[atrb=width,469,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=ce6e13] Morning had still not yet arrived, however to make it across the Drylands Lostpaw needed to leave early. If the apprentice didn't leave before the sun rose she would burn up, at least that was what her mentor told her. When Lostpaw's so called mother told her the truth about her name and where she was found Lostpaw knew she didn't want to stay with the clan anymore. She wanted to meet her real family, and when Lostpaw set her mind to something she wouldn't let anyone tell her otherwise! She had been stopped once before by her worried 'mother' this time she made sure that no one would follow her, saying that she was going to try hunting in the Drylands. Her mentor had shown her the borders and she knew that the drop canyon would be too dangerous to even attempt to cross so she instead would try to make it to the gathering place and cross there, hopefully no AshClan border patrols tried to attack her, maybe they would recognize her? Or at least be kind enough to guide her home. With This black cat's luck they would attack and send her back to her 'fake' clan. Thinking about AshClan she began to wonder 'Will they like me?' She began to close her Dark eyes imagining her family. 'My dad must be a big and strong warrior, and maybe he can be my mentor when i get there! And i must have siblings...Maybe we can train together! Oh i wonder what my mom is like! Maybe she is nice and she will take me in again...' with all these happy thoughts she opened her eyes and began to run faster, oh how exciting! Her body effortlessly carried her across the lands and hopefully soon she would reach the gathering place and be one step closer to home.

[atrb=width,400,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=242610] Leopardpaw had decided on an early patrol, not necessarily to impress Easternsky, but to get away from camp for a moment. He could barely stand some of the mocking from the other apprentices of his and Dapplepaw's affection towards one another. Snorting in annoyance the spotted apprentice trotted along, not caring about the borders or doing an actual patrol. It was far too early for any enemy clans or cats to be up and planning an attack. Besides, he was more than enough to take on any apprentice except perhaps Seapaw and Flamepaw. Those two seemed the strongest of all the apprentices. Inhaling he caught a scent he had not expected to. Stopping in his tracks the golden spotted tabby glanced in the direction of the scent. A she-cat? Of Soulclan? What was a cat from there doing all the way over here? Hissing in annoyance at a cat disturbing his morning walk he trotted in her direction, slowing as he spotted her. A black she-cat, with dark eyes. Fitting of a Soulclan cat. Lowering into a stalking crouch he crept forward, hiding behind whatever he could find. Spying the she-cat he waited until they were about two fox-lengths from one another before standing up. "What are you doing on Ashclan territory?" he asked, growling lightly as his dark ears pressed against his golden skull. Amber gaze with the black eyeliner around it narrowed, ready to defend himself and his clan. He could take her, she looked rather weak. At least, that was what her fur made it appear as.

[atrb=width,469,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=ce6e13] Passing the gathering place she grinned, turning her head to face SoulClan she lifted her tail and head proudly and giggled. "Ha!, I made it onto AshClan Territory with no problems at all, so much for burning up!" she said smugly and turned on her way once more, she was leaving the only life she knew for a new one that she knew nothing about. The territory was different, she wasn't used to all this grass under her paws it kind of bothered her a bit but she was an AshClan cat now and she was going to have to deal with it! Approaching a hill she caught the scent of Rabbit and her mouth began to water, 'If i go try to catch a rabbit and AshClan catches me, they would have the fur off my back and eat me!' the idea made her shiver, besides SoulClan would find out and eat the scraps most likely. Trying to ignore the scent she continued on, missing the smell of a AshClan apprentice completely. She did not know a spotted tom was waiting for her to pass. "What are you doing on AshClan territory?" The voice made her jump, her back curved, and the hair on her body raised, Making her look like a black cat from horror movies. Blinking her amber eyes she twitched her ears and shook out her fur. "Goodness, nearly scared me to death!" she said softly and sat down curling her fluffy black tail around herself and began to groom her soft well groomed fur. Cute pink tongue flattening it down now that she was calm, glancing up at the tom she smiled at him with her eyes. "Whats a cute tom like yourself doing out here this time of day?" she purred gently as she lifted her head from grooming and stared at the tom, her eyes wandering his body. 'Could he be my brother?...No he is too spotty...well at least he is cute...' she thought to herself and smirked, Sweet talking her way into camp would be like taking Mice from a kit!

