Tide That Swirls Around Reef
The new warrior was stalking around the outside of the camp, looking around for his friends and any prey. Tide hunches over briefly as a pang of hunger shoots through him. Blinking blatantly, he continues trudging.

Wave That Creeps Up Shore
Wave slipped out of camp, the light breeze giving her peace as it ruffled her fur. Smiling a little, Wave passed slowly towards the beach, ready to hunt. As she was walking, she glances around, hoping that someone would be nearby to join her.

Song from Swallow's Throat
Swallow was quietly watching the waves lap up the beach, his green gaze fixated on the glimmering water. Flicking his tail, he sighs to himself.

Rain That Falls Quietly (Rain)
The pale silver and white tabby she-cat turned to the cat, being as calm as she could. "It's alright, we're not going to hurt you."

Rumble of Distant Thunder (Rumble)
The pale brown tabby tom padded out of the ship to go hunt.

Spark of Fading Embers (Spark, known to most of the tribe as Fading)
The ginger and white tabby she-cat turned her head to face Shadow, completely aware of his growing hostility. "He used to be a follower of yours. Until you killed him when he disobeyed you." Her voice had turned into a growl when she had finished. "And you haven't the common decency to at least remember his name. "

Seashells By The Shore (Seashell)
The cream lynx point she-kit frowned slightly, but understood. "Oh, okay, Sunrise, Night. Can I hear a story?"

[RavenshadowRose]

Darkness happened to be near the tide path and heard the loud meowling of a she-cat. He took off to the path, seeing a she-cat with two kittens. They looked alot like her own, but the little female kit didn't seem to like this she. He let that sit in the back of his mind, stepping from the shadows. "May i help you, stranger?" he asked gruffly.

Silver didn't go far when she got frightened and ran back to camp, mewing loudly all the way. Her mews that a distressed tone, hoping for her mom to hear.

☠ Yelp of Wandering Jackal (Jackal) ☠
tom ◆ sailor ◆ 29 moons ◆ apprentice;; n/a ◆ crush;; open ◆ tags;; open <3

At the moment, Jackal lays lazily on the deck of the camp. He watched as other cats passed by, especially eyeing the she-cats. Today was a good day for flirting. Oh, who was he kidding, everyday was a good day for flirting. In a self-confident sort of manner, he raised himself to his paws once more. He began to almost kind of strut along the wooden floor, enjoying the sound his paw pads made on the old wood, as he vigorously searched for someone to interact with. It didn't have to be a she-cat, it could be a tom, he was simply bored out of his mind and was dying to have some sort of socialization. He just had to find someone that looked open to conversation.


➳ Gale that Fells Trees (Gale) ➳
tom ◆ sailor ◆ 38 moons ◆ apprentice;; n/a ◆ crush;; open ◆ tags;; open <3

Gale's eyes hesitated to open up, aching slightly as it took in the sudden light that made its way into the den. He groaned and sat up, blinking the grogginess away and looking around. Quickly, he realized he was the only one left sleeping. He panicked, mentally scolding himself for messing up so badly, for failing to be a proper role model, and groomed his pelt as fast as he could while hoping he'd look presentable to the rest of the tribe. At least he had an excuse, he spent a lot of the night thinking about Fish that Leaps High. He missed her, a lot, but at least their son was still around. He hurriedly made his way out of the camp and his mind raced as he desperately tried to think up a way to make himself useful, to make up for lost time while he was sleeping. He'd hunt! Deciding that hunting was the best course of action, he made his way toward the forest in a determined fashion.


♢ Crystal that Glows Brightly (Crystal) ♢
tom ◆ apprentice ◆ 11 moons ◆ mentor;; to be decided ◆ crush;; open ◆ tags;; open <3

Crystal sat on the deck, grooming his paws, tail thumping testily on the floor. He was waiting for his mentor to show up, to tell him what they were going to do today. He would be a sailor soon, and undoubtedly he was ready to leave behind the apprentice position. Perhaps his own father would stop patronizing him when he became a sailor, but at the same time he doubted it. He was still grieving over his mate, and treating Crystal like he was still a kit seemed to be apart of his coping with his loss. He sighed heavily, pushing away those thoughts to the back of his mind. They weren't important thoughts, and they wouldn't benefit him. They'll only weigh him down.

