Batclaw flicked his ebony tail in greeting to Abu. "I'm Batclaw." He answered with a dip of his head, not bothering to introduce Pepperfur. The mottled RiverClanner could introduce himself when he actually bothered to get up.With a sidelong glance at Trixiepelt, Batclaw sighed, and after waiting a moment, answered for her."We were just going to patrol...make sure nothing's sneaking up on us." the ThunderClanner answered lightly with a hint of amusement in his golden eyes. "And then...Trixiepelt was gonna go hunting with...." Batclaw trailed off, eyes narrowing only slightly."Uh...Pepperfur...that tom over there." With a tilt of his black and brown head toward the other tom who was laying with his back spitefully to him, Batclaw sighed, glanced at Trixiepelt, and then returned his gaze politely to Abu.

"Nice to meet you Abu." Trixiepelt meowed, ignoring Batclaw's reluctance in introducing or even mentioning Pepperfur. With a nearly silent sigh, she turned her gaze back over to Abu. "So, Abu do you live around this group of barns?" She asked, though she was sure the question was a bit obvious....you never really know since most loners claim two to three barns at a time.
((Ugh. Im museless and really really tired. And since I guess Im spouse to post here.....ya'll will have to live with THAT post))

OOC//xD
IC//Abu nodded to Batclaw with a friendly smile. "And same to you." he replied. "Of course I live around here. If I wasn't alive I wouldn't be talking to you, now would I?" His mouth twisted into an amused smile, silently laughing at his own joke. "I suppose you could say I live around here, but I don't really stay in one place." He shrugged. "If you guys are going out patroling, I could show you where the best places to hunt are, and which ones you should stay away from. A lot of dangerous critters creep around this place."

Batclaw's nose twitched in amusement at Abu's little joke, his tail lowering as a sign that he was becoming a bit more relaxed. The tom's golden eyes widened in surprise, however, when Abu made his offer. Blinking several times, Batclaw flashed another glance at Trixiepelt before returning his gaze to the longer. "Uh...yeah! If it's okay with Trixiepelt...thanks!" He meowed with a slight, grateful smile. He didn't like feeling lost in his surroundings, and actually knowing where they were going would be a nice change.

Trixiepelt gave a small nod, though she knew much of these surroundings since the battle incodent with Thunderclan moons back as well as....she lived as a loner for moons when Riverclan's lands were flooded out so badly.....she wouldn't mind someone pointing out new dangers to the area. She guessed if Abu took the patrol hunting...there would be enough prey to feed the small group of cats and, well she did promise to take Pepperfur hunting. With another moment's pause, she turned to the Batclaw.
"I sorta promised to take Pepperfur hunting in the hay-loft." She meowed. "Why don't I just take him hunting there now while Abu takes you around the area? Because if we start hunting......that sorta defeats the perpouse of me and Pepperfur hunting later." She explained.

Batclaw's ears flicked as he tried to hide his annoyance. Sure, she had time to hunt with Pepperfur. Why not him, then? There was a moment of silence as Batclaw shifted uncomfortabley, trying to refrain from shooting a venomous glare at the tortoiseshell. "Yeah, whatever." He mumbled at last, eyes on the ground.

Instantly, Trixiepelt sensed the Thunderclan tom's annoyance. With another silent sigh and a last glance to Batclaw, she padded over to Pepperfur. Carefully, she nudged her friend's shoulder. "Hey, Pepperfur....theres sorta been some change in plans. Abu's going to take Batclaw hunting and what-not so, I just told them I'd hunt with you instead" She meowed. "That is...if you are ready to hunt right now" She added.

Anger made the black and brown tom rigid as he watched Trixiepelt pad over to the tom that had become his enemy over the past few days, leaving him without a thought with some loner he barely knew, and that they might not even be able to trust for all they knew. With a quick lash of his ebony tail, Batclaw turned back to Abu, trying to disguise his irritance. "So, shall we go then?"
Pepperfur lifted his head in surprise as Trixiepelt padded back over to him. Triumph flashed briefly in the tom's amber eyes, instantly guessing how annoyed Batclaw must feel about this. But curiousity made him pause and rewind for a moment, optics narrowing."Huh?Who's Abu? Gaze traveled over to the strange loner who had wandered in in suspicion.

Trixiepelt couldn't help but smile at that, she thought that Pepperfur would have noticed the loner's presence inside the barn. With quick glance to the loner and Batclaw, she answered his question, "Abu is that loner standing over there by Batclaw. He agreed to take us hunting and on a patrol....but, I couldn't hunt with them since I promised you I'd hunt with you." She meowed. Though, she knew she'd have to repay Batclaw for ditching him like that....maybe they'd go on a night patrol or something. Turning back to Pepperfur she added, "Are you ready?"

Pepperfur wondered if they could trust Abu, but if he would strike, it would probably be soon,when he had Batclaw alone. Then, the loner would be revealed and they could fight them off. It would end up perfect, good riddance to both of them. The tortoiseshell usually wasn't so bitter, but he'd been particularly moody since the tornado. Finally tearing his gaze away from the loner, he forced a smile and nodded at Trixipelt."Okay, let's go!" He replied with a sudden burst of encouragement, getting to his paws.

With one last glance over to Batclaw and Abu, Trixiepelt padded up beside Pepperfur. Though she didn't admit it, she couldn't help but not trust the new loner. Especially since he just happened to wander in right before the left. For a split second she wondered if she should follow them and promise Pepperfur another hunting trip. But that wasn't like her. Trixiepelt never went back on promises. She would just have to listen for any trouble outside the barn while she was hunting.As Pepperfur rose to his paws, she began to pad off toward the hay-loft stairs at the corner of the barn.

Pepperfur pricked his ears and bounded after Trixiepelt, pointedly choosing his path so that he slipped by Batclaw.Pointedly, he passed his ThunderClan rival, and hurried to catch up with the ginger she-cat ahead. "So, where are we gonna hunt at?" He asked.
