Silver mewed at her brother, soon finding him after following his faint tracks. She wanted him to follow her and she began walking back, mewing loudly so that he wouldn't get distracted.

Raven nodded, following Scatter.... well, walking next to Scatter. "I have a bad feeling about something, Scatter. I think that one of the cats, a personal friend of mine, may have spoken to Shadow... he may have told him that we are thriving. I've seen him spying on us a lot. Now i need your help. Capture him. His name is Eagle and he must be interrogated as soon as possible. Theres two reasons i wanted to be alone with you. It is my understanding that he has not seen you, therefor you have the upper hand and your incredible beauty may or may not grab his attention, depends on if he has a mate or not. But eve if he does, he is incredibly flirtatious and may chase you as well. We can't let Tempest know though, i think he consider's Eagle as a trusted member of the Black Pearl and i dont want to tarnish that trust until we know for sure that Eagle can be trusted." she explained to Scatter as clear as she could.

Ash looked towards her mate, Eagle, purring softly. She still couldn't believe that he had asked her to be his mate. She was overjoyed and had no idea what to say to him, other than 'I love you'. She stepped forward and padded over to him, resting her head under his chin and purring loudly. "Hello, my love. How are you doing?" she asked, smiling softly.

Talon looked around nervously before slipping into the underbrush before seeing a shecat in a makeshift den with four kittens nursing at her belly. Newborns. Talon thought, grinning softly. Then, it hit her! Of course! I take the kits and convince Shadow that they're his! Then I'll at least have a chance! she thought. The mother was exhausted clearly from birth and was sleeping deeply. Talon recognized her as a former tribe cat named Splash of Playful Dolphin, aka Dolphin. She crept up to the silver shecat, who was sleeping silently, and examined her kits. Perfect. They look exactly like Shadow and I! This is foolproof! she thought before quickly unsheathing her claws. She closed her eyes before bringing them down on Dolphin's throat. The queen lay immobile, bleeding out, and Talon quickly grabbed the scruffs of two kits and put the other two on her back, balanced by her spine. She quickly ran off, carefully, before finding an abandoned, hollow den and laying inside of it. She made a small nest after gathering sticks, moss, and seaweed from the beach and making it appropriate for her as a mother. She bit her lip after realizing that the kits needed milk. Of course, how didn't I think of that?! They'll die without milk! She didn't know what to do. I'll just feed them regular prey. It'll make them stronger faster. she thought cleverly. She looked outside to see night falling and realized the kits would get cold. She hissed to herself, realizing she had to actually take care of them. After all, she was their new mother. She hadn't thought her plan through completely. She curled around the four kits and pressed her nose against her paw. She wasn't ready to be a mother, but she couldn't just let these kits die. They had potential- for the tribe, the rogues, and her and Shadow. Finally, she heard a noise and looked outside. "Shadow?" she asked in surprise.

Fox had gotten to the meeting late, slipping in hopefully unnoticed - just in time to hear Shadow praise Rain and himself, and he very much appreciated that. Sitting down, he listened quietly, frowning - it really was the rainy season, and if any cats worked too hard, there would be an absolute boom in sickness. This was a season to be careful and to rest!

Rain That Falls Quietly (Rain)
The pale gray and white tabby she-cat dipped her head slightly, flattening her ears in slight embarrassment.

Rumble of Distant Thunder (Rumble)
The pale brown tabby tom listened to Shadow, staying completely quiet.

Spark of Fading Embers (Spark, known to most of the tribe as Fading)
The ginger and white tabby she-cat pricked her ears as she heard the part about patrolling. She nodded barely, patiently waiting for Shadow to end the meeting.

Seashells By The Shore (Seashell)
The cream lynx point she-kit looked up at her mother when she left, sleepily.

"His praise doesn't feel as good as Tempest's or yours does," Fox admitted softly, his voice barely above a whisper as he glanced at Rain.

Talon looked down at the kits, mewling loudly with hunger. She gulped nervously, realizing she couldn't leave them there to hunt, nor could she bring them with her to hunt. She began to grow tired of their constant mewling and snapped at them. "Oh, shut up, would you?!" she hissed before one of the kits started to cry from the loudness of Talon's hiss, even though its ears weren't completely open. She sighed and looked around before putting the kits in the back of the den and covering them lightly with palm leaves. She padded out onto the beach and then pounced on a crab, quickly bringing it back to the den. She had realized that she didn't really hear Shadow- it was just her imagination. She chewed up the crab and spit it out to the kits to eat since they didn't have teeth yet and they gobbled it up greedily. "Eat up, my little demons." she chuckled sarcastically, looking down at them. Her heart beat softly as she looked at them. They're so beautiful... and they're mine! she thought. W... Wait- no! This is just for Shadow. I can't get attached to these kits! she reminded, forcing herself to rip her gaze from the precious kits.

He shook his head and went off the ship. All this thinking brought up his little sister Dandelion blowing in wind. honey colored fur, Golden eyes and stripes, playful and silly..... I miss you. I miss you following me, playing with my tail, curled up next to me sleeping. Tears fall down his face and into the sand. He keeps walking, hoping to get some distance between him and the Black Pearl. That newleaf playing in the warm sun, splashing in tide pools He started to run. The way she'd tickle him with her tiny whiskers, her sweet innocent face, He ran faster. the way she could cheer him up, the day she was born, her adorable mews, the name he picked for her, her last day alive He ran so hard, he had to stop and catch his breath. Once he did he yowled his sorrow in to the sky. The cruel captain, Dandelion's murder, him fighting then looking on in terror, blood soaking into his paws, his nose in her chocolate scented fur He collapses on to sand sobbing. I couldn't save her.....

Eagle smiled. "Ah, my love. I'm doing well, sweet." he whispered, nuzzling his chin on her head. He felt deep love for her. "Oh um... i need to tell Shadow something." he whispered, then stood. "Excuse me, i have some.... news." he called to his leader.
