Seastones

[BEAR.]

..

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight padded quietly up to the large rocks. He leaped gently up onto a small stone, craning his neck to see into ThunderClan territory. Would Rainberry keep her promise and come meet him again? He didn't know. The black and white ShadowClan tom sat to wait, his gift of a thrush lain at his large paws. Lyra

[lyra]

Rainberry padded into Seastones, looking around for Frostedflight. She sniffed the air and scented him. Bounding up to the Shadowclan cat, Rainberry had noticed he had a Thrush. "Whose that for?" She asked.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight suddenly felt flustered. What had he meant to say? He knew he had caught the thrush for her, but what did he want to say to her when he gave Rainberry the bird. "Erm," he shuffled his paws, "It's for us to share. Kind of as a peace thing," he hated looking so vulnerable. It made the tom feel unsafe. "If you want to, that is..." he added on.

[lyra]

Rainberry looked at him in surprise. Was it normal for two cats from different clans to be sharing prey? She didn't think it would cause any harm, plus she probably wouldn't have much of it anyways since she mostly ate fish instead. "Oh," Rainberry replied," Okay then. I guess I might eat some of it." The grey tabby she-cat hadn't really known of any type of peace by giving prey, but she trusted Frostedflifht.

[Casual Scribbles]

"Alright then," Frostedflight picked up the bird and jumped down, landing in front of her. He pushed the bird towards the she-cat, offering her first bite.

[lyra]

Rainberry took a rather large bite, then pushed it back to Frostedflight. She kind of liked eating Thrush now, but not when there were a lot of feathers. "You can have the rest," She mewed, not that hungry.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight cocked his head. "Are you sure?" He didn't want her to be hungry.

[lyra]

Rainberry nodded. "I had a fish on the way here, so I'm fine," She promised.

[Casual Scribbles]

"Alright then," Frostedflight continued to eat, but slowly, so that if the she-cat wanted some, she could have it.

[lyra]

Rainberry watched him eat for a few seconds, then quickly looked away. It was really quiet, so she decided to start a conversation. "So," She began, her tail tip flicking," What's Shadowclan like? Not that I'm trying to find out anything serious."

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight almost laughed, but realized it would be rude. "It's wet." He said, remembering the marshy land in his territory. "But it's nicely shaded too,"

[lyra]

Rainberry nodded, and replied," Well I figured it was shady, it's Shadowclan." She paused for a moment to look at the sky, then looked back at Frostedflight. Ever since the first time they had come here and seen each other, she started to sort of like him. Soon, the thought was out of her head as she heard a bird above. Rainberry ignored it, and continued talking. "Aren't you supposed to be fierce to cats from other clans, or something?" The tabby she-cat asked, knowing the question was sort of rediculous.

[Casual Scribbles]

"Well, it's mostly for reputation purposes," Frostedflight meowed, "It's sort of how we judge character. By acting hostile, we can tell if a cat is also hostile." Frostedflight regared her with warm eyes. Rainberry really was beautiful. "Like how I could tell you wouldn't attack me unless I attacked you first."

[lyra]

"Yeah, like the other clans have a different way of seeming hostile," Rainberry added in, looking down at her paws. It had always seemed a bit strange to her how cats from other clans - especially enemy clans- always got along with each other. But now she knew, ever since she had met Frostedflight. "I have to go back to my clan now," She meowed, thinking about her friends back at the camp.

[Casual Scribbles]

"Alright," Frostedflight smiled, "I hope to see you again," he touched noses with her, hoping that was a normal friendly gesture, but was surprised when his ears felt hot, along with the top of his muzzle.

[lyra]

As Rainberry and Frostedflight touched noses, she felt blush dancing across her face. "Me too," She finally said at last before turning around and heading back towards Riverclan. The silver she-cat hoped that none of her clan mates would smell Shadowclan scent on her, but doubted it since going through her own territory would rub it off.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight watched her go, fighting with his own feelings. I can't! I only just met her yesterday! Besides, she's from a different Clan. A cat as beautiful as her is sure to have a mate already. But, I do. I do love her, Tears sprung up in the large tom's eyes. All his life he had just wanted to be a loyal ShadowClan cat, and here he was, falling in love with a cat from another Clan. Frostedflight tore himself away. He battled with himself all the way back.

A silver tabby she-cat looked around as she entered the Seastones, the sound of the birds calming her. She started smiling at the thought of her friends trying to persuade her into some water, but she knew she would go and see Frostedflight today so she didn't. At least she hoped that he had come. Rainberry stared down at her paws for a moment. Should she have brought some prey? The silver tabby didn't know, but she didn't think it would do any harm. Shaking the thoughts out of her head, Rainberry padded forward and looked around once more, but still no sign of Frostedflight. Everyime Rainberry thought of him, or even saw him, her heart skipped a beat. I can;t like him, I must stay loyal to my clan! She thought to herself oneday.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight stepped out of the shade and gasped. She was here! He wasn't sure whether to be relieved or not. The sun caught her coat, making her even more majestic than she already was. "You're here," he breathed, padding up to her. "I- I didn't know you'd be here right now," her scent was making him dizzy. It was sweet, and he couldn’t seem to look away from her. Frostedflight's blue eyes gleamed in the light.

[lyra]

"Oh, well me neither," Rainberry replied, the tips of her ears growing warm. She shifted her paws, and looked away for a second as he stepped up to her. She didn't expect Frostedflight to always come here, but he seemed like the kind of cat that would keep a promise no matter what. "So," She started, not sure what to say," Um, how's the clan?" At that moment she felt like face-pawing. That was one of the dumbest questions a cat could ask, especially during this time.

[Casual Scribbles]

"ShadowClan is doing fine. And RiverClan? There's a rumour that ThunderClan and WindClan have moved closer to your territory?" His heart skipped a beat when she spoke, but then it kept pounding loudly. He was sure she could hear it.

[lyra]

Rainberry nodded. "Yeah, they're closer to Riverclan. I don't really like it all, though," She told Frostedflight, twitching her ear. She then noticed she hadn't been spending as much time with the clan. Rainberry was always to cuaght up in hunting, or meeting other cats she had completely forgot about what was happening right in front of her face.

[Casual Scribbles]

"I don't blame you. I wouldn't like it either," Frostedflight turned to sit next to her, close enough that the tips of their pelts brushed. The air between them seemed to be filled with static energy, and Frostedflight's heart beat even faster.

[lyra]

Rainberry felt her ear tips heat up as Frostedflight sat next to her. Looking away, she saw a few birds flying overhead, She never really cared to eat them, she liked watching them sometimes.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight followed Rainberry's gaze. He saw the birds, wheeling through the leaf-fall sky. "I find birds interesting, you?"

[lyra]

Rainberry shrugged and watched the birds for a few moments before looking back down at her paws. "Sometimes," She replied and let out a small sigh. Just being around Frostedfligh made her feel nervous, even when there was no need.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight smiled. If he could just make her laugh. He was sure the sound would be just as beautiful as she was. Frostedflight got an idea. He tapped her with a paw, then jumped away. "Tag!"

[lyra]

Rainberry stayed where she was until she realized what Frostedflight was doing. Smiling, she chased after him, hoping to finally catch the shadowclan cat. After a few seconds Rainberry caught up with him and meowed," Your it!"

[Casual Scribbles]

"Gah!" Frostedflight laughed. He raced around after her. "No, you are!" Then he darted up onto the stones.

[lyra]

"CHeater!" SHe laughed, and we rn back after him. Playing around frostedflight every her feel comfortable around him, like he would never hurt anything for any reason.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight breathed out in a sigh. He'd gotten her to laugh, which was all he wanted. "I'm not cheating, I'm just using my surroundings to my advantage!" He laughed breathlessly back to Rainberry.

[lyra]

Rainberry smiled, then sat down. Her paws ached from some of the stones that constantly poked at her pads whenever she ran. The riverclan she-cat wasn't used to them, even though there own territory had some. She then realized that she hadn't been hunting as much, or doing anything that fun either, but she shook the thought away and turned back to Frostedflight. "So Im guessing you do this with a lot of she-cats?" Rainberry asked, clearly saying it as a joke.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight skidded to a stop at the question. "What? No. I don't," he padded carefully back down to her. "What makes you think that?"

[lyra]

Rainberry realized something, and shook her head. Her smile dissapeared as she said," Nevermind." She looked arund for a quick second. "I have to go anyways."

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight's spirit sunk. "Oh, okay," he meowed softly. "I guess I'll see you around?"

[lyra]

"Uh, yeah! Of course," Rainberry replied, a tiny smile on her face. She felt bad for wanting to leave so soon, but at the same time she also had to get back to camp. After a few moments the silver tabby said," Ok, well see you later." Padding out of the seastones, her paws ached from the constant rocks. She looked back at Frostedflight one more time before completely leaving.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight stared after her for a few moments before turning and heading back to ShadowClan.

Duskpaw breathed in relief,Starclan was watching over him, no one would lay a claw on him at the Seastones,he'd stay here until the battle way over, but he couldn't tell if it was over

Silverpaw approached seastones, looking around him. "Littlepaw? Are you here?" His banded tail swished as he glanced at the quarter moon.

Littlepaw walked along the seastones, waiting for Her friend. Her white pelt shined in the Moonlight, she waved her tail. Littlepaw sighed, looking around. After hearing a voice, she looked over. "Neko!" She called. Littlepaw ran over to the Silver tom. "Sorry, Silverpaw now right? I'm glad your hear!" She purred. Littlepaw flicked her tail, and tilted her head to the side. "So, hows clan life?"

"Littlepaw!" He smiled brightly. "It's pretty good. I miss you a lot, though," he meowed, stepping forward to touch his nose to her cheek. "How have you been? Have you seen Pardus, I heard the Syndicate is close to SkyClan."

"Littlepaw!" He smiled brightly. "It's pretty good. I miss you a lot, though," he meowed, stepping forward to touch his nose to her cheek. "How have you been? Have you seen Pardus, I heard the Syndicate is close to SkyClan."
Littlepaw smiled, " I missed you too!" She purred, pressing her nose on his cheek. She looked at Silverpaw, her eyes darkened. "No...But its fun going around and exploring the forest! I've never seen the other clans before, isn't there a thing called a gathering?" She asked.

"Oh, yeah, I think it's held here. It's too bad you haven't seen him..." He glanced behind him. "I sure hope my mentor didn't follow me. She doesn't trust me at all. Oh, and I found a place we could meet," he added brightly.

[NightWarrior4Life]

The dark grey she-cat, VelvetNight, laid in the nest. HarmonyBlade, the father of her kits, was sat beside her while she argued with CrispLeaf. "VelvetNight, where are our kits? You took them with you to the forest, did you not?"
"I do not know what you're talking about HarmonyBlade. We never had kits..."
"That's what I want to know!" CrispLeaf snapped "Did you or did you not have kits with HarmonyBlade? Because you are bearing my kits right now and I do not want them to deal with other siblings!"
"I did not have HarmonyBlade's kits and even if I did, they're over in the forest...away from all this..."
"You lie!" Technically VelvetNight was telling the truth. She'd left her kits there so she could hide them from CrispLeaf...by the time she'd have given birth to his kits, HarmonyBlade's would be around 7 moons old...

[NightWarrior4Life]

The next moon, VelvetNight was nursing 2 more kits. CrispLeaf's kits. OverKit was a dark grey Tom and ThundraKit was a frosty white Tom. HarmonyBlade stared at them with linging and sorrow, missing his own kits. "Why name them that?" He asked. "OverKit means I'm done with romance...no more drama with you toms! And ThundraKit...a thundra is a frozen forest...like the forest near the clans..." She sighed...regretting everything that had happened the past 3 moons...she truly loved HarmonyBlade and rightfully belonged to him..."ahh I see. Do not fret my love for there is always a place where the grass grows greener. Everyone haas a place like that...you will find your place someday...whether it is with me or not." She nodded at his words, tears filling her eyes. Every breath she took without love was painful.

Littlepaw smiled, " I missed you too!" She purred, pressing her nose on his cheek. She looked at Silverpaw, her eyes darkened. "No...But its fun going around and exploring the forest! I've never seen the other clans before, isn't there a thing called a gathering?" She asked.
(Bump?)

[judas]

Littlepaw nosed Sliverpaw lovingly. "Come on, your a good cat. She should trust you," She looked around, Why do I get the feeling that someone's following me? Littlepaw sighed, "So! Show me this place!" She mewed, waving her tail.

Another moon passed. OverKit and ThundraKit playing. VelvetNight watched them with a sigh. "They should be with the clans to. What kind of home is this?"
"Yes, they may be better off in the forest but...they may not be as well off as the other three..."
"The other three? Well off? What do you know about them? Have you seen them?" She gasped "are my kits safe?"
"I took a little trip about a fortnight ago. I could scent them. GleamKit's was very fresh. And a rabbit's...and a she-cat who took them to WindClan. She is taking care of them now."
"I thought I smelt a she-cat. I believe she was hunting that rabbit there before...oh HarmonyBlade, this is fantastic news! We must go and visit them someday soon okay?"
"Yes VelvetNight, anything to make you happy." They purred, VelvetNight hurrying her muzzle in the ginger tom's fur. Then the brown and white tabby Tom came. CrispLeaf. "How are my kits VelvetNight?" He trailed off as his eyes went from the kits, to the dark grey she-cat, to HarmonyBlade. "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!"
"CrispLeaf!" She wailed.

Littlepaw nosed Sliverpaw lovingly. "Come on, your a good cat. She should trust you," She looked around, Why do I get the feeling that someone's following me? Littlepaw sighed, "So! Show me this place!" She mewed, waving her tail.

Silverpaw purred slightly at her touch. "Well, I'm not exactly supposed to meet you here," he pointed out, shifting nervously on his paws. "Oh, right, the place..." he trailed off. The young silver spotted tom glanced back. Remember, this could be your last moment with her, don't spend it thinking about your mentor,

Littlepaw nosed Silverpaw. "So you gonna show me this place or are we gonna sit until we both have to go?" She purred. Littlepaw flicked her grey tail, looking at Silverpaw with her kind smile. She flicked her paw over his ears, "Come on! I'm getting bored. Sagemist might be wondering where I am." She mewed. Littlepaw walked around, looking at The stones. "Look how calm every thing is..."

He licked her cheek. "C'mon," purred the silver tom, leading the way over to the tunnel. He couldn't shake of both the feeling that they were being watched, nor thinking that he was breaking the code by being with Littlepaw--he assured himself over and over that they weren't doing anythng wrong by being friends, but his green-yellow gaze kept flitting back towards the Clans.

[NightWarrior4Life]

VelvetNight stared down into the valley at the gathering of cats speckling the ground with gingers and greys and Browns, HarmonyBlade at her side. "What are you looking at my love?"
"It's a gathering! With all the clans! We can see the kits again..." A tear rolled down her face "can we go?"
"Yes my dear...they deserve to know that what happened was forced..." He buried his muzzle in her flank, the two totally overcome with emotion...

[judas]

Nightshade sat down, his gaze flickering around the clearing. He was safe here, he didn't trust anyone in his camp. Not at the moment. His paws shuffled nervously in the dirt as he scanned the area. It's not like something bad's happening at home, he thought. Or I wouldn't have left Mistkit. It's just.....his thoughts shattered as he picked through the RiverClan crowd. Moonpaw wasn't there. He bit back a cry of sadness- her first gathering, and she would miss it.

A thick-furred black she-cat padded up to Seastones, a small trout clamped firmly in her jaw. Blackbird's silvery yellow eyes reflected the snow-brightened sunlight and glowed light search beams. Her dark paws crunched the snow as she walked, finally halting at the base of a snow-covered Stone.

(Ack Snow is in four places at once XDD)
Snowsong had a squirrel in her jaws as she headed toward the Seastones. The Siamese's ice blue eyes darted around slightly, and she paused to take a deep breath before continuing on. She hadnt been this far before, except during a gathering. In fact, she had no idea why she was even here, or at least she'd forgotten.

The smell of another squirrel hit her nose, and she dropped the one she had beside a stone, raising her head and opening her mouth slightly to scent the air. Then she stopped, smelling the unmistakable scent of a RiverClan cat.

The she-cat shuffled her paws. Even she couldn't say that was a good start to a conversation.

"Uh, hey," She gave a friendly smile at the RiverClan cat. "You're a RiverClan cat." She added, looking somewhat curious as she tipped her head at Blackbird, a smile on her maw.

Well, heh, I kinda do... I'll be quiet now..." The warrior looked down at her paws and stepped out around the rock.

"Snowsong... So you're a warrior? Has Gyrestar chosen his deputy yet?" she inquired curiously, tail flicking. It was an innocent question, but she hoped it didn't sound like she was prying... Calm down, Blackbird.

"Thanks." Snowsong smiled, her eyes sparkling as she sat down. The Siamese curled her black tail over her paws, her ice blue eyes studying Blackbird curiously. "How's RiverClan doing?" Ugh, Snow, do you have any idea how nosy that sounds? She scolded herself silently.

Blackbird say down as well. "RiverClan? It's pretty much the same as usual... I caught a trout. Have you ever tried trout? I like trout. Trout's delicious. Who doesn't like trout? I said I love trout, right? It's so great." This is why I don't have any friends, she thought dismally.

Snowsong grinned, giving an amused chuckled. "I've never tried trout. But I caught a squirrel. Have you tried a squirrel? I loooovvee squirrels. They're amazing. I dont know a single ThunderClan cat who doesnt like a good plump squirrel! I love it. Did I already say that?" She giggled.

Blackbird tilted her head. "No, I haven't... Would you like to try the trout?" she asked, nudging it with her paw. She probably shouldn't be offering the deputy of ThunderClan a snack at the end of leafbare, but she found it sad that any cat didn't know how fish tasted.

Snowsong smiled brightly, pushing the squirrel forward. "Sure! You wanna try the squirrel?" A part of the deputy screamed at her not to offer another Clan-cat food, but hey, the other she-cat was offering too! Snowsong looked at the trout with a curious expression, silently wondering what it tasted like.

"Exactly! I don't know how you ThunderClan cats can even live without fish, but I guess squirrel's a pretty great alternative," she admitted, taking a second bite of the fresh-kill. "It's really good!"

Snowsong laughed a little, finishing off the rest of the trout. She sat up and licked a paw, running it over her whiskers. "Fish is good. Squirrel's still my favorite though," she chuckled.

Blackbird took another bite of the squirrel. She was more of a slow eater and preffered to enjoy food when she could. "You sure?" she asked somewhat jokingly. "Scales not cutting it for you?" Taking a few more bites, she finished off the small prey.

"Heh," Snowsong chuckled a little bit. "I remember once I tried a toad." She mused suddenly, tilting her head. "And now I just tried a fish....Next up, rabbit," She joked.

"Heh," Snowsong chuckled a little bit. "I remember once I tried a toad." She mused suddenly, tilting her head. "And now I just tried a fish....Next up, rabbit," She joked.
"Rabbit must be like squirrel, 'cept full of heather," Blackbird predicted. "They're both furry, 'ren't they? I'm not an expert though... What's toad like?" she asked, tail swishing in the freezing sand.

"Rabbit must be like squirrel, 'cept full of heather," Blackbird predicted. "They're both furry, 'ren't they? I'm not an expert though... What's toad like?" she asked, tail swishing in the freezing sand.

"Well, good," Snowsong replied with a smile. "It wasnt bad.In fact is was quite delicious."

"Well, good," Snowsong replied with a smile. "It wasnt bad.In fact is was quite delicious."
"I'll take your word for it... Slimy, aren't they?" the warrior asked, tilting her head. She didn't get to talk to others much, since her Clanmates avoided her like mice avoid a vulture, and her curiousity shone through simply because she rarely learned things from other cats.

