LemonleapLemonleap flicked his ears back, turning around. "Hello, Whitepaw!" He waded through the crowd, approaching the white molly. "D'ya like my new name?" said the tom. He stood tall, unusual for his shy self. He usually walked in a slouched demeanor, in order to accommodate the cats shorter then him.
But today he stood proudly, his eyes dazzling with a light he'd never held in them before.
"I didn't think this would be my name. I expected... Lemonwing, or Lemoncloud, or something... but it's way better then what I wanted!" He stood on his toes, almost floating away with happiness.

WHITEPAW — with Kiwipaw - Tealraven & Lemonleap - ☾—ivy｡˚⊹♪:¨ ·There had never been a problem for Whitepaw when it came to how lanky Lemon paw had been, but now that he was Lemon leap there was a change in his stature. He was holding himself to his full height, or maybe just in his few moments as a warrior he had sprung into the figure of a full grown cat. Whitepaw had never found it hard to meet his gaze, but now she was finding that she needed to stretch a bit if she wanted to look the tom in the face. This new development didn’t faze Whitepaw much as she soon threw a congratulatory smile up toward the new scout. ”Lemonleap’s a pretty cool name, it suits ya pretty good! Though, I gotta tell ya, I thought you’d get something like Lemonboa for the patrol and all,” she told him with a glance toward Kiwipaw, knowing he’d back her up on that considering they had just spoken about his new name not moments before all this.

Lemonleap
He nodded, a silent 'thank you'. "Well, I think you'll get Whiteboa, maybe. But, maybe it was an option? I do have a large scar from the boa," he meowed, stretching his left, front leg to show the two the long scar. It started at the tip of his shoulder and wrapped around his leg, conveniently ending just before it reached his toes. "Ah.. it was gruesome waiting for it to heal. Saltwhisker kept pestering me with his weird leaves... 'Oh, Lemonpaw, do you need a new bandage? Oh, Lemonpaw, don't get that infected!'. He's far too serious with his job, I think," he finished, flicking his ears.
"But... I kind of noticed he's been actin' a bit off.." he said. A knowing smile enveloped his muzzle. "And he's had an aaaaaawful fever around Algaewing-" he gesticulated with his tail, pointing at the mottled molly- "-so he's a bit dazed.."
He changed the subject quickly, gaze landing back on the white apprentice. "I think your name could be... Whitefang, maybe, or Whitesnake. Whitefur could happen, but it's really... kinda boring."

BRIGHTCLAW — with Troutwhisker - moonclaw400A purr of laughter escaped the large molly at her companion’s comment. ”Right, right!” Her whiskers twitched as she shook her head, full of mirth. ”I know you’re a hunter, but sometimes I forget hunters also fish. I mean, it’s called a hunter not a fisher. Makes sense that it’s easy to forget a hunter can fish,” Brightclaw m rrrowed, amusement still mixed in her words and even in her movements as she pushed herself up to her paws, now towering over Troutwhisker. After giving her pelt a good shake the ginger and white molly stepped closer to the edge of Calm Fall’s pool. Her tail flicked in thought. ”Are there even any fish in here?” She had never heard of a hunting - excuse her, a fishing - patrol setting out for Calm Falls, but maybe every fishing patrol that wanted to fish here skipped over asking Brightclaw to scout for them. Though it wasn’t like hunters and healers actually needed a scout to accompany them while at Calm Falls. It was the only place outside of camp where that rule wasn’t necessary. ”’Cause if not I guess we could go to the Ocean, but…” Her words trailed off as she looked out toward the moonlit jungle. The beach wasn’t too far away, but if they went all the way down there they would miss some of the Flower Night celebrations, but if they went down to the beach and caught a fish for Lemonleap he would probably be so happy. Brightclaw shuffled her paws. Lemonleap’s happiness should be more than her worry of missing some of Flower Night, so why did she feel so conflicted over it? [ I’ll wait on anymore white replies so that teal can get kiwi in on it ~ ]

BRIGHTCLAW — with Troutwhisker - moonclaw400Brightclaw barely noticed that Troutwhisker had stumbled into her on his way over. She felt the tom’s presence against her pelt and turned to look at him, smiling warmly at the sight of her newfound friend. ”A new scout deserves more than just some minnows,” she mewed with a thoughtful expression. It was then that a sigh escaped her. ”The Ocean would have better fish for Lemonleap. I don’t want to leave the celebrations, but… What do you think, Troutwhisker?” The molly asked, eyes wide and tail swishing impatiently as she waited for a response.

