(on mobile again >:c ) Maple frowned slightly, not thinking heโd react in such a way. She didnโt think itโd hurt to ask, but maybe she shouldโve kept her mouth shut now that her pelt burned with embarrassment. โWell, I mean, why not?โ She glanced away, not able to meet his gaze, waiting for him to finish whatever he was going to say until she too caught on to the twolegs scent. Maple felt her stomach doing flips and she tensed, fear striking through her as her head turns towards the area.

Lightning was curled up in a ball now. The twolegs didn't come up to her, their scent was still strong but it was like they were staying in the other area for now so now she had to find a way out fast.But she didn't know how, so she curled up, her body was trembling with fear and hunger. I should have left when I had the chance! Why did I care about him! She thought to herself angrily. She glanced around the cage, seeing some long metal sticks that appeared to move when she touched the smooth metal on the bottom. Thats my way out but how? She wondered as she followed where the metal stick went to the front of the cage.

I'll definitely do that tomorrow. We're out of town and I forgot my laptop, lol.)

Against her own better judgement, Maple swallowed her fear and began to follow Flare. โIโll come too.โ She told him, quickening her pace so she was passing right beside him. Her heart beat heavily in her chest as they drew closer, the twolegsโ and Lightningโs scent heavily intermingling with one another.

(Sorry, ๐๐๐๐๐ข and Blueflame123 ! Our Internet was down yesterday!)
As Flare drew closer to the clearing, Lightningโs scent grew stronger and stronger; to his relief the Twolegs seemed to have headed in another direction for now. He finally burst into the glade, Maple at his heels, and skidded to a halt. Lightning was stuck inside the trap scrabbling to get out. Flare raced over and peered in through the web of hard shiny substance that criscrossed across the opening.
โAre you all right?โ he mewed worriedly, his heart pounding. The Twolegs would be here anytime now, and would take the she-cat with them.

Lightnings eyes widened as Flame and Maple walked through the bushes.She thought of a retort toward the tom when he asked if she was okay but seeing the concern in his gaze made her rethink it. No im not okay, I am stuck in a twoleg trap, who are coming to get me any time now, with no way out and cuts and scrapes all over from some of this hard stuff! Lighting thought to herself before she took a breath, calming down for a moment. She still shook her head at the tom. No, she wasn't alright. She wanted out before she got take to that twoleg nest with the other strange cats, and lots of dogs in cages! Feeling panic set on again, she tried to get out again.

Lightning stared back at him, wide-eyed, before managing to give a brief shake of her head and return to futilely scrabbling against the bottom of the cage. Of course any cat who hadnโt seen a trap before would be panicking if they were suddenly trapped in on.
โHold on,โ Flare meowed, scanning the trap carefully. On the side of the trapโs opening, a sort of knobbed stick made of the hard shiny substance he had seen often in Twolegplace was wedged into a sheath made of the same material. This must be the way to release the webbing that covered the trap! A distant shout distracted Flare; the Twolegs were coming! Returning his attention to the trap, he probed at the stick-like thing. His claw caught on the knob and moved upward slightly as he disentangled it. Could this be the way to release Lightning?
Flare hooked his claw under the knob and pushed upward; the stick slid up an inch before it refused to budge. Muttering under his breath, the tom tried again, his movements clumsy in his franticness as he could hear the heavy footsteps of the Twoleg approaching. With a final desperate wrench he heaved the stick upward, his claw bending unnaturally and causing him to gasp with pain. There was an audible click and the opening released. Flare nudged it pen with his nose and stood back to let Lighting out, spinning around at the surprised yowl that came from above him. The Twolegs had arrived.
โMove!โ he hissed at Lightning and Maple, his fur bushing out until he looked twice his size. Flare bared his fangs at the Twolegs, willing for the she-cats to make their escape so he could follow them.

Peach honestly loved watching him splash around like a little excited kit, and she let out a surprised little squeal when the droplets hit her. She giggles and finally takes a leap of faith, literally she leaps into the water and lands right next to Taboo, splashing him in return. The water felt weird on her fur but it wasn't something she couldn't get used to, turning to the tom with a big smile. "I guess it's not so bad..." The tom let out a little giggle of amusement, wading his way over to the ex-kittypet with a grin. He shook out his fur once more before raising his paw just above the surface, then brung it down at an angle as splashed Peach. Looking happy as ever, he swam away as if to say, catch me if you can!