"Kinda," Snowsong replied with a nod, licking a paw and running it over her muzzle. She paused, before running her paw over her ear as well, thinking. "But it was still good. Not as good as squirrel but good."

Black laughed. "Is nothing as good as squirrel?" she inquired, smiling.

"Nope." Snowsong grinned playfully. "Not in my eyes. Or, mouth."

"Nope." Snowsong grinned playfully. "Not in my eyes. Or, mouth."
(True friendship: When you joke about food and small cats are starving =D)
"Wow," laughed the she-cat. Blackbird shook off her fur, in which sand always managed to somehow creep in, and appeared to lose her weight in sand from her fur by doing so.

Blackbird grinned brightly before turning to go back to her own Clan. The prospect of it was gloomy, but better to get it over with. "See you!" And then she scampered off, going off towards RiverClan, her bushy tail waving.

Cucumberpickle walked quietly along the shore, enjoying the peace. I don't have a mate anymore, or kits, or anyone...

Yewpaw was stalking in the bushes and spotted a warrior of Skyclan," ARRG!" he yowled leaping, with sheathed paws onto Cucumberpickle, knocking him over.

Cucumberpickle snarled, hackles raised," WHO ARE YOU FLEABAG!!"

Yewpaw snorted, relaxing," I'm Yewpaw of Windclan, the most obnoxious apprentice in all the clans."

Cucumberpickle relaxed," Come, let's talk Yewpaw, I once was the most annoying apprentice, but I outgrew it as will you."

Yewpaw sat down," I honestly doubt it, Squirrel."

Cucumberpickle ignored the rude remark," I know elders are annoying when they tell stories, but listen to t his one and tell me if you are more annoying."

Yewpaw nodded," Aight."

Cucumberpickle started," I was born a kittypet, but was adopted by Skyclan after my mother abandoned me in the territory,I made fun of our former leader, Almondstar, I said she was a squirrelbrain, and any plans she had were stupid. Especially when she took on another former kittypet on as her apprentice. Then I met my mentor...," he chuckled," Jigglefoot was a munchkin, smaller than me at 6 moons old, I laughed at him, and he made me do choirs, I eventually became a stuck up warrior... I thought it was all cool, then I met my love, Creamfur...I took her as a mate and had five kits, Pebblekit, Sandkit...ehh...I'll spare you from the names... Then, when Skyclan came to fight, dispite my distrust in her of raising kits, I went to the battle, when I returned, Creamfur had disapeared with Sandkit. I turned into an overprotective father, they never left the nursery until 5 moons old. The only one who will talk to me, is Pebblepaw." he chuckled," Now I'm practically alone, now tell me what makes you obnoxious."

Yewpaw blinked," You sure don't seem obnoxious, I guess I'll start as a kit, I was born in Windclan, but my parents disappeared before I can remember. It was just me and my sister, Quailpaw. She bossed me around. I spent kit days pulling elders tails and waking up apprentices and warriors at night, until three moons old when I started sneaking out of camp and exploring, I never hunted, since I was a kit, and I returned before dawn. Then, when the fire broke out, I told Quailpaw fire was dangerous, she assumed I was wrong, though I'll admit I usually am. She put her paw in the flame. She lost her paw." he was quite for a minute," When she first came concious after a warrior and Surgestorm helped her, I laughed at her, saying she was a mousebrain. Later, while in recovery, she face planted and landed in the dirt, I called her a dumb kit, since she fell. I continued training, then we started training together, I said she was being a show-off making the first catch before me. Now I sneak out at night and strut in front of monsters and jump off the apprentice den."

Cucumberpickle blinked then shoutted," YOU STRUT IN FRONT OF MONSTERS!"

Yewpaw nodded," sleeping monsters."

Cucumber put is paw to his face," Your a mousebrain. Well...Remember my story..I need to get to camp. See you at the gathering." he ran off.

The young apprentice had made his way in the direction of the gathering, he didn't get to go to the last gathering, Grousestar had already chosen the cats he wished to have accompany him. The grey spotted tom stopped and looked out at the horizon, the waves crashing against the rocks and gently pushing the sand seemed to calm the apprentices nerves, all hits talk about battle had actually managed to scare him a little, but then again, who wouldn't it scare? Hummingpaw continued to stare out into the ocean for a few more seconds before he turned his attention behind him, his eyes half idled "Are you two always this slow? Makes me wonder how you two became Warriors." he stated, annoyance dripped form his words, it was true, how could one become a warrior I felt they were slow? Truely they would die in battle and they wouldn't be very good in a patrol, especially if they had deliver urgent news back to the leader. The apprentice turned his green optics back upon the water and let out a relaxed sigh "I'm happy you guys chose this place, it really calms the nerves. At least you two got this right, good job." he praised, although only a minimal amount of effort was put into that praise, but he didn't really care. He began to walk across the coastline, only letting his paws get slightly wet, not really wanting to walk back to camp with wet paws. "Maybe I could bring Pigeonpaw a shell, she might like that." he said to himself, his sister flashing in his mid for a moment, before it was quickly replaced with an image of a badger as bushes nearby shuddered. His fur rose and his ears flattened against his headline, oh dear Starclan please don't let it be a badger, he hadn't trained for that yet.

Scorchedpetal chuckled at the apprentice. "Ah, but slow is better some times." she said, a sweet laugh lacing her words. "Look, above, young one. Stars do not travel fast, in fact, it takes them as long as the moon to trek across the night sky." she explained. Oh, wait till Cliffheart heard this one! She smiled gingerly at the tom, then turned to the warrior next to her. "He's an ambitious one." she said, her voice warm and smoothe like honey. She then scented an odd smell coming from not too far away, and it was not of her clan. "Stop, Hummingpaw." she warned quietly and took in another breath.

Since their trek to the Clans, this place was still relatively new to him, as Opalflame hadn't a chance to fully explore the surrounding area yet. It sent chills down his spine though as he watched the water roll up in waves before dragging the sand back down with it's ghastly grip. A soft breeze accompanied the dying sun that was clearly setting against the water, sinking lower and lower. No other noises were present other than the quiet lapping of the waves against the shore, and the gentle hum of crickets nearby. It was definitely prettier than SkyClan's old territory, that was something Opalflame was sure of. He'd never been a fan, it had always been too close to the neighborhoods he grew up in; too close to the past that he just wanted to forget about altogether. Because of this, he didn't necessarily have the pull towards his Clan's former home as some of them did, and was actually excited about making the journey to four other Clans.

The journey had been a wonderful success, but thinking of the journey brought back unwanted memories, and for a brief moment the tom's eyes clouded over with passing grief; his mother. Right before he had joined SkyClan, his mother had been slaughtered before his own eyes. She hadn't been able to reach the end of their long journey, and a dull ache settled deep within the SkyClan warriors heart as he remembered how jubilant she had been to be apart of a Clan. She would've loved this, Opalflame thought with a soft smile, a light brightening up his gaze once more.

"Ah, you have much to learn Hummingpaw if going fast is your only objective," the warror spoke, a light humor in his voice as he glanced at the young apprentices back. It had been some time since his last dusk patrol, and after coordinating with Scorhedpetal, decided that patrolling the outer borders would be best. "Slow allows us to keep our eyes peeled for intruders, such as any Syndicate cats trying to stir up trouble." At the mention of the rag tag group of rogues that SkyClan had constantly been having trouble with since they had arrived, Opalflame's eyes narrowed just a hare. He didn't like the smug fighters anymore than he liked ticks in his fur, and they were really starting to get on his nerves. He knew it was only a matter of time before Grousestar stepped up to say enough was enough, and when the time came, Opalflame felt more than ready to sink his claws into the fur of the flea-ridden pieces of crowfood.

Catching the strange odar at relatively the same moment as his older companion, the ginger tom also paused, allowing each limb to turn into stone. He could hear the blood rushing in his ears and parted his jaws to draw in more of the scent. Instinctively, he stepped to the front of the patrol, feeling the need to protect the others he had with him. Opalflame was not the type of cat to underestimate any SkyClan warriors ability to hold their own in a fight - and he knew Scorchedpetal was more than capable of doing just that - but these were his Clanmates. The cats his mother had given her life to get him to; he would die protecting any one of them. "If someone is there, show yourself. We don't take kindly to strangers," Opalflame called, raising his voice slightly as a stern tone settled into his throat and coated the words he spoke. Especially with all the rogue and Dusk Syndicate trouble going on lately he added to himself as an after thought, letting his muscles tense up to better prepare himself for, well, anything. Eyes narrowed ever so slightly more as she scanned the horizon, trying to spot where the unique smell was coming from.

The night was early. The starry sky was young, filled with old, fading stars amidst a host of new-born ones, shining bright and filling the night with their youthful light. A silhouette of a furred four-legged creature walked softly along the shoreline. Her poise was graceful with each step, soft pink pads sinking into the ocean sand, no longer scorched and hot from the sun, but soft and cool from the chilly night time breeze. She was lost in thought as she approached the seastones. Her salmon-pink irises rested on the sand before her as she strode at an even pace. This cat was exceptionally fluffy, and her marshmallow-y fur billowed in the night breeze. Despite this creatures delicate nature, it had no tail. Well, it did, but it was considerably short, especially considering that she was a domestic feline. She was, in fact, a bobtail, one of the very few cat species bred with a short tail, rather than a long, majestic banner. This gave her a bit of a quirky demeanor, which was made up for in her intellect.

This was Elumen; she had chosen the life of a nomad since she was a teenager, sent away by her parents, as was the ritual of the strange, exotic band of cats she had come from. Her birthplace had come from the far, distant mountains; a place where it was much colder, hence the thick fur, built for polar temperatures. She was amazed that she could travel this far, and encounter this many adventures, by the time she had reached the peak of her adulthood, the age she was at now. During her journeys, she had learned so much, seen so many new and amazing things, made so many friends, and acquired a remarkable amount of knowledge of the world. For that, she was forever in gratitude. However, as she continued to leave paw prints in the sand behind her, she felt that, perhaps, she had become nothing more than that. Pawprints that once trod across great structures, pawprints that were left in old friends hearts and memories. The more she thought about it, the more she began to wonder: What would it be like to live a simple, family life? What would it be like to have a place to call home? To built a family? These concepts, though simple, were foreign to her.

While these thoughts came into her mind like the slowly crashing waves of the ocean shore, she began to approach a rockier area of beach. As she continued, more, and larger stones appeared in her path, before there was a whole pile of mighty boulders spread out ahead of her. Stones. Elumen loved large stones; they reminded her of her birthplace, a place filled with mountainous rocks to climb and explore. She welcomed a feeling of nostalgia that came over her as she bounded onto a flat boulder, and another, and another. She was a natural, powerful jumper and climber, and she was happy to be in her natural habitat for a while. Looking up at the stars, she realized it must be time for her to rest for the night, and this seemed like the perfect place.

The peach-furred bobtail began to sniff around the area, as if to ensure that there were no foxes of badgers that might already have claimed this beautiful structure. Instead, she was surprised to find a feint trace of feline. Lots of them. It seemed stale...yet, fresh. Rather perplexed, she continued to sniff around. Suddenly, she heard distant voices. Her head and eyes shot up like a deer in headlights (though, considerably calmer, as she was always well-composed). Perhaps these were the cats that lived in this structure. As a precaution, she routinely would retreat into hiding so that she could get a good view of the cats, in order to determine whether or not these cats would be welcoming or unwelcoming. Quiet and careful now, the fae slunk into a patch of nearby bushes.

Her breath was shallow as she waited for the cats to approach. They were making small talk, she could hear. But she couldn't hear them well enough. They seemed like they were just outside her hiding place, but she needed to get closer, to hear what they were saying. She tried to take a delicate and careful step forward, but her pad fell onto unexpected twigs, which snapped, and caused her to fidget in surprise. Now, she could see through the leaves, that all eyes were alert and on her. Well, no use in trying to hide now. Whatever form of greeting she would receive, she would have to cope. The she-cat may look quirky, but she was a decent fighter.

Elumen's eyes seemed to gleam from within the shadows of the bushes, glinting in the dim moonlight. Slowly and cautiously, she stepped forward, rustling more leaves as she emerged from the shrubbery, becoming more visible to the opposing cats in the blue luminescent light. She quickly took in each cat's appearance: Two full-grown cats, one much younger. She knew that if they attacked, she wouldn't be able to take on three of them, so her body movements were kept wary and un-offensive, as if walking on eggshells. She was now standing before them, head held high despite her somewhat submissive manners. "Hello," Her voice was low, yet smooth, "Is this your land?"

[Serendipity]

Frostedflight suddenly felt flustered. What had he meant to say? He knew he had caught the thrush for her, but what did he want to say to her when he gave Rainberry the bird. "Erm," he shuffled his paws, "It's for us to share. Kind of as a peace thing," he hated looking so vulnerable. It made the tom feel unsafe. "If you want to, that is..." he added on.
RAISINBERRY!!!

Littlewing walked along the stones. The smell of salt began to wash away her skyclan scent. The She-cat looked around, wounds from the battle fresh on her pelt. She had been careful to protect her belly. Her fluffy fur ruffled in the breeze. She waited For Silverleap, her news couldn't wait. Was it a week? It seemed longer. She had known in a week, kits. Maybe five, her belly larger than three or four kits already. Yes, she had known for a week, with five kits in her belly. And she had still fought in a battle

"Silverleap?!" She called. Would he leave her? They weren't really mates, or anything. They loved each other but they had never asked anything about the matter. Would he come to skyclan? She was a full skyclan cat, bringing dusk syndicate kits. No, they were not evil, Silverleap is kind. But... No. The kits will not meet his brother. What was she doing? She couldn't stress, just relax

A peaceful walk. Was that too much to ask for? A single walk in celebration of not healing every stupid thing he touched. A stroll to Seastones to watch the stars rise as the sun bled out into the ocean. So, of course, StarClan instead decided that Silver should encounter Littlepaw--no, Littlewing. He had almost forgotten. Rushing over to her, he looked her over. "Wh-what happened?" he asked, somewhat aghast. "You're... Are you okay?" The silver tom had completely ignored her swollen belly, but she looked for all the world as if there had been a... battle. But with who? With what?

How could anyone catch Pardus? They couldn't... Before Silverleap left. No, no, no, I'm sure it's something else. This is my fault. I should have stayed.

For a moment his voice left him and all he could do was mouth the name, "Pardus." Shaking his head at nothing in particular, he could guess how his brother most certainly felt; like a caged bird, unable to escape the bars of its prison. Silverleap blinked again as his attention focused back on her.

Oh. So this was how a fly in cobwebs felt. Stuck, nowhere to go, unable to do anything but think of how stupid it was to become trapped. Maybe he had misheard her... "A father? You're having... Kits? But how is that even possible? They'll be near Pardus... Oh, why can't you come to RiverClan? It's bad enough that they'll be Syndicate kits, let alone with me and my brother around... How many do you think?" he asked. Silver was fighting back both joy and dismay. This was ridiculous, though. It was already bad enough that the kits were to be half-Clan. RiverClan, the Syndicate, and SkyClan; they were sure to suffer for it in a Clan that he could tell was warring against the very place of what was to be a huge part of their heritage.

Littlewing hissed, "They won't be Dusk Syndicate kits, they'll be our kits. And your brother will be guarded. Besides, I can't go to Riverclam, I. Don't. Swim." Littlewing sighed, "And judging by my size and ammount of time I've been carrying your kits. I'd say about....Five.."

"Same difference," he snorted coldly, and for a moment, his restrained old self had fought its was into control. "Try keeping Pardus trapped anywhere he doesn't want to be. He might actually murder one of our kits!" The ocicat's fur had been rising along his back, hostility overcoming dismay and-- "Five?!" Now, it was terror that edged the young warrior's voice. "No..."

Little dropped her head. Her Head rushing around, Littlewing's Moods rushed through her. She was mad, happy, sad all at the same time. Littlewing began to cry, thinking Silver would be happy. She curled her tail around her paws. "Even if you don't Want to be, you are these kits father. I expected you to be happy. Maybe you aren't the cat I thought you were." She mewed. Littlewing hid her face slightly. "I-If you won't be there for them, I'm sure some other tom will!"

"Littlewing..."
No, there was nothing to say. Sorry? He couldn't be. Maybe it was better if she just left him and found a better cat. They weren't even atually mates... right? Just two cats. Two very young cats. What was he supposed to do? There was nothing Silver could do. Nothing, except, maybe, if he could release himself from his petrified state. I'm sorry. I really am... He opened and closed his mouth once, twice, and finally, his voice came, carrying his words with it.
"I guess you should find that tom, I'm sure he'll be a better father than me."
And with that, he turned and fled to RiverClan, faster than he knew his paws could carry him. It was just too much in one day... And we wasn't sure if he was ever going back.

Littlewing bolted after him, slipping on one of the stones. "Neko...!" It was all she could say. Little banged her head, dropping into the water. She couldn't moved, her eyes opened and dropped. Is this it? She was going to die her, alone with her five unborn kits. Unless... Silverleap wouldn't come back, he made his choice..

Cloudburst bolted over after have been watching for quite some time. "This is why you don't break the warrior code." He said to himself. He took a deep breath and jumped down into the water. He barely knew how to swim but he had learned to by himself one time. He kicked until he made it down to the pregnant she-cat. He grabbed her scruff and started going back up. He blinked as he started running out of breath. He grew tired but still kicked. I have to save a future mother! he jumped, surfaced, and put the she-cat on land softly. He breathed heavily.

Perhaps Morningheart had strayed too far this time.
Yeah, because he had someone ended up all the way at the Seastones. The scent of the sea was fresh on his tongue, and the sun-kissed tom squinted in the bright sunlight. After moments of inspecting the area as he perched on a salty stone, his ears swiveled to pick up noices.
Voices.
There were cats here?
The cream tabby's copper optics widened slightly. Oh dear, maybe he should go back? Run away? Maybe they won't see him. He'd much rather be back home in SkyClan, speaking to his possibly new friend Sagemist. The warrior's claws scratched against the rocks, sharpening them to a fine length.
More voices- angry voices, and then the sound of thumps and a large splash. Instinctively, he leap further up the rocks, looking around wildly for the source of the distress.
He could spot a figure writhing under the water, a small wipe of blood on a stone wedged on the shore.
It was just as he had feared.
He was a SkyClan cat, not RiverClan! What was he going to do, he couldn't swim at all. Morningheart's ears flattened. Maybe the only way to fix this was to risk it all.
Puffing out his chest and pushing his fears away, the tom lowered himself and slid into the water, kicking feebly as he tried to meet his maws to the scruff of the pregnant she-cat weakly. This was harder then he thought, and if he wasn't quick- he and this molly would be gone under the sea.
After what seemed like countless hours of struggling, he felt the weight in his jaws loosen, and he forced his eyes open under the salty water, making out the figure of a tom pulling the molly to shore. And what about him?
Panic quickly settled in, and he flailed, only managing to drive himself deeper under the surface. No no no. He was going to die.
His limbs- he had no idea what to do with them other then throw them around in hopes of pushing himself up. But nothing was working. His vision was getting dimmer and dimmer, eyes burning with such intense pain as it met contact with the salty ocean.
Morningheart took in a deep breath instinctively, and only took in more and more water, still struggling to reach the surface, his lungs were screaming.
God, what a mess he had gotten himself into this time.

Littlewing took in a breath, coughing and spitting as the two toms pulled her up. She didn't want it, let me go.. Littlewing let her gaze fall, falling back onto the stones as she coughed up more water. She hissed, scrapping her claws on the ground. Her paws began to bleed as she tore the claws in stones. Littlewing curled up in a cold ball. "Why?!" Is all she said, expecting some dumb answer.

