Rock's paws had left the pine needles long ago, and had now been walking along the wet sand of Rising Stream's territory. They had been friends since they had met, and he was sure she wouldn't be mad if she found out that is newly made tribe was trekking through her territory to get to his. He knew exactly where he was going, he had traveled this path so many times he could do it with his eyes closed. He was going to the den he had lived in until Tall Pine had came into the forest and changed his life forever. He was returning home again, but this time with a large group of cats following him. The sandy ground gave way to a death drop, a cliff of sheer stone dropping down to a raging river what seemed like a sky-length below. Though to the normal cat's eye, it seemed impassable. But he knew the territory like the back of his paw. Quickly, he spotted the fallen ash tree and padded over to it, jumping onto the log and facing his group. "Everybody, cross this ash tree carefully! If you fall, you die. Sharpclaws carry smallpaws! On the other side is our new home," Rock announced, grabbing the scruff of Ferret Fang, his son, and walking across the fallen tree. The extremely stale and just barely detectable scent of his old border markers filled his nose, and he couldn't help but smirk. This was his home, and he was leading his tribe here. Once everyone had safely crossed, he put his son down and continued walking through the territory. The familiar feel of hard rock underneath his paws caused chills through his body, and sent pride flowing through his veins. Subconsciously, his paws found footholds in the steep hills of stone, and several times he had to wait for the rest of his tribunates to catch up. But he knew that in a few moons, every cat here would be able to move through the rocky hills just as easily. Soon, they reached the small dip in the ground that he had called his den. Immediately, he realized that this would only fit three or four cats, not his whole tribe. "Cats of the tribe! We have reached out new home. Before nightfall, I will find a place for us to call camp, but for now we will rest here," Rock explained to his tribe, looking up at the sky. It was already past sun high, and a small bit of worry nagged at him, telling him they wouldn't be able to find a camp in time.

Misty Frost was walking with the tribe. She did miss her life with the others but after all that had happened, she was happy that there is a promised place to call home. She settled herself in an area apart from the whole group. "I miss you Smallfire. I hope I get to see you someday..." she whispered. The she-cat sighed as she looked up at the sky with droopy, different-colored eyes. Sleep soon took over her. A nap wouldn't be bad right?

Silent Hail walked alongside his companions. The quiet tom was in his thoughts. He took a spot near where Rock was and settled down to rest his paws. ___________________ Ferret Fang ran around his father with a puffed tail. "Dad, where can I sleep?" he asked with a pout.

The curly haired tom followed his new leader with determination. Ice's Stone trusted in all his decisions over everything. He was wise, sharp and knew exactly what to say. His eyes looked at the burned tree, analyzing how he should cross it after Rock did. Picking a Smallpaw, the Sharpclaw crossed the tree quickly and then left the small cat on the ground, ready to continue his travel to the new home of the Tribe.
While he was walking through the hard rocks, climbing some hills, he noticed how much Rock knew about this place. He moved swiftly, knowing exactly where they were going. The tom smirked with confidence. Now he was more than sure that the brown tom was leading them to a safe home... a home he knew in the past.
Ice´s Stone's ears flicked when he listened to new orders of the leader. Even if he was starting to get tired, the blue point cat approached Rock looking at him seriously. "Is there anything I can do to help you, Rock?" The Sharpclaw wanted to be the best support for the just-made Tribe and he knew he could accomplish working as much as he could. After all, these cats were his new home and family... he must protect that.

Jagged Claw lumbered behind his tribe. His stoic expression burning thier pelts from the back. The tom was heavily battle scarred but they were not recent. He had aquired his injuries ages ago. He was blind from his right eye with two scars going over his eye, he had a limp and several cuts on both of his ears. Scars littered the massive Sharpclaw, telling the tales of his experiences as a rogue and loner. He chose to follow Rock, beliveing he was the strongest of the four tribe leaders. Once they got to thier resting place, he went straight to Sandy Brook to ask if there was something to take away the pain of the joints in his legs. "Sandy Brook, can you give me something for this joint pain? It's driving me mad!" he growled.

Sandy Brook looked to Jagged Claw as he limped his way toward her. All his old injuries like the scars and the limp may never go away but she can help soothe them. She quickly went to look for some daisy leaves as it was easy to find and effective to soothe joint pain. Once she found the white flower, she took some from where they grew and headed back to where she told the sharpclaw to stay. The healer placed the plants down delicately and began to chew them into a paste that could be applied. "Jagged claw, I want you to stay still for a moment." she ordered softly. The she-cat began to apply the paste to the tom's joints with a steady paw. "There, now rest. I know you're still young and wanting to move around a lot but due to your old injuries never healing properly, you may experience pain here and there. I advise you to lay down for a few. It wouldn't hurt to take some time off." The young she-cat left the sharpclaw to rest. She decided it was best to see if any others were having some pain in their paws or any other place.

