He's on edge, if the lack of chatter from his mouth was any indication. The walk to Skyclan's border has his eyes flicking towards his patrol mates, only offering minimal response to them if he could help it. His senses are sharp and keen- aware of where they are and why. Thunderflash doesn't know that it's exactly wise to bring Hopepaw here of all places, but he can't shield the kid forever. Not like he did at the Gathering. Juniperstar's blood is still fresh in his mind, in the way it cakes Hawkstar's muzzle. His irritation at Owlbark had only grown since then, but he could be complacent. Selfless- though every part of him wanted to be selfish.
They had to pass through Fourtrees to make it to this border. Vision flicked towards the gathering of trees in the middle where the Gathering had been, and he frowned gently. He thinks not just about the blood recently spilled, but the blood before. Fray's death. The ambush. His own flank. A grumble leaves him. "Le's keep i' movin'." He says to the other patrol mates, brushing his shoulder gently against his apprentice's. Despite his silence, he wanted Hopepaw to know that there was no reason to be as tense as him. Thunderflash would take care of it if he could help it.
The Storm Guard comes to a stop, his vision peering across the Skyclan border. It seems the same as the last time he had seen it, if not for the tense feeling in the air. That was probably from him, the way his shoulders were drawn tight together and his muscles ached already. "Keep an eye ou'. And stay on this side of th' border, aye?" He says these words not just for them, but for himself too. Just over yonder, it looked like a new tree had fallen over in one of the greenleaf storms. His ear twitched, but he doesn't mention it, looking to move on.

"speech"
Prompt: Owlbark seems wary of this border for good reason. He urges this patrol to be cautious and avoid crossing the line at any cost. When the patrol arrives, the notice a tree has fallen across the border in a recent storm. It leaves a nice patch of sunlight to relax in against the now-log's soft bark. Does the patrol risk running into SkyClan to relax, or push past?