Cloudburst peered into the water just in case. He spotted what seemed to be a skycan cat for he couldnt swim and he looked oddly familiar. He cursed under his breath and jumped down into the water once more. He kicked harder and faster. He went down deeper and deeper until his lungs started filling with water. He barely grabbed the Tom with his teeth and started kicking up. He jumped under the water and after minutes that seemed like hours, he surfaced. He threw the tom onto shore and barely climbed up. He coughed out water and soon, black swept over him as he fell and passed out.

His vision was darkening, he could barely even move.
Morningheart closed his eyes, the stinging of his eyes was just a mere tickle compared to the burning, twisting feeling in his lungs.
He could barely see anything, he was numb all over.
His eyes slipped shut completely, and he let himself go...

The sun-kissed tom flopped onto the shore, water gurgling in his throat and spilling out of his jaws as he threw up the salty water that burned his throat and clogged his system. His breaths came in raspy, pained breaths as his tense lungs released as the oxygen flowed back into his body. Morningheart's stinging eyes were wide, barely processing the brush with death he just had. There were still black blobs in his vision, and he could barely move.
He could barely move his paws, but out of the corner of his blurry vision, he spotted the tom that had saved his life promptly faint, and he let out a weak moan of despair. Morningheart's throat ached so bad, he thought it was bleeding for a moment.

Fur disheveled, he coughed up even more water as his head spun. Weakly lifting his head up, he stared at Littlewing. ( Myik )
"You're... you're alive.." He had barely managed to rasp out, eyes tearing up with pain. Morningheart's eyes trailed to Cloudburst weakly, and let out a mumbled rasp. He couldn't move, but he desperately wanted to help.

The warrior's cheek was rested on a stone, barely even registering what was happening around him. He thought... He thought he was going to die. Morningheart had never felt so scared in his life.

"We need... We need to help... 'im.... I can't.... move.."

Looking over, Littlewing shifted. She slowly began to move over until she was pressed against the cat. Littlewing began to lick his fur backwards. "Shh, keep your streagth up," She mewed. The she cat turned her head for a moment. "You should get something to patch him up, just until the medicine cat can.." She mumbled.

Spluttering a bit more water, Morningheart kept his cheek pressed against the seastone. The tom looked confused, even in his dazed state. "What do you mean..? Herbs..?" He asked, before weakly dragging himself over to Cloudburst. The sun-kissed tom's matted pelt was now mixed with dirt and bits of granite, attempting to pump the tom's chest with his paws weakly. @WildTETRIS (http://warriorcatsonline.com/forums/member.php?u=604)

Scorchedpetal chuckled at the apprentice. "Ah, but slow is better some times." she said, a sweet laugh lacing her words. "Look, above, young one. Stars do not travel fast, in fact, it takes them as long as the moon to trek across the night sky." she explained. Oh, wait till Cliffheart heard this one! She smiled gingerly at the tom, then turned to the warrior next to her. "He's an ambitious one." she said, her voice warm and smoothe like honey. She then scented an odd smell coming from not too far away, and it was not of her clan. "Stop, Hummingpaw." she warned quietly and took in another breath.

Since their trek to the Clans, this place was still relatively new to him, as Opalflame hadn't a chance to fully explore the surrounding area yet. It sent chills down his spine though as he watched the water roll up in waves before dragging the sand back down with it's ghastly grip. A soft breeze accompanied the dying sun that was clearly setting against the water, sinking lower and lower. No other noises were present other than the quiet lapping of the waves against the shore, and the gentle hum of crickets nearby. It was definitely prettier than SkyClan's old territory, that was something Opalflame was sure of. He'd never been a fan, it had always been too close to the neighborhoods he grew up in; too close to the past that he just wanted to forget about altogether. Because of this, he didn't necessarily have the pull towards his Clan's former home as some of them did, and was actually excited about making the journey to four other Clans.

The journey had been a wonderful success, but thinking of the journey brought back unwanted memories, and for a brief moment the tom's eyes clouded over with passing grief; his mother. Right before he had joined SkyClan, his mother had been slaughtered before his own eyes. She hadn't been able to reach the end of their long journey, and a dull ache settled deep within the SkyClan warriors heart as he remembered how jubilant she had been to be apart of a Clan. She would've loved this, Opalflame thought with a soft smile, a light brightening up his gaze once more.

"Ah, you have much to learn Hummingpaw if going fast is your only objective," the warror spoke, a light humor in his voice as he glanced at the young apprentices back. It had been some time since his last dusk patrol, and after coordinating with Scorhedpetal, decided that patrolling the outer borders would be best. "Slow allows us to keep our eyes peeled for intruders, such as any Syndicate cats trying to stir up trouble." At the mention of the rag tag group of rogues that SkyClan had constantly been having trouble with since they had arrived, Opalflame's eyes narrowed just a hare. He didn't like the smug fighters anymore than he liked ticks in his fur, and they were really starting to get on his nerves. He knew it was only a matter of time before Grousestar stepped up to say enough was enough, and when the time came, Opalflame felt more than ready to sink his claws into the fur of the flea-ridden pieces of crowfood.


Catching the strange odar at relatively the same moment as his older companion, the ginger tom also paused, allowing each limb to turn into stone. He could hear the blood rushing in his ears and parted his jaws to draw in more of the scent. Instinctively, he stepped to the front of the patrol, feeling the need to protect the others he had with him. Opalflame was not the type of cat to underestimate any SkyClan warriors ability to hold their own in a fight - and he knew Scorchedpetal was more than capable of doing just that - but these were his Clanmates. The cats his mother had given her life to get him to; he would die protecting any one of them. "If someone is there, show yourself. We don't take kindly to strangers," Opalflame called, raising his voice slightly as a stern tone settled into his throat and coated the words he spoke. Especially with all the rogue and Dusk Syndicate trouble going on lately he added to himself as an after thought, letting his muscles tense up to better prepare himself for, well, anything. Eyes narrowed ever so slightly more as she scanned the horizon, trying to spot where the unique smell was coming from.

The night was early. The starry sky was young, filled with old, fading stars amidst a host of new-born ones, shining bright and filling the night with their youthful light. A silhouette of a furred four-legged creature walked softly along the shoreline. Her poise was graceful with each step, soft pink pads sinking into the ocean sand, no longer scorched and hot from the sun, but soft and cool from the chilly night time breeze. She was lost in thought as she approached the seastones. Her salmon-pink irises rested on the sand before her as she strode at an even pace. This cat was exceptionally fluffy, and her marshmallow-y fur billowed in the night breeze. Despite this creatures delicate nature, it had no tail. Well, it did, but it was considerably short, especially considering that she was a domestic feline. She was, in fact, a bobtail, one of the very few cat species bred with a short tail, rather than a long, majestic banner. This gave her a bit of a quirky demeanor, which was made up for in her intellect.

This was Elumen; she had chosen the life of a nomad since she was a teenager, sent away by her parents, as was the ritual of the strange, exotic band of cats she had come from. Her birthplace had come from the far, distant mountains; a place where it was much colder, hence the thick fur, built for polar temperatures. She was amazed that she could travel this far, and encounter this many adventures, by the time she had reached the peak of her adulthood, the age she was at now. During her journeys, she had learned so much, seen so many new and amazing things, made so many friends, and acquired a remarkable amount of knowledge of the world. For that, she was forever in gratitude. However, as she continued to leave paw prints in the sand behind her, she felt that, perhaps, she had become nothing more than that. Pawprints that once trod across great structures, pawprints that were left in old friends hearts and memories. The more she thought about it, the more she began to wonder: What would it be like to live a simple, family life? What would it be like to have a place to call home? To built a family? These concepts, though simple, were foreign to her.

While these thoughts came into her mind like the slowly crashing waves of the ocean shore, she began to approach a rockier area of beach. As she continued, more, and larger stones appeared in her path, before there was a whole pile of mighty boulders spread out ahead of her. Stones. Elumen loved large stones; they reminded her of her birthplace, a place filled with mountainous rocks to climb and explore. She welcomed a feeling of nostalgia that came over her as she bounded onto a flat boulder, and another, and another. She was a natural, powerful jumper and climber, and she was happy to be in her natural habitat for a while. Looking up at the stars, she realized it must be time for her to rest for the night, and this seemed like the perfect place.

The peach-furred bobtail began to sniff around the area, as if to ensure that there were no foxes of badgers that might already have claimed this beautiful structure. Instead, she was surprised to find a feint trace of feline. Lots of them. It seemed stale...yet, fresh. Rather perplexed, she continued to sniff around. Suddenly, she heard distant voices. Her head and eyes shot up like a deer in headlights (though, considerably calmer, as she was always well-composed). Perhaps these were the cats that lived in this structure. As a precaution, she routinely would retreat into hiding so that she could get a good view of the cats, in order to determine whether or not these cats would be welcoming or unwelcoming. Quiet and careful now, the fae slunk into a patch of nearby bushes.

Her breath was shallow as she waited for the cats to approach. They were making small talk, she could hear. But she couldn't hear them well enough. They seemed like they were just outside her hiding place, but she needed to get closer, to hear what they were saying. She tried to take a delicate and careful step forward, but her pad fell onto unexpected twigs, which snapped, and caused her to fidget in surprise. Now, she could see through the leaves, that all eyes were alert and on her. Well, no use in trying to hide now. Whatever form of greeting she would receive, she would have to cope. The she-cat may look quirky, but she was a decent fighter.

Elumen's eyes seemed to gleam from within the shadows of the bushes, glinting in the dim moonlight. Slowly and cautiously, she stepped forward, rustling more leaves as she emerged from the shrubbery, becoming more visible to the opposing cats in the blue luminescent light. She quickly took in each cat's appearance: Two full-grown cats, one much younger. She knew that if they attacked, she wouldn't be able to take on three of them, so her body movements were kept wary and un-offensive, as if walking on eggshells. She was now standing before them, head held high despite her somewhat submissive manners. "Hello," Her voice was low, yet smooth, "Is this your land?"

[Sorry for the delay, I didn't see this /v\" ]

The young tom rolled his eyes and clicked his tongue and continued to shift the sand beneath his paws, hoping to find a shell, any size would do. He hated it when warriors acted like they knew so much more, he knew just as much as they did, possibly more. Although they had the experience he had the intelligence, he had heard from other warriors and elders, he had listened to their tales, although he didn't listen to every warrior in the clan, he didn't need to. He didn't like to socialize, especially with this lot, but it couldn't be helped, his mentor was Starclan knows where and he had to get out of the camp anyways, he would have just preferred to be by himself rather than with two know it all warriors. Upon the molly's statement, no, rather analogy, he swiveled his head and glared at the warrior, his green eyes lit up with annoyance, those annoyed him the most. "You don't think I know that? Slow doesn't save your clanmates, if your fast enough you may just be able to prevent the problem before it begins." he stated, his tail lashed behind him. He went back to turning up the rough sand to find his sister the perfect shell, although he knew that his sister wasn't picky about such things he still liked to bring her the best that he could find whenever he went out on his little adventures, it was the least he could do for family.

As the bushes shuddered he didn't have time to think, all he saw was a flash of fur as the two older cats lurched in front of him, his heart felt as though it stopped as fear gripped it. After a few seconds he realized that it was just a loner, his emerald green optics danced with annoyance and anger as he pushed his way past the warrior. "I can look after myself thank you very much." he hissed, swiveling he spotted the cat that decided that it would be hilarious to scare the fur off of him. Hummingpaw's fur bristled and his tail lashed behind him "Land? You mean territory?" he quipped, his fur smoothing out, he wasn't in danger, by the looks of her she seemed surprised, although her body language didn't express her surprise the flash of waryness expressed it. The white, grey spotted apprentice stepped forward and cocked his head to the side "And no this doesn't belong to us, it belongs to all four clans...which you probably don't know about huh?" he sighed, his eyes closing slowly, he could tell by the words she used and the submissiveness of her body language.

"Hummingpaw," Scorchedpetal growled lowly, before she lifted her head to the loner and gave a smile. Telling by the movement and the other she-cat, she meant no harm. She smiled and dipped her head to her. "Hello, and Hummingpaw is right, this belongs to us all, mostly belonging to the sea. No scent ever stays except the one of the salt in the water." she stated. "My name is Scorchedpetal, and, like I said this young one is Hummingpaw. Beside me is Opalflame." she said, and then gave a warm smile. "If it isn't a crime to ask, but what is your business here? It is obvious you are not of the clans, nor are you of the Syndicate." she asked, tilting her head. She hated the Syndicate, and was relieved this one had no scent of it. She examined the molly, looking up and down from her. She breathed in, trying to sense others but to no luck. Maybe she was a traveling loner? Or a rogue with good acting skills. The way Cliffheart was thinking was starting to soak into her own mindset and so she breathed in and turned to the apprentice. "Hummingpaw, calm yourself. We show no threat unless they do. We are new here, remember?" she warned.

Petalpaw (http://stormofcats.weebly.com/petalpaw.html) Padded towards the sea. Her feet trembling as she looked over the cliff. If I jump, I will see Galepaw. The Ginger splotched molly's fur whipped around her, the wind smashing into her. She looked into the abyss, and the abyss stared back. She walked closer. Closer. Closer. She was barely staying still, and she wondered if that was good.Her whiskers whipping in the breeze, she took a step forward.

And jumped.

Peace and quiet. That was what the Seastones offered. Well, aside from the crashing of waves, the roaring of the sea, the rumbling of the tide and the mocking seabirds. The gulls swooped overhead, probably arguing over a shiny piece of twoleg garbage, nothing of concern to the cat who slunk along amongst the rocks. A lithe, sleek, yellow beast climbed over stones, always out of reach of the salted ocean, their sunny coat flickering like soft firelight as they wove their way across the shore, leisurely and yet to fast for anycat to get a proper look at their nearly triangular face. Snakelike, the creature wriggled between two rocks, their tail flickering for nearly a heartbeat before being whisked briskly into the darkness of the gap in a rubble-like heap of rocks. On the other side, out came a golden head followed by a body and again, a tail, as the animal made its way nearly parallel with the cliff and yet going nearer. They walked with such self-assurance it was as if they had walked this path many, many times, and not a single clever rock tricked their paws which practically danced across what was turning from stone to shell-littered shore. Feet barely stirring the pale sands, the feline left a dappled path after themself in the ground until they were slithering along the spongey sand that an occasional detirmined wavelet would sweep over.

"Hummingpaw," Scorchedpetal growled lowly, before she lifted her head to the loner and gave a smile. Telling by the movement and the other she-cat, she meant no harm. She smiled and dipped her head to her. "Hello, and Hummingpaw is right, this belongs to us all, mostly belonging to the sea. No scent ever stays except the one of the salt in the water." she stated. "My name is Scorchedpetal, and, like I said this young one is Hummingpaw. Beside me is Opalflame." she said, and then gave a warm smile. "If it isn't a crime to ask, but what is your business here?

Elumen shifted her weight from her left shoulder to her right slightly as the trio of cats went into introductions, explanations, and questions. This strange cat was very observant; she picked up on the short-temperedness of the younger cat---Hummingpaw, so it seemed. She had been able to tell almost instantly upon first glance of the group before her; his furrowed brows and down-facing cranium offered her subtle cues. By understanding one's body language, one can determine whether or not the opposite creature intends harm or intends friendliness. Hummingpaw didn't intend harm, that was for sure---but he didn't offer a friendly demeanor either. A thought of amusement briefly crossed the back of Elumens mind; for some reason, the behaviors of grumpy cats was rather funny to the bobtail. She could already tell that, despite this young one's dismissive expression, she could like this tom.

Her attention briefly drifted to the cat in the middle---Scorchedpetal was her name. A ferocious title to match such a bold stature, Elumen noted. This fae seemed to be the leader of the group; she could tell by the high position this cat held her head, and of course by the commands she gave to her companions. Scorchedpetal offered her a smile, and the loner knew she meant to be friendly as well.

Finally, Elumen examined the third and older tom, Opalflame. This cat intrigued her. From what she could tell, this feline was the watch and guard over the other members of his patrol. She could sense his gaze over-watching everyone here, his stance sturdy and ready to act if anything were to get out of hand. Yet, he was also relaxed; a sign of confidence, and perhaps trust...a trust in his own ability to protect, or a trust in his capable companions? He was watching her with furrowed brows. He had previously ordered her to come out of her hiding place, clearly wanting to know what the danger was, if danger was a possibility. Even though his gaze bore into hers, she found herself admiring this cat---he had a strong sense of nobility, in her eyes.

All of this had passed through Elumen's mind in milliseconds, and she returned Hummingpaw's exasperation remarks in due time, "Indeed, I am not familiar with your protocols regarding marked land---pardon me, 'territory'," Elumens tone was calmly structured and respectful, "And yet, I am familiar with other cat groups called 'clans', a good several sunrises away from here. I wonder if you run things similarly?" This question was more likely her just speaking her own thoughts aloud, and she turned to gaze off into the trees for a moment while she had this thought. Then she continued after just a moment and said, "Nevermind that, that's not important. What is important, however, is that you understand why I am here, on your land--territory, that is--or, whatever four clans that collectively owns these rocky ocean shores, as you say. Anyway, I am to be called Elumen, or Elu, as I allow those closest to me to call me. My only business here is to search for a warm and safe place to rest---I had originally planned on sheltering among these boulders, but then when we remarkably crossed paths I had already expected them to be claimed by some creature or another. Not to worry---they are all yours. My only request is to be permitted to reside here a few nights, so that I may be able to restore my aching paws and empty stomach, so I may continue on my rather...non-destinational journey."

After her well thought-out explanation, she stood quietly, patiently awaiting a response from them, mostly expecting something similar to 'Access denied. Scram.' However, she knew well that her presumptions couldn't always be trusted. Sometimes, the kindness of some creatures came through in the most unexpected places.

[Ack! I'm so so so sorry that is late ;w; ]

The white apprentice turned to glare at the molly, his green eyes blazed with annoyance. Interacting with others wasn't his strong point, and in all honesty he didn't plan on fixing it, there were very few cats that he got along with, the ones here were not apart of that small group, but this newcomer intrigued him. He padded forward and cocked his head to the side, ignoring scorchedpetals statement at the moment, there were more important questions at hand, the molly smelled of far away lands and she had the tongue of many different cats, she was a mystery that he planned on solving. He flicked his tail and peeked his ears at the mention of other clans "There are more?" he asked with curiosity more than amazement, and then he realized that although she uses the same words they may mean different things than what he may think, which in turn made the tom more curious "What's their clan names? Are you sure they're clans?" he asked, his leaf green optics flickered with interest. He wanted to know more, and there was no one else in the clan that could help him with this desire of his, often times he had been thinking about sneaking out and interacting with the other clan cats that they had recently founded, but he didn't plan on getting in trouble this soon in his life, so he saved that idea for later. Hummingpaw flicked his ear and kept a straight face despite his excitement, he wished to keep her here until he soaked up all the knowledge she had, this cat who called herself elumen, so he gourmet a plot in his mind, didn't take long. "I don't see why you can't stay here, grousestar woulsnt mind it I don't think." he stated, turning his sharp gaze back upon the two warriors behind him, he knew he would get scolded for this but he didn't care, all he cared for was the knowledge the molly could offer.

Elmpaw heaved a sigh in relief as he reached the Seastones. I just needed to get out of Riverclan camp, I'm Shadowclan...This storm has changed me so much. Why aren't I logically or sensible anymore, I use to think I was fearless? Elmpaw puzzled. Before the storm. Elmpaw was the apprentice trying to solve problems and thought he had no sense of fear. He could remain calm while a badger was in camp or a fox was attacking his brother he could stay in the tree and calmly tell his brother what to do, his heart didn't even start pounding while doing that. He also didn't understand goofing off, romanance or fun. Yet in the flood he fell in love with a young she-cat during the flood and was goofing around with Gingerpaw and Dungpaw while traveling towards Riverclan and while in Riverclan he felt terrorized of every Riverclanner. He hated his change. Dungpaw got braver and I became a coward...no fair...well that's life I guess.. he wasn't thinking logically part of him wanted to end his life right then and now...Maybe in Starclan I'll be back to my old self...but what if I'm not and my brother is so happy with his change I can't bring him back to his old self. What if I'm not back to my old self then, that'd be a waste of my life...I could save Dungpaw the misery of sorrow by telling him I'm leaving the clan to become a kittypet and then after he waves me off and believes I'm walking to the twoleg place then I can kill myself...I'll give it a moon to see if I adjust to being like this atleast...giving my lack of logic and sense of fear a shot at life, I mean, love Could be fun, I guess...

