It was fairly early in the night when Thrushstripe had tried to organize all of the patrols. He had several warriors simply watching the camp and a lot of warriors on border patrols, but he didn't really send many out to hunt which was a rather stupid move. They were still in the middle of Leaf-bare... with no hunters. Actually, he had intended on him going to hunt, but him by himself wasn't going to do much good. It took him a bit of looking around to find that out of everyone, he had yet to assign anything to Mistyflower. Well, she had her training, she could come hunting. Two warriors were better than one. Walking over to the young warrior, he began to speak. "Greetings Mistflower. Are you up for hunting today?" he asked her.

Mistflower had been keeping quiet, trying to wash the sent of prey away from her paws and jaws. She hadn't been eating anything herself, but she had taken a few frogs to the nursery for the queens and kits to eat - it was important to take care of the future of the clan before anything else, right? Although, the scent still lingered in her mouth and she longed to get rid of it, not having eaten in a day. The smell of the food was far too tempting. She had thought she'd been able to escape patrols for the time being until she had heard the deputy approach with a flick of her ear. So close. "Thrushstripe," the she-cat greeted back with a polite dip of her head. "I am if you are." Mistflower meowed, giving him a smile and a slightly curious look. The warrior didn't exactly feel all-too comfortable heading out into the territory out on her own anymore, for reasons, but if Thrushstripe came - what was the worst that could happen? "The fresh-kill pile is looking real pathetic right now, isn't it?"

Thrushstripe looked back at the small, dainty pile with a week look. It was pretty pathetic which is exactly why he needed to make this tripe. "Yes it is. Hopefully today's patrols will change that a little bit." he replied before he already began heading towards the entrance of the camp. After all of this sitting and ordering around, he was just itching to get into the territory to take his mind off of things. Even though his hunting skills were still pretty good, though, he had been having a hard time lately since he hadn't been getting much sleep. It was a terrible feeling, but one he just had to live with since all of these incidents with both his warriors and other clans' warriors. It was just one more thing he ended up worrying about and thinking over. "Well, let's go ahead and get a move on. I want to try to be back before sun up." he said, looking back at the young warrior.

The light gray tabby nodded again and followed after the tom, a few paces behind him. She wasn't known for her hunting skills, but Gingerheart - and Sagewhisker too - had taught her well and she was determined to get as much prey as she could bring back for the clan. And putting an impression on the clan deputy never hurt a bit, wanting to prove she wasn't just some newly named warrior. "The moon is high. We have time." Mistflower mused, "Where do you suggest we hunt first?" She thought about going near ShadowSky territory. The place was so hardly used, there was bound to be prey there - yet Nightstar still refused to send her warriors there for reasons Mistflower didn't quite understand. She couldn't think of many other places to go, though. Their territory was undoubtably running barren and she prayed for new-leaf to approach soon.

As they got into the territory, Thrushstripe began looking in the different directions of the borders. He really didn't know where to start to be honest. He actually hadn't really thought about that much, which was strange considering all he had been thinking about for the last... forever was all of the specific details of everyday tasks, but the hunting today had actually slipped his mind. "Well, let us start close to the Thunderpath. It is possible there is prey that had run across from Thunderclan. Although, with everything looking rather scarce at the moment, we might have to work our way closer to Shadowsky territory. It's not the greatest idea, but if it puts fresh-kill in our bellies, then we need to do it." he told rather monotonously, although inside he really hoped that there would be more prey around the middle of the territory. Unfortunately, with the weather being as cold as it has been, there wasn't a whole lot to choose from.

The most disappointing thing was that, even though they had reached the middle of their territory by now, Mistflower had yet to even scent one bit of prey. "Where could it all have gone?" she sighed, her belly starting to rumbling again out of hunger, almost teasingly. She glanced up at the sky, seeing dark clouds beyond the moonlight in the distance. A slightly cheerful look appeared on her face. "We'll do whatever we have too, right?" She padded alongside Thrushstripe, wearing a small smile. "The night is ours and look - rain is coming." She mused, "We could hunt wherever we needed too. No one would find us and - when we've gone - the rain would wash our scents away." Her blue-green eyes shined with mischievous determination, walking on ahead of the deputy.

