Welcome To Your New Home (Closed for Icestorm and Berryheart)

Moonkit ran as fast as her short legs could go, her fur still standing on end, only looking behind to make sure that her brother was still behind her and that the scary warrior wasn’t following them. It took her some time to realize that they weren’t being followed. She stopped, and as the adrenaline started to retreat in her body, she started to feel really tired, for how long they had been running?

With a deep sigh she started to look around, she didn’t recognized they place at all…they were lost! Lost in an unknown territory during the night and tired from running…this didn’t looked good at all “Y-you know where are we?” She looked at her brother, hoping that at least him knew where they were.

Blazekit looked around "Doesn't look much different from what mom told us about their territory"

Antdrop and his little brother Tinypaw padded through SkyClan territory, hoping to catch some prey. Antdrop didn't really want Tinypaw following him around, for the weird little would probably just slow him down. Letting out a sigh, he walked at a normal pace. If he want's to come, he needs to keep up. Not saying a word, the black tom kept going, heading towards a good hunting spot he'd found yesterday. Although before they arrived, he smelt an odd scent. Stopping mid stride, he held his tail out for Tinypaw to stop too.

~~~

Well, at least Antdrop had let him come. Awkwardly walking behind his brother and trying to keep up, he gave a small sigh. Why couldn't Antdrop just accept him? The short white cat felt like everything was a competition with his older brother and wondered why. Antdrop suddenly stopped and Tinypaw came to a halt behind him. "What is it?" He asked, looking around. He didn't see or smell anything, what could Antdrop have smelt?

Moonkit sighed and sat on the green grass, letting her tiny paws have a break. She still was a bit shaky from the scare that the warrior gave them back at the border, listening her heartbeat loud and clear in her tiny ears as her heart pounded quickly in her chest. Curling up and sleeping was such a tempting idea, but she knew that doing so under the situation they were in would be really dangerous.

Well, it was official, they were lost. She lowered her ears and looked at the starless sky, wondering what her brother and she would do now. They didn’t even were big enough to hunt yet…and the fact they had barely started to eat meat not long ago wasn’t a comforting thought either. She was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard two voices not far from where they were. Did the warrior followed them after all? She hoped not, she was too tired to try to run away again.

Blazekit's Fur Was Still Bushed With Anger From Earlier that day, he was too hungry to smell the air, as he was not used to having an empty belly for a day

"I smell... cats," he meowed nervously, sniffing the air. Who ever dared trespass in their territory was close, and Antdrop wondered if they would put up a fight. Giving a silent tilt of his head towards the scent, he crouched down and crept forward as if he was stalking prey. Fear scent filled the air and Antdrop hoped it wasn't his own. Just a little bit farther, the scent of the strangers was getting closer. Jumping over a bush with his teeth bared for what ever they might run into, he was completely shocked by what he saw. "They're just kits," he meowed aloud relaxing, but still keeping a sharp eye out for a queen who might be nearby.

~~~

Tinypaw followed his brother, crawling under the bush because of his height, and was surprised by what they found. Kits? What were kits doing here, and all alone? There didn't seem to be a queen around, and he wondered if the kits were lost or abandoned. "What are you doing in our territory?" The odd cat asked softly, but still a bit on edge, realizing that there was probably something not as threatening he could've asked. They were just kits after all.

Moonkit yowled and tried to run once more as soon as the black cat jumped over a nearby bush with his teeth bared at them, but even with the new adrenaline rush, her paws were way too tired to go on anymore, causing her to trip and fall on her muzzle.

Under normal situations the small kit probably would’ve tried to talk with the small white cat, considering him interesting and maybe even a bit silly with his tiny legs, however, right now the only thing she could see was a threatening cat in front of them.

With the option of running no longer being there and with her brother so close, she gathered as much courage as she could and started to hiss at them furiously as she arched her back and unsheathed her tiny claws. However, her apparently brave actions were betrayed by her fear, tucking her tail and her whole fur standing on end as she shivered badly. She was way too scared to even answer the question of the smaller tom.

Blazekit Bravely Padded Torward the Black cat And the short white cat "I Thought There Was Only One Territory That Belonged To Us" He Said

Somewhat surpirsed at the kit's outburst of hissing, Antdrop had a hard time containing his somewhat angry mood. "We're not going to hurt you," he meowed, staying where he was to make sure that he didn't scare them. All he wanted to know was where they were from and why they were here, but then again, they were only kits.

~~~

Waiting for Antdrop to finish, Tinypaw gave a sigh. How were they suposed to get the kits to talk of they were scared? "Yeah, no need to worry, we just need to know why you are here, can you tell us?" The small tom meowed softly, looking from one kit to the other.

It took some time for Moonkit to calm down, noticing that the cats weren’t moving towards them, nor growling or hissing in their faces like the other warrior did before they came here. Her fur slowly flattened against her body and her hissing stopped, she was still clearly nervous, but not to the point of not hearing and acting like if she was cornered out of raw fear. She took a couple of cautious steps towards the two cats, still tense but now  bit more curious, they smelled odd…at least for her and she clearly didn’t knew them at all, but they seemed nice enough.

She listened to their questions, taking a deep breath before talking so her voice wasn’t shaky “We…we were exploring, with a friend, but then an adult came, he hissed and threatened us…he also took our friend away…I’m not sure of what he did later, I was too scared, I just ran away as fast as I could…and I think that we got lost” She looked at her brother, wondering if he had something else to add.

"And They Stank Of Fish!" He put in with a disgusted look

Antdrop listened to the kit's story, somewhat amused that they'd made it this far. A warrior threatened them? Well, if they were running away then who ever the other cat was had the right to be angry at them. He listened as the other kit said something about them smelling like fish, and his fur immediately stood on end. RiverClan. "Did the cat follow you?" They may have only been kits, but Antdrop realized SkyClan could get in serious trouble and even start an unwanted fight because of them. Looking to his brother, the black tom had honestly no clue what to do with them. Could they send them back? Or bring them to Crowstar...

~~~

When Antdrop looked at him, Tinypaw wondered why his brother thought he had all the answers. "Well, uh, should we take them to Crowstar or send them back?" The small cat asked, his tone holding a bit of his nervousness.

Moonkit turned around and looked at the dark forest, her tiny ears moving restlessly in attempts to catch any noise “I…I don’t think so…” She wasn’t completely sure if the Riverclan cat had tried to follow them here or not, but she really hoped that he didn’t, that they had managed to escape. Feeling her tired paws complaining with every move she did Moonkit finally decided to lay down, trusting that the two older cats wouldn’t harm them. The tiny kit wasn’t used to run for this long, or stay up until this hour, and to make things worse she started to feel a bit hungry, but decided against saying anything about it, it wasn’t the right time to do it.

Blazekit laid down next to Moonkit to keep their fur warm "He took the mean kit away.." he said. He closed his eyes, he was exausted but he didn't sleep

Well, they had no choice but to bring them to camp. "Can you walk to camp with us?" He asked, noticing the kits looking tired and hoping that he would need to carry them, thus getting to camp faster.

Tinypaw gave Antdrop and took a few steps forward, turning around when he asked the small cats a question.
