Patroling

[grayfur]

ooc: Yeah that would be cool.

[silentreflection]

{*pokes thread* Um... hello?}

[dream.]

Searedheart yawned, and stretched out his stiff muscles. He quietly settled down, just outside of camp to gove his medium length auburn fur a good wash. Running his tounge down his pelt, he thought that he heard a snarl. Ears pricked, the young warrior crept closer to the noise, and peered out silently from behind a hazel thicket. What was this? Grayfur? The clan deputy? Swiping at another warrior? Any normal warrior would have leapt out from cover, and interrogated. But Searedheart was far from normal. He continued to watch, like a soap-opera fan glued to the television. What would happen next? Would there be a fight? Questions crowded his mind, but the one that stood out the most, was, How did this start?
Searedheart decided to risk stepping out. Pawstep by pawstep, he cautiously crept out of his sheltered hiding spot.
"Er...Hello?"

[grayfur]

Grayfur flattened his ears and hissed slightly at the new cat. he flicked his tail twoards the others. "Join the patrol. Hopefully, you can get some order here." He eyes Jinxfire, and sneered.

[silentreflection]

Duskyrose frowned.
"With all due respect, deputy, it wasn't lack of order and, as we have been trying to tell you, Jinxfire didn't mean it. I'm not trying to be disrespectful, but just because you don't believe it doesn't make it untrue."
There was no sneer on the title "deputy," no anger in her voice. Simply calm, kind, correction, and a tone loaded with respect. However, even Duskyrose herself was astonished at her bravery, talking that way to the Clan deputy when she tried so hard to be polite.

[grayfur]

Grayfur glared at Duskyrose. he had had a bad day as it was. he gave a mighty hiss at her, flattening his ears and growled. "Fine," he finally said. "And never talk to me like that again. I'm the depudy, and I make the rules! Untill Cloudystar pieces herself back together!" There was a slighe sneer when he said Cloudystar. rayfur was getting agitted by the Leaders lack to respond.

[needlepatch]

Winterstripe didn't say anything as she watched the argument with her claws digging deep into the ground. She stared at Jinxfire searching his face for emotion.

[grayfur]

"Fine!" Grayfur hissed. "Since you kittypets have no idea how to lead a patrol, I'll take over!" he spat at Jinxfire. Grayfur then waved his tail to show that they were moving foreward.

[needlepatch]

Winterstripe dug her claws deeper into the dirt her tail twitching with annoyance. Who did this cat think he was? she thought only a moment before she realized this was her deputy. She then nodded in Grayfur's direction waiting for him to take the lead.

[silentreflection]

Duskryose sucked in her breath as he mentioned Cloudystar. This cat was not fit to be a deputy, he showed too much contempt towards the leader. Even so, Duksyrose would not show it. She still valued her sweet life. Her sweet life had gotten better recently, anyway. She thought a moment about a certain cat's gaze, then shook herslf out of the trance. What was she doing? Fantasizing about romance? Ridiculous.
"Very... well... Grayfur," she muttered as he took over their patrol.

[mystickit]

Jinxfire had been silent still now, only looking down at his paws. "What!," he meowed, disbeilef in his vioce that Grayfur would take back the parol. Now caring how disrepectful he was sounding now, he went on, all his emotions stroming out of him. "NO! You're not taking over this patrol. I can lead it. You put me in charge of this patrol, to lead it and that's what I've been doing, you have no right to take it over!" Anger streamed throgh him. Jinxfire stepped right up to Grayfur while he talked and looked down on the cat. He loomed over Grayfur, and was taking this to hos advange, when normaly his large body has bothered him. Jinxfire made no move to attack the deputy in anyway, and was determined he would not right back if that's what it came to.

ooc: Ya Rose, that would be really cool

[grayfur]

"You don't seem to be doing a good job!" He spat. Anger burned in his eyes. Jinxfire had no idea about what was going on.

[silentreflection]

Duskyrose drew in her breath at Jinxfire's words, at Grayfur's tone.
"Please don't fight," she begged. "You are all of RiverClan. How can we stand up to other clans if we are torn inside? Please don't fight."
Her concern was earnest, as was her worry. She was more frightened that Jinxfire might be hurt, or that if Grayfur was hurt Jinxfire would be in trouble. That would not be good. Not at all.
StarClan, do not let it happen. They cannot fight. If they fight...

[mystickit]

Jinxfire's fur still bristled, he started with burning haterd toward the deputy. Not doing a good job? He was doing a fine job! Why would he think he wasn't? When he heard Duskyrose's words though, he fur lay flat. He looked over at her, giving her a thankful look. Calmly, he meowed, "Fine then. If you don't think that my job is taken care of. Take over." With that, Jinxfire moved his paws away, and toward the open space where he had been, still a little un-glued.

[foxfire]

Foxfire was crouched down in a position ready to pounce. He kept his eyes on the chaffinch near the roots of the tree. Foxfire took one step up not making a noise. He had a feeling he had this chaffinch. Awww...Yes fresh-kill for the clan, said Foxfire silently. Then Foxfire jumped through the air making no noise at all. Then suddenly the chaffinch flew away at the sound of voices in the distance. Foxfire missed the chaffinch and hit his head on the tree, "Ouch!"

Foxfire had followed the voices and found a patrol led by Grayfur. "Hey...Your commotion made me hit my head on a tree and miss a good fresh-kill." said Foxfire in no mean voice or jokingly voice.