Tide That Swirls Around Reef
Tide's breath shallows as he stalks the small mouse a fox-length away from him. Stepping forward carefully, his glare was fixated on the mouse who was twitching it's nose.

Wave That Creeps Up Shore
Wave leaps back into camp, a small grin on her muzzle. From her jaws, a fat fish, small mouse and a tiny lizard hang. She skids to the freshkill pile, dropping off her catch. Satisfied, the silver spotted Gunner grooms her thick fur, eyes half closed as she sits in the warm speckled sunlight.

Song from Swallow's Throat
Swallow's eyes flew open as he heard a wave break. Blinking, he watches the rough surf float and try and grab at his dark paws. Chuckling to himself, he stand and starts to look around. Sighing, he pads towards the small jungle, his paws moving at a steady pace.

Shadow That Dances at Night
Shadow stared at Fading for what felt like hours, mind processing her words and the anger hidden beneath them. He was walking on thin ice, but thankfully, he was not afraid to take a dive. His claws, without so much as a second thought, unsheathed, revealing the thorn-sharp talons he greatly admired. It was not a threat in his mind; he needed to keep his paws preoccupied while he contemplated his words carefully. The anger of losing a loved one had the power to distort the mind; however, Shadow found himself almost amused. Before he could even respond, a smile had crept onto his features, curling the tips of his maw upward. "I have been the leader of my group for many moons. I have seen it all: murderers, theives, heroes, outcasts -- but then there are those that just don't make any impression on me at all," he paused to let his words sink in, looking out towards the sea as the wind started to pick up,"many have fallen under my paws. In order to lead a group effectively, you need to assert dominance." He spat out the last word for emphasis, eyes narrowing to eerie green slits.
"I'll let you in on a secret, doll face," he crept forward, claws clattering on the stone with each step, "There is no good or evil. There is only power, and then those that are too weak to seek it. Fang was one of those felines. You need to fight to survive. You cannot rely on a group to protect yourself when issues become too problematic to be dealt with morally. Fang needed to prove themselves, just like every other member that ever walked into my presence. Dying under my paw meant they were not strong enough to live. I was doing them a justice. He was one of many, and his name will be forgotten with time."
Shadow paused about a fox-length away from Fading, head tilting innocently. "I was a redeemder for the Tribe of the Black Pearl.
Everyone in the tribe is a follower. Followers disgust me. It is the leaders that make a true impact in the long run, and they are often the ones that get put down above all. Little is intelligent, able-bodied and sound of mind, experienced in battling and fighting, and yet . . . Tempest only recruited her as a simple boatswain? Do you call that reward for hard work? I showed her what power she deserved, but everything comes with a price."
"You have to be willing to give up who you are to become someone stronger, both physically and mentally. Little did this by sacrificing what most would say is the true form of innocence. Look where she is today . . . a strong, healthy mother that leads a tribe alongside me." He did not go into further detail about Little's sacrifice, but he believed that he had made his point crystal clear.

Eye of the Eerie Tempest
Tempest rested not-so-peacefully on Outcast Isle. His whiskers would twitch uneasily here and there, revealing signs of a potential nightmare. He did not trust being around so many criminals. He half-expected to wake up with his whiskers plucked out and his pelt trimmed to the skin. Though Raven had been friendly with them the past few moons, he was still unsure how to act around her followers. Tempest could only hope that he would be returning to the Tribe of the Black Pearl soon. His confidence in their investigation was slowly ebbing. It had been almost two full moons since the incident. What if he was doomed to stay on Outcast Isle forever?

