This will be the roleplay page for my roleplay, Sun and Moon
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud hovered in the air, waiting for the trainer to come. We must have Sparrow today. He thought. The other trainers wouldn’t be this late. Sure enough, after hovering until he felt like his wings were gonna fall off, Sparrow flew forward on stiff wings. How did that old coot ever become a messenger? Stormcloud wondered spitefully. Stormcloud glanced at the other messengers in training, wondering if they felt the same.
“Hey Stormcloud!” Cloudwatcher called and flew up next to him. She looked around. “I’m guessing our trainer today is Sparrow. No other trainer will be this late.”
(Stormcloud)
“Yup!” Stormcloud said, pointing at the shape of Sparrow with one of his front paws. “He’s taking so long to fly over here, I feel like my wings are gonna fall off! How did he become a messenger? Does he understand urgency?” Stormcloud wished he could fly down to one of those oh-so-welcoming clouds and rest his wings. “At this rate I won’t have any energy left for training.” He sighed.
“Stop complaining,” Cloudwatcher said, cherrily. “Besides Sparrow is getting old. When he becomes an elder, we’ll get trainers that will be here early.”
(Stormcloud)
“Maybe…” Stormcloud sighed dramatically. “But if they’re here early we’ll need to do more work…well…maybe that’s better because then we will be fully trained messengers sooner.”
“Shush it!” Cloudwatcher whisper yelled. “Sparrow’s finally here.”
(Stormcloud)
“You don’t have to be so rude about it!” Stormcloud lightly complained, flicking Cloudwatcher with his tail.
Cloudwatcher ignored him, but gave him a playful whack with her tail. As she floated, Sparrow cleared his throat and began to address the class.
(Stormcloud)
“Today we will be working on endurance.” Sparrow croaked. “Maybe that’s why he kept us waiting so long.” Stormcloud whispered to Cloudwatcher. “But let’s start with the usual warm up. Fly from that cloud to the other.” He pointed with his front claw to two different clouds, that looked like they were solidified with cloud powers.
Cloudwatcher raised her tail. “How many laps?” she asked when Sparrow nodded at her. “I’ll tell you when to stop.” Sparrow repiled. “After the warm-up, we’ll have a little competition.”
(Ok I have an idea for the competition thing. They get partners and have to fly to a certain area and pick up something Sparrow dropped there earlier. I was thinking maybe Stormcloud and Cloudwatcher partner up and go to the borders and meet the other characters.)
(Stormcloud)
“I’m ready!” Stormcloud roared, possibly being unnecessary loud, as he got himself a stern glance from Sparrow. “I’ll race ya!” Stormcloud whispered. Before Cloudwatcher could respond, Sparrow gave the signal to start flying and they were off. It felt like a miracle to be flying again, and his gaze flickered to another lion who was slightly changing the wind to go faster. He flew closer to that lion, hoping he wouldn’t get caught. Sparrow hated when they changed the wind to go faster.
(Ooh that’s a wonderful idea!)
(wait in your comment did stormcloud start the warmup or the competition thingie)
(He started the warm up)
“I know what you’re doing,” Cloudwatcher hissed, catching up with Stormcloud. “You shouldn’t be wasting all your energy on the warm-up. You’ll be too tired for the competition.”
(Stormcloud)
“Fineeeeee…” Stormcloud complained, leaving the wind stream and slowing down. “I just wanted to move around after having to hover for so long.” Soon, they had flown a couple laps, and Sparrow called. “That’s enough! Take a short rest then we’ll get to the competition!”
Coudwatcher slowed down and sat down on a nearby solid cloud. “As you rest, I’ll explain the rules of the competition.” Sparrow announced. “You will find a partner and I’ll send you and your partner to a specific area in our territory.” As Sparrow said that, Cloudwatcher brushed her wings against Stormcloud, sending the message Want to be partners? “I have placed an item there. You and your partner must deliver the item back to me. First team back will have free time after noon meal. The others must continue training. Any questions?”
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud turned to Cloudwatcher and nodded, answering the unsaid question between them. “When do we make groups? When do we leave?” Stormcloud asked.
“You can find partners now if there is no other questions,” Sparrow repiled. Immediately, the other lions began moving around, finding partners. “You two can go to the most southern part of the territory,” Sparrow said, pointing to another group.”Petal, you and your partners can go to the forest on the ground,” Sparrow assigned each group with a different spot and finally assigned Cloudwatcher and Stormcloud’s destination. “You two can go to the border.” Sparrow said. “Don’t get in any trouble.” He looked around. “That’s all the groups. You may start.”
(Stormcloud)
“Lets go!” Stormcloud roared as he flew off the cloud and flew straight in the direction of the border. “I wonder where our flag is.” Stormcloud thought aloud.
