(So, where exactly did I stop? I don't remember.) "Yeah," Darkkit replied. They'd reached the entrance to the cavern, where the waterfall thundered beside them, spraying mist onto Darkkit's fur. A narrow stone pathway led down to the ground below, where a large pine forest was growing beside the lake. Darkkit started down the wet path, padding carefully so he wouldn't slip. When he neared the bottom, his paws sank into the layer of fallen pine needles on the grass. He turned to see if Hailstorm had followed. "This place is amazing," he mewed as he looked around at the large trees. As he padded on the piles of pine needles, he paused to watch the surface of the lake. It shimmered and rippled from the fish swimming below. Hailstorm suddenly felt a pang of homesickness as he remembered his home in RiverClan. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Darkkit "Hmn," Darkkit murmured, as if agreeing, while silently he was thinking, It's okay. Could be better without all of the mean kits who live here, but he kept his thoughts to himself. "So— fishing lessons...?" he asked with uncertainty. (Here's where we left off, Hailstorm. :3 As for everyone else, I have to finish a history project now, so I'll get to your replies once I'm done.)

So, one of the key points in fishing is being very quiet, and waiting until an unsuspecting fish swims by and--" Hailstorm made a hooking gesture with his paw. "--whoosh! You have yourself a fish. It's not nearly as hard as it looks. Look! There's one over there," he pointed with his claw to a fat orange fish swimming slowly in the depths of the lake.

Goldspark padded quietly through the forest, thinking about her Clan. I wonder how they're doing. I hope SwiftClan isn't causing trouble again.She sighed deeply. To shake off the dark thoughts, she said: "Do you wanna play hide and seek?"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Snowkit Snowkit's eyes widened with surprise and confusion when she saw that Miststrike had begun to cry. Did I do something wrong? she wondered, feeling guilty. If so, what had she done? And how could she make it better? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nettlekit Nettlekit looked up from his spot by the river as he heard Maplestone's mew. He had just finished getting a drink from the stream, and a few droplets of water still clung to his whiskers. Noticing an unfamiliar she-cat standing next to Maplestone, he greeted, "Uh, hi," hoping he sounded polite. It wasn't every day a new cat wanted to meet him. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mistkit "Sure," Mistkit mewed, agreeing with Rattlesnake's suggestion. Glancing around, she scanned the cats and kits scattered about the cavern for any Rattlesnake might know. Instinctively, her gaze fell upon Maplestone. Well, obviously he knows Maplestone. Any cat would know that, even without a power. So, she moved on through the crowd. She assumed very early on that Rattlesnake probably didn't know any of the other kits in the cavern, otherwise he would've adopted them already. So, she instead focused on the cats who were there to adopt the kits. Looking into their futures, she saw a few possibilities where they crossed paths with each other, even some where they got to know each other, but overall nothing special. But then, near the entrance of the caven, she saw a tom standing with another kit her age—Mottlekit, she realized—and then the futures came barreling at her in full force. Almost every one of them involved Rattlesnake. It seemed that this cat was very special to him. Maybe even his mate. And his name was Dream. "Is it him?" she asked Rattlesnake, pointing with her tail in the direction of the tom, although she already knew the answer. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mottlekit Mottlekit looked out at the landscape to try and spot where Dream had mentioned. He didn't see anything particularly standing out against the trees and meadows and rivers, so he assumed it was somewhere only Dream knew. But, before he could say anything else, Dream's next question trapped any reply in his throat. Just the one word was enough to make his fur stand on end and his eyes widen in horror. It made all of the memories of the first moons of his life come flooding back until he was drowning in their depths. Family. It was something he hoped he would never, ever have to think about again. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Darkkit Darkkit's pelt crawled with nerves. "But how would we catch that?" he asked Hailstorm. "It's much too deep to just scoop out." He hoped that there wasn't some trick he was missing that helped RiverClan cats like Hailstorm catch big fish, and that he wasn't being stupid by not knowing it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit Yewkit had begun to pad back to the cavern, but when she heard Goldspark ask her a question, she looked back. "Um... sure," she mewed sheepishly. She hadn't really ever played hide-and-seek with anyone before, but she'd heard of it, and she had an idea of how to play it. Maybe it would be fun.

