This cat was crazy, she was nothing without her eyeliner. But she
greeted him anyway. "Nice to meet you, Mr. I meet people by running
into them." She winked, meaning it all in good fun. "My name is
Luna sparkle, but you can call me Luna or Sparkle or whatever."
Alex...she hadn't met him before...was he a newcomer? She'd have to
ask Conan...she wondered if Purrcilla knew this cat, or if she was
just loosing her focus with the recent peace of mind before the
dragon attacks.
Lyra was walking around the fortress to see if any of the cats she
adventured with yesterday were anywhere to be seen. She just hoped
that she could make some new friends today, or have fun with the
others. She wondered were everyone was, it seemed kinda empty to
her.
Out of nowhere appeared a slim, dark cat. Hi, I’m Shadow, he says
in a low, quiet voice. I saw you in the woods the other day. Could
you get me in the guild? I’ve been training for this for a very,
long time. Ill even donate an ember to the guild treasury or
whatnot. I’m great at scouting, if you guys have a use for
scouting.
"Do you know of anywhere in the guild where something cool is
happening today?" Alex asked. "I'm new, I just went on my first
quest yesterday, and I don't really know my way around..." He
stated, confirming what Luna was probably thinking. Wow, one of the
first cats who he hadn't argued with yet? Cool!
"Sure! But you will have to prove yourself if you want the leader
to aprove of you completely. Follow me" She guided with her tail
for him to follow her. There were so many new recruits lately that
she wondered how this one would fit in?
Luna nodded. "I suppose I could give you a quick tour." As she said
this, she sparkled again. At rhis point the other Guild members had
accepted it, but she had no idea how Alex would react, but she
couldn't help it. She began making her way around. She started with
the cauldron, where Morrigan and Kyle could usually be found trying
out their alchemy, but they hadn't woken up yet, so it was
abandoned now. "This here is the cauldron." She pointed at the
boiling cauldron just passed the the questboard. "And that cart
down there," She pointed at the cart on the right of it, "is the
market trading cart. Trade you materials for currency of other
types. Helpful when someone in the marketplace in town wants
specific materials."
"Oh, thats perfect!" Alex had been thinking of other ways to get
money, and he wanted to visit a town at some point to maybe buy
some supplies. He could sell supplies for more than they were worth
if someone wanted them exclusively. Alex had noticed Luna's odd
colouration and how hard fur sparkled. Alex was indeed curious, but
maybe it had to do something with evolution? He didn't know.
But this was Luna in her first stage, she was just born like this.
She turned around and pointed at the other side of the clearing.
"Over there, you'll find the fortress and the crafting area. It's
where you go if you want to grab the free materials we have a
constant supply of, wood, metal, and cloth. Linger over there and
tend to the plants, and you can stock up within a day, just decide
what you'd rather spend the day doing." Luna then began lazily
strolling over there. "That's your tour." She wanted to find
Purrcilla or Silver. Maybe they'd go on a quest with her.
Miko went out with her sneaky-skilled friends and went to the
harvest area, gathering the nights crops before retreating to the
fortress to discuss the days plans more. Miko already knew she
would be going on a quest with Molotov today. She was so excited!
she hardly felt wary of the previous day's trouble.
Silver poked her head out of the fortress and looked around. She
had got word of new recruits, and was wholly interested to meet
them. She hoped they'd want to meet her. She noticed Luna Sparkle
with strange Ginger cat, and bounded over. "Hello!" Please be cool,
please don't be one of her sister's type...please please please say
hi!
Alex nodded at Luna. "Thank you! You probably have places to go
now... see you around!" He was still taking it in. FREE items? Back
when he was a kitten, he would have been lucky to get a free food
scrap! This place was rich!
Alex noticed a white she cat come up to him. "Hi! Need anything?"
He paused. "Sorry, I'm new... I probably won't be able to help, but
I can do my best. How are you?" He begain playing with a small
fireball like he usually did when he was bored or nervous (in this
case he was both)
Purrcilla had just gotten up and was looking for Luna and Silver.