Reedshark with Redwave & Stormsurf calm falls "Lemonleap! Lemonleap!" Reedshark called from the edge of the crowd with his deep voice, keeping his distance from the others. He would've found it stifling if he'd been closer to the middle. So once cats had started gathering, the tall tom slipped away to the outskirts of the crowd. The brown-furred scout could feel his shoulders relaxing when the ceremony was over and his clanmates were going back to their smaller clumps to converse. Reedshark decided to migrate as well, becoming bored of his spot by the ferns and thought being closer to the water would be a more dynamic scene. Hearing his name caused him to pause and his tail shook in alert, ears rotating towards the voice. Seeing that it was Redwave who had called out to him, and was now beckoning him to join the two, made Reedshark grin. Seemed the hunter's assumption had been correct as interest shone in the tom's deep green eyes.
"Redwave, Stormsurf," Reedshark dipped his head as he greeted them, now sitting just before the other toms near the waterfall. "Nice to see the two of you getting along." His gaze fell at the red hibiscus flower at the paws of Redwave, those emerald eyes now darting between healer and hunter. "Though I must admit, I didn't realize you were so...close." Another cheeky grin made its way to Reedshark's maw. He sat up taller now, wrapping his thin tail around his large, capable paws. He was trying to keep himself composed, not wanting to give away just how eager he was to find out what Redwave had to say. It had to be good, considering that he couldn't recall a conversation with either tom that didn't involve asking the scout to join a patrol. Reedshark knew that he wasn't the best at small talk, or any kind of chummy conversation. The only motivation for him to attempt an ounce of charm was if he knew he could get something out of it.
"Lovely ceremony, wasn't it? And during a flower night of all nights. Lemonleap sure is lucky." Looking over his shoulder, Reedshark could spot the newly named scout chatting with Kiwipaw and Whitepaw. He wondered what they were yapping on about. Before he could get too distracted, he turned his attention back on Redwave and Stormsurf. "I have a feeling that's not why you called me over. So, out with it. What is it you wanted to discuss?" |

BRIGHTCLAW — with Troutwhisker - moonclaw400This was why it was always important to ask for second opinions. Brightclaw had learned that the hard way back when she herself had been an apprentice, thinking that she could make a decision on her own without any consequences. Turned out when the choice was between hunting down a very large, angry crab and a small, less hostile crab it was always better to pick the smaller, more docile crab. Brightclaw swore that her nose still hurt from the large crab’s pincers to this day. Happily the molly licked Troutwhisker’s ear with a purr. ”Smart thinking!” She praised as she stepped away from the edge of the water and headed toward the nearby jungle’s edge, looking over her shoulder to make sure the hunter was following behind her.

Batpaw // with Jacarandabloom & Pearlwave ( Tealraven , 𝚛𝚊𝚒𝚗𝚢) - Batpaw was visibly upset that these two boring cats didn't want to do something fun for once. He frowned hearing Jacarandabloom's dull tone. " Luckily I don't have a tail." the tom said under his breath quietly as he looked as his stub, a substitute for his tail. Noticing the scout's face he once again frowned, displaying his disappointment. " Why? Because it's fun, but I wouldn't expect you to understand that." Batpaw shot a glare at the molly before turning to Pearlwave. He remembered how eager she seemed earlier talking about hibiscus flowers and found it also slightly disappointing that she changed her mind so drastically. The small cat shrugged and sighed," Ripplepaw is only mooning after Tigerpaw, I'll be lucky if she pays me any attention." There was a hint of sadness in his voice from Batpaw feeling like he was being pushed out of the the two cat's conversation, but he didn't mind, adult cats would rather be with older cats rather than apprentices. Especially during Flower Night. " I guess I'll go find her," finally conceding and ready to leave, the fluffy cat got up," Have fun you two.". The cat let out a soft purr before leaving the older cats and off to find Ripplepaw or whatever cat was nearby to entertain himself for the night.

Yoko// with Cassia ( ☾—ivy｡˚⊹♪:¨ ·) - Yoko stayed quiet, only listening to Cassia's voice. Hearing her sound so relaxed made the cat feel peace at last. Following the calico, Yoko limped his way into the thicket the smaller cat disappeared into. At last, reaching the middle, the white cat fell to the ground next to Cassia, exhausted from the event that transpired the entire day. The tom closed his eyes, but his ear twitched hearing Cassia whisper. There was a small silence in the air before Yoko responded. " Where would we even find that and will it make my fur stink?" he groaned thinking about how his fur was going to be even more ruined. " I feel as if I'll pass out at any minute too, but I'll help you find that garlic we need." the white cat opened one eye to look at the dark she-cat. It was true that the loner was on the verge of simply fainting from his wounds, but his heart swelled for Cassia, who impressed him by managing to get the two out of the fight with the talented warrior earlier, so he felt the need to repay her back by helping.

