Cult(ivated) (Stripedleaf, Open)

[Deleted]

Spottedsky, Littlewhisker, Crystallight and Roseleaf were in the newest, commen spot for their band, they even had a sort of, makeshift den if you call it, out of a bed of reeds. It almost waterproof, the sides were woven together like the bottoms of the dens.

[Tanglekit]

Stripedleaf sat quietly ranting to Thunderpelt about the gatheing of she-cats in the middle of the clearing. "They are so lazy, they just sit and gossip all day.", she smirked cheekily. She had every reason in the world to hate Spottedsky and her followers, and she didn't have to explain a one of them to anybody.

Thunderpelt sat and listened quietly. He was never talking about the group he just listened. People could say what they liked about him but Stripedleaf was a whole different story. She needed to be stood up for once and awhile. Even though she seemed really prickly she wasn't the worst she-cat in the clan.

[Deleted]

Spottedsky emerged from their spot with Littlewhisker and Roseleaf. They were all still deep into a conversation about their favorite foods.

"Every RiverClan cat knows fish is the most reliable and tasty food source!" Littlewhisker mewed, intent on winning the argument.

"But water vole is the tastiest!" Spottedsky purred, her eyes dreamy with the thought of her favorite food.

"No! Squirrels are the best! They are so foreign." Roseleaf squeaked.

[Tanglekit]

Stripedleaf wrinkled her nose in disgust at the she-cats."What fat cats, if they spent more time hunting their favorites instead of talking about them, Riverclan would have more prey.", she scoffed. In her mind all of the she-cats ate more than they brought in. She was surprised that Spottedsky had not taken on a mate, with her fur so clean and her belly so plump she would be a good mother for raising fat and lazy kits. She smiled to herself not sharing this opinion with Thunderpelt. "I saw you speaking to Crystallight the other day. What did she want?", she questioned curiosity and anger searing through her pelt.

Thunderpelt just nodded and listened as she went on. "Oh Nothing at all really.", he replied. He hadn't had time to piece through all of the things that had happened in that conversatiopn and now he just preferred to pretend it never happened.

Crystallight emerged afterward, the last of the band. Her fur was as sleek as the others, her eyes bright like her name. She smiled, "I was just going to go hunting in our thickest trees by the ThunderClan border. Anyone want to come?" she asked. Spottedsky shook her head, "Naw, me and Littlewhisker are going by the River to Sun bathe soon." she mewed, "Maybe later." Crystallight looked past Spottedsky for a moment to see Stripedleaf and Thunderpelt, she had forgotten about their chat earlier. She thought she caught his eye but looked away, she didn't want to dwell in that embarrassing moment of her life. "Ok then, Later." she smiled softly and walked over to the fresh-kill pile to grab a snack.

[Tanglekit]

Stripedleaf was appalled. Her sisters had given up on the opportunity to hunt so they could sun bathe. Crystallight was not the lowest of the low in her book for wanting to hunt, but she was still pretty far down the list because of her associations with Spottedsky.

[Deleted]

Sunlight appeared out of no where, pouncing on ThunderPelt's tail. She patted at it a few times, and smiled at him. She wanted to be his friend now-- but would he? Or was it a joke?

She didn't know at the moment, but she wanted to give it a try once more. She didn't even care that StripedLeaf was there. It didn't bother her. She wanted to play at the moment.

"Boo!"

Spottedsky shrugged, "Come 'on Crystallight, maybe we can see some young ThunderClan toms." she giggled, of coarse she would never cross her clan. "It will be fun." she mewed. "No thanks Spottedsky, I am just going to spend some time in camp I guess until I can find someone to hunt with." she sat on her own, the three sisters trailing out of the den. Crystallight sighed, it hurt sometimes, her family was totally separated and all she wanted was someone to love. One day...

[Tanglekit]

Stripedleaf smiled as the little group parted and most of the she-cats went their separate ways. "Wait do you see any flying pigs?", she asked Thunderpelt with a laugh. But he never replied and she looked his direction seeing Sunlight she buttoned her mouth and let the tom be.

Thunderpelt went a poke at his tail and he sighed. "So I see you have taken up the beast taming business as well.", he chuckled swatting back at the she-cat playfully.

[Deleted]

"Well of course... How could you tame your own?" a twinkle of excitement flicked over her crystal blue eyes. This was exciting her-- unlike any other moment. She shouldn't say she was falling for him-- mostly because it is still way too early to say so.

Sunlight Giggled when she swatted playfully at her back, which resorted into her cuffing his ears.

[Tanglekit]

Thunderpelt's ears flickered when she cuffed him, and the glimmer in her eyes made his hert pound. He felt so good about how well she was doing happiness wise. He was so pleased that she had taking liking to him, and he felt they could be good friends or hopefully more. His eyes began to glimmer and he realized he hadn't had so much fun ever.

[Deleted]

Crystallight sighed at Sunlight, was that jealously that tainted her heart? She growled a bit and turned away, her eyes narrowed. It was a chilly day but for her it was even colder. Her claws dug into the sand and turned up dirt. She is acting like a kit. They both are. These angry thoughts made her smile softly.

[Tanglekit]

Stripedleaf saw the look that Crystallight was giving her brother and she heaved herself off of her belly and walked over to the she-cat. Curiosity prickled in her pelt when she thought about how she denied Spottedsky and kept giving these odd little looks to her brother. "Crystallight why do you not go out with the other and look for a mate?", she asked trying to keep the bitterness out of her voice. Crystallight hadn't been related by blood to her so she wasn't as unbearable to speak to.

[Deleted]

Crystallight turned to the she-cat, dumbfounded that she was even acknowledging her existence let alone speaking with her about her love life. "Umm, Because I do not prefer to lye by the River." she mewed, standing up cautiously. "Why do you care if I have a mate?" she asked.

[Tanglekit]

"Just wondering. The rest of the bunch is crazy on hormones, yet you stay here.", she mewed. She was truely curious and she also wanted to know the she-cat's intentions towards Thunderpelt. Did she plan on being his friend or was she looking for more explainable why she was not out on the tom hunt.
