Some of the green leaf leaves were slowly drifting to the ground. Mistfrost had spent six moons in the nursery, and hadn't left camp since. It felt good to finally stretch her legs and get of the camp. She had almost forgotten what the territory looked like outside of the nursery. Now that Goldenkit and Silverkit were coming close to being apprenticed, that meant she was finally able to leave camp again.
She told her mate,Cardinalwing, to meet up with her soon after he was finished with his patrol. Surely the sun high patrol was back by now, right? That meant he should be back soon, so he could go and take a walk with her. Mistyfrost and Cardinalwing hadn't spent much time together since she became a queen. This would be the day that they actually had some time together without any sort of bother.

Cardinalwing settled down by the fresh-kill pile. Mistyfrost, his mate, had asked him to spend time with her after his patrol. He would have come right away, but, unfortunately, the patrol had met a WindClan patrol 'dangerously' close to the Thunderpath, and had been ordered to attack. Yeah, dangerously. As in three foxlengths away from their side of the border.
He took a squirrel from the pile, and paused for a moment, and looked at the russet coat of the squirrel. It was young, and had probably run over from the ThunderClan side of the border. Cardinalwing noted that it had a splintered leg, probably from a clumsy cat stepping on it in the fresh-kill pile. That meant it had probably been there for at least a day, but it was still good to eat. Taking a few bites, Cardinalwing tasted something foul from they prey, and flipped it over.
Of course, maggots. Some stupid apprentice's idea of a prank.
And he had just taken a few bites of it. As of on cue, the warrior's belly felt as though it was bleeding a slow, painful dead. Better go to Ivyscar about that...
Three doses of watermint later, Cardinalwing stepped out of the medicine cat's den and walked over to where Mistyfrost would probably be. He dipped his head in greeting, slightly embarrassed for being late, and muttered, "Sorry. Bad fresh-kill."

Mistyfrost stared up at the trees, wondering where Cardinalwing was. Maybe something happened while he was out on patrol? She hoped not. The forest was currently at peace, and she wanted it to stay that way. A war was something she didn't want at the moment. No, not at all.Moments later, he finally showed up and she purred, greeting him with licks on the faces and more purrs. She was glad to finally see him. "Cardinalwing!" she said, happily. "Oh, that's ok. I'm just glad you're here now."
