A ripple of movement obscured the miniscule fresh kill pile as a shecat dashed past. "Poisonpaw!" her call was gentle, but demanding. Her head peaked into the apprentice den, her pale green optics light with energy and determination. "Poisonpaw!" she called again, not caring if she woke all the apprentices. It was barely sunrise but that didn't matter. Sagefur felt like restocking the fresh kill pile, and she didn't care if she awakened her apprentice from a wonderous dream; or any of the apprentices for that matter. All that mattered to her was making sure Thistle had something to eat when she woke. She didn't enjoy when Poisonpaw was upset o grumpy, but she didn't care much either. Out of all the StalkClan cats, she was one of the kindest, but Poisonpaw was a hastle. He never wanted to kill wandering loners and he never liked to chat about the four Others taking over the whole forest, destroying the four pathatic Clans. |

Poisonpaw was instantly on his paws, his mentor's sharp mew waking him from another dreamless sleep. He shook the bits of moss that clung to his fur and dashed out of the den, looking alert and focused torward's Sagefur. "Yes, Sagefur?" he asked, his small voice a little sharp. He hadn't gotten much sleep last night, and waking up before sunrise was not something he had planned on. He shook it off anyway, and put on an emotionless face for her. |

Sagefur was impressed and pleased by her apprentice's alertness. "Excelent responce." she complimented lightly, not letting her pleasure show. Her eyes held a gentle look, but never did they show her thoughts. Whether she be anger or content, it was never able to be read through her eyes or lips.
"The fresh kill pile is running low, as you very well know. I have taken it upon myself to make sure there is enough prey for our leader and deputy when they awake. I would be delighted to have you come along." her voice was gentle but strict. Although it sounded as if Poisonpaw had a choice whether to go or not, she was sure he would know that because of his low status, a mere apprentice, he had no say in the matter. |

He nodded his thanks for her compliment and listened intently. Of course, he would be delighted to catch something for their beautiful leader, Thistle. 'What tom wouldn't?' he asked himself and waited for his mentor to finish. "Of course, Sagefur. Where are we going?" he asked indifferently, careful not to do or say anything that might label him as eager. |

Sagefur let a grateful smile slip for a moment before carefully hiding it behind stern glare. "Twoleg place." she mewed after a moments thought. "I think I'm in the mood for kittypet, and let's hope Thistle is as well." Her tone was mild, average. All of the Clans, both The Others and the pathetic, rarely hunted kittypets, or even loners. But, Sagefur had had enough with competeing for territory with the so called vicious tom kittypets just outside the StalkClan border. She searched Poisonpaw's eyes, trying to sense hesitation. "Of course, if that won't do for you, I guess a ThunderClanner will be fine." Again she searched, knowing how Poisonpaw usually felt about all the Clans being equal. |

He felt his ears go back at this. He didn't want to kill a kittypet for food, or any cat really. This was something that no one understood about him, even him. "I-uh, well. C-can't we just, um, you know, go hunting for rabbit o-or something el-else," he stuttered, remembering vividly what would have happened to him if he had suggested that to his parents or anyone in the Clan before he came To StalkClan. He would never be able to get those images out of his head, no matter how much he wished to. |

Sagefur's pale green optics narrowed slightly as a small smile curved her lips. This was the answer she had expected. "So, you telling me you're weak? You can't even kill a cat for the well being of your own Clan? I don't understand how Thistle could have excepted you into StalkClan." she raised a paw as if she were going to strike her apprentice. No one would blame her or punish her for it. But, something held her back as her smile dissipated. Perhaps Poisonpaw wasn't so bad, just different. Sagefur looked away, eyes closed as she sat back on her haunches. Her muscles rippled and her scars shone but her beauty was there; hidden behind walls of anger and the beliefs shoved down her throat when she was an apprentice. She stayed silent for a moment before speaking. Her words were soft, and her eyes never opened and she never faced him. "Two of each shall rise. Change will occur. For better or worse is up to them." her voice seemed distant, not hers. When her eyes opened she turned her head to look at Poisonpaw. Her eyes glowed violet. A sweet, nurturing violet. The pale green pushed its way back in as her face grew grim. She was Sagefur once more. "Come on then, you pathetic kittypet. I guess a forest creature will have to make due." With that she stood and turned to walk into the trees. Her tail lashed irritably and her eyes were shining with vicious blood lust. But beneath it all, relief surfaced. Finally, the ones to free us from un-needed war have risen... OOC//: Basically, Sagefur secretly worships StarClan so StarClan alerted her to the two cats from each Other clan that would lead everyone either away from an unneeded war to destroy TC, WC, RC, and SC or perhaps make matters worse. Either way, Sagefur plans on being a follower. One to listen to the chosen cats and go against anyone who tries to make war. |

Poisonpaw was stunned by his mentor's words. The eye color change had really freaked him out though. There were no words to what e felt now. Whether it was relief or terror, he didn't know, but both washed over him in a sudden current that even he didn't understand. He followed Sagefur numbly, wondering what had happened to her just now. "Sagefur?" His voice was small and quiet, obviously giving option to ignore him.
Ooc:ll Okay. |

Sagefur paused, unsure of whether she should respond or not. Slowly she turned, hiding her relief behind a wall of mild annoyment. "What, Poisonpaw?" she mewed roughly, although she did want to hear what the cat said. This cat would soon be her leader, if all went as planned. She had to get used to listening to him. |

Poisonpaw laid back his ears adn looked sideways to the ground beside him, his eyes narrowed slightly in fear. "I-is everything alright? Are you alright?" he asked referring to her distant, disturbing words that had come out of nowhere. But, yet again, he was giving her the option of ignoring him. It was unlike him to pry, and he wouldn't start now. |

Sagefur considered the toms words. I could tell him, right? StarClan will be telling him anyway...She then shook her head, pushing away the thought. "They'll tell you when they think necessary." she mewed gently. She couldn't say StarClan for either someone could hear them or that would give it away. |

He was obviously confused by this. "Huh?" Then he just shook his head. As Sagefur had said, they, whoever they were, would tell him later. 'No prying,' he thought, though he was very clearly trying hard not to. "So, where are we hunting again?" he asked, trying to sound nonchalent.

Sagefur continued to walk, ignoring the cats 'Huh?'. When his next question came out, she looked back up him, trying to lookslightly angry, but she was sure it was a look of amusement. "I was going to go to WindClan to nab us a tasty WindClanner. But, seeing as you oppose to that, I guess we can just steal a few rabbits from WindClan territroy." |

He just nodded and looked at his white paws. Even if they weren't killing a cat, they would still be stealing, and that was only slightly better. He scowled himself, angry at the way he was always so nice. He was starting to geton his own nerves. 'Wow,' he thought. |

Sagefur watched her apprentice for a moment before continuing onb. It didn't take too long for her to scent the thick foresty ThunderClan scent. StalkClan territory borders ThunderClan. They had to cross ThunderClan in order to get to WindClan. We could hunt ThunderClan prey... Sagefur suggested to herself. No, their prey is small while rabbits are big. With that, she hesitated and then took a step over the border. Let's hope we dont't find a ThunderClan patrol. She turned her eyes to Poisonpaw. "If we get caught on this territory, you're my son, okay? We're loners. Let's hope they don't know StalkClan scent. Let me do most of the talking though, okay?" she waited to see if her apprentice understood. |