All it takes is finding something small enough for it to eat and bouncing it on the surface of the lake. That's usually enough to draw their attention."

Rattlesnake grinned, amusement tinting his eyes. "Oh, you are good at this." He a;most chuckled. "Though it probably wasn't too hard. I was just trying to find some way to introduce him in...how to put it...ah, possibly bluntly. I wasn't sure how to do it in a way that would be awkward or cause me to be nervous." He stated his feelings with hardly a pause. He blinked at Mistkit and said, "That's Dream. Though that's probably something you gleamed, along with the fact that we are mates." He dipped his head, thinking. "He is also my 'deputy' as the clans put it. I would introduce you to him, but he looks busy." - - - - - - - - - - Dream froze for a second at the kit's reaction, but hurriedly came to stand in front of the tom. His head nearly ended up touching Mottlekit's as he leaned down and looked at his eyes. To the best of is one eyed ability. "I'm sorry I asked," he said in a slow, calm voice. He moved his tail until it rested against Mottlekit's flank. "I get it. It's not something you want to remember."

"Okay.You can hide first and I will start looking for you when I come to 50, if that's okay," said Goldspark. She was really happy to play hide-and-seek with someone again. She used to play with her brothers all the time when they were apprentices. Shaking her head, she started to count: "1,2,3,4..."

Unable to hide her tears, they began to spill. "No, it's not you." She sniffled. "I- I had a brother named Snowpaw. He was the best of the apprentices: Smart, funny, protective..." She gulped and continued. "One day, he went on a patrol. They discovered a badger's nest... He didn't make it back..."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nettlekit Nettlekit nodded. "Sure," he replied, getting up from where he was crouched by the small stream. He hopped over it to the side where the she-cats were, and looked up at the new cat. "I'm Nettlekit. What's your name?" (Hey there, @bumbleberry! Nice to see you. :3 As lorekeeper said, there will hopefully be more openings soon, since I've been working to remodel this thread and fix the problems with inactivity. I've been pretty busy, though, but I'll get to it as soon as I can. And I'll tag you when I'm done. c: ) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Darkkit Darkkit thought it made a bit of sense, but he still didn't know how they would be able to get all the way out into the middle of the lake to catch the fish. It wasn't like it was just a little puddle. It was... pretty big. But, he was willing to wait and see what Hailstorm was going to do to get the fish. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mistkit Mistkit dipped her head in understanding. "Yes, I saw who he was when I looked into his future." Letting her gaze flicker back to Dream and Mottlekit, she noticed that Rattlesnake's mate did seem quite busy. He was very focused on the kit, and she understood why Rattlesnake didn't want to bother him. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mottlekit Mottlekit shook himself. He wanted to get the memories out of his head, out, out forever. He didn't want to think about his mother or his father or anything about them. He didn't want to think about all the time of his life that he spent alone. He just wanted to focus on the present. It wasn't until he had managed to stop thinking about them that he noticed Dream's tail on his flank. He felt tense beneath the touch. "N... No," he agreed, his gaze on his paws. "I don't want to remember them." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit "Um... Okay," Yewkit mewed, looking around for a place to hide. The only problem was... she didn't really know her numbers. She was only two, almost three moons old, after all. So, she didn't know if '50' was a long time, or not long at all. She'd never heard of it before. However, she dashed off into the forest as quick as she could, just in case. She soon spotted a particularly dense patch of brambles, and she figured she could hide in them. Crawling underneath the branches, she used her power to fill in the gaps in the leaves just for good measure, and she hoped Goldspark wouldn't be able to find her. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Snowkit Snowkit felt a prickle of sympathy for Miststrike as she told her brother's story, although, she didn't know why. She didn't know anything about the she-cat. And yet... she understood how she felt. She had lost cats too. Too many, in her opinion. Maybe it was something she had in common with Miststrike. "I'm... sorry about your brother," she mewed before she realized it. "He must've been a good cat."

