OOC//Teh  Creative title, No? IC// Cheetahpelt lay quietly with Mothpelt in the shade of the camp's edge.She purred softly, soaking in the sun's dimming rays as the afternoon slowly sunk into evening.The bengal pressed against her mate affectionately as the tabby tom meowed softly to her and began grooming her back.But her amber gaze was pointedly avoiding a particular apprentice on the other side of the clearing, who, now, was doing anything but relaxing.
Amberpaw giggled softly and tossed and turned in the sand, sending dust flying up everywhere.With another soft purr, she sprang to her speckled paws, amber eyes bright, and began chasing a butterfly around camp. |

From out of no where it seemed, Copperpaw, Amberpaw's sister, leapt from her hiding spot in the shadows behind her den. She batted the butterfly and it when flying toward her sister. But again she was off her paws and in the air as she bounced after the colorful creature. All the while, Copperpaw was in a fit of giggles.
From a little ways away, a dark brown tom watched from his perch in the shadow's of the Warrior's Den. He was the apprentices' father, Dustfall. He watched the two young cats in amusment and pride. He loved his kits more then anything in the world. They meant a lot to him, and always would. Even if he and their mother, Cheetahpelt, were no longer mates. And that was a very long story to be told another day. Swallowing the last bit of mouse he had picked out from the Fresh-kill pile, he stood and stretched. His lean body stretching long and thin into the warm sunlight. He took after his own father, former WindClan leader, quite a bit. After warming up, he padded toward Cheetahpelt and her new mate, Mothpelt, who also happened to be Dustfall's brother. |

Cheetahpelt glanced upward, her eyes narrowing slightly as Dustfall approached.She nodded a greeting to her friend awkwardly, glancing at Mothpelt to see his reaction.But the tom didn't seem concerned.
"Hi,Dustfall!"
The tabby meowed to his brother,with a friendly nod.
At this, Cheetahpelt relaxed slightly and smiled slightly, before glancing coldly over at the apprentices. Trying to conceal her feelings toward her former kits, she forced her eyes to brighten.
Amberpaw raised herself up on her hind legs,swiping gentley at the butterfly, before lowering herself onto all four paws again.She blinked at her sister, who was giggling madly, in confusion.
What's wrong with you?
She meowed in amusement, tilting her head. [/center] |

Dustfall smiled and sat beside the pair, curling his tail around his paws. "Hey Mothpelt, Cheetahpelt." he replied cheerfully, purring a happy greeting at seeing his friends again. He'd been busying himself a lot lately and hadn't gotten the chance to share-tongues with either of them, let alone anyone else. "How are you two this morning?" he asked, giving his chest a few brief licks to flatten his fur.
Copperpaw giggled again and swatted at the butterfly, hitting it back toward Amberpaw. "Well, I stepped on a thorn yesterday, had to fetch clean bedding for the elders today, and now I'm playing with my mouse-brained sister. That sum it up for you?" she replied with yet another giggle. |

Cheetahpelt was shaken away from her icy thoughts at Dustfall's reply.Her spotted ears pricked and she lifted her head to glanced at Dustfall, amber optics warming slightly.She sighed softly and shrugged.
Nothing much, just hanging out.
She answered, giving her friend a smile before averting her gaze distractedly.The bengal looked slightly troubled.
Mothpelt blinked his green eyes and narrowed them playfully.He gave Cheetahpelt an affectionate nudge before returning his gaze to Dustfall.
Well, while she was here 'hanging out', I actually did some hunting.
He meowed playfully.
Amberpaw let the butterfly flutter past her head, staring at Copperpaw in confusion.She blinked once, then shrugged.Her sister had always been a bit....hyper.
Well, I want to find my mentor and do some hunting.Need to stretch my legs, you know?
She meowed. |

Dustfall purred in amusement. "We'll have to go out sometime together. I haven't seen you much lately." he meowed. He added with a chuckle, "Up for a little brother bonding time?" Then he noticed Cheetahpelt's expression. "Something wrong?" he asked gently. All though he and Cheetahpelt had been through a lot, and finally come to the decision that though they had had feelings for each other they had only has crushes, they were still good friends. Really good friends actually, and that was enough for Dustfall to worry if something was wrong with her, just as he worried for Mothpelt, Sandstorm, and his kits.
Copperpaw rolled her eyes. "Do you have to take everything so seriously." she said with exageration. "Well, I on the other hand and going to find my mentor and see if I can go on the next hunting patrol." she said. "He's been letting me go on more and more! It's fun because there are a bunch of cats and if you catch something then you get praise from everyone! Do you want to come?" she asked. Truth be told, she enjoyed her sister's company more then she let on. She enjoyed her brother's company too. They both knew it but it didn't really show in the way they were always acting with each other. -rolls eyes and sighs- Siblings, what are you going to do? |

Mothpelt smirked playfully.You just want an excuse for me to teach you how to REALLY hunt. He joked, green eyes narrowing playfully.But at Dustfall's comment, the black and brown tabby's attention was averted.He turned a concerned gaze on Cheetahpelt, and when his mate didn't reply, his gaze softened and he blinked.
Cheetahpelt?
The bengal looked up, stirred,and sighed, shaking her head to signify nothing was wrong.
Nope, gotta hunt!Bye!
She meowed, trying to sound falsely cheery.Before the other two could move, she sprang to her paws and padded out of the camp entrance.
Mothpelt cast a confused glance at Dustfall before blinking in surprise and getting to his own feet.Cheetahpelt, wait! He meowed, running after her.
Amberpaw shrugged, eyes gleaming with amusement.Oh yeah?Well you act too....not serious!We're almost warriors, you know.She meowed gentley, leaning forward and giving her sister's ear a rough lick.And then, she sighed softly.The thought of warriors crowding around her,gushing over her kill made her shiver.It'd be better If I hunted alone.All of those warriors distract me. |

Dustfall glanced at his brother with an equally confused look. He stood and was ready to dash after her as well before he stopped. Mothpelt could probably get whatever was bothering her out easier then he could. Besides, he didn't want to seem like he was intruding. Insted, he sighed and hoped that it really was nothing that was bothering her. He had problems of his own and would most likely need her opinion later on if it got worse. Turning, he padded toward Darkstone where he found Twilightmoon and a few others in a deep, heated discussion.
Copperpaw giggled again as Amberpaw licked her ear. She was ticklish around her ears. Had been since she was a tiny kit. Then replied to her sister's comment. "Yeah, it does get kind of boring and annoying after the first few times." She shrugged it off. "Well, it looks like the next hunting patrol wouldn't be going for another couple of hours anyway. Mind if I join you? I could teach you how to get a squirrel out of a tree!" she suggested, puffing her chest, proud of her recent accomplishment. |

Amberpaw growled playfully, swiping her tail lightly over Copperpaw's shoulders.I know how to hunt!And climb, for that matter!And that, in my opinion, is all you need to catch a squirrel! She meowed half-jokingly.But yeah, c'mon.. |

Copperpaw flicked her tail across Amberpaw's nose and giggled. "Okay! Let's go! she said, bounding toward the entrance. A moment before she disappeared through the tunnel she shouted over her shoulder, "Race you!" |

Amberpaw narrowed her amber eyes in amusement but refrained from racing after Copperpaw, although she was tempted to.Her golden optics gleamed as she puffed her chest proudly and gracefully padded out of the camp after Copperpaw. |
