I love you
More than
Life itself
Young Bloodmist trotted happily through RisingClan territory, his tail waving happily. His paws barely even made a sound as they met the earth. The charming young tom's ears stood erect and alert, ready to hear even the slightest sound of a potential attack. Bright hues flicked from side to side, looking for another cat. Which other cat? Oh, no one in particular. Maybe there were a few guys he wanted to see about a mouse, but that was no big deal - he could find a mouse here. But maybe...just maybe there was a certain pretty blue-ish calico she-cat he was looking for. Just maybe. His dearest Smokejewel; they'd been best friends since before Bloodmist could even remember. Ah, the pretty femme...the young tom could confide in her without muffled giggling putting him off...'Patches' as he called her, for her tortoiseshell markings, was a nice girl...Smokejewel was what she'd called herself when they met. But of course, Bloodmist was exaggerating - they hadn't been best friends forever.
Here's the story.
Bloodmist had found an 'injured' rogue tom, with a bloody blue tabby pelt. One eye had been gauged out, but the tom was only acting. His eye had been clawed out before in a terrible war, and he'd only killed a rabbit and spread the blood on his fur. Interesting though...how could a rabbit have so much blood...? But of course, I'm getting off-subject, as we aren't talking about the anatomy or biology or whatever we'd like to call it, of rabbits. He'd gone to help the tom, but it was a trap - the tom instantly tried to murder Bloodmist, and guess who came to his rescue? Smokejewel. And now he scented her near this area, and wanted to meet Patches again.

I am a piece of glass. I see you
stand behind me, and see clearly
when I stand alone.
What you don't know *Ah, blue sky, bright day.
Bluegaze slinked along the borderline, in fine high spirits but on alert. This was, after all, verging on Rogue Country and the warrior had her Clan to think of.
Come to think of it, the clan had their warrior to think of as well...
But she was digressing.
She moved to stand, rising from the grass with her head cocked.
Catseye had caught a scent on the wind.
You're probably thinking, 'Wait a second, who's Catseye?' Well, as it happened, Catseye was Bluegaze. Catseye and Bluegaze were also Azureflower and...Smokejewel.
After all, who wanted to be confined to one name?
Azureflower crept forward, not particularly worried.
In a sudden flurry of blue-gray calico fur, she leapt from hiding, meowing, "Hello, kittycat; what'r you up to?" Her voice was amiable, as were her deep blue eyes. * Are the things I leave unsaid. [/center][/size]

What, a voice? And a familiar voice at that! Could it be? The she-cat who had saved dear Bloodmist's life? The pretty calico herself? It was! Smokejewel's scented wafted like freshly baked cookies to the young tomcat's open mouth, his scent glands purring at the beautiful aroma. His head turned at Patches's voice, green-copper hues glistening with delight. Bloodmist's gray and white whiskers flicked and twitched as though some one or thing was brushing against them. The tom's fluffy ears, after having relaxed for a few heartbeats, stood alert again. "Patches! Smokejewel!" he called cheerily, as another name sprang to mind. "Mistfeather!" Bloodmist just loved making nicknames for his close friends.
He trotted quickly over to the blue-ish calico she-cat, tail standing high in the air. He smothered her with questions - "How are you? Where have you been? Is anyone with you? I'd love to meet them; could I? I know I'd like them, we could be best friends and I'd make a lot of cute names for them! Please?" He sounded just like a silly young kitten, the catechisms flowing out of him like a river. He leaped over her like a horse jump, then back over the opposite way. And this was how he expressed his happiness every day.

Catseye laughed. "Hey, Bloodmist," she meowed amiably, her sharp tracker's eyes following his spastic movements with ease.
"Calm down! The doctor'll see you in a minute!"
She paused, sure the sentence would double him up. Few cats knew what a 'doctor' was around here; but then again, few cats had lived in Normal.
Ah, Normal, that twoleg town, that little sandy bit of land, bordering the desert, washed in yellow sunlight... Bluegaze could wax poetic on the subject of her old home, but she was preoccupied.
Besides, she wasn't too big on waxing.
"I'm RisingClan's resident tracker now, Bloodmist," she said, her blue eyes flashing in the sun. "Do you have a home, or are you still a wandering itinerant?" She would have raised an eyebrow if she had any; she enjoyed using advanced words simply because they were exotic and new.
Itinerant equals Nomad. But Azureflower couldn't just say that, could she?

She remembered him, yes! Well, she did save his life once...you usually remember who you save, unless you're one of those saving-the-world type of feline. He stopped hopping around when she mentioned a strange word...doctor. What in the cat world was a doctor? Perhaps something magical and mystical of the Twoleg world Mistfeather once lived in? But whatever. He'd just ask, right? "'Ey, Smokejewel, what's a doctor?" Bloodmist meowed openly and casually. The young tabby tom, growing bored, his muscles itching to be on their way, jumped on the spot - then considered her question. 'Itinerant'...he'd heard it before, just didn't remember where and what it meant. Itinerant, itinerant, itinerant...Ah! Something about moving from place to place? Travelling loner? Something like that, but he couldn't be sure.
"What's an 'itinerant'? If it's what I think it means, then I think I've found a home - no longer an 'itinerant'!" he paused for dramatic effect, a smile curving his lips. "This RisingClan you speak of. I want to join it...put in a good word for me with Kestrel?" He knew the leader's name, as did most cats of the valley. And Bane of BoneClan, Sunsetfire in StealthClan, Amberstar of TreeClan, Lilystar of MistClan, Featherstar of StoneClan, and Sabrestar of DuskClan. Or was it Bloodstar in DuskClan? Recently there'd been a change in ranks, but Bloodmist just shrugged the confusing of his mind off.

