Listen to the Musnt Child}}

Losteye chuckled in amusement as he watched the other cat in the tree. It was apparent that she wasn't used to being in trees, but she wasn't awful. She balanced herself and watched him, her eyes still glaring at him through small little slits. "We think that they are graceful in the trees." He said, trying to compliment the pretty she-cat, "We just don't like when they look at us like we are an apprentice. We are much more than that." He held his head high and smiled, it was crooked and could only match his strange looking face. "don't they think so? They wouldn't want us to do that to them would they?" He arched an invisable eyebrow at her then hopped to her branch, "We just listen to our leader, and we are to spy on a clan tonight."

He stood dangerously close to Confessionsong looking her in the eyes. No other cat in moons has delt with him this long. Not even losteyes leader could stand to look at him for extended periods of time. He jumped to the ajacent tree gazing at her. "How do they deal with us?" he waited for her to come to the tree he was sitting on.

Confessionsong gave a little smirk and rolled her eyes when she got the hint he thought she was good at being in a tree. "I'm no bird, honestly this tree thing I might have to get use to." she mewed looking around. She then let her gaze fall back onto the tom andlistened to him closely. She then tiled her head to the side seeing he brought up having other clans look at them like apprentices. She gave a shake of her head in agreeing with him and still fell siltent and listened. "Tonight? We are spying on a clan?..Well, what clan are we going to spy on then Losteye?

She then found the warrior standing very close to her yet she didnt move or let her guard down. She looked him back in the eye and let her breathing go slow. In a blink of an eye she saw him jump to another branch and saw he was waiting for her. She then turned around on the branch and hopped up next ot him. She lost her back paw and clung to the branch and was then able to pull herself up and sit next to Losteye.

"Why would you ask such a thing? I can deal with so many cats its crazy. Your different, just like me and well, I find that cool. I feel like no one understands me and I'm alone in this clan. I may look like a clan cat but really, inside me I dont feel like one at all." she mewed looking at him in the eye as she talked. She then gave a smile and asked, "How do they deal with us?"

His grace rivaled that of other tree climbing creatures as he walked the brances like an overdone gymnast both grace and agility twined together into one as he talked to the she-cat, "We never said that they were a bird." his tail swayed from side to side, Losteyes small stature helped him stay on the branches and keep his balance, "If they were a bird, wouldn't they have feathers?" He pictured Confession song with big gaudy feathers and a beak over her maw and he chuckled slightly, "They are prettier as a cat, not a bird."

The dark night sky was like a blanket, velvet black with little pinpricks to let the light stars show through. The only other light source that shone on the Shadowclan territory was the moon which was almost full. "We are going to spy on thunderclan, would they like to join us? as long as they are quiet, we will take them."His voice wasn't rude, or annoyed. It was calm and gentle almost as he watched Confession song jump to the branch next to him. "We consider They Shadowclan." he could feel the warmth of the she-cats pelt next to him, it was different. Different good. but something inside him hurt. Hurt when he heard how she felt, "We accept them" He took a deep breath and looked over the ground floor, seeing a mouse scurry around to get some food. "We don't know how they deal with us. But we bring important infromation to the clan. That is probably why they accept us."

Confessionsong gave a purr, the first purr she made in moons. "Well thank you, I like being a cat also, your not prey if your a cat." She then looked at him and heard they were heading to Thunderclan. She didnt move or blink but nodded. "I can be quiet. Its second nauture to me honestly. I never talk. I dont know who to talk to or what to talk about, so I just stay quiet half my days." she mewed shrugging as her yellow eyes started to glow in the dark night.

Well you spy, and thats what you do. It's good you do that. At least your in this clan for some reason.." she mewed then taking her eyes away from Losteye.

[kitteh]

Losteye noted the sound in the She-cats laugh sounded happy. Happier than anything that he'd heard in moons. He smiled knowing that it was his doing. He made her happy, "We think that being a cat is better than anything." He looked at the ground, "Anything smaller than us is prey, and anything bigger is stupid." He shook his head and laughed "We are smarter than the dogs, and the twolegs."He twitched his tail in amusement. "As long as they can be quiet." He flicked his tail at her and shook his head at her, there was something sad about how she didn't believe she belonged. "Starclan has a reason for them. As they have a reason for us to be alive" He blinked his eye and jumped to the next tree. "Let us go." He Begain to jump from tree to tree, in a few quick motions. kick jump land, balance, and again. He was moving at speeds that would surprise his leader.

[promise]

Confessionsong had to admit, being a cat was better then anything. She agreed that anything bigger then them were stupid. She gave a little laugh about that also and let out a clam breath. She then saw him jump to another tree and another. She had a bit of wordiness in her eye and saw his speed and hoped she wouldn't fall out of the tree.

She then hoped to the next tree and was fine. She then hoped to the next and almost lost her balance but was able to help herself again. she then picked up her pace and was almost next to the tom. She felt the wind in her face and didn't dare look down. In a way she was glad she was doing this.

[kitteh]

The wind rushed by him- fast and furrious like a train shooting through a tunnel. Nothing could stop this cat from getting what it wanted; and at this moment, he wanted to do his job, he wanted to cross the border into thunderclan and get the infromation that he needed to tell his leader, then he could go home- and sleep. Go home and gently rest his head on the ground and dream of sweet dreams.

