Spottedpelt bounded into the camp clearing, shaking off the loose thorns and leaves in her fur after emerging from the gorse tunnel. She cast a glance over her shoulder at Badgerstep before turning around to face her. "Hey, you up for some fresh-kill?" she offered, flicking her tail in the direction of the pile of prey that stood in the midst of the clearing. "And I suppose you've hunted for the elders and queens already?" Spottedpelt spun around to face Adderstrike; ShadowClan deputy. She frowned in defiance but couldn't help feel embarrassed. How could she have forgotton to hunt? "Er, I hunted earlier." she mewed lamely. She was half-honest, since she had been on a hunting patrol that morning, but had eaten her share then.
Adderstrike stayed silent for a moment before giving Spottedpelt a tiny nod. "Very well, Spottedpelt." The calico warrior could almost see a hint of amusement in Adderstrike's yellow-green eyes, but before she could be sure, the deputy had already retreated toward Foxstar's den. Spottedpelt's eyes followed him the entire time, but then twitched her whiskers. "Boy, you'd say that his kin were adders themselves," she snorted, though a hint of admiration lined her words. "Anyway, you up for sharing a meal?" she repeated, taking her mind of Adderstrike for a moment.
OOC:: I think Spottedpelt will take a fancy in Adderstrike soon.

Badgerstep skidded into camp after her friend, out of breath. Her pawpads were hurting, but she ignored it. Opening her mouth to reply to Spottedpelt's question, she was cut off by the deputy. Badgerstep watched the two. She had been planning on hunting, but never did. So she stayed quiet, and just listened to Adderstrike and Spottedpelt. The black and white she-cat thought she saw the amusement in the deputy's eyes too, but she couldn't be sure.
Badgerstep waited patiently as Spottedpelt watched Shadowclan's deputy dissappear. She nudged her friend's shoulder, whispering quietly, "Stop staring, someone might notice." Then, replying to the question, she mewled. "Sure. Want a vole?" Heading towards the freshkill pile, she absentmindedly looked around to see if she could spot Jaggedstripe.

OOC:: Lol, should I make Jagged appear? o3o
Spottedpelt snorted when Badgerstep nudged her, and finally tore her gaze off Adderstrike. "Hmph, I wasn't staring, you furball." she protested, frowning arrogantly. Though she relaxed as they neared the pile of fresh-kill. "You bet I would!" she exclaimed, finally realizing how hungry she was. The last time she had eaten was sunhigh the day before. Lunging a paw into the pile, Spottedpelt dragged out a vole and tore half of it apart, so she and Badgerstep could share it.

Biting into the portion of vole Spottedpelt gave her, she smirked. "Yeah right. That was too staring," Badgerstep said nothing else, not wanting to upset her friend. "You picked a good vole," she commented quietly. She twitched her whiskers as she realized she was hungry, too, and quickly finished her half of the prey. Swallowing, she looked over to see if Spottedpelt had finished hers.

Spottedpelt licked her lips as the enticing prey-scent filled her nostrils, and finished her half of the vole in a couple of famished gulps. Somewhat satisfied, she smiled at Badgerstep. "Any prey is good prey," she replied bluntly. She began to think about the shortage of prey in their territory, but then shook the thought off. Suddenly, a gray shape emerged from the warriors' den, and Spottedpelt gave Badgerstep a nudge as Jaggedstripe trotted toward them. "You two are up unusally early this morning," he remarked briskly, giving the two she-cats a curious glance. Adderstrike told him to roung up a hunting patrol, due to the prey becomming so scarce, and he had thought of taking Spottedpelt and Badgerstep when he saw them once he entered the clearing.

Badgerstep gigles slightly under her breath as her friend nudged her. When Jaggedstrip reached where they were, she answered him. "Y-yes, I suppose we are," she stuttered softly. She hoped he didn't notice and ask about it. If so, she would have no answer. She stood up, streching her paws. Flicking her tail, her mind wandered off to the scarcity of prey in their territory. She wondered if it was happening in the other clans, too. she quickly shook away her thoughts, having them replaced as she wanted to know what patrol she would be on that morning.

Jaggedstripe thought he hear Badgerstep stutter slightly, and raised a brow curiously. He had noticed that the black and white warrior always acted differently around him, but he simply ignored it. Clearing his throat, he went on, "Well, either way, Adderstrike had told me to lead a hunting patrol. Are you two willing to come along?" he asked, twitching his whiskers expectantly. He would've just hunted alone, but he didn't mind taking others with him.

