//A strangled smile fell from your face; It kills me that I hurt you this way\\
Dark, mud colored paws thudded lightly against the rocky ground, making no more sound than a tiny mouse. A light brown femme padded through the Fossil Valley; a solitary figure among the towering, fossil filled rocks. Her vacant, brown eyes were unfocused as she looked in front of her. Not once did she dare to look to either side. All of a sudden, a scent carried by a cool breeze made her stop.
She unsheathed her claws and dug them into the ground, narrowing her eyes. Her maw opened as she scented the cool air again. Then she realized the scent just belonged to another cat from her clan, not a trespassing rogue. Swiftflight's eyes seemed to light up as the scent grew stronger, signalling the approach of the other feline. Finally she would have some other cat to talk to after spending almost the full day in silence.
//The worst part is that I didn't even know; Now there's a million reasons for you to go\\ [/center]

xx.//I stocked up on the ropes and the chains, can we keep things together now.]]
The smokey gray tom's coat boldly contrasted the dusty earth as he ambled lightly down a slope, leading into the vast Fossil Valley. Tranquilbreeze's mouth was filled with a plethora of various roots and herbs, including the rare catmint, which he had aquired from outside clan grounds. The smell of the fresh herbs suddenly had his stomach raging with hunger. The tom realized he had not eaten all day, his thoughts too concerned with plotting to avoid Lucidhope.
xx.//My mind is a broken shell and the last pieces are covering the bathroom.]]
Wisps of dirt and ash swirled around him playfully, as if taunting him. A sudden tickle under his nose, caused the herbs to launch from his mouth with a powerful sneeze. Angry memories of Lucidhope marched back to him again, and a low growl emmitted from deep in his throat, unknowingly. He scrambled to collect the herbs before the wind swept them away.
xx.//Which way to the door? I'm being chased by doctors.]]
Without notice, Tranquilbreeze halted, mid step, noticing the prescence of another cat. The femme's sweet scent entered his parted jaws, and he confirmed it was the scent of Swiftflight. A smile curled under his whiskers. Tranquilbreeze had silently observed the she-cat before, admiring everything about her. His amber eyes flashed with mortification, as he recalled the scattered herbs, on the ashen earth. Swiftly, he brushed the array of plants into a pile and placed them neatly into a tiny crevice where they would be protected from the wind.
xx.// Lucid and tranquil, I've got my sanity.]]
Tranquilbreeze shook the dust gingerly off of his charcoal pelt, as he quietly approached the lithe femme, not wanting to frighten her by suprise. His amber eyes shone brighter than ever as approached Swiftflight. He wondered if she would feel uncomfortable around him, now that he was a medicine cat. He cleared his throat with a deep grumble, "Hello Swiftflight," came the simple greeting.
xx.//Everything I ever was in mapped out on the whiteboard, for everyone and anyone.]]

//But if you can find a reason to stay I'll do whatever it takes, to turn this around\\
The femme turned to face the tom, her brown eyes shining. She scuffed the ground beneath her paws nervously and replied, "Hello Tranquilbreeze." Her quiet, song-like voice floated through the air. She looked down at her paws for a few seconds, not knowing what to say. She had always admired the tom, but now he was a medicine cat who had a special relationship with Dreamclan. Even though this made her a little nervous, something inside Swiftflight told her that she could trust the tom.
She looked back up, her brown eyes gazing into the depths of his amber ones. She barely knew this tom, yet she felt something towards him that she had never felt before. She flicked the tip of her long, brown tail nervously and murmured, "How is life as a medicine cat?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, she knew that it was a stupid question. There were so many other things that she could have asked him. But it was done now, so she said nothing else. All of a sudden a butterfly flew through her field of vision. Being a playful warrior, her maw twisted up in a smile and she darted after the colorful creature. After running a few paces, she realized she had just run away from Tranquilbreeze. She turned and padded slowly back, her eyes fixed on the tom. "Sorry." She murmured, embarrassed. "I can be as absentminded as a kit sometimes."

xx.//Someone please show me the door.]]
Tranquilbreeze noticed a slight flash of admiration in Swiftflight's deep brown orbs, something he himself was worried may be showing in his own. He took a moment to reshelter the emotion in his thoughts, and not in his appearance. Warmth was filling him, even on a windy day in Fossil Valley, where the chilly drafts from the ruthless wind seemed to be trapped.
xx.//To sanctity my sanctuary, is hidden deep inside from most.]]
