WINDPAW
Windpaw couldn't believe what he was doing. Going out of his territory into...SnakeClan to meet some cat? What was his world coming to! His plans would all be ruined if Silentstar found out about this. Then what would he be? Just a low-life warrior like everyone else! But still, his paws carried him onward to IvyClan's shared border with SnakeClan. "Erm...hi Eveningpaw." He stammered, still not believing he was here. "How is SnakeClan?" Small talk was his only option in conversation.

Eveningpaw was astounded with herself, why in StarClan's name would she be meeting a cat outside of her clan, in IvyClan? She really was mousebrained. She realized that she must be very desperate, too desperate, her squabbles with Hazelpaw and Duskpaw were a long time ago, yet she held her grudge, it was their faults after all, and she had no intention of forgiving them.
She looked toward the IvyClan border, a silhouette of a cat stood perfectly still, only the ear twitching. She assumed it was Windpaw, if it wasn't, she was going to be in big trouble. She sighed, the only reason she was meeting this haughty tom, she convinced herself, was because she had wanted to keep an eye on him. She also admitted reluctantly, that she had wanted a friend.
"Erm...hi Eveningpaw." He stammered, the blood raising to his ears.
So IvyClan cats can be embarrassed, she noted, "Hello, Windpaw," she meowed quietly.

WINDPAW
Windpaw suppressed a smile. Eveningpaw had only come to keep watch on him, and he was keeping watch on her. But Windpaw also needed a spy. SnakeClan was porbably the only Clan that could defeat poweful IvyClan, and so he needed to watch them closely. But this was too close for his liking. His ears regained their grey color. "I trust SnakeClan is okay." He calmly said.

"Oh no!" she meowed, "SnakeClan is doing just awful! All of our cats are sick, and our deputy has died, and our leader is on his last life!" she made her eyes open as wide as she could, and tears slipped out. She was good at that lately~crying, "My mother is dead, and my father is sick with greencough! It came on so suddenly, the medicine cats don't know what to do! Now Duskpaw is dead!" she started sobbing, "I don't know what to do anymore!" she looked up at Windpaw, "I just don't know what to do!" she whispered.
OOC: Lawl, Eveningpaw is such a lier

WINDPAW
Windpaw could hardly believe what he was hearing. This poor cat! Raccoonstar...on his last life? "Im...so sorry...." Windpaw truthfully stated, "But you still have one cat......me, I guess..." He couldn't believe a word either one of the two were saying! What was this world coming to, when these words slipped out of Windpaw, a cat who had a tyrant from long ago turn his wishes into ones for murder, Windpaw, a cat who was bloodthirsty and warhungry! If these traits were not him, than who was he?
OOC: LAWL overreaction to lies

Eveningpaw laughed, "Did you really belive that Mousebrain? Of course my clan is okay! I mean, I woudn't really tell you if it wasn't," she smiled apoligetic, she glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and froze. His glance was one to kill. She had relized that he actually had believed her! Her expression was one of guilt.
"Im...so sorry...." Windpaw meowed hesitantly, "But you still have one cat......me, I guess.. is that what he had said? And then she had just insulted him?! Her tail flew to cover her mouth, "I-I-I'm sorry..." she meowed, "I didn't mean it like that! I just wanted to-to see um....she trailed off, "Sorry.." she meowed lousily. She knew, or at least expected him, not to take it.
OOC: oohhhw! Crash and Burn Evening Crash and Burn!

WINDPAW
Windpaw snarled under his breath. "How dare....oh never mind." Windpaw quietly growled. He stopped only because he was pitiful and saw her guilt (he was disgusted that this was even an option, but he still considered it) or she did not deserve whatever he was going to throw at her. He found himself unwittingly choosing option A. "It's okay. I know it was just a stupid joke." WHAT AM I EVEN SAYING?! A STUPID JOKE?! THAT WAS AN INSULT! His mind screamed at him, but something was stopping the intense rage from appearinjg on his face. Who am I? Windpaw suddenly asked himself. If I am not bloodthirsty and warhungry as I thiught I was, then who am I? Because Windpaw isn't the answer.

Eveningpaw watched as Windpaw opened his mouth to say something, and then closed it again immediately. He did this several times before she started to get impatient. She could receive a tell-off, but this?
Finally she just meowed, "Oh for StarClan's sake Windpaw, spit it out! Do you forgive me or not?" she looked at him apprehensively.

WINDPAW
"Yes," Windpaw said, ignoring his screaming mind. "I forgive you." His brain was yowling protest. But something, now he knew it was his heart, was providing a barrier that separated mind from mouth. He said nothing and watched as she changed her expression. Different feelings raced around inside him; rage for being here at all, fear that he wasn't himself anymore, humiliation for falling for such a stupid trick, hurt for Eveningpaw yelling at him, and something else he could not describe. It gave him a warm, fuzzy feeling inside and also a fierce desire to be close to Eveningpaw. He ignopred this last one and kept his face blank with a touch of pity.

