 Dawn was approaching the Valley, and Daisybloom felt restless. The molly had mostly transitioned to the noctournal lifestyle DarkClan offered to some cats, though she still felt as if there was something missing. Something still felt wrong.
The calico padded through the territory, allowing her mind to guide her through the thawing tundra and into the marsh. In a few moons, this end of the territory would be illuminated by fireflies, a sight Daisybloom had seen for the first time as an apprentice. She couldn't wait to see them again.
She climbed onto a fallen log, sitting down and wrapping her tail around her paws. Her gaze fell onto the direction of ShadowClan's border. So that's what had been bothering her.
She gazed out towards the pines in the distance, sadness pulling at her heart. Even after 5 moons, the she-cat was still homesick. Surely she should feel at home in DarkClan by now? Still, the warm fires in camp, ashy pawprints decorating the dens, kits catching their own tails on fire, it was the little things she missed the most.
Did she regret leaving it all behind? Lost in thought, Daisybloom was unaware of her approaching Clanmate. NOTES ; baby,,, |

The tall tom hadn't meant to follow her. He'd only accidentally come across her on his unusual lonely walks, and after noticing her somber mood, he had followed. The odd feeling of wanting to comfort her flooded him, but he knew he would no good. So, he followed, opting to protect her should anything happen. He was nearly silent, his pelt occasionally brushing against something.
As she stopped, he did as well, confusion taking over. They were at the Shadowclan border? Why? Was she meeting with someone? No, he realized. She...was from Shadowclan. Did she miss it? He couldn't understand why she would. He didn't miss Thunderclan. With a sigh, he approached her, clearing his throat. "Daisybloom?" He said, voice void of his usual unforgiving tone. The tom sat close, looking towards the border as well. "Do you miss it?" He asked.

Daisybloom's ears turned to the sound of Softprance's voice. She turned her head to see the chocolate-pointed tom and offered him a polite smile. "Oh, g-good evening, Softprance." She said, dipping her head.
She nodded as he asked if she missed ShadowClan. "I...I do, s-sometimes." She sighed. Daisybloom returned her gaze to the border. "I left o-out of fear of war w-with ThunderClan." The molly glanced down at her paws. "A-And found war with them here instead."
The calico warrior recalled her battle with Owlpaw of ThunderClan moons ago. The young tom had once been Deputy Apprentice, and now he walked with StarClan. She knew she had nothing to do with his passing, yet guilt still pulled at her heart. She wished she could have had a better relationship when they were apprentices, perhaps sharing stories at the Gathering like most cats did at their age. Instead, they only knew one another on the battlefield.
"I-I always wonder...i-if it was worth it. Leaving my littermates, m-my parents, j-just to find the very thing I-I was running from here." She frowned. NOTES ; hug her omg,, |

His gaze never left the border, icy gaze taking in every detail. An ear twitched as she spoke again, "War follows you no matter where you go. Too many different personalities. Too many different ideals. War is bound to happen eventually." Softprance looked at her, his eyes softening. "But, if it's any consolation, I'm...glad you're here. In Darkclan, I mean."
He couldn't relate to wanting to return to his birth clan. Being treated as if his very existence was wrong as if he could choose how he'd end up. He could barely tolerate Thunderclan at the gathering, much less living with them again. Even if he wanted to live with them, Lynxstar would never allow it. And if he somehow did, he'd be an outcast still. He was happy in Darkclan; well, as happy as a cat like him could get. He was cold, yes, but ever loyal to his clan, to his home. "I could never go back to Thunderclan. I don't miss it, either."
"A war between Thunderclan and Shadowclan already seems to be brewing, Daisybloom. It would have happened either way."

The molly frowned at his remark. "I...I s-suppose it does..." She sighed. War was bound to happen eventually. She thought of the border skirmish with RiverClan, an event still fresh in the minds of the cats who were on the patrol at the time. RiverClan had been kind enough to give DarkClan a portion of their land when Ravenstar proposed the founding of her Clan. And now look at the two, arguing over a scrap of land now that the Elm Sliver had been swallowed by the earth itself.
Daisybloom gave a soft smile when he told her that he was glad she was with DarkClan. "Th-Thank you, Softprance. I'm glad you're h-here too. I-In DarkClan." She said.
He spoke of ThunderClan with his usual cold tone, her amber eyes looking at him as he did. It seemed to be the general consensus from any former ThunderClanners that the Clan had been toxic towards them. Daisybloom couldn't understand why they held such hatred toward Dark Elementals. What did they ever do to them to deserve such spite? Such anger?
"I just...I d-don't understand why Th-ThunderClan always has t-to start things. I-I'm sure those fires were an accident. They have g-good hearts in Sh-ShadowClan." Daisybloom furrowed her brow. NOTES ; n/a |

She was glad he was in Darkclan? That's the first he's heard that from anyone. Ever. He looked away, ears burning. "Y-yeah. I...I'm glad I'm here too." Daisybloom seemed to be the only cat in the entire clan that enjoyed his presence. He couldn't help but feel attachment to her; the need to keep her safe was strong.
"It's Lynxstar." He replied, ears flattening. "Lynxstar doesn't like anyone aside from himself." The tom snorted, shaking his head. "I'm glad I left all those moons ago. I wouldn't have ever belonged, and they sure as hell didn't make me feel like I did." His eyes narrowed, looking down at his paws. Claws unsheathed, digging into the ground under him. He had more anger than he realized. "Sorry."

Daisybloom listened as the tom spoke, nodding in agreement when he brought up Lynxstar. She'd never met the tom personally, only seeing the old cat perched upon ThunderClan's rock at the Gatherings. Still, all she could base him off of were his detestable behaviour towards her kind and her Clanmates. Even back in ShadowClan, she was raised to be fearful of him. Threats of retaliation against ShadowClan and DarkClan were most of the words she'd ever heard him say.
Even now the ThunderClan leader showed no signs of having any intentions to change his ways. Daisybloom prayed that Briarsong would enact some sort of change for tolerance should Newtpaw perish before Lynxstar. She was not familiar with the Leader Apprentice, but knew Briarsong to be more reasonable than her superior. "I-I guess we can only hope that ThunderClan's n-next generation has some sense,." She sighed.
Daisybloom shook her head as Softprance apologized. "I-It's okay. It's better t-to let it out than to bottle it up, right?" She furrowed her brow. "Like when I was scared o-of my own element a-and it's power. I had to face it h-head on before it consumed me." She looked down at her paws.
"I-I'm not sure I'd still be here today if I didn't." NOTES ; Man I thought I was waiting on your reply :uraclown: |
