Being the cat she was, Thorn took pleasure in the silence the two shared, although her hazel eyes glanced over once or twice, viewing the Willow out of the corner of her eye. Even so it remained a mystery what had drug the old she-cat to tentative actions of mercy for the younger cat, though she would call it senility at this point. Much like what brought her to following this dream to this group of cats that she could have abandoned immediately and yet here she was. Alas, if the ancestors called her here, there must have been a reason -- although whatever the reason, she didn't intend to stay when this was all over. However, at this time, she believed they all felt the same. After all, this many cats... they couldn't stay together like this forever. Storm had finished his conversation with the two bearing kits, it seeming they didn't require his aid after all. Resuming his position, he kept his eyes on all the stragglers, making not of the old she-cat guiding the pregnant cat along with a sense of relief. He'd meant to go back for the stranger but alas his distraction with the kits carried along had prevented him from making it soon, to that end he felt grateful the grizzled old she-cat seemed a little less bitter to that extent. The large gray tom continued along with the group, making sure to note anyone that might have been in need otherwise. Despite knowing as much as everyone else, despite knowing them all to be strangers, the kind of tom he was just wouldn't allow him to abandon even the weak and weary among them -- determined to offer what he could.

(Alright! Minor skip time! ) Time Skip : The cats traveled on until it was around midday. With the forest now far behind them and out of sight, the only thing around them at the moment seems to be an nearly endless meadow. The only signs of it’s end come from the small farm nearby and the very distant mountains. They have found some shelter under one of the scarce large trees in the grassland. They plan to take a small break here before continuing their journey.
---The sun had finally risen fully into a cloudy sky. Luckily there was no rain on the cats today but a chilly breeze did ruffle a few pelts. As they day went on, hunger and weariness began to grow in the cats. Oak noticed it, feeling a great deal of it himself and was among others to suggest that they stop for a proper break. With mostly everyone in agreement, he had lead them over to a shady tree, finding himself more comfortable under a tree than under the open sky. He stretched out his paws and gave a massive yawn. “Ah! I’m already tired!” He exclaimed, looking over at Ash. “But I am more hungry than tired I supposed...."
Ash twitched his whiskers at Oak’s subtle hinting. “I guess that’s my cue to go for a hunt then...” He mumbled with a hint of amusement.
---
Apple had traveled alongside Copper for most of their time. Now that they were stopped, she was looking around with big eyes. She had never really hunted for herself and usually just got free meals from various two-legs. The young cat wondered if she should give hunting a try now. Especially since she was going to be a wild cat now.
---
Roxy gave a tired sigh and quickly flopped down onto her side. Her paws were so sore. Though, it was likely because this was the farthest she had ever walked and wasn’t even a full day yet. The kitty-pet felt her stomach begin to growl and she slowly sat up. She glanced around, wondering about what prey was out there to catch.

Willow sighed heavily in relief at the sight of shelter. She dashed forwards at a trot, practically collapsing in the shade of the giant tree. She stretched out, enjoying the feeling of dappled warmth on her pelt, before curling up in restful bliss.
Aether glanced around for a moment, before pausing to shake out his fur. He was pretty sure that there was a few thorns and leaves stuck in the longer parts of his fur, but couldn't seem to shift them. He sat down with a sigh, and started picking the bits out of his fur. After he was done, he stood up again, noticing that same cats were going hunting. "I should do go hunt, too," He mewed thoughtfully to himself.

Bone was crouched down walking slowly towards a rabbit. His eyes were narrowed as he got ready for the chase. He jumped and grabbed the scared rabbit biting down hard. He felt it go limp in his mouth and stood up. Food for him he guessed. He walked over to the tree sitting back in his place. He looked at the group of cats hoping they could figure out how to hunt. He bit into his rabbit feeling his hunger start to go away.

