ThunderClan: Life Before 2020's Fire

"Minnowkit, you've opened your eyes!", Crowsong meowed. "They're very, very pretty.", the queen said, smiling. (Crowsong smiles too much. XD)

Minnowkit, figuring the words were positive, gave a tiny returning smile and purred, glancing around and squirming to sit up. She finally managed to do so, and though she was small, she looked amazed at her "skills".

Rosefern a queen entered to socialize with her friend, Rileyflower. She licked her paw before settling down rearranging her belly so she could lay comfortably," Rileyflower.How's the hunting been as its been awhile for me." She purred slightly.

The southern belle looked up at the queen as they called it , it's been so odd being in a clan since she used to be a kittypet . She hasn't had the chance to hunt yet her ice blue eyes lit up but showed a tad confusion
" well ya see ah haven't been able ta hunt yet sugar ... I just had mah warrior name . And now its ah bit confusing ...I'm so used to being what they call it a kittypet ? " she meowed as she dipped her head in a way to show respect to all cats

Rileyflower nose twitched only many moons ago that her name was only Riley , but non the less she was excited and willing to help her newfound home any way she possibly could . She had a soft smile as her ear flicked . She still thought about her old and now deceased kitty pet friend beast.
" how are ya if ah may ask? " she asked in her southern accent

Stoneheart found the colour of Minnowkit's eyes were very beautiful. The new father could not help but smile as he watched his daughter grinned for the first time. She had sat up! His proudness kicked in and he gave his tiny kit a lick on the forehead. "Aren't you ahead of your siblings?" He said, in an almost teasing way, gesturing to Minnowkit's litter mates. Stoneheart gazed down at the other kits, wondering when they would open their eyes too.

(OMG I luv the accent)
Rosefern smiled,” I’m doing good. I’m sure the kits will be born rather soon. I’d guessing.” She twitched her ear a little, she was friends with Rileyflower, but it was a little hard to understand her southern accent.

[Random Melody]

The tom wrapped his paws around Mintkit in that protective shell, a big-brother type of move, and then smiled at her as she spoke. "Ha, your fierceness needs a LOT of work. Like, a ton." He purred, tapping her on the head with a paw, a purr rumbling in his chest. Being a warrior now, Marshjump wasn't sure whether or not it was considered 'right' for him to be hanging out with Mintkit, but then again... he had always been one for defying expectations. He remembered that he hadn't been expected to become a warrior so early (and yes, he was young for a warrior) but Marshjump had anyways. He had trained hard and he had proven that he was ready. "Thank you, lil' Minty. That means a lot." He mewed, a small smile coming across his face as he looked over his young friend. She was encouraging him. She would encourage him throughout this time, and Marshjump was confident that she was the perfect friend. Even more confident then he had already been. No, there was no way that he could give up Mintkit - ever. He needed her, and... if he wasn't mistaken... she needed him as well. At the moment, Marshpaw relied on Mintkit as one might rely on a vital need for life. And for his emotional life, she was a vital need.


Mintkit laughed as he tapped her on the head, gently batting her paws against his chest and sticking her tongue out. "Oh, you, hush. I'll be fierce one day." She told him, then grinned warmly and reached up, pressing her head under his chin. Her ears laid back, a soft purr rumbling through her, vibrating the kit's entire body. "Always." She mewed, pressing her nose against his chin affectionately, her ice blue eyes filled with complete seriousness as she stared up at him, head cocking slightly to the side before she smiled again. "So you're a warrior now - Anything you'd like to do with that?" She laughed a little, her eyes warm.

Rosefern was tired from birthing the kits,” Lightingflash, aren’t they beautiful?” She purred staring at her five newborn kits...she glanced at them thinking of names...she stared at the white one, who little did she know would have bi-colored eyes,” I like Emeraldkit for this one.” She pointed at the dark grey tabby,” I do like Darkkit and Ashkit...you decide...(the RPer wants Ashkit).” She flicked her tail to the third kit the grey and white kit,” I do like Mousekit myself, what do you think? (he RPer wants Dewkit).” She turned to the fourth kit with all grey fur, almost a grey tabby,” I was thinking Cirruskit. You?” She turned to the last kit,” How about Owlkit for this cutie?” (I couldn’t view link so no perso description)

"I am impressed.", Crowsong meowed, watching Minnowkit as she sat up. The gray she-cat looked over at Stoneheart, trying to stifle a smile as she looked at him.