At first, Thrushstripe was very reluctant to even try to go in that direction. It was definitely a place he really didn't want to go, but like he said: if it put food in the clan's bellies, then he would do it. He needed to keep the clan alive and safe. Those were his goals.

Alive and safe.

That was something he had failed at miserably lately, but he wasn't going to let it stop him. Not yet. With a heavy sigh, he looked at the young warrior. "Fine, you win. Just this once, though. We need to stay away from there unless Nightstar tells us otherwise." he really didn't like going against what the leader said, but things were getting desperate. It was what needed to be done. He slowly followed behind Mistflower, keeping his gaze low as they marched towards Shadowsky territory.

Mistflower flicked the tip of her tail, nodding a bit enthusiastically that he had agreed after all with her plan (Which was flawless to her. The chances of a WindClan patrol being out all the way over in ShadowSky were about as real her fifth paw), there was something about Thrushstripe's whole attitude that threw he off. "You know its the best thing to do. Shadowsky is our land. Why should we starve because pompous rabbit-chasers got way too greedy?" She challenged, her voice low, but holding a slightly sharp edge to it. "Nightstar's a good leader, but..." she paused, trying to find the right words. "But you're our deputy. You have to know we're only hurting ourselves going on like this." Maybe she was pushing herself a bit. After all, she was still a young warrior and her comments were probably a bit more than disrespectful, but she didn't take any of it back. Some piece of her longed to know what was on his mind.

The deputy narrowed his eyes for a second at the young warrior as she continued to speak. At first, he just wanted to snap back at her for being so... straightforward, but the more she said, the more he knew what she was saying was true. Keeping the warriors from hunting near Shadowsky territory was taking a toll, especially since prey was unusually scarce this leaf-bare. He knew that it was getting more and more difficult to live easy, but he had never doubted Nighstar's orders about staying away because the truth was that he never wanted to go back there himself. He preferred not having to venture that direction and liked staying in the middle of the territory, but at the same time, there was prey over there... "Yes, I know, but..." he paused for a second to gather his thoughts. He was lying to himself, but the lie sounded better to him. It hid the truth and made things easier to deal with. "Nighstar does know what is best. Maybe this is just a small episode. The prey will come back and be more plentiful than it has been in the past. It does seem to have gotten colder these past few sunsets." Yep. A lie. A beautiful lie to hold back everything he dreaded and feared so that he could stay strong for the rest of the clan.

The light gray tabby blinked, narrowing her eyes a little and flicking her ear as he paused on his own words, "You know, but...?" she repeated softly after him, trying to drag him out of his clever thoughts and get him to carry on with his ant-trail of thought. Mistflower sighed at his answer, laughing a bit to herself. "Spoken like a loyal deputy... but... Does she?" She asked aloud, still trying to question his better judgement. "Nightstar has a good-heart, but she can't always know what's right." The she-cat frowned, looking up again, the scent of the Thunderpath starting to carry on the breeze as they neared closer to it. "Things aren't getting better... And the nights being colder is not a good sign." She mewed, an unsteady smile on her face. "What if something happens to the clan?" You know, things like sickness or impending invasions. All that fun stuff. "What will you do then, Thrushstripe?" She paused a few fox-lengths away from the Thunderpath, stopping in front of him and looking the tom in the eyes.

"That's not going to happen," he responded quickly without even thinking about his answer. Unfortunately, he couldn't hold her gaze very long. He tried to look away subtly, but he only accomplished the opposite. He was confident in his answer, but in his mind he knew that something was bound to happen at some point. And she was right. What would he do? What if Nighstar couldn't do what she was supposed to for some reason? He was the deputy, so he had to take over. And if food continued to be this scarce, the only option they really had was to take back Shadowsky territory, and if they could, Skywind territory. He already knew what he had to do to keep this clan safe, the issue was he didn't want to execute any of said plans. All of them already involved too much stress and strength he didn't seem to have, but worst of all, they contained memories he didn't want to think about. "How did this hunting turn into questioning me?" he suddenly accused, his mind focusing back on the task at hand. He looked back up at Mistflower once again with a quizzical look on his face.

