@hate Belladonna's quest for power had hit a bit of a slump. Winter had not yet returned to her with any information, and 'Pain' had disappeared before she'd even gotten a chance to challenge his leadership. Without a real, decisive battle that ended with Bella as the winner, the cats of DeathClan had no reason to accept her as the next leader.
In an attempt to quell her frustrations, Belladonna decided to visit the meadow, which was a refreshing change of scene from DeathClan's murky lands. New-leaf had fully taken over, meaning hunting was easier than ever and she was able to appreciate the budding life around her.
Having just eaten mouse, Bella opened her mouth and tasted the air, noting a new cat scent. New cats seemed to be springing up like weeds nowadays, what with all the odd newcomers lately. "You could at least introduce yourself." She called, her gaze flitting around casually.

Harley was out exploring territories other than the Twoleg places, curious what other sights she'd come across.
There was a gorgeous area she found, complete with an abundance of various flowers and delicious prey scents.
Laughing, Harley rolled around the ground, stopping to stare up at the soft, baby blue sky and fluffy clouds that dotted it. A cool breeze ruffled her fur, accompanied by the sweet floral scents. It also carried a voice; snapping Harley out of her daze.
"Hello?" Harley answered, standing up to have her gaze meet that of another she-cat. "Oh, hello!" She said again, "Names Harley, nice to meet ya." She meowed, a little too loudly. "Weather sure is nice, ain't it?"

Belladonna dipped her head, looking at the other she-cat curiously, the tip of her tail slowly flicking back and forth. It was nice to see that someone else appreciated the beauty of this place, though it was a bit odd how open about it Harley was being.
"Well then, Harley, my name's Belladonna." She greeted, her words sounding a bit clipped as she almost introduced herself with her old name out of habit.
Scenting the air again, Bella noted that this cat wasn't of DeathClan, making her immensely less useful, but still interesting enough.
"Uhm, yes. It's nice." The tabby she-cat mewed, somewhat awkwardly. Harley didn't give off the vibe of a cat who would roll around in the grass, and it set Belladonna on edge.

"Isn't it, Belladonna?" Harley said, once more referring to the weather. "You from around here?" She asked, shaking the dust off her pelt.

"Sort of," Belladonna shrugged, deciding there was no harm in talking about her past, since she didn't consider it to be a sensitive subject. "I was born in IceClan, but that isn't my home anymore." Her eyes glinted, masking storms of swirling emotion.

"IceClan." She repeated, awkwardly trying it out on her tongue. "Sounds... Chilly!" She exclaimed, raising her eyebrows and smiling wide, tilting her head to the side.
Out of the corner of her eye, Harley spotted a chunky grey rabbit sneaking about. She looked straight at it, widening her eyes, and crouching low and whispering, "Shhh," towards Belladonna.
Harley waited until the rabbit turned just the right way... and snap! The rabbits neck was broken and it was clamped tightly in her jaws in a flash. She looked back towards Belladonna, giving her something like a small curtsy.

"It probably was. I don't really remember." Bella replied with a shrug, the tip of her tail brushing against the ground.
She gladly obliged to Harley's request, falling silent and watching the she-cat with mild interest as she caught and killed the plump rabbit. Feeling somewhat amused by Harley's odd mannerisms, Bella allowed herself to show a bit of emotions. "Nice catch." She complimented quietly.

"Thanks. Want some? I don't really care for Rabbits." She answered, dropping it to the floor and spitting out it's fur.
((Short short sorry))

Bella was rather suspicious of the offer and tempted to decline, however she absolutely hated to waste prey. "Uhm, thank you." The tabby she-cat mewed, eyeing Harley warily as she stepped forward, taking a bite from the rabbit.

"Cats who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like." She said, eyeing Belladonna once more, wondering if the cat would understand her insanity.
"Anyway, what's the problem with the forest clans? They're crazy and stingy, can't we all just get along?"

"That's true." Belladonna agreed between bites, though she couldn't help but wonder what the point of saying so was.
She thought back to the few moons she spent in IceClan that she could actually remember, and Bella couldn't remember anything besides the pointless, petty drama going on. "Probably not. All those cats care about is themselves, that's why I left."

"Drama," she said, "One of life's true delights.
"Wanna share the details?"

Belladonna hesitated, struggling to recall any specific details from her time in IceClan. "Where do you want me to start?" She really only remembered things about her personal life, which she wasn't too sure she should share with Harley.

"Wherever you want," Harley said testily, narrowing her eyes. Sure, she wouldn't give out her life-history either, especially not to an awkward cat like Belladonna. But she seemed promising, and she wanted to know a little bit about her, for maybe something in return.
((Lol that made no sense okAy))

"Oh, okay." Belladonna drew in a deep breath before sighing. She got a headache if she tried to think about her past for too long, but it would probably be alright if she stuck to things from after her accident. "Well, I was an IceClan warrior of the name.. Roselight. There was this tom, uhm.. I can't really recall his name."