Duskkit heard a small commotion beside her and lifted her head from her tiny paws, confused at what was so exciting to her sibling. Almost concerned, she tried to look; the light no longer burnt her eyes but everything was so blurry her head began to ache. Disheartened, she dropped her head onto her paws again and squinted at the world through near-closed eyes.

[Starfall]

Caliapaw was still in shock. Just a moon ago she had been training to be a warrior, another ordinary cat in the Clan. That was where she belonged - being ordinary. She had never done anything remotely extraordinary, she had never been that cat who was so amazing and perfect and loved, and she most certainly was not a role model. Why would anyone want to be like her? It wasn't a bad thing, having the low confidence level that she did - it just meant she second guessed herself a lot, and stuff like that. So who would want to have a friend who was always second guessing themselves? The blondish feline sat in the clearing, her tail curled around her paws, her eyes scanning it for anyone who looked familiar. At the moment, Caliapaw didn't really have a lot of close friends. Or "friends" in general, cats just didn't seem to be attracted to her quite as easily as they were to someone else. It had been a problem when she was younger but now, now it didn't bother the she cat at all. She was perfectly fine with being alone. She would always have her family, and the friends that she had, and perhaps over time more cats would slowly introduce themselves to her. It was going to take her a while to fully trust them, of course, but Caliapaw would make sure that she became a little more friendly. After all... if she was going to be dealing with cats all day, every day, she was going to have to be sure to make herself more approachable. Or maybe she shouldn't change a thing - they could deal with it, right?

The light brown feline padded into the clearing, a plum squirrel swung from his jaws. He hadn't heard the news yet, at the moment he was oblivious to the amazing event that had taken place in his siblings life. His small, white, delicate paws landed upon the earth beneath him with a soft thump with each pawstep he took. He looked around the clearing, his dark, ocean blue eyes flickered with curiosity beneath his long lashes. As he was looking around he spotted a familiar pale cream pelt, which in turn made the older feline hasten his pawsteps. He dropped the grey piece of prey in the pile and hopped over the corpses, his bob of a tail bouncing as he landed. Doepaw's eyes were half idled and an elegant smile was plastered on his white muzzle " You look troubled...is everything alright?" he asked, slowing down, his soft smile slowly melted away to that of a concerned look. The brown tom cared deeply for his younger sister, they had been very close as siblings, they were practically joined at the hip. When the older became an apprentice, only a moon or so before his sister, they still managed to keep that close sibling relationship. It didn't take much to see that Caliapaw was upset, though for others it was, he could tell by the way she positioned herself, he could practically sense her trouble. The tom sat himself down and looked at her intently, his blue hues danced with worry.

Rileyflowers ears perked up with her mouth open she was interested in this , she loved kits they brought a smile to her face . She wished she had kits of her own but who would go for a southern clan cat?? She now had a wide smile as her tail thrashed happily
" Oh Mah stars! Well congratulations sugar ! " she meowed as she spun around and her ears twitched in joy . Ever since she was a kittypet she remembered her old owner visiting some lost kits but didn't bother bringing them in since she had her own cat to take care of.

The She cat finally calmed her nerves as She sat back down with a giggle her blue eyes where calming . She pawed the ground with her left paw she was embarrassed at getting excited they werent her kits after all . But maybe she could visit them? Nah that would be considered stalking or would it? Her mind was going through a bunch of questions " sorry sugar " she added with a nervous smile

Rosebelly limped into the clearing, shoulder aching from its previous wrench. The Gathering battle had been shocking and perilous, but she had survived. Her apprentice didn't though. Alliumeyes had been savagely killed by a Syndicate cat. It was rather shocking to see. A bright young warrior's expression turned from cheerful to angry and fearful was a horrifying thing to see each time the warrior comes to mind. But that moment had her thinking: what ever happened to her mentor? Memories of her mentor were foggy and unclear. She remembered being happy until she smelled fox, and then.. nothing. Rosebelly felt utterly defeated. Her apprentice was dead, and her mentor was missing both physically and mentally. Her mental and emotional state was in shambles.