“Near the border” Cloudwatcher said, not really answering Stormcloud’s questions. “Don’t waste all your energy flying as fast as you can,” Cloudwatcher said. “Or else you’ll get tired before you get to the border.”
(Stormcloud)
“But if we don’t use our energy, we might not get there quickly.” Stormcloud pointed out. “Once we get to the border it’ll be a lot of slow searching, which we won’t need to use that much energy for.” Even though he said that, he might have slowed down just a little. After flying for what seemed like forever, Stormcloud caught sight of the border. “We’re almost there!” Stormcloud called to Cloudwatcher.
Cloudwatcher jumped a little, snapped out of her thoughts. “I can see that,” Cloudwatcher repiled. She slowed down and landed on the ground. “I wonder if we’ll see any moon or sun lions here.” she said peering at the other side. Maybe there will be sun lions invading us so we can become their allies she thought, jokingly.
(Stormcloud)
“I don’t know…” He replied. “But what we need to focus on is finding that flag!” He looked around, but didn’t see the flag anywhere. “It can’t be here…” He mumbled.
(ok I think this is where stormcloud and cloudwatcher should meet the other lions, quake, luna, prowler, flamer and celestial)
“Hey look, lions,” Cloudwatcher whispered, not focused on finding the flag. “Both sun and moon pride. Wonder if they’ll fight.”
(Stormcloud)
“Lets see!” Stormcloud whispered excitedly, forgetting about the flag. “Let’s get closer!”
“Cloudwatcher watching some lions,” Cloudwatcher whispered, chucking to herself. “Looks like the sun lion’s leaving. No fight. Maybe we should talk to them….”
(Stormcloud)
“Yeah!” Stormcloud said, flying down to the other lions. “Hello!” He said, trying to sound as passive as he could.
“I said maybe we should,” Cloudwatcher hissed, flying after him. She looked at the group of lions. They wouldn’t hurt two young lions right? “Um..hi?”
Claw walked through the prarie, searching for a habitable place to spend the night.
(Crystal)
Crystal peeked her head out of her den, wondering who the lion she saw walking by. He didn’t look that remarkable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, she saw a mark that almost seemed to glow. “Hello!” She called to the other lion, though at the last minute she wondered if that was a bad idea.
“Who are you?” He asked calmly.
(Crystal)
The other Lion didn’t seem like a threat, so Crystal decided he probably wasn’t. “My name is Crystal!” She told him. “What’s yours?”
“I’m… Sand.” (hes gonna hide his identity for now)
(Crystal)
“Oh hello Sand!” Crystal meowed. “What are you doing?” She asked.
“Trying to find a place to sleep,” he grumbled to himself. “Exploring. I’m a Moon Lion, born in the moon pride. I… left. Looking for a place to spend my time.”
“Who are you talking to Crystal?” Golden Skies asked, calmly walking towards Claw/Sand.
(Crystal)
“Oh hi Gold!” Crystal said, rushing to her friend’s side. “I’m talking to this lion, his name is Sand! He said he was born in one of the prides!” Crystal looked eagerly at Sand. “Tell me everything about the prides!” She begged.
“O-oh um… The prides are groups of lions and they all have certain roles, like a healer or a leader or a messenger. They work together, and also some have powers…”
could I come with you? I know i’m not prideless but i’m trying to find my half-brothers or sisters?
(Are you saying this inside the Roleplay or outside, sorry I can’t really tell 😛)
(Crystal)
“That’s so cool!” Crystal gasped. “What’s it like in the Moon Pride? Is it different from the Sun Pride? The only Pride lion I’ve ever met was in the Sun Pride. He said it was super terrible and strict. Is that true?”
“Don’t overwhelm Sand with too much questions,” Golden Skies said, humor in his eyes. “But I’m curious too. How does the pride leader control so many lions?”
(Crystal)
“Ooh-I think I might know this one!” Crystal said eagerly. “Well, in the Sun Pride at least, all the lions are best friends and they are super loyal to each other, and the loyalty makes them listen to the leader!” Crystal looked over to Sand. “Is that right?”
“Uh….” *his mind is broken from all the questions*
(Crystal)
“Am I asking to many questions?” Crystal asked. “I’ll stop. I’ll stop if you want. Do you want me to stop?”
“One question at a time.”
(Crystal)
“Ok!” Crystal said. “You should probably answer Gold’s question then.”
“So… the leaders usually use loyalty to prove their worth. They also unite the prides in peace.” Claws couldn’t believe that he was saying this.
“Do the other prides act the same? What jobs do the lions have?” Golden Skies, asked becoming like Crystal. “How does someone become leader?”
(Haze)
Haze paced around, having nothing to do. There were only a few lions in the area, and they were all keeping to themselves. Not that she would want to talk to them anyway. She wished a messenger would come with news of a battle, or that their leader would call them together for an attack. She just wanted to be fighting.
