Redpaw padded through the tall grass, his fluffy ginger tail high in the air.

Brown…Oh Billy Brown!
Don’t let the stars get you down;
Don’t let the waves let you drown;
Brown…Oh Billy Brown!
Gonna pick you up like a paper cup;
Gonna shake the water out of every nook;
Oh Billy Brown...!

His sweet young voice carried through the air, and an Ocicat-patterened she-cat sang softly beside him. But suddenly she stopped.
The scent-markers had changed. Redpaw, Missy mewed. We're on new territory! Redpaw stopped, tipping his head to the side. So we are! he meowed, then smiled and padded on, singing even louder.

Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go.
He found an island off the coast of Mexico
Leaving his lover and his family behind.
Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind.

Missy hissed in surprise and leaped after Redpaw. Redpaw, quit it! she hissed.
Why? Redpaw stopped and whipped around. His pale green eyes shone; he was having fun, and he didn't want to stop.
No, he wasn't gonna stop just 'cause they reached new territory.
No one's gonna attack two little cats, he assured her. They couldn't be like MurderClan.
He suddenly turned back around and began to sing once more.

And on his journey and his travels on the way,
He met a girlie who was brave enough to say,
When they made love he shared the burden of his mind.
Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times.

Missy gazed forlornly as she stood and Redpaw kept going. They wouldn't attack two little cats; if they attacked, they'd only be attacking one.

Brown…Oh Billy Brown.
Don’t let the stars get you down.
Don’t let the waves let you drown.
Brown…Oh Billy Brown.
Gonna pick you up like a paper cup.
Gonna shake the water out of every nook.
Oh Billy Brown.
Brown…Oh Billy Brown.
Gonna pick you up like a paper cup.
Gonna shake the water out of every nook.
Oh Billy Brown.

Redpaw stopped. Why wasn't Missy following him? He looked over his shoulder at the Ocicat and frowned. Missy, whatcha doin'? he meowed.
Just... Missy shook her head. Nothing.
Redpaw shrugged and trotted on, his voice carrying on through the territory.

Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life.
Two kids, a dog, and a cautionary wife.
While it was all going according to plan
Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man...

The mottled colored leader yawned and stretched. She'd been sitting atop the same stones for a very long time and she needed to move before her legs feel asleep. Leaping down to the stony ground softly, she peered around for signs of intruders. The day had been so quiet that her watch duties had almost put her to sleep, but now she began to hear something. A high pitched melody floated along on the river's breeze, carrying a tune to her ears. Somewhere in the distance, a cat was singing.

Traipsing across the slick rocks to the MistClan scent markers, she spotted a young tom. "Hey, concerts have to be okay'd by the Clan leader!" she called to him jokingly.

Oooooh, a voice! Redpaw spun in a full circle, as if he was chasing his tail, to finally stop and see a pretty mottled she-cat. Aha! He knew they weren't going to attack. Hi there! he called back, giving a chuckle about her little joke.
He ran over to Lillystar, beckoning for Missy to follow with his tail. She followed a bit apprehensively. Redpaw went back and dragged her forward.

Stopitstopitstopitstopit! she hissed, kicking her legs angrily. You'll...thank me for this, Redpaw grunted through a mouthful of Missy's fur, then finally put her down.
He took a biiigg breath and let it out. I'm Redpaw! he sighed, smiling. He flicked his tail to Missy. This is Missy.
Missy's eyes widened in surprise. Why did he introduce her?
Oh, that's right...he didn't know.
And then Redpaw started to sing again.

See the world in green and blue.
See China right in front of you.
See the canyons, broken by clouds.
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out.

Lillystar cocked her head at the exuberant young tom. She didn't see any other cats around. At first she worried that this little tom was off his rocker, but then she thought of October, Wishclaw, Bluepaw...MistClan didn't seem to suffer from their more...off key members.

"Umm...I only see you..." Lillystar told him as gently as she could. Maybe he really didn't know she wasn't there...

[red]

"Umm...I only see you..."

What? What, what was she talking about? He stopped singing. Oh. He turned around, and Missy was hiding behind him.
She was just pretending, for Redpaw. Quit that! he mewed happily.
Missy sighed and padded around Redpaw. Hello, she sighed, knowing that Lillystar wouldn't see her. I'mMissyandyoucan'tseemebutRedpawdoesn'tknowthat. Redpaw, of course, didn't understand what she said.

OOC: Is Lilly sposed to be able to HEAR her...? I know she can't SEE her...^^; Help...

Lillystar stood very still, trying to figure out if there was in fact a she-cat hiding behind this tom. When she didn't see anyone the second time, she felt quite dumbfounded. Shifting slightly from paw to paw, she weighed her options. Would it be better to tell the little tom that he was more or less...seeing things...or not?

"Umm...yes she seems nice..." she decided to lie. Hopefully this was the kind of lie that could be forggiven.

[Bristleclaw]

ooc - no, no one but redpaw can see or hear her ^^ she's not there to other people. they can just walk right through her. but then redpaw would be like, 'how could you!?!' i'll reply in a bit.