[Mango]

Greenpaw slunked over I'm early, don't stress they'll be here soon, and if someone else shows up, I'm just here to get space. Yellowpaw got held back...
Redpaw slipped out of the shrub," RAWR!" He hissed aggressively

Greenpaw lurched his heart pounding," THIS ISN'T FUNNY REDPAW!" He gasped heaving.

Redpaw smirked," I know, but you're reaction kills me every time."

Greenpaw shrugged," So where's Purplepaw and Pinkpaw?"

Redpaw smirked," Yellowpaw?"

Greenpaw sighed," Held up with apprentice duties."

Redpaw cackled," Pinkpaw is being lectured on fishing in Thunderclan and Purplepaw is waiting for her..."

Orangepaw, from the older litter arrived," FOXDUNG!" He spat," I hate this clan! It's so fleabrained!"

Redpaw scowled," Shadowclan must seriously suck then if you're not fighting or able to pull pranks..."

Orangepaw raised an eyebrow," Not that. This Starclan thing, then the elders and kits eat first, the warriors do not kill, the entire warriorcode is a piece of foxdung!"

Redpaw shrugged," Yeah, The warriorcode sucks, and Starclan's fake, but you can fight others and pretend to suck at hunting so you get fed without earning it."

Orangepaw blinked," I'm a kittypet! I don't fight nor do I hunt or patrol! I bask in the sun and eat! Besides I want normal kittypet food!"

Redpaw's eyes twitched and he said nothing.

Greenpaw meowed carefully," Have you tried rabbit, if you prefer it you can join Windclan, they focus more on running than hunting and fighting."

Redpaw snorted,"Weak."

Orangepaw scowled," Bluepaw needs me and rabbit is foul."

Bluepaw entered," I got lost, sorry. No one out-does me! I'm the toughest apprentice out there!"

Redpaw snarled," You don't remember I'm better!"

Bluepaw paused," We'll battle at the end of this meeting."

Yellowpaw arrived," I'm here, sorry those elders stories take forever!"

Orangepaw spat," That's another thing I hate!"

Yellowpaw shrugged," I don't mind them, and can everyone calm down, so that Purplepaw and Pinkpaw don't thing we're savage rouges now that there approaching!" She shouted

Everyone was silently looking at eachother.

Pinkpaw smiled," Hello! I'm here! Sorry I was fishing!"

Purplepaw snorted," You also swim. I'm suprised you haven't joined Riverclan."

Everyone,but Pinkpaw laughed.

Pinkpaw objected," Thunderclan saved me, besides I need you Purplepaw!"

Redpaw snarled," I don't matter eh?"

Pinkpaw sighed," No. You do. You're just not as calm as her."

Orangepaw smirked," I hate Shadowclan, but from staying in Riverclan camp you're insane wanting to join Riverclan."

Bluepaw nodded," Yeah."

Yellowpaw sighed," It'll be lonely,but you do you."

Greenpaw scowled," Fish, okay..."

They bickered all night and learned nothing new of there parents before leaving at moonhigh.

Panic
Ferretpaw slowed to a pace where he trotted next to the young Shiverpaw, not wanting to act like he was controlling their whole journey. “We’ll be the best warriors the clan has ever seen by far.” He remarked with a warm purr stirring in his throat as he agreed with the apprentice beside him. The sky was still rather dark above them as they headed through the edge of the forest, their paws brushing over softened green grass and loose dirt with each step that they took. “Thanks for coming with me on this journey, Shiverpaw.” Ferretpaw decided to say to them, “You have to be one of my only friends that I have, but you’ve also been the greatest too. I can tell that we’ll have a great time together out here.” He said this with a small smile on his maw as they drew closer to the Seastones.

[Sorry I took so long! I've been incredibly busy.

Shiverpaw smiled a bit as well. "You're one of mine too..." They trailed off for a moment, searching for words. "You're welcome!" Their voice was bright and chipper. "It's an adventure, right? We'll have fun, and come back as Windclan's greatest warriors!" The two soon padded up to Seastones, where the silver apprentice stopped for a moment. This is where the Clans meet on the night of the full moon... It's so big!

[ It's okay! I've been busy too. ]
“Of course, it’s an adventure!” The dark-furred apprentice exclaimed with a proud purr, “We will see so many things that the other apprentices in our clan merely dream of seeing!” With that, Ferretpaw gave a slightly amused chuckle, a happy smile present on his maw as they headed along. After a few moments of walking in silence, they came across the mighty Seastones, where all the clans gathered together as one. As Shiverpaw halted beside him to look upon this, he did as well, amazement and pure awe sparkling within his amber-hued gaze. “Who knows?” He mentioned to his dear friend, lightly nudging him, “Maybe you’ll be up there someday, as leader of Windclan.” He said with another purr rumbling in his throat with each word that he now spoke. “You’d be a great leader, Shiverstar,” Ferretpaw added, his tail twitching behind him as the moonlight seemed to shine upon their pelts now.

Shallowskip' she paws prickled with excitement. She had escaped, no, left, SkyClan territory for some just plain alone time. Since she felt like she'd been contained in the SkyClan territory so long, Shallowskip just wanted to get out. Since she didn't want to leave Clan territory, the female joust decided to keep it to Seastones. It was a nice place, and she felt relaxed as she sat below a large sycamore tree, her tail tip flicking back and forth slowly.

Sorry it was so choppy, CandyFlossCat

(ah no problem)
Tigerslash, a lean, dark brown Toyger, walked to the Seastones. He needed to get away from his Clanmates for a bit. He saw a flash of fur, ears flicking back as he narrowed his eyes. "Who are you?" He spat. He'd come here for solitude, and now some cat was here. Her scent was of SkyClan, definitely someone he'd never seen before. He was ready to defend himself if she attacked. Tigerslash wasn't going to be pushed around or be thought of as defenseless by a SkyClan cat.

Shallowskip froze, her tail stopping mid-flick. Her breath fought in her throat; another cat was here. Getting to her paws, she padded from between the roots and approached the tom, a guarded look on her face. She had never seen this tom before, but he didn't look friendly. She tried to minimize her limp so as not to seem weak to the powerful warrior.

"I'm not trespassing." The she-cat meowed instinctively, forcing the fur to lie flat along her spine. It had prickled with uneasiness, and her eyes glimmered dully in the dark. Parting her jaws, Shallowskip drew in his scent. What was a ShadowClan cat doing here? She paused. Well, she though. Maybe he's just getting some freedom, like her.

She blinked in embarrassment. She hadn't even answered his question!
"Shallowskip." She meowed quietly, looking up at him with curiosity. She wanted to say 'Who are you, but instead, what came out wasn't the same.
"What are you?" She hadn't realized what she was saying wasn't what she meant, and waited for his reply, scuffing one small paw in the dust.

Tigerslash blinked as she turned. He should have stayed quiet, possibly, but that'd be weird. Just sneaking up upon someone. Tigerslash continued that creepy and stalker-like, so he had to say something at first! What if this cat was hostile? Or looking for someone? Or had some sort of thing involving Seastones? Or maybe she was here for the same reason as him, to escape camp for a bit.

"I know. It's basically open territory here, in my eyes." He mewed in reply. He chuckled slightly, though he felt a pang of guilt for starting off so hostile. The scent of SkyClan, different than his (pine), bathed his tongue and radiated from her. He was definite she was SkyClan, no questions needed. Unless she was just a fan of their territory. No, that was mouse-brained, he regretted that thought.

Shallowskip. That was an interesting name, it was..peaceful, almost. Assuming she'd just stumbled over her words, he flicked his tail. "Tigerslash." He mewed, dipping his head, eyes glowing with amusement at her little slip.

Shallowskip gave a nod, relaxing her shoulders as he himself seemed to relax his posture. She was glad the tom hadn't attacked her; as he said, it was open land. Seastones belonged to no cat. She had wondered how I thought was possible that she had encountered another cat; often when she came to Seastones, and it wasn't a gathering evening, she was alone.

She drew in the scent of pines, appreciating the sweet tang. The pines were always so neat smelling; similar slightly to her own leafy smell. Shallowskip gave a small nod as Tigerslash gave his name. A worry crease appeared on her orange tabby forehead. Why did he look so...weird? Was- oh no! She said something wrong. Quickly recalling what Shen had actually said, Shallowskip blinked. Oops. That was a mistake.

"That's a nice name." She meowed slowly, making sure she got her words correct. "Um...I don't be meant to be rude...but I never encountered another cat here when it's not gathering time. Not that I regret meeting you. I was just curious why." Wow. She sounded very weird. Shallowskip flattened her ears. Usually, she wasn't this flustered.

Tigerslash sat, his tail slowly curling around his paws as he watched her with amusement as she relaxed. Good. He wasn't going to be attacked or need to attack. He was glad of that. He only liked to attack intruders. Why hadn't he gone to the Gathering? Too many cats, all 5 Clans. Too much for him. Now he was here, with this Shallowskip cat. He didn't ask any questions, yet.

He streched, claws flexing as she realized her mistake. "Slip of the tongue?" He mused, tilting his head slightly. He rarely those. He was slick even with his speech. He liked that about himself. He chuckled slightly at her reaction, sitting back down, grooming his striped brown fur down. Tigerslash liked his fur, as it represented his name. Tiger was obvious, and slash for his powerful claws.


"You're name is quite nice, too." He replied. At her question, he blinked and considered his answer for a moment. "I don't like large crowds, Gatherings aren't for me. Why aren't you there?" He asked in return. Tigerslash answered truthfully why he wasn't at the Gathering, leaving out a few points he kept secret.

Shallowskip copied the tom, sitting down opposite him and curling her tail neatly across her small paws. His name was obviously given for his unique yet vibrant coat, and his suffix? Well, she didn't plan on finding the reason for that. Her tail flicked up and down on her paws as she studied him curiously. He didn't seem half bad for a ShadowClan cat.

"Yes," she meowed, containing her embarrassment through a twitch of her long whiskers. "They're pretty common for me." As Shallowskip listened to his next sentence, she gave a frown, trying to figure out his words. "Well..." she replied, her eyes narrowed in concentration. "It's not full moon right now. I do usually go, though." ((Her question was why are you here when it is not gathering time? Sorry for the confusion of words))

((Whelp, that was -much- shorter; I hate writer's block.

((O lol. Then he basically meant he wanted to get away from his Clan before the Gathering and will leave before it starts b/cause he dislikes crowds)))

"So how'd you get your name?" He mewed, tilting his head slightly. He just needed to keep a bit of light conversation going. Just a bit. He didn't like loud talking, but y'know, it was better than endless silence as they sat across from each other, looking at the stars or something. For a SkyClan cat, he had to admit, she wasn't too annoying. Tigerslash not finding you annoying was a great honor, she just..didn't know that yet.

Tigerslash nodded. "I usually guard camp. I just wanted to come here before the Gathering for some quiet." He mewed with a tiny shrug, his tail twitching as he pricked his ears and glanced quickly up at the sky, hoping the time didn't pass too quickly for once in his life.

Shallowskip shrugged, her ear twitching. "I don't know," she joked, her eyes sparked with humor. "I didn't name myself!" She let out a purr, then looked up at him. "Actually, I do know part. 'skip' if for my funny gait." She lifted her forepaw to show him it's shorter length. "I sorta skip when I run." Shallowskip nodded in agreement to his answer. "I get the feeling." She replied with a twitch of her whiskers. "SkyClan can get so...full sometimes. I just needed a break." She suddenly frowned slightly. Hopefully he wouldn't think she was sick of her clan.

Shallowskip shrugged, her ear twitching. "I don't know," she joked, her eyes sparked with humor. "I didn't name myself!" She let out a purr, then looked up at him. "Actually, I do know part. 'skip' if for my funny gait." She lifted her forepaw to show him it's shorter length. "I sorta skip when I run." Shallowskip nodded in agreement to his answer. "I get the feeling." She replied with a twitch of her whiskers. "SkyClan can get so...full sometimes. I just needed a break." She suddenly frowned slightly. Hopefully he wouldn't think she was sick of her clan.

"Well duh, I meant the skip part." Tigerslash mewed, bluffing slightly. He hadn't actually meant that, but better than sounding like a fool. He was a decent liar..or..bluffer, thank StarClan. If he was a bad liar, he would have been in many situations that ended...differently. "Huh." He mewed with interest, nodding slightly as she explained. "Good, I get looks from others like I said the oddest thing in the world." He chuckled slightly, his tail curled as he purred slightly. "Same with ShadowClan, but, y'know, they're good most of the time..just a bit..much at some times. Like all Clans, I suppose. Heh."

Shallowskip curled her tail in amusement at his bluff. She always found it amusingly when big, almost-scary tom cats were trying to cover up a mistake or were feeling a bit uncomfortable. Maybe it made them less...intimidating. Something like that. Shallowskip kinda liked this tom; she had a feeling he was different then what met the eye. "Yes," she meowed. "Though I bet you don't let it ruffle your fur. They probably look at you becuase your so..." she dragged off. What would she say? Tall, maybe. Uniquely-patterned? Naw, that sounded weird. Big? Well it's not like that wouldn't be awkward. As saractic thoughts ran through her head, the she-cat blinked, listening to the rest of his words.Shallowskip was glad that she wasn't alone in the feeling. Clans could get overwhelming. "Do you come here often?" She asked. "When you need to, you know, think and stuff."

Hybrid stood in shock his head was spinning Is the Dusk Syndicate no more? How in the name of Halite is that possible? Wait...does this mean I can reform the Dusk Syndicate and call in Hybrid Syndicate and be commander, and if do find Halite lost, I’ll appoint him co-commander

Tigerslash blinked. His tail curled around his paws as his pelt grew hot at his mistake. He hated the feeling, but then again, it wasn't as bad as usual. He could easily atone for this one. He was supposed to be big and intimidating, but he felt opposite now. He huffed, though a bit of amusement sparked in his gaze. He smiled slightly. He rarely smiled in his own Clan, but somehow Shallowskip had the ability to make him smile. He chuckled as she drifted off, obviously thinking for the correct word to say. It took her a few minutes, to his amusement, before she mewed something else. "Every once in awhile, when the Clan gets too full or loud." He admitted, shrugging slightly. "It is a nice place to think, as well."

Shallow skip nodded, realizing truth in his words. Her maw curled up as she smiled . This tom was pretty decent, even though he wasn't RiverClan. "Hey," she meowed, a sly light creeping into her gaze. "Have you ever gone for a swim?"

Tigerslash saw her maw curl up as she smiled, and a pang of nervousness struck his chest, he knew she was going to ask him to do something, he just didn't know yet. "Yes?" He mewed, his ears angled forward, his nerves not subsiding. "Nope. I'm assuming you have, you're RiverClan after all." He teased.

Shallowskip let out a brief purr as she teased him. "Yes, of course! It's very nice." She smiled, tail curling up. "I bet everyone would love it!" The she-cat tipped her head to the side, a teasing going in her eyes, long tail flicking back and forth. She wasn't feeling sentimental and quiet anymore! Something about him seemed to give her energy. "Shall I teach you?" Shallowskip asked, long whiskers twitched quickly with amusement. Teasing her clanmates was always enjoyable, and seemed to bring her closer to those she interacts with. Trickster~ @CandyFlossCat

Tigerslash chuckled. "I don't know, looks cold..and wet." He mewed, stating the obvious. He couldn't see a ShadowClan, WindClan, or ThunderClan cat swimming without being forced. "Heh, I bet. Good luck trying to tell someone from the other Clans that." He mewed with a smirk. He felt a tinge of worry. What was this she-cat trying to do? She seemed to have gained energy, and he seemed to have gained a bit as well. "Er..sure. It might be a useful skill to have in case of..flooding or something." He mewed, a bit off-put by her question. He realized his stutter and cleared his throat. "I mean, yes."

Challowskip gave a quick twitch of her whiskers before leaping rather lopsidedly over to the water. She couldn't believe she had won the tom cat over so quickly! This would be fun! "It's not hard once you get used to it." She promised him with a smile. The she turned to him with a nod. "Yes," she replied, her voice sounding a bit more serious. "ShadowClan recently had a flood; it may have aided them to have known how to swim." Turning back to the water, the female stepped in, relishing in the cold jolt that it sent through her spine. "Come on in!" Shallowskip purred welcomingly, rolling a pebble under her paw.

Pinkpaw slipped in I hope my mentor doesn’t notice my absence. I heard a kittypet friend wished to speak to us. she saw Rainbowsprinkle and her eyes lit up a lit,” Rainbowsprinkle.” She whispered softly.

Rainbowsprinkle’s eyes grew large as she bounded over to Pinkpaw,” PINK! You can protect me from the savage wild cats right?”

Pinkpaw smiled,” It’s Pinkpaw now. And I’m not the best fighter. I am one of them now. Just a decent one.” She whispered quietly.

Rainbowsprinkle nodded,” Right. When are your littermates arriving. Since you all live together.”

Pinkpaw whispered softly,” Purplepaw and Redpaw should be on the way. And I don’t live with Bluepaw, Orangepaw, Greenpaw, and Yellowpaw.” She sighed

Rainbowsprinkle nodded then saw Purplepaw,” PURPLE-paw!” She smiled giving a bounce of excitement

Purplepaw sighed,” What do you want?”

Rainbowsprinkle sighed,” Wait for your littermates to get her. Gah you too look so cute together!”

Purplepaw’s eye twitched slightly.

Redpaw stalked into the clearing,” What do you want, Kittypet?”

Rainbowsprinkle glanced at Redpaw,” whoo. What happened Redpaw. and you are a kittypet too. Just wild kittypet.”

Redpaw snarled,” Life happened, kittypet. I’m no kittypet.”

Greenpaw silently entered.

Yellowpaw smiled,” Rainbowsprinkle! Howdy do!”

Rainbowsprinkle smiled,” Good! You?”

Yellowpaw purred,” Awesome!”

Bluepaw smirked and entered her voice rather cool sounding,” Greetings Rainbowsprinkle.”

Rainbowsprinkle smiled,” You aswell Bluepaw.”

Orangepaw sulked in,” Hi.”

Rainbowsprinkle purred,” Orangepaw!”

Redpaw snapped,”We’re here. Get on with it!”

Rainbowsprinkle smiled,” Well...I was thinking since your housefolks rebuilt the home you might want to return. Whatcha say?”

Redpaw snarled,” I’m not a kittypet.”

Greenpaw’s eyes flicked around silently.

Redpaw lunged at Greenpaw,” WINDCLANNER!” He screeched claws extended and tumbled with Greenpaw on the grass.

Yellowpaw saw Purplepaw,” THUNDERCLANNER!” She spat attacking Purplepaw.

Pinkpaw frowned,” Thunderclan’s my home. I pledged loyalty to them. I’m going home.”


Bluepaw snorted,” As did I to Shadowclan. I’m leaving aswell.”

Orangepaw nodded,” I’m forced to be loyal to my littermates and Shadowclan. I’m going home to Shadowclan.”

Bluepaw and Orangepaw left for Shadowclan.

Pinkpaw left for Thunderclan.

Rainbowsprinkle stood shocked at the screeching mess of four apprentices,” RED! PURPLE! GREEN! YELLOW! STOP IT! YOU ARE LITTERMATES YOU LOVE EACHOTHER! OH WELL..WHY DID I bother, you turned savage, all of you.”

