Duskfeather did not hesitate a moment in attacking her cherry pie, and it was gone in moments, leaving a very satisfied tabby licking her lips. "As delicious as it always is," she purred, hopping back into Luke's lap.
Sparrowpaw decided it was safe to eat the pie stuff when Duskfeather didn't drop down dead either, and she took a piece with her hands, stuffing it gingerly into her mouth. The sensations of taste that flooded through her mouth made her close her eyes for a moment. "This is absolutely delicious!" was the only thing she said before she went for the rest of the pie.

"Everyone dies eventually. Once you are born, you begin to die."
"That was not comforting either!"
"It is the way of the Creed. Usually our deaths are violent but quick."
Shadepaw watched the others dig into their food so he decided to go right ahead. Poking at the food on his plate he shrugged and began eating. Being alittle messy with the food he licked his licks and wiped it off with his hands. If only he could eat like this ALL the time! He thought as he gobbled down more of his food.
Hawkpaw watched his cousin and at her approval he dove head first in to his own piece. Just as they all said, it was fantastic. He had never tasted anything like it. It was sweet like honey but had its own flavor and tang. He squirmed a little in his seat as he turned bright golden eyes toward Luke, "How in Starclan's name did you catch something like this?"
Luke rolled his eyes and eagerly accepted Duskfeather back in to his arms. "Once again it was cooked over fire. Its not something you catch," Luke gave a few loving pets to Duskfeather's head before starting up again, "I most certainly do remember Onyxclaw" A sad smile over took his face before being replaced with a playful one. "So, Whisper managed to become a warrior, and a mate at that! Never thought that silly furball woud even mange to woo anyone." He chuckled deeply as he sat back in his chair and allowed himself to just enjoy his company. "Now listen younglings, things are going to be tough from here on in. Just dont stray to far from the house and you will be fine. You can run around my territory all you like but if any strange human tries to talk to you, dont talk to them. Come straight back to the house as fast as you can." With that Jennifer reappeared in to the room and said, "The guest rooms are all prepped. The young masters my retire to their beds now." Luke decided not to press the matter of baths and changing cloths. However something did bother him. He knew the apprentices were expecting to sleep in the same room together, much like the den they had left in Thunderclan. "Thank you Jennifer, but if it isnt too much trouble, could you fix up the large spare room for them? I think they want to stay together tonight." THe woman merely nodded and went away.
Shadepaw ate what he could in moments and yawned with happiness. Listening to Luke talk he tilted his head. "Are you the leader to these two-uh..humans?" The gray cat corrected himself and watched as Jennifer left to do what Luke asked. 'She looks like she could be a warrior.' Shadepaw thought and turned back to Luke.
Tigerpaw finished his cherry pie as well, and it was just as delicious as Sparrowpaw said, and even better if possible. He smacked his lips and licked them clean, savoring the flavor. "Are we going to sleep on moss?" Tigerpaw asked Luke. "Cause I know the PERFECT place to find some, but you might have extra. But then maybe humans have like something else to sleep on." He made a face.
Rainpaw sat next to Tigerpaw quietly. She hadn't said hardly anything since they had arrived in this new world. She wasn't big on change and was honestly terrified to be here. The only thing she had liked about this were the funny things called spoons and she used it to eat everything with. Looking at her cup she wanted the drink but was afraid to spill it all over her so she just put her spoon down and sat quietly with her hands in her lap.
