Phew! That was a nice little cliff-hanger, wasnt it? xD Sorry for the delay /: Unfortunately, this page(or the next) may be the last one before I go on Vacation. I'll be leaving on the 2nd of July to go to Montana(<3), and return around the 14th. Then on July 20th I'll be going to Arizona until the 25th. I wn't be able to get on the computer at either places. Sorry! /:
Honestly, I really dislike this page, especially the second panel. >.< The lines and shading are both really sloppy /: Plus I wish I could have done something to make the explosion look cooler. Ahwell /:
For those of you who didnt see, on the preious page I posted an explanation for the comic's basics. Read! :3 :
To clear some things out throughout the whole comic, because I have nothing better to do; Red, whom is Zespri's father, is the Boss/Leader of his "Family". The members in his family are not all related to him; family is a term they use to recognize themselves. He is usually referred to as the Boss. For those of you who have read the Warriors Series, he'd be like the Leader. However, different from Warriors, Red's Daughter is considered a bit special because of her heritage. As is Red's Mate. Earlier, you saw Red waking up Zespri for her Final Hunt. The Final Hunt is a young cat's final assessment that determines if they're mature enough to contribute to Red's Family as an adult. They can contribute to Red's Family two ways: as a Hunter, or as a Guard. Hunters obviously hunt, while Guards protect The Family. Higher-Ups tend to learn how to do both; Hunt as well as Guard. Higher-Ups would include Red, Zespri, Crystal(Red's Mate), and Tangle, who is Red's First Assistant. First Assistant in Swindle is similar to a Deputy in Warriors. (Note: Just because some ranks are similar to Warrior's, does not mean a Family runs the same way. Just want to clarify that!). Hunter, who was earlier seen confronting Zespri for being late, is a Guard(A bit ironic, eh? xD). However, he is a young Guard, and just recently recieved his Official Adulthood from Red. Tangle, as First Assistant, usually trains young cats to become Hunters or Guards. He can recruit Senior Hunters and/or Guards to assist him.
Hope that clears some stuff up!
