Wow, I need to get my priorities set straight. This story has to be finished soon!

I planned on making it short anyway, just as a thing to fill up time when I'm bored.

Okay, here ya go!

"So you guys don't like people at all?" Rosebud asked Icepaw, astounded. Icepaw nodded. "Yeah. We live out here, on our own. We don't need Twolegs to take care of us."

"But don't you get lonely without your own person to curl up with on a soft bed at night?" Rosebud questioned. Icepaw sighed. "Rosebud, I told you, we live out here on our own just fine. Great StarClan, what does it take to make a pup listen?!"

"Um, for Budderball, anything food related," Rosebud replied. "For Mudbud, mud, for B-Dawg, rap music, for Buddha, a quiet place to meditate, and for me, a shopping spree!"

Icepaw just blinked, looking at her new 'friend'. "Rosebud, you do realize I was being sarcastic, right?"

Rosebud gulped and said, "Um, yeah, sure..."

"So..."

"Uh-huh..."

"Yep..."

"Yeah..."

"This is boring," Mudbud said, breaking the awkwardness. "Let's go do... something."

"Like what? Roll in mud?" Foxpaw asked. "Pass."

"There's nothing to do," B-Dawg groaned. Budderball nodded. "Yeah! I need sugar and meat!"

"I think this is fine," Buddha said from where he was attempting to meditate. "Material possesions aren't everything."

Foxpaw rolled his eyes. "Blah, blah, blah..."

"So, are we going to do anything, or give up and try and find our way home again?" Mudbud asked.

"If we go, we have to wait for Rosebud to come back," Budderball pointed out.

"So you guys are gonna leave, just like that?" Foxpaw asked, shocked. B-Dawg shrugged. "I guess. I mean, it was cool hangin' out with ya'll and everything, but we need to go back to out folks."

"Oh... Okay," Foxpaw mumbled. "You'll come visit sometimes, right?"

"Sure thing," Buddha said, getting up. "This experience was fantastic. We will most certaintly return some other time."

"Could you tell Firestar we're leaving?" Mudbud asked.

"I think we should tell him ourselves, don't you think?" a voice countered. The four pups and Foxpaw turned to see Rosebud padding over with Icepaw. "It was nice staying here, but we do need to go. I'll tell Firestar," Rosebud added, racing away.

"Well, it was nice meeting you," Budderball said.

"Yes, thanks for having us," Buddha added.

"It was... nice," Mudbud chirped.

"Off the chang, dude!" B-Dawg chimed in.

"Yeah... see ya, then," Foxpaw said as Rosebud returned.

"Bye Rosebud!" Icepaw said.

"Bye Icepaw!" Rosebud said.

The Buddies walked back into the forest, on their way home, leaving ThunderClan behind, but not for the last time...
