Sekine wandered around through the forest occasionally parting his jaws to taste the air for any scents of prey or danger. He hadn't ever been close to any of the cats in the Tribe and since his parents had gone missing after the fire he had nobody. At the moment he was looking for a place to shelter. The air promised a big storm coming soon and he wanted to find a place to shelter.

Aratona was bounding easily through the branches from tree to tree until an somewhat familiar scent met her nose. It definatly was a tom and it belonged to the tribe but she didn't know who it was. Jumping as quietly as she could she followed it untill she saw a dappled brown tom. Something about his manner made him seem urgent and sorrowful. Quickly making up her mind to confront him she jumped down from the tree and landed right in front of him. "Hello, I'm Aratona what's your name?"

Sekine leaped far back and hissed in surprise. His fur fluffed up so he looked twice his size, his claws slid out and he arched his back. He tried to get his mind to think straight and he tried to slow his heartrate. After a few moments rest he had calmed himself down enough to speak. "First off PLEASE don't scare me like that again, and second off I'm Sekine."

Aratona flattened her ears as he looked hostile but they perked back up as soon as he had calmed down "sorry I have a bad habbit of that. Sekine... I like that name. So why do you seem to be in a hurry Sekine?"

Sekine paused before replying. He wasn't sure if he could trust this cat even though she seemed friendly enough. He gave her a look over and was impressed by her. Shaking his head to clear the last of those thoughts he meowed his response "I was looking for some shelter before the storm broke."

Aratona lifted her head and saw massive storm clouds building. "Oh wow.... I didn't realize that a storm was building up. Serves me for not paying attention. That's unlike me.." She muttered to herself then she turned to Sekine "I know a nearby little cave that we can shelter in before the storm breaks." She gave him a quick look over and she noticed he looked a little thin "We can grab some of the freshkill that i had buried on our way there." She began to walk off in the direction of the caves before turning to him and mewing "You coming or not?"

Sekine wasn't sure at first but he felt a strange urge to trust this cat. "I'm coming" He quickly caught up to her and let her lead the way to the caves. The first raindrop fell on his nose and he heard a distant rumbling. He quickly picked up the pace but tried not to go in front of her not knowing the way to the caves.

Aratona's ear twitched as a raindrop landed on her ear. She came to the spot where she had buried her prey and quickly digging it up she continued to pad along untill she had set the pace at a sprint. Finally the two cats reached the caves and Aratona slipped through the slightly tight gap into a area that opened up and was the perfect size for two cats. She set most the fresh kill off the the side but picked out a shrew and sat down to begin eating it.

Sekine bounded rapidly behind Aratona until they reached the caves. He slipped into the cave and sat down beside her. The cave was rather small so his pelt brushed hers. He gazed longlingly at the freshkill in the corner but shook his head softly before turning his head to give his fur a thorough wash. "So what were you doing out in the forest? I haven't scented you around this place before but I'm fairly new here so you may have come before."

Aratona saw his longing gaze and pushed a fat vole to him. "Eat it I can always catch another one." She decided to give her pelt a wash too before replying " I guess I was just doing some more exploration." She gazed outside at the pouring rain and murmered half to herself "Oh please let this storm be quick I don't want to worry everyone."
