Ravenpaw sighed and stalked around him, sometimes she wondered if this tom was a little crazy. She shook her head and kept following him, "I'm used to breaking rules, this is no different" She said to him lightly as she padded to his side limping, "As long as whenever we get to where ever we are going you give me time to rest" She said, she wasn't supposed to be moving to much with her shoulder right now, but yea again she didn't exactly like to listen to the rules completelt.

Canyonpaw just chuckled at her words, glad to see some spark of livelihood inside the wounded cat. He slunk through the bushes, keeping his ears pricked for any sign of danger. His nose was to the ground, as if following a trail. Finally, he stopped at two, rather large rocks that seemed to pop up among the many trees and bushes. A tiny crevice, just enough for an apprentice to squeeze through was etched into those rocks, with curtains of lichen hanging down.
"C'mon this way! It's going to be dark so follow my scent,"he meowed to Ravenpaw carefully. Without hesitating, the tom brushed past the lichen and squeezed through the two rocks. He felt the stone scrap his fur as he managed to enter the dark, narrow cavern. He reached his tail back to touch Ravenpaw's neck lightly, checking she was there. Then he began to pad slowly, pawsteps careful as the ground began to slope downwards. He knew they were entering a tunnel, he just hoped Ravenpaw was okay with that.
After a few fox-lengths in the darkness, the ground began to gently slope upwards. Canyonpaw narrowed his eyes as he found a bit of sunlight streaming into the tunnel through an opening. The tan-furred tom quickened his steps, reaching the end of the tunnel. He poked his head out, checking if the coast was clear. Then the tom hauled himself out, gazing out into the beautiful scene.
"We're here,"he purred to Ravenpaw, hoping she liked what she saw.
The two cats were on a grassy plain, and below them was a field of colorful flowers.

Ravenpaw trailed after him softly, she sighed a bit, limping as she did, "Great" She meowed, "I'm right behind you" She uttered nonchalantly, in truth she wasn't afraid of the dark, she was more worried about her shoulder then anything else. She moved out slowly and eventually padded off lightly after him into the tunnel, squeezing through she winced a bit and then gasped a bit finally making it through she groaned in pain but kept moving, curiosity now getting the best of her as she wanted to know what was so important that he had to show her. Not many cats wanted to do stuff with her, he was the first... and she guessed that's why she was so curious about it. Slowly they came out at last and moved out slowly instead of hualing like Canyonpaw had. She moved carefully, wary of her shoulder and got out and then looked around. She gasped her icy blue eyes widened in shock upon seeing all the beautiful flowers, "W-Wow" She stammered surprised.

"You like it?"Canyonpaw meowed, his eyes glowing to see Ravenpaw in awe. He had the same reaction when he first found this place.
"I kinda stumbled upon this place when I chased a squirrel here,"he explained, gazing around the flower field, taking a deep breath to inhale the sweet, meadowy scent.
"It's kinda my secret place,"he mewed to her quietly, gazing into her eyes. He never really noticed, but her ice blue eyes were beautiful. He found himself staring at her and quickly looked away awkwardly before she noticed.
"So it'd be great if you could keep this place a secret. Just between you and me,"he meowed, trying to put on a teasing tone in order to cover up his awkward staring.

Ravenpaw stared, she heard his words, but they were just... distanced. She blinked and looked at him as he looked away, "Yea I'll keep it a secret" She said to him lightly, she looked at him, she never noticed how handsome he was, she swiftly looked away, "it's beautiful here... I'm impressed" She said, "This is... oh" She said and padded off into the flowers, she sniffed them gently and took in the smells. She smiled a bit and relaxed, she laid down in the flowers, her paws in the air. She gave a soft smile, completely forgetting that Canyonpaw was looking at her.

Canyonpaw found himself purring to see Ravenpaw so happy here. Suddenly, a playful gleam danced in his eyes and he bounded a few fox-lengths past Ravenpaw and whipped around, his upper body crouching low to the ground while his haunches was raised in the air, his tail wriggling playfully.
"Since this is our secret place, we can make it anyplace we want! We could both be warriors!"he yowled in excitement, standing up proudly, head held high as if pretending he was a great warrior.

"Warriors?!" Ravenpaw gasped, she rose up instantly, "I've always wanted to be a warrior... would it be allowed out here?" She asked curiously, she looked over at him quietly, and thought about it. "This is our... secret place" She uttered his words, surprised to hear the softness in her own voice, it was like she was back with Smallpaw, she missed those days where they dreamed to be great warriors and in fact... "You know... when I was a kit, me and my brother dreamed of making our own clan" She said out loud hardly realizing, "We wanted to call it Nightclan because of our mother Darknight, we wanted to name it after her..." She uttered to him.