BRIGHTCLAW — with Troutwhisker - moonclaw400”Yet another great idea! You have so many of those, don’t ya?” Brightclaw chirped happily, looking over her shoulder at Troutwhisker once again. Her tail flicked with excitement as she headed past the waterfall. She hadn’t thought to look up there, and she supposed a lot of other cats hadn’t either. From what she could see most groups had stayed closer to the pool and the main area of celebration. Brightclaw passed one or two other Clanmates on her way with Troutwhisker, pausing briefly to wave them a quick “hello” before continuing on her way. Within a few minutes Brightclaw had made it a little ways away from the rest of their Clanmates. She stopped near some bushes. ”Let’s try here.” The ginger and white scout leaned toward to sniff some of the nearby leaves. Her nose curled upward. ”Smells like a leaf,” she reported seriously. ”Do you know what the leaves are supposed to look like? ‘Cause I’m not sure myself if I’m being honest,” Brightclaw murmured, voice quiet in concentration as she went over to evaluate the next bush.

How Finrunner had ended up near the top of the waterfall, he wasn't sure. Last he remembered, he was walking away from Flickerdawn and Wavecrest to say hi to another clanmate. He blinked, and here he was, mottled gray and black body almost invisible in the shadows of the dense foliage. His paws felt as though he'd been running across rocks for days, sore and tender where they'd been scraped open.
When had he taken up pacing?
There was a voice, not far off. Close enough that he could almost make out the words, but far enough that he couldn't quite pin the voice to a name. Finrunner padded slowly in the direction of the voice, his large body tense and ready for any sort of surprise.
"Who's there?" he called, ears flicking as he listened for a response. "I don't mean to scare you, I heard you talking. Do you need help?" Surely it wasn't the smartest thing to do, announcing your presence to someone you couldn't see, and may not know. Then again, Finrunner wasn't the brightest berry on the bush. Perhaps that was why he was never taken on patrols scouting for rogues - he was too big, too loud, too open in his existence, never taking a moment to hide.
Well, it wasn't like a massive tomcat like him could hide that well, anyways.
F L I C K E R D A W N
[ calm falls & with wavecrest ] Tealraven
Flickerdawn covered her laugh with a cough at his prod. Oh, so he wanted to play that game? She could play along quite well.
"Why yes, that's exactly what happened. It can be lonesome, sometimes, being so abundantly delightful. Not everyone can handle my brightness. Perhaps, if you spend some time around me, you could learn a thing or two about that. I imagine it's easier than trying to be invisible," her voice shook with her purr of amusement, light and airy. This was fun - refreshing, even. Someone who didn't act as though she needed to be a constant source of light and laughter. Someone who wasn't afraid to poke and prod at the sleeping crocodile.
"No, I don't have an apprentice. I wouldn't mind having one, I suppose, but for now I think I'm content with just my duties. Ocean knows the poor soul stuck with me would need to have as much energy as myself, if not more. Poor thing wouldn't make it if they couldn't keep up," she rolled her eyes at this, grinning. "What about you? Think you could handle the required social interaction of having an apprentice?" Flickerdawn teased, tail tip flicking lightly.

[ camp & with vanillabloom ] Feathertalon
Cannadrop purred at her response, dipping his head in acknowledgement. It was nice, talking to someone who understood. Her joke about stubbornness made him chuckle, and he flicked an ear in turn. He appreciated that she reciprocated his offer, and greatly so. He knew that, as much as he might try, there were things about life that he couldn't quite grasp - emotions, thoughts, feelings. He'd always wanted to be the father that a kit could turn to in times of need, but Cannadrop was as stoic and emotionally stunted as they come. Vanillabloom, she seemed like a cat who understood those things, who could translate for him when his words failed, or when he couldn't quite see.
"I'm not attending, so there's no need to worry. I stayed back to watch the camp since, as Nutmegblossom so delicately puts it, 'just the sight of me would scare any intruder off'. I suppose she meant that as a compliment," he meowed, rolling his eyes. At the mention of the kits, Cannadrop's eyes darted around almost subconsciously, as though he was making sure they were safely where they should be. Ah, those paternal instincts. Even kits that weren't his weren't safe from that fatherly watch.
"Where are the kits? Perhaps we could entertain them with a game of some sort. I imagine they must get bored out of their minds with so many cats gone. Less cats to annoy with tail-chasing and requests for stories." Cannadrop accented his joke with a purr, winking as though they were in on some secret.