~Shadowedhunter~
Shadowedhunter padded haughtily up to Prowler. “Prowler. I do believe we are well overdue a visit to Sky Pride. We need to tell them to pick a side. Should I send Electra over?”
(Haze)
“Can I come with her?” Haze asked. “If she goes into Sky Lion territory, she could be ambushed by Sun Lions, or she might need backup if the Sky Lions don’t…cooperate.” Haze knew she wasn’t needed, and that probably Prowler wouldn’t say she could go, but she was desperate to do something.
Prowler
“Yes and no. We does not need you now, Haze, you can help later.”, Prowler said. Then he suddenly started running, leaving the other lions surprised.
Luna looked back at her home. Am I doing the right thing? Am I ever going to become the healer I was meant to be? It was to late now. She had to find her other family.
So Luna set of for an adventure
(Quake)
Quake prowled along the border between the Sun Pride, the Moon Pride and the Aridlands. She knew she was to close to the border to the Moon Pride’s territory, especially as she wasn’t a hunter, but her paws had taken her there anyway. Is that a Moon Lion? Quake wondered as she saw a white lion in the distance. She had a thin build, but her color was completely different from any Moon Lion she had seen before. The only color she had seen that on was Sky Lions, and it was obvious it wasn’t a Sky Lion. She wondered if it was a Prideless Lion, but again it didn’t work out, she would recognize the build of a Moon Lion anywhere. The other lion looked young, but still like it would be in training. She didn’t have the muscular build of a hunter or fighter, and she didn’t have the compact thin muscles of a messenger either. Is she a healer? Quake wondered. “Hey!” She called out to the other lion. “What are you doing?”
(Prowler)
Prowler suddenly hear something, something faint, after talking to Haze and Shadowhunter. Prowler ran toward the faint sound until he seen Quake, but not Luna. “What are you shouting for?”, Prowler said with a slight hostile tone in his voice
(Flamer)
Flamer comes too, but when he saw prowler, he got back. This is not the right time to get revenge, Flamer thought, with all the eyes. Luna and Quake were watching
Luna snapped her head around to see a grey and a black lion.
“I-Im…” Her mouth turned dry. She was not that good at talking to people.
(Quake)
Quake felt her fur bristle, and a growl started rumbling in her throat. “I was asking this lion why she was so close to the border!” She snapped. She wondered if she should make a run for it. There was no way she could beat the Moon Pride leader in a fight. “I never crossed your border!” Even as she said it, Quake knew that meant nothing.
“Is something wrong?” Celestial said, padding towards the group. There were hostile looks on the lions and it looks like the sun lion would pounce anytime. “Um….let’s calm down,” Celestial suggested. “The sun lion didn’t cross the border, there’s no need for a fight.”
(Quake)
As Quake looked around, she realized how badly outnumbered she was. Three lions against only her, there was no way she could win. Swallowing her pride, Quake put her head down and said, “I don’t want to cause any more trouble, I’ll leave right now.” She willed herself not to start trembling, and she hoped that they would let her go. Worst case scenario-they kill me. She ran through in her head. Best case scenario-they let me go. Other bad scenario-they take me prisoner. “I’ll get out of your fur right now…” Quake said, turning backwards.
Prowler spotted Flamer, and ran back.Flamer suddenly almost burst, because he is about to kill Prowler. After Prowler got back, he started to question Electra
(Quake)
After Prowler left, Quake knew she might stand a chance. Might. She was still outnumbered, but one of the Moon Lions didn’t look very dangerous, and the other one was the one who said they shouldn’t attack. She saw Flamer nearby, but Flamer looked like all he wanted to do was kill Prowler. Suddenly, she heard what sounded like the flapping of wings. Sky Lions. Quake thought.
Celestial looked at the ground, uncomfortable. “Um….goodbye?” She was about to turn around and leave when she heard a voice. She whipped around and saw a gray sky lion. He was young, probably still a cub or a sub-adult. Oh god, she thought, three different prides all here. Then another sky lion flew down, this one white around the same age. “What are you doing here so close to the border?” Celestial asked, a little confused.
(Stormcloud)
“We were just looking for something.” Stormcloud said with a flick of his wing. “Why do you have to be so close to our territories?” The brown Sun Lion asked, with only a small amount of hostility in her voice. “Like I said.” Stormcloud answered calmly. “We were looking for something.”
Celestial nodded. “What are you looking for?” she asked, trying to sound friendly. “A flag for a messenger training session,” the white lioness said, after a moment of silence.
(Stormcloud)
“Soooo…” Stormcloud said, trying to break up the awkward silence. “I’m going back.” The Sun Lion said. “Go find your flag and leave my territory.”
