Sitting atop Fencepost ;;;open|

Rowan still trembled, but it lessened as the cats seemedless tense. Did they think a mere cat only a kit, could harm them?
What did mother call it that she said Clans have? Ah yes... apprentice. I'm apprentice age now to these cats, if they even were a clan.. Rowan thought to himelf. He looked at the offering of rabbit the one cat had given him, and crouched down, ravenously eating the rabbit, uncaring of any neat manners in his hungry state. As he began to finish, he slowed down. When only a bit of meat and carcass were left, Rowan picked up his head and looked at the cats, forcing a smile. Though her was fully aware of his unappealing state. His face fur was plastered back with the rabbit's blood, and he was mainly a wreck. He took in a deep breath, laying down to help himself relax.
"Th-hankss...." Rowan mumbled, looking thankfully at the cats who gave him a meal.

[teal]ooc: Ahh, sorry guys. I've been unbelievably busy.[/teal]

"Why are you here, young loner?" It was a gentle question, but a firm one. Winterstar was no longer hostile, but she was not the type to just let a intruder go without a questioning. This was her land, and the apprentice-aged, starved cat was on it and didn't have permission. It was not going to end in battle, of course, but still - knowing about all loners was a good thing. Friendships with the wandering cats could also be infinitely helpful. So there was no reason not to be kind and reasonable, warm to the pathetic little thing before her. Besides, Flashclaw would probably be impressed with the calmness that... no! Winterstar, stop. Don't worry about what he thinks, think instead about this newcomer. She scolded herself firmly, bringing her own mood down a couple notches.

Rowan shrugged.
"Looking for help..." Rowan murmured, obviously regaining strength. He twisted his leg to show Winterstar the gaping gash along his back right leg. "Big dogs...huge, then the owls tried...to eat at me..."
Rowan was strong enough now to sit up. These cats seemed to pity him, but there was fight and muscle under this cat's pitiful state. Some cat only had to help him coax it back out.

ooc// Okay seriously, Luna... I've seen you on, but you NEEVVERRR post here!

[[^^].Luna.[^^]]

OOC: That's 'cause I'm always waiting for everyone else to post! xD I'll post soon.... I have to go to dinner. But next time I'm on, I'll forget about those two and post!

The warrior code stated that any cat must always help a kit in distress, no matter what Clan or family the young one was from. This cat, though more apprentice age by looks, was still probably included. It would be a terrible thing to do not to help him. Besides, Flashclaw would think her a cold fool. She chose her words carefully as she spoke: "PastureClan will help you. This is not an offer for you to stay indefinitely and I'm not welcoming you to join my Clan. You will come to camp with us and be treated by our medicine cat. After that.. everything depends." She didn't show her uncertainty, but she didn't know at all whether this was the right choice. Had she made everything clear enough? Would her Clanmates despise him and be angry at her? Did Flashclaw like this choice? I'm acting like an apprentice with a crush, she told herself sternly. Her rampaging emotions, and keeping them hidden, was starting to wear away at her previous good mood. She let herself glance back at first her brother and then let her gaze linger for only a second on Flashclaw.

For a moment, Rowan looked unsure. He wasn't sure if he'd like going back to living alone. He was too weak, and very ill educated.
"Why do you act so protective when I'm not going to harm you, or your clan?" Rowan meowed with curiosity. "There's so much I've always wanted to know about Clans and how they work." and this might actually be my chance to find out everythign! he added silently in his head. He began swiping his tonge across his pelt, which was littered with the hare's flesh.

"There is nothing in my mind against you, youngster, but I am not going to guaranty you anything - I have only just met you, and my Clan is made up of lifetime bonds." She looked at him with her sharp orange eyes, her muscular, sand-colored form relaxed but never forgetting to be alert, guarded. Her gaze was not hesitant, but pure and decided. It was clear that no words would sway her. She knew better than to let strangers into her heart before they proved themselves trustworthy, no matter how harmless their words or appearance were. She challenged him with her orbs to go against this firm standing.

[sandi]

Instintively after seeing the cat's defensive stance, he crouched low with his tail and head down. He let out a deep, blank sigh.
"I am willing to bond... I'm willing to be a cat of a Clan, in fact I've always wanted to be part of one and learn these ways, but... My question is... Will you take me?" Rowan mewled, though did not look up at Snowstar, who he was guessing was the leader of this clan. He remained though, in an unintimidating pose for the cats.

OOC: Her name is Winterstar ^^ Anyway, I'm gonna wait for the other two again. *calls*