Redpaw flung Greenpaw into the grass,” We may be littermates, but clans come first. And my clan is at war with Greenpaw’s clan. So I have to fight him.”

Greenpaw limped home silently.

Yellowpaw narrowed her eyes,” I’m at war with Purplepaw’s clan. See ya later.” She followed Greenpaw to Windclan.

Purplepaw snarled,” I didn’t attack first, I defended myself, my clan, my home.”

Redpaw snarled,” Go away kittypet. Your unwelcome here.”

Rainbowsprinkle whimpered away.

Redpaw and Purplepaw walked home.

Tigerslash's ears pricked with alarm as she leaped over to the water, lopsidedly, and stood waiting for him. He got to his paws, cautious, and walked over. The churning water did not look inviting, but he forced himself to trust her. He swallowed and glanced back up at Shallowskip. "Okay.." he mumbled, ears pinned back. The water lapped at the stone, and he chewed his lip. "I suppose, perhaps some would have escaped without injury." He suddenly felt a bit more reassured. He followed, the water lapped at him, plastering his pelt to his sides, sending a cold jolt through his muscles and spine. He shivered, clumsily sloshing through the liquid. He bit his lip and found himself warming up, slowly, and getting used to the water.

"There you go!" Shallowskip purred. "It's not so bad." She lightly flicked one of his ears with her tail tip, knowing it was a sigh of uncomfortableness. "Still a little tense?" She teased, flashing a smile. This was fun! "We can go farther out, if you want." Shallowskip loved swimmingly despite the colder temperatures. And, when the river got to cold and froze, she liked to walk on the shallow parts. Maybe she could teach him to ice-walk if they saw each other in the leaf-bare, when it was coldest! Trickster~

Once he started to warm up, Tigerslash agreed. "It's not..that bad actually." He mumbled, his tail flicked through the water, eyes alight with surprise. "A bit, I mean, I don't usually go into the water willingly." He admitted, giving a tiny shrug, his eyes shining. Tigerslash's striped pelt floated around him, dancing in the water as he sloshed through it, the movement growing easier, he soon found himself able to lift from the ground. "Alright." He mumbled. Currently, his paws touched the ground. He was a bit nervous, but the water was still, so he was sure he wouldn't drown.

Shallowskip smiled, wading deeper so she began to swim. Churning the water with her paws, she didn't a turn in the water and faced him. "Well," she purred with a smile. "I guess I'm special!" She didn't mean for it to come out that way, but it did. She watched his curiously, wondering how he'd respond. ((Sorry for length))

Burrpaw still laid sprawled on the bloodstained rocks, left behind by his Clan after the battle. His Clan had most likely left him behind, believing him to be dead from the blood that was lost from numerous scratches and a particularily bad bite in his hind leg. If he had seen a cat looking the way he did at that moment, he would have believed them to be dead as well. The only sign that the brown tabby was alive was the shallow breathing which could have easily been mistaken for the breeze ruffling his sticky, scarlet-stained pelt. The Bengal tom could no longer feel Badgers weight curled around him; his battle partner must've been taken by WindClan. Or he was dead too. That was just as probably from the last wound he had seen that large tom give the apprentice. He hoped not. Burrpaw found that he still could not wake. Although he could still feel and hear what happened around him, his brain would not collect any more imformation than that, leaving him paralyzed and unresponsive.

daydream looked around. the bodies were countless. it seemed as if there were a slighter here. even if the clans had won, they felt they had also lost in some sort of way. they themself had not treated their injuries, instead going back and seeing if there were cats that were left behind. their eyes caught sight of an apprentice. small. they didnt look like they were moving, but they had this feeling in their gut to walk up to them. so they did. their pawsteps felt like echos with how quiet the place was compared to a few minutes ago. they shivered. they padded up to burrpaw. they furrowed their brows. a cat so young--stripped of its life. they couldve saved him. they couldve. leaning down, they pressed their nose to the toms chest in slight grief. but their eyes only widened when they heard shallow breathing, and a heart beat. pulling away, they were immediately awakened with a new motivation,¨burrpaw,¨ they spoke softly,¨open your eyes if you can hear me. just to let me know.¨ they mewed desperately. he looked like he was in bad shape as it was. ¨im going to get you back to shadowclan,okay? im here.¨

Out of the drifting darkness Burrpaw was trapped in, he heard a voice. Just a whisper on a little wind. He felt warmth on his chest that pulled away quickly. The voice. Who did the voice belong to? The tom's clouded mind sifted through names and voices, until finally, he settled on the medicine cat. Daydream. Burrpaw heard them ask him to open his eyes but he could not. He was stuck, hovering between life and death. Badger's body behind him was the only thing he had anchoring him to life. Instead, he kept himself breathing, taking a slightly deeper breath, hoping that would be enough to let Daydream know Burrpaw heard them.

daydream had heard the shallow breathing, it was enough to know that this was a living being, and that he was in pain. they had their own injuries, finding it hard to stand up,much less even walk, but they did so anyway. they had to, they were holding a cats life in their paws. ¨ive got you. im going to take you home. keep breathing for me.¨ they mewed. they leaned down, grabbing the apprentice by the scruff, before hauling his limp body onto their back completely balancing it there. they suddenly became aware of everything on their body. the scratches on their face and throat, and flank, how burrpaws body would sometimes rub against one of those, combined with the crisp autumn air chilling the wounds further. they shivered. their paws felt heavy, they were tired, hungry. they felt like they could pass out simply from lack of energy, much less their wounds. but instead, they pushed onward, padding forward towards shadowclan territory.

Tigerslash's paws churned through the water messily, good enough to keep him afloat, but not as neat as Shallowskip's strokes. He faced her, his belly fur seemed to drag him down, though he didn't see it as too much of a hindrance. "I suppose you are" he chuckled, he found the water somewhat calming, surprisingly, as it gently bobbed him. Tigerslash smiled, glad he'd taken the risk.

Shallowskip danced through the water, joy lighting her eyes. She loved swimming more than anything. As she heard him respond, a smile slid over her maw. "Thanks! Your pretty brave for a SkyClan cat. Not many of them would trust a RiverClan fishbrain enough to go swimming!"

"Heh, I guess so. I mean, I always thought it wasn't that bad looking." Tigerslash mewed, his legs churning more confident. His strokes were getting better, and he wasn't sloshing around as clumsily. Tigerslash flicked his tail through the water, creating a small ripple. His eyes were shimmering, and he smiled at Shallowskip.

The soft murmur of waves lapping at the shore drew Cloudyfoot instinctively towards the ocean. Water was the gray tabby's home, and anything less would be a disgrace. Born and raised in RiverClan, he knew that the water was no threat, and openly embraced it, padding on the wet ground. The home of the gathering was quiet and beautiful, home to the same twittering of sparrows and songbirds that haunted the willows of RiverClan territory, yet more soothing. The scent of the sea made Cloudyfoot relax for a moment, forgetting everything; the taxing work of a warrior was never finished, as was this seemingly endless patrol. All of the other warriors were busy trying to hunt in the cold leaf-bare weather, in vain, of course. The river had frozen over, and a fresh blanket of snow now coated the ground, sending everything to its dens. Though it was a patrol, Cloudyfoot would be gracious if he could catch even the smallest morsel. The thought now settling in Cloudyfoot’s thoughts, he raised his head to sky, parting his jaws to welcome the biting scents of leaf-bare. Before he had a chance to discern the odors that were fresh, Cloudyfoot detected a trace of squirrel, leading him to the part of Seastones where the territories divided. Ahead, he knew that the markers of RiverClan and SkyClan stood, and a crestfallen expression mounted his face, knowing that the squirrel was now far into SkyClan territory. Cloudyfoot whirled around, heading back to the salty aroma of Seastones, the big stones towering in the near distance. Perhaps it would be soon enough where he would find something or other to bring back to camp.

Birdsong filled the air, and the ocean water lapped in gentle waves against the sandy shore. The shining sun did nothing to warm the bitter chill in the leaf-bare atmosphere.
A young she-cat picked her way delicately among the sand, shaking her paws in disgust, her lip curled in a repulsed snarl. She hated the feel of the gritty granules in between her toes. But it was her fault, she supposed, for volunteering to go on her first solo patrol alone to renew the borders and help replenish the dwindling Fresh kill pile. The young warrior just never expected the SkyClan territory to go this far.
The she-cat, a pretty brown and white tabby named SparrowWhisper, tasted the air for preyscent. There! Just to her left, about five tail lengths away, an unsuspecting squirrel was nibbling on a peanut in its paws.
SparrowWhisper fluidly dropped into a hunting crouch, eyes slitted in concentration as she slowly inched towards the squirrel. Stalking closer, she wriggled her hindquarters in preperation to pounce.
Suddenly the squirrel glanced up and shot off at the sight of its predator. SparrowWhisper growled in annoyance and bounded after it.
As she pursued it, she was suddenly aware she had crossed into RiverClan territory. Whirling around, she prepared to go back the way she came, squirrel forgotten. But suddenly she felt a heavy weight slam into her, knocking her down. She slashed with her hind paws, hissing and spitting, and felt a sense of satisfaction as her claws tore at the enemy's belly. The heavy weight was then gone and she whirled around to see a snarling tom with a heavy RiverClan scent. SparrowWhisper saw the challenging gleam in his eyes and prepared for a battle, also aware she was dangerously close to the water.

A young she-cat picked her way delicately among the sand, shaking her paws in disgust, her lip curled in a repulsed snarl. She hated the feel of the gritty granules in between her toes. But it was her fault, she supposed, for volunteering to go on her first solo patrol alone to renew the borders and help replenish the dwindling Fresh kill pile. The young warrior just never expected the SkyClan territory to go this far.
The she-cat, a pretty brown and white tabby named SparrowWhisper, tasted the air for preyscent. There! Just to her left, about five tail lengths away, an unsuspecting squirrel was nibbling on a peanut in its paws.
SparrowWhisper fluidly dropped into a hunting crouch, eyes slitted in concentration as she slowly inched towards the squirrel. Stalking closer, she wriggled her hindquarters in preperation to pounce.
Suddenly the squirrel glanced up and shot off at the sight of its predator. SparrowWhisper growled in annoyance and bounded after it.
As she pursued it, she was suddenly aware she had crossed into RiverClan territory. Whirling around, she prepared to go back the way she came, squirrel forgotten. But suddenly she felt a heavy weight slam into her, knocking her down. She slashed with her hind paws, hissing and spitting, and felt a sense of satisfaction as her claws tore at the enemy's belly. The heavy weight was then gone and she whirled around to see a snarling tom with a heavy RiverClan scent. SparrowWhisper saw the challenging gleam in his eyes and prepared for a battle, also aware she was dangerously close to the water.

Warmth spread from the wound that the SkyClan she-cat had opened, and Cloudyfoot knew that it was either fight or flight. Trying to calm his instincts, the tabby tom considered the she-cat. "Why were you hunting on RiverClan territory?" He challenged brusquely, his hackles raising. Cloudyfoot flexed his claws into the ground, his mind racing. How fast is she? How strong? Looking over SparrowWhisper, everything was answered. Not nearly this stature, Cloudyfoot knew that he could easily overpower the she-cat. But would that be enough? Cloudyfoot now turned his attention to his surroundings; the tide was almost close enough to shove her into it, and as a RiverClan warrior, it wouldnt faze him. Circling SparrowWhisper like prey, baring his teeth. "Why are you hunting on RiverClan territory?" He repeated, except this time, he gave the SkyClan cat no chance to reply. Launching himself, Cloudyfoot unsheathed his claws, aiming for her side which faced away from the sea; his force would surely knock her into the waves.

Cloudyfoot now turned his attention to his surroundings; the tide was almost close enough to shove her into it, and as a RiverA warrior, it wouldnt faze him. Circling SparrowWhisper like prey, baring his teeth. "Why are you hunting on RiverDale territory?" He repeated, except this time, he gave the SkyClan cat no chance to reply. Launching himself, Cloudyfoot unsheathed his claws, aiming for her side which faced away from the sea; his force would surely knock her into the waves.
RiverDale territory? XD )
SparrowWhisper considered her opponent carefully, sizing him up and studying him for signs of weaknesses. She had a few tricks up her paw, but she had to wait for the right moment. She unseathed her claws and prepared to leap, only to freeze at the tom's next words.
She wished to tell him the truth, that it had been an accident, but she knew he wouldn't believe her.
She widened her eyes in surprise, startled, as the tabby tom repeated the words in a snarl and then leaped at her. But the she-cat suspected his intention and leaped nimbly to the side.
However, at the last second, her hind paws slipped on the sand and she fell into the water, schreeching in surprise. The current started to sweep her away. She struggled desperately, whimpering and churning her paws, trying to gain control. Suddenly the waves pulled her under.

Cloudyfoot passed SparrowWhisper by a mouse-length, and her whiskers brushed his pelt. He landed with a splash in the water, water flicking up around him, splattering his pelt. Gripping his claws into the sand, sinking into the ground. His hind legs floated to the surface, the tide trying to drag him away, but his abnormally long claws saved him. His adversary, unfortunately, was swept away, and, not being of RiverClan, had no idea how to swim. Cloudyfoot let out a hiss of frustration. First, the she-cat trespasses, and now needed saving. "For StarClan's sake..." he muttered quietly. Bundling his launches under him, he wiggled his back, and launched himself into the waves, paddling to keep his head above the water. His amber eyes searched the tides until he could see the bobbing shape of SparrowWhisper. Swimming strongly.l over, he stuck his muzzle under the water. Salt flooded his senses, up his nose and filtered into his mouth. It was a disgusting taste, but he ignored it, plunging into the depths to retrieve the SkyClan cat. Getting a firm grip around her scruff, he pulled her above the water, and the waves threatened to overtake him, with the new burden he was carrying. Cloudyfoot pushed all of his might into getting back to shore, and when he did, he scrambled to drag the she-cat away from the ever-growing tide. When he did, he collapsed, hacking out water, his breathing rapid as he wheazed.

SparrowWhisper was dimly aware of being pulled from the water just as water had started to fill her lungs. When she hit the sandy shore she seemed unconcious for a moment or two until her eyes slowly blinked open. She turned her head in the sand, coughing out a bit of water before noticing the tom whom she had been fighting moments before laying beside her, in a similar weakened state. When it dawned on her that he had risked his life for her, she managed to weakly get to her paws and go over to him.
She stood over him a moment, then pawed his shoulder gently for his attention. ''I... I'm sorry. Thank you for saving me...'' she shuffled her paws nervously, her hostility gone. Now she felt a strong gratitude towards the tom. She just prayed he wouldn't be hostile towards her. Maybe, if he gave her a chance now, she could explain that she hadn't crossed the border deliberately.

Empress Of Evil

The shock of the orange and white tabbys new rank had only hit her now, a weight of he whole world being dropped onto her shoulders in the span of a few seconds. Her whole life had spun out of control and she couldn't quite keep a hold of all that was in her mind, the only thing calming enough was the sight of an ocean much bigger than herself to remind her that she wasn't indeed the center of the world. The she cat had slipped out just as the evening sun had started its lazy decent across the sky, hitting its peak and finally falling back towards the earth casting long shadows across the territory. The forest alight in a new golden glow as well as the rivers and moors, It was all so beautiful.

Just now she was in the home stretch towards the seastones, a demanding scent crossed her nostrils and stuck to the roof of her mouth sending a shiver down her spine. The sea was nearby, calling her as it crashed against the land like it wanted to expand. Like it was reaching for the clans. By now the she cats white paws where a little chilly with the freezing air and frosty ground. Yet she was so close and she hadn't any intentions of turning back now. The long furred tabby picked up her pace to a trot feeling the sun shine fondly on her face from ahead. There had only been one time that she had seen the sea swallow the sun and turn it a blood red. Perhaps tonight was another chance to see it.

Racing now with her paws thrumming agasint the dry ground crunching over forming ice and her breath fogging and being left behind as she ran. A faint scent of many cats filled her nostrils over powering the smell of salt for only a brief moment before it retunred in full force. The looming stones on the horzon stuck up from the sand standing tall with shadows reaching far. The deputy suddenly slowed to a trot feeling the shadow crawl over her back as she neared the cover of the large stones. Than without hesitation approched the clearing and padded in over the destroyed foliage the faint scent of the dusk syndicate made her nose wrinkle in disgust. Snapshots of the battle shooting throguh her mind painfully.

She ignored it and padded by the breeched foliage to the clearing. Taking a brief moment to stand in the very center looking up towards the large stones to which the leaders would stand and speak of peaceful things. Only under because starclan forced them too. She shivered at the thought of being leader, a hope sparking in her chest that fallenstar would love a long life of serving riverclan. Shaking out the thought she made her way around the rocks and toward the beech feeling the sun on her fur yet again. A purr rumbled in her throat as her paws hit sand and the sounds of the ocean roaring filled her ears. So powerful and yet so calming.

An ebony she-cat padded slowly through the snow in the direction of Seastones. Her paws sunk down a little with each step. She wasn't very used to walking through snow. Whilst SkyClan's territory did get covered in snow like every other territory, SkyClan's layer of snow was thinner because of the tall trees which were bunched closely together. The large leaves prevented all the snow from falling to the ground. Instead, snow would clump up on the larger leaves and eventually melt and fall to the ground as droplets of water. It didn't make the ground any different though, since the water would just sink into the snow.

Auroraflame didn't usually venture from outside of SkyClan's territory, unless Grousestar had sent her to do something outside of the territory. There were times where she would go outside the boundaries though. Like when she and Umbraice went on their little adventures, or when the clan had too attend the gatherings. Speaking of gatherings, this was the first time that she'd visited Seastones for a reason that wasn't a gathering. The she-cat had come here today to relax. She knew that tensions were high between ThunderClan and WindClan, and while it didn't affect SkyClan, the deputy still felt stressed. Perhaps it was because she had recently been thinking a lot about the Dusk Syndicate's old territory. It was supposedly empty though she still wanted to send a patrol to explore the area and check for any syndicate cats who had dared to stay even after the battle. Every time she got close to the border between her territory and the Dusk Syndicate's, she always felt a little nervous because no one had checked if they'd actually all gone. Every one just assumed so because none of the patrols had spotted cats across the border. There might be cats still lurking deeper within.

The she-cat really need to take her mind off it. That's why she'd come here today. She liked the scent of the sea and the sound of waves crashing against the stone. The stone was rough against the pads of her paws but she didn't mind it. As Auroraflame entered the clearing, she couldn't help but notice that she wasn't alone. She parted her jaws slightly and tasted the air. RiverClan. Normally, the deputy would've puffed up her fur and unsheathed her claws with a snarl, but she felt peace instead and she didn't do anything. Her fur lay flat against her body and she padded closer to the cat, though she left a good few fox-lengths between them. She gazed at the other she-cat and followed her gaze. She seemed to be staring at the large stones, the stones which the leaders stood on. Even though the stones were bare of cats, she could still sense power radiating off it. She could imagine the leaders standing on the stones. It was weird to think that one day, she would be standing on those stones. She could only really imagine Grousestar standing up there as SkyClan's representative.

Suddenly daisyshade was aware of someone entering the clearing, the crunch of snow behind her was almost impossible to ignore or not be curious about. At first she only stared longingly towards the large stones before she suddenly heard the walking stop and her large ears flicked backwards pinning to the back of her head. Her fear was small and her curiosity was larger than it. So taking a deep breath, she let her fur lay flat on her back and haunches. She forced her mouth shut and made sure the hostility and fear in her eyes faded, Slowly the deputy turned her heart in her throat and when her eyes fell upon a black furred feline who had been staring at her with her blazing blue like eyes. Suddenly her heart rate dropped as ease flooded her body.