Maple gasps when they come across Lightning stuck in her cage and the tabby wonders how the other managed to even get herself stuck, but now was not the time ask questions. Maple watched as Flare was quick in acting, figuring out the way to open up the cage. The she-cat watched him work, while also keeping an eye out for the twolegs, whose scent was getting stronger. She's afraid she might get sick.
With the cage now open, and the Twolegs finally back again, Maple felt her fur rise. She quickly glances to Flare as he orders them to leave, so she does so without question. After rushing Lightning out of the trap, she fled from the scene hoping that the Twolegs wouldn't think to follow after them. "Lightning, come on!"( Wildbriar and Blueflame123 sorry it took so long to reply and sorry it's kinda short and meh)

Peach let out a surprised squeal, purring loudly at the tom's playfulness. She caught on to his game and her eyes glinted at the challenge, trying to remember the last time she had this much fun. Without another moment passing, the she-cat was quick to chase after Taboo, though rather awkwardly weaving her way through the water, still not quite sure how to maneuver through it. "Hey, wait up!" Peach called out to the darker tom with a loud purr, trying to splash him back now when she finally got close enough.

Lightning didn't think twice before she began to run, she paused at the feet of the twolegs. "Flare come on!" She yowled at him as she turned to look back. 'He might be a mousebrain but he saved you so you owe him the same.' She thought to herself as she watched him. She glanced up and saw the twolegs reaching towards them, they were squealing with joy about something. 'They probably want to lock us up!' Lightning growled as she unsheathed her claws. She needed to give Flare some time to escape too. She didn't need him getting taken. 'But why do you care?' The thought flickered in her mind before she glanced back again in his direction, she was ready to run as soon as he did.

(๐๐๐๐๐ข No worries! Blueflame123 His name is Flare )
Flare hissed in frustration as Lightning, who had been about to follow Maple and therefore allow him to secure his escape, whirled around and joined him, claws flashing. Couldnโt these dumb cats understand? They were endangering his own life by trying to protect him!
โGet out! Iโll follow you!โ Flare spat at her. One of the Twolegs--a big, burly male--lumbered forward, paws outstretched, and lunged toward Flare. The tom slithered out of the Twolegโs grasp, shuddering as the huge pink paws brushed his fur. He slashed out with his paw and struck, scraping the Twolegโs paw, blood springing from beneath his claws. He chanced a glance at Lightning to see if she had finally heeded his instructions. What a mouse-brain I am! I should be running away! His conscience pricked him then: what, and leave these cats behind to be captured?

IM SORRY. I DONT KNOW IF IT KEEPS AUTOCORRECTING OR IF IM ACTUALLY DOING IT XD))
Lightning rolled her eyes and darted away from him when he started to run. She scratched one of their covered legs before yelping as one grabbed her scruff. She hissed and bit their skin getting them to let go. She landed on her feet and instantly climbed up a tree. She didn't even think before she got up high enough to gaze down at the others below. Her leg throbbed as she let out a small growl.

"Let's go!" Maple called out to Lightning when the darker molly suddenly turned around to confront the Twolegs with Flare, who had been waiting for them to run so he could also escape. She groaned and watched as the Twolegs swiped for the both of them, one of them even grabbing Lightning before she managed to free herself. This was chaos and she could feel her frustrations rising, though didn't want to make anything worse by jumping in herself so she just waited for the two.
Her eyes widen when Lightning instead runs up a tree, which might've been a good idea at the moment but she doesn't know if the Twolegs will be persistent and wait on her. She lets out a low growl. "Flare! Just get out of there!" She yowled, figuring that at least the other she-cat was safe from their reaches, and she wasn't about to go up the tree herself. If the two were going to wait on her in the tree then maybe they could figure out a plan from there, but Flare had to at least avoid being caught first for them to brainstorm.

The she-cat followed Flare out, her long legs easily keeping up with the tom as they raced to a tree. Maple doesn't hesitate as she leaps up, claws digging into the bark and she launches herself up, settling on the same branch as Flare. Her chest rises and falls quickly as she takes a moment to catch her breath. Once her breathing has settled, Maple looks over to the orange tom, sensing his frustrations and easily relating.
"There's no use in staying miffed about all of this, we just need to think of a way to get her out of there." Maple shook her head and more under her breath she added "How she got in this mess I have no idea."
Giving a sigh, Maple's eyes scan the trees ahead of them, wondering if they were all strong enough to support their weight. A lot of the trees were really close together while others were too far about for any cat to leap onto the thick, secure part of a branch that would hold their weight. She frowns, her tail lashing side-to-side as she continues to think. "You got any ideas?"

Maple stifled a snort, swallowing her laugh and keeping quiet. This wasn't something to laugh at. She gives a curt nod, looking off into the clearing that Lightning was still in. There's a moment of silence that settles between them before she sort of awkwardly clears her throat. "So have you thought about it? What I asked you earlier?"

