Name: Moletalon
Gender: Male
Cherrypaw didn't tell him about DawnClan (or at least at first). How did he find out?: Molepaw - Mole at the time - knew something was up whenever Cherrypaw - Cherry at the time -didn't return from her hunting. He'd been injured in a fight with a vixen the day before, so he couldn't very well go with her or after her. It needed to rest. After two more days of no Cherry, he decided enough was enough and he was going to go find her. First, of course, he'd need water to survive.
Thankfully, Mole knew of a creek nearby he could get water from. After being fully refreshed, he began his limp after Cherry. It had been two days since the day she disappeared, so Mole couldn't rely a lot on scent. Not that he really did, because he found he was terrible at doing so. No, he followed pawprints, trampled undergrowth, anything that carried a bare scent of her he'd follow. Till it came to a stream she crossed through.
He'd lost her.
He sat at that stream for awhile. What was he to do now? He was starving. So, when he heard a noise in the undergrowth, his instincts came to life. He waited, and waited, and then he went in for the strike!
"What do you think you're doing?!" The hostile snarl greeted him as his claws hit nothing.
"Lepordfoot, stand down. He looks only apprentice-aged. He can't mean much harm." A second voice, gentler this time, reached him, and the first growled something unintelligible.
Mole slowly turned around, and was faced with one mainly gray cat and one that was mainlywhite with gray spots. "W-Who are you?"
"You're not in the position to be asking que-" The white one was the first voice, and obviously male, but the second cat's tail blocked the rest of his statement.
"I'm Thistlepounce," He liked this she-cat, "and this is my mate, Lepordfoot." He'd heard her say that name before now that he thought of it. "What are you doing here? And what's your name?"
"My name? Oh, I'm Mole. I was looking for my sister. Her name's Cherry, and I don't know where she's gone. She left me at our densite the day after I was injured in a fox fight."
"Injured in a fox foght, eh?" Lepordfoot gave a sniff. "Well, you do carry the limp that would prove that. You should get that treated."
"Treated?" Mole looked confused.
"Mouse-brain, he's not a clan cat. He has no medicine cat to do that." Thistlepounce whispered to Lepordfoot before speaking up. "Wasn't there a rogue who showed up three days ago, with a patrol? Said her name was Cherry?"
Lepordfoot nodded. "Yes. Medicine cat apprentice now, if I remember correctly."
"She's here?" Mole looked excited.
"Yes indeed. Come along, Mole. We'll bring you to your sister, Cherrypaw." Lepordfoot said, still looking a bit wary, while Mole tried to figure out these weird names.
From there, he was reunited with Cherry, who quickly informed him of her good fortune, and of her acceptance into the clan. This saddened him at first. His sister was leaving him. But she had her mentor treat his limp, and then he was informed he'd have to stay till it healed. He got a good view of clanlife that way. And he decided, when it was offered to him, to accept a position as a warrior apprentice.