Flower That Blooms in Shade
Flower broke away from the group for a brief moment, hoping their grip would hold. She saw her opportunity to be of some real help, and likewise, she took it. The apprentice ducked down, attempting to nudge Flame completely out of the way of the boulder. Flame's pulling and tugging were helping for sure, but Flower had no idea how much longer the patrol could keep up the strain.

Flower That Blooms in Shade
Flower felt reassured by the calm, collected tone of Ice. She was beginning to really enjoy being around the boatswain, and was not so terrified of being given a surprise chore. The mention of going to Crow, rather than Light, made her unconsciously smirk. Crow and Flower were not on the best terms. It was always a competition between the two. That is, if one calls Crow besting her all the time a competition. What would be next? Would Crow steal her best friend away too? The strange thing about their relationship, furthermore, was that they could be practically best friends one moment and then at each other's throats the next. It all depended on the situation and how much they needed each other. "I think Light would be the best option," she chuckled, shuffling her paws awkwardly,"he is the lieutentant after all." Flower tried to justifty not wanting to see Crow by stating Light's position in the tribe, hoping to disguise how uncomfortable she was with getting Crow involved.
When she noticed Light ceasing his conversation with Riptide, she bounced over immediately. "Hi Light!" she piped up enthusiastically, glad to be apart of something important for once -- er, sort of.

Stream Where Small Fish Swim
Stream blinked in surprise as she realized that she had not scented them on the way in. And now that she considered it, their scent had practically almost faded from the main entrance of the ship. "No, no, I insist that you both stay here. All of us have been out since sun high. Rest up and get some prey; I will take some fresh faces out to follow their trail. Do not worry, I am sure they probably just took their time marking the borders. It has been a while since they have been checked." Before they could argue, she bounded out of the surgeon den searching for some recruits to take with her. The first cat she spotted was Wave.
"Wave! Would you be willing to come with me on a patrol to find Flame, Fire, and the others? They left a while ago and have not returned."
Her eyes continued to scan the clearing for someone to tag along, and thankfully, Jackal was flaunting himself out on the main deck for all to see. "Jackal! Would you mind coming too? We are going to track them from camp."

Wave That Creeps Up Shore
Wave urgently stood, "Of course!" She leapt over to Stream, flicking her tail, waiting for Jackal. Her paws tingles with numbness as she was sitting still for too long. Sighing quietly to herself, she waits next to Stream.

tom ◆ sailor ◆ 29 moons ◆ apprentice;; n/a ◆ crush;; open ◆ tags;; Stream, Wave

Jackal halted, ears pricking up as his name was mentioned by a she, whom he identified as Stream. "It would be my pleasure." He replied with a rumbling voice, making no delays as he hurriedly took long strides across the deck to catch up with the two she-cats. He knew now was probably a time where he should keep his flirtatious side shut, as the matter was relatively serious. It was worrisome hearing that some of their tribemates haven't returned- he hoped they were alright.

//very blUNT TOO HOLY COW xD

Fox listened closely to Raven, nodding to show he understood that that would be very stressful. Touching his nose gently to Raven's, he blushed deeply at the last comment, "O-okay,"

//Also, if you search Fox in the search bar, you should be able to find my replies pretty quickly ♡

Upon seeing yet another new cat, Song shrunk back further and moved to hide behind Shallow's leg. She hated the she-cat, but she also didn't want to die completely at the hands of some other cat.

Light turned to see who had spoken to him, "Oh! Hello," he answered, sitting back down and wrapping his tail neatly around his paws, "How are you two doing?"

Spark of Fading Embers (Spark, known to most of the tribe as Fading)
The ginger and white tabby she-cat was almost shaking with anger, before she forced herself to calm down. "That's not what sacrifice means, Shadow. Here's an example. I gave up my kit so he could have a better life in the tribe, and he's still not safe from you." She replied, her claws sliding out.

Seashells By The Shore (Seashell)
The cream lynx point she-kit frowned slightly, but understood. "Oh, okay, Sunrise, Night. Can I hear a story?"