Miststrike sat in her haunches and stared at the sky. "Ahh, Shivertail..." She mused. "Probably exploring right now- or looking for Featherfrost." Her gaze hardened. She saw Snowkit staring at her, and started to change the topic. "Sooo... what's up? How did you get here?"
(So, Miststrike likes Shivertail, but Shivertail thinks Featherfrost is cute, but Featherfrost pays no attention to him XD Ahh, love triangles!

"My group includes a lot of cats at this point," explained Rattlesnake. "Mostly because several of us our immortal." An ear flicked to see if that would surprise Mistkit, but he didn't stop to see a reaction. "Those who are immortal, however, can not have kits. So we adopt often." A tail flicked now. He seemed a bit twitchy. "We're nomadic as well. Would...if you were to be adopted, would that bother you?" - - - - - - - - - - "I understand," said Dream quietly. And it really sounded like he did understand, though he didn't explain. "Let's talk about something else. What is your favorite type of food? I like different types of birds, what about you?" It was the first thing that came into his head, but he said it anyway. Better to sound foolish than to let the kit continue to go down the path of thought that he'd been traveling.

"48,49,50!" Goldspark whiped around and scented the air for any sign of Yewkit. She scented her quite quickly, though she couldn't realy pinpoint her location. Then she noticed a very thick clump of brambles, that seemed too thick to be normal.Heh, found you. she thought and shook the bramble a bit, to let Yewkit know she has been found.

He hopped over it to the side where the she-cats were, and looked up at the new cat. "I'm Nettlekit. What's your name?" "I am Fallenstar." The she cat answered. "I was once a leader of a small clan but it was destroyed. I now co lead an adoption center and clan not to far away." She told the tom kit as a way of explaining the star ending on her name. "How long have you been here Nettlekit?" She asked curiously.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Snowkit "I..." Snowkit began, but she didn't know how to continue. She didn't remember much about her young life, to be honest, but she knew it was never pleasant. "I got here like most everybody else did," she replied to the best of her ability. "Once our parents found out we had powers, they thought we were weird and scary, and they left us on our own." Her gaze saddened. "But Maplestone found us, so now we're okay." It was true; the same thing had happened to most of the kits at the Home. They were abandoned. But, there were a select few that had gotten there differently. For example, Snowkit knew that one of the older kits, Blazekit, actually had a mother who accepted his power before she died and left her kits to fend for themselves. That was a blessing Snowkit could only dream of.
(YES! HE IS! XD) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mistkit Mistkit thought for a moment. Surprisingly, the idea of moving around, never staying in one spot for very long, didn't bother her. It would be interesting, actually. She would never have time to get bored of the places around her. And the part about not having kits didn't sound bad either; she didn't think she would ever take a mate. She just never saw the point. There were plenty of other cats out there to be having kits, so why should she have to? She shook her head to show Rattlesnake that she didn't mind. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mottlekit Mottlekit was surprised that Dream had changed the subject so quickly, but he was grateful for the chance to stop thinking about his family. "Um..." he started, thinking about what Dream had asked. "I guess voles are alright." He'd never really thought about what his favorite fresh-kill was before. It just didn't seem very important to him. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Yewkit Yewkit squealed when she heard Goldspark shaking the brambles, and she realized that she had been found. Mouse-dung, she thought with a grin, squirming out from under the brambles, and she looked up to see Goldspark gazing down at her. "How did you find me?" she asked. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Nettlekit "A few moons," Nettlekit replied. "Not too long, but long enough." He hadn't been at the Home as long as some other kits, who'd been there for almost their whole lives; he'd only been there for about half of his time living. But it was long enough for him to learn that most cats didn't like kits like him, and that he was lucky to still be living at all.