[atrb=width,400,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=242610] Leopardpaw was mildly surprised when she did not cower and apologize for trespassing and scurry off to her home. Yet no, she simply groomed her fur, complimented him and asked questions. A snort of annoyance escaped his nostrils as he watched her be so calm. "I don't know if I would be so calm if I was trespassing and a cat caught you,"he said in an annoyed tone. He seemed not to have heard her comment, until that moment. Cute? No one had called him that except Dapplepaw, and it should only be that, he thought with a firm nod. "Compliment some tom that cares,"he said with a dismissive flick of his tail, doing his best to ignore it. He needed to find out her purpose here, she was only an apprentice. Hardly a scouting mission, and she seemed to calm. Inhaling he did not smell any others, she had come alone. "Why are you here?"he asked, mildly enjoying the idea of catching a prisoner, taking her back to the clan and gaining some praise from Easternsky, who seemed to only have criticisms for him. Shaking his spotted pelt out he looked back at her, she was pretty, the black coat and dark eyes, unique. But nothing like Dapplepaw. Flicking his tail he remained standing, refusing to let his guard down should this be a trick. Flicking his tail he continued to wait for her to answer him, yet kept an ear behind him should he hear the morning patrol coming. Then they could deal with her, and he could gain some praise within the clan. Rising he took a tentative step towards her, feeling the ground crunch beneath his paws on the grass, Newleaf would be welcomed. He could use some warmth and cool water to swim in. "I'm Leopardpaw, I don't think I've seen you at gatherings before,"he said deciding to be polite. She had done nothing to make him worry she might be about to harm him or his clan. Besides why would an apprentice wander this far by herself, she was quite a long ways from Soulclan, judging by her scent. What warrior would allow her to leave. Easternsky would have his pelt if he wandered into another clan's territory like that. Doing Speaking Thinking "Your cat talking"

[atrb=width,469,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=ce6e13] The black she-cat flicked her tail gently her mind began to wander the idea of being with a real family, would they like her? However her thoughts where interrupted by the spotted apprentice. "I don't know if I would be so calm if I was trespassing and a cat caught you," She flicked her ear and shook out her fur, Trespassing? she was not trespassing! This was her home now! She was going to live here and that was that! Determined apprentice wouldn't have it any other way, when she wanted something nothing could get in her way! She was going to respond however his next words made her flinch inwardly. "Compliment some tom that cares," Even though his response surprised her she shrugged it off and watched him some more, He seemed calm though. If another apprentice had gone into SoulClan territory it probably would be attacked no questions asked. Yawning the She-cat twitched her whiskers and inhaled the toms scent, it wasn't familiar in any way so then it must be confirmed that he was not her brother. Good. "Why are you here?" This made her puff up her chest proudly, standing she twitched her ear and grinned. As if she were some princess that had returned from a long journey and expected to be welcomed with open arms. "I'm here to take my rightful place as an AshClan apprentice!" She said it with pride and dignity, she seemed so sure of herself anyone could believe her...right? "I'm Leopardpaw, I don't think I've seen you at gatherings before," She stayed in her proud position and shook her shoulders happily. "I am Lostpaw, I have not yet been to a gathering so that may explain it..." She then decided to turn on the charm once more, why not? She enjoyed a challenge. "...If i met a strong apprentice like yourself I think i would of remembered." she purred gently and took another dainty step forward, eyes batting gently as she put on an innocent visage.

[atrb=width,400,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=242610] Blinked at her next words, rightful place as an Ashclan apprentice? He had never seen her before or smelled her, nor did he remember any of the cats mentioning a kit being taken or anything to that effect. Was it all hush hush, or did no one really remember her? Flicking his slim tail he took a step towards her, curiosity radiating from his fur, "What do you mean exactly? What rightful place? You're a Soulclan cat,"his said in confusion. What had he missed? There was most likely quite a bit the tom did not know about Ashclan. He had been found as a stray himself, wandering the territory by Easternsky, she was not deputy then, but had found him nonetheless. Now he was her apprentice. Thinking of his mentor forced a sigh from him. What would she say to him once he returned to camp, not having told any cat he was leaving and returning with another cat, claiming to be a part of Ashclan? He could only imagine the scolding and consequences. He would be searching the elders for ticks for moons. As she continued to talk his attention returned to her, never been to a gathering? That would explain why he had not seen her. Well, I suppose we should get going if you are going to be at Ashclan, I can only imagine the talking to I am going to get from leaving and bringing you back,"he said shrugging. What's done was done. His eyes rolled as she tried to compliment him again. "Sorry, the compliments will have to be fished for some other tom,"he said not caring to mention he was basically taken. It was flattering he would admit that, to himself that is,but that was all. He cared for Dapplepaw, he barely knew this cat, and it sounded as if she handed out compliments rather lightly. Too lightly. Doing Speaking Thinking "Your cat talking"

