Cricketsong blushed, realizing he'd only been joking. "Heh, that's good," she said quietly and flicked her tail. "So um... Anything new..?"

During this moment, Flameclaw had been using his eagle vision to confirm that the fox they were fighting was the only one in the area. He briefly managed to notice that presence, but before he could spend the time needed to identify what it was, Peregrinesoul's words grabbed his attention. He turned to Leaf to go through with his Healer's orders, only to find her running off. But she wasn't so much as running away, but more like running into the river and downstream. Flameclaw was about to give chase to make sure she would be okay, when he noticed that Peregrinesoul's feather necklace was missing. He quickly realized that Leaf probably noticed as well, so he decided that ending the fight quickly was his best bet. The fox had thrown both Brightfire and Peregrinesoul, and was now leaping at his Healer. Flameclaw quickly got between them, once again stabbing his claws upwards into its jaw. He then quickly rotates above it, stabbing his claws into its shoulders. Then using his own weight, and the explosive power of his muscles, he managed to throw the fox backwards. With its belly now exposed, Flameclaw went in to finish it off. He was meet by the flailing of the fox's paws, allowing him to only land a few blows before one of the flails landed a good strike across his shoulders, ripping open some cuts. However, this seemed to be enough, because as soon as the fox got back up, it took off running, thankfully in the direction of the Tribe's border. Mink slunk away before Flameclaw could turn to see her, chuckling to herself as she vanished into the underbrush. The tribe had no idea she was there, of what was waiting around the corner. Just beyond their territory... Peregrinesoul growled in frustration as she saw Flameclaw come back to fight, ignoring her direct order. However, her attention was drug back to the fight as she leaped in to help tackle the fox. As it ran, the Healer let out a victorious battle cry, which was surprisingly echoed by a SCREE! from overhead. Peregrinesoul looked up curiously to see that the sound was from a peregrine falcon overhead, causing her to purr before remembering that she was still missing her necklace. "My feather!" She hissed, looking around frantically.

The moment that Peregrinesoul yelled out about her feather, Leaf was walking back over. She had the feather in her jaws, and though her eyes were filled with fear at being so close to other cats, she still got close enough to drop the feather onto the dry ground next to The healer. She backs off quickly, speaking very quietly and avoiding looking into her eyes, "Im so sorry you lost this helping me out..... I heard from Flame that these things are pretty important to cats in your tribe...."

Orchidkit frowned a little as she looked at her brother. She normally didn't like taking Minnowkit with her, he was always so slow. It was easy for her to leap and clump over rocks and fallen trees, he always just stumbled through. "You're always so show when we go out together Minnowkit. You stumble over the smallest twigs." She complained softy. Minnowkit pouted, lashing his stubby tail in frustration. "That's not my fault! But I can protect you." He insisted, pawing at the ground in frustration. "In case a coyote or a fox attacks you!" He hissed, eyes narrowing slightly before he settled. "Please?" He begged, flattening his ears slightly in a pleading look.

Grasswhistle blinked calmly at Cricketsong, a gentle, relaxed gesture. "Not really. I've been working with Morningpaw lately and she's been improving since the last group training session. Especially with her balance." He answered, perking up with a prideful look on his face. "What about you, Cricketsong? Anything new with you?" The Bengal tom questioned, tilting his head.
Peregrinesoul visibly relaxed at the sight of Leaf with her feather, carefully picking up the necklace with her mouth and using one paw to help guide the vine necklace over her head again. "Thank you, young one." She mewed, dipping her head to smooth her chest fur. She noticed the young cat's fear and she tried to look as nonthreatening as she could. "No need to be afraid, rogue. We will not harm you, even if you are on our territory. But you are correct, these feathers are incredibly important to the members of the Tribe of Wings." She stated before she sighed. "I do not recommend staying on the Tribe's territory unless you plan to join. Others of the Tribe may attack you for trespassing, but because you were in danger on the edge of the territory, and you were kind enough to retrieve my feather, I will let you off with a mere warning unless you intend to join."

