((OF DOOM))
Blue eyes watched curiously from the backseat as his family drove down the long dirt road into the forest. They'd come far from the city this time, Hero noticed. It was as if his parents were wanting to get lost out there away from their den which was something the young cat didn't understand. His humans would often go out like this to do something that they called 'camping' and they would never leave him at home, being like their son. As the car stopped the chubby cat went over to peer out the window at the new woods that he looked over with sparkling eyes. "Wow," he purred, excited by the new area for him to explore.
Pulling away from the window he jumped up onto the compartment between his master's who smiled happily at him, the female patting his head. Her voice was soft as she spoke something softly to him before hopping out of the car with her mate. The woman being careful not to hit her steadily growing belly.
Hero waited a few minuets as his humans began to take out all the supplied they had brought, beginning to set up their camp for the weekend. The male seemed to be doing most of the work so that the female could rest on a stump next to the pit where they would make a fire. Finally once the camp was set up she stood to come back to the car where she plucked him from the backseat before taking him over to the tent. Setting him down outside of it she patted his head again and went about the camp preparing some of the smaller things like food for them. Hero on the other hand busied himself with looking around the area for something interesting. Standing on the edge of the forest he peered into the deep woods with a small grin on his face as he began to slowly move forward.
White paws softly padded at the leaf covered floor as he came into the woods, only going in a few yards before he stopped to simply look around. His mouth opened slightly to smell the air and he let out a light sigh, "It's so lovely out here..." Sitting down in between two large birch trees he closed his eyes to simply left his head to the sky. There he sniffed the air lightly, smelling rain in the air. He didn't move though as he was too interested in just staying there. Under the cover of the forest.

Catching the scent of a stranger, a tannish cat turned and crouched down in the bushes, slowly slipping towrads the unfamiliar scent. Someone was on their territory. But It didn't smell like a cat from any of the other clans... Which meant it was either a rouge or a simple kittypet. Green Eyes azed through the foliage almost curiously, spotting a somewhat white cat up ahead, at the edge of the tree line. Grey ocean snorted slightly, stepping forward through the bushes and lifting his head proudly. "What are you doing here?" He almost growled, trying to keep anger out of his meow. "This is our land, you shouldn't be here, kittypet."

Hero was too deep in thought to notice the scent of the other cat as he simply sat there, staring up at the sky through the trees. This meant that the sound of the other cat's voice scared him worse than the dark did, making him jump. Fur bristling he stared wide eyed at the other as the tag on his collar began to jingle slightly. "I-I...I'm just sitting. I promise I haven't done anything wrong," he quickly meowed, stepping back until his backside bumped into the tree behind him causing him to jump once more. Searching around for a chance to escape from the other in case of an attack, his tail flickered anxiously.

GreyOcean tilted his head slightly, looking over the other cat quickly. "I think the others would think differently. You're on Treeclan territory, kittypet. You probably couldn't survive a moon if you got left out here," he meowed, taking slow steps towards the other cat, his tail flicking casually. "You look too... soft... to stay out here for long," he pointed out, seeming to almost visibly relax now that he knew this other cat was nowhere near a threat.

The white can pressed his backside further up against the tree as the other cat came close, his ears flicking back as if he was scared which he was. Letting out something like a whimper he simply stared at the ground to try and calm himself. He'd heard stories from the other cats that these cats were savages who liked to kill cats like him...the thought scared him of course. "My...f-family is here with me...just over there," he said, tilting his head towards the camp where he'd come from. "W-We're just s-staying for the week...t-then we're going...h-home..."

Greyocean paused for a moment before he let out something close to a chuckle, sitting back on his haunches. "You sound absolutely terrified of me. Come on now. If I wanted to hurt you I would have done so before you even knew what was going on," Greyocean straightened his eyes again, his green eyes lit up with a slight curiousity. "What's it like? To not have to hunt for your own food all the time, and to not have to worry about badgers or anything else?"

Slowly sitting down he looked at the other with his own curiosity though he didn't voice any questions that he had. Instead he sat back and simply answered what he was asked, wanting to keep the other cat happy. "I-It's nice...I enjoy hunting mice in the...g-garden though..." he muttered, his blue eyes falling down to ground once more. "I like the food that they give me better though...Mice taste weird."

"...Weird? Trust me, mice tastes better than crow. Fish are probably the best though," Greyocean meowed happily, looking back over his shoulder towards the darkness of the trees again. "Of course... I'd never leave it behind... my clan means too much to me for any silly kittypet things."

"H-Hey!" Hero exclaimed, suddenly standing up with his tail and ears raised. "W-We aren't as silly or whatever as you think! We have to survive just as much as you do in our home! There's dogs and these people with nets as well as the monsters..."

Greyocean blinked, tilting his head a bit. "Oh really? Monsters? What kind of monsters could you have to deal with? We have dogs, badgers, those twolegs you seem to love so much. The other clans..."

Hero frowned and tilted his head off towards the camp, "The big one...that the people travel in." He then turned back to the other cat with a deep frown on his face before moving away from the tree to come sit down a bit closer to the other cat, still keeping his distance though.

Greyocean thought for a few minutes. "Oh, those monsters that go on the thunderpaths?" He meowed quiestioningly, following the kittypet's gaze to look over at their camp. "Why would the twolegs want to come all the way out here... You're from the place where Boneclan is, right?"

The younger cat obviously shivered at the name of the clan and his head quickly lowered almost submissively. Nodding lightly he quickly attempted to change the subject, "I uh have always...wondered...what it was really like...in the clans...Everyone says y-you're a bunch of savages..."

Greyocean snorted slightly, shaking his head. "Depends on which clan you run into. Boneclan is called that for a reason," he meowed quietly, glancing over his shoulder towards the trees again. "I'd say the rest of us aren't that bad... except maybe Rockclan... but they're by the Tall Rocks."

"What clan are...you from...uh..." he meowed, tilting his head to the side out of curiosity when he realized he hadn't gotten the other's name. Flicking his tail behind him he began to wonder if his humans had gotten dinner set up yet as he felt a small pang of hunger come to his stomach.
