Onyxpelt stood alone in the early hours of the day. he had just awoken and carefully stepped over the bodies of his sleeping clanmates to make sure he didn't wake anybody up. He was unsure that he had gone unnoticed as he was pretty sure he had trodden on something soft, hopefully not a cat's tail. Making his way over the the freshkill pile he took the first thing he saw, a small mouse, and took it to the cover of a bush. Semi-hidden he waited for any cat to come out of their den.

Brindlestorm had been on watch that night at the top of the ravine the entirety of Skyclan resided in, and had just come down for some morning food when her fellow deputy Onyxpelt had emerged and picked his way across the small clearing that covered the bottom of the camp. She glanced at the cave he had come from, curious if anyone would follow the tom out, and wasn't surprised to hear faint snores continue from the mouth of the stone den, the collective warmth of the cats within radiating from the opening. She looked at her awakened clanmate, and padded silently over, jumping down off of the final ledge to land with rough pads next to the dark colored tom. The head deputy had refused the actual leadership once again this morning, but still remained the temporary head of the clan, until someone fit for the job and not as meek as she was, was found and chosen. She glanced at the tom again, curiosity in her eyes. "Rough night?" she asked nonchalantly, picking out a stray mouse from the side of the pile as she trailed her eyes away from her clanmate to focus on her meal. However, she kept an ear trained on him to let him know her attention wasn't entirely elsewhere.

Onyxpelt was happy to see a cat, he respected Brindlestorm as she had been deputy for much longer than he had. He stood up for where he was eating, remembered that he was under a bush and promptly smacked his head on a small branch. "Ouch." Emerging from out under he makes a face and says "Not so much a 'rough night'" Pausing for a moment he says "More like an early morning. Not my favorite thing."
Noticing her glance towards the den he sighs "I hope I didn't wake anybody up. I stepped of a fuzzy thing, I hope it was just some moss." Turning his head back to her he asks "How was your night? Cold and stiff up on the rock? It can get pretty bad up there."

The shecat chuckled at his antics, and nodded. "They aren't always fun, early mornings. Never been a fan of them myself. Usually, if I have to wake up early, I just don't sleep at all." She shrugged slightly, taking another swift bite of the small prey and rolling her stiff shoulders, and looked inside the warm den again, this time some longing in her yellowed green gaze. "I doubt you did any harm, even if you did tread on a tail. The rest of the clan seems to be dead to the world, what they don't know can't hurt them." She mused in an amused tone, before shifting her gaze back to him at his new inquiry on how her night had been. Cold and stiff, just like he mentioned.
"You guessed it. But, then again, it's usually cold and stiff on the top of the camp through the night, since the dang ravine runs wind through it like a whistle. Nothing unusual though, so I'm okay."

| "No kidding, My least favorite time of day." Taking in what she said he shakes his head "How do you manage to stay up? I tried once and during dawn patrol I leaned against a tree for a moment and let until sharing tongues!"
"Ugh, I could only imagine what it would be like on watch when there's an attack. We really should have a better way of sounding an alarm." Tearing at the ground he pauses to think for a moment. "What if we have something we hit to make a loud noise rather then risking out voices..." Lowering his head to take a bite of his prey he asks "What do you think of the clan right now? And how come you don't want to be leader?"

Brindlestorm
And they say that i'm lost
The shecat nodded again, finishing her prey and standing to stretch out her stiffened muscles along her shoulders. Her ears flicked again at his first question, and another laugh escaped her form. "I'm not entirely sure. Guess it's just from doing it a bunch, I'm not bothered by all nighters anymore." She responded, shrugging again.She contemplated the idea of a loud noise to alert the clan of danger, and nodded her head thoughfully. "There are some large boulders farther up the ravine that would sound echos up the camp if dropped into the ravine. Maybe we can find a way to knock them down quickly and use them as alarms." she mused, before flicking her eyes away. Leadership... just the thought made her shutter. She loved being the deputy, and she knew she was, in a way, failing her clan by not taking the leadership, but she couldn't.... handle that pressure right now. Not after just losing her mother to greencough, and finding out her brother abandoned the clan to join the gang in the distant city."I guess I'm just not ready to. And I figured someone else would be correct for the job. not me.." She said, offering him a weak smile, before perking up, and looking at the raising sun. "Anyways, you up for a hunt? It's just light, and songbirds are usually low enough to snag from the trees around camp at this time." she chirped, standing and flexing her long, sharp claws against the stone and tufts of grass underpaw.

