AuroraClan and SongClan

[Ravenshadow17]

Duskwhisper sighed and relaxed, taking on a much more neutral stance. He dipped his head to Sandclaw. "We don't want any trouble either. " He then glanced at Eaglefire. "Perhaps we should take this time to acquaint our clans? How long have you been in the area? AuroraClan is relatively new and was founded only 3 leafbares ago." He explained. He was still wary, but he felt that Eaglefire was right. And Sandclaw did not seem to be active threat.

Eaglefire sent her companion a satisfied glance and waited for Sandclaw to answer.

(Sorry for the delay. It's been a hectic wek.

[TheSongOfTheStars]

"It's...been a little while now," Sandclaw said dismisivly, because in all honestly he couldn't remember "But longer than three leafbares. We would be....honored to establish a formal relation with your clan, if we found it in our interest."

(No, I totally get it. I'm going to be pretty busy the next few days, just so you know)

[Ravenshadow17]

Duskwhisper nodded. "We would like that as well. Shall we bring our leaders to the border, or arrange a meeting on neutral ground?" The warrior asked. He did not like the idea of meeting anywhere that gave either side an advantage. That would be no way to start a positive relationship between the clans.

[TheSongOfTheStars]

"You can bring your leader here," Sandclaw said with a thoughtful flick of his tail "Say, at sundown. We and our leader will meet you here, at these rocks, if that is alright with you?"
As he spoke, he never broke eye contact with Duskwhisper. Behind him Firefly nodded her agreement Sandclaw's plan.

[Ravenshadow17]

Duskwhisper nodded in response, meeting Sandclaw's eyes the enter time. "That will work. See you soon." Duskwhisper agreed. He was already beginning to try and determine how to approach this subject with his clan. Ravenstar would be all for it, but Hawkstrike... Duskwhisper hoped that the deputy would agree.

Eaglefire glanced at Duskwhisper and then gave a final nod to the other cats. The duo then turned and returned to camp.
"Dad's not going to like this." She said simply, and her old mentor gave a weary sigh.
"No he's not."

(Hawkstrike, who is the deputy, is Eaglefire's father. Ravenstar is her mother.)

[TheSongOfTheStars]

"We will be here then," Sandclaw said by way of confirmation. He turned and disappeared back into the forest, Firefly by his side.
"What do you think of our neighbors?" The deputy quiered.
Firefly tilted her head and narrowed her eyes "I don't know enough to draw a conclusion," she replied shortly "But outsiders mean trouble, not at first maybe, but eventually there comes strife."

(makes sense.
Do you want to timeskip ahead to when they're meeting?)

[Ravenshadow17]

(Sure)

Ravenstar padded along beside Hawkstrike and Eaglefire. Duskwhisper followed closely behind. The group was quiet, each cat deep in their own thoughts. They soon approached the border and Ravenstar sat down a few feet from it. Hawkstrike remained standing at her shoulder while Duskwhisper and Eaglefire watched tgeir surroundings carefully.

Wildeyes bounced. She could barely keep herself from breaking out into a full on sprint to get to the assigned meeting place. To counter balance their leader's excitment, Sandclaw and Redsparrow followed at a steady pace, eyes dark with their own thoughts. Bearheart came last, but he couldn't help the faint smile as he watched his enthusiastic mate charge onwards.
They came on the border and the other cats sitting in the swathe of moonlight and Wildeyes managed to curb her excitment just enough so that she appeared a decently serious leader.
"We're here, as we said," Sandclaw said stiffly, by way of greeting.

[Ravenshadow17]

Ravenstar nodded curtly. "Thank you for coming. I am Ravenstar, leader of AuroraClan. And this is my deputy Hawkstrike." She introduced politely. Hawkstrike stood at her shoulder protectively, his stance relaxed but at attention. He eyed the newcomers neutrally, but internally ne was cataloging every bit of information about them that he could.

Duskwhisper stood just behind Hawkstrike, Eaglefire at his side. The tom was relaxed but paying attention, while his younger companion was carefully watching the newcomers.

[TheSongOfTheStars]

"We're so, so pleased to meet you," Wildeyes dipped her head and smiled, her tail swishing back and forth "I am Wildeyes leader of Songclan. You've met Sandclaw, my deputy. This is Redsparrow my sister and my mate Bearheart."
Wildeyes met the gaze of each of the cats of the other clan and Redsparrow and Bearheart nodded when they were introduced. Sandclaw's tail curled disdainfully.