Maplestone360"That must have been wonderful..." Miststrike mused. She looked up at the sun, which was nearing the horizon. "Oh, Mouse-dung!" She cursed, then turned to look at Snowkit. "I need to get back to RainClan. Eaglestar will want me to go on the dusk patrol. I'll be back tomorrow." She hesitated and then turned to face Snowkit. "That is... if you want me to come back?"

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Snowkit Snowkit looked to her paws. "I...I guess you can come back tomorrow. You seem alright." Snowkit was reluctant to let Miststrike take Larkdapple's place so quickly, but... she didn't seem so bad. Maybe Snowkit would get used to her, after a while. And maybe Miststrike could be there for her when Larkdapple wouldn't be.
[Congrats, your kit has leveled up to !]

Maplestone360Rattlesnake chuckled. He couldn't read Mistkit's mind, but he said, "Half of my cats never accepted the offer of invincibility. I never make anyone do so. That is...against my moral code." His eyes were twinkling with amusement. It seemed like he was a very cheerful cat. How could it be possible that he was the one featured in a prophecy that he'd destroy the four clans by the lake? Even he didn't believe it sometimes. -- Dream nodded. He'd just needed some way to distract the kit and it worked well enough. "And do you think you'd be good at hunting?" he questioned. "I...have an interesting style of hunting and fighting because I only have the one eye." He tilted his head so it was a little easier to see his eye. It wasn't graphic. It simply looked like he was forever winking. "Foxes aren't healthy to live around. Just as a life tip."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Snowkit Snowkit watched as Miststrike padded out of the cavern and disappeared behind the wall of stone. After watching where the she-cat had left for a few moments more, Snowkit sighed and turned to pad back to her nest. Looks like I'm not alone anymore, she thought, curling into her the moss and drifting into sleep. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mistkit Mistkit was glad that Rattlesnake didn't force any of his cats to become immortal and invincible, but... would he always? Mistkit knew it was silly to be having second thoughts, now that she had already begun to get to know Rattlesnake, but his futures... they- they just weren't... perfectly clear. Sure, most of them seemed harmless and pure, but some weren't. With the kind of power Rattlesnake had, it would be so easy to get carried away. To think he could do anything he wanted to anyone he wanted. And that was something truly unsettling, if you really thought about it. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mottlekit Mottlekit blinked in surprise as he glimpsed where Dream had apparently lost an eye. He'd never looked closely at it before. He'd been too busy trying to avoid eye contact with his possible adopter. But now, as he looked at Dream, he was suddenly curious as to how the tom had been scarred. "What happened to it?" he asked hesitantly, his own amber eyes round with confusion.

(Hey guys, guess what? I finally got around to refurbishing this roleplay! cx Sorry it took so long. I hope it looks nice! And, if anything is hard to understand, just let me know and I can try to fix it for you. Thanks! I'm going to tag all of the members of this roleplay just to let them know: SilverHailstormmintedstar/furrussetfernSkyfire/FirewindOwlmoongoldsparkSummerMiNaMisorryivythornMissMistyxXRagingTorrentXxlorekeeperThe members below are those that are semi-active and inactive right now, which I'm tagging again to ask them to come back. The semi-active members still have some more time to come back without being deleted, but the inactive ones will be deleted if they don't come back in one to two weeks. Semi-active: OwlmoonSummerxXRagingTorrentXxInactive: russetfernSkyfire/FirewindMiNaMisorryivythornEverybody else, don't worry, because you've posted recently and you're not in danger of being deleted. :3 Thanks for being here! I'm also going to tag members who I've noticed have shown interest in this roleplay, but haven't been able to join it because there were no available kits. You guys are welcome to join this roleplay now, if you want, because, as you can see, there are many members who aren't active and may have to give up their kits. You can claim these kits once they're open. StormheartBillystormorchidblossom@bumbleberry ♡ Bun ♡leopardfireThank you! I hope you like the refurbishment, and have a happy new year! )
