Resentment was all that burned in Riptide's heart these days. How dare those interlopers, those fox-hearts, those, those. Those Clan cats. What right did they have to settle in HIS home, HIS birthplace? What right did they have to chase him away from what had been unclaimed land for longer than Riptide had been alive?
He hadn't even been able to ask if they knew the whereabouts of his mother before being met with claws and teeth. Beneath the anger and spite, worry settled like the evening fog that he'd known as well as his mother's scent when he was young.
Had the Clan cats killed her? Driven her out, along with any other cat who were just trying to live their lives? What about the den that had been Riptide's safe haven for the first half of his life? The sandy walls that had seen his first word, his first steps, his first fresh-kill? What about the seashell he'd buried when he left, having been planning on returning one day to give to his mother?
The mental image of the seashell being found and discarded, thrown into the surf like a common pebble, was enough to make Riptide snarl loudly and stop in his vengeful pacing. He grabbed a stick in his jaws that had just been sitting there, oh-so mockingly, and threw it as hard as he could in the direction of the beach.

The brown and white tom has been watching him since two seconds before, what happen to him? That's not normal for a grown cat to do that, maybe he had rabies? Nah, probably is nothing, he shooked himself a bit, licked all his fur and prepared to talk a bit or maybe pull a prank on some way or another but the colorpointed tom looked so intimidating to maybe not make a prank or joke by now.
"Chill out bro" Loki started talking while approaching the tom with his blue eyes focusing on the tom "What's your name angry boy?" the kittypet was with his caracteristic sarcastic smile on his face "And no need to ask my name, it is loki, I live in a near house over here, you're welcome" He took Riptide paw and shake it as he saw doing his two-legs "Do you know if there's some spiderweeb near here?".

Riptide was panting for breath, heaving in such a way his shoulders lifted and fell dramatically. His blood was pounding, heartbeat so loud in his ears it was all he could hear. He only became aware of the stranger a moment before they spoke. Embarrassment made Riptide's ears fold back against his head. That somebody had seen his tantrum filled him with annoyance. What if he had hit this cat with that stick because he'd lost his temper? He hadn’t exactly looked around before chucking it with all his strength. He would have felt bad about it. Actually, nevermind. Bewilderment replaced the embarrassed guilt when the cat, introducing himself as Loki, grabbed his paw with his own to shake. Riptide instinctively yanked back on his paw and took a few steps away from Loki, eyeing him warily. "... Riptide." He finally answered. He figured it wouldn't do any good to give a fake name to a kittypet that likely didn't know anything about the Clan and therefore couldn't use it against him. The question of if he'd seen any spiderwebs had him snort, and without thinking he drawled, "Have you checked your brain? There must be plenty of webs up there."Enderwoxxu
