[shadow=red,left,300]Miss Mary mack, mack, mack
All dressed in black, black, black
She has a knife, knife, knife
Stuck in her back, back, back
She can not breath, breath, breath
She can not cry, cry, cry
Thats why she begs, begs, begs
She begs to die, die, die... [/shadow]
Dittanysong sat in the middle of a street, something unfamiliar to the Clan warrior. She watched as a very very very pretty she-cat nursed her kits. A tom walked over, an old ugly tom with a sadistic glint in his eye. The tom picked up one of the smaller kits and threw it across to the other side of the street, blood ran from his mouth and soon wherever he touched blood seemed to seep out of the ground.
Similar to a Nursery Story of darkness that kept kits from wanting to be lazy kittypets (not that anybody ever wanted to be one of those cats--really) this dream was both terrifying and somehow familiar to her. She felt a connection with the Queen that was more of a thing you felt when you looked at yourself in a pool of water and saw a deformed, weird you. Dittanysong felt the name of this cat pressed against her tongue, so hard to spit out like peanut-butter to the roof of your mouth. Scratch that, this was something that scared Dittanysong; she felt her mind try to block the Peanut Butter like an Arachibutyrophobic person would.
This wasnt good, that cat would die and so woul her kits! Dittanysong felt herself forget the other kit that had been tossed away to the other side of the street... she had to help!
Waking up strartled and in a familiar EclipseClan camp, Dittany relaxed immediatly. Only a dream, only a bad bad bad dream. She breathed out slowly. In, out, in out... so simple--that was breathing. No teror in sucking in something you didnt want. So very natural it made Dittanysong appreciate the complex ways of a Warriors life. Yeah, breathing was boring but it was good sometimes in helping you keep your cool. It wasnt something filled with shadows and newness, Dittanysong decided breathing was one of her top ten favorite things to do.
I wonder if StarClan cats breath? |

Gillwing
Gillwing's eyes flicked open as he heard the moss near him rustle. He sat up and looked at the she-cat, her flank rising up and down quickly. He stepped delicately over to her, and nodded. "Hey, why don't you go outside? Then you'll feel better, I promise." He led the way outside and sat down. "I'm Gillwing, by the way. The clan's so big, I don't know everyone here." He grinned, before continuing. "Are you okay?" He asked her.[/color]

Dittanysong pursed her lips delicatly, "Thank you--how did you know I was well... uncomfortable," she used, 'uncomfortable,' instead of terrified, upset, scared, and shaking. Which she was by the way, Dittanysong looked very unlike her usual calm self.
Yeah--she wasnt one to panic much, it was a trait she had developed young and it had stayed with her througout her apprenticeship and her early moons as a warrior. It gave her a drive, a power that told her to always defend her proud Clan even at the cost of her won life. Calmness would scare a cat who wasnt experienced, send a nervous cat into a panciky state and drive others insane with questions of what she was really thinking. Cats such as herself were not always good mentors to curious cats for they were patient and slow. Dittanysong could only be defined as Dittanysong but within her name there was very much of Calm, Cool, and Stable.
Thank StarClan somebody was there to keep me from going insane and dying in my sleep! sje thought crazily. Okay, make that really really really good! Forgetting that he had just asked for her name she breathed in and out then looked at Gillwing. He had incredible lemon-yellow eyes that sent shivers down her spine, they counter-effected her dark blue eyes. Like herself they were the only thing a cat would notice at first glance, Dittanysong decided she liked his eyes, they showed an air of intelligence and kindness, fear and uniqueness.
[glow=pink,2,300]Getting lost in them wasnt that hard. Dittanysong had even forgotten to give the caring tom her name.[/glow] |

Gillwing
Gillwing grinned at the she-cat. " I can usually tell when someone is upset." He nodded his head. "Hey, I didn't catch your name." He looked at her with his head cocked to one side. He noticed her staring at him, and he realized she was looking into his eyes. "Do you like my eyes? I like how lemony they are." He crossed his eyes, trying to look at them himself. He started laughing and waved a paw. "Sorry, I get goofy a bit." He stuck his tongue out, resting it between his teeth as he waited for her to answer.[/color]