"Of course! This is our place! We can be whatever we want!"Canyonpaw purred, tail waving happily.
"Then we shall be Nightclan! We are the most feared Clan in the forest!"Canyonpaw announced. The tom whirled around and bounded through the flower field, jumping onto a small stone. He turned and stood proudly, puffing out his chest.
"I am Canyonstar, and I declare myself leader of Nightclan! Does any cat challenge my leadership?"he yowled, as he glanced at Ravenpaw with playful, challenging eyes, as if waiting for her.

Ravenpaw smiled, when she was a little, her and her brother used to pretend they were Ravenstar and Smallshard, they were the most proud and fearsome clan of all, no one messed with them, they would spend the whole day battling cats that didn't exist, and sometimes they would switch roles, she was deputy and he would he leader, Smallstar and Ravenmoon. She didn't care that it was Canyonpaw now, she missed those days and it was nice to have them back. She smirked and jumped onto the rock and pushed him off easily avoiding hurting her shoulder, she puffed out her chest, "Excuse me, but I believe I am the leader around here" She said repling with a challenging voice, a tone in her voice and a look that danced in her eyes. "I challenge you anyday" She said flicking her tail.

Canyonpaw let out an exaggerated grunt as he felt himself tumble down the rock. Looking up, he spotted Ravenpaw taking her place. The tom let out a good-natured growl as he crouched low to the ground.
"You dare challenge the great Canyonstar?"he meowed in mock disbelief.
"Then we shall battle for the leadership!"
The apprentice lept at Ravenpaw, jumping right beside her on the rock. Careful not to aggravate her injured shoulder, Canyonpaw reared up on his hind legs, cuffing his front paws at Ravenpaw's ears.

Ravenpaw smirked at him, "That's right I dare to challenge, bring it on!" She barked and waited for it, he jumped up and pawed at her face and ears. She laughed lightly and looked at Canyonpaw, a lighter look in her icy blue eyes, she smiled at him and then pawed at his face in return with her one good paw, to make sure she didn't hurt the other one she sat down and moved up a bit so her paw was in the air and didn't hurt. She smiled and pawed at his face, "How do you like that?" She meowed in return softly, more soft then she wanted to.

"I say, you're gonig to have to do better to defeat me!"Canyonpaw bragged, flinching back as he felt Ravenpaw's paw bat at his muzzle. He thanked Starclan her claws were sheathed or that would've been a nasty blow.
The tom crouched down, lashing his tail and lept at Ravenpaw. He gave Ravenpaw a hearty headbutt to the flank, enough to push her off the rock but not enough to injure her. Then he lept down lightly, cuffing her ears.
"Take that!"he growled, grinning widely, his eyes shining playfully.

Ravenpaw smiled a bit more, she had her claws away because she didn't want to actually hurt him despite the fact she very well could hurt him... badly if she wanted to. But she was a medicine cat, her job was to heal not hurt. She pawed at his face lightly, and then gasped as he leapt at her and knocked her off the rock she rolled over and used her paw to hit him again as he batted her ears, her tail waved back and forth gently as she looked up at him with her dazzling icy blue eyes. He was a nice tom... nice indeed.

"Oof!"Canyonpaw grunted, feeling Ravenpaw roll from his tackle earlier, resulting her in somewhat squashing him as she pummled his ears.
"I surrendur!" he wailed, pretending to sound pitiful. He staggered to his paws, head down and tail low, as if in defeat.
"I cannot defeat the mighty Ravenmoon!"he declared. The tom straightened up and meowed to the skies.
"From my defeat, it is clear Ravenmoon shall be the new leader of Nightclan. I, Canyonstar, previous leader of Nightclan, withdraw from my position as leader and will entrust it to the new leader Ravenstar!"the tan-furred tom announced, pretending to do a ritual. He touched his nose to Ravenpaw's head, just like a regular warrior ceromony.
"You have been granted nine lives by Starclan! Serve the Clan well"he added, eyes flashing in excitement as he pretened to be a Starclan warrior giving Ravenpaw her nine lives.
Though some part of Canyonpaw's mind realized they were acting like kits, it was fun to be around her like this.

Ravenpaw smirked as she beat him ever so lightly, she stood up and proudly moved onto the rock, She smiled at him when he touched her head wth his nose, "I will serve this clan till the day I die" She said to him softly, she smiled lightly, "As Ravenstar I appoint you as my deputy" She said to him lightly, "Starclan has approved my choice" She giggled, She knew she was like a kit but she couldn't help it, for the first time in a long time she was happy, she was having fun... but of course out here she could be Ravenstar, she could be a warrior, she could be.. a Queen if she wanted to be! But at camp she was confined... forced to be someone she's not. She looked at Canyonpaw, "Thank you" She muttered to him.
