it was hard, being so lonely, watching his kits and friends have mates of their own. rumblingstar felt so alienated that he avoided sharing tongues as it was usually between mates and close friends, friends that he didn't have anymore. rum sighed as he padded in the caverns, looking for some prey or gemstones, or anything to brighten up his mood. as the tom padded about, he felt something sharp dig into his rough paw pads. surprised at what he had just stepped on, he jumped backwards, hitting his head on the top of the tunnel, somehow hard enough to pass out. the leader’s vision slowly went back into focus and he blinked hard. there was something looking at him, something he'd never seen before. it had huge, rippling muscles, absolutely no fur, and a raised eyebrow that looked almost unreal. “what can i say except you're welcome?” horrified at what he had just seen, rumblingstart began to babble incoherently. it had spoken to him! “i’m dwayne johnson,” the creature grinned rizzfully, showing his teeth as he finished speaking. somehow, his teeth magically sparkled. “but,” he looked at rumblingstar, pursing his lips and raising his eyebrow higher. “you can just call me the rock.” rum didn't know what the heck the thing was yapping about, but he did know rocks! and with that knowledge, his nerves eased, this creature was perfect, PERFECT! it was love at first sight. “well, the rock, i’m rumblingstar and i think you look ravishing.” he winked before kissing dwayne’s hand. “y’know, this is my territory, would you like me to show you around?” dwayne nodded and grabbed onto the cavernclan leader’s huge claw. “why, i'd love to.” and so they went, crawling through the tunnels and exchanging things about themselves, it seemed like things would be turning out perfectly, until they weren't. “i just, i just miss being loved, the rock!” rumblingstar wept, gripping his claws into the rock’s ripped muscles. “nobody loves me anymore, and i feel so empty inside because of it.” dwayne nodded and listened carefully. “i know it's hard, but there is someone that'll love you, i know there will.” the actor reassured gently, petting the large cat as he spoke. “rum, you rock! everyone in your tunnelclub loves you, you sound like a great leader, especially since you protect them from those seaweed slurper things.” rum blushed at the compliment and looked away, feeling flustered. “you really think so, the rock?” “i know so, rumbly.” rumblingstar purred. he liked this creature. he still didn't know what the heck it was, but he liked it a LOT. rumblingstar climbed off of the buff man. “the rock, i know we haven't known each other for long, but i have something to tell you.” “rumblingstar, i have something important to tell you too.” the tom bit his lip, hopefully it wouldn't be something bad, it really felt like they were hitting it off. “what if we say it together?” dwayne proposed. the cavecat nodded. “okay.” “1…2…3!” “i love you!” a wave of adoration flooded the two creatures. who knew that something so beautiful and real could bloom out of the cavernclan tunnels? moons of dating go by before they decide to get married. the entire shores were invited, even silverstar and the rest of the seaweed slurpers. the wedding was beautiful and was covered in dazzling gemstones that rum had scavenged for himself. the officiant was chris rock. almost everyone came, except for rum’s kits, who were too concerned and scared that they avoided the couple altogether. the two lovers were together for many moons, until rumblingstar accidentally choked on a rock shaped like dwayne and lost all of his lives. the end.
