Dappledheart padded into the warrior's den. She had just had her naming ceremony, and was excited and exhausted at the same time."Frostfall, Echoflight?" she hissed. Nobody answered. Warily, she poked her head out of the den. Some moss was nearby. She picked it up in her mouth and made a nest quickly. She laid down and tucked her paws under her chest, trying to sleep. But, she couldn't. She was too excited to just lay around. She bounced to her feet, as fast as a rabbit. Paw steps thundered at the entrance, and she peered through. "Who's there?" she meowed.

Shadyfoot thundered into the den, carelessly forgetting about the sleeping cats. She heard a voice and froze. Mouse-dung! I woke up some cat. I hope they're not angry. What if it's a senior warrior? They'll kill me if I wake them up! She faced the cat with a lowered head, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to wake you up, please forgive me!" She meowed frantically as she lowered her voice, not wanting to wake the others. What would they do to her now!

Echoflight's gray-teal eyes snaspped open and she sprang to her feet--silently, for once.
"Huh? Whoozere?"
As her eyes grew more accustomed to the dim light, she registered several sleeping forms--and one very familiar.
"Dappledpaw?" she whispered hoarsely. "That you?"
She blinked a couple more times. The second standing cat was more difficult to notice, only because of her long, dark pelt, but her bright blue eyes gave her away. "Shadyfoot. Hi," Echoflight whispered.
She glanced back to her old tortoiseshell friend. "Except you must not be Dappledpaw anymore," she reasoned. "You're a warrior! I can't believe I missed your ceremony, I don't even know your new name--what is it?"

"Oh, Shadyfoot, is it?" Dappledheart asked looking at the black she-cat. "It's okay." She glanced at Echoflight. "My new name is Dappledheart." she purred. "What are you guys doing?" she questioned, all drowsiness forgotten.

Shadyfoot quickly recovers, slightly embarrassed, but the others didn't seem to notice and diverted the subject elsewhere. "Nothing much..." she answered, with a slight shrug, not really knowing what to reply.

The voice of cats reached Cheetahfur's ears. The senior warrior twitched her nose and grunted. She opened her eyes and glared at the cats in front of her.
"Ugh. Can't this old cat get any sleep?" she stretched, shaking the tension of her muscled shoulders. Scars betrayed seasons of experience. She sat up. Her orange eyes no longer held the young playful glint, but now a deep, wise gaze. She twitched her scarred ears. She turned her head and saw her reflection in a puddle.
"Not so young anymore." She muttered.

Echoflight shrugged, same as Shadyfoot. "Existing?" she said as if it were a question, then giggled at her own chronic silliness. "Same--nothing really. It's been kinda boring..."
She trailed off as a familiar voice, though more disgruntled than she remembered it, reached her ears. She spun to face her old mentor, joy in her eyes. "Old?" she teased. "Please. You're a spring chicken."
As Cheetahfur's face came more into light, Echoflight frowned. Had those scars always been there? And her eyes weren't the same as when she'd caught a live rabbit and then set it free for her and Frostfall to chase. But it was still Cheetahfur, under all that disguise, and she leaned forwards to touch noses with her.
"I haven't seen you in forever!" she exclaimed--maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but still. "I was wondering where you went!"

"Just hanging around camp." She meowed gruffly. She sat up and licked her paws.

Echoflight recoiled a bit at her former mentor's gruff tone. "Oh. I mean--okay. I just... Well, it's nice to see you again!" she forced cheerfully.
She glanced over to Shadyfoot and Dappledheart. "Do you guys know Cheetahfur?" she asked, deliberately smiling.

Shadyfoot nodded politely towards Cheetahfur before speaking. "Well I've never actually met her until now, but I've seen her around. She's Hawkspirit's mate, yes?" Shadyfoot added. "Hawkspirit used to be my mentor."

Cheetahfur finally stood up, her pelt shining in the sunlight. Her eyes may have dulled, but her pelt never lost it's cheetah-pelt glint.
"Sorry." She muttered quietly to Echoflight, seeing her recoil.
She nodded to Shadyfoot.
"Nice to meet you. Hawkspirit's told me about you." she stretched slightly, her lean figure showing through her fur.

"It's fine," she said, relieved. She backed up as Shadyfoot entered the conversation.
(pfffft. lazy)

"Sorry if we woke you Cheetahfur." Dappledheart purred. She rolled over in her nest. "I'm not tierd anymore. Now I'm bored."

"That's alright." she meowed to the younger warrior. "I'm just trying to get enough sleep before Drought steals me."
"So, what's been going on?" her eyes flashed with the same mischief as before.
"Has any of you gotten a mate? Whattabout a crush?"

Shadyfoot blushed at the thought of it, but shook her head. "No."
