A tiny gray-brown and white tom padded along the borders, staring, forlorn, out towards a neutral strip of territory that led towards the unclaimed. He heaved a sigh, looking back at his paws. He strode in a way that would not give away his feelings, strode like a proud warrior, but one look at the tom's face and you would know his feelings.
One might think he was an apprentice or even a kit by his small size, but the way he carried himself could dispell that thought fairly quickly. Then again, there were some pretty proud apprentices...But Noblefire was well-known, being a leader before. Surely none could mistake the great Noblestar for a kit!
He paused at the sound of pawsteps as a familiar scent reached his nostrils.

Crystalgaze walked over, relieved of finally being able to be home. She smiled a bit, before she stopped when Noblefire stopped. She knew in the back of her head, that Noblefire, would probably hear her stop. Not really caring anymore, she said,
"... Um... Hi...?" She then sat down patiently for the scold to come.
(OOC: Lots of movements, yes?)

Noblefire's eyes widened as he registered that it was really Crystalgaze, truly her, here before him. But then they narrowed in annoyance. "CRYSTALGAZE! Where have you been?!" he screeched, tackling her to the ground and nuzzling her. He was kind of giving off mixed signals...
He smiled despite his yelling, happy she was here...

"Ooof!" Crystalgaze smiled despite the weight on her. She was purring a bit, nuzzling back.
"Well... I fell asleep on a turtle, and when I woke up I was FAR AWAY from here. So I walked around, trying to find my way back, couldn't find it, gave up for a while, and here I am!" She smiled triumphantly at the end.

Noblefire's gaze turned to disbelief and then utter annoyance. His eyes were halfclosed and he sighed, rolling off of his 'daughter' before standing and looking her in the face. "You. Fell asleep. On a turtle." He repeated, narrowing his eyes even further. He flicked his tail against Crystalgaze's forehead with force.
"You are the biggest mousebrain I have ever met, Crystalgaze," he admitted.

Crystalgaze glared at the tail for a while, before she grinned at Noblefire's statement.
"Why yes, yes I am. I'll gladly do something ELSE mousebrained so I can keep the spot, too!"

"Silly kit, the spot will always be reserved for you," Noblefire commented, removing the tail from its spot on her forehead. Then he hit her again with it as he grinned a triumphant grin. "Mousebraaaaiiiin...."

Crystalgaze pouted as much as a cat can pout at the kit statment, and she grinned back. Then pouted again as she was hit on the head with the tail again.
"Why! Yes, yes I am. Thank you! Thank you!" She bowed her head, and pretended to receive praise from a non-existent crowd.

Noblefire smirked slightly, then his expression grew serious. "Crystalgaze, you are no longer deputy," he told her sadly, "No one is. DreamClan relinquished all power..." Then he paused, scowling. "But failed to tell us what to do next..."

Crystalgaze 'Hnned' slightly. She had a question in her head, but she didn't know to say it or not. So she did.
"Er... So it's like that no Clans anymore?" She wasn't really phased at the not a deputy anymore, she didn't know why thought. "Or... not?"

"Th-there's still Clans!" Noblefire objected defensively, "We just have to wait for further instruction." He muttered something about how he wished Crystalgaze had become leader and hit her again across the forehead, for no apparent reason other than to vent.
"We are still Clans...senior warriors have sort of taken charge." The tom didn't want to admit he was classified a 'senior warrior' now, but he added, "I have too."

Crystalgaze smirked slightly, seeing as her dad admitted he was old. She glared at his tail a bit, because of being hit with it so many times.
"Do you have something to hit me a lot for?"

(OOC: He's not OLD! DX)
In reply to her question, Noblefire only hit her again.
Before she could respond, he wheeled around and tore off with a grin over his shoulder at his daughter. As if daring her to try and catch up to him, ha! One thing Noblefire would always be renowned for, even after his days as an apprentice and young warrior were spent, was his tremendous speed. Even after both of his back legs were broken - twice.

"Gahh!" She glared at the tail again, before taking off after her dad, when he took off running. She was behind him seconds.

But Noblefire sped up, and shot even farther ahead of her, laughing. He turned sharply to avoid crossing borders out of BlazeClan territory and then streaked into a bush when he thought he was out of sight of Crystalgaze. There he waited to pounce on her as soon as she approached.
