Warriors: Choose Your Own Adventure (COMPLETE)

[Arcaii]

"It'll make your home's lake look like a puddle."

You remember Pretty Boy's words about the ocean as clear as day. Now, staring up at the sky-scraping towers of glass, surrounded by massive buildings and wide roads to accommodate cars like a hive's entrance does its worker bees, you feel that the words would accurately describe this place. Derby looks like a singular building in comparison to this monstrosity. It almost glares down at you, daring you to enter its infinite maw which is permanently fixed open in a roar that echoes forever with the sounds of the city.

"Gottagoinatsomepoint," Scat mutters. His tail is shaking stiffly.

"I know," you mutter. You spent a week getting here. You can't turn around now, no matter how much you want to.

"We're so close," Thimble says. She fixes both of you with a look of fierce determination. "You're almost home, Asterpaw. The sooner we find her, the sooner we can go, right?"

"Yes..." you say hesitantly. "But-"

"I know. It's freaking me out, too." She looks up at the tallest building. "We'll just all have to be scared together."

You sigh. "Let's get it over with, then."

You're currently standing on a small mound to the right of the road. From this angle, you can see that the land dips, and the road briefly becomes a bridge. There doesn't appear to be any water under it right now, so you could cross if you wanted to. On your side, the layout is a little familiar - brick buildings forming a little cluster that you're sure has alleys. On the other side, you can see a mound of stone and grass. You don't know what that is, but it might have food.

"There's some plant life across the way," you say, squinting in the light. "We can probably find some food there."

"Sounds fine to me," Thimble says. "You still haven't shown me how to get into those garbage cans."

"Well- what, is one just gunna be in the woods somewhere?" you say incredulously as you lead the way to the bridge. "When am I supposed to teach you?"

"I'm just saying, it's handy knowledge, and you're keeping it from me." Thimble gives you a flick with her tail. "Maybe if you'd taken me down the hill-"

"Sorry, I guess I was busy not dying and paying off thugs."

"You didn't even think to include me." Thimble mockingly looks away with a pouting face. "How selfish."

She looks back and laughs at your expression. Scat rolls his eyes and trots ahead.

"No, no, you get back here and settle this!" you say. "Scat, come on, you know I had stuff to do. I might as well have brought you along, honestly."

"Ioffered," he points out.

"But-"

"Just admit you wanted to be a cool cat who pays off his own debts," Thimble says. "Otherwise we could have helped you out."

"Yeah, okay, sure," you say sarcastically. "A kitten who hasn't hunted a day in her life and the one cat everyone wants to kill. That would have worked out perfectly."

"I'm not a kitten! I've told you this."

"Oh, yeah?" You look at her with an expression of condescending politeness. "Pray tell, then, how old are you?"

"I was eight and a half months when we met," she says, sticking her tongue out. "Not much younger than you."

"Are you serious?" You peer at her. "You look like you're seven moons at most."

"I guess that's one thing we house cats have above you noble 'ferals'," Thimble says smugly. "At least we all look young and beautiful. You're already looking like an adult and you're still too short."

"When we find some water, I'm dunking your head in it," you growl.

"What about you, Scat?" Thimble says, turning her head to the little tom ahead of you. "How old are you?"

Scat pauses, thinks, nods his head to himself, and looks back. "'Boutayear'n'ahalf. Maybemore. Nevercounted."

"So why aren't you mocking him for being short?" you say exasperatedly.

"He's at peace with it," Thimble says. "Watch - hey, Scat! You're tiny and skinny!"

Scat nods and keeps walking.

"See?" Thimble looks back at you. "No point. You, on the other hand, get angry about it."

"Soclosetobeingnormal," Scat says philosophically. "Yetsofar."


I am gunna dunk you BOTH.
Let's just get back on track.
At least I can hold my own.
