It was a breezy day. A brown and white tabby grumbled as she entered the hollow, her tail twitching and Amber eyes scanning her surrondings. Her name was Acaciashade. The she-cat had just got back from a hunting mission and had not brought back any prey. Acaciashade had crossed the border and had caught a rabbit, but then had to leave it. The brown and white tabby sat down and curled her tail around her white front paws. Acaciashade sighed. She did not really like company and other cats. Acaciashade was happy that she was sitting alone. Acaciashade did not mind being lonely, in fact she liked it. The brown and white tabby thought that the other cats were either annoying or bossy or maybe a bit of both.
Acaciashade eyes fixed on another cat trotting towards her. Oh great I hope he or she does not scent ShadowClan on me. She thought. Her amber eyes narrowed and the brown and white tabby turned away not wanting to greet the cat. Acaciashade bared her teeth in a snarl and then finally spoke. "Leave me alone!" The brown and white tabby spat angrily hoping that she will scare the cat away.

Not so pleasant day
Tawnyberry was on her way back from a particularly bad trip trying to collect herbs. She'd harvested almost everything earlier in the past seasons, and now, she couldn't find ANYTHING! The browning stalks had budded no fresh leaves, and few of the roots she'd left intact had grown at all. It put a slight damper on her otherwise dapper mood, the she-cat's whiskers a droopin' and her paws shuffling as she made her way into camp.
She'd paused in the middle of the hollow, turning slowly. There was always somebody needin' somethin', or so Tawnyberry liked to think. Maybe she could drag someone for a checkup, or- hey!
Pale eyes lit upon the shape of a newcomer, a familiar warrior returning from a patrol. Tawnyberry remembered Acaciashade distinctly, the other molly a bit of a prickly one- but nothing the energetic medicine cat couldn't handle.
Bouncing over, she flashed Acaciashade a grin- tail puffing up a bit at the other's greeting, though Tawnyberry didn't seem too deterred. "Don't act like that!" She tutted in a chiding tone, pausing just a few tail-lengths in front of the she-cat. Her whiskers quivered, ears perked forward and nose twitching when she caught the familiar scent of ShadowClan clinging to the other's pelt. She'd been hunting near the border, probably- Tawny couldn't smell any other cat-scents, so... she assumed the warrior had been alone.
"You caught nothing hunting, huh? Oh well. Hey! Did you see any flowers? Uh, tall ones, with broad leaves-" She knew for a fact those weren't growing well anymore, it was more a phrase to interrupt the other cat's angry demeanor. "Did a badger getchur' tongue or pee in your kill this mornin'? What's up? Y'can tell me, yeah!"

ACACIASHADE Acaciashade's amber eyes narrowed at Tawnyberry, the medicine cat. Oh great don't stuff me with herbs. She thought. The brown and white tabby did not want to speak. She kept silent for a while and then she spoke. "No I have not seen any flowers" Acaciashade grumbled. She did not really want to go out and collect herbs. "I don't have to tell you if I don't want to" she growled. Won't she just leave me alone! The brown and white tabby thought. Acaciashade sighed. She won't leave me alone until I have told her. "Fine I'll tell you" Sh grunted. "You know the territory that we out to those filthy ShadowClanners. I went hunting there and I caught a rabbit. But I forced to leave it there. Acaciashade explained. "Are you happy now that I've told you what's wrong." The brown and white tabby kept quiet before speaking once more "What do you want anyway. Why have you come to bother me" Acaciashade questioned eyes narrowing and tail twitching. Did she want to stuff her with bitter tasting herbs or take her out on a boring herb hunt. The brown and white tabby kept quiet again waiting for Tawnyberry to speak.

Not so pleasant day
She listened attentively, slender, speckled ears flicked forward and big ol' pale eyes fixed on the younger, stockier molly. Her pale tongue tsked in sympathy, long whiskers drooping and she let out a heavy sigh, shaking her rounded head. "What a shame! Them big bullies don't know whenta' admit the land is ours, huh?" She mewed, rolling her green eyes before fixing the she-cat with a curious gaze.
"Why can't I bother you? Is there a rule sayin' I can't? 'Cause as your medicine cat, and clanmate, I think I got every right to talk with you all I want!" She mewed matter-o-factly, flashing the other a bright, cheerful trill, the sound like a lil' chime in the otherwise pure and calm air. "I think the question is, why don'tcha like to be bothered? Don't think I've seen many clanmates that don't like a good botherin' now and then." What a silly warrior, this one was!
"Anyway, do'ya wanna come get some food? Som'on caught a couple lil bunnies earlier, they offered me one 'n I ain't eaten it yet. You can come share with me, yeah? C'mon!"
Flicking her tail for the other to follow, she turned and took a couple bouncing steps towards the edge of the hollow, where her to-be dinner lay in wait. After a few steps, the tortie peered over her shoulder, eagerly waiting to see if the tabby she-cat would come follow her. The bunny lay in a patch of crispy heather, the plants worn down and padded so one could lay comfortably. Even here, she knew if she took a deep breath, that delicious smell would be in the air.