“Um…bye,” Cloudwatcher said. ” Oh and I’m Cloudwatcher by the way. Nice to meet you?” She looked at Stormcloud, what do we do? Say something!! she mouthed.
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud got Cloudwatcher’s message to say something, and felt a bit stressed. “So, what’s it like in the Moon Pride?” Stormcloud asked, not sure what to say, but content with his question.
“Its normal I guess,” Celestial said, shrugging trying not to give away any secrets. “Quiet, strict. What’s it like in Sky pride? We told that sky lions are cowards that enjoy frolicking like flying rabbits.” Celestial paused realizing how rude she sounded. “Not like its true,” she added.
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud smiled. “If we were cowards would we just fly up to you?” Stormcloud glanced over to Cloudwatcher. “And we only do a little frolicking like flying rabbits.”
Cloudwatcher shrugged, “I like frolicking. Its calming and good for daydreaming and thinking. But I prefer ‘thinking and walking’ over ‘frolicking'”. Cloudwatcher looked at Stormcloud, We need to get back home.
Celestial snorted, “Is there a difference?” she said with more amusement than bitterness. “And I guess you guys aren’t cowards. We were probably just told that because sky pride won’t join the war.” Celestial was actually enjoying talking to the sky lions, but she knew she had to go back. “Don’t you guys need to find a flag or whatever? You guys probably lost already. Besides I need to get going.”
(Stormcloud)
“We’ll be on our way!” Stormcloud said, slightly disappointed that they couldn’t talk longer. “Bye!” As he said it, he pulled himself into the air. “Oh yeah, any chance you’ve seen a flag nearby?” He knew she probably hadn’t, but might as well try.
“Nope, sorry,” Celestial said, turning around.
“Goodbye!” Cloudwatcher called. She turned to Stormcloud, “She was nice. Its was cool talking to her, even though we’re probably in last place.”
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud shrugged. “Would you rather have a bit of time to rest, or would you rather go on an adventure?” He asked. “This was completely worth it.”
Cloudwatcher laughed, “Wonder what’s beyond the prides’ borders,” she wondered out loud. “Other different creatures. Maybe we will see one of them someday day.”
(Stormcloud)
“I heard, from one of the elders, that there were these skinny-even more skinny then Moon Lions-cats, and they could run as fast as lightning!” As Stormcloud said it he laughed to himself, as if there was even a chance something like that could be read.
(Cheetahs stay away from Pride territories)
“Oh and tiny lions that were just as small as cubs fully grown!” Cloudwatcher chuckled. Her chuckle was cut off by a sharp voice. “Stormcloud? Cloudwatcher?” She whipped around and saw Sparrow standing there with the whole class.
(Stormcloud)
“What took you so long?” Sparrow said in the insufferable voice he said things when he was angry. “And where is your flag?” Stormcloud paused for a moment. “We tried finding the flag.” He started, thinking up a lie. “And we found it-but while we were flying, I dropped it.” Sparrow would have no trouble believing that I did something stupid like that. He thought to himself. “It flew away in the wind and we spent way to long trying to find it again.” Sparrow didn’t look impressed with his magnificent lie. “What did you really get yourselves into?” He asked in that same insufferable voice.
“You see,” Cloudwatcher began. “We were defending our border. Some moon and sun lions were coming very close. We chased them off and told them to never come back.” Sparrow looked at them skeptically.
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud prayed that Sparrow would listen to Cloudwatcher’s story, and he felt a huge wave of relief as Sparrow nodded. “In the future, don’t chase them off yourself, you could get hurt. Get a fighter to chase them off right away.” “I’ll do that.” Stormcloud said, glancing at Cloudwatcher, giving her a look of relief.
“As a punishment, you two will be caring for the elders in your free time for this whole week,” Sparrow announced. “And no complaints. I was about to give you a whole moon of cleaning. Everybody fly back and get something to eat. Stormcloud, Cloudwatcher, hunt and eat quickly since you have a lot of cleaning to do.” Cloudwatcher nodded, “Hey it could be worse,” she whispered to Stormcloud.
(Stormcloud)
“It could have been better.” He growled. Suddenly he heard the faint sound of roaring. “Give me one sec ok?” He said to Cloudwatcher. Without waiting for a response he flew down to investigate the sound.
“Stormy!” Cloudwatcher whisper yelled. “We’re already in trouble, you’ll just get us into more trouble with your stupidity!” Cloudwatcher urgently looked around not sure what to do. Sparrow and the class was already leaving. I can’t just leave him alone she thought, he’s going to get himself in big trouble. She groaned and flew after him.
~Shadowedhunter & Electra~
Shadowedhunter signalled to the messenger, who padded slowly and deliberately up to her. “Want me to go to Sky Pride, tell them to pick a side?”
Shadowedhunter looked surprised for a millisecond, then nodded. “Yes.”