Rosebelly shook her head and refocused back on the real world. Frowning, Rosebelly bent her head to lap at her healing shoulder wound. It was a bit crusted with blood, and it needed to be cleaned a bit. She had to at least look presentable and healthy. When Rosebelly finished, she looked up and scanned the camp. Many cats were sharing tongues, and the molly longed to talk with someone. Someone close to her, someone who kept secrets. Someone like.. family. Rosebelly squinted and searched for one of her kin, feeling slightly refreshed.

Darkrose padded up to Rosebelly. She smiled warmly, "is your shoulder okay, Rosebelly?" Her brows furrowed in concern. Her feet itched from the scratchy grass, so she was constantly shifting her weight to make it more comfortable. She was concerned for her injured sister and wanted to help her feel better. "If you're feeling up to it, do you want to go hunting?" She gently asked, glaring at the staring cats looking at Rosebelly curiously. She tended to overprotect her sisters from other cats, even if they meant no harm. "What do you say, Rosebelly? I understand if you don't want to because of your should wound, and all. I just wanted to offer."

She purred,” It’s fine. I am pretty happy. Lightningflash is the father, I bet he’ll be an amazing father.... I wonder how many I’ll have....hopefully no stillborns.” She drifted off imagining them.

Rileyflower had a sigh of relief her ears now relaxing as she cleaned her fur , surprisingly life as a clan cat was going really well! She figured it would be a disaster , other cats calling her names like twocat or something
" ya don't m-mind that ah used to be a kittypet right ? " she asked as she tilted her head , the curiosity was nipping at her bones again she just had to know even though it was a probably stupid question to ask . Now she had a mixture of nervousness and fear plus curiosity swirling around in her stomach and going through her bones , it was an odd feeling but it was good to know that she was able to have feelings even mixed up ones , thankfully she wasn't a savage Dusk syndicate cat . Who on the other hand have no soul.

Rosefern was rather shocked by the question,” No...as a matter-a-fact as an apprentice I was exploring past the border, I was foolish then and entered a loner’s territory and den...and slept there (get the Goldielocks reference?) and then I awoke and found a grumpy tom named Bear. I appologized and told him I was from Thunderclan...he was intregued and followed me to Thunderclan, you probably know him now as Bearfur. Then I mentored a former rouge once named Grassy....until warriorhood where he finally took a clan name of Grassblade. I never have had a similar experience with a kittypet, but my friend Peachrain adopted a kittypet kit and I didn’t hate her kit for that...and one of my former apprentices...Chameleonvine is mentoring Peachrain’s adoptive son, Bingo. You perhaps are thinking of my err...savage sister Ferngaze who attacks former kittypets if she’s alone with them...though she’s a horrible fighter so you don’t really need to worry.” She purred

Emeraldkit laid needing her mother as she suckled, her freshly groom white pelts rose and fell as she breathed. A quiet purr came from her even though she was so young.

[Empress Of Evil]

"Oh," Was his simple one word response to Honeyvenom's words. 'Oh?' What is wrong with you? For some reason, Leafsparks just seemed to be out of it. Despite his newfound freedom, and how much he realized he had missed just talking to other she cats, the tom didn't seem to feel too happy. It was like becoming free, only to find that he was still not truly able to engage in pleasant conversations because... what, had he forgotten how? That wouldn't even make sense! Yet it was the very thing that seemed to be going on, Leafsparks actually appeared to have forgotten how to engage in a pleasant conversation! His dark irises flashed with deep embarassment and the tom gave a small chuckle. "Um, so, do you like to do a lot of things?" Leafsparks attempted a smile, finally feeling a little calmer.

As he'd already had to tell himself earlier, it wasn't as though his "ex" would come barreling around a corner and crash into him, screaming at him about the fact that he was talking to another she cat. Oh, for - it's not going to be the end of the world! He was annoyed with himself. Was there ever going to be a time when he felt really and truly free? Probably not, not at this rate, anyways. The tip of Leafspark's tail flicked nervously. He felt like he was on borrowed time, except his mind was perfectly aware that he wasn't.

