The pretty red-gold she-cat ambled down the path next to the Moonpool stream. A slight breeze ruffled her fur, creating an illusion that she was double her normal size. She was untensed, her claws were sheathed. Today was a day for relaxation, for the assurance that nothing would come to harm. For she was traveling on ground that belonged to WindClan alone, and if she did by chance meet other cats here, they were under the protection of StarClan to travel to the Moonpool in peace. If was nice sometimes to get away from clan life, as much as she enjoyed it, even if it was just to hunt alone for a while. She had not been sent out on a mission by the leader, but had chosen to get out of camp and do something good for the clan.

It was around midafternoon, the sun had risen to the zenith of the sky. The rays that extended from it hit the stream and reflected off of it, blinding all cats that ventured to look directly at it. Some small silver minnows darted around, with the sun shining from off their scales, giving them a mystical glow. She would attempt to catch them, except fishing was not her forte. Rabbits and field mice were her preferred prey, if they were in abundance. That was what she had been trained to catch from apprenticehood, and she was more than happy to stick with that.

Her paws plodded along, each following the other, guiding her to StarClan-knows-where. Not even she had an idea where she was going. If she saw anything to hunt, then she would track it down and return for it when she was coming back to camp, but so far, the opportunity had not arisen. She longed for company, a cat that wouldn't talk their head off, but enjoy the beauty of the landscape with her. But she was one of the only WindClan cats that desired the quiet solitude that the Moonpool Stream offered to her.</sup>

Elkstar was needlessly running through the forest. He didn't know where he was going, nor did he know why. The only thing that made sense to him at the time was the wind ruffling his tabby fur. The ground was zooming by, no that wasn't right. He wasn't the one not moving the ground was. Knowing he couldn't go as fast as he once could a smile still crept to his face becasue he knew he was still basicly the fastest cat in the forest...when he wantd to be.

Once his senses kicked in he realized he was headed tpwards the Moonpoll Stream. Was Starclan leading him there? He knew the story of its origin. The great Thunderclan leader who had always been kind to Windclan and even had rescued them in the old forest, had two daughters. One a feirce fighter, the other a gifted medicine cat named Leafpool. She had contacted the great Medicine cats in the stars, and they had led her to what is now know as Moonpool. Would the alliance of old, between Windclan and Thunderclan, rekindle in the future? Ravenstar was an excellent leader, and if ever need be Elkstar knew he wouldn't be ashamed to have him by his side. But now was not the time for future.

Elkstar slowed his pace and was meerly walking when Moonpool Stream appead in his vision, though it wasnt the only thing that did. He spotted a glimpse of red-golden fur, and upon tasting the air he knew who it was. Stalking out to greet the she-cat he meowed

"Hello Goldstorm, what brings you out here?"[/b][/sup][/center]

A tabby cat, the leader of her clan, appeared on the horizon. It was a question to Goldstorm why she was out her, and she couldn't even begin to unravel the mystery of her leader joining her. Elkstar, the new leader of WindClan, had journied up the Moonpool stream just recently, to recieve his nine lives from StarClan. She often wondered what it would be like to have such a close connection with their warrior ancestor - frightening and enlightening at the same time. But her ambitions in life were just to serve WindClan to the best of here abilities. Definately not to lead them through peril and all the harsh times that could befall the clan.

She heard the sounds exit Elkstar's mouth, and raised her head in greeting. How could he have traveled so far so fast? "Not much," she replied, whiskers twitching slightly. "I had some free time, wanted to come out and, er, patrol the territory. You?" queried the golden she-cat, looking at him with interested eyes.

^{Elkstar was shocked when he found he didn't have a reason for being out here. Truly he just wanted to run like he did when he was a young warrior, or even apprentice; to run without the burden of a clan on your shoulders.How can you think that?! his conscience questioned. How in the name of great Starclan can you call your clan a burden? His conscious was true, it was a burden per say, but it was more weight. "Just out for a run on this beautiful day. You ever need to just," he paused for a second and stretched out his back right legs and attempted to stretch out his left front at the same time"stretch out your legs and run?"}
