As the sun was highest in the sky, a small, tom form slunk quietly about. He slowly trotted to the Ice Pool, his tail streaming behind him. WilyPaw had been cleaning out the elder's den all day and it was killing him. This heat will be the death of me.[/b] He thought bitterly. At last, he came to the Ice Pool. The apprentice slowly lowered himself into the frigid water's, feeling the cool releif flow about his body. WilyPaw looked up at the sound of pawsteps.

SaltyPaw walked over to WileyPaw, a small smile on his face, and a little hint of worry in his eyes. "How's it going WileyPaw?" He asked calm, cool, and collected as he placed one of his paws into the ice pool

WilyPaw raised his brow. "Hot." He replied cooly, slinking down further into the Ice Pool. "You." The desert-colored apprentice asked half-heartedly.

"Not to bad. Can't really complain" He meowed. "I saw you got stuck with the elders' all day. You still working in there because of the whole MistedPaw not becoming an apprentice thing?"

"Yeah. Almost over though." WilyPaw meowed. For a few moments he said nothing, then glanced back at SaltyPaw expectedly. "SaltyPaw, was their any particular reason for starting this conversation or what?"

"well yeah, I was just getting to that part actually. I wanted to talk to you about MistedPaw. I've noticed that you guys have gotten pretty close lately" He meowed as he gingerly placed another paw into the ice pool

WilyPaw twitched his ear. "Hm." He grunted. If his fur wasn't flatten against his body, SaltyPaw would've seen it bristling. "What about it? Did MistedPaw say something about me?" He forced his words to come out slowly.

SaltyPaw glared at WileyPaw, he knew that WileyPaw wasn't to happy about him interfering, but it was his sister and he was going to watch out for her. "No, she said she had a rather fun time, actually. I just wanted to warn you that if you hurt her in ANY way, emotionally or physically, I'll personally rip your fur out" He meowed his voice calm though his eyes betrayed his true feelings

"I wouldn't lay a claw on her." WilyPaw meowed, suddenly jumping up to glare at SaltyPaw in the eye. "And get a new threat, because you couldn't scare a duckling."

SaltyPaw sat down calmly. "Neither can you." He muttered. "Just watch out for my sister" He managed to hiss out.

WilyPaw narrowed his eyes. "What makes you think I'd hurt her?"

"I don't exactly think that you'd INTENTIONALLY hurt her, but she's a little soft, if you catch my drift" he meowed licking his paw and swiping it over his ear

WilyPaw huffed and turned his back to SaltyPaw, returning to his relaxation. "What, a rogue like me hurt a girl like that?" he snorted. The desert-colored tom sighed inwardly. "MistedPaw can take care of herself. She doesn't need anybody if she doesn't want them."

"It's always a possibility, and I want her to be safe... that's all I want is my sisters to be safe" He admitted

WilyPaw paused. "She's safe with me." He meowed at last. "No one's gunna hurt her."

SaltyPaw nodded " I believe you, much to my own amazement. Soooo when do you get off elder duty again?" He asked changing the subject. He felt much better now

WilyPaw shurgged. "I dunno. BlackStar'll probably tell me, or DestinyWinds." The tom was rather quiet now. I really liked and cared for MistedPaw, and SaltyPaw doubting him made him think about her.

"I'm surprised I didn't get any punishment. I actually started the whole thing" SaltyPaw mused finally giving up on getting in the pool slowly. He backed up a few paces and jumped in making a big splash

WilyPaw blinked away the water from his eyes. "Ya know, all my life I've had cat's doubting me. The rogues and loners I knew doubted me surviving. MysticClan cat's doubted me becoming an apprentice. Everyone doubts me making it to a warrior. But let me tell you something; You don't have to doubt me with MistedPaw. I take that seriously." He paused for a moment. "So...you do this often? Interrigating cat's over your sisters?"

"Don't take it personally.... it's not exactly you, I'd do it to any tom. So Yes, I do interrogate for my sisters benefit. " He meowed shaking his fur.

WilyPaw grunted. He took a breath and ducked under water, looking about the pebbled bottom of the Pool.

"You're not tooo terribly mad are you?" He asked. MistedPaw would be SOOO mad at him if he'd made WileyPaw to mad

WilyPaw resufaced with a decorative and eye-catching large pebble, just in time to catch SaltyPaws question. "Nah. It's alright." He carefully placed the stone on land, and dived back under.

"Cool!" He meowed "You're not so bad after all" He meowed jokingly, a friendly joke

WilyPaw smiled cooly. He returned with a few shells and some more pretty stones, before finally leaning back against the bank. "So any she-cats you like?"