"Uh... you, um, want to maybe get out of here?" Leafsparks felt like he was being watched. Everyone looked like their eyes were on him, and it was making the tom highly uncomfortable. He felt as though he was never going to be able to get a moment alone. Never going to be able to just realize that he was okay. But, if he were to get out with Honeyvenom, maybe he would feel more okay. He liked the she cat. She was pretty, and she looked really smart, and she had this sort of calm air around her that was nice. Everything that Minnowtail hadn't been. Everything that, had she been, Leafsparks would have been satisfied to stay with her for good. But as it was, he was with this she cat. This could end up being the best choice or the worst mistake that the tom had ever made, and honestly? He couldn't wait to find out which one it was going to be.

[Sorry this is so late!]

At his response, Honeyvenom gave no reply of her own. Mostly because she didn’t have anything that she could really say in response. There wasn’t much that she could really say in response to ‘Oh!’. So she didn’t bother trying. Instead, she just gave the tom a small smile and hoped that that would give him whatever answer he might’ve wanted to receive. Sometimes, the best way to go about things was just by smiling. A smile could say a lot of things. But at the same time, a smile could be pointless and mean absolutely nothing to the cat she was chatting with. Things? She questioned silently. The she-cat wasn’t exactly sure what he meant by ‘things’. “Well, it depends on what you mean by ‘things’?” She asked. She didn’t want to assume and say something completely wrong if she assumed wrong. That would just be embarrassing.

The tom seemed a little bit….nervous. Like he was expecting something to suddenly jump out at him. Honeyvenom noticed the way that his tail tip flicked nervously and took this as a sign that something was on his mind. She on the other hand was very calm. Nothing in particular was bothering her and life was pretty normal. The warrior lived a generally problem free life. Of course, there were those everyday problems, like not being able to find as much prey as she wanted, but more so, she didn’t have to deal with drama. Honeyvenom was a friendly cat and even a little distant. She avoided drama where possible and kept herself out of the business of others.

“Sure,” Honeyvenom agreed, nodding her head. She didn’t mind getting out of camp and going into the territory. Her paws could do with a bit of a stretch and a walk through the forest would be nice. The other warrior looked like he could do with some fresh air. Of course, they already had fresh air, since they lived in the forest, but the forest had a calm vibe to it and it could easily relax anyone. The gentle breeze and chirps of the birds could relieve her of any stress that was clinging onto her. Hopefully the forest would work its miracles on the tom. “Shall we go?” she asked. She stood up gracefully as smoothed down her fur as she waited for the tom to stand up. She was guessing that he would do so. Most cats would agree and stand up as well if they were asked that. It was just something that a lot of cats did. ‘Shall we go’ wasn’t much of a question. It was more or less saying ‘let’s go now’.

"I am impressed.", Crowsong meowed, watching Minnowkit as she sat up. The gray she-cat looked over at Stoneheart, trying to stifle a smile as she looked at him.

Minnowkit squeaked delightedly, her big blue eyes surveying the things around her. She couldn't wait to explore it..but everything looked so big! And she was so small! Anything could squash her! She put on a calm expression and turned to her sibling, giving her a tiny nudge with her paw.

Duskkit squeaked in surprised as a tiny paw tapped her side. She lifted her head again and squinted at a blurred shape beside her, too small to be her mother. Was this one of her siblings? She wriggled around a little until she managed to sit up, looking at this other tiny cat with half-closed eyes.

"Minnowkit, that's your littermate, Duskkit.", she said to Minnowkit.

Mintkit laughed as he tapped her on the head, gently batting her paws against his chest and sticking her tongue out. "Oh, you, hush. I'll be fierce one day." She told him, then grinned warmly and reached up, pressing her head under his chin. Her ears laid back, a soft purr rumbling through her, vibrating the kit's entire body. "Always." She mewed, pressing her nose against his chin affectionately, her ice blue eyes filled with complete seriousness as she stared up at him, head cocking slightly to the side before she smiled again. "So you're a warrior now - Anything you'd like to do with that?" She laughed a little, her eyes warm.