Bandit The tom's feet were sore from all the walking, but he wasn't thinking about that. He could hear his stomach growling, and he was certain it was audible to the others as well. Then again, he couldn't be the only one who was hungry. He looked around the meadow. It was going to be more difficult to hunt out here, and he wasn't the most experienced hunter either.
Jackie Jackie stretched out under the tree. She hoped that this chill would disappear, but her coat was thick enough to stay warm if it didn't. She found that she wasn't overly hungry, as she'd managed to find something the day before they all met up. She was, however, a bit thirsty, and hoped that they'd come across some source of water sometime soon. For now though, she rested near the base of the tree.
Nimbus As he watched the others mill around, he realized that he too, was getting hungry. However, the white tom had little experience with hunting, and had never hunted in a meadow this large. He might stand a chance if he could hide in the tall grass, as he was fairly silent. Maybe if he could tag along, he could learn from some of these more experienced cats. He walked over towards Ash. "If you're going to hunt, mind if I tag along?"

( Falconwing Sorry I forgot to reply to you! It’s like Soulie said, not much has happened yet aside from the cats all meeting up at Mallard’s Point and then deciding to head out. You can jump with your cats either already amongst the group or just reaching the group as they could have left late or something along those lines c: ) Ash turned his head as Nimbus approached. He seemed a bit reluctant to speak with strangers but nodded his head. “I don’t mind.” He replied. The rogue turned his head to look over at Aether nearby and decided it would probably be a good idea to include more experienced cats on this trip. Plus, Ash knew he’d feel more comfortable around cats he was familiar with. “Aether! Do you want to come hunting with us as well?” He asked. --- Apple had noticed Bone was one of the first to return back with prey. She tilted her head and bounced over towards the tom. “Uh hi!” She meowed giving a small wave in greeting. She paused, feeling there was something familiar about the young cat before her. But she could figure it out and merely brushed it off.

Bone dropped his rabbit, "Hello" he said looking her over. "You came over to see if you can share your prey with me, haven't you?" He guessed. He shook his head, "That was rude of me. Im Bone" he introduced himself. "Were you a Kitty pet before we started this journey?" He asked curious.

Although as bright and energetic as always, Whiskers wasn't impervious to the exhaustion growing among the cats, his tail drooping some from the long hike. Even so, he didn't seem unbearably so and with the mention of hunting, his ears perked once more. "Oh, Oh, Take me! I wanna catch a rabbit!" he exclaimed, his eyes bright and all too ready to put his efforts to good use. After all, as far as the young cat was concerned, there would be time to rest while everyone was eating and he was well determined to catch enough for the whle group! Or, well, at least a few of the cats. Perhaps he was also excited by the prospect of getting to interact with some of the strangers along side his elder brother. Thorn watched as the pregnant cat trotted off, seeming somehow satisfied by the rest. However, as much as she would like to join in rest, she needed food herself and she hardly believed this riff-raff were about to hunter her anything. Those with friends within the group could likely laze about whilst another hunter for them, but in reality the old cat likely wouldn't have accepted charity anyhow. Turning from the group, the mainly gray gay stalked away to do her own hunting, well skilled due to age and the necessity to be on her own. Even the aching of her joints wouldn't soon lead her to relying on others. Taking the hint that it was time to hunt, and very willing to keep his promise of keeping all those fed that he could, he shook some dust from his fur, and with that when his exhaustion -- or at least so he'd lead others to believe. "Anyone who needs help learning how to hunt properly is free to accompany me." He called out, waiting for a short time for any interested to gather.

Nimbus flicked his tail in thanks, and glanced at the younger cat. He'd never had rabbit before, although he's seen one once before. "I'm afraid I'm not the most experienced hunter, but I'd be happy to help." At the very least, he thought as he stretched, he could carry prey back. Standing back up, he bowed a head in greeting. "I'm Nimbus by the way."

Bandit's ears perked up at the other cat's offer. He wouldn't have asked, but the idea of having somebody act as a teacher was too good of an opportunity to pass up. He got to his feet and trotted over to Storm. "I would like to join you if I could. I've been a free cat for a short amount of time, so I'm afraid that my hunting skills aren't very good."

