Wait for It // Open

[Patch]

Patch carelessly walked through the lands of Deathclan. Damp mud covered her paws, but she didn't mind. Mud was a casualty after snow melted, but it was an annoying one in many views. In Patch's views though she enjoyed it, she rather disliked the colors and patterns of her pelt. A little bit of brown made her feel unique.

Minutes passed and Patch was still walking strong. She passed by another cat and glanced over her shoulder to look back at them. She continued on.

((Guess what I'm trash so I kiiiind of resurrected a VERY old character from times LOOOONG ago

One of the many things on Ember's to-do list was talk to the new locals. Well, new from her rather subjective perspective. Some of them might consider themselves... Respectably experienced, but from what she's seen... None of these kids would've been around during Deathclan's glory days.

She stopped to watch curiously at a cat who didn't quite seem blind, but seemed to have come dangerously close. Possibly multiple times. She cocked a fictional eyebrow.

"You can see, right?"

[Patch]

((I mean who doesn't like resurrecting cats

Patch glanced back over her shoulder at the sound of the cat's voice. She shrugged to herself and turned around. "I haven't gone blind yet. Can't afford that out here." She replied, left ear twitching. She paused to examine the cat and her left ear twitched again.

"I haven't seen you around these parts, who might you be if I may ask?"

[Deleted]

Ember shrugged. "Oh, me? The name's Ember. I haven't been around in a long time. Decided to check out the old place since everything seems...." She looked around. "Different-y." She decided after a moment's pause.

[Patch]

Patch stared blankly. She smiled faintly and turned around. "Well nice to meet you, Ember. And yeah, Deathclan has gotten to it's fourth leader ever since I got here, it's bound to be different." She sighed. She didn't know if that was a normal thing, thinking of the original nature of the pseudo-clan.

[Deleted]

((.... Jeez, they really have gone through a lot of leaders lately, haven't they. Drought, Dove, Ash, Pain.... Holy moly.

Ember hummed in response. "Well... That makes say... Six leaders at least since I've been around. Probably more since I was away for quite a long time...." She said. "So.... How long have you been around?"

[Patch]

((That's how Deathclan rolls in anarchy.

Patch tilted her head, and stared at the cat. "Geez, I wonder how that was. I've never been taught the history of Deathclan, so I don't know the other two leaders." She shrugged. She paused to think, and sighed. "Since I was five or six moons. Honestly I've lost track of time so much that I kinda forget my own age..." She snorted.

[Deleted]

Ember tilted her head. "Mm... Don't worry, I haven't the faintest clue how old I am." She laughed. "I just know I'm very old." Then she tilted her head at Patch. "So... I don't know everything. I've been gone for a long time, and my memory isn't the greatest. But, would you like to hear what I do remember?"

[Patch]

Patch smiled slightly and nodded. "Heh, glad I'm not alone." She chuckled. Her ears twitched, "But yeah, I'd love to." Her Mother had taught her that it's good to learn something new each day, so that would be nice.

[Deleted]

Ember hummed in response. "Well... I was born near the end of Viper's reign. Viper was a Deathclan leader back from its glory days. You know, when the Deathclan name had the claws to back up its fierce reputation." She said, not caring Patch would probably be offended. "Viper led Deathclan with his two generals, Foxy and Scarlet. Though, Scarlet didn't like Viper much. Scarlet ended up defecting from Deathclan, actually. Viper's reign did end, and honestly I don't remember who came next. Mm... Name was... Anarchy or Fallacy or something. They had four generals instead, completely new ones. There might've been a sole dictator after that, but I'd left Deathclan. Needed a break. Don't remember very well."



((DC History lesson! BAsically, Kira tries to cobble together her hazy and sketchy memories revitalized slightly by ruffling through old DC threads 

[Patch]

((Still better than school

Patch's eyes lit up as Ember explained. She almost looked like a kit. The story interested her greatly and she wished she had been there. She didn't take much offense to the first part, even to Patch, Deathclan had seemed to grow soft. The ideas of generals interested her the most, maybe she should tell Pain..? No. Pain didn't need her stupid advice.

"Huh... They sound intimidating. Must be the names and ranks. I wonder if I should change my name to sound more fierce." She joked partially to herself. Her face brightened.

[Deleted]

Ember was interested by Patch's reaction to her less than stellar explanation. Honestly, she didn't remember details of her life all too well. Even the names she knew were scattered all over the place. She tended to forget cats unless she saw them on a repeated basis for a long time. Even the most intense memories of her's eventually faded into a fuzzy haze.

She hummed in response. "They were intimidating." Then she tilted her head. "Don't. Make you sound dumb." She insisted. "It's the cat behind the name that gives weight." She explained. "Those cats weren't the heads of Deathclan back in its glory days for nothing, you know." She paused for a moment. "I met both Foxy and Scarlet, you know. Viper? Nah. But the two generals.... I remember them better than most of the faded memories that plague my head."

[Patch]

Patch nodded and tilted her head. "I was joking, no worries. And I guess you're right..." She hummed, ears twitching. "I could only imagine what Deathclan was like with those cats in charge. It actually sounds like a threatening clan. Maybe that could happen again now that Pain took leadership." She rolled her eyes. Although she wasn't too keen on violence, she did think Deathclan was too passive for the name.

[Deleted]

Ember nodded. "Of course I'm right." She agreed. "Well, it was threatening. Deathclan was a true force to be reckoned with." Then she shrugged. "Maybe. Maybe not. I guess time will tell. Though, I'm reasonably sure there will be a challenge to his rule soon. A friend of mine likely is going to pose quite the threat. You don't need to worry about me. I've no interest in leading Deathclan." She reassured the she-cat whose name she didn't have. She tilted her head. "Say... You never told me your name."

[Patch]

Patch's gaze drifted off into space for a moment before she replied. "I can't wait to see that. Who's your friend? I'd probably warn them that Pain could blind them like the leader before him." She blinked and smirked at Ember's last question. "And my name's Lord Domination."

"Just kidding, it's Patch."
