Amberbird and his mate Plot - he'll be running away from his clan soon to live as a kittypet. Though the clan won't realize this as he'll be "captured" by two twolegs. While out gathering herbs with his apprentice, a (badger, fox, or raccoon) will attack the two cats. They separate in their scramble to get away from the creature and to safety. Amberbird runs towards the nearby twoleg nest and jumps the fence in order to escape, his apprentice witnesses this act and then later believes the twolegs are keeping him captive when he still doesn't come back the following day. In the twoleg nest, he's allowed inside through the cat door and falls for the she-cat that lives there. He'll stay a whole moon before returning to his clan for good. This is his idea life, being a kittypet with no responsibilities, but then he decides he doesn't actually want it and returns home when a FallClan patrol arrives to save him. He later returns to visit the she-cat and will continue to do so. It takes a moon before he is finally able to escape to see her again but when he does it's to find she's birthed his kits. The kittypet will send a few of their kits back with him and he will claim that they are the kittypet's who cared for him in his time of capture by the twolegs and that she wants them to experience the clan life he described while he was living with her. (kind of a combination of Cloudtail, Firestar's nephew, and Leafpool's stories if that makes sense). So for this plot, I need a kittypet she-cat that will be his mate and raise the other half of his litter.
Amberbird was out gathering herbs, collecting as many as he could since he was low thanks to the apprentice exchange that just finished. "Make sure you get plenty of catnip, Chestnutpaw. We're out back at the den." They were close to the twoleg's nest and he kept a close eye on it. He didn't care so much about the kittypets or the twolegs themselves, but the dogs that tended to get out sometimes. Somedays he thought about jumping over the twoleg fence and not coming back. But then he couldn't bring himself to actually do it. What would the clan think? Or his sisters? No, he couldn't do that. But maybe....
While he was distracted and deep in thought, a dog, just as he feared, had escaped its fence. It came rushing at the two cats gathering herbs. The only warning was the growling the beast gave out before it got close.
Passionpaw was not happy he had been assigned to patrol with Amberbird. He was a warrior apprentice and he needed to work on his fighting moves, not chase after plants. Sure, medicine cats were important and worthy of respect, yeah yeah - he understood that, but if he didn't nail down the latest technique he'd been taught, Jayjack would hang him from a tree by his tail.
The white tom flipped over a stone with his paw, kicking it absently as he waited for Amberbird. A rush and a growl alerted him and his head snapped up to see a dog coming their way. "Amberbird, run!" he yowled, yellow eyes flying wide. He stood frozen, watching it charge their way.
strawberrycupid I asked cleav to step in for turtle so we could get the plot going
The tom didn't hesitate to make a break for it, didn't need the command from the apprentice either. Originally he set out towards camp, but the dog circled around him having spotted him first and given chase. There was no way he could lead the beast back that way, towards home. Kits, queens, elders, all of them would be in danger. So he turned, rounded around a tree, and headed towards the twoleg nest. He spared a glance at the apprentice that'd been with him and hoped they'd do something, anything!
Passionpaw could only watch as the dog reached them, and it might have been his death if it wasn't chasing Amberbird. His heartbeat raced as he was finally released from his paralysis and took off after the pair. "Not toward the camp!" he yowled as he raced parallel to the border, his breathing coming in quick nervous pants. As the medicine cat reached him again, he saw the desperation in his gaze. He had to do something. He was a warrior.
"Keep going and hide," he huffed as he started to slow down. "I'll distract it."
Where was he supposed to hide?!? There was nowhere close but the twoleg. The trees were all back toward camp and there was no way he could go that way. Glancing once more at the patrol he'd come with, Amberbird made his decision, one he never thought he'd actually make. He jumped the fence. A dream, a fantasy, but never a reality until now. The grey tabby had always wondered what life was like on this side of the fence, to not have to be a clan cat. He was here now, and honestly, he didn't know how he felt.
strawberrycupid Cleaver so you can play this out however you want, either have passionpaw escape somehow and come back later and with another patrol and sit around waiting for Amberbird, or just sit around in camp in another thread and be all like "he's not back yet?" and we can tag Eve in that thread and get this rolling where he's MIA for a little while. You're choice. If you wanna do the patrol that comes back and investigates we can do it as he heads home, time skipped to after the dog has disappeared, and Seablossom joins the patrol and they come back and scavenge the area. Maybe it starts to rain so they have no idea what to do but to wait now.

Berry was doing what she did on most days, sunning herself. Their twoleg was super nice, building a little enclave for the pair of kittypets to sun themselves in without the harm of anything like dogs or other cats injuring them. The red cat jumped when she heard claws scramble against the fence and the roar of barking from beyond it. She couldn't do much behind this wire fence, but she jerked from her sunning spot and climbed down to face the tom that just jumped over the fence. "Oh my goodness. Are you okay?" It was a little strange to be out here alone, she was normally always with her twoleg-mate, Honey. But somehow she wasn't woken up by all the commotion.
Amberbird was startled to find another cat over here. His breath came out in pants and his heart raced from the deadly moment he’d just escaped. All he could do at the moment was stare at the pretty she-cat before him. “N-no...dog..hiding...” The gray tabby kept gazing between her and the fence he’d just scrambled over. It’s be soem time still before his heart quieted after the mess he’d just escaped. The tom practically flopped down where he was, out of breath and still reaping from what just happened.