She could recognize the she cat easily, the distinct fur and the scent of skyclan so very overwhelming. The riverclan deputy than let the other she cats rank sink into her mind before opening her mouth, than quickly closing her maw in frustration. "Auroraflame?" she quickly asked her eyes light with amusement. She was awe inspired by he she cat, she had been enemy to a ruthless rouge who had plagued skyclan for so long. Ending victorious. She had seen the she cat plenty of times, well not really it was only during gatherings but she wasn't hard to miss. The riverclans deputy's tail lashed amusement and her eyes sparkled.

"What brings you so far from skyclan?" she asked the deputy raising her chin in a friendly way. The orange and white tabby sat down sweeping her massive fluffy tail curling round her white paws. As she spoke she noticed how aurora must be completely unsure who she actually was- awkward. The Molly smiled faintly and stood back up. "S- sorry I'm going off to others about manners while I forget mine, I'm daisyshade-" she paused for a moment, getting used to addressing herself as deputy was going to take a long time and it really wasn't going to happen over night. "Riverclans new deputy" she said, her voice wavering slightly as the word deputy slipped between her teeth. She dipped her head respectively to the skyclan she cat before raising her eyes to face the she cat, pride and uncertainty all at the same time within her eyes.

She dipped her head respectively to the skyclan she cat before raising her eyes to face the she cat, pride and uncertainty all at the same time within her eyes.






As the other she-cat acknowledged her presence, Auroraflame sat down on the ground and curled her tail around her paws. She had the feeling that she'd be here for a little longer than she was expecting. The deputy was no longer surprised when someone from another clan knew who she was. For those who had been to gatherings before, they would've been able recognised her by now. She'd been to all four gatherings and she'd also stood by Grousestar's side when each clan had been liberated from the evil leaders.

As she stared at the other she-cat, Auroraflame came to the realisation that while the RiverClan cat knew her name, she didn't know the RiverClan cat's name. She had seen her around in the gatherings once or twice, but she'd never been properly introduced to her. The Bombay prepared herself to ask for the name of the she-cat, but the other cat spoke again before she could ask. Instead of feeling frustrated, she just gave a small smile. She could wait for the introductions to continue. She didn't mind waiting for a little longer. "I came away just to take my mind off everything for a bit," She replied, her gaze wandering away and staring out in the direction of the sea. Her icy gaze flickered back when the other she-cat spoke again. "Daisyshade...." She murmured quietly to herself. What a pretty name. "It's nice to meet you, Daisyshade. I believe you already know who I am," She said warmly, with a purr of amusement. At first, Auroraflame had been rather distant with the way she spoke and she'd been quiet, her expression blank but thoughtful. It was as if someone had opened a door to her because the words that she'd just spoken were warm and friendly. The deputy was typically quite quiet when she met someone new. She might even be described as shy. She only opened up when she became more trusting, or when she saw that the conversation was going somewhere. "RiverClan's new deputy?" She repeated, raising an eyebrow at the words. She must be one of the first cats from another clan to know this information. At the last gathering, or rather, battle, Russetstar had been leader and Fallenstream was the deputy. Apparently that had changed. "Well congratulations!" She said, her voice cheerful. "And please tell Fallenstre—star that I said congratulations," She added afterwards. The deputy was hoping that hearing that someone had congratulated him would give him a bit of encouragement. It probably wasn't easy, becoming a new leader when tensions were so high. When she'd spoken to him at the gathering, he hadn't seemed particularly confident, so maybe the word would help him.

"So, now that you know what I'm doing here, what about you? What brings you all the way from RiverClan's territory?" She asked. Her words were not suspicious or cold, but curious.

The deputy purred her ears flattening to the back of her head as she tipped her head to the side eyes closed with joy, like auroraflame she had come to escape the insanity of busy warriors, undone chores, bossy elders and the impending conversation with tumblestep that continued to hang over her head, growing increasingly demanding each time she lied to him about being concerned or scared. The she cats tail lashed as she un furled it from around her paws and let it sway behind her.

"I thought skyclanners just ran up trees to escape their problems?" mused the tabby her tail than lashing a final time before curling back up around her paws as another breeze swept across the clearing chilling her paws more, as if the snow didn't chill them enough as it is. "It's a pleasure to know other cats are like me, wanting to get away from all that pressure" she said with a smile as she got back down into s crouch position pulling her tail around her front and back paws again as another gust caught her off guard. The orange and white she cat shivered and fluffed up her fur as a defense. But after a moment the breeze ceased and the trees surrounding them silenced. With another purr she sat back up and blinked a few times. She had faced herself away from the ocean and the sun, though as time progressed the sun crept up her back and the heat was gently going away cooling the cat and the clearing as darkness started to decends on the land.

As the she cat congratulated her rather than smile the tabbys expression dropped as if she had heard something depressing rather than somebody congratulating her on the achievement. The she cats spine rippled at the thought but she smiled nonethless, a fake plastic grin that replaced her genuine one. "Oh of course- I'll be happy to tell him. That reminds me, how is Skyclan?" she asked looking genuinely interested in how things where going

CrispLeaf managed to slip away from his attacker and had climbed up the hill. The Tom felt exhausted and there was blood oozing from a large gash in his side. It didn't take long for the cat to climb up beside him, sneering and laughing at him. So this is how I die, eh?

Fox lashed out at the exhausted Tom infront of him."You might have been able to get away if you hadn't left the protection of your clan mates." He sneared,getting face to face with him so he could see the pained look on his face clearly."You shouldn't have left.One of them might have saved you.Nobody can hear you here though."

CrispLeaf didn't really care about anything now. He just had to suck it up and if he died, then he'd be away from all this stupid clan madness. And if he lived, then he'd be grateful but...
"Alright, I know I'm a bad person...I've done and things...I split up a family, whatever...so? Why have you targeted me?! I'm not even really a clan cat! Please, if you let me go, I'll leave this place forever..." He knew he probably didn't really mean that, but it was worth a try. This was a life or death situation in which he had to compromise but it was hard to compromise with a cat he knew nothing about. What do these Syndicate cats want anyway?

This was a life or death situation in which he had to compromise but it was hard to compromise with a cat he knew nothing about. What do these Syndicate cats want anyway?
"Like I said,your a coward. Your supposed to fight back when someone attacks you.As for why I targeted you,I saw you where running away.I don't like cowards,and I belive they shouldn't even be allowed in the forest.I know kittypet that are braver than you." Fox said,studying the cats face.'This is boring.I should end it soon if he doesn't do anything but whine.' he thought.

CrispLeaf closed his eyes, trying to gather the strength to strike back or think of something clever to say. After a few heartbeats had passed, the Tom rolled onto his back and kicked upwards with his back legs, trying to catch his opponent's stomach. He missed, just barely scratching the cat's front legs instead. CrispLeaf sighed. This really was the end for him. "Whatever...I suppose I deserve death more than anything don't I?" he rolled his eyes then closed them, holding his breath.

Fox had moved back as soon as his leg had been scratched, but now he looked back at crispleaf."Your right.Any last words?" Fox asked, moving closer again.There was no sympathy in his voice or movements.He truly was only a cold-blooded killer.He didn't mind it either.Killing another clan cat was just another step closer to achieving his goal.His amber eyes glinted in the moonlight as he stared down at the pitiful cat infront of him.He put a paw on Crispleaf's throat,but didn't yet make the final blow,curious if he had any last words at all.

The Tom just sighed again "I hope my sons are raised well...whoever they're raised by...and I'm sorry to HarmonyBlade...he may have his mate and his family back to himself...what I did was wrong and...they're rightfully his..." CrispLeaf looked up at the moon and a few moments later, blood splattered in his eyes. The last thing he saw was his killer's shadow covering the moon then everything went red...then black...then cold...then silence...CrispLeaf was dead.
(Okay thanks for finishing it off)

[Empress Of Evil]

The deputy purred her ears flattening to the back of her head as she tipped her head to the side eyes closed with joy, like auroraflame she had come to escape the insanity of busy warriors, undone chores, bossy elders and the impending conversation with tumblestep that continued to hang over her head, growing increasingly demanding each time she lied to him about being concerned or scared. The she cats tail lashed as she un furled it from around her paws and let it sway behind her.

"I thought skyclanners just ran up trees to escape their problems?" mused the tabby her tail than lashing a final time before curling back up around her paws as another breeze swept across the clearing chilling her paws more, as if the snow didn't chill them enough as it is. "It's a pleasure to know other cats are like me, wanting to get away from all that pressure" she said with a smile as she got back down into s crouch position pulling her tail around her front and back paws again as another gust caught her off guard. The orange and white she cat shivered and fluffed up her fur as a defense. But after a moment the breeze ceased and the trees surrounding them silenced. With another purr she sat back up and blinked a few times. She had faced herself away from the ocean and the sun, though as time progressed the sun crept up her back and the heat was gently going away cooling the cat and the clearing as darkness started to decends on the land.

As the she cat congratulated her rather than smile the tabbys expression dropped as if she had heard something depressing rather than somebody congratulating her on the achievement. The she cats spine rippled at the thought but she smiled nonethless, a fake plastic grin that replaced her genuine one. "Oh of course- I'll be happy to tell him. That reminds me, how is Skyclan?" she asked looking genuinely interested in how things where going





With Grousestar ill, the she-cat had more responsibility on her paws than before. She was doing alright so far and she was staying strong. Hopefully the SkyClan leader would be healed soon and she could return to worrying over her regular duties. The she-cat was happy to have a bit of peace to herself. There was another cat in her presence of course, but the she-cat wasn't loud or super talkative. She liked that. She was glad that things weren't completely awkward between them but she didn't have to respond to something every few seconds. She closed her eyes and blocked put every sound except for that of the waves lapping against the stone. It was relaxing. It would be nice to live in a place like this, though she doubted she would ever want to leave the forest.

"As nice as it is to sit up in a tree and take your mind off things, it's actually not quite that easy," she responded, open her eyes, amusement tinting her hues. "The wind doesn't carry away our problems, no matter how much we might wish it would." The Bombay she-cat glanced upwards, no looking directly at the sun but looking at the spots around the sun. From what she could see, it was past sunhigh. Soon enough, she would have to return back to camp and sort out patrols. But she still had a bit of time, so it wouldn't hurt to stay for a little longer. For a moment, Auroraflame was reminded of how much time it would take to get back to camp, but she was quickly reassured as she remembered that she could shadow walk back. When she'd first found out about her darkness manipulation powers, she'd been confused. But soon enough, she'd found it too become a useful thing.

Auroraflame nodded in agreement as the she-cat spoke again. Although it wasn't the pressure that she was running from, but rather her thoughts. Despite that, she didn't correct the she-cat to make the words fit her situation. Auroraflame's icy hues wandered for a moment before she looked back down to gaze at the other deputy. The ebony feline caught the she-cat's change of expression before she changed it again to put on a smile. The deputy's lips curled down into a slight frown. Was something wrong? She hadn't missed the frown that Daisyshade had put on her maw a few moments ago. Now she was questioning how genuine the smile was. "Are you alright?" she asked softly. She didn't mean to be nosy, but she was curious as to why her smile had dropped when she'd been congratulated on her new position. Auroraflame would've beamed with joy, no matter how unhappy she might have felt. "SkyClan is doing fine," she continued. She didn't say anything more. She didn't need to share the news about her sick leader. Even if Daisyshade seemed like a pleasant cat, she didn't wish to give away such news.

A purr rumbled deep in her throat and she tipped her gently to the side. "Wouldn't it be great if it worked that way huh?" she said taking another deep breath and straightening out. Despite how much she wanted to just return to her regular old self she wouldn't be able to find the words to tell fallenstar that his choice was a mistake, the words to explain she actually wanted to simple life of a queen and live out her days neglecting the worries and burdens that would have been as a deputy. She admired auroraflame for that, the way she selflessly devoted herself to a clan that probably didn't love her back as much. Despite not knowing much of skyclan she was pretty convinced that she had figured it out, long time of being away from other clans, their views where different, the way they did things had drifted. Not in a bad way- perhaps in the best possible way. They had exposure to a life full of peace, not the pressure of clans pushing in at your borders.

She turned back to the deputy a slender smile forming on her lips. "Just exhausted, I assume you've got acustomed to it? Or just have you grown tougher skin over these moons?" she jokingly "all that deputy stuff" she purred getting up for a split second and stretching out her arms and hind legs but extending them to their fullest length and than pulling them all back towards her in order to sit down and curl her tail around her paws. "Not only that, but I am pretty sure I'm pregnant" she added confidently. She was a skyclanner there was nothing she could do to really spread or really let anybody in riverclan now. Nor did she really believe "a- and I havnt told my mate yet..." she said again this time her eyes watered and she looked down at her paws. Why was she telling her this? Maybe because she felt that, this cat she barely knew, could be the only one to listen in her world.

The orange and white tabby let a tear roll down her cheek but she quickly wiped it away with the back of her paw and raising her gaze, despite the shame within her eyes, she met the she cats icy blue gaze and shrugged. Despite the painful confession she had just made to a complete stranger she still seemed weakened by the crushing reality of everything she had said. "That's great to hear, I know it was a while ago that you guys took some territory closer to us but how's that going? Everyone adapting to the new territory?" asked the she cat, her eyes still watery and the sadness even though her voice was high pitched and seemingly joyous.

“Oh it would,” she responded, nodding her head in agreement. Auroraflame was a pretty organised cat. Even though she struggled with procrastination, she was able to quickly do what she needed to do if it was important enough. She knew how to manage time. It was one of the perks of being a deputy, especially when you’d been a deputy for a while. She was usually quite chill with her work, although every now and again she would get stressed and she would need some time to herself. This was one of those times so here she sat.

Auroraflame chuckled and a friendly grin grew on her maw. “I’ve already gotten a tougher skin so exhaustion doesn’t hit me that hard,” she said, giving a small shrug. The Bombay watched as the other she-cat rose to her paws and stretched before sitting back down. Good idea. She lowered her head and arched her back up as far as it would go. She relished the stretch while it lasted before lifting her head up to face Daisyshade. “You get used to it eventually. Just make sure that you get some sleep whenever you have some free time,” she advised. She gazed past the deputy and watched the waves lapping at the stone, her mind quickly wandering away from the conversation. For a few moments, Auroraflame was lost, mesmerized by the water. She wasn’t really listening to what Daisyshade was saying but suddenly her icy blue gaze snapped back to attention at the word ‘pregnant’. “Congratulations!”. No matter what clan they were in, kits were always something to celebrate. Her eyes widened when she continued. If she were in her position, the first cat that she would’ve told would’ve been her mate. “Oh. Well then, you should probably tell him soon. I’m sure that he will be overjoyed,” she said, giving the she-cat a small smile. Her smile quickly disappeared and turned into a frown of concern. She watched as the tear rolled down her cheek and she moved her tail forward to wipe it away, but Daisyshade dealt with it herself. Honestly, the deputy couldn’t understand why she was so upset about it, but perhaps there was something else that she didn’t know or understand.

The deputy decided to not dwell on the topic and played along with the she-cat’s happy demeanor. The RiverClan cat already looked upset enough and she had the feeling that she would become even more upset if she continued to talk about it. “We’ve adapted well. The environment suits us,” she remarked. They’d had a good few moons to settle in. Building the camp had probably been the hardest part of it but otherwise, they had settled in within a moon.

[ Ooh Aroura has powers Ooooh! ]

She chuckled slightly and leaned harder onto her shoulder so she was nearly laying in the snow at this point. Her claws slid out and she raked neat lines into the snow ignoring the extreme cold that was seeping in through the exposed parts of her side and arms. It soothed the aching in her body and she simply let it melt on her skin. Throwing her head back in a long satisfied sigh.

She looked back up at the black molly "If only the wind plucked it off our minds and carried it away, so far away it fades like a small dream" she said glancing back up at the stars, seeing he way they peeked through the blanket of pink that was covering the sheet of dark blue just waiting to engulf the whole territory into a deep darkness. "Maybe than our lives would be so easy, maybe than we wouldn't need five clans. Maybe just one and maybe than we could live in peace" she mused. The thought of her problems being physically picked up and tossed away was so funny to think of. Since there was no possible way that could have ever happened or ever would happen, life needed to be struggled through in order to enjoy it when you had grown old and grey. Only than would you appreciate what you had fought through to get there. She blinked a few times and her gaze dropped back down from the ombre sky that hung over the she cats heads. "Sleep, I havn't heard of that in sunrises, there's always a problem going on" she snickered curling her tail gently around her hind legs as it slowly became soaked by the snow. "Isn't it odd how much things change from once being so typical around the clan to this?" she asked looking back over her shoulder towards auroraflame. I would assume it affects her too? Or maybe it's just me that sees it.
She laughed again this time it was hardened and somewhat stressed. "That's the last thing I wanna do, I mean he's so worried lots of the time and now I'm worried. Perhaps I should but I think I should wait for a while" she said rubbing her head with a gentle paw. Than sat back up shaking off the snow as it became to damp and wet on her shoulder and side.

"But I suppose I can't keep it from him forever" she said raising her head to look just beyond her. A flash of fear rippled through her body as the image of a cat seemed to stalk through the bushes, those green eyes and slender figure. Tumblestep? yet it was simply her mind playing tricks on her and she shook it off. "Oh that's great to hear, prey running well?" she asked tipping her head to the side. "I mean well for leaf bare, since everything is so skinny and soggy, but I mean from leaf bare perspective?" she asked gently

The stars twinkled in the midnight sky, and the gentle lapping of the ocean's waves could be heard in the distance. A large shape was moving along the sand, leaving pawsteps behind. It was a broad-shouldered dark orange tom, a rabbit in his jaws, a gift for Lightpaw. He glanced around for her, but the ShadowClan she cat had not arrived. The ThunderClan tom sighed and leaped onto the smoothest, roundest rock in the corner of the beach, which was concealed by the branches of a bush. This was the place where they had agreed to meet.

The dark orange tom sat back on his haunches, curling his tail neatly around his paws. He kept the Fresh Kill in his jaws, gazing around him as he searched for Lightpaw's dark forme. He waited patiently, his ears perked, listening for the she cat's pawsteps.

Just then, a sleek, black figure emerged from behind a tree. Lightpaw. The she-cat headed over to the tom, noticing the rabbit he had. Lightpaw jumped on to one of the rocks, looking at the tom. "Hello!" She meowed. "Furzeberry and I are done training for now."

Jaguartooth felt a smile pull at his maw. "Hello, Lightpaw...," he meowed. "You certainly seem glad to see me..." He chuckled and pushed the rabbit towards her with his snout. "It's a gift... you may have it. I already ate." He gazed at her a moment before settling back and grooming his chest.

[GingaFan2249]

Jaguartooth felt a smile pull at his maw. "Hello, Lightpaw...," he meowed. "You certainly seem glad to see me..." He chuckled and pushed the rabbit towards her with his snout. "It's a gift... you may have it. I already ate." He gazed at her a moment before settling back and grooming his chest.
Lightpaw let a purr rumble from her throat as she ate the rabbit. "You're a good hunter!" She commented. "I bet you can probably keep your whole Clan fed pretty quickly!" The she-cat lifted a paw and began licking it, drawing it over her ears. Jaguartooth was a very good hunter in Lightpaw's mind, and a good friend.

Jaguartooth fluffed up his fur in embarrassment at the compliment, and he coughed, glancing away. "My father was the best hunter in the Clan before he was killed for his crimes... His hunting ability must have been passed genetically to me... I don't like others complimenting my hunting skills because it just makes me feel like my father..." He groomed a paw thoughtfully before glancing at Lightpaw. "You look nice tonight..." He chuckled, a purr rumbling deep in his chest.. "Unlike me. My fur is too long for thurough grooming... so I must look like a mess..." His tail tip flicked lazily, and there was good humour in his eyes.