With his paws hitting the bark and astounding speeds, and the noise not making above a small mouse scurring around in the underbrush, he crossed the border and now smelled the familier smell of terrible thunderclan. He slowed his pace and looked at the she-cat, "They seem a bit tired." He smiled, and waited for her to catch up, "We have been doing this for moons, forgive us if we go to fast." He flicked his tail to the side and continued to move once the cat stepped in stride beside him, "Once we get close to the camp we'll have to pick a good tree and wait."

The camp came in site, and he jumped to a hig branch, his eye scanning the ground. "We will stay here, they should go to that tree, " He swished his head to the ajacent tree, "Can they do it?"

Confessionsong finally got next to his side andd tried hard not to pant like a dog next to him. She shook her head, "No, no its fine. Its your job you do how you want to do it." she mewed. Truth was, she was tired. Why did she sign up for this?

She then listened to him and found they were on Thunderclan territory. She looked around for any cats that might be around but nothing. She watched him jump to a higher branch and tell her to go and jump on the one he was looking at. Confessionsong sat still for a minute and then shook her head to herself. "Sure." she whispered. She let the tip of her tail twitch and with a leap she was able to get on the branch. It seemed she was getting better at this. She turned around on the branch and looked at Losteye and waited for him to tell her what else she had to do.

[kitteh]

Time stopped as the smell of another cat lingered in the air above him. At first he assumed it was the thunderclan territory, maybe the smell made its way into the trees from there. But then the sight of the other cat sent him into complete shock and awe. "Hide." He mewed furriously. Jumping to a tree, feeling his paw slip. He almost slides as he grips into the wood. "Overe here." The tree he was hiding under had more shade, they couldn't see him from there right?

[promise]

Confessionsong then smelled a Thunderclan cat and heard Losteyes voice. She looked up at him and held her breath when he slipped but then got his balance.

She then looked back down onto the ground and nwanted to see what was going on down their. Yet she listened to the tom and dug her claws into the bark of the tree and made her way up to losteye. She got onto a branch close to his and waited in the shadows with him.

[kitteh]

Fear fell over the tom. Never has a cat ever gotten this close to him. Normaly the one eyed tom would sit in the branch and follow the cat with silent steps and open ears. The fear didn't come from there. On no. Something much more devistating mader the fear enter Losteye. confessionsong was with him. A cat that wasn't experianced in this. Truthfully he shouldn't have brought her, but they weren't going to get close enough to have a cat this close. That wasn't in the plan. If she got hurt, both clans would know about it- and soon the other clans. This could bring a uprising amung all the clans.

He peered down at the cat walking by them, and held his breath as he recognized the cat. It was their leader. Halostar padded underthem. They had to get to a safer tree. Somewhere away from the leader. He gently nodded with his head into the she-cats pelt. He then nodded to his head a tree further away, where not even the leader could see them. The only thing was that the distance was far. Taking a deep breath, he sat on his haunches and threw himself into the other tree, barily making it. He prayed to starclan that she could make it across, but he didn't know if she could.

[promise]

ooc: do you want her to fall or is Halostar the cat that will catch them? Up to you. I can just have her keep walking.

Confessionsong kept her eyes on the ground and felt a wind blow by her. She gave a shiver and then saw her, Halostar. Her heart stopped but she couldn't look away. The Calio leader padded slowly under them but didnt seem like she would be stopping.

She felt Losteye nudge her and she looked to another tree. It was far for her. Her heart raced and she wanted to speak yet knew she couldnt. She gave a gulp and got up and watched the tom leap and barely make it. She let out a breath and stood at the edge of the tree branch. She flattened her ears and didn't make a move. She was just about to take a leap when her claw made a scrape on the branch and made it seem loud. She closed her eyes and prayed the leader didnt hear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Halostar padded under the trees and kept her eyes and ears opened. She was more of a night cat then anything along with her liking the long walks she made. All seemed to be going well till she heard something.

The leader stopped in her tracks and gave a growl. Her claws came out and she fell dead quiet. She scanned the area with her amber eyes and kept a low growl. She lifted her nose and smelled the air, not catching anything. She stayed where she was and listened to see if she would hear anything else.

Snowflower felt the cool night air run through her fur as she walked beside her leader, discussing what preparations the clan would be taking to get through the next leaf-bare. Her paws made no noise as she walked quietly beside Halostar. The night seemed calm and all was well with clan at the moment.


Snowflower heard the noise too. She stopped and looked around, her senses heightened. Smelling the air she noticed something that didn’t belong in the familiar smells of the forest and her clan but it wasn’t very strong since the breeze had stopped. “I smell something out of place.” She growled quietly to her leader. Un sheathing her claws she glanced around, searching for anything out of place.

[promise]

Halostar took a step forward and hissed, "So, i'm not the only one who has a weird feeling.." She gazed around and still nothing seemed out of place. Yet something was not right. "We cant be under an attack..this late at night, the clan are at peace!" she protested.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Confessionsong opened her eyes and then saw the deputy was right next to the leader. She started shaking and she looked at Losteye hoping he would help her.

[snowy]

“Yes, I feel that something is wrong as well.” Snowflower muttered. She continued to look around trying to find the intruder. Sniffing the air Snowflower was able to pin point what she had scented a few moments earlier. “Do you smell Shadowclan?” she whispered so that no one nearby could hear her other than Halostar. She had caught the scent in a moment when the breeze stirred the air. It was nearby. But where? She asked herself. It definitely would be odd for us to be under attack, but then again you never know what the other clans are thinking.