| "Not bothered by all-nighters? You must have a claw loose. Sleep is there for a reason. You think Soulclan think it's a good idea to ignore that? Or maybe I'm just crazy" Shrugging he listens to her talk about boulders.
Knocking down the boulders does seem like a good idea. The only problem would be setting them up again..." Using the pause in conversation, Onyx bends down and snags a third bite of his prey.
"Who else would be right for it? Me? I just became deputy a few moons ago, so that's a no. And it HAS to be a deputy. Our only REAL option is you. And you would do fine." Looking her right in the eyes he says "Brindlestar has a nice ring, doesn't it?"
Nodding his head he gulps down the last bits of prey. "Sure thing. Where do you want to go? If we're hunting songbirds we should go a little deeper into the forest where the hunters don't normally go. Birds are dumb but they might have figured out it's not safe."
(Notes) Sorry, I was not really feeling like RP for a few days. I'm back now though!

Brindlestorm
And they say that i'm lost
She shivered slightly, glad to be off the subject at least for now. Her heart yearned for someone more confident than her to step forward and take the place of leadership, because she knew she'd crack under the pressure. She had already been leading the ragtag clan for a while now, and she wanted to know what it was like to serve under another before she took the name Brindlestar... She didn't think it was too much to ask, but she supposed that to others it could be considered as a treason of sorts to not take the leadership with dignity and appreciation."Lets drop it for now. Give it a bit of time, maybe I just need some time..." She murmured softly, before flicking her ears at the suggestion of moving farther among the trees."Good point, although I doubt birds can be that smart, I like the idea. Do you have anywhere specific in mind?" Her tone was even and smooth, desperately hiding the struggle it was to not suffocate on her own anxiety over taking the 'star' name and stepping up for her clan. But she supposed a young tom like Onyxpelt wouldn't understand the anxiety she held, he hadn't seen some of the horrors she'd seen Skystar have to deal with and decide on. She didn't have the courage, let alone the resolve, to do that without aiding another leader through it first.

| Onyxpelt mummers "You ask for time, the one thing we can't have. If only we had enough to spare."
Pausing to consider ( OOC ACK I DON'T KNOW THE REGIONS) Onyxpelt says "How about that tree group just past the Barren Tree?" (OOC Making things up now) Bringing himself fully to his feet Onyx chuckles as he notices how much smaller his is than her. He nearly has to look up to meet her eye to eye.
Onyxpelt's eyes dart away as he says "Um, you might not know this but I am pretty bad hunter. I think a mouse would do more damage to a crow or Rabbit than I could."Looking at his paws he awkwardly bats at the ground "I barely passed to become an apprentice. Sometimes I think they only passed me because they didn't know what to do if someone failed..." He lets his sentance drift off into thought of pointless snipppets of regret.
(Notes) Sorry for the short post (Should I ask why you responded at 3 in the morning?)

Brindlestorm
And they say that i'm lost
The older shecat remained silent at her partner's remark about the lack of time, fully aware of the fact that time was indeed one of the many things they didn't have in the clan at the moment. She let out a heavy sigh, before nodding at his later statement about trying near the Barren Tree. The scorched tree was a major landmark at the edge of the large pine forest the clan mainly used for hunting, and rarely visited, so she was sure they'd stumble upon something this early in the morning, when prey wasn't as awake and quick as they were mid-day.She twitched her ear at his statement about his hunting, and shook her head, a soft smile on her face. "I doubt it, Onyxpelt. You're a natural leader, and take to the deputy position very well. Your instincts are valuable, and your tactics and thoughts are well-spoken and articulated for the rest of us to understand. Just because you're not the best at hunting, doesn't mean you're not fit to be a warrior, or a deputy for that matter. Skystar wouldn't have appointed you if he thought any different than I. Besides, I'm mouse-dung at battle half the time, and the other half of the time I'm only halfway decent and barely get a good swipe in. And yet here I am, almost a senior warrior, and head deputy of the clan. Have faith in your abilities, I know the rest of us do." She flicked her ears and smiled at him warmly, before turning her gaze the the huge, pale tree in the distance, the pine's bark having paled due to the extensive exposure to the sun's rays. She nodded to the tree, and grinned at him, eyes glinting. "We have prey to catch. Lets go!"

