Hesitation prevented him from walking into the next territory, where the scents were different and unfamiliar. The smell of nearby cats though was making his mind urge him to go on ahead and move. First it was a paw, with his jaws parted to catch any sign of another cat. None so far. When his whole body was over the border and into the more tropical land, muscles were tense and his senses were alert.
'Hello?' Of course, he wasn't very loud. It was like a nervous murmur, really. Uncertainty of whether this is the Clan that has stories of being cruel and decietful was what kept him from venturing very far. When a new scent was carried on the breeze, he froze. Another feline. He waited, and kept his claws sheathed--he wanted to show he posed no threat. So he waited, tense, and unsure. [/center][/blockquote] |

A huge black tom pelted through the territory he called home, opening his maw in frustration to scent again. The winds had changed just after he had scented an intruder...a stranger. Green eyes shining like chips of emerald, he skidded to a stop where tall reeds stood, concealing anything ahead. This must be the place, and he knew it. He knew the stranger knew it as well, but that didn't matter.
The winds were different now, and the stranger was surely alerted, but Devilstar bunched his muscles and sprang anyway, soaring over the reeds and landing atop the intruder as his eyes widened. He leaned his whole body to the left with all his force and managed to tumble away off of the tom. Digging his claws into the sand at the first opportunity he came to an arupt stop, jerking his head around to see if the other was alright.

Yes, Zacky was able to smell the Clan cat coming, but he was nonetheless startled when the dark-pelted tom appeared from the reeds. His hazel orbs stretched, but was careful to make sure his body was showing no threat. But he couldn't keep his fur from standing on end; it was instinct. 'Forgive me, for my intrusion.' Somehow, he managed to keep his voice from quivering. His posture straightened out, his muscles relaxing just a tad. [/center][/blockquote] |

Devilstar brushed himself off with a scoff. "You need not be sorry," he said kindly, "I should be apologizing for my actions." He licked his fur flat and then took a step closer to the stranger. He would be a good warrior, he thought dettachedly. He looked over Zacky, taking in the muscles and over-all appearance. "What are you doing here in BeachClan? We don't have loners in the area - you must have come far...or I may be un-informed, he mewed quietly. He didn't look too threatening, so he sheathed his claws and sat down, awaiting an answer.

Zacky wasn't completely sure how to ask, so he decided to just say what need be said. 'I..I was curious to know if I could join your Clan.' Now that wasn't so hard, was it? his thoughts echoed in his ears. 'And you are right, I have come quite a distance. I want to start over and try to make what I can of my life, now that my past is behind me.' A series of images flashed in front of his hazel eyes, and he blinked, in an attempt to ignore the memories. His night-black fur was now flattened, but he didn't sit, like the other tom did.

Devilstar's emerald green eyes flickered momentarily with uncertainty, but it was such a quick instant it must have seemed like a blessing from DreamClan themselves he could hide it so well. "I see," was all he said, undecisively. After a few moments, he turned to return to his Clan, looking over his shoulder. "You may stay for a few days, until I come to a final decision," he said with a smile.

A grin so large came onto Zacky's maw that he had to struggle to not allow it to be stretch so wide. 'Thank you, thank you very much,' he breathed, surprised the Clan leader is allowing him to stay. Then it struck him--he hadn't even mentioned his own name! 'My name is Zacky, by the way.' He hesitated to ask another question, but went with the idea he had that Devilstar wouldn't get too annoyed. 'I'm probably going to come off as dumb, but what Clan is this? I don't really know the names of any of the Clans.' [/center][/blockquote] |