Electra sped off into the distance, not looking behind her. She suddenly felt something large at her feet, and tripped. “Aah!”
A dark-grey blue lioness was stretched out in front of her. “Watch it!”
Electra narrowed her eyes. “You’re-you’re the former Top Healer!”
The lioness began to wash her paws. “Maybe. Maybe not.” She shook her head sadly. “You must get on with your journey, young one. Before your time runs out, like mine has.”
Electra froze, confused, then ran to the Sky Pride camp. “Prowler! A message from Prowler!”
(Hurricane)
Hurricane flew down from the clouds that made up the Sky Pride camp, and he was surprised to see a Moon Lion roaring about having a message from Prowler. “What is it?” Hurricane growled. He knew what she was there for, of course. She wanted to tell the Sky Pride to join them in the war. But he would act like he didn’t know, just to bide more time.
~Electra~
“Prowler say you need to pick a side.” Electra rolled her eyes at the next bit. “Or we’ll attack you.” She sighed. “Prowler is an idiot. We’re already in a war, we don’t need more fighting.” She seemed serious again. “So, yeah. You can choose.”
(Hurricane)
“There’s a reason we’ve been able to stay out of this war.” Hurricane growled. “Without wings you wouldn’t even be able to come close to our camp, and Prowler knows that.” Hurricane flicked his tail. “I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. I will not drag the Sky Pride into this war.” Hurricane looked down and shook his head. “Enough of my lions have joined other prides to fight, and enough of them have died. I refuse to make a decision for my pride. Now leave my sight.” Hurricane flew into the air, not leaving the area but being far enough away so that the Moon Lion couldn’t attack him
(Prowler)
“Oh, when do I said we will attack Sky pride?”, Prowler asked after electra got back, “I just want to win this war that we cannot wriggle out of and have some peace. If we attack than we LOSE because the sky pride would attack.”
oops my post is undeleteable
I don’t think Prowler would know Electra said that.
~Electra~
Electra sighed. “Nice to meet you, my name’s Electra. And you better get used to me, because I’ll be round here a lot.” She turned around, and ran back to Moon Pride.
(Hurricane)
Hurricane looked at Electra as she ran back in the direction of the Moon Pride. His tail lashed, and he flew back to the clouds. “The Moon Pride won’t be able to attack us.” He mumbled to himself. “They won’t.”
Prowler suddenly ran back to Quake, Luna, and the other lions
~The Whispers~
After her encounter with the young Moon messenger, The Whispers stood up, and walked away. She limped around, then suddenly realised she’d crossed the Sun Pride border.
Luna went over to the grey lion. “Hi im Luna.What’s your name? ”
~The Whispers~
The Whispers snarled. “Leave me alone, scrap!” She turned around, limping back.
~Electra~
Electra ran back to Shadowedhunter and Prowler. “They said they will attack us soon!”
Shadowedhunter’s eyes widened. “No.”
“Yes! They’re going to attack, and the only way to win is to attack first!”
Shadowedhunter nodded. “I think so too. Prowler?”
(Haze)
“It’s the only way to prevent deaths is to attack first.” Haze agreed, hoping she would get to fight something. “It would be foolish not to attack now.”
“We will first defend, then we will attack, because if they attack they will be on unfamiliar territory, but after a day, WE WILL ATTACK!!!”, Prowler told them
~Shadowedhunter~
“We will be unprepared for their attack!” objected the lioness. “If we don’t attack now they will, and we won’t know when! If we attack though, it would mean less death and we would have the advantage.”
(Haze)
Haze looked over to Shadowhunter and nodded in approval.
(Haze)
“I’ll be ready.” Haze growled. Internally, she scolded Prowler for not attacking right away, and she wished that he would just say they would attack.
“Ok, we will attack, but with almost our whole force!”, Prowler said, getting a bit annoyed, “Even if sky pride does not join us, we can win.”
~Electra~
Electra half smiled. “Okay.” She dipped her head, and padded away.
~Shadowedhunter~
Shadowedhunter narrowed her eyes. “I will get the fighters ready.”
(Haze)
Finally. Haze thought. She could get her revenge. “I’m ready whenever we can go.” She said to Shadowedhunter. She’ll make a good Top Healer when I’m leader. She thought to herself.
~Shadowedhunter~
Shadowedhunter turned to Haze. “Haze, get the fighters prepared for battle. Then come back to me.”
(Haze)
“On it.” Haze said with a quick nod, running off to gather the fighters. She found a spot in camp where a large amount of lions were gathering, and called out to them. “We’re going to attack!” She called, smiling slightly as the lions stood up. “Shadowedhunter wants us to get ready!” Some lions ran off to find more fighters, while others came to stand by her side. After some time passed, many lions were gathered, and she returned to Shadowedhunter. “We’re ready.” She growled.
