This time, the apprentice was dreaming about being the one who saved the clan from Ratnight. Obviously, that could never have happened. There were lots of reasons, but two main reasons were that Stormpaw was just an apprentice and didn't have enough experience to defeat a warrior like him, and Ratnight had already been defeated. By that cat named....Grousestar? Was that his name? He couldn't remember properly but he was sure that it was something like that. Suddenly, as Stormpaw's fur brushed against Stormpaw's fur, he was immediately dragged out of his thoughts. "Oh, no it's fine. You can stay", Stormpaw said with a smile. "I don't really have no one to talk to anyway so it would be great if you stayed", The stormy coloured apprentice remarked. It would be nice to talk to someone, especially abou the battle that had taken place not very long again. Stormpaw had fought with another apprentice in the battle, one of his own clanmates. He hadn't been a supporter of Ratnight and he felt super guilty when he was fighting but he knew he couldn't give up. He wasn't sure what had happened to the apprentice afterwards. They had both backed off and now he had lost sight of the apprentice.

Stormpaw could feel her pelt beginning to heat up more and she glanced towards Stormpaw for a moment before looking away again. Just maintain eye contact like any normal cat...you're fine, he's friendly...Stormpaw thought, feeling a twinge of nervous anxiety rush through her for a second. The she cat was not good with meeting new cats. And especially when they were so friendly, she didn't have a good excuse to move away.


And even if she did, why would she want to? Stormpaw was being very polite to her. There was no reason why she shouldn't be just as courteous back to him...at least, if she could. "O-oh, well thank you...that's very- very kind of you, I...appreciate it, sorry if I- I interrupted you in the middle of something you were thinking about..." Stormpaw mewed, lowering her gaze once more.


Why did it have to be so difficult for her to be polite? It shouldn't be this hard...but it was.

Stormpaw shook his head. "You didn't interrupt my thoughts. I normally think and daydream anyway. I'm used to it", Stormpaw remarked. He sat there for a moment, thinking about the few sentences they had just spoken. He couldn't help but think they sounded so....polite. They didn't sound like the way apprentice's normally did when they talked. Stormpaw wasn't really used to it. He was a cat who normally spoke with a fun and friendly attitude, he wasn't familiar with being polite like this. The stormy coloured apprentice suddenly realised that his fellow apprentice was still there, probably staring at him awkwardly while he thought of things. Stormpaw felt as though the atmosphere suddenly got more awkward. He looked down at his paws and saw he still had his second vole. "Uh, here. You can have this, I didn't plan on eating both of them anyway", Stormpaw said rather awkwardly, nudging the vole towards Stormpaw. "Forgive my bad memory, but what is your name?", Stormpaw asked, realising he still didn't even know the name of the cat he was talking to. He would never had thought the cat he was talking to had the same name as him though.

Stormpaw gave the tom an uneasy smile, trying to look as friendly as she possibly could. It was better to be friendly, after all, rather than being rude. "Oh. Well good, I would have hated to interrupt you doing something important," Stormpaw mewed, allowing herself another few fleeting moments of eye contact. Don't force it, Stormpaw...don't force it, She thought, feeling a slight bout of alarm rush through her mind. She wondered if it had shown. Had she appeared that nervous? Hopefully not, surely she hadn't...right?


"Oh! Well th- thank you, that's very courteous of you," Stormpaw mewed with another, more friendly smile. Yes, it was certainly rare to find a tom so friendly as Stormpaw, although she was determined not to show her surprise. That would be giving too much away too soon, and Stormpaw was not one to give her trust easily. Nor her friendship. The she cat was not easy to win over, although she did have to admit that another friendly face was more than welcome in her everyday life. "Hm? Oh, Stormpaw- I mean, I'm Stormpaw. That's my- my name." Stormpaw mewed, embarrassed to have been caught off guard by the question. How dumb could she have been, thinking that he wouldn't want to know her name? Of course he would, it was a natural thing...and yet it had caught her off guard. "You'll have to forgive me as well, I don't seem to recall your name either," The feline laughed nervously, her blue hues glancing up at him worriedly as she did so.

Then hearing Orchidkit say he was going to 'Break some rules she shook her head slowly. "And what rules will you be breaking exactly?", The las asked as she tilted her head slightly. Orchidkit could break as many as he wanted probably go a bit overboard with the rule breaking. Then hearing his offer she thought about it for a moment and smiled. "Sure why not, maybe you can tell me some of your idea's?", The molly said.

"Like a rock?" He seemed to actually be thinking seriously about this for a moment, though he really wasn't. "Nope - like a mountain!" Orchidkit had never been ashamed of his size, being much bigger than most other cats his age and believed he might become one of the biggest warrior in Thunderclan. Instead, he loved it! Orchidkit liked that others knew he was big, it meant he was just dung to be bigger and stronger than most cats. He would scare the dung out of anyone who dared mess with him!

He gave off a shrug at her next question. "I don't know, pretty much just sneaking out, but where ever the day bring me I suppose," he laughed at this. He didn't usually think ahead and plan everything out and would much rather just live in the moment. Though of course he did look for to the future such as becoming an apprentice and warrior, but he had no real plans except mess around once he became one.

The tom waved to her with his tail to follow as he headed towards their usual hole behind the nursery in order to sneak out of camp. It was so small, and he had claw around the edges to get through. His fur was thicker now that leaf-bare was here, and that certainly did not help. Once he was freed he turned towards Timberkit as she asked for him to share some ideas. "Honestly... I want to explore the other territories. Like the other clans and even outside the clans," even he knew it sounded a bit too... extravagant, even for him. "I don't want to steal food from other clans or anything like that, but rather just explore it a little, ya know?"

seawatcher bowed her head. " i was wrong about starclan." she murmured

"I think a LARGE mountain would fit the best.", The molly purred a little though she wasn't good at teasing, she liked messing around with the tom. Then hearing his response from her other question she frowned a little. "I'm surprised you haven't gotten caught yet...", Timberkit mewed as she followed after the tom. Then seeing him struggle to get through the small hole she couldn't help but laugh. "Are you still proud of your size Orchidkit?", Timberkit chuckled as she easily made her way through. She tuck her tongue out at him before she bounded away with her fluffy tail swaying behind her. She was still paying attention to the tom and skidded to a stop. "Hey, the only way we will be able to go into the other clan territories is a quest...But if you go I'm going It might be fun. Even If we will be breaking the rules. Another reason is so that you wont get killed.", Timberkit was being completely honest. She didn't care if he thought his size was going to make him scary, even if he was most likely will get into a fight.

Burntwhisker entered back into the clearing. The battle was over. She sighed as she sat down. Her wounds were crusting, so whenever she stretched or moved to much the wounds would open back up, which made the small she-cat have pain. She had wounds on her back and on her flank. At the moment, the feline did not look her best. There were bald patches where fur used to be from where the apprentice pulled them out.

Foxclaw sat up from his spot and looked around. Everything looked different to him compared to before the battle. He felt a sharp pain lingering on his side, and saw dried blood smeared on his side. 'Was it all worth it?' He asked himself, walking forward blindly. He was oblivious to where he was walking towards, and that happened to be towards Burntwhisker.

The she-cat watched as a tom came near her, "Hello," she said simply, "You ok?" she asked wondering if he got into a fight during the battle.

Foxclaw suddenly snapped back to reality, so sudden it took him a moment to realize what was going on. "Y-yeah, I'm fine, I'll survive" He quickly mewed, blinking at the she-cat.
