Duskblaze the Loner He nodded at everything she said. "I miss Fernheart and my brother. Boltstar was like a father to me, but.... But I was closer to Fernheart," he admitted. He shrugged and continued, "If you miss Stormclan, then why don't you try and make another group? It'll keep Honeyheart and her kits safe. Plus, those kits will probably get excited just thinking about being an actual warrior."
He heard something in the distance and turned his head. He saw a squirrel scampering away. He relaxed at the small intrusion and purred lightly. "A clan is needed. A strong one that can handle anything, including the Dark Forest. I believe you could form one of those. We're both strong cats and I think we can get some strong cats recruited," he commented, tail flicking back and forth.

Scorpion turned her attention back to Duskblaze. Her eyes lit up and she smiled slightly. It was a quick one however as the she-cat rarely smiled. She kept a tough outer shell, and she didn’t want to ruin that reputation by letting a small smile slip. Did he REALLY think she could do it? She had failed once ..and she had felt bad she felt for Honeyheart. However she dug her claws into the ground, she was determined to make this work. As she had said before, she didn’t know what the future for Cherrykit and Pinekkit would be if they joined a group, but if she started her own…at least she could ensure their safety.
”Let’s do it.” She mewed bluntly. Her ears flicked at the sound in the distance and her fur began to rise ever so slightly. Her muscles tensed and her eyes scanned the area taking in anything that seemed unusual. She wasn’t ready to let anything happen to Duskblaze, herself, those kits, she would provide them with a home.
”The best place to start would be outside the hill. I heard cats still avoid this place as if it has a plague. I can go long periods of time without sleep, lets recruit then. It will be good to hunt and fight along side you again. I missed it, even though I caused trouble for you….hey remember when I was a young apprentice and chased Boltstar into that mud puddle?”
Scorpion found herself chuckling slightly at the though, her tail brushed Duskblazes shoulder ever so slightly a warm smile on her muzzle. Now that she was thinking about her clan life again, she didn’t have a care in the world.

Duskblaze the Loner Duskblaze smirked at the comment. "Oh, he was so angry! I was a trouble maker as an apprentice too. So was my brother. There was this one time, where I convinced the kits of the clan that there was a monster that roamed the camp at night. I dared them to leave the nursery one night. Only to cover myself with mud and leaves and leap out at them. They screamed so loud that half the clan woke up, expecting an attack," he commented.
He chuckled at the story. Even so, his eyes softened slightly as he remembered the kits. They were in Starclan now, having died as warriors for many reasons. He missed them, like he missed everyone. He wouldn't admit that to anyone, though. He wished he could see their faces again. He looked back at the kits in the hole, curled up next to their mother and his heart ached.
"I had kits with a she-cat one time. Precious little things. They were so adventurous, so sweet and funny. I was out hunting one day, only to hear screaming. I ran as quickly as I could, only to see my kits, stranded on the rocks of a rushing river, as their mother tried was swept down stream. A fox was on one side of the river bank, I was on the other. I called out to them, telling them to stay where they were and that I was coming for them. I did and I carried each of them, one by one to the bank. They weren't strong enough, though. They drowned in the process. I had to bury them there and their mother did too, although I never saw her body," he said quietly.

Scorpion chuckled slightly at his own story. She must not have been born for that quite yet, but it sounded like something she would do herself. ”Or that time when I told my brother that when you ate mice it gave you super powers…he jumped from a tree and soon realized that you didn’t get super powers.” She shook her head remembering her trouble making days. Those days were long over.
She followed Duskblazes eyes towards Honeyheart, and her eyes softened. Her tail touched his shoulder ever so slightly. ”they are fun kits Duskblaze. I bet you could teach Pinekit a thing or two. She’s very eager and determined. She even enjoys cuddling when she’s tired. In the mountains, Cherrykit would hog all of Honeyhearts fur, so Pinekit would lay with me, you could say we bonded.” She mewed softly.
Her ears perked once more as the rustling got closer, she narrowed her eyes slightly but continued to listen to Duskblazes story. Her heart began to sink into the pit of her chest. ”Duskblaze I’m so sorry…” She whispered. The black she-cat pressed her fur against his in a comforting manner. Scorpion didn’t know what it was like to lose children…family was hard from time to time but losing a son or a daughter, she didn’t know what that was like. ”If theres anything…I can do…” She mewed softly. She looked at her paws before sliding her tail over his in a comforting manner.

Duskblaze the Loner He purred slightly. "They're with Starclan now, I suppose," said. He then heard the rustling get much louder. His eyes narrowed as he turned towards the noise. He let out a sharp growl. The rustling stopped for a moment, making his fur raise. His claws unsheathed and suddenly a white and gray tabby head popped out of the bushes.
Duskblaze was about to lash out at it, but the tom just tilted his head a little. "What do you want?" he asked, his voice commanding and deep. He was on all four of his paws and his teeth were bared to show his sharp fangs. Even so, the tom seemed to be unconcerned with the threat that stood in front of him.
tags;;Sookeh, lyrics;;Eminem Stone He stared at the two cats with curious eyes before stepping all the way out of the bush. His jaw was at an odd angle and a long scar ran along it. Even so, his eyes were bright and pleasant, oddly enough. "I'm sorry. I overheard you two talking about a group a few minutes ago. Then when you two got off subject, I didn't feel right coming out at a personal moment. So I waited. Then you told me to come out, and I did. My name is Stone," he said. The way his spoke was different, though. It was thick and heavy. Not like the cats around here, or even in the mountains.
He looked at the two, although he knew another she-cat, and kits, were around. He could tell by the smells, although he made no comment. He didn't want to get attacked right away. "I was wondering if I could join your group? I was in one, but I left right after my jaw healed from breaking. Perhaps you could use another friend?" he suggested. words / stuff / other stuff

Scorpion nearly lunged forward at the new comer. The deep rumble in the back of her throat was warning enough, however the tom hardly seemed like a threat. She narrowed her eyes slightly when he mentioned them having a moment she snorted slightly. ”We were NOT having a moment, and yes we were talking about a group. A few moons ago I had started a clan but it fell. So Duskblaze and I were JUST discussing starting it back up again.” She mewed. She turned her head to look at Duskblaze unsure about this tom. However just as she was about to object, the light paw steps behind her rustled the grass.
”Honeyheart you should be sleeping…”
The golden she-cat dipped her head politely and shook head head. ”I’m rested Scorpion thank you. You and Duskblaze have been out here for hours look.” She pointed to the horizon where orange was starting to touch the sky. She smiled softly at the three. ”Greetings I’m Honeyheart.” She shuffled her paws when she overheard the talk of a group. ”Scorpy lead our old group very well. She chased out some cats and got a great camp. I can help too. Pinekit and Cherrykit can too. Scorpion please…I just want to feel at home again. I’m sure this new comer would help..”
Scorpion flinched..she was TOO trusting. Scorpion didn’t like that idea whatsoever. She murmured a few things to herself contemplating the idea. She looked and to her surprise the sun was starting to rise. How long had they been out here? Had it really been hours. ”FINE. If he wants to help he can start by hunting…or why don’t you both go hunting Duskblaze and I don’t need rest…we can scope out an area…we will bring Pinekit with us..you take cherrykit. Sound like a plan?”
