Coal

The young cat sat perched on fence post. The square was the perfect size for him, which was saying something. Most 5-moon old had to concentrate on not falling. Those who were...normal. Healthy. His red eyes glimmered in the light of the sun set. The forest shadows stretched outwards, as if reaching towards him. Who knows what kinds of stuff are hidden there, Coal thought. I would if I went to see for myself.

The tortie tom let out a wistful sigh. If I ever live that long enough to really explore it... Suddenly he wanted to run into the forest right now. It seemed to call to him. I will see it before I die. He puffed out his chest as he tried to imagine it. "Live each day like your last. Treat the next like a bonus," Coal mewed aloud. I should go right now! He crouched, about to jump off, weighing the consequences. What if he fainted? It was almost night time. Still poised to jump, the kit hesitated.

Allyson jumped up beside Coal. She was a small cat herself, and found Coal a bit handsome. "Hello dere. How are you tonight?" she, her english accent heavy.

[xX_-Oceanstar-_Xx]

A black cat perched awkwardly on the fence, clouded amber eyes staring towards the forest. The heavy accent of Alyson reached her ears, but Amber ignored it. She sighed and slid down the fence post, then scented the air. Familiar two-leg scents filled her nose. Food, dust, monsters. I don't belong here...This isn't how I should live my life... she thought, a determined look on her face. "I'm going to the forest." she finally said, and held her nose high. It would lead her there, if she followed the scent of the trees and dirt...and the scent of prey.

Coal

He turned his head as Allyson hopped onto the post beside his. Coal flicked his tail in greeting. He saw Amber in the garden beside his own Twolegs'. They were both older than him, how much he didn't know. The five-moon old kit never told any cat of his 'condition'. Not unless he had too. Which he usually didn't. Being here was boring. There was never anything happening. Nothing new. Nothing to explore. His yearning to go into the forest intensified. My life may be shorter that it's supposed to be, but I'm spending it the way I want to. And that's going into the forest. Near death or not.

Coal blinked his red eyes at Allyson, wondering if she ever wanted to see the outside world. Just then, Amber's words reached his ears. Immediately, he scrambled to his paws and dashed towards the fence post Amber had just slid down. Excitement bubbled up in his small, runt-sized body. For a moment he forgot that he might faint if he over exerted himself. The tom leapt down, staggering slightly as his small paws hit the ground. "I want to go with you!" Coal blurted, red eyes bright. Glancing up at Allyson, he added, "You should come, too!"

[Blue the Bumblebee]

Me? Well...I've always wanted something more but... She meowed, surprised.

Coal

He jumped up and down, his fur fluffed out. "It'll be amazing! I've been with Twolegs too long already. I'm not spending the rest of my life doing the same thing. I have to do as much as I can before that," he declared, padded around quickly. Just then he realized he was nearly out of breath and panting slightly. He was getting a tiny bit dizzy too. Coal immediately sat down, no longer bouncing around and dancing on the grass. Reminded instantly of his sickness, his fur flattened and his eyes grew serious, almost older than his real age.
Soon the dizziness faded away, and the kit started again, calm. "But what? Who knows what's in the forest? We should go into the forest together, and maybe it won't be as dangerous with more cats."

[Blue the Bumblebee]

I'm just...well. Scared. I'm scared. But I want to be free. and... I want to be with you.... She added sielently. So whatif he was 10 moons younger. Her mum was older then her dad...what so wrong with that?

Coal

"Oh." Coal turned his head towards the trees. After a while, he asked, "Are we going now?" The tortoiseshell cat looked from Allyson to Amber. It was almost night time, and he wanted to see his parents one more time before going. But he wouldn't tell them he was leaving. They were too overprotective. They would never let him go off into the wild. Not when there were so many stories about savage cats who killed to survive. But he didn't care. I'm not going to live as long as most other cats anyway. With a hint of bitterness, he muttered, "I can't wait to go."

[Blue the Bumblebee]

Alyson looked at the sky. She longed to be free...to be with Coal...to be happy. She was hardly ever happy, but when she was with Coalm, she could be. She felt a breeze ruffel her fur. Me either.. she purred, mostly twards Coal

[xX_-Oceanstar-_Xx]

Amber nodded as the two cats decided to join her. Being blind, she didn't really care. Was actually a bit grateful that she'd have some company. "I plan to leave now, yes." she said, unseeing eyes staring at the forest, as if she really could see it. It's where I belong...My greatest fears lie there...but I must face them...I'm no kittypet...I'm a forest cat...

OOC:: wow...3 kittypets going wild all at the same time lol
Coal(to frost clan!)

The kit thought for a moment. I can always come back and visit. That is, before I die... Coal thought bitterly. "I'm coming, too, then." Glancing at Allyson, he asked, "Are you? We probably won't come back to our Twolegs."

[Blue the Bumblebee]

I'll go with you, Coal. I promise, I will. She meowed.

[xX_-Oceanstar-_Xx]

((lol. I can't decide if I want to take Amber to SunClan or FrostClan....))

Amber turned as Alyson agreed to come. "The forest is a dangerous place. You may never return. Are you sure you want to come?"she meowed in her distant tone.

(( GRR! dead brain!!!!!))

Coal

Without thinking, Coal leapt to his paws. "I know I am. I'm not going to live long anyway; Twoleg or forest," he blurted out. Instantly he stopped. He hadn't meant to reveal his heart condition, or even a hint of it. Not now. Not like this. Not ever. The kit's red eyes grew wide as the words left his mouth. The tiny cat froze, praying to--to what?--that they wouldn't ask. But he knew a question was inevitable.

[Blue the Bumblebee]

I'm sure. I can't let you tow go and just stay here. I'm going. she meowed, with confidince.