“Noooo,” Celestial groaned to herself. “Can I stay behind and defend the camp?” she asked hopefully.
~Electra~
Electra wandered casually between them. “Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down.” She licked a paw. “I think I should scout ahead, Just in case they know we’re coming.”
Shadowedhunter thought for a moment, then nodded. “Yes. Do that now, Electra.”
Electra ran out of Moon Pride, and into Sky Pride territory. She ran, and stopped right underneath Sky Pride. She started roaring. “Hurricane? Hurricane! I have a message!”
(Stormcloud)
“Who are you?” Stormcloud asked, flying down from the clouds. It was quite clearly a Moon Lion, but not a fighter for all he could tell. Should I go get someone? He wondered to himself. I’ll wait until they threaten me. He decided, half doing that so he wouldn’t have to listen to Sparrow. “Hurricane’s not here.” Stormcloud said. “He’s somewhere else, not sure where.”
Cloudwatcher followed Stormcloud, watching his back. I didn’t he was this stupid! Cloudwatcher thought, exasperated. Since when did he start to talk to more moon lions than sky lions?
~Electra~
“Oh.” Electra sighed. “Then I need to tell you something. You’re going to be attacked. And it’s my fault.” She continued. “I overheard the Sun Lions saying they were going to attack you. I told Prowler and Shadowedhunter, but I accidentally said Sky Lions were going to attack Moon Pride. Moon Fighters are coming here, and so are Sun. You need to fight, or run.”
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud felt his paws prickle, and his wings suddenly felt heavy with the weight of what he knew. “T-they can’t get to us.” Stormcloud said. “We can stay in the clouds, they won’t be able to get up there.” But the words of one of his teachers pushe’d their way into his head. Some Moon or Sun Lions have powers that can lift themselves and others into the air. “Like flying!” He had said at the time. Stormcloud turned to Cloudwatcher. “We need to tell someone about this.” He said, as if she didn’t already probably know
Cloudwatcher glared at Electra, “Can’t you just tell your pride that you made a mistake? That we aren’t going to attack the moon lions?” How could someone be so careless? She thought, angrily. “Well I guess thanks for telling us. Come on Stormcloud. We need to warn the sky tribe. Hopefully they believe us.”
~Electra~
Electra smiled. “Thank you, and again, I apologise.”
She raced back to Moon Pride.
Shadowedhunter glared at her. “Well?”
“Everything’s okay,” panted Electra, out of breath. She padded away and pulled Haze aside.
She looked deep into the other lion’s eyes. “You need to stay here.”
(Haze)
“What do you mean?” Haze snapped. “Why would I stay? The Sky Lions are about to attack!” Her eyes gleamed slightly. “Or is that exactly what you want.”
~Electra~
Electra snarled, then composed herself. “I’ve set a trap. Prowler will fall into it. We’ll be left without a leader. Who is the best lion to be the leader next?”
She motioned her tail at her. “You.”
(Stormcloud)
“Lets go.” Stormcloud said, his eyes blazing with determination. He shot upwards towards the clouds.
“Wait up!” Cloudwatcher called flying after him.
“huh?”, Prowler said to electra, “all is right?”
~Electra~
Electra grinned. “Of course.”
(Haze)
“Fine.” Haze growled. “I don’t trust you, but I’ll give this little plan of yours a chance.” She stopped. “If this plan of yours isn’t a trick, and it succeeds, I’ll promise you greater rewards then you could ever imagine.” She paused for a minute. “Who knows, you might even become the first messenger leader once I’m gone.” She made sure her voice was low enough that Prowler couldn’t hear.
~Electra~
Electra flicked her tail, satisfied. “I have more power than Prowler, than anyone. The things we messengers do” – she laughed – “you’d be surprised.”
(Haze)
“Well, you probably shouldn’t be telling me this.” Haze pointed out.
~Electra~
Electra smiled slyly. “True.” She spoke in a soft tone.
(Haze)
Haze wasn’t sure she liked being around Electra, but she knew it was necessary. “Go.” Haze whispered, flicking her tail. “I’ll stay right here.”
~Electra~
“Good.” Electra turned around. She padded over to Prowler and Shadowedhunter. “Everything’s set.”
(Haze)
“I’m staying here.” Haze said nonchalantly. “Someone needs to guard the camp.”
“If they were not attacking, we will just do more defense”, prowler said
(Haze)
Haze tilted her head slightly, confused. “What do you mean?” She asked.
(Moon) The three lions made their way toward the Sky Pride territory.
“We’re almost there!” Sky called excitedly.
Moon looked up to see that he was right. There were lions hunting in the distance.
Suddenly she heard something to her right. A herd of zebras was grazing nearby.
“Yes! I’m hungry!” Sky hissed.
Sun nodded in agreement.
Moon was unsure. “What if Sky Pride gets mad at us for hunting on their territory?”