| Onyxpelt makes a face but mutters "Thank you. But evenif I'm as good of a leader as you say I am, I'm inexperianced. I've seen a single cat die. I've never lead a patrol into battle, i've never seen the horrors of green, white, or blackcough. You on the other hand have experiance, your wisdom could be priceless compared to battle strategy." He spat out the last two words like they were poision.
Pausing to listen to what she had to say he nods, feeling the tone of her voice rub off on him. In a few moments he had gone from feeling angry to feeling upbeat and ready to hunt, poor as he was at it.
Nodding he says "Alright let's do this!" And not pausing to wait for her he says "Last one out of camp is a butterfly!" (Notes) Insomnia? That's rough

Brindlestorm
And they say that i'm lost
Brindlestorm giggled, shaking her head. "Dang, Onyxpelt, you make me sound old. I don't have nearly the abilities or experience to lead, but hopefully, if I can't, someone will come who can." She said wistfully, taking off hot on his heels."That is one thing I'm fairly confident in, and that's my hunting skills! You're doomed to be a butterfly!" She teased joyously, laughing and pushing her calico legs to pump faster over the slightly damp green grass at the top of the rocky camp, her semi-long fur being blasted back into the wind around her with the speed she pushed herself to go at. She grinned, relishing in the almost Windclan-esk speeds she was producing, and had to throw on the full brakes to not fly face first into the white tree that was their destination. Panting softly, she scented for prey, eager to win their friendly competition.

| Onyxpelt flicks his ear in a movement resembling a shrug. "You ay be a good hunter, but are you faster than me?" He asks. Without a look he bolts (See what I did there?) away and heads for the Barren Tree.
Knowing exactly where he was at all times, -Onyxpelt had memorized the scent markers, and all boundries. Even making a few of his own for battle tactics- he kicks his hind-paws into the soft ground and paddles forward with his front paws he performs a powerslide-esqe movement an dashes directly to the left. Cutting through brambles he takes a short cut to the Tree. Just as he is about to reach it he spots a brown flash of hur skid to a halt, almost crashing headlong into the tree.
Not wanting to waste anymore energy he takes a breath and walks towards the Barren Tree. "Well, I suppose I am the butterfly today." Panting he waits for his heartbeat to go down before scenting the air for prey. (Notes) Ugh, 2nd try...

Brindlestorm
And they say that i'm lost
The calico heaved in a breath, her eyes hazing over from the run and how much it took out of her. She leaned on the pale tree, waving her paw weakly and chuckling. "You go ahead and hunt, I just need a breather real fast." She gasped out, heaving another deep breath into her lungs as she allowed her sharpened green eyes to scan the nearby treeline for any signs of smaller movement. She looked forwards to these little hunts, with any of her clanmates really. She valued them and held them to a standard where they let her get to know the other better. They improved her relations within camp, and gave her a higher sway in bigger decisions since the leadership duties were spread among the deputies, neither wanting to step up to take the name.She sighed, looking to the sky and silently praying for someone to come who could successfully lead Skyclan to become a great clan. She wasn't that cat yet, she was still irresponsible, and panicked when she was given heavy tasks for the clan, hoping that she didn't make any mistakes. She'd only been a deputy a few moons when Onyxpelt was appointed, and Skystar (Died/disappeared/whatever the new leader chooses) soon after adding the younger tom to the ranks, the white tom with the kind, teasing blue eyes that she'd come to love. She missed the white tom painfully so, and the fact that they'd kept their relationship a secret made her have to bite her lip painfully hard to fight back the wave of emotion crashing over her ears. She looked at Onyxpelt and smiled softly, his optimism and lovely personality would make him a glorious leader someday... She knew it. Maybe she'd let him have the head deputy position, or just step down altogether... She wasn't fit for this, she wasn't good enough, and she didn't know why others believed she was.
She pushed herself from the tree, and padded softly to a hunting spot, carefully guarding her expression around her companion to make sure he knew nothing of her inner troubles. Scenting nearby, she spotted a mouse, and proceeded to stalk forward after it, balancing on all four legs like she was taught all those moons ago.

| Onyxpelt nods, after all it was a normal request. As long as she didn't sneek off or anything like that. Thinking he got the scent of a bird.
Following the smell he notices that it's stale. With a heavy sigh he turns and comes back the way he came, following the path of broken twigs and trodden on leaves. wow, if it had been a real bird it would have heard me from miles away he thinks to himself.
(, I just thought of something) Onyx finds the Barren Tree and does not see Brindlestorm looking around he still can't see her. As he reaches the tree he spots her in a hunters crouch. Running over he says, reather loudly "Did you smell something?" (Notes) *Sniffles* Why... why so sad?