The large gray cat dipped his head in greeting to the younger cat as he approached, pleasant expression on his face. "I'd be happy to have you." Storm replied before a soft chuckle rumbled in his throat, "And worry not, I don't mind offering what aid I can. You may call me Storm." it wouldn't do to forgo introductions, after all, it was merely common courtesy when helping one another. Even so he didn't immediately move away to head off for hunting, wanting to be certain any that wished to learned had amassed before heading out. "You look like a clever cat, though, I feel confident you'll learn fast."
Eagerness was something Whiskers never seemed to be lacking if nothing else, and between both the promise of learning a new manner of hunting and that of making friends, he was near vibrating with excitement and his tail swung left and right with the very same. His wide eyes turned to the cat approaching Ash, purring with a glee perhaps unsuiting of the long journey they had all undertook but nevertheless there he was doing it. As the cat's shared introductions, barely managing to remain patient as Ash introduced them both, Whiskers chimed out immediately after, "Hello!" He truly did seem to fail at acting like the adult cat he should have been. "Can we go now?" He added, his paws working the ground as if they might just run off without the rest of him any second.

OOC: Okay so I'm just going to dive right in. I'm going to have my cats catching up with the group, so if someone out hunting wants to find them and bring them to the main group that would be awesome.
BIC: Jagg flattened his golden ears and lashed his tail back and forth as he quickly picked up his front right paw. "Gahhh!", he exclaimed with a hiss. Not only was he still pretty upset about having to leave his home, now he had a thorn in his paw. Beside him Nova, a black she-cat whom he had met up with in the forest as he was leaving, quickly came to his aid. "Whats wrong?", she asked him in a concerned tone. Jagg turned away from her not wanted to be treated like a kit. "Its just a thorn, I'm fine", he meowed bluntly before he started to lick at his paw pad trying to work out the thorn. After a couple of moments he was able to pull out the long black thorn followed by a couple of drops of blood. Quickly licking it till it stopped bleeding the tan tom gingerly placed his paw back down and carried on with a faint limp.
Nova just puffed at the toms pride and took the lead purposefully moving quicker so he would have to run to catch up with her. The scent of the group was still strong and getting stronger the further the pushed on. She would have left earlier and would have been able to leave with the group but she had been trapped by in a small clump of brush with twolegs all around her. Once she was able to get away without them seeing her the only cat left was Jagg, a rouge, and her current travel companion. Looking ahead of her there was nothing but tall grass everywhere and her heart began to long for the tall trees and the cool shade that they provided.

Here)
Gorse took it upon himself to keep watch for danger. He keeps his eyes out for anything that might come after them. Being out in the open made him feel uneasy. Gorse flicked his ears as the others chatted.
Stone lazily groomed his fur. He lingered at the edge of the group not wanting to sit down awkwardly next to anyone. Stone was still afraid these cats would possibly hate him.
Mint was curled up as she casually dozed.

Stone looked up in surprise. "Oh hello." He said surprised someone was actually talking to him. "Um how are you doing?" He asked feeling a little weird now.

(Okay. I'll have Lighting in the group already. Do you have anyone to find a scared Rose?)
Lightning watched the cats around him unsure of everything that was happening. He wasn't used to being around so many cats at once but they had all been driven out of their home so he felt he could trust them. He watched other go off to hunt and debated following them.
Rose didn't know where to go or what to do. Her home had been destroyed and in a panic she had raced off with no sense of where she was going. She was lost now and though the fear wore off a little she was still so anxious. Her chest was tight and she felt herself slipping into panic once more.

Being ahead of Jagg Nightstream had thought that she has heard something and she stopped moving and lashed her plume tail as a signal for Jagg to be quiet as well. "Did you hear that?", she asked him quietly curious as to if the sandy tom had heard it too.
Jagg paused for a moment to listen and hearing nothing he took a couple of step forwards to stand beside Nova and started to smell the air. Sadly the wind was not in their favor for the direction in which the sound had originated. "Maybe we caught up to the group", he started and intensely scanned through the grass before them. "Whos there?", he called out after not seeing anything through the tall dry grass.