The tom gently rested his chin on top of her head, although it was already there - so it was more like he put slightly more pressure there, a purr still rumbling in his own chest and throat. Every part of him was half-vibrating, like he was TOO happy to see the young kit. "Yeah, in like a million moons," He teased her with an adoring expression. Someday soon, Mintkit would be an apprentice - and then there would be all sorts of new adventures for the two of them! Marshjump only wished that it had happened while he was still one, so that they could talk about training together... but now, there would be other conversations to hold. "Well, I figured that I would use my natural abilities to charm WindClan into quitting fighting... and then train an apprentice or something," The tom teased. He wished that this "thing" with WindClan would end. There was no sense in fighting! It was getting them nowhere - literally, nowhere. It was just too bad everyone else couldn't see that too. But, he had to trust Snowstar - she wouldn't let them down. Marshjump liked the leader, and he really believed that they would be fine.

The young apprentice looked up at her brother - her older brother, that was, though that didn't necessarily bother her at all. She still loved Doepaw, and he was one of the few cats she really trusted. "Everything's... okay," Caliapaw answered, though she sounded uncertain. Was it really okay? Or was she lying because she was uncertain whether or not everything actually was going to be fine? "It's just - something kind of weird happened lately," She added a second later. Doepaw was just trying to help. He had always understood her the best out of all her siblings, and she very much appreciated his help, but - she just wasn't sure if he could help her with this. Who in the Clan would understand what it was like? Nobody. Nobody would understand. She thought with a sigh.

It didn't help that Wheatfur was now dead, leaving her the medicine cat... that was, perhaps, the worst part of this. Caliapaw didn't know what she was doing! She'd barely been trained for this! "Wheatfur - he asked me to be his apprentice, and I - I said yes, but it all happened so quickly... and now he's dead... Doepaw, I'm the medicine cat!" Her voice was quiet despite the fact that this should, at this point, be clanwide news. She didn't want anyone to know quite yet, she wasn't ready for them to look at her differently. For up until this point, Caliapaw had been an insignificant cat in the Clan. Every life counted, sure, but she had been... well... just another apprentice to be a warrior someday.

She wasn't cut out for this job! It probably should have boosted her confidence, but it was lower then before... because with Wheatfur gone, Caliapaw knew that the Clan was relying on her. And it was sending her into a state of depression. How was she supposed to heal her Clan if she barely knew what she was doing here?

Emeraldkit laid needing her mother as she suckled, her freshly groom white pelts rose and fell as she breathed. A quiet purr came from her even though she was so young.
She licked Emeraldkit softly,” I love you so much sweet-heart.” She knew she only had about six moons to say it before the kit would reject her saying anything like that.

Sorrelpaw glanced nervously out of the apprentice den. When he saw a clear path to the fresh kill pile he stretched out of the den, breathing in the cold morning air. He made a run for it hoping not to run into someone but quickly thought about the fresh kill instead, as he had bad luck. And just his luck he bumped into someone when he was only halfway to the pile.

Badgerthroat was also about to head to the kill pile as he was bumped into by sorrelpaw he didn't mean to but he shrieked like a she cat and flopped down on the ground and put his paws on his head to cover it from any sort of fighting that might happen. Even though the brown and black and white speckled tom seemed strong and cute he was such a scaredy cat! Truth be told from the gathering not to long ago he fled from it before a fight would break out
" don't attack me! " he meowed as he covered his head and shook his tail flicking

Badgerthroat had a smile on his jaws he couldn't help but wonder why sorrelpaw would squeeze his eyes shut , he wasn't gonna harm him for accidental bumping into him , he wasn't the type for violence . I mean sure he would fight for his clanmates and his home but if there would be an opportunity to flee a fight or battle he would definitely take it . Flight or fight , flight only means that you will save the battle for another day while fight you'll end it then and there.

Rileyflower sucked in some air in disgust , how bad was it for other cats to join this clan? Why they act no more then spoiled kits ! All cats are born from the same blood there just from different locations . Her blue eyes now had a deadly cold look to them , but yet why was she getting so riled up about this?

