*+:。.。 He was a coward.

A fact he'd believed he'd managed to stomach down by now and yet....Shame crawled up and down his spine, pooling sore beneath the scratches over his eyes as he placed each step tentatively through the underbrush. After moons of living in darkness, the killer had grown accustomed to using his ears for everything and his touch for the rest - though he'd never be fast again, and every catch was more a miracle than evidence of his skill, he was getting better. Unfortunately, he wasn't good enough yet to survive on the outskirts of the forest. He could survive on the occasional roadkill only so often when very few animals die on the side of the Thunderpath nowadays.
So, here he was.
Sniffing along and ensuring the scent of Thunderclan remained as far as possible despite his presence within clan-claimed land. Neutral land, mind you, as the overwhelming stench of feline made the four trees lack of singular claim well known...although, was it just him or was Thunderclan's scent still more prevalent? Wrathpaw was sure he was imagining it - desperate longing to reunite with his old home still difficult to shake off despite everything.

Still, he did his best to avoid the border touching Thunderclan, eager to keep away from any confrontation. He just needed something to eat, then he was gone. Hopefully, by now his scent was so saturated by the Thunderpath that his presence here wouldn't be known...although a part of him couldn't help but somehow hope Lovelight or Orangepaw might...The killer shakes his head, burying his nose closer to the grass. No. Food, and get out. If he could just find a mouse or mole hole and wait long enough for the creature to foolishly try and escape...He licked his lips, stomach howling for something to eat.

Roaringsun hadn't really ventured towards Fourtrees to hunt since the agreement with WindClan had been made; his clanmates had sometimes, and he hadn't heard of trouble with the moor-dwellers in relation to this temporary hunting ground ( which is great, as they need all the food they can get with so many queens and kits in the nursery ).

He is atop the slope leading down onto the clearing when he hears the rustling of undergrowth. The tom flicks an ear dismissively, figuring it must be a WindClanner, or someone from his own Clan, but he stays just in case it isn't and it's a ShadowClanner or a RiverClanner trespassing ( he longs to sink his claws into their pelts for what they've done ).

Roaringsun doesn't expect to see the all-familiar pinkish fur of Wrathpaw step through the thicket, and he visibly tenses. Everything comes back to him in that moment: the words, the taunting, the battles, and the ThunderClanner wastes not a second longer before he's rushing down the slope, his lips curled into a snarl, claws unsheathed as he barrels into the exiled tom. He growls a warning, tail lashing wildly behind him - not that Wrathpaw could see anyway ( compared to what Stormywing had done, and would do if she saw him again, Roaringsun is kind ). "This is ThunderClan and WindClan land," for now he does not add, but if that is enough to keep Wrathpaw away in the future he figures it'd be for the best. "What are you doing here, Wrath-howl?" Roaringsun rasps, a taunt of his own, despite knowing that is his name no more ( was it ever? )
