Stormpaw stood shakily and padded out of the apprentices den, only to be stopped by his father. Dragonheart stared wide eyed at his wounds, meowing, "What did you do?" Stormpaw only shook his head and dismissed the question, walking past his father and entering the forest, heading towards where ever his paws carried him.

Lilacpaw sensed Stormpaw's departure, and emerged from her hiding spot only to see him vanish in the stretching lands of FernClan territory. Feeling overwhelmed with guilt, she ran to a scent she recognized, of fox. It was fresh, and she walked into the den, and after a few seconds ran back out. No, I won't do that. She sprinted after Stormpaw's scent, forgetting that her scent would be distorted, a strange mix of fox and cat.

Stormpaw trotted through the territory, forgetting the moments possible dangers, and his feelings. Stormpaws mind was blank, his senses turned off. He didnt seem to care anymore as he dragged his paws through the dust towards the FernClan border.

Lilacpaw stalked him successfully, then noticed they were getting near the border. Was Stormpaw planning to leave? Because of her? Suddenly she choked in pain, and ran towards Stormpaw, jumped in front of him. "NO!" she cried, "I'm s-sorry..."

Stormpaw stopped, staring past her, unable to meet her eyes. "If you were sorry, you wouldn't have done that in the first place." He meowed. "All I asked was that you respect the desicion I would have made for you, for you!" He cried, looking away. "I know how you would have felt, I know, but I would have done it for you. Besides, Demonstorm is after me anyways."

Lilacpaw's mouth fell open, and then without one word to him, harsh or kind, she ran past him, tears streaming behind her. She didn't even stop to look back when she passed FernClan border, and quickly crossed into loner territory so she wouldn't be caught by the Clans. But really, what does it matter...? She spotted a small pond and launched herself toward it, plopping into its depths with a ploosh. I bring only pain and grief to those around me. Goodbye forever...Lilacpaw. Closing her hazel eyes, she sat at the bottom of the pond until her lungs screamed for air. Her eyes opened, and their hazel tones were now altered into a cold and frosty ice-blue. She swam to the surface, and then set off deeper into loner territory, shutting out the grief and pain, and just not caring anymore. She was no longer Lilacpaw. Not anymore. "Hey, Stormpaw," she called over her shoulder emotionlessly, loud enough he could hear from his distance, "Say goodbye to Lilacpaw. Because she doesn't exist anymore. Now, Torturepaw rules this body." Turning back, she shot off like a rocket, and sped past Stormpaw, sliding to a stop when she reached the apprentice den in FernClan territory. She didn't feel loss, or shame. She didn't feel...anything.

Stormpaw stared at Lilacpaw, meowing, "Who are you? Lilacpaw, I would only give myself in if it would mean saving you in any way. I would gladly flay Demonstorm for the pain he caused the Clan! Can you not see that?" He meowed desperatly.

"I told you," she replied, voice flat, "I'm not Lilacpaw. I am Torturepaw, now go away. Do you really think I care anymore?" She shook her head, making tsk tsk noises. "You drove me too far, Stormpaw. Its too late for that."

Stormpaw shook his head. "No, I won't stop. Lilacpaw, I kow you are there, though you may deny it. I said what I said for you Lilacpaw, not for me, not for Demontstorm. For you." He sighed. "You don't see me giving up on you, so why do you give up on me?"

She only gazed into his eyes, not going to be turned off her new path easily.
What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?
She narrowed her eyes. "Lilacpaw isn't in here," she hissed, denying it yet again. She unsheathed her claws, this time consciously.
I told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means...
She flexed her claws against the ground in the den, and her guard went down. The outer 'skin' of Torturepaw vanished for a moment. "I'm sorry, Stormpaw."
To be a joke and look, another line without a hook...
She growled at him, and in that instant the layer went back up. Her defenses were iron and her face stony.
I held you close as we both shook for the last time, take a good hard look!
She lay down in the den, and closed her eyes, falling into a calm, dreamless slumber.

Stormpaw was joyed at seeing Lilacpaws defenses go down, but as soon as they were rebuilt, he seemed to sink, both physically and emotionally.

{(Sorry for the absence, we had extra football practices.)}
Demonstorm slowly stalked through the loners territory, close to Fernclan. A scent hit him as he turned. 'Lilacpaw', He thought without much intrest, yet he still followed the scent. "Lilacpaw." He snarled as he stood in the mouth of the cave, and taking small steps into it.

Stormpaw sat silently, then lifed his muzzle into the ari, silently testing it for scent. All seemed fine. A rabbits scent carried towards him from beside, so Stormpaw crouched into his hunters stance, stalking forwards to pounce. The tom leaned back on his haunches, about to spring forwards, when the wind shifted and another scent came to him almost immediatly. Demonstorm! The scent was very fresh, and Stormpaw whipped around, gasping....

OOC: They're in the apprentice den Brambles XD And Dark...Well lets pretend their in a forest I guess
Lilacpaw flicked her ears at a sound behind her, and her eyes flew open. She opened her mouth, inhaling. Her face was away, so she couldn't see Demonstorm, but his scent hit the roof of her mouth with a horrible tang to it. "Demonstorm?!" she snarled, voice highpitched. She sprung up quickly and whipped 'round to face him. "Demonstorm," she confirmed, the hatred that dripped from her voice like poison. Without waiting for a retort she bunched her muscles, then next minute she soared through the air towards Demonstorm, landing directly in front of him. Before he could make the next move, she lashed out savagely with her claws. Crimson lines were etched across his face now.

Demonstorm just stared at Lilacpaw his eyes narrowed and colder then ever before. His pelt was now ragged and missing several parts of it. A fresh wound laid across his muzzle. He was thin, but he was much more muscular than when he left. His appearance was just a summary of his new life as a rouge. "Lilacpaw." He said calmly as if she was just standing there. "You've seen my kits." He stated and turned as he smelled Stormpaw as well. "Where are they?" He asked his voice hard and guarded now.