Darkrose padded up to Rosebelly. She smiled warmly, "is your shoulder okay, Rosebelly?" Her brows furrowed in concern. Her feet itched from the scratchy grass, so she was constantly shifting her weight to make it more comfortable. She was concerned for her injured sister and wanted to help her feel better. "If you're feeling up to it, do you want to go hunting?" She gently asked, glaring at the staring cats looking at Rosebelly curiously. She tended to overprotect her sisters from other cats, even if they meant no harm. "What do you say, Rosebelly? I understand if you don't want to because of your should wound, and all. I just wanted to offer."
As if on cue, her sister strode up to her, smiling. Despite her warm facade, Rosebelly knew Darkrose was worried. Chuckling and smiling through the annoying ache, Rosebelly met her sibling's eyes. "I feel fine, it's just a little ache. No biggie," she half-truthed. In reality, Rosebelly was not fine on the inside, but on the outside, the molly was good. Only occasional aches washed over her shoulder, and Rosebelly didn't mind it too much. At the mention of hunting, Rosebelly's eyes lit up. Previous problem in the back of her mind, Rosebelly grinned. Hunting was her favorite activity! She always brought back prey from a hunting trip. Rosebelly was amazing at hunting, and she knew it. "Nevermind my shoulder, let's go! I haven't been outside of camp since the Gathering," she chirped, bouncing onto her feet.

Rosefern was tired from birthing the kits,” Lightingflash, aren’t they beautiful?” She purred staring at her five newborn kits...she glanced at them thinking of names...she stared at the white one, who little did she know would have bi-colored eyes,” I like Emeraldkit for this one.” She pointed at the dark grey tabby,” I do like Darkkit and Ashkit...you decide...(the RPer wants Ashkit).” She flicked her tail to the third kit the grey and white kit,” I do like Mousekit myself, what do you think? (he RPer wants Dewkit).” She turned to the fourth kit with all grey fur, almost a grey tabby,” I was thinking Cirruskit. You?” She turned to the last kit,” How about Owlkit for this cutie?” (I couldn’t view link so no perso description)
(She's white and silver with blue eyes.)
Owlkit let out a silent roar of a yawn, cuddling up next to her mother and siblings as her white and silver fur fluffed up to retain her warmth.

Darkrose smiled and bounced towards the hunting grounds. "I'm glad you're feeling better," she said as she approached the hunting grounds. The scenery began to slowly change. Sticks and stones appeared beneath her feet as she walked, seemingly growing from the ground. She looked around as the trees blurred past her as she ran. She stopped and checked behind her to make sure Rosebelly was behind her. She felt a pang of guilt as she remembered her sister's injury and had went ahead of her. "You okay?" She called concernedly.

Stoneheart found the colour of Minnowkit's eyes were very beautiful. The new father could not help but smile as he watched his daughter grinned for the first time. She had sat up! His proudness kicked in and he gave his tiny kit a lick on the forehead. "Aren't you ahead of your siblings?" He said, in an almost teasing way, gesturing to Minnowkit's litter mates. Stoneheart gazed down at the other kits, wondering when they would open their eyes too.

Adderkit forced out a yawn that nearly snapped his jaw, but as he did, his eyes opened a bit, and he instantly wrenched them open in pure shock. The world was so bright, and fun looking, and..... so big. His eyes were the light blue that all kittens had, but they would go to the deep shade of green gold with time. He just sat there, his eyes wide with surprise, and took it all in.

Duskkit squeaked in surprised as a tiny paw tapped her side. She lifted her head again and squinted at a blurred shape beside her, too small to be her mother. Was this one of her siblings? She wriggled around a little until she managed to sit up, looking at this other tiny cat with half-closed eyes.

Crowsong looked at her daughters. "Minnowkit, that's your littermate, Duskkit.", she said to Minnowkit.

Minnowkit noted that the other kit was named Duskkit, and her name was Minnowkit. She curled up, looking around the nursery with big, excited but fearful eyes.

