» WingClan, a chicken clan ЯР 'Fly with the breeze.

[Blue_Myst]

Moon's hardened brown eyes trailed over Wc, glancing at the river and the swan back to the sleeping tree.
It is for the best, she told herself, it is for the best. My time is over, my story all but used up.
She slowly walked down towards moss rock, her head bent slightly, a mixed half smile on her face.
She really wasn't sure if it was for the best or what, but once her mind was made up, she wouldn't back out.
It had been a long while now, wars, death, chicks and the growing of Wc, but as always, times were changing.

The wind prickled through Silver's feathers as a movement by the water caught her attention. It was a black bird with silver etching around the edges, staring over the clan in contemplation, as though some heavy issue weighed upon her mind. Tentatively, she approached, knowing that now was the time to know if WingClan was really for her, after all.

"Hi," Silver said nervously, lowering her head in what she hoped was a respectful position, minus the crown that would not stop flopping around. "My name is Silver. I was brought here by your medicine hen. I've been looking for you to ask if . . . if," she swallowed. "If I can join WingClan." Quickly, she added. "I'll do my best! I know nothing of living in the wild, but I want to learn. There's a lot I want to know about this place where chickens do not live in metal dens. Can I join?"​

Moon looked up from her daze at the new hen, she looked nervous, a lost hen a world grown to large to fast. She smiled and laughed silently for a moment, not at her, not at anyone in particular.
"Calm down, raise your head. We don't bow here, at least not often. We shall see. Silver, is it?"

Quickly Silver brought her head level with Moonstar's, and stared at her with a bit of confusion but also longing. "Yes, I am Silver," she tried to make her voice strong, with a mixture of confidence and yet submission. Delighted that she had done it well, in her own naive and nervous way, she gazed expectantly at the hen, though wishing she could say more. What possible advantage could she bring forward, or what daring feat would make Moonstar consider her proposal? There were none, and Silver knew it. "I . . . know I have nothing of immediate value to offer the clan," she admitted, though not shyly. "But I also know that I've seen things I never knew existed in the last day, and I think--I know--that each day I will learn more, and maybe even become of use to the clan." If only Silver could feel as brave as her words.

(aaaand missed Gerbil again xD And I wonder why I can't do those 250 word story challenges)​

"You will with time, we all start somewhere." reassured the tattered rooster, who was standing nearby, hiding his embarassment at his currently rather unsightly appearance by meeting her eyes respectfully with a soft smile.

 

[Gerbil]

Moon cocked her head at the rooster then looked back at the hen, "You will someday, don't worry. Come, I am going to snack on what ever I can find in food pile, join if you wish"

 

[Gerbil]

I tend to poof now and then! Sorry!

Studying french homework at this point in time.

Giving a quick sigh of relief, Silver smiled and nodded. At least Moonstar had not refused her outright! Although not a very good judge of character, Silver could at least see that flattery and leniency would not get her anywhere with the WingClan leader, and part of her was glad of that. "All I can do," she thought, both glad and unsure, "is to do my best to show her that I can learn." Even if she wasn't accepted, there was still the metal den to go back to, if only she could find it. The idea, however, once of happiness, now provoked misery.

Picking up her large feet, she followed Moonstar, determined to at least show the hen that she was sincere and not an enemy of the clan.

As she passed the rooster, Silver couldn't help but avert her eyes. From a passing hen she had finally learned what a "rooster" was, and now a mixture of mortification and discomfort overcame her every time she saw one, and couldn't help blushing. She only hoped her feathers were thick enough not to reveal her embarrassment.

(lol, no problem. Can't blame you for needing to concentrate!)

 

[Gerbil]

Moon pecked, kicked out a few of the berries that had gone past the point of no return and looked back at Silver. "Feel free to take what you wish"