“They probably won’t notice,” Sky said reassuringly.
Moon wasn’t reassured. Before she could stop him, Sky leaped at one of the weaker-looking zebras, killing it with one blow. Moon was surprised. She had no idea how Sky had gotten that good without noticing.
They ate the zebra while resting.
“See, that was worth it!” Sky said to Moon.
She couldn’t help thinking that it wasn’t.
(Hurricane)
As Hurricane flew back to his camp, he heard the sound of a Zebra being killed. I didn’t think any of our hunters were out now. He thought. Hurricane knew it was probably nothing, but he couldn’t shake the feeling something was wrong. He saw blood, and a zebra herd fleeing the area. He followed the trail of blood, and saw three lions eating a zebra. They looked like Moon Lions, but didn’t smell of any pride. Prideless scum. Hurricane thought. “What are you doing on our territory?” Hurricane growled, landing in front of the three lions, spreading out his wings to make him look larger.
(Sun)
Sun cowered in fear. “W-w-we wanted t-to join you.”
Moon and Sky, on the other hand looked mad.
“What’s wrong with being on your territory?” Moon growled.
(Hurricane)
Ignoring the first lion’s comment about wanting to join them, Hurricane growled back at who looked like the oldest lion of the three. “We have territory for a reason.” Hurricane growled softly. “If we let Prideless Lions like you roam around all willy-nilly, we won’t have any food left for our pride. Who even are you?” He asked, wondering if they were Moon Lions who ran away or were exiled.
Moon proudly steps forward. “ I’m Moon. This is Sky and Sun. And what Sun said was true. We wanted to join you.”
She turned toward her brothers. “Let’s go. We’re obviously not wanted here.”
Sky took another bite of the zebra. “Hold on.”
(Hurricane)
“Wait.” Hurricane said, before the lions left. “You do want to join us?” Hurricane narrowed his eyes. “We Sky Lions live in the clouds. How would land lions like you expect to get up there?”
Ember set of into the distance. he was here. i know it. His revenge was gonna be nice and sweet. Then he ran into a female lion. She looked like a Sky lion/Moon lion.
(Quake)
As Quake was about to return and tell her Pride that the Moon Lions were straying closer to the border, he saw Ember in the distance. What’s he doing? Quake thought, seeing a female lion in the even further distance. Walking up to him, Quake whispered, just loud enough for Ember to hear, “Ember, what are you doing?”
“None of your business.” Ember whispered back.
(Quake)
“It’s to dangerous for a in training lion like you to be out by yourself!” Quake protested. “I’m staying here in case Moon Lions attack, I may not be a fighter but I’m better then nothing.”
~The Whispers~
“Moon Lions attacking, eh?” The Whispers dragged herself up to the two lions.
(Quake)
Quake whirled around and saw a old lion, a Moon Lion. Come up to them. “Leave!” Quake growled, terrified for Ember. Even though the old lion probably couldn’t do much, she wouldn’t take any chances.
~The Whispers~
“Scared I might use my attack you?” She laughed. “I can barely hunt food now, lions. What makes you think I can attack?”
(Quake)
After hearing what the old lion said, Quake relaxed, just a little. “What are you doing here?” She asked more calmly.
~The Whispers~
The Whispers shrugged. “Why not?”
(Quake)
“Because this isn’t your territory.” Quake responded, trying to sound as calm as the other lion.
~The Whispers~
The Whisper glanced at the ground. “Territory? I haven’t owned territory since I was young.” She bent her head sadly. “I’m alone. I’m no threat to your Pride. If you leave me here I will die overnight. No more problems, no more hunger, no more bloodshed.” She closed her eyes. “It would be peaceful.”
(Quake)
Quake flicked her tail, conflicted. “You’re coming with us.” Quake said. “Don’t even try to run, you said it yourself, you can’t even hunt, there’s no way you could get away.” She beckoned for the lion to follow her. “You’re our prisoner now, come on.”
~The Whispers~
The Whispers tilted her head, confused. Then she realised, and let out a croaky laugh. “Oh! You think I’m in Moon Pride!” Her laugh broke off to a coughing fit and then she continued. “They exiled me. I’m Prideless now.”
(Quake)
“You’re still coming with us.” She growled. She didn’t want the old lion to be left out alone
~The Whispers~
“If you say so.” She hauled herself onto her paws.
Celestial walked around. I don’t want to fight, she complained. I want to sit around and eat. She poked her head out of some plants and saw a old moon lion and a younger,sun lion. Is that The Whispers? she wondered. She had heard about the lion who was exiled and was now prideless.
(Quake)
“Ember, come on!” Quake called to the younger lion. “I hope everyone’s fine with us bringing our new prisoner.” She muttered under her breath
~The Whispers~
The Whispers breathed heavily as she tried to keep up with the younger lions.