"Sure," she said shyly, eyes gleaming. She liked hunting, and was pretty decent at it too. "Are we going right now, or waiting for more cats?"" she asked. Moving from paw to paw, she hoped it was the first one. Even though she and Spottedpelt had just gotten back in camp, she itched to do something. Waiting for a reply, she decided it was no use to stand up. So she sat down and flicked her tail impaitently.

Jaggedstripe shook his head. "No, we have enough cats," he meowed stubbornly. "We should head out now." He flicked his tail as a gesture for the duo to stand up, and then trotted towards the camp entrance. Spottedpelt rolled her behind his back, and frowned at Badgerstep. "Are you sure he's the tom you're falling for?" she asked, rising to her paws. "And besides, I don't think he even noticed the way you looked at him." she teased, flicking Badgerstep's ear with her tail in amusement.

Featherflight padded toward the nursery, surprised she didn't hear any of her kits voices. She poked her head through the entrance to check on Thistlekit, Lilykit, and Hawkkit. The queens eyes widened when she realized they weren't there. Where are they?! She was frantic, they were in the nursery only a moment ago. She couldn't stop them anywhere in camp, the queen had only gone the the dirt-place, how far could've they gone? "My kits!" she cried out, racing around the camp to check by every spot they could've been hiding in. "Oh my precious kits, where have you gone?" Featherflight murmured, her voice full of fear and concern.

"Yes, I'm fairly certain that's him; unless he suddenly got a twin that looks and acts like him," Badgerstep remarked, then added another sentence as a second thought. "Are you sure Adderstrike is the tom you're falling for?" she asked, rather teasingly. trotting a few fox-lengths behind Jaggedstripe, she looked at Spottedpelt. "I don't think he noticed either... is that good or bad?" Badgerstep said, not knowing.
Hearing Featherflight, she spun around. "What's wrong?" she asked her, concerned. Badgerstep didn't hear what the other cat had said, only her voice. But, she could tell it wasn't good.

Spottedpelt was startled by Badgerstep's accusation, and snorted in fake contempt. "A-Adderstrike? Who are you kidding?" she retorted, bristling in surprise and anxiety. She felt her ears growing hot and a chill run down her spine. How had Badgerstep known? Well, Spottedpelt was only beginning to take a fancy into Adderstrike, but how could her friend have foundd out so soon? She finally gave in and blushed, staring down at her paws. "Well.. he's not that bad." she muttered. Spottedpelt was relieved when Badgerstep changed the subject to Jaggeddstripe, and relaxed a bit. "Don't worry, he'll notice you sooner or later."
Suddenly a yowl erupted from ahead of them, and Spottedpelt jumped in surprise. Was that Featherflight? She quickly followed Badgerstep with Jaggedstripe bounding ahead of them.

Featherflight turned around to look at the warrior, "Thistlekit, Lilykit, and Hawkkit have gone! I-I can't find them anywhere!" she cried, her tail swishing around desprately. The queen's fur was fluffed out and her eyes were somewhat damp.

Jaggedstripe's fur bristled and the blank look in his eyes turned into concern. "Don't worry, we'll find them." he assured the distressed queen, giving Featherflight's ear a comforting lick. It was very surprising to see Jaggedstripe like this; since no one knew he had a soft spot for kits. "Where did you see them last?" he prompted, his eyes slightly narrowed in a serious look as he gazed intently on Featherflight. He was so focused on finding Featherflight's kits that he barely noticed Badgerstep and Spottedpelt, and didn't even try to conceal his anxiety for the queen and her kits. Spottedpelt widened her eyes incredulously, and she had to bite down hard to keep her jaws from gaping. "Have you ever seen Jaggedstripe like that before?" she hissed into Badgerstep's ear, while her eyes remained fixed on Jaggedstripe.

Featherflight was grateful for the warriors comforting lick, thought it didn't make her much calmer. Her kits were missing, how could she be calm! "T-they were in the nursery when I last saw them." she meowed, glancing over her at sleeping place. "I-I only went to the dirt-place!" she murmured again, Featherflight couldn't understand how three kits could just dissaprear in moments.