Lightpaw nodded slowly, feeling pity for Jaguartooth that his father was so rude. Looking at her fur after Jaguartooth's compliment, she purred. "Thanks!" She meowed. "I try to always look good so that way my Clanmates don't think I fell from a tree head-first!" Lightpaw's eyes focused on the tom's long fur. "You look pretty nice too, and handsome-er-fluffy!" She corrected herself in embarrassment. "D-did I just say that?" She asked, blushing furiously.

Jaguartooth chuckled.
"Well, it's nice to know I'm handsome fluffy. Aye, I'm just joking." He smiled and gazed up at the star filled sky. "I wonder... what my mother is doing in StarClan right now..." He sighed, his eyes distant, his tail tip flicking as he was deep in thought.

[GingaFan2249]

Jaguartooth chuckled.
"Well, it's nice to know I'm handsome fluffy. Aye, I'm just joking." He smiled and gazed up at the star filled sky. "I wonder... what my mother is doing in StarClan right now..." He sighed, his eyes distant, his tail tip flicking as he was deep in thought.
Lightpaw looked up at the sky with him. "My mother and my father were killed by rogues, and I was left alone in an abandoned Twoleg den." She meowed, launching into her past. "I learned most of what I know from them, and how to hunt. When they died, I was trapped for five moons in the den. I'm older now. The way how I found ShadowClan was by using my nose, and here I am, a ShadowClan apprentice." Lightpaw looked over at Jaguartooth, wondering how his mother died.

The dark orange tom glanced at Lightpaw, sympathy in his eyes. "I am very sorry about that,
Lightpaw... that must have been hard..." He gazed at the sky again, watching the stars shine. "My mother... She was a kittypet before I was born, even though I was borne a Clan cat. She fell in love with my father shortly after she joined ThunderClan without knowing his true nature. He had a reason for taking her as his mate, and it wasn't because he loved her. He hated her, but he showed affection. But that was all it was; a show. When I was borne, both of my siblings had been stillborn, so I was the only kit that lived. I was raised to an apprentice by my parents, but when I was eight moons old, my father killed my mother in her sleep. He slashed her throat. I hadn't witnessed it, but I had found the bodies of the other two missing warriors under a bush, killed the same way, during my first patrol by myself. I ran back to camp, only to see my mother... dead. I told the leader, and they killed my father for his crimes. Right in front of me. I am glad he is gone, but I wish... my mother was still here." He swallowed, his ears slightly flattered at the memories.

Lightpaw felt even more sympathy and pity for Jaguartooth. "Great StarClan!" She exclaimed. "I can imagine how you feel and how you felt." Lightpaw began feeling her pelt become hot, and she shuffled her paws, and then had an idea about what she was going to say. "I-I've been having bad dreams." She meowed. "They're dreams like no other. I'm in this forest, with evil cats, and this one cat named Scorndusk terrifies me. I come back to ShadowClan in ruins, and weak. I'm scared!" Lightpaw remembered about how manipulative Scorndusk was, and how all the cats in the Dark Forest were unfriendly and scary.

Jaguartooth glanced at Lightpaw, his amber eyes concerned. He pulled her to his side with his tail and rested his cheek on top of her head. "I don't know what you are going through, Lightpaw, but I really wish I could be with you to help you feel... less scared..." He gave his friend's head a quick lick before moving away and padding over to the edge of the smooth rock to gaze out at the ocean. The ocean breeze blew through his fur. He settled there, just watching the waves, something on his mind.

(ooooo!!)
Lightpaw smiled a bit thanks to her friend's support, and she wondered what Jaguartooth was thinking about. Talking about her Dark Forest experience made her feel better, and her pads prickled with wonder.

Jaguartooth sighed and glanced at Lightpaw, his gaze thoughtful. "Um... do you think it is possible if I... joined you in your dreams... somehow...? There has got to be a way, and I will find it. I don't want you to continue going to the Dark Forest alone... in case you meet my father..." He gazed up at the star filled sky, having spoken part of what was on his mind. What he didn't want to tell her was that his father probably did know he was Lightpaw's friend, since he was watching him from the Dark Forest all the time, and when his father found out Lightpaw has been coming to the Dark Forest frequently, Jaguartooth knew his father would try to hurt her in some way. The tom could only hope his father wouldn't find out.

Jaguartooth sighed and rested his chin on his paws, his tail tip flicking.
He didn't know what he was going to do.

Lightpaw nodded. "You can." She meowed. "For my own safety. You may not be a medicine cat, but if other cats can walk in dreams, I know you can." The thought of Jaguartooth's father trying to assist Scorndusk made her feel worried, but if Jaguartooth could try and help her, Lightpaw could be safe.

((I think we should set up a time with Leaf tail for Jaguartooth to meet Scorndusk and Jaguartooth's father))

Jaguartooth nodded. He got to his paws and padded over to her, pausing in front of her. "Now, on to a more cheerful topic, I think we should learn a little more about each other..." He settled down on the rock, neatly tucking his forepaws underneath his chest. "First off, what is your favorite fresh kill to eat? Mine is squirrel."

Interested with the question, Lightpaw began to explain. "My favorite fresh-kill is vole, and squirrel. So juicy!" She exclaimed, licking her lips. "If I could, maybe badger!" She joked.
((Yea. Does Leaf_tail know Jaguartooth has a father?))

Jaguartooth chuckled at her comment, a purr rumbling through his chest. "Yes, I imagine badger is really good, if we could catch it." He thought a moment, his ears perking ever so slightly as the ocean breeze blew past the two cats. "What are you most skilled at? Hunting, scenting, or fighting...?"
He knew this might be a bit tough for her, since she was a young apprentice, but he was curious of her skills.

Lightpaw was honestly skilled at everything, but she knew there was one thing that she knew she was better at. "Hunting." She meowed. "I impressed my mentor when we never even practiced!" A chuckle came out of Lightpaw, a purr following.

Jaguartooth smiled. "Mine is hunting, as well..." He glanced up at the night sky before getting to his paws. "I should probably get going before my Clan finds out I have been gone. Shall we meet again tomorrow night at midnight?" He silently waited for her answer.

Lightpaw nodded. "That'll be fine." She meowed.

Jaguartooth nodded. Then he stepped up to Lightpaw and gave her a lick on the cheek before stepping back. "See you then." Then he disappeared into the shadows.

padding towards the stones, powdernose looked around with slight anxiety. sky-colored irises twitched back and forth as his gaze darted around, heart pounding. the newest thunderclan deputy wasn't sure of what he may find here, especially after the death of the thunderclan warrior. his ears flattened, paws kneading the ground with vigour. it was almost as though he could see the thundershower raging on, a sign of starclan's anger as thunderclan fought with shadowclan. powdernose sighed, shaking his head. now was not the time to worry. the past was the past; this was the present.
even as he cleared his mind, the siamese still felt a nagging sense of dread settle within him. quit being so negative. powdernose gulped and sat down by the seastones, eyes tracing the area, almost in search of something. after many moments, he shrugged and crouched, though he felt as if he had a reason to come here. usually, he wouldn't leave the camp, or territory, without a very good reason. but now, it was different. powdernose was the deputy. and he had duties to perform, but there was no harm in paying some respects to a fallen warrior, right?

That was it, the sound of waves lapping at the shore below while the salty breeze clashed with the surrounding atmosphere. Before the gathering storm it had been a place of peace, a place where the deputy found herself at peace with what she was. But now snapshots of the gathering flashed through her eyes as she faced the sun. This was all such a mistake, please I can’t do this driftingstorm. she thought briefly glancing up at the sky longingly. Streaks of brilliant purple and orange danced across the darkening sky with such vibrancy that surely caught the eye of all who glanced upon it. One day she would be up there watching the clans make their mistakes.

The cream and ginger spotted molly was seated upon riverclan a pedistal. Yes it belonged to fallenstar but she had guessed the best view of the vast ocean from this height was worth climbing up too. And she had been right. She had already seen the body and took careful consideration to pull it back to thunderclan herself and express how riverclan grieved for the lost life- but she had thought better and pulled it off the the side from beneath the tree branch groomed the toms fur and was to wait til nightfall. There she would wait for the stars to peek out of the clouds and for a brief moment she would share tongues with a warrior she didn’t know, who had died for a greater cause, if thunderclan sent no cat to gather the cat she would. After the sun began to sink behind the crashing waves she turned her head over her shoulder locking into the deceased warriors body. “I’m so sorry, this shouldn’t have happened. Only for nothing be fixed” gracefully the riverclan deputy leapt down from the pedistal and teetered towards the body. Everything had become an increasingly difficult task to accomplish with her pregnancy. Now stalking through the shade the queen approached the body, bending to give the deceased toms ears a lick before she heard somebody approaching. She didn’t see anybody and with the recent mingled scents of many clan mates and even the storms scent lingered. Even the singed fur of the fallen thunderclan warrior was overwhelming. Stiffening up the deputy stood puffing out her chest and flexing her claws within their seathes. “Who’s there?” she said in a demanding voice unlike normal daisyshade, the normal riverclan warrior, no it sounded like rowanflower the riverclan deputy.

powdernose's head whipped up, ears perked at the sound of a voice. he sniffed, though the only scent that reached him was the mingled scent of each clan. shaking his head, the thunderclan cat padded forwards, looking around warily. taking a deep breath, powdernose stepped into the open, his eyes narrowed cautiously. "i am powdernose, deputy of thunderclan." he forced a low tone to his voice as he spoke. you sound pathetic. powdernose shoved away the thought within his mind, ears flattening. "i have come to find the fallen warrior." tail lashing, the siamese sat down. riverclan. they're our allies. stop being so rude. he sighed.

As the Siamese tom slid out into the open her tail fell by her legs gently waving side to side as she stood by the groomed warrior. She had kinda expected a few apprentices but she was quite amused by the tom cat who seemed to be putting up s front. The small ginger spotted tabby sat down sweeping her tail around her paws and siting upright with glistening eyes of amusement. His voice was deeper than she had expected but what he said shocked her even more. Snowstar is gone? the she cat blinked a few times than looked down at her paws for a moment. A new deputy had joined them, how weird it was that buttercupbteeze and herself where new and than there was a third. There was so much resignation lately. The cream and ginger cat let out a deep sigh. “Rowanflower, riverclan s deputy” she returned mildly. There was no hostility in her voice, rather a loving acceptance of a mother. ”Congratulations, you like like your fairing well” She cast another side glance to the fallen warrior and let out a hefty sigh “I had come to do the same thing” she said blinking a few times. The shock of a new deputy and not knowing exactly what happened to Snowstar was even more disturbing to her. “Excuse me but I hope you don’t mind me asking what happened to Snowstar? Please don’t tell me it was the gathering battle” if it had been, there was two lives gone. Perhaps more she was unaware of- why hadn’t fallenstar he led if it was a thunderclan messenger. Her belly churned, she expected half of it was the other leaders fault too. The she cats tail twitched on Discomfort.

he sighed softly. "thank you, rowanflower. it has been rather stressful, even after only being appointed few sunrises ago. passionstar has not been easy on me." his voice was almost like a whine, having not been able to be as lazy as he was before. especially with the threat of a rather rude awakening. that big furball, powdernose thought with a huff. his right ear flicked, paws kneading the ground.
"ah, snowstar. well, she resigned due to stress, i believe." he lowered his head. "i'm not exactly sure." tail puffing out, powdernose padded closer to the fallen warrior, pressing his nose to their icy flesh. "we should bury them, in the middle of the territories." his normally bright eyes were a dull blue in color, whiskers twitching as he looked upon the lifeless body.

[|+sari+|]

It was midnight, and a large forme was moving across the sandy beach, leaving paw prints behind him. He kept to the shadows as he hurriedly padded towards his normal meeting place where he would meet up with Lightpaw. The large orange tom reached the secluded rock, leaping up with his strong hind legs and landing gracefully on all four paws. He gently laid the daisy he held in his jaws down, using his tail to gently push the flower under a bush that reached its branches over the rock. He wanted the daisy to be a surprise for Lightpaw.

Jaguartooth then went over to the edge and stopped there, sitting back on his haunches and curling his tail neatly around his paws. He gazed out over the sand, whiskers twitching as he waited for the she-cat's small, dark forme. He swept his amber gaze all around him, silently waiting and watching. He knew she would be here at any moment. This time, he wanted to be able to see her coming before she arrived at the rock.

She could see the pain in the deputy’s eyes and she fluffed up her own fur before turning and giving her shoulder a lick. All the deputies and leaders she had known where tough on the exterior, she liked them of course except for Blazingstar which she had briefly met the other day. He made her feel uncomfortable in her own skin despite knowing there was nothing really wrong with him, it was most likely just in her mind anyways. Despite the tough exteriors of other deputies and leaders, Powdernose seemed like the kind of gentle deputy, unlike others. He was careful and passionate, why else would he had come to see the fallen thunderclan tom. “Fallenstar was the same, I mean he kinda still is the same” she corrected herself letting her tail lash a few times with an exhausted sigh. Fallenstar hated her, starclan the way he would glare and flex his claws. A shiver clawed it’s way up her back and she sucked a hard breath in. “I’ll assure you passionstar must have high hopes, you will not dispoint him I’m sure of it” she said with an affectionate and encouraging glance that seemed too friendly for the regular deputy to deputy talk. She glanced upwards at the darkening stars and she blinked her eyes shut for a moment “do you ever think starclan made the wrong choice. He needn’t die a death to prove a point let alone the clans let this all fall between our paws” she asked not looking back at him rather stare up into the sky, the flickering stars blinking back at her. Traitors.

Lightpaw slowly emerged from the distance, noticing her friend. Excitement bubbled up inside her as she had always wanted to see him. The daisy in his mouth made Lightpaw feel more excited. She slowly began padding towards the rocks.

Feeling a sense of happiness, Lightpaw bounded towards the rocks, climbing up on one and taking a seat. Her paws prickled with excitement, and she wondered if maybe spending more time with Jaguartooth would get her mind off of the Dark Forest. Recently, she had nearly drowned and fell unconscious, only to be rescued by her enemy Scorndusk.

Jaguartooth went over to Lightpaw, his happiness evident in the bright twinkle in his eyes.
He licked her in between the ears a few moments before gazing into her eyes. "I am so glad to see you, Lightpaw...," he purred. "I have a small gift for you..." He padded over to the bush where he had hidden the daisy. He reached his paw underneath the branches and gently pulled out the flower, taking it gently into his jaws and carrying it over to his friend. He set it down in front of her before taking a small pawstep back, his tail tip flicking nervously as he dipped his head. "It... it was the prettiest I could find... I would have gotten a nicer flower, but I didn't want my Clan mates to be suspicious... they all try to look for any reason to question me, to make me look like I'm doing something I'm not supposed to..." He sighed. "So I got you this one..." He felt his pelt heat up as he glanced up at her. "Do... do you like it...?," he meowed shyly.

Lightpaw admired the beautiful daisy. "I love it!" She meowed, a purr of glee rumbling from her throat. This gift was very special to Lightpaw, and she thought that maybe ThunderClan should learn to stop being suspicious of Jaguartooth and know he was just trying to be a friend.

powdernose shrugged indifferently. "passionstar has his moments, but no matter what, i still love the goofy furball. we've been friends ever since i was fostered." the siamese tom sighed and shook his head fondly. "he will certainly be sure to keep me on my paws," he purred. his ears demeaner weakened as his gaze settled upon the thunderclan warrior. they weren't meant to die. powdernose's head dipped respectfully, eyes clouded with grief.
as the battle raged on, he had been in the forest, daydreaming about a certain warrior. as observed, powdernose never fought. he was a coward. he would remain this way if he didn't learn to toughen up his barrier. maybe stonegazer can help, he thought before shaking away his distractions.
listening to rowanflower, powdernose turned to the sky. he felt no difference within his emotions at the topic, not being such a firm believer in starclan. the tom believed in it, yes, but he didn't depend on all those in its starry territories. "peace may be sought, but will forever remain unfound," powdernose mewed simply. his tail sweeped against the ground, tossing up some dust. "those who wish to seek peace must find it within themselves first." the thunderclan deputy sighed, content with his words.

Rowanflower drew in a hasty breath than blinked a few times, fostered, he was fostered just like I was. She knew there where others like her but sometimes you just felt alone in a world like that. Her head sagged to the side letting out another hefty sigh before planting herself firmly behind the fallen warrior. She gave the brown toms fur another cleaning around the ears. It felt like she where licking stone, that’s how cold his body was. “That’s good. You’ll lead thunderclan one day, you outta keep on your toes for that” she mused looking back up at him from her crouched position. She drew her tongue gently over the warriors frost bitten fur another time before gazing fondly at Powdernose. “It’s good to know that we’ve got warriors with hearts still- everyone seems so harsh all of a sudden” she said referring to the gathering which he had known nothing about. Since no thunderclan cats or shadowclan cats had attended. That reminded her to ask what on earth the warrior had been doing here and why birthed clan had showed.

Said next blew her away completely. Taking the breath right out of her with one fell paw swoop. “You think so? It’s impossible?” she questioned a little hope draining from her eyes a moment later.

Rowanflower drew in a hasty breath than blinked a few times, fostered, he was fostered just like I was. She knew there where others like her but sometimes you just felt alone in a world like that. Her head sagged to the side letting out another hefty sigh before planting herself firmly behind the fallen warrior. She gave the brown toms fur another cleaning around the ears. It felt like she where licking stone, that’s how cold his body was. “That’s good. You’ll lead thunderclan one day, you outta keep on your toes for that” she mused looking back up at him from her crouched position. She drew her tongue gently over the warriors frost bitten fur another time before gazing fondly at Powdernose. “It’s good to know that we’ve got warriors with hearts still- everyone seems so harsh all of a sudden” she said referring to the gathering which he had known nothing about. Since no thunderclan cats or shadowclan cats had attended. That reminded her to ask what on earth the warrior had been doing here and why birthed clan had showed. Though she had sneaking suspicions it had been related to some sort of fight, perhaps Snowstars uncany demotion or so called ‘stepping down’ though she has no right to assume it, her mind was already thinking of scenarios.

the tom's tail flicked sluggishly. "if the clans don't come to agreements with each other, the wars will only build up upon each other until nobody is left. peace cannot be found in hatred." he sighed and shook his head, eyes downcast to his paws. powdernose seemed to be examining them, almost. imagining the blood of a clan cat splattered within his fur.

he shuddered at the thought.

powdernose's blue gaze seemed to darken for a split second as he thought of the battles. he had stayed behind, as he always did, with everything. hunting patrols, training, everything. the tom would always make an excuse to sleep. you're just a cowards, powdernose. nobody will love you, powdernose. no wonder your parents abandoned you, powdernose. you're a little wimpy kit! he shook his head violently, trying to clear his thoughts.

Ferretpelt led Lambpaw onto the sandy ground of Seastones, the sound of waves lapping gently at the shore nearby. He glanced over his shoulder to make sure Lambpaw was following before leading her over shells and stones and sand, eventually reaching a spot with smooth sand. He sat back on his haunches, resting his tail over his paws. He nodded to her, wanting her to sit beside him. He then gazed out over the ocean. The water was beautiful, like turquoise diamonds. And it stretched out as far as the eye could see. It was breathtaking. This was what he had wanted to show Lambpaw.

The black and white tom didn't say anything for a few moments, bringing his paw up to groom it, then drawing it over his ears. He set his paw back down, resting his tail over his paws once more. He eventually glanced at Lambpaw, a bright smile on his maw. "Isn't it wonderful?" He whispered. He hoped his friend would agree. Nothing could take one's breath away more than the sight of the ocean.