"You may rest for a little while, Ice's Stone. You have been so helpful to me the last few days that you deserve some down time," Rock informed the curly furred tom, proud that after all this walking, some of his tribe members were still determined to keep helping out. His focus turned to Ferret Fang, as his son's fluffy tail hit his own skinny one. The little tom really did get all of his looks from his mother and none from his father, with his brightly colored pelt and fluffy fur. Purring, he directed the Smallpaw to a small clump of moss in the sun. "You can sleep here for now. Soon we will find a more permanent den." With that, he settled down upon a rock that was higher up than the others and laid down, with a good view over the rest of his tribe. Once he was satisfied with how everyone was doing, he let sleep take him.
(Time skip)
The leader woke a little while later, realizing he had slept longer than he had intended the light the sun provided was already starting to dim slightly, and he knew they needed to find a camp soon. He jumped to his paws and shook the dust out of his pelt, scanning the group of cats for who he could take with him. "Misty Frost, Silent Hail, and Ice's Stone, come with me to find our new camp. Meet me at the base of this rock. Sandy Brook, you are in charge of making sure the Smallpaws are okay." With those orders, he jumped off of the rock and waited for the cats he had selected to join him.

Silent Hail nodded at Rock's order. The quiet sharpclaw got up and walked over to where he was told to meet. He wondered where they would even start to look.

Russet dawn walked up to Ferret fang with a shy smile. "Hi! Do you wanna play?" she asked the tom. The kit was curious of Ferret Fang. Even though she was shy, she didn't mind being around other kits.

Snow Pond watched the other cats from her resting place, tired from the journey here.

Following his leader's instructions, the Sharpclaw rested on the top of a sunny rock, trying to sleep but he couldn't at all. He could only think about his new home and how much he needed it so it was impossible for him to sleep like that.
His tail flicked excited when Rock called him once again. Standing up and jumping from the rock, Ice's Stone approached the meeting place, greeting Silent Hail with a quiet and respectful nod. The curly haired tom liked him because he didn't speak too much, just like him and he believed that he was a loyal and admirable Sharpclaw.

Misty Frost quickly jumped up when her name was called. She dashed to the rick where she was told to meet. "I'm here." she announced. The she-cat gave a respectful nod to each of the others that were to go.

"Thank you for joining me, follow me in a few moments," he explained, addressing the small group he had assembled. Then, to the rest of the tribe, he continued. "Snow Pond and Jagged Claw, you may hunt if we are not back by sundown." After waiting a few moments to make sure his words had registered, he nodded to the Sharpclaws that had joined him and trotted out of camp, flicking his skinny tail slightly. He knew the territory pretty well already, so he knew where not to look. The hill tops were too flat, the grove was too confusing, High Water was dangerous, so that left the rock slopes on the side of the bigger hills. His pace was quicker than it had been that morning, so pretty quickly they were able to arrive at the large hill that the leader had in mind. Its side was cover in large rocks, and though he had never found one, there must be someplace there that had enough den sized crevices for an entire tribe. His gray gaze searched the hillside, but he realized that it would take the four of them spanning out across the entire hill to find the right place in time. "I'll search the back of the hill, Ice's Stone can search the side where the sun rises, Misty Frost can search the side where the sun sets, and Silent Hail can search the side we are currently looking at." After giving his orders, the grayish brown tom trekked his way to the back of the hill, searching for a place big enough for his entire tribe to call home.
OOC: Misty Frost can find their camp now

Misty Frost walked on the direction she was told to go. The she-cat was scouting out and making sure that everything was safe to lead the tribe here. As she passed another large hill, the sharpclaw spotted one that was very different. There was a rocky cove in the front. It had large rocks runnning down one side as if there was once a rockslide that occured.
The she-cat hurried to take a better look at it. In between each rock there was more than enough room for each den. The "camp" was also hard to get to but easy enough for the tribe so that added protection. She nodded to herself. This was going to be their home. She made sure that the space between the rocks was not occupied by unwanted critters and predators. Once all the spaces were checked and deemed safe, she hurried back to the starting place.
"Rock, Silent Hail, Ice's Stone, I've found a place! It looks big enough and safe enough to house the tribe!"