[atrb=width,469,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=ce6e13] Flicking her ear she grinned, eyes stopped batting as she flinched to his response. "What do you mean exactly? What rightful place? You're a SoulClan cat," Puffing up her chest once more she looked at him sharply with her amber gaze. "I am a AshClan cat! My SoulClan mother told me so! She doesn't lie, why else would i have such a cruel name? Who would curse a kit with the name Lostkit! Hmm?" She harshly spat. She could be sweet tempered, specially to toms but when they get in her way she gets upset. Lostpaw was such a confident cat she had forgotten she was currently seen as a threat, however things seemed to be turning around and hopefully her cruel words didn't ruin her chances. "Well, I suppose we should get going if you are going to be at AshClan, I can only imagine the talking to I am going to get from leaving and bringing you back," Once he spoke she flattened her fur and felt her skin grow hot, Oh so he was going to take her, After she just made a fool of herself. Clearing her throat she swayed her tail and nodded "Yeah, i would love to meet my family before Sunhigh! Oh! I'm so excited!" she purred ecstatically and took a step forward, a devilish grin soon followed. "Sorry, the compliments will have to be fished for some other tom," So he didn't like her flirting with him, really? She had tried several times and yet he still responded in that same way, Well fine! Lostpaw enjoyed a challenge and this would be a big one, she had not known of his love interest nor did she care. Lostpaw was just in it for the fun of causing drama. Lifting her fluffy tail she purred "Lead the way, Handsome." She cooed as she circled him gently attempting to brush her tail under his chin, for a younger cat of only eight moons, she was stuffed full of villainous tricks.

[atrb=width,400,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=242610] Leopardpaw listened with vague interest until she gave a miniature version of her history. So, she was born to Ashclan cats, but was raised by a Soulclan queen. And true, he could not deny that Lostpaw was a cruel name, almost a red flag for the fact that she was lost, had been found, something not right within her own clan. "How were you found in Soulclan? Or did they steal you?" he asked trying to understand. Flicking his long tail the tom continued to mull it over, hopefully someone in the clan could clear it up. Perhaps Easternsky knew, she seemed fairly knowledgable. Nodding to himself he decided to admit his own past to her, she had shared her past, so perhaps a trade. He would share his. "I am not born of Ashclan myself, Easternsky found me just inside the territory as a kit when she was a new warrior. Now she's deputy and my mentor," he said with a hint of pride. He was proud to be Easternsky's apprentice, although it may not show. His lack of caring in his training, his lack of belief in Starclan. All things pointing that he may not want to be a warrior, but at heart he did. It was him. He was a warrior. He would prove that he was to the cats who abandoned him. A quiet determination had always flooded through the tom. The golden spotted tom had thought they were past all this flirting when she explained her past to him, apparently not. His lip curled in annoyance as he felt her tail slide beneath his chin, a teasing thing. Sighing he decided she would apprently need to told by some other cat he was taken. "Let's go," he muttered walking a few paces ahead of her, rather determined to keep some space between them. The sooner they made it to the camp the better.

"I am not born of Ashclan myself, Easternsky found me just inside the territory as a kit when she was a new warrior. Now she's deputy and my mentor," "Let's go," She began walking with him obediently, the grin was still hinting at mischief on her face. She was interested in his past, it was similar to hers actually! However she wasn't found by the deputy, that was so much more interesting! "Wow the deputy?! That is so cool!!! now you have the deputy as your mentor!! Wow so lucky..." she purred and quickened her pace to catch up to him closing some of the distance "And i was found after some volcano thing....I guess...she did have to come on the territory but she thought everyone was dead after the eruption and just kept me...when she found out they survived she ended up just not saying anything i guess...so now here i am!" she purred and looked at him gently with her amber eyes. Her beautiful eyes were nearly identical to her just as gorgeous mother, and it was obvious that one day Lostpaw might be just as pretty. However that wasn't important, what is important was that Lostpaw get to AshClan so she could meet her true family, and be welcomed with open arms and meows of delight! She was so excited, were they close yet? It had to be nearly Sunhigh by now! Well maybe not that late but still! she had been out since before the sun, and she was getting so hungry that her stomach even called out in protest to her walking. The idea of hunting was not on her mind however, she was determined to get to camp before she at and when she set her mind of something it was set. As they walked it was almost as if she had forgotten to flirt with the tom, she was too focused on getting there! "Are we there yet Leopardpaw, I'm starving! And my paws ache...." she mewed like a kit in pain, probably more annoying then cute. "Talking" 'Thinking' "Acting" "Your character speaking" {Word Count; 320 Ooc; She just wants to be home xD }