(Quake)
Quake slowed her pace once she heard the other lion panting. “What’s your name?” Quake asked, trying to break the silence, as Ember wasn’t saying anything.
~The Whispers~
“The Whispers,” The Whispers answered. “Once it was Aries, but that was a long time ago.”
(Quake)
“The Whispers is kinda a mouthful, so could I call you Whisper instead?” Quake asked
~The Whispers~
“Yes, yes.”
(Quake)
“Good.” Quake said. After a while of walking, they reached the Sun Lion camp.
Cloudwatcher caught up to Sparrow and the rest of the class. Thankfully, Sparrow didn’t seem to notice they gone missing again. “Hey Cloudwatcher,” her classmate, Petal said, flying next to her. “How come your sneaking out with Stormcloud so much? Are you guys like making out or something?” Cloudwatcher rolled her eyes, embarrassed. “Oh shut up,” she muttered, smacking Petal’s head. Petal grinned and flew away to another lion. She looked around and noticed Stormcloud had caught up with the group as well. “Should we tell Sparrow what we heard?” Cloudwatcher whispered to him.
(Stormcloud)
“Not Sparrow.” He whispered. “He’ll just get mad at us that we snuck off and he won’t actually listen to us.” He paused for a moment. “But who else could we tell…”
“We can tell the leader,” Cloudwatcher repiled. “But I’m not sure if he’ll believe us.”
(Stormcloud)
“We should.” Stormcloud sighed. “But I don’t know where he is.”
Cloudwatcher and the rest of the class landed on the hard clouds. Many lions scattered and began hunting. “Sparrow?” Cloudwatcher asked, sweetly. “Do you know where Hurricane is?” Sparrow peered at Cloudwatcher. “Why do you need to know?” he asked gruffly. “Oh I was just thinking of warning him about the moon lions crossing border.” Cloudwatcher repiled, not giving away anything. “He’s probably hunting,” Sparrow grunted. “What you should be doing right now.” He began to walk away. “Remember to get prey for the elders.”
(Stormcloud)
“Then we’ll go out now.” Stormcloud said, looking at Cloudwatcher to tell her that they were going to look for him.
“Yeah,” Cloudwatcher said, unenthusiastically. “I’m hungryyy,” she groaned to Stormcloud, quietly. She started flying lower down and began searching for Hurricane.
(Stormcloud)
Stormcloud flew away, and dove down to catch a bird, killing it before it could even squawk. “Maybe this’ll make Sparrow happy.” Stormcloud muttered.
“Beautiful bird,” Cloudwatcher said, dreamily. “I bet the meat is juicy and absolutely delicious. Still warm and freshly killed….” Cloudwatcher happily fluttered her wings, thinking of food. “Maybe I could eat a giant eagle or a fat ostrich or warm sparrow… Hey isn’t that Hurricane?!” she shouted, snapped out of her food fantasy.
(Stormcloud)
“You can have some if you’d li-oh it is!” Stormcloud said, startled that they found Hurricane so soon. “Hurricaaaannneeeee!” Stormcloud called, and Hurricane turned to them with a scowl.
“I don’t think that was the best way to start the conversation,” Cloudwatcher whispered to Stormcloud. “Be calm and serious or just don’t talk,” She flew over to Hurricane. “Hello, Hurricane, May we talk to you about something in private? It’s quite important and I think you’ll want to know.” she said in her mature to adults voice.
(Hurricane)
“Yes, give me one second.” Hurricane said. He turned to the Prideless Lions. “Meet me again tomorrow morning. If I’m not there, then meet me tomorrow morning. If I’m still not there, then don’t bother coming again.” Hurricane paused. “That is if you still want to join us.” He saw Stormcloud’s eyes widen. “They want to join us!” He exclaimed, which made Hurricane want to tear his ears out. He turned to Cloudwatcher. “Yes, we can talk.” He said
“I said serious and mature,” Cloudwatcher hissed at Stormcloud and immediately straighten when Hurricane looked at her. “Me and Stormcloud have been talking to Moon clan.” Before Hurricane could say anything, Cloudwatcher continued talking, “We have been informed that Moon Clan will be attacking us.”
(Hurricane)
“Really?” Hurricane asked. “This is serious, are you sure you aren’t messing around?
Cloudwatcher nodded seriously. “We were told by Moon Clan’s messenger. She might not be telling the truth, but I though I should still tell you.” When Hurricane looked away for a second, she prodded Stormcloud, “Don’t I sound mature?” she whispered.
(Stormcloud)
“The most mature I’ve ever heard.” Stormcloud whispered. “Then I’ll need to prepare my lions.” Hurricane said. “Go on ahead and tell the pride to get ready for an attack.”
Cloudwacther nodded and began to fly back to the clouds.
