Swiftwing padded out of her den and launched herself into the freezing air. Her blue wings beat furiously against the strong wind. Then she spotted a bird and flew towards it. The dragon bird was too slow, and Swiftwing killed it with a swift bite to the neck, before it could spew it's confusing sparks. She flew back, carrying the bird, and dropped it on SwiftClan's fresh-kill pile, which was pitifully small, as it was the season of leaf-bare and prey was scarce.

"Who would like to jon me on a hunting patrol?"she asked the waking katflares, who were pawing through the small fresh-kill pile.((If you have a katflare character, come on patrol with me!))

"Ok. Anyone else?"

"Come on then!" Swiftwing padded a few steps and leapt into the air.

"Let's fly over to the river. I bet we can find some prey there!"

((Be sure you create a profile for Star))
Swiftwing flew through the air, beating her powerful blue wings. The two cats spotted the river and dove sharply. They landed beside the river.

"Wanna meet back here in a few minutes after you find some prey?"

Swiftwing turned and padded off downstream. She pricked her ears and pin-pointed a scuffle vole scuffling through the reeds. She crouched down in the hunter's crouch, folded her wing's tightly to her body, and shot forward. She bit the back of the scuffle vole's neck, and it went limp.

((Sorry if I take so long to reply. I'm in the middle of another roleplay in another group!)) She spotted movement behind some clover. Some tiny mushroom people were fleeing. But since mushroom people eat flaming mushrooms, they tasted horrible, and were almost too small to consume. Ignoring the miniture people with mushrooms on their heads, she picked up the vole and carried it back upstream.

After scraping earth over the vole in the place where Star and Swiftwing had agreed to meet, Swiftwing padded back to the clover, where the little mushroom people trembled in fear. "I'm not gonna eat you," sighed Swiftwing. Swiftwing began to bite through the stems of the clover, because clover is very good on scratches, and SwiftClan needed some.

"Ready to head back? I'm going to take this fresh-kill back to camp."said Swiftwing. She padded over to her fresh-kill and gathered it, tucking the clover under her wings. She padded back into the camp, dropping the fresh-kill on the ple, which only had another vole and a fish in it. Then she took the clover to a crack in the large rock that was on the side of the camp and pushed it in.

((can you help me with names for my katflares??))

((sure. i posted a Name Help topic under Group Information))

"Do you need help with the deer?" asked Swiftwing, flying above.

Swifteing dove at the flailing deer, biting its legs with swift nips. The deer, no longer able to run, fell, leaving Star to finish it off. Swiftwing flew back to the camp.

"Attention!" The Clan leader was calling from a high tree branch. His name was Talon. He was completely green with yellow stripes and wings. "Today is Gift Day. We must go to the Human Kingdom, the Basilisk Kingdom. We must bring things to give to the king, or the human king will hunt us and take out prized pelts and wings and horns for his greedy self!"

((If someone wants to play Zeek or Talon, just make a profile!)) "I wish we could serve the Katflare Kingdom instead. Katflares could live IN the city without being hunted, and the king would make us royalty. But, no we have to serve the Basilisk King. His basiliks and griffins keep us from escaping to the northern parts. UGHHHHHHH!" said Zeek, a brown and red katflare, who had already gethered the treasures in the center of the hollow.

"Yeah. It's so unfair. The Katflare people have tried to help us, but the King's people and creatures drove them away," said Swiftwing, longing for time in the elders' stories when katflares roamed free all over Kelping, instead of being half free and half enslaved. "I envy the free katflares,"she whispered.

"It's not fair! They are bigger and stronger than us, so why the worry! They are just sitting there and waiting for us to rebel, so we can't do a thing!" A red and black Katflare said. "Kally, don't you agree with me?" "Yes Ally, I do."

((Zeek and Talon have not been taken yet. If you want to come, tell me!))
"I know!"said Swiftwing, flexing her claws.
"Your attention, PL-EASE!"said Talon," Gather the treasures and get ready to go. Swiftwing, you will come. I must also go. Zeek, you'll come."

Swiftwing padded to the pile of treasure, marveling at the beautiful gems, and sighed. Suddenly she blurted out, "WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO SERVE A KING WHO DOESN'T EVEN CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO US?! I'M GOING TO REBEL!!!"

"No! They are way bigger, if you rebel, we all die!" Ally yelled through the camp, looking around at everyone.

"I met a dragon. Her name is Sparks. She lives in a cave buy the lake. She can help us! We need to be free. Why don't we attack the king when we give him the gifts. He trusts Sparks, but she doesn't like him. She's being gaurded, like us, and if we can get her and some of her friends to help us. . ."

"But...Dragons eat us..." Kally gulped.

"Um. . .excuse me," said a voice. A small mushroom person was tugging at Swiftwing's wing feathers. "Hey! Have you been there the whole time?" asked Swiftwing. "Yes, I, um, wanted to thank you for not killing us, and um, help you rebel. I can easily fly to the katflare kingdom on a dragon bird and get the Katflare People to help you."

"Not Sparks."

"Oh. But what about her friends?"

"Um. . .she could. . .um. . .you know. . .talk to them. . .maybe. . .possibly. Tell them 'no eat' or something. Maybe they'll be nice like her. . ."

"That's a great idea! What's your name?" asked Swiftwing. "Flare," said the she-mushroom person.

Kally was still scared, along with her sister.

Ally looked around, "I know some Griffins in the outskirts who could help us. There is 10 in their clan."

"Cool! They aren't allied with the King, are they?"

"No, it's a different Kingdom in Agaesia. They hate the way Basiliks's run their 'Oh Great Kingdom'."

"Ahhh. Agaesia. 10 miles south of Kelping. We'd have to fly over the sea," said Swiftwing.

"Yes, but then the Kingdom wouldn't stop us. They think we are afraid of water because we are 'measly cats' to them. We are great swimmers." She announced.

"Yup. And out wakeflare relatives that live in the water are glad to help us. We could swim out far enough, then fly."

((Wakeflare???))

Kally nodded, "The wakeflare were very close to me because of my obssesion about the mysteries of water."

((wakeflares are the water cats. i posted it in my creature profile))

((oh ok!))

((Check out the group adds folder, i think there is a group you might like to join))

((kk))

((the warriors one? no thanx...RP?))

((yeah))
"Let's journey to the King's castle now. we have to deliver the treasure. otherwise he'll come for us. We can plan our attck afterwards," said Swiftwing.

Kally and Ally sighed in relief they didn't have to go.

Meanwhile, Swiftwing gathered the treasure in some large leaves and grabbed a bundle for herself. The other katflares picked up their bundles. "Wish us luck!" they said and took to the air.

"Bye!" Kally said.

((r u sure u dont want to join? I'm doing roleplay and posting on it right now, thanks what's taking so long for me to reply))

((no thnx...i have too many))

The katflare patrol flew through the sky for a long time. Then, out of nowhere came a griffin. "I've come to escort you to the castle. Don't give me any trouble!"

Another griffin joined them, so they were flanked on both sides.

Topaz followed Desmask.