"Never mind," Bluegaze chortled in response to the 'doctor' question.
Tilting her head rather endearingly, the marbled she chuckled and added, "Yea, you got the meaning all right. If you'd like, I could take you to RisingClan. What skills could you affix to my new Clan, hm?" She purred, enjoying the usage of the unconventional words; why use one word when you could use many? Why use a boring word when you could use a colorful one?
Why one name over many? Smokejewel's names were her own.

"SKILLZ."
Bloodmist paused like the steriotypical 'dumb blonde'. Hmm...skillz? What skillz did the handsome tomcat have? "Skillz, skillz, skillz..." Ah! He could hunt! Bloodmist pounced on a swaying wheat stock, then spied a plump, stupid mouse and pounced on that, too. "Howzat for skillz?" he purred. He dropped the little rodent - or rather, big rodent, seeing as it was quite fat - at Patches's paws. The mouse's tail twitched...was it coming back from the dead to kill Bloodmist for killing him?! But it turned out it was just a bug crawling underneath. Bloodmist turned back to Smokejewel.
"Oh, and yes, I'd love it if you took me to RisingClan," he meowed.

Catseye nodded, pleased. "Life moves quickly in RisingClan," she warned. "We're at war with BoneClan."
Her eyes gleamed. "Those bloody devils!" she yelped suddenly, leaping into the air and punching out with one paw, unsheathed claws glinting in the sun. "We'll wipe 'em out!"
The sun illuminated each hair on her pelt, making the she-cat shine silver.
"Skillz." Azureflower said it simply for amusement. With a tilt of her head, the she-cat meowed, "Do you have family, Bloodmist? My brother Quintessence lives in this Meadow, but I don't know where. I haven't seen him in ages." She huffed.

The young tomcat just purred at the 'war' comment. "I can take care of myself, and I'll defend RisingClan with all of my heart," he meowed, sitting and putting his paw over his heart. Hmmm...Quintessance? "Quintessance - is he a calico like you?" he asked curiously. And at the family comment...
"Yes, I have family. Two older brothers who bullied me." His solemn eyes glinted as they faced Mistfeather. "But now I'm bigger than them and can sit on them. And anyway, they're dead; killed in a battle. I have a younger sister, she's about six moons old. In fact...she could come to RisingClan!" He purred, thinking of family in his new Clan.

Smokejewel nodded brightly. "Well, if you can track her down, then she can join."
But upon hearing Bloodmist's 'Quintessence' comment, she stiffened. "Yeah!" she burst out, stepping closer to Bloodmist. Now they were nearly nose-to-nose, and the she-cat's blue eyes were sparking excitedly.
"He's black and white, and kind of a tannish-pink; he has a splotch of that tan-pink on his nose, and his eyes are teal." She stopped, laughed, and added, "And one can't forget his rakish good looks!"
Bluegaze peered at her friend intently. "Why? Have you seen him?"

Bloodmist thought. Hmm...Quintessance was a very familiar name, and he'd seen a male tortoiseshell before. Yes...yes! Yes, he'd seen Quintessance...and Highway Man. He'd seen them at different times, but Highway Man had been searching for Quintessance. Perhaps they'd found each other? "Yea, I saw him...he was passing by me. Shortly after I saw Highway Man," the young tomcat meowed. "He was looking for Quint." As she thrust her face into his, Bloodmist started unnoticable. After the two milleseconds of shock passed, he smiled coolly, brown eyes twinkling.

Bluegaze leaped to her paws and pranced in a circle.
"I will find him!" she declared.
Then she stopped, and turned to look at Bloodmist. She could see him very well, since she was close enough to feel his breath on her fur.
She seemed to smile, her blue eyes sparking. "Why did you decide to come here?" she asked curiously.

Bloodmist purred, his tail flicking with amusement. His brown eyes flicked to the sky; it was a brilliant blue, with only a single puffy white cloud blemishing the endless cerulean. Smokejewel was such an enthusiastic femme; Bloodie was happy that she was happy. His tail flicked again, and he stood up and pranced in a circle with her. She stopped and he stopped, and her question echoed in his mind.
"Why?" He blinked. A smile crossed her face. "Why, haven't I told you?" Bloodmist sat and groomed a paw - which almost whacked Patches in the face as he brought it to his muzzle. "I would like to join RisingClan! And, as for why would I like to join RisingClan..." He blinked again. "I've come to join you, dearest Mistfeather."
