making any noise, a small black kitten with green eyes and a gray kitten with a white patch over his left eye and green eyes followed closely, and finally a light gray tom with black stripes coming up his legs came, his amber eyes focused on the kits that looked at us scared. "Who are you?" the black kit asks. "We are clan cats, who are you?" the light gray tom answered, cleaning dirt off his black striped legs. "I'm Vine, the two she-cats are Lemon and Fang and the kits are Inky and Storm". "Are you wild cats or what??" Jadepaw asks. "We live in a group, protecting out territory, you should come and stay til the snow clears" Lemon says, her orange tail curled around Inky's small black frame. "That's a wonderful offer, thanks, what do you do in your group?" Sparkeye asks as we start following them. "We work to help cats find their mates and have a long and happy life" Fang says. "Its not fun because no kits have been born sense i have" Storm says flatly. "What about Inky, he's younger then you" Fang says. "But we found him, he's not group born, it's different". "But we aren't completely sure your pure group born ether". "Whats going on?" i ask Vine. "We found Storm as a small kit outside out camp, Bee took him in as her own with White-river. We never found his real mother" i nod as we come into a camp. it wasn't to full but the cats were really strong looking, but friendly. I noticed they were all smaller then Lemon and Fang and Vine, a brown tom with white stripes and golden-ish eyes came out way, his walk is confident and strict. "Lemon, Fang, Vine, what do we have here?". "Some traveling cats Adder, leave them alone" a brown tom with dark brown stripes and blue eyes says coming to Adder's side. "But Thicket-". "Go help Bailey with Cloud and Patch and stop being so rude. Sorry about my brother, and welcome!" Thicket says once Adder leaves. "So stay as long as you need and watch out for Bee, her kits and her are strict and powerful, sense i arrived i haven't seen anything but coldness from them, but considering Ivys tail is expecting kits soon i hope it changes" Thicket walks off and Lemon leads us around, telling us and introducing us to cats. "This is Quicksand and Shimmer" she points to a cream tom with a red muzzle and yellow eyes with a yellow collar, Quicksand, and a black she-cat with violet eyes and slick, shimmery fur, Shimmer. "Hi" they say happily before continuing their conversation. "And over here we have Bailey the black she-cat with gray stripes and purplish eyes and green collar, she's the mother of Cloud and Patch. And Bee, the white she-cat with gray and black stripes and yellow eyes, blue collar and mother of Feathers heart, Ivys tail, caretaker of Storm" Bee waves her tail as a hi and Bailey talks for her. "We are happy for your stay, Bee doesn't talk much so don't worry about her, careful around some of the other cats, half of our group went out on a journey" I nod and follow Lemon again, Frostpaw following close behind. "Finally White-river, the white tom with gray paws and black muzzle and goldish eyes, he's father of Feathers heart, Ivys tail, and his daughters. Feathers heart, the light gray she-cat with black patches and white paws, amber eyes, and Ivys tail the white she-cat with dark gray strikes on her back and blue eyes". I'd be lying if i didn't say Feathers heart was a very beautiful she-cat, she smiled and waves her tail at us, her warm gaze lingering from us all before focusing on her sister again who's gaze was ice cold. Standing up and with a nod of her head, Ivys tail walked towards, what i think, is the nursery. "Oh and don't forget us!" i turn to the voice to see two cats looking at us, about my brother and I's age. "Oh yea, that's Cloud, the dark gray tom with the light gray stripe down his back and purple eyes, and his sister Patch, the black she-cat with white spots and yellow eyes, honestly, they are a pain" Fang says coming up to us. "Hey! At least we wont whine as much as Hazel and Moss will". "Who?" i ask. "Ivys tail's kits, she knows their will be two from what Quicksand said, so she named them already, now get some sleep, Bailey is getting tired and you know how she is" Adder says coming up behind the kits. "Fine, come on" Lemon leads us to an over sized den and we all make out nests, i curl with Frostpaw, wondering what Slaighfur will think and say about this new group.
