vivid missions of a young vanguard on a mission // joining
By: Zenith Date: July 23, 2016, 10:31 pm

Where in the world was she? Everything familiar had long since
faded away into the distance, leaving behind nothing but the
sense that she wasn't supposed to be here at all. The dark gray
tabby had grown up among fields and meadows, not in these clumps
of trees that blocked out all sunlight. She'd followed some
elusive scent in here, and had promptly gotten lost for days.
With a calm mind she'd likely have found her way out again
easily, but fear had shadowed all judgment.
Flint was hardly more than a kit, but felt much smaller than
that right now. Her mother had always told her to be especially
careful in strange places, but with the yummy smell of rabbit
that seemed so close, well... who could resist trying to show
off? She shook off these thoughts, once again sniffing in
deeply. Ah, what was that? Cat, definitely--maybe someone who
knew her family! The tabby took off running, hurtling right over
SkyClan's border before slowing to a walk. "Uh... hello? Can
anyone help me?"

Pikestar burst through some bushes near Flint in pursuit of
the rabbit the tiny kitten had scented a moment ago. Darting
past Flint, Pikestar was able to swiftly kill the rabbit before
he caught the scent of another cat nearby.
Is that milk? he asked himself. Pikestar began to trace the
scent back to Flint, his rabbit weighing heavy in the leader's
powerful jaws.
Pikestar stopped abruptly as he almost padded the poor
kitten. "Excuse me," he meowed in a soft tone, "are you lost?"

Maplekit had followed Pikestar out of camp. She probably wasn't
supposed to, but she didn't really care. She wanted to show off
her 'amazing hunting skills' to the leader. She stopped as she
scented the milk, looking around. Milk? Do I get some? she
thought. She looked up. Pikestar had stopped, and was carrying a
rabbit. She followed his gaze to his paws. Her eyes grew round
at the sight of another kitten. She crawled forward, staring at
the kit with curiosity as Pikestar talked to it in a soft tone.

[font=times new roman][color=#ffb887]Juniperpaw soon bounded out
of the bushes Pikestar had just a moment before, having been
trying to keep up with the older time while they chased down the
rabbit. He slowed when he saw that the leader had finally caught
it. Ignoring the rabbit scent, he picked up the warm scent of a
young kit, and he swiftly figured out it wasn't Maplekit when he
glanced down at an unfamiliar gray scrap in front of Pikestar.

Flint gave a quick little shudder, trying to hide her surprise
at having someone dart out of the bushes so suddenly. She
glanced around, taking in each new and unfamiliar face. She
practically glared at Pikestar, pushing her fear away--surely
they wouldn't harm a kit, right? The other one there looked
fine. The tabby attempted a snarl, although on her it probably
only looked cute, adorable. "That's my rabbit," she called out,
hopefully sounding brave. Boldly she padded over, pawing at the
fresh-kill. "And, no, I'm not lost. I was just hunting... and my
mama went off somewhere, wandering. Can you help me find her?"
Maybe, if she acted like her mama was the lost one, then
perhaps... perhaps it wouldn't be true, and she wouldn't be in a
strange place with unknown strangers. That always worked in the
stories, right?

[font=arial] Pikestar frowned. This kit should know better
than to be hunting on Clan grounds, or to be hunting at all.
However, the warrior code stated that he had to help her, so he
would. Pikestar would have loved to send the kit on her way with
a mouse or two, but laws are laws and as leader he had a duty to
place, practice and enforce them.
"Your mother is lost?" he repeated. "Well, where did you see
her last?"[/font]

"I... don't really know. Some meadows that way," she said,
waving her tail vaguely. Everything looked so similar here, how
was she supposed to know what direction she came in? But these
guys should know where the meadows were, right? Adults knew
everything, or at least her mama did. "You all live together?"
she asked, glancing from Pikestar to Juniperpaw to Maplekit.
"Weird." Flint had only ever really known her mother, though
they'd met plenty of other loners just passing by. She'd assumed
all cats just naturally lived by themselves.

"Yeah, we live together! It's really fun, you should live with
us," Maple exclaimed, bouncing a bit out of excitement.

[font=arial] Pikestar flicked his tail. [I]Meadows... Sounds
like WindClan. I can't just send warriors into their territory,
especially not in the pursuit of a loner that could be long gone
by now.[/I]
Hearing Maplekit, Pikestar turned seeing the kit. "Look who's
the little escape artist. Maplekit, you should be in camp, you
know that."
The mackerel tabby then turned to Flint. "However, she is
right. It seems that your mother is missing. A cat as young as
you shouldn't be alone. You're welcome to join SkyClan until we
find her."[/font]

She blinked, nodding. There was no way she wanted to live out
here all on her own--all sorts of scary creatures could be out
here! Bears, foxes, badgers... at least she'd forgotten all
about them until now, when she seemed to be safe. "Join...
SkyClan? My mama said a few things about you--good stuff though!
But I thought those were only stories. I'm Flint, by the way."