ACACIASHADE Acaciashade listened as the medicine cat spoke to her. She felt sorry for me! No one ever does that! The brown and white tabby thought silently. Oh great she's going to talk forever. Acaciashade sighed and just narrowed her eyes. The medicine cat just would not leave her in peace. Her ears pricked up when Tawnyberry said the word food. She's offering food! The brown and white tabby belly grumbled. Should I accept the offer?
Acaciashade was too hungry to argue that she could catch one for herself later. The scent of the bunny was so tempting and fresh. Acacia had not had a good meal in days. So the brown and white tabby she-cat trotted over to where Tawnyberry had layed down. Her Amber eyes fixed on the rabbit. Her mouth almost watered. "Thank you" she murmered politely. Acaciashade was in no mood now to get grouchy. She just waited for the medicine cat to take a bit of the plump and fresh rabbit. But ten she thought. Why would she offer me a meal. All I've done is argue and be grouchy. I don't really derserve it. She thought. Acaciashade sighed. Should I have refused to accept the offer or no?

[ Not so pleasant day
Tawnyberry hid a smug grin, secretly pleased with herself as Acaciashade joined her. She carefully kneaded the prickly heather down, ensuring the patch was as comfy and sun-warmed- as prepared as possible. She wasn't about to get poked and pricked, no no!
Confident her patch was ready, she let her legs fold under her and roughly fell to her belly next to the other cat. Her slick fur was mussed along her legs and belly, but the pale tortie paid no mind as she simply drew all four paws under her body- tucking them under her chest and belly with particular care, so they were perfectly warmed and folded in, fitting like little pieces in a puzzle: Perfectly.
"Of course!" She chirped enthusiastically at the other's thank you, stretching to tug a flap of skin and fur from the rabbit's haunch before gnawing off a bite. Tawny unceremoniously gulped it down before giving the other a twitch of her whiskers. "What kinda' medicine cat would I be if I didn't share tongues with the clan, huh? An old one, probably. All old, and saggy, and crabby. Probably with silver fur and a voice that creaks like those weird trees in RiverClan- y'know? The branches that whine when it's windy, like they're gonna break. I'd sound like that, and look terrible. I'd probably just be Cuckoopoppy, honestly. Have you seen him? He's nuts. Nutter then a squirrel in leaf-fall, y'know?"
Tawnyberry paused only to take a breath, though she then realized she had nothing else to add. She wasn't even entirely sure of the original subject. Old.. cats? Shar- right! Sharing tongues! As she remembered she leaned to lick a stray cowlick of fur flat on Acaciashade's neck, her whiskers twitching. It was only proper, after all, to groom one's clanmates while sharing news.
"So! Whats new? What's flying? See anything neat besides- oh! What was ShadowClan like, huh? Was it that big ol' warrior with the stripes and the big paws and the river-deep voice? Or uh, or the lil stripy apprentice? Or the big mean ol' black 'n white warrior? Huh? Any of those? Did'ja know 'em?"

ACACIASHADE Acaciashade bent her head to tear of a small piece of the rabbit's hunch before sitting up to gulp the juicy meat down. It tasted so good and fresh. She felt the medicine cat's tongue grooming the fur on her neck. The brown and white tabby did not normally share tongues with anyone. Acaciashade's tail twitched when Tawnyberry asked about the ShadowClan warrior. "It was none of those cats. He was a brown tom-cat. At first he just asked me who I was, but I think he was being a bit too friendly" The brown and white tabby muttered. "And then he said that if I took the rabbit I had caught, it would b prey stealing. I knew that so I dropped the rabbit and ran before anyone could punish me" Acaciashade explained. "That territory should belong to WindClan. Those crow-food eaters have no right to be there" The brown and white tabby hissed teeth bared in a snarl. Acaciashade looked at Tawnyberry. "Now your going to tell all this to Applestar aren't you?" The brown and white tabby growled, narrowing her eyes at the medicine cat. She thought about all the punishments she would get if Tawnyberry told on her. She just hoped that the medicine cat would keep her little secret MADE BY VEL OF GS

Not so pleasant day
Tawnyberry listened attentively as the other explained, whiskers twitching with sympathy for the poor, frazzled cat beside her. How terrible! Why, if she ever got her claws on them there ShadowClanners, she'd give 'em a good run for their prey! That she would! .... or at least, Tawnyberry liked to think so!
"It aint prey-stealin' if the moor is rightfully ours!" She declared with a shake of her head, whiskers giving a small quiver, "They aint got none rights over it! I say we oughta' hunt all the rabbits outta' there so they got nothin'!"
Tough words from the pale cat, but she was all bravado- her chest puffed out and head arched back in the most daring little pose. Her chin even jutted out a little bit, a wide, foolhardy grin crossing her features. Boy, if she were a warrior, Tawnyberry would bet she could be the fiercest warrior in all the clans. She'd send them warriors runnin', yes she would!
Tawnyberry paused at the question about Applestar, looking at the other with a quizzical glare. Her head tilted, ears flicking back and eyes widening curiously. "Why shouldn't I? I don't think you did nothin' wrong, 'specially since you gave the rabbit back! That was super nice, actually, like- you hunted for them by accident! I think he'd be pretty happy you didn't start a fight or get anyone hurt or nothin'. What'ya think?"