Brightclaw »
Another bush, another disappointment. Brightclaw stepped away from the last bush she sniffed, eyes narrowing in thought. ”If I were a hibiscus flower where would I be…?” If she were any sort of flower she’d for sure want to be near the waterfall. Not only was the view nice, but the sound of the water crashing down into the pool below was a peaceful one. Though, as she was finding out now, being too close to the water meant getting droplets splashed on her without fail. Water wasn’t a problem for most HibiscusClan cats, but Brightclaw wasn’t a fan of getting soaked if she could help it.
The scout stepped away from the waterfall to shake her pelt out. That’s when she turned to Troutwhisker, smiling. ”How do you know all that? You’re like a healer or something! I could never remember all those plants and flowers that they use, but I know they’re really important. Coppershore told me about herbs before, but I don’t think I remembered much. There was something about aloe. Did you know it hides jelly inside?” Brightclaw’s shoulders tensed with a hearty laugh. ”I don’t even know why a plant needs jelly!”
Jumping back to what she had been doing before she stepped a little further into the underbrush, still close to the waterfall but she couldn’t feel any more water droplets sinking into her pelt. If she were a flower and had to stay in one spot for her entire life, she wouldn’t want to be stuck that close to the waterfall. She’d pick a spot a little further away, yet even as she searched through the undergrowth nothing like what Troutwhisker described popped out to her.
Vanillabloom »
Vanillabloom knew that there were a pawful of cats that had decided to stay in camp. Typically this wasn’t the case with a Flower Night celebration, but with a young litter of kits in the nursery and injured warriors in the healers’ den, some cats had to sit back in camp and keep an eye on those who could fend for themselves and couldn’t make it to Calm Falls. She was about to say something, to thank him for staying back on his accord, but her words were cut short, not even falling off her tongue when the hunter went on to say that staying hadn’t exactly been the choice he wanted to make.
The molly cocked her head, eyeing Cannadrop intensely with her blue and green gaze. It was true that the silver tom didn’t have the most welcoming look on his face, and he didn’t exactly have an open body language, but Vanillabloom wouldn’t necessarily say he was incredibly intimidating. In fact, she would even be as bold as to say Cannadrop was quite the handsome tom what with his sleek silver tabby pelt and those bold, deep orange eyes.
Vanillabloom shook her head, turning her gaze away from Cannadrop as she flushed underneath her fur. This wasn’t the time to moon over another cat. Deep down she was still hurting over what Coconutfall had done to her, and she was sure there was still pain hidden deep inside Cannadrop over what his ex-mate Nightdapple had done to him. While only Cannadrop truly knew the gory details of it all, Vanillabloom, along with the rest of the Clan, knew that Nightdapple had left Cannadrop, and the Clan as a whole, for a rogue. A few days later she had been found dead alongside the tom she had run away with. Vanillabloom could only imagine how hurt the tom must still be. His betrayal was rather recent as well, and while their scenarios were different, they were perhaps the only cats in the Clan who understood one another so well if they actually sat down and talked about it.
”Well I don’t think you’re so scary that I’d run away from you. You should have went if you wanted,” she told the tom genuinely and left it at that.
The mention of the kits quickly changed where Vanillabloom’s train of thought had been heading. A smile replaced the thoughtful look on her visage. ”Before I came out they were curled up in their nest, but who knows how long that’ll last. A kit’s mood changes quicker than the weather,” she mewed with a laugh tinging her words. The white queen gestured toward the nursery. ”Want to check on them with me? We may be stuck in camp tonight but that doesn’t mean we have to be alone.” Vanillabloom had noticed the way Cannadrop’s expression changed ever so slightly when he brought up Skinkstripe’s litter. Parental instincts was something else the two seemed to share. For all the cats that thought of Cannadrop as this stoic, scary cat had never seen him around kits. Maybe he wasn’t the most sociable or the most open cat there was, but Vanillabloom knew how soft his heart was when it came to kits. If more cats saw him like that then perhaps less would be afraid of him.

Troutwhisker snorted"Cause I found one, it looked different than the other flowers around it"He said as he searched. He pouted a bit at finding another deadend"Did you find any over there?"He called.
Vinepool had joined the group to the Flower Night, sitting by himself by the water. He wasn't exactly the fastest, so he didn't think he had much of a chance finding a hibiscus.