When she spotted Luna she went over to her and said. "Hi, hows your
day been" She was hoping that today she could go shopping in town
with Luna and Maybe Silver. She had gathered up her 1000 coins and
hoped that Luna would respond.
"Oh. I don't need anything from you. I heard you were new and
wanted to meet you! I'm Silver." The angelic looking cat was pretty
much the opposite of Miko, glowing, social, and wasn't wingless,
even though her wings were small and chubby, and could only keep
her airborne certain distances. She hoped the newcomer was
friendly, as he looked definitely interesting.
Luna saw Purrcilla. "Hi. My day's been going good so far. My
eyeliner is looking good, so all is well. I take it you're doing
better as well?" She didn't mention the name, but you could tell
what Luna Sparkle was referring to. She didn't want Francis to keep
shutting her BFF down, it was rude!
Alex observed Silver. She had white fur and wings (Miko would
probably be envious), and seemed optimistic. He wanted to know more
about this cat. "I'm Alexander, but I go by Alex, or Lex if you
want to." He looked at his scruffy fur. He had'nt groomed since...
2 days ago. Besides, it was the perfect chance to slip in a pun.
"Sorry, my fur looks like a CATastrophe." He joked, wanting to see
what the cat would say (you could tell a lot about others by their
reactions to puns).
"Ha! Your funny!" Her little wings fluttered as her body shook from
her laughing. She had no idea why Miko put up with her, but she was
one of the few cats outside the sneaky skill that got along with
her. Looking at Silver, you couldn't tell she was half demon as
well, unless you looked at her weapon.
Purrcilla looked at her and said. "I was thinking that maybe we
could have lunch together with Silver maybe, it's just so nice and
I thought we would all enjoy it" Not wanting to say to much more
she just asked. "So can we?" She looked into Luna's eyes and waited
for her to respond.
Alex laughed too (laughs were contagious). Maybe this wouldn't be
so bad after all. Yesterday went badly, but today was already going
a lot better. After all, just after the coldest season comes the
spring. "I was just going to check out the town... want to join
me?" He tilted his head in question.
Luna smiled. "Sure! wanna go out today? You'd be choosing, since it
is your idea!" Luna knew that Silver would agree to come when she
was invited, and it was good to see Purrcilla happy again. Also,
lunch didn't sound too bad. Maybe they could go on patrol in the
town while they were at it. Kill two birds in one pounce, as they
say.
Silver perked up. "Could my friends come? Luna Sparkle and
Purrcilla? I haven't seen them yet this morning as I stopped to
talk to you. You'd like them, I'm sure. I guess it depends on
whether or not you think we girls have cooties." She winked at
Alex.
Alex's ears perk up. "Luna? She just gave me a tour of the guild, I
think, if we're talking about the same luna that is." He pasued,
remembering the original question. "Yeah, that would be great! Can
we stop at the market on the way to lunch though?" Alex wanted to
find a proper weapon, or at least donate, or get a little money so
that he got some physical use out of the trip. "And eh, really I
don't care about gender."
Amberstorm stretched as she got out of the box she had been in. She
looked around, unsure of what to do next.
Skye shook herself and looked around. She thought the place looked
pretty nice but figured there was more things that could be
changed. She hoped that not many cats tried to greet her since she
wasn't sure how she would feel about that.
(I hope this is alright. I wasn't sure how I was going to start.)
"Well then lets go find Silver she should be around here somewhere"
Purrcilla started looking for Silver with the help of Luna. Then
she saw her across the clearing, she was with one of the new cats,
Alex thought Purrcilla. So she trotted over to her and
asked. "Do you want to go get lunch with us" And waited for her to
respond.
Following Lyra, Shadow walked towards the fortress. Wow! He
exclaimed! I’ve never seen the fortress from up close before! Could
you give me a tour? I’m so exited to become part of the guild.
Deep inside, Shadow was a bit apprehensive, but he was sure that
the guild would accept him. After all, he had been training a long
time for this, and he was sure that the guild needed his tracking
skills.