Her deep blue eyes narrowed to slits. It was not meant to be a rude, or offensive thing, it only made her look even more strained as she attempted to not laugh at Gillwing. He didnt look funny, it was just so selfless of him to be so kind right now when they'd just met.
Dittanysong. My name is Dittanysong and I like your eyes.
Thats what she would have said but the she-cat couldnt help but burst into a frenzied laughter, "Gill... wing... ... its... only funny.... because... its... not!" she said making no sense. To her it was funny because his attempt at humor was pitiful and so very nice. To him it must seem she was some lunatic who didnt know how to make sense. Time passed as she continued to laugh and finally she was able to keep a straight face she continued.
First explaining to him why she had laughed, Dittanysong ended a small and very boring speech with, "Im Dittanysong, and yeah--your eyes are nice they remind me of not a lemons color but the tangey taste that goes with it. So very good once you get used to it. An aquired taste that takes time and soon grows on you," she didnt know if she was talking about her hopefullyy new friend or a lemon. Both seemed very possible from her point of view.
She really hoped she didnt sound all flirty and seductive. After watching all her friends start to try finding mates and use that voice that sounded so dangerous and more like a gruff sigh then a purr Dittanysong had decided to let any relationships she may one day have come naturally, not go looking for love. |

Gillwing
Gillwing burst out laughing with her and coughed for a minute before regaining himself. "Why hello, Dittanysong, it's nice to meet you. I hope my eyes become an acquired taste for you." He stuck his tongue out again and laughed. "Well, you seem happier. My work here is done." He grinned, before speaking again. "Hey, want to go hunting, or for a walk, or something?" He asked, finally calming down.[/color]

Dittanysong's eyes flashed, she looked up at the sky. Typical EclipseClan--she couldnt really tell what time it was but was going to go with early morning. She had'nt really payed attention enough to Gillwing's words to find double-meanings in them but she could feel herself warming up to the lemon-eyes.
She smiled at him, smooth. Gillwing had just easily made it so that she would have to accept, he had asked her if she wanted to hunt or walk, making it clear this was social, and he had not askedh er to join him. If she said no, Gillwing would most likely be hurt or stay and sit with her. Very persistant.
It wasnt like she needed to be forced to go out with the comic-relief tom, she smiled at him more brightly and gushed out, "Yeah, lets go walk--maybe find some prey or something. We could make a little outing and bring some prey home," she stated, then slyly added, "If its not too late after we're done," making it his choice as to whether he'd like to spend the day with her or not. Gillwing could easily bail now and they'd probably go on not even knowing each other except for once they talked or he could accept and maybe become her friend.
[glow=pink,2,300]Im overthinking this, its just a walk through the territory.[/glow] |

Gillwing[/font]
Gillwing grinned at her as he waited for an answer. "Haha, alright. Maybe we could stay out all day. Starclan knows we have enough warriors that Eclipseclan could spare a couple for the day. Come on." He grinned still as he stood up and stretched. He had been sitting a while, and didn't realize it. He turned and meowed, "Oh yeah! Where would you like to go?" He asked her, realizing he had no idea where they should go. He hoped she would have a place to go for them, because he was confused. [/color]

Chewing on her lip, Dittanysong had no idea where. She wasnt a huge hunter, prefering to stay back and practice fighting, defend camp. Home was where her heart was. Somethign snapped in her.
"Gillwing, finally you dont have all the answers! I was feeling a bit kittish with you being so great to me and knowing what to do, I dunno, lets just go to maybe... the Serenity Falls?" she half asked half answered.
Dittanysong smiled at him and calmy got up, "Come on slow-slug! Lets go have some fun!" Dittanysong liked the falls, they were so pure and she was slightly fond of swimming... she hoped Gillwing was too. His mom wouldnt have really named him after a part of a fish if she didnt think he'd like swimming, would she? |

Gillwing
Gillwing grinned back. "Yeah, I'm not always so sure of myself. I was on a roll back there." He shook his head, before following her. "I'll show you who the slow slug is!! I'll beat you there!" He took off ahead of her, lengthening his stride before turning his head around to see if he could see her. When he turned his head back, he saw a tree looming ahead. He couldn't veer in time and careened right into it. Dazed, he stumbled away on three legs. "Coming mommy!!" He called out blurry-like, before stumbling down. He stood up and shook his head, clearing the stars. The pain left his head soon, and he was shaking his head again, before getting ready to take off again.[/color]