Brightclaw »
”Oh yeah, right, right,” the molly chirped, laughter mixed into her words as she spoke. ”I forgot about that.” It wasn’t unusual for Brightclaw to not have stored what somebody had told her in her mind, and it wasn’t because she didn’t want to or didn’t care about what others had to tell her, it was simply due to the fact that not much got stored in her brain to begin with. Brightclaw remembered her fighting moves and how to tell if a border needed to be remarked or not. She knew how to protect her Clanmates and how to win in a battle, but anything else for her to remember was a gamble. It was lucky she had even remembered Troutwhisker’s name to begin with.
At his question the molly shook her head with a sigh, shoulders drooping underneath her thin pelt. ”Nothing over here,” she replied. Brightclaw turned to head back toward Troutwhisker, eyes wide with curiosity. ”Nothing for you either?” Even she knew it was obvious he had no luck, Troutwhisker would have said something had he found any trace of a hibiscus flower. ”Should we try somewhere else? Maybe further in that way, just not too far.” The scout pointed with her tail up ahead of them. A small path that led deeper into the jungle lay directly in front of them. It headed up toward the rocky mountain side yet dense jungle remained until the ground no longer supported it. Maybe they’d have a bit more luck there - Brightclaw at least hoped so.

Coppershore could feel his ears warm when he was called handsome, and he got this goofy little grin on his face. How did he get so lucky? A beautiful mate, two wonderful daughters, and things felt like they were finally calming down in the clan. There wasn't much more he could ask for. "Who, me? Handsome?" The shorter tom asked with a low chuckle, looking quite bashful. He was more used to complimenting others, mainly Coralstep, that he didn't really know what to do when he was the one being complimented. All he could do was smile more and gaze lovingly at the molly beside him.
His eyes followed Coralstep as she stood, and he continued to admire her before rising to his own paws. Her comment made his head tilt curiously, before turning it to once again watch as Lemonleap waded through the crowd. "Oh, yeah? What makes you say that?" He asked as he passed the large, black-furred molly, making sure to press his side against hers as he did so. With that goofy grin showing up again, he looked over his shoulder to make sure that she was keeping up. Though, if anyone needed keeping up it was definitely Coppershore. He did have the shortest legs out of the bunch. Once he confirmed that Coralstep was following him, the orange tabby pushed through the foliage. He wasn't quite sure where the best place to look for a hibiscus would be, but they had to start somewhere. ————- ❀ ————-
Mantafur with Finrunner
calm falls
@ ʙᴜᴍʙʟᴇʙᴇᴇ » Mantafur was startled when he heard a voice call out. All four of his paws spread out and it made the ferns and leaves around him shake with the sudden movement. Could it be a rogue? Or, perhaps some other creature that had learned how to speak feline? No, no, he thought to himself. There's no way it's some monster, Mantafur shook his head, feeling a little silly for even thinking of such a ridiculous thing. Or is it? His eyes widened slightly as he continued his own conversation in his head. There was no reason to not rule out that it could be some sort of creature, mimicking a cat's speech just to trick him! Well, Mantafur couldn't be tricked that easily.
Help? He didn't need help. If this thing wanted to tussle, well, then he would tussle.
The big and burly tom stalked forward, closer to where to he had heard the voice's origins. His burning bright, hazel eyes squinted into the darkness surrounding the bushes, trying to at least make out the shape of the creature. It looked strikingly similar to a cat's silhouette, maybe he was being ridiculous after all. Mantafur's imagination often got out of hand if he didn't keep himself in check. Which, he never really did.
With his senses getting the better of him, he finally recognized the shadow to be Finrunner-shaped. With a big grin, Mantafur crouched down and wiggled his haunches before pushing off of strong paws and leaping right towards the younger scout. "Ah! Finrunner watch out!" He tackled the equally sizable tom, only managing to knock the both of them off-balance and sending them tumbling into the vegetation. Once their momentum finally slowed to a stop, Mantafur rolled onto his back and just laughed towards the starry sky.
"Sorry, thought I saw something scary behind you. Or, maybe it was just your face that startled me." The fluffy scout said with a snort, grunting as he turned to his side to look at his buddy. |

Brightclaw »
At his words Brightclaw puffed out her chest. ”What’d’ya mean? I’d never get hurt! I’m tough and strong,” she boasted with a smirk on her face. The scout was never one to brag about herself, but she had enough self confidence in herself that she knew her capabilities. She knew she was strong, one of the stronger scouts at that, and she realized that she wasn’t likely to get herself hurt. Accidents happened, Brightclaw knew that, but while she was daft and air-headed she was rather well observant when it came to her surroundings in a potentially dangerous area.
With laughter slipping off her tongue the molly took off after Troutwhisker, hopeful that they’d be able to find a hibiscus nearby.

