Cloudedsky emerged from the den, blinking sleep out of his eyes. He yawned, then stretched in a ripple of black-and white fur. The early-morning air felt pleasantly cool on his pelt. Looking up at the overcast sky, he calculated that it was just a little before dawn. The cats going on dawn patrol would be up soon, but until then he had the camp to himself. Finding a patch of grass that was less sodden with dew than the others, Cloudedsky settled down and began to wash his fur. A bird chirped nearby. It was very quiet in the camp. That near-silence, along with the dark sky overhead, reminded Cloudedsky far too much of ...that day. It had been overcast then, too. But the quality of the silence had been different, somehow: then it had been taunt, frozen stillness, while this morning it was only a sleepy kind of quietude. With an effort, the warrior wrenched his mind away from that day. It was in his past, now. He had to keep looking forwards. He had to. Ruffled now, Cloudedsky got up from where he had been sitting and paced around the camp, waiting for the day to begin.

Aurastar blinked the sleep she didn't have out of her eyes. Her den was dark, except for the entrance that was lit by the light of the day streaming in. Aurastar stretched her paws in front of her, deciding it was probably best she got up and did something. Being the Leader of a clan was hard, though lately things have been rather peaceful. She was kind of surprised in how quiet things have been. She padded out of her den to meet the dew sodden camp. It has been very hot lately, and it was almost a break that is was slightly overcast. 'This has been a rather promising greenleaf.' She whispered silently to herself. She gazed around at her clan camp. Her thoughts were soon preoccupied by by movement from the corner of her eye.
Cloudedsky was pacing around the camp casually it seemed. Aurastar leaped from the place she was resting and met with Cloudedsky, She flicked her tail as she sat down as if signaling the bi color tom to sit next to her. "Waiting for something Cloudedsky?"

Cloudedsky heard the soft sound of paws impacting the grass behind him, as a cat leaped down.
"Waiting for something, Cloudedsky?"
The warrior looked up, recognizing his leader's voice. "Good morning, Aurastar," he meowed. "No, I'm not really waiting. Just... thinking." Belatedly, he nodded respectfully to Aurastar and padded over to sit by her side. "I'm glad that it's a little cooler today," he said after a moment. "The heat was getting fierce."

"It was indeed." Aurastar was looking on past memories staring towards the camp entrance. "Although greenleaf has promised us good prey, i just hope it doesn't eventually drought. But that shouldn't be much of worry, its a cool day." Aurastar mewed. After the fire that broke out among the clans, every new clan was rebuilding slowly. 'We will never be thought as weak!' she spoke ambitiously to herself. It has been far to quiet among the clans.
Something struck her state of mind, 'What if, something happened to the other clan members, surley by now some clan would want more territory by extending their boundaries.' Aurastar shook it out of her mind, 'Everyones fine.' She tends to find it interesting but sad; that she talks to her self mroe than anyone else in her clan.
She blinked back to reality to see Cloudedsky still next to her. She flicked her tail over Cloudedsky's ear, "Things will get better with the clan, kits will be born, apprenticed, metored then they will turn in to fine warriors." Aurastar blinked her eyes. "Our clan will be strong once again." Aurastar spilled to Cloudedsky, feeling a sort of trust between this cat.

Cloudedsky's ear tingled as Aurastar's tail-tip grazed it, and he barely managed to suppress a surprised jump.
"Things will get better with the clan, kits will be born, apprenticed, mentored, then they will turn into fine warriors."
The black-and-white warrior nodded in agreement. Such is life. Everything has to get better eventually. He blinked his tawny eyes slowly, agreeing with the leader as she added that the Clan would soon be strong once again. He felt a little bemused, wondering why Aurastar was suddenly confiding in him like this. However, at the same time he felt a slight glow of pride, glad that the MeadowClan leader viewed him as trustworthy enough to discuss this topic with him. "It is as you say, Aurastar," he meowed after a moment. "It is greenleaf, after all, and there is plenty of prey for the Clan."

Aurastar blinked,"I still can't help but feel something is wrong in the forest, but it doesn't involve the clans. " she sighed,"I just hope what ever it is all of the clans are strong, and StarClan has our tails." Aurastar looked towards the middle of the clearing, traced her eyes up to the sky, along the clouds, then back down to Cloudedsky. "I wonder what is taking the dawn patrol so long." Aurastar sat up and stretched her legs as she heard the soft wind blowing across the clearing."Hopefully when we get apprentices, you will mentor to one eh?" Aurastar flashed a smile and padded back to her den with out an answer, unaware of Cloudedsky's facial expression.

Cloudedsky listened silently as Aurastar talked. He didn't have much to say: the leader seemed to be covering it all. He did feel a slight twinge of unease as Aurastar mentioned that something was wrong. Whatever it is, I hope it stays far away from MeadowClan, he thought.
"Hopefully when we get apprentices, you will mentor to one eh?"
A small smile flashed across Cloudedsky's face. "Of, course," he meowed, "I'd be honored--" But Aurastar was already walking back to her den. The deputy shrugged, and smiled again.