Leaf had sat and listened when the healer was explaining, somehow managing to quell her fear. But the moment Peregrinesoul had suggested she join the tribe, her eyes filled with an immense amount of fear. Her body visibly recoiled at the thought of constantly being near so many different cats. Her mind, in its terror, locked onto the many worse case scenarios that could happen, and her body began to shake. She was now fully in her flight response, and was about to run, when Flameclaw came to her side. Her whispers gently into her ear, and she seemed to calm down slightly. The only words that could be heard between their exchange was this. "Im not going to suggest that you join the tribe. While i know nothing will happen to you while you are a part of it, i know that as you are now, you cant handle that many cats. So I think its best that you take the warning, and leave the territory, and try to stay away from where you know those other rogue cats to be. But if you need help, and are in danger, please, don t hesitate to come and find me. I will always save you when you need me too."

"I'm glad to hear that," Cricketsong mewed. She kneaded the ground lightly with her paws as she thought of something to respond with. "Um... not really to be completely honest..." she mewed, "I'm pretty lame."

Peregrinesoul narrowed her eyes in confusion, her torn left ear flicking. "I suggest you take the warning, if you are so afraid. You are young, and I don't wish to see further harm come to you." She stated firmly, rising to her paws and turning away from the frightened rouge. "Brightfur, Flameclaw. We must be going and refresh the border markings." She instructed, flicking her tail as she padded towards the border.
Grasswhistle frowned at Cricketsong's statement that she was lame. "You aren't lame." He started, his tone a little harsh before he cleared his throat. "I mean, you've got four perfectly functioning legs. That's pretty far from being lame. And I think you're a pretty cool cat." He added sheepishly, awkwardly smoothing the fur on his shoulders, despite the fur already being in order and clean.

Cricketsong blushed. "Thanks, Grasswhistle. That makes me feel a bit better," she mewed. She didn't lead an exciting life but at least her friends didn't think she was lame.

Flameclaws ears flick as he hears his healers words. His tail brushes against Leafs side, and she took the hint and took off running. She was heading out of the territory, so she followed the warning. Flameclaw moved to follow PeregrineSoul, but he now finally noticed the pain coming from his wounded shoulder, and he stumbles slightly. He quickly gathered himself, and follows his healer looking at her wondering at the sudden shift in tension in the air.

Grasswhistle nodded, his expression softening. "Good. I'm glad to be of help!" He purred, kneading the ground impatiently. "Hey, wanna go hunting with me or something? I was planning on visiting Littlepaw for a little bit today and thought that some company might be nice." He mewed, his gaze drifting to the ground briefly. "I haven't gone to talk to her since before Owlstrike died... And I feel bad." He admitted.
Peregrinesoul gave Flameclaw a questioning look, though she waited until Leaf was out of earshot. "I admire your depth of loyalty for your friend. But should it come down to it, I expect your loyalty to lie with the Tribe." She mewed lowly, leading him a little ways from Brightfur. The dusky tabby didn't seem to be angry exactly, but guarded, rather. "Remember, we're a family here. We protect each other as our guides protect each individual."

Who's littlepaw?)
"Hunting sounds great," Cricketsong mewed. She felt honroed that he was inviting her to go to his sister's grave. "We can find some pretty flowers to take to her."

Flameclaws ears once again flick, and he shacks his head slightly, not at her words, but from the pain coming from his shoulder. He quickly replied, "Believe me, I understand that. Hopefully it will never come where i need to pick between the two. I will willingly give everything I have to protect this tribe, as you accepted me when i didnt even accept myself. But I can not turn my back on Leaf. She is the only cat I have ever done right for. I cant, under my own conscious, turn my back on her. Im the one cat she will trust without a second thought. Can I betray her like that? That only makes me feel like im going back into the whole i dug my whole life, instead of my current goal of clawing out of it. I know this might not be pleasant to hear, but i guess its only going to be another decision in my life i will have to make."