Eveningsong looked at him curiously, did he really believe her? She looked up at the night stars, shining ever so brightly in the starry-night sky. Silverpelt was beautiful, even more beautiful these days. She could see their starry ancestors gazing at them, with ferocity, pity, disappointment? She didn't know. It really just bound to her what a horrid thing she had done to break the warrior code, all for just one stupid cat who disliked her ever so strongly. She looked at Windpaw's face, lines of hardness grew there, lines that would ruin any cat's face. It was like all he knew was war, fighting, hunger........power.
But then....was that all he thought of now? He did come to see her, but maybe it was just to see what was going on inside of SnakeClan...but still, yet, that wasn't it, she could read his face, his mask a distant future, he truly and utterly wanted to be here now, and she thought, that maybe, deep down, he enjoyed it. Not for the hunger or the power, but for a friend, a friend he never had. She looked at his face again, his hard lines still shown, but underneath, she could detect weariness, loneliness, love.
All he really need was someone to be his friend, to show him around and get him out of his hard core shell.
Once more, she looked at his face, pity showed on it, like he knew what she thought, she immediately felt self-conscious, maybe I was wrong all along, maybe he just is Windpaw, the ambitious.
"Oh, yes," she whispered quietly, "Who needs love?"

WINDPAW
"What?" Windpaw asked curiously. He had heard her say something, but the words were just out of his reach. His mind had quieted, probably as a signal of defeat, and this caused his expression to soften. The hard lines that marked his attitude had disappeared into one of pity. Pity and....something else he couldn't describe. His mind gave one last attack before quieting seemingly forever; "Tigerstar shall have my tail for this!" He shook off the foreboding thought of Tigerstar and returned his gaze to Eveningpaw.

"Hmmmm?" Eveningpaw muttered, not ungraciously, "Oh, I just wondered if you joked around a lot in your clan," she raised her eyes to the stars, "I mean, is IvyClan all battle, strength, power? I guess that I just havn't figured it out now, i mean, .............let's just say, before all of this," she swept her tail between the two of them, "Before our uh..friendship...., I was always strictly loyal to my clan, because of what..because of what.." she continued on more silently, "Well, not only your clan, but all of the clans, my clan too," she turned away, tears dripping down her face, "Of what they made him do, and how he left....."
OOC: yeah, u'll find out who "He" is in meh next post, but I'm sure you already know who he is lawl.
Sorry for such a short post :/

WINDPAW
Windpaw saw her turn away, muttering to herself. "IvyClan cats aren't just strength and power. If we were, I don't think I could take it. Some cats like to believe they are, but they truly aren't. Every cat has a soul, just some refuse to believe it." Windpaw stated, slightly shocked at his rather wise statement. He saw her crying, and immediately went into a protective form around her. "What is wrong?" Windpaw asked sympathetically.

"Sunpaw...." she whispered.
"We're almost six moons old; we're almost ready to become apprentices! I can't wait to see the look on Cometsnow's face when we become the best warriors ever!" Eveningpaw exclaimed, her excitement was just too obvious.
Sunkit stopped, he looked around angrily at his sister, his fur starting to bristle. What was she, Stupid? But then he remembered this was his sister, and she would do anything for him to fit in -They both would. They even cast themselves as outcasts, trying to help him, trying to reason with him that he was not as different as he thought.
"We?" he asked dully, "I'll never become an apprentice! I'm as blind as bats in a cave!"
"Yeah bats are blind and all, but they have great sense of hearing and smell and can be very very vicious! I actually do hope that you end up like a bat, not looking like them obviously, but have their hearing and smelling.....they're kind of ugly!
Sunkit snorted.
"Well I think that Eveningkit is right!" Duskkit appeared out of nowhere, "You'll be the best blind warrior in the history of clan cats; just like a bat!"
"Thanks!" Sunkit meowed sarcastically, "I really wanted to look like a smelly ugly old bat...not that I would see myself though!"
"Fine!" Sunkit reported, "But I'm not going!"
"Okay that's fine with us, come on, Duskkit!" Eveningkit replied.
Duskkit glanced back at her brother, "But Eveningkit, we can't just leave him on his own!"
Sunkit stopped in his tracks, he started to bristle, "I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself! I can do it without either of your help! I need no ones help! Especially not yours!" he meowed stung.
"Fine!" Eveningkit meowed back, hurt by the fact that she had done so much to make him feel comfortable and fit into this clan, "See if I care anymore," she meowed under her breath.
She watched as he staked away, his tail held high, mighty and proud.
She could still see him in her mind's eye, and she knew, that it was her fault that he was gone, lost forever, for he had run away that very day, that very night....
She had taken his lose harder than any cat, even her sister. It was something that could never be forgiven or forgotten.
Even if it was her fault, she also knew that the clans had driven him to it, Heartfelt, from CloudClan, Webfoot from FrostClan, Darknight, and Thistlepaw from IvyClan, were just a few of his tormentors, 'You don't belong in any clan....'. It was a common taunt that cats had called on him, 'You blind elder,' and, 'Crippledkit,' were famous throughout most clans, her clan too. He, however, was long forgotten, the taunts saved for another poor blind cat, most likely, Windpaw hadn't heard of them, or hadn't realized that he was her sister. And even all those taunts, she had said the last word.
"Sunkit....." she cried.

WINDPAW
Windpaw stayed silent, but changed his expression to one of comfort and pity. Her saw her have a flashback, and watched it fade as quickly as it had come. He finally spoke, in a soft and calming voice, "I'm...sorry about Sunpaw. If my Clan or any Clan did something...then I am sorry. I can't really say anything else." He pitied her. She had had a tough life, or so it seemed. His life had been made extremely tough for him when Tigerstar and Hawkfrost showed up in his dreams at the small age of five moons. They had made life hell for him, and his ancestors, Brambleclaw and Lionblaze. Tigerstar and Hawkfrost had made life hell for them too. He shunned them from his thoughts and turned to Eveningpaw. She was still crying, so Windpaw did something he never thought he'd do. He placed his nose into Eveningpaw's fur, and nuzzled her. It was the only comfort he could provide since words clearly didn't work. "I'm so sorry." Windpaw repeated, and fell into silence.