"You're a bad liar." The she-cat's whiskers twitched as he quickly tore his gaze away. He might've gotten away with that firm statement of his if the hastiness of his answer and body language hadn't given it away. To her, it seemed more like he was in denial than anything, and that struck her as strange. A cat like him, of position in ShadowClan in all clans, she assumed that he was strong-willed and firm in his mind, traits the clan would admire. Instead, she was surprised to see a cat who placed every ounce of trust in Nightstar, right or wrong. But why? He couldn't have always been like this, right?
Suddenly, though, it was her turn to feel a little uncomfortable. She started to speak, but waited for a passing monster to rush by, the large, deafening creature not noticing them. The end of her tail twitched, "Well..." Mistflower hesitated, "I admire you a lot. And how many chances will I get to talk to you alone like this?" She smiled and said lightly, almost as if it were a joke, though she grew quiet again. "You're going to be our leader someday. The entire clan will be on your shoulders. I just want to be sure that you know that, ... right?"

"Of course I know that. I wouldn't be like this if I wasn't--" he quickly stopped himself as he realized what he was going to say. Oh Starclan, he didn't want to say anything. He tried to hard to keep himself strong, but here he was just falling apart. So what if he didn't get much sleep because his mind was always too busy? So what if times were getting a little tough. He was supposed to be tough too, and what he was showing right now was definitely not tough. It was anxiety; almost fear in a way. Of course, as he tried to build the mental walls back up in his head, he barely even noticed the monsters passing by or the fact that they had gotten so close to the Thunderpath already. He just realized how Mistflower had practically stared him down like she was demanding an answer (all exaggeration). At least, that's what it felt like. Letting out a heavy sigh, he looked around and began walking parallel to the Thunderpath in search of any scent of prey that could be near. "Let's just get back to hunting..." he muttered.[/color]

Mistflower quietly waited again for him to finish before frowning and urging him on, "If you weren't...?" She muttered quietly after him. His discomfort was only becoming more and more obvious. He was so - if she could think of the right way to say it - shelled away it had seemed. Although the two of them weren't exactly close, her concern for him was growing more and more by the second, and she couldn't help but want to break down those mental walls of his. The young warrior watched as he sighed heavily, walking away from her and trying to focus back on his hunting. "Thrushstripe." She called, padding after him, "Tell me what's wrong." It was a rather brave thing for her to say, probably a bit foolish too, though the she-cat couldn't care too much about it at the moment. Although the words themselves seemed a bit demanding, the look on her face was far more pleading.

"Don't worry about it," he snapped as he stopped walking, not even bothering to turn around to look at Mistflower. It was bad enough she was already trying to pull answers out of him before, but now he's slipped up. She was breaking through the walls. How was she managing to do that? It almost hurt, in a way. He'd been so used to keeping everyone out. He'd been used to bottling everything up to keep them hidden from all of his fellow warriors. He had to be strong... but why did he feel so weak? He couldn't help the clan with hunting, for there wasn't anything to hunt. He couldn't just make leaf-bare disappear now matter how much he wanted to. He couldn't keep cats from getting hurt-- Mapleface and Snowface were clear examples of that. "Let's keep moving. We're burning moonlight. You wanted to go to Shadowsky territory, so let's go." He was seriously trying to avoid the subject. He couldn't show just how weak he really was on the inside. Even though he didn't have to try as hard as Nightstar, he had to stay strong. He had to keep moving on, but at the same time, he couldn't let the past go. There were so many things he could have done differently to change past events. There were so many better options, choices, decisions, and he wasn't going to let himself fall under that standard.