Lambpaw trotted along behind Ferretpelt giving inquiring eyes to the soft pink and orange hues of the shells that littered the grainy sand that covered the shore stopping to sit beside the black and tom as he did. Lambpaw upon seeing the turquoise beauty that was the ocean just stared out into the sea for a few moments enraptured by the tranquil water and just the peacefulness of it all before turning to face Ferretpelt, "I-it's not w-w-wonderful... it's e-extraordinary." She mewed her eyes wide with wonder as she continued to look out, "You h-h-have to t-take m-m-me out h-here m-more it would b-be a s-sin not to have s-s-s-somecat constantly a-admiring this b-beauty." Lambpaw gushed walk slowing up wanting to draw her paw over the water. RosePelt145

Ferretpelt joined her, chuckling as he came up beside her, watching her as she drew her paw through the ocean water. He smiled and nodded. "You're right... it is truly extraordinary. And I would be more than happy to bring you here whenever you'd like, lassy." He stood close to her side, resting his tail over her back as the two cats gazed out over the sea. It was so... peaceful to just stand here and gaze out over the indescribable rapturous beauty of the sea. The black and white tom smiled at Lambpaw and licked between her ears before padding along the edge of the sea, then paused to glance back at her. "Come along, let's look for that conch shell, shall we...?"

Lambpaw nodded beaming from ear to ear, "Whenever I-I-I-I'd like?" She mewed bewildered by the sentiment, "Oh F-f-f-f-f-ferretpelt t-thank you!" Lambpaw purred reaching up so she could give the tom-cat a quick affectionate nuzzle to caught in the moment to really think things through. "D-do you t-t-think will f-f-f-find any p-p-pearls? I heard t-ttthose a-re super rare!" She cooed trotting along to meet him, "Y-y-y-y-you k-k-know I t-t-think I m-m-might n-nn-ame one of my k-k-kits that w-what do you t-t-think is Pearlkit a-a c-uute name? Or, O-O-O-Oceankit that one's r-r-really pretty!" She gushed not knowing why she had the sudden urge to chat with Ferretpelt about kit names as she continued to gaze at the sea.

Lightpaw admired the beautiful daisy. "I love it!" She meowed, a purr of glee rumbling from her throat. This gift was very special to Lightpaw, and she thought that maybe ThunderClan should learn to stop being suspicious of Jaguartooth and know he was just trying to be a friend.

Jaguartooth purred and licked her cheek. "Well, it pleases me that you enjoy it..." He began to groom her neck, beginning the process of sharing tongues, which Clan cats did to show friendship and bonding. He smoothed down her dark fur with his pink tongue, pausing in between licks to speak. "You know, I wouldn't mind showing you my hunting skills sometime, or maybe we can walk along the beach and look for pretty shells. I dunno what would be fun for both of us, but it would be great if we could maybe do some stargazing, when the stars fill the sky one night. I would like to tell you all about StarClan. Oh, and we could do a race, to see who's faster. Though you probably will win." He moved to her shoulders, grooming the fur there. "Wouldn't it be great if we caught an owl to share? I have never been able to catch an owl before, but I would really like to... it would be a huge accomplishment for me." He paused to lick her chest, then continued speaking in between licks. "We should try to walk to the other end of the beach. I think we'd be the first!" He started grooming her back. "I would love to swim to the other side of the ocean, but that would for sure be impossible." He burst out in a mrrow of laughter. "I must be talking too much. Am I boring you...?" He smiled and groomed her flank.

[|+sari+|]

Lambpaw nodded beaming from ear to ear, "Whenever I-I-I-I'd like?" She mewed bewildered by the sentiment, "Oh F-f-f-f-f-ferretpelt t-thank you!" Lambpaw purred reaching up so she could give the tom-cat a quick affectionate nuzzle to caught in the moment to really think things through. "D-do you t-t-think will f-f-f-find any p-p-pearls?

Ferretpelt felt his pelt heat up a bit as Lambpaw nuzzled his face, and he smiled nervously. "Heheh, no problem, lassy. Just tell me when you would like me to bring you here, and I will be happy to. Just make sure it doesn't interfere with your training."

He smiled as she trotted along beside him, listening to her gush about kit names and pearls. "Unless you want to go into the water and dive for oysters, I highly doubt we will find any pearls. But if we do find any washed up on the sand, I will make sure you get it, okay...?" He nodded at her next words. "Those names are really pretty. I think they both would be beautiful." Suddenly something caught his eye. He glanced at Lambpaw, a huge smile on his maw. "I see a conch shell, up there." He went up to a large, white, spiral shaped shell that was so large it would fit all four of his paws. He chuckled and gazed at Lambpaw. "I see that it really is as big as a kit. I'm surprised, too." He gazed at the shell in wonder. "These must be pretty rare... this is the first one I have seen before."

A gleeful purr rumbled from Lightpaw's throat. "I would love to do all that!" She meowed, offering some licks for Jaguartooth as well. Lightpaw enjoyed doing everything with her friends, from playtime to hunting, from racing to challenges, and from games of DarkClan to games of...LightClan? Lightpaw used to play that game before, she had made it all up in honor of her name.

It was a humid day, the bright sunlight warming the sandy ground with its rays. The waves lapped gently along the shore, making a calming song with the birdsong in the air. The atmosphere was a bit uncomfortable, though, to the thick pelted Clan cats, as the humidity dampened their fur and caused matts. However, they all pushed on, relieved that New Leaf was finally here, so the damp, humid atmosphere was welcome compared to the bitter, freezing, prey deprived Leaf Bare wintery cold. Wind swept gently along the sand, creating a gentle sigh as it swept through the trees.

Picking her way delicately along the sand was a pretty, young brown and white she-cat, shaking a paw in disgust as she tried to shake sand from in between her toes, her lip curled in a repulsed snarl. She hated the feel of the gritty granules in her paw pads, and she let out a gentle sigh as she gave up and continued onwards. She never expected the SkyClan territory to go this far, but it was her own fault, she supposed, for volunteering to go on patrol solo so she could think whilst she renewed the borders and looked for more prey to replenish the Fresh Kill pile. But, mostly to think. She let out another gentle sigh as she gazed around, her tail gently sweeping back and forth as the soft wind blew through her fur. She suddenly saw movement out of the corner of her eye, and the brown and white tabby's gaze zeroed in on a healthy, fat squirrel just five tail lengths to her left, nibbling on a peanut in its paws. She fluidly dropped into a hunter's crouch, stalking slowly and silently along the ground, keeping her weight even as she moved, her whiskers twitching with excitement. She narrowed her eyes into slits, concentrating carefully, only to have her target turn around and run off at the sight of it's predator. Sparrowwhisper let out a frustrated yowl and shot after it, giving chase. The hunt was on.

The she-cat weaves in and out among the sand, her gaze locked on the running squirrel in front of her. She was unaware as she crossed the border into RiverClan territory, unknowing that a RiverClan tom was nearby. She kept chasing the squirrel, gaining in on it.

The grass whisled in the breeze as the heat of the day came rolling in quickly. Fallenstep had decided to take a small hunt for himself today to get away from his friends, who where honestly annoying him today. He walked around the territory slowly, taking in all the sites around him with deep green eyes. "StarClan its hot!" He said under his breath as he continued on.

As quick as a rabbit Fallenstep caught a wiff of a scent that was not his clans. "SkyClan... " he hissed as he chased after the scent. His long stride and quick movement had him following behind the cat infront of him as he prepared to pounce. Without another moment his legs had lifted from the ground quickly as he felt his paws reach the cat infront of him.

Lambpaw cringed upon seeing his nervous smile she knew exactly what she had done wrong. Giving the same timid grin she looked up at tom, "Ahh ha ha tt-t-thanks I w-w-ww-will b-b-but n-n-n-nn-not when i-i-iit conflicts w-w-w-with training of- GAH! Coldheart w-w-would h-h-have my pelt i-i-i-if I d-d-did!" She weakly joked squirming slightly as she thought of all the things she had done wrong.

Lambpaw then blinked a few times before feeling a sudden surge of extreme sadness causing her to burst into tears overwhelmed by everything, "I-I-I-I-I'd drown i-f-f--f-f I w-w-w-w-w-w-would dive i-in!" She squeaked beginning to twitch and tug at her white fur. "I-I-I-I-I-I don't w-w-w-wanna have kits e-e-e-e-either! I d-d-d-d-don't w-w-want them! T-t-t-t-they'd k-k-k-k-kk--k-kill me and I don't w-w-w-wanna d-d-die!" Lambpaw wept the image of herself dead and lying in a pool of her own blood while his kittens wailed not sounding appealing in the slightest. "IT'S TOO B-B-BIG GAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She keened digging her paws into the soft sand as she looked over at the huge conch shell, "I H-H-H-HATE IT! I HATE IT! I W-W-W-WANT TO G-G-GO BACK T-T-TO T-T-T-THUNDERCLAN!" Lambpaw shrieked sure that after her little breakdown Ferretpelt was going to hate her.

The she-cat, whose name was Sparrowwhisper, yowled loudly as a heavy weight slammed into her back. She struggled underneath the larger cat, and used her hind claws to tear at her opponent's soft belly. She knew this would hurt him enough to get him to get off of her.

Ferretpelt stared at Lambpaw, his green eyes wide. He wanted to help her somehow, but he wasn't sure how. He let out a worried whine and pulled her close to his side with his tail, resting his chin on her head, running his tail soothingly over her back before intertwining it with hers. "Sshhh... Lambpaw, sshhh... It's okay, lass." he meowed softly in her ear. He ran his tongue between her ears, smoothing down her fur comfortingly. He then just rested his chin on her head, closing his eyes, and silently waited for her to calm down. He just hoped she knew he was there.

Lambpaw let out a shrill wail her body shaking though the day itself was, in normal Newleaf fashion, warm, "N-N-N-NO IT'S NOT! B-B-B-B-BLOOD, BLOOD S-S-S-SO MUCH BLOOD AND THEY WON'T C-C-C-CRY AND IT WILL BE D-D-DARK, D-D-D-D-DARK, D-D-D-D-D-D-D-DARK!" She sobbed trembling wildly not liking the touch as she kept on the topic of kittens, "I'M TOO FAT TO C-C-C-CARRY KITTENS! AND, TOO Y-Y-Y-YOUNG! I DON'T WANT K-K-K-K-K-K-K-K-KITTEN THEY'LL HATE ME! OhOhOh NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOO!" She bawled her white fur beginning to get dyed by the red crimson that was her blood her pulling becoming worse as she began to further tremor.

Ferretpelt just held her, licking her head in a comforting way. He was pretty scared, as he didn't know how to handle this kind of situation, so he just kept her at his side, resting his tail over her back, licking the blood from her fur as she pulled at it, he didn't like to see her suffering from pain on top of the panic attack, it terrified him. He then whispered in her ear, Lambpaw!!! Listen to me! You are not going to have kits!!! You're too young, and if you were carrying, you would be safe in the nursery! You will not DIE!!! I WON'T EVER LET THAT HAPPEN TO YOU!!! YOU MEAN TOO MUCH TO ME!!!" he was suddenly crying, trying to get through to her. "Please, Lambpaw, please, stop!!! I don't like to see you suffer!!! You must calm down, PLEAASEEE!!!!" he suddenly wailed.

((Uh, I think I just added to the drama x3))

With all of Ferretpelt's screaming at her to calm down, it honestly had the opposite effect. Lamppaw let out a squeal pulling away from the tom, not liking the sudden loud and freaky sounds in her ear, "G-G-G-G-GET AWAY! N-N-N-NO O-O-ON S-S-S-S-S-SECON- GAH! I'LL G-G-G-GET AWAY!" She shrieked, panicky as she rushed away from the sandy beach and into the nearby woodlands sprinting in the direction she thought to be ThunderClan unaware that she had left a sobbing Ferretpelt in her wake.

(So end it here and switch to the gathering? Since we started about two months ago we could do a timeskip maybe? Soon I might also make Lamby a warrior.)

Ferretpelt watched her go, his eyes wide. His tail drooped, and he slowly made his way back to ThunderClan camp, his head hung low. The time he wanted to spend with Lambpaw he was hoping would be a fun, romantic one, but it had ended badly, and he was shaking uncontrollably with guilt, his eyes clouded over. Although he knew her panic attack was not his fault, he still wished he could have prevented it, or helped her somehow. Now what would he do? He didn't know if he could ever face her again, yet, he wanted to know if she would be okay. Maybe she would be at the gathering tonight. Maybe then he could check on her, talk to her, tell her he really liked her. He just wanted to see her again.

((Yeah, sure. And maybe then he can confess his love to her? After he gets past the awkwardness and knows she is okay, of course x3))

[Deerlie]

Foxtail padded in, searching for his mate. "Breezefire?" He called. He saw a she cat race towards him, happiness in her eyes.

"Foxtail.." She said, sitting down.

The gigner tom looked around then nodded, "What is it?" His heart bursted with pride when she said the following words.
"I'm going to have your kits."

A small black she cat was sitting alone, ears flattened. It was her first gathering as an apprentice. Her purple eyes looked around and she whimpered. Why am I so scared? SHe asked herself.

Foxtail padded in, searching for his mate. "Breezefire?" He called. He saw a she cat race towards him, happiness in her eyes.

"Foxtail.." She said, sitting down.

The gigner tom looked around then nodded, "What is it?" His heart bursted with pride when she said the following words.
"I'm going to have your kits."

It had been a long time since the three siblings, ShineFlower, GleamPaw and AcornPaw, had been out on adventures. This meeting was very important to them. They climbed up a a hill, the grey she-cat ShineFlower in the lead, and waited patiently at the top, the wind buffeting their fur. They sat watching the gathering while waving their tails in anticipation. What if they don't come?
Just then, two older cats stepped out of the bushes. "You came!" GleamPaw mewed. As the smallest of the three, AcornPaw, rushed forward to nuzzle their parents, he stopped suddenly an turned around, looking horrified. "Umm...look at this." The five cats stared down at where the ginger Tom had indicated with his tail. "It's a dead cat!" One of them wailed.
Then a dark grey she-cat spoke. "Great Starclan...is that...that's CrispLeaf!"
That name rang a bell.
"The body is freezing...and the blood has dried...and he's filthy. Looks like he's been here for a long time." ShineFlower sighed. "He was most likely killed during the battle with the Dusk Syndicate." The older ginger Tom was speechless. They all stared down at the grey speckled Tom's body in silence, his lifeless eyes shining in the moonlight. After a few moments, VelvetNight wailed and collapsed on the floor with grief. "He was a horrible Tom...horrible to me...horrible to HarmonyBlade...horrible to my kits...horrible to all of you. I shouldn't have let him change my mind. I shouldn't have given you up. He was a horrible Tom but he didn't deserve this. I can only imagine how gruesome his death was."
"It's too late for grieving now...let us bury him and he can sleep in peace...under the moon and the stars." GleamPaw purred, comforting her mother.

"ShineFlower...i know our clans are enemies. Are you going to stay in Windclan?"
"Of course. If something happens to you both...i have nowhere I can really go other than staying with my best friends; my siblings." HarmonyBlade only dipped his head. "I hope we can meet again...soon..." and with that, the five cats turned and went their separate ways.

Fallenstar's fur had bristled, and he looked massive now. Shinefang hardly noticed. His eye flashed with rage and he leaned into the larger tom's face and snarled out, "A search patrol?! As in one?! Well don't go breaking your back or anything for the cat who dedicated her life to healing her clanmates!" Then the leader asked a question that made Shinefang flinch as if he's been struck. How many patient's had he lost? The memory of the night he lost Acornpaw came flooding back and filled his mind. Acornpaw, lying in his den with a wound on his head. Acornpaw, falling asleep with the poppy seeds the medicine cat had given him in his system. Acornpaw smiling as Shinefang promised him he would be ok and that he'd be able to return to his warrior training in a day or so. The medicine cat bristled, baring his teeth as his claws slipped out and dug into the damp earth. "About half as many medicine cats as your clan has lost in just the last year!" Finally, Fallenstar did the one thing that could have made Shinefang even angrier than he already was: try to put even an inkling of blame on him. If anyone had bothered to tell Shinefang the younger cat had gone missing sooner, he would have been glad to help look. He'd have dried up the river if that's what it took. He'd certainly have tried harder than this cat. Did he even know Juniperpaw? Was she anything to him other than an expendable clanmate? If his body would have let him, he'd have leapt on the Riverclan leader and just started clawing until there was nothing left to claw. Instead, he practically pressed his muzzle into Fallenstar's and shouted. "WHAT WAS I DOING?! MY JOB! CARING FOR MY CLANMATES! You must be as stupid as you are fat or you would know that! Maybe you ought to give it a try!" Shinefang would never take a word of what he was saying back. He didn't care if the other cat attacked him. He didn't care that he didn't have a prayer against a much younger and more powerful cat. He wouldn't be the first to use claws tonight, but if Fallenstar attacked him, so be it. In a way, he almost hoped he would. Shinefang could handle claws and teeth in his pelt. He'd felt them many times before. And maybe, if he felt them now, it would distract him from the agony swelling in his veins at the thoughts that he's never see Junebug again, hear her voice, or see her cringe as she handled the sticky cobwebs that clung to the fur between her pads. She was gone. Just like his kits. Just like his mate. Just like everyone Shinefang cared for!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the old medicine cat shoved his face forward, the burly leader did the same, lapis blue eyes blazed with anger, his irises nothing but slits. "Like you have any right to speak." he spat, "I authorized one search patrol so that all cats could go search. You think I didn't spend sleepless nights looking for her? As you sat in your nest all warm and snug, sleeping peacefully, Riverclan was looking for their Medicine Cat." The larger tom shoved himself forward and let out a low, guttural growl. That sorry excuse for a medicine cat needed to learn how to hold his tongue. The Riverclan leader figured he would help wiht that lesson. "Cute. I seem to recall a rumor about your family. Should I retell it to you? Or are their deaths scorched into your brain enough? A pathetic warrior who became a medicine cat to try and fix what he couldn't do before." Fallenstar held nothing back. Yes, Shinefang's statement about Riverclans medicine cats hurt, they had lost Geckoleaf, than they lost Juniperpaw, but he wouldn't be able to live with himself if he let this pathetic orange tabby stake the blame on him. "Maybe you should try to talk to me about this when you're actually able to save one of your patients." the words rolled off his tongue, and on their journey, they singed his throat. Such hurtful words, as sharp as claws, as fangs. What has he become? Of course, that wasn't the first time the leader has asked himself that question, and every time he did, one of the smallest, quietest voices answered with just as much heat as that Wild fire that was started during the second evil era.

'A husk of your formal self.'

The second when the Skyclan medicine cat shoved his muzzle against his was when he about lost it. The leader saw nothing but red, and that only happened once before. That ended with red as well. He let out a growl and stepped forward, pushing the other back a little. "Good. Than keep it that way. Keep your own little nose tucked away in your own little clan. I'll tell you right now, I've saved more lives than you, and yet here you are crying about a feline you barely even knew." he spat. The words that came from Shinefang's mouth stung, heck they burnt, but he wouldn't back down. He was walking home, peacefully, he promised he'd keep his head down, and here came this bumbling idiot going on about how he missed Juniperpaw so much. "Let me tell you this, pal, Junie didn't belong to you, she didn't belong to Daydream, she belonged to her clan. She helped rebuild her clan. Now why don't you run along pretty boy and save your tears. If any other Riverclan members saw you like this, they'd claw you until this version of you was considered the pretty one, because let me tell you, we searched, we wailed, we called, we cried, and we died a little inside when we came to the terms. Each. And every. One of us." he growled, lowering himself so that he was eye level with the medicine cat, and pushed his muzzle up against the others. "So for someone who's only spent a sliver of time with her, compared to her father, her mother, and her siblings. I could give less than a rat's dung about how you feel and about how your poor little feelings got hurt. You don't get that luxury to cry over her. So scamper along." he hissed. Fallenstar kept the gaze a little longer before he lifted his head, a growl still rumbling in his throat. He wouldn't attack, he couldn't, he promised. He promised Waterstreak, he promised Driftingstorm, he promised Rowanflower, and he promised Cedarsprint. As much as he hated it, Shinefang was a medicine cat, he couldn't and wouldn't lift a claw.
