"You'll Never Be Unloved By Me"
Sunlight filtered through the tree tops leaving behind dappled patches of golden rays. Things seemed to be coming back to life now. Plants had started to bloom, the grass was getting greener, and everything seemed to be at peace in Skyclan. Aside from the Riverclan denial, there was no real complain about the weather or the situation. Things had been smoothed over with Orangeblossom and he couldn't be happier. She made him the most happy tomcat in the forest and he was so lucky to have her.
Ashenclaw padded through the brush of Skyclans territory towards the twolegplace. He was curious to see where Bananapaw had found that fat bird from their little competition earlier in the week. Maybe he could bring something back for Orangeblossom or maybe even Thistleback or Termitepaw. They could use a good meal after everything thats been transpiring. From the Thunderclan attack on Riverclan to the trial, things had been hectic and he just wanted to make things easier.
The blue tabby tomcat crouched low to the ground suddenly as the fences of twolegplace came into view. He stared up at the white picket wood for a moment before leaping up onto the top of the fence, tail hanging down behind him as he stared out at the grey buildings and the roar of monsters came from nearby. Tufted ears flicked back and forth at the once familiar noise that now sounded too loud. The stench was also much worse than he remembered, and he wrinkled his nose in response.
Dark green hues looked from the buildings to the forest behind him. A contemplative look crossed his broader features as he recalled that not too long ago he would sit here, watching the forest for movement, wishing for something different. Something that he could make his life worth living for again. Being a house cat had been great, good even, but it was so- monotonous.
Same thing day in and day out. Same dry food, same bed, same toys, same everything. It left a hole in his chest he didn't know was missing until he founded Skyclan over a year ago now. Found his mother, and now his sister, and he had the start of something good in his life. It was no clear cut decision to leave behind the comforts of his home, but it was one he was glad to have made.
Ashenclaw gave a deep sigh through his nose before something cross his scent glands back inside the forest line- a bird. He perked up his ears and hopped down from the fence, crouching in the grass as he watched a little robin peck at some trash on the ground. He crawled towards it with his tail out behind him, and his gaze narrowed. There was a few pawsteps towards the bird before it took off into the air.
He gave chase.
Though the bird soon disappeared into the forest.
As did Ashenclaw.