"The dogs are playing hide and seek?!" Berry's red tail wagged above her. Amberbird fell in front of her, leaving her little choice but to drink the gray tabby in. Yeah, he was cute. As the Medicine Cat laid there panting, Berry climbed up the structure around her. A little clattering later and she came back down with her water dish. It was mostly full, now splashing everywhere as she put it down in front of him. "Here. You gotta get back into the game if you wanna find them." Berry said with a purr before spilling more of the water over, letting it pool past the fence.
"Not, not really what we're doing." He stared at the cat, confused but chalked it up to kittypet ways. Maybe the dogs on their side were more friendly. Maybe it's because he's "wild" cat and not a tamed one like this pretty one before him. "Thank you for the water. And allowing me to hang out here. I'm afraid that the dog and I aren't getting along though." Amberbird sat up, finally getting his breath back and actually attempted to clean himself up so he didn't look a total mess before the pretty she-cat before him. "I take it you live here."

"Yeah, I know hide and seek can be deadly. You should have seen the fight Honey and I had when she found me and surprised me so bad, I fell in the toilet." Berry laughed, reminiscing briefly. She didn't pay too much attention to him putting himself together. The red somali let out a purr, "Yep. I live here with Honey and our owner. Where are you from? I don't think I've seen you around here."
(My bad!!! Thought I’d replied to this but guess I didn’t) strawberrycupid
Toilet? What’s a toilet? Maybe it’s a toy? Or the name of their water source? Amberbird gazed at her with a look of confusion trying to figure out what a toilet was. For that reason, it took him a moment to realize she’d asked a question. “FallClan. Have you heard of it?” Maybe she hadn’t and he could be the first to tell her of clan life. Or she had and he would have to hide his position for FallClan least she treat him differently. “It’s one of the many clans of the forest. Not too far from here but still a good ways from your home for me to have never stopped by before.” He made it sound like he’d have wanted to be here if he could have. And truthful he has. The grey tom has always dreamed about life as a kittypet, wondering what’s it’s like. And now, now he could have that. As long as she has no idea what he did and believed him to be a random warrior. Maybe...maybe he could be someone completely different than who he was in FallClan. A new him. One not so scared, not so timid, not so well known.

"Fall...clan? Weird name. Do you guys have like a Tripclan, Stumbleclan and a Toppleclan too??" Sure enough, Amberbird had little to worry about. Berry had pretty much been a kittypet most of her life. Before she was picked up by the trashman, she was a stray. And she barely remembered life as a stray cause her owner found her so young. The memory made her purr. "What's some clan cat doing all the way out here? Couldn't you have ran to your clan for help from that dog?" Granted, the dog was gone now.
strawberrycupid so anyway in particular you want this to go down from here?
"Um..no, we don't. Have you not heard of the clans? The cats who live in the forest? Our territories are massive so getting from one end to the other takes a little while, and besides that, I wouldn't want to take a dog back to camp where kits and elders live. Everyone would be in danger, you see." Amberbird spoke calmly but with curiosity. How naive this cat was to the dangers of the forest, to the dangers of clan life. It seemed like such sweet bliss to him. Oh, how he wished he could call this place home......Maybe he could? FallCaln could believe that he was taken in by the twolegs, he didn't have to leave right away. Though he would have to return someday, at least long enough to finish Chestnutpaw's training and to prove to Seablossom eh was alright. StarClan above, he could just imagine how worried his older sister was.

(not really)
"Nah, never really cared." Berry pulled at a stray hair from her ear, wincing as she got it and threw it away. They were supposed to be cool and all, and every other kittypet just talked about how cool they were. So she ended up not really caring till this clan cat showed up. He was somewhat rugged, could definitely use a bath. Her ears suddenly swiveled back as she seemed to hear something. "Oh, my owner is back."
(ok would you like to time skip to him having been there a few days then?)
Amberbird tensed at those words, eyes darting towards the door where a twoleg was opening it to let Berry back in. It spoke, he didn't understand the words and wasn't sure he wanted to. The twoleg disappeared and then reappeared with a can in hand. Just what was going on? "Um...Berry, what's..what's your twoleg doing?"
Post by strawberrycupid on Oct 13, 2020 13:29:42 GMT -5
(sure)
He came back in coveralls, sweat beading along his brow. Scratching his other cat behind the ears a bit, he stepped out to find Berry interacting with a wild cat. A little scrawny, definitely beat up. Not that Berry seemed to care, always too friendly for her own good. Stepping back for a moment, he came back out with a can of food. Berry immediately turned around, almost forgetting Amberbird as she stretched up to paw at her twoleg. "Food. Food. Give me food. Wet food is the best. I want food." She meowed, but the twoleg just cracked open the can before sliding it underneath the fence.
"What!!" Berry sounded defeated, running over to paw at it but was caught by the twoleg. "Aww, man. He gave you the good stuff. You better have more." Berry went limp in his arms, the twoleg laughing and scratching at her chest. He began to carry her back inside. "Well, enjoy your food, Fallclan guy. Bye." was all she got out before the glass door shut.
Amberbird stayed in that yard for days to come, constantly feed by the twoleg who appeared and hanging out with Berry. She'd become pleasant, a friend...more like a crush really. She was the key to a whole other world, and for him it was perfect. Spoiled, papered, scratched on the back, it was just perfect. The life he'd always dreamed of. All it took was jumping the fence after fleeing from a doing, who knew it was that easy? Well, guess he did, he just never had the courage to actually do it. Sitting at the door, waiting for Berry to come out and play, to relax, to just spend time with each other, the tom thought about how his life had been. A struggle, a legacy to live up to, a life he never wanted. But, the only one he'd even known, the world he was comfortable with deep down inside. But he was growing to like this one, just as he'd grown to have a crush on Berry, had even started stuttering with her around. It was like he was an apprentice again! First few moons on the road to becoming a medicine cat or even when he'd been a warrior apprentice.