Lighting let out a growl at the two of them as they chattered. "I can hear you, if you don't want to stick around then just leave!" She spat venomously at Flare. She looked and met his gaze, anger and hurt flared up in hers before she looked away. Although their voices were faint, she wished she didn't hear him. 'Just leave me here then. And you won't have to worry about it.' She thought to herself as she glanced down at the Twolegs who wandered in circles, babbling to each other.
Laying down on her branch, Lightning let out a small sigh. The chances of them sticking around were small, she knew they weren't much for patience. She felt a pant of hurt in her chest when the tom flashed in her mind. He came to rescue her and now he acted as if he didn't care, what was his problem.
Lightning perked her ears when the Twolegs began to shake their heads and wander away with the trap that she had been in previously. 'I knew they wouldn't stick around.' She thought to herself before getting back up. She didn't want to go down just yet.

Oh my goodness. Guys I'm sorry, lol fresh into college so I guess I'm not reading them fully? I thought they were in a nearby tree XD my replies might be short the next few days as I'm super busy. I apologize for my mess ups))
Lightning sighed as she started to climb back down the tree. 'Bunch of mousebrians.' She hissed at herself. This is what happens when she catches feelings with cats. Bad things happen to her, and the others! Maybe she should just leave. Get back with her journey.
She shook the thoughts from her mind when she leaped off of the tree and into the soft grass. Grinding her teeth at the pain in her body, she sat down and began to clean her ruffled fur for a moment. Noticing the others coming toward her.

(Please donโt worry about it, Blueflame123 ! Iโm sick and my head is a little fuzzy so please forgive me for my mistakes as well)
By the time Flare reached the clearing, Lightning was already on the ground and washing her ruffled fur; she was furious, judging by the string, fierce laps of her tongue. โAre you all right?โ he meowed. โSee, this is what happens when you donโt listen to me! Iโve dealt with Twolegs before! I had everything under control, and valued my pelt enough to get out once you escaped!โ He leaned forward as he spoke, his tone not angry but slightly desperate, in an effort to make her understand. Wait a minute-- he wanted the approval of these cats? Okay, being around these mollies was definitely softening him.

Maple gave a sigh as he left her question unanswered, wondering if heโd even heard her. She follows him nonetheless, gracefully making her way down the tree. Once they reach Lightning, she opens her mouth to ask if sheโs alright but Flare beat her to it. She watched as he confronted her, hearing the desperation in his tone. Maple frowned slightly, hesitantly placing the tip of her tail on his flank for brief moment. Sheโs not sure why she does it, maybe in an attempt to comfort him, or remind him to calm down. Through her experiences she knows that getting lectured after something slightly traumatizing happens doesnโt always feel the greatest. However, she did agree with the tom to an extent. โAs much as I hate to agree, Flare is kind of right. I hope youโre okay, but how did you even get stuck anyways? We all saw the traps, and you two seemed like youโve seen them before.โ Maple asked, more curious about how it happened more than anything.

Robinflight parted her jaws, the crisp air carrying an array of scents. Pausing, the smaller reddish-brown she-cat perked her ears, listening intently as the sound of voices drifted towards her. She hadn't seen another cat since she was forced to leave her home, but she didn't know how receptive they would be to a strange cat. Her life as a clan cat had prepared her well should the need arise for a fight, but she was not in the mood to start one. Dropping into a crouch and ensuring she was downwind of the others, she debated moving closer to listen in on the conversation or if she should continue wondering elsewhere.

Lighting looked up, furious at them. "Would you like me to bow down to you? You seem heartless- at least toward me." She growled at the tom, pausing for a moment before narrowing her gaze. "And im Sorry but in case you didn't know I have been on my own since I was six moons old, I am perfectly aware of how twolegs act. I might not be very old but as a matter of fact I have seen my own parents be killed, and my littermates and I taken by twolegs for only me to escape from their cages, my siblings weren't so lucky! So you might know about them but that makes two of us!" She spat at them, suddenly freezing. She had just told them her life. What did I do! Why would I tell them that now they will know my weak points! She felt herself panicking on the inside, she diverted her gaze from them and watched the forest trees.
Lightning let out a small shaky breath, she needed to leave. Why should they care about what happened, she assumed they were in the forest for some reason like hers. But she had no idea why she even spoke like that. Mousebrains, I obviously didn't walk into the trap on purpose. Thats what happens when you get distracted by your thoughts over another cat! She cursed herself.
Okay thanks Shadow ))

Robinflight gritted her teeth in annoyance with herself, her tail lashing angrily as she thought back to the events that brought her here. Ravenstar will pay for what he did, you'll get him eventually. Patience. Taking a deep breath and shaking out her fur, almost seeming to shake away the memories, the small warrior crept closer to the location of the chatter, easily slipping up a tree, her pawsteps soft and sure as she settled on a branch that was thickly obscured with leaves. Her green eyes narrowed as she surveyed the ragtag group before her, her head tilting slightly as she listened to their rather loud conversation.