Cherrydawn padded quietly into the leader's den, her heart racing. Skyfeather was right on her tail. Just like they had planned, she had gone to fetch him at first light and escorted him to Thunderclan camp. Now was the moment that held the potential to either make her the happiest cat in all the clans, or devastate her. Now, she would be asking Snowstar if Skyfeather could join Thunderclan. She glanced back at the black and white tom and smiled reassuringly. The camp would be waking up soon, and they'd wake up to nostils full of Windclan smell. Already it was filling the den. Swallowing, Cherrydawn padded further inside. "Snowstar?" the ginger and white shecat meowed softly. "It's me, Cherrydawn. I'm so sorry to bother you so early." The shecat was a fairly new warrior, and she wasn't even sure if Snowstar would remember her from her warrior ceremony. The leader had all of Thunderclan to look after, after all. And kits too. "I have... we have something to tell you." The shecat turned her head and flicked her tail, signalling for Skyfeather to come closer.

[Tundra]

Skyfeather stayed close to Cherrydawn. He was afraid that a ThunderClan cat would wake up and attack him. The tom exhaled quietly and slipped into the leaders den after the ThunderClan warrior. Skyfeather felt his paws trembling as he hid behind Cherrydawn. What if she rejects me? What if she attacks me?
What if Blazingstar find out? What if the two clans do battle, then I'd be fighting my clan. So many thoughts raced through his mind that he couldn't keep track of them all.
If Snowstar refuses to accept me... Then... He shook his pelt. No. Don't think about that.

Snowstar usually stayed in the nursery with her kits but right now she just needed time to think. Peace and quiet. Blazingstar's declaration of war still rang through her ears, and she unconsciously flattened them against her skull, as if that could silence it. No, she still heard it. WindClan and ThunderClan really were going to war, and that thought made the leader wince. She... Still couldn't believe she did anything wrong. Really. Well, maybe taking that WindClan warrior prisoner was a little extreme, but she was unharmed, and Snowstar had just been trying to prove a point. Bad way to prove a point, but still. Accusing them of murder wasn't that bad, and stealing prey? She had to. She had no other choice. She wasn't going to apologize because each time, she was just doing what she thought was best for ThunderClan. That wasn't wrong. That couldn't be wrong.

She was snapped from her thoughts when she heard someone speak, and her head raised instantly. Cherrydawn. Of course she remembered the young she-cat. The Siamese quickly pushed herself to sit up, ears pricking. "Yes, hello. What is it?" Her voice was warm, pushing away the negative emotions swirling inside. She did tense a little when WindClan scent hit her nose, and her ice blue gaze flickered over to Skyfeather for a split second. Her eyes narrowed, not exactly hostile, but clearly wondering what a WindClan cat was doing here. But she said nothing more and turned her gaze back to Cherrydawn. Whatever the reason, Snowstar could only hope that her warrior could provide a good reason for bringing a WindClan warrior into her den.

Her eyes narrowed, not exactly hostile, but clearly wondering what a WindClan cat was doing here. But she said nothing more and turned her gaze back to Cherrydawn. Whatever the reason, Snowstar could only hope that her warrior could provide a good reason for bringing a WindClan warrior into her den.


"Snowstar," Cherrydawn began, fighting to keep her voice steady. This will work. She'll say yes. She has to say yes! "This is Skyfeather. As you can tell, he's from Windclan." The shecat twined her tail with the tom's giving him an encouraging smile. "We're in love. We've been in love since my first gathering when we were apprentices." Cherrydawn kept her gaze steady as she looked at her leader, trying to be brave. "I know I've broken the warrior code. I'll take whatever punishment you need to give me. I know that it won't be any worse than knowing that I've let my mother in Starclan down. But Skyfeather and I, we don't want to be apart anymore. He wants to join Thunderclan so we can be together. I know this is a lot for me to ask. We're at war with Windclan... but Skyfeather is a good cat! A wonderful cat." The shecat gazed lovingly at Skyfeather, cuing him to make his case to join. This will work. It has to work.

Duskkit squeaked in surprised as a tiny paw tapped her side. She lifted her head again and squinted at a blurred shape beside her, too small to be her mother. Was this one of her siblings? She wriggled around a little until she managed to sit up, looking at this other tiny cat with half-closed eyes.

