Burned out from a joy ride ❧ SkyClan patrol


The cool approach of dusk reached Florabreeze as she walked through the pines towards the border, the brief gusts of wind carried some bite to it. The sun hadn't dimmed yet, that blazing orange light keeping enough heat for it to be pleasant overall. "We're not going home yet Jellypaw, so when we reach the border you have to stay on SkyClan's side, okay?" She had no doubt that her apprentice remembered that. The time she ran off ahead still rings clear in her head, so it felt fitting to remind her despite the confidence in the apprentices memory. She doubted that her sister needed the reminder but she looks to Sfogliatella anyways, to make sure that she also understood.

Oakrumble and Hawkspine weren't far behind her, she kept a slow gait so that there was an easy going pace set. It would do everyone good to be alert anyways "have either of you ever been to Twolegplace before?" Surely there was no harm in idle conversation, not while there was still a short distance to the border. When that border was in sight she made a note to hold herself back from further commentary. Jaws shifting as she intakes the air around her, there didn't seem to be any new scent of rogue or predators. Not from what she could tell anyways.

As the border came closer there was a strange scent, one that was distinctly Twolegplace, it has this tangy, acidic edge to it. A smell that she had grown accustomed to and yet her muzzle still scrunches in disgust out of reflex. Her head peers around shrubbery with interest, a bright red sphere with black shapes rests on their side of the border. The lack of rumbling footsteps or garbled chatter indicated that no Twolegs were around to fetch it. "Huh, didn't think one of these would find their way out here" she mumbled with interest, she often saw it paired with Twolegkits so it was a novelty to see one by itself.

-ˋˏ A tight-lipped smile has been glued upon Oakrumble's harsh features for a large portion of the patrol as she watches Florabreeze interact with her apprentice and sister. Oakrumble enjoys seeing the way she lightly informs Jellypaw to not stray far, does not hold the mistake she'd made against the apprentice. Oakrumble is still alert despite her observations of Florabreeze's mentoring methods, her partial ears are straight as pins and swirl at each sound no matter how unthreatening it sounds. The patrol coincidentally walks along the very stretch Oakrumble does when she departs from the territory.

"No, not recently," Oakrumble murmurs in reply to Florabreeze's question. A brilliant liar and equally brilliant surpressant of her feelings, it was easy for the torbie to utter those words. "Twas where I lived as a youth."

The pad along the border for several more stretches before they arrive at the strange Twoleg object with a stench that furrows Oakrumble's nose bridge. She recognizes the object, vaguely and meanders closer without any anxiety. The torbie stops infront of it and puts a paw upon the eyesore of a thing and puts her weight on it, shoving it backwards towards the rest of the patrol. "We oughta push it somewhere further from a border, wouldn't want a Twoleg returning for it... not on our territory!"
