This Is Mine

Rainstripe was shocked at the arrival of another stranger. "Of course not," she meowed. "I would never want to be so close to other cats my whole life," she replied, shivering at the thought of such a horrible thing. "And even if I don't want to join the Clan, those Clanners will make it anyway, and they'll hunt all the food so the rest of us will starve just because we don't want to join a Clan!" Her eyes were bright with anger, something rarely seen on the she-cat's face. The tabby's tail was swishing back and forth across the dusty ground and her fur was bristling. It was odd. As soon as she started talking about her views on the idea of a Clan, her fear of strangers all but disappeared. So she did something else she rarely did. She talked without the other cat asking a question first. "Why do you need to know this? Is it really any of your business?"

Beetlepaw looked over at the kit and blinked. "From where? I don't seem to recognize you..." she shrugged and glanced back over at Rainstripe.

"I agree completely; it is quite selfish of the Clanners to make a clan when, clearly, others don't want so. Food will become more scarce, especially when the clan is formed. Clans mean more kits than normal, yeah? More kits means more mouths to feed, no? So, I think that you are right entirely," she nodded. She seemed a bit shocked at the next question, though. Seemed. She was mocking it, of course. She should've expected as much.

"It is my business indeed," she finally said, the surprise cleared from her face, "seeing as I am inviting you to participate in something better. Better than the mini-clan that the Clanners have formed. It's called the 'Rebellion'. Something us cons have dedicated to keeping a clan from forming. It is a very special group and we are currently looking for more cats to join us." She explained smoothly, not forgetting any of the lines that she had developed in her head just before coming over here.

"Will you join us, Rainstripe?" She asked, having heard the name Rainstripe earlier while walking by. She knew that this was sudden, but if this cat really hated the idea of a clan as much as she said she did, then it was the right time to ask. The brown tabby was sure of that.

Rainstripe felt conflicted. On one paw, she had to do anything she could to help stop the Clanners from forming a real life Clan. On the other, there were probably other cats participating as well. Strangers. /I have to face my fears sometime/ she reasoned. /And besides, it's for a good cause. I'd rather have to deal with a bunch of new cats than have to deal with a Clan taking all the food./ "Of course," she replied, trying to sound confident. Her shaking voice betrayed her, though. Rainstripe was a little uncertain about this, but she felt it was the right thing to do. "Where do I...go?"

The tabby purred when she heard the cat's answer. Of course, she repeated in her mind. Great. How many cats did that make now? Orangestorm, Grimykit, Frailheart, Shadestream, herself, and now Rainstripe. Six cats in total. Just a few more and the Rebellion might be able to catch up to the mini-clan's size. That was great.

"Go?" She asked, the question bringing her back to reality. "You don't need to go anywhere. Although, you and I could go somewhere..." she trailed off, an idea coming to her. "Alright, follow me," she finally nodded.

Beetlepaw got up and began walking in another direction. She was still near the wall, but she decided that they could find another area, populated with more cats.

ooc
Hmm.
Course of action ...
I think Amberkit shall stay here and await Nightbreeze's reply.
If Nightbreeze does reply.
If not, then I might have Amberkit wander off to another board.

[Gosh]

ooc| Ooops. xD

Nightbreeze smiled sadly at the kit. "My family has been dead for a while." He looked away, remembering that fateful day. If only his brother hadn't been such a clumsyclaws. He sighed and turned back to Amberkit. "How long have you been alone?" he asked the kit softly.

[Darky [Megan]]

"... Not vewy long, I thinks. I miss them." Amberkit mewed in reply. He looked expectantly at Nightbreeze. " T'was the wats' fault."

[Gosh]

Nightbreeze nodded. "My family was ratted out too," he meowed. After a moment, he tilted his head and meowed, "How old are you?" Amberkit seemed quite young to Nightbreeze, but he wanted to make sure. "If you're wondering, I'm one light season and one dark season old, I think." He wasn't sure, but that sounded about right to him.

[Darky [Megan]]

"I isn't sure," Amberkit replied truthfully. He had no idea about how cats measured age, and never gave much thought to it anyways.

"Two seasons is alots!" Amberkit mewed happily, hoping that was a nice thing to say. "Whatshu do evewyday?"