Brightclaw »
While there was no need for Troutwhisker to worry over her, she appreciated the gesture nonetheless. If he worried then it meant he cared, and Brightclaw felt herself warming underneath her pelt at the thought of Troutwhisker caring about her. Before she could stop herself she padded to the tom and gave him a friendly lick over his ear. ”I know, but I can handle whatever the Ocean throws my way.” She pulled back, blinking at him gratefully. The scout cared about Troutwhisker as well, and despite not having the chance to be friendly with him until now, she already felt attached to him and didn’t want anything terrible to befall the hunter. Troutwhisker was a friend to Brightclaw, and she never wanted anything bad to happen to those she deemed as friends.
Brightclaw gave him one last gentle look before bouncing on her paws and bolting forward, not stopping until she arrived in front of a rather large bush with wide, flattened leaves. No flowers dotted the green with other colors, but Brightclaw found herself interested in the bush anyway, the aroma attracting her to the leaves.

Troutwhisker felt his fur warm at the lick, trying his best to not stare at the molly. As soon as the scent hit him, he hurried over"We're close! I can faintly smell some! Hopefully no one beat us to them!"

Brightclaw »
These leaves were interesting, and as Brightclaw stared them down with an intense gaze she got the impression that she knew what this plant was, deep down in her very soul. Had this been a plant that Coppershore had once told her about? Despite not taking on the role of healer she had often - and still did even now - pestered her father into telling her about what sort of herbs and flowers grew in the territory. Whether or not she retained the information was another thing, but she enjoyed listening to Coppershore talk about his passions. Seeing the excitement he got from healing warm Brightclaw’s heart; she loved her father more than she could put into words, and seeing him happy made her happy.
An excited cry from Troutwhisker had Brightclaw snapping back to reality. She turned quickly on her paws, eyes wide and fur rising along her spine at his sudden excitement. ”Wha- You can smell some?!” Gasped the scout. Without a second thought she raced toward the hunter and followed right behind him. ”Where?” Would the Ocean favor them tonight and grant them the opportunity to find a hibiscus flower? Brightclaw shook with nerves, anticipating drumming through her with every heartbeat, every breath she took. Was tonight the night that she finally got to see the elusive flower her Clan was named after?

He nodded, trying his best to follow the acent"its really faint. Either there's very very few flowers or someone may have taken them"he said, trying to keep an eye out for the flower

Hope brimmed deep inside Brightclaw, shuddering through her entire body. All thoughts were on the idea of finding a hibiscus flower. She continued to look around, scanning the dark forest that surrounded both her and Troutwhisker for any signs of a brightly colored splash in the shadows, but nothing grabbed her attention. All she could hope for was that Troutwhisker was on the right path to the flowers he could smell; the scout herself hadn't picked up the scent, not knowing what sort of scent she was even looking for to begin with. The aroma of flowers was all around them, mingled with the smell of typical foliage and greenery, but there was nothing that stood out to the ginger and white tabby. Surely her companion for the night could keep the trail, and hopefully there would still be flowers left for the two felines to enjoy.

He continued to walk, not noticing how far from the event he was getting. He moved around a bush quickly before looking up"theres one up there!"he called, motioning higher up on the plant.

It felt like hours had passed, yet at the same time it was like only a few minutes had gone by before Troutwhisker exclaimed that he had spotted an elusive hibiscus. Brightclaw stood tall, fur bristling in anticipation as she rushed to stand beside Troutwhisker. "Where?" She breathed curiously, eyes pointed directly where the hunter was facing, trembling, wanting to see a splash of color in the darkness desperately.
And there, in the darkness, after a breathless second of searching, she spotted it.
"Troutwhisker, there! It's right there!" Brightclaw exclaimed loudly before making a break for it through the undergrowth. Nestled against some trees and other foliage silently lay a hibiscus flower bush. For the most part it was barren, or the rest of its flowers hidden to the searching eye, but just in view was a beautiful yellow flower. It was higher up on the bush, perhaps even too tall for Brightclaw to get to it just on ground level, but that would be an assessment for later - once Troutwhisker had joined her beside the hibiscus bush.