Crowsong looked at her daughters. "Minnowkit, that's your littermate, Duskkit.", she said to Minnowkit.
Adderkit forced out a yawn that nearly snapped his jaw, but as he did, his eyes opened a bit, and he instantly wrenched them open in pure shock. The world was so bright, and fun looking, and..... so big. His eyes were the light blue that all kittens had, but they would go to the deep shade of green gold with time. He just sat there, his eyes wide with surprise, and took it all in.
Minnowkit noted that the other kit was named Duskkit, and her name was Minnowkit. She curled up, looking around the nursery with big, excited but fearful eyes.

Stoneheart looked at each of his kits. Oh they had such beautiful, innocent, young eyes that surveyed the world in a more positive, simple, almost perfect way. He noticed that Rainkit still hadn't opened her eyes, perhaps she was just late. Crowsong looked so fresh, being a mother was totally something she was good at. He hoped that he was a good father. Come to think of it he hadn't interacted with his kits as much as he liked. Maybe once they could walk without tripping or stumbling he could teach them how to play mossball or a hunting crouch. He wanted to teach them and he wanted them to be proud to say that he's their father. "Hey." Stoneheart said turning to face his kits, a brilliant idea in his mind. "Would you like to hear a story?" He asked with a hopeful look on his silver face. little-life-light

[Tundra]

Skyfeather still felt unsteady under the leaders gaze. "Uhh..." He struggled to find the words he needed to convince Snowstar.
He took a deep breath and opened his jaws to speak. "Please Snowstar.
What she said was true, we have been in love since apprentices. I know I've broken the code alot. I'm sorry. But I swear I'm loyal. I just don't want to face Cherrydawn in battle. I don't even what to fight ThunderClan." The warrior paused for a few moments.
"Cherrydawn and I want to be in the same clan. We don't want to be separated anymore. I... I love Cherrydawn, and I wanted to join ThunderClan so she wouldn't have to leave everything behind..." Skyfeather lowered his head.
"So please, Snowstar?"

She tilted her head
" moss? We can lay on moss? Ah didn't know that sugar .... The dirt just feels so cold! " she meowed as she shook her fur she was just laying on the ground since mostly didn't see any moss laying around , her nose twitched as she sniffed the floor she then walked around trying to spot some moss near by
" ah really didn't know " she admitted
(I’m weak RN)
She nodded,” Yeah...most cats sleep on moss...we rely on apprentices to remove the thorns from it and not all apprentices are perfect they ocassionally leave thorns in it.

[Mango]

(She's white and silver with blue eyes.)
Owlkit let out a silent roar of a yawn, cuddling up next to her mother and siblings as her white and silver fur fluffed up to retain her warmth.
She purred,” Owlkit aren’t you a pretty she-kit...and Emeraldkit is a pretty kit too...” she smiled

Rosefern was tired from birthing the kits,” Lightingflash, aren’t they beautiful?” She purred staring at her five newborn kits...she glanced at them thinking of names...she stared at the white one, who little did she know would have bi-colored eyes,” I like Emeraldkit for this one.” She pointed at the dark grey tabby,” I do like Darkkit and Ashkit...you decide...(the RPer wants Ashkit).” She flicked her tail to the third kit the grey and white kit,” I do like Mousekit myself, what do you think? (he RPer wants Dewkit).” She turned to the fourth kit with all grey fur, almost a grey tabby,” I was thinking Cirruskit. You?” She turned to the last kit,” How about Owlkit for this cutie?” (I couldn’t view link so no perso description)
Ashkit rolled onto her back, mewling weakly. She squirmed on the ground helplessly on her back.

Junipersight blindly swiped at a dead lead beside him, the sounds of the crunching foliage having previously annoyed him. His audits flicked every now and then, not seeming like they would stop any time soon; they couldn’t help themselves though. Without any view of what was going on, the tom basically relied upon his ears and nostrils, as they were basically his only way of knowing what was happening around him. Auburn tresses tangled with moss and burrs, the male sat in a column-like shape, blatantly swerving his cranium around for lack of anything else to do.

Cuckootree crept up on the blind guizzer from behind, he had a cruel sense of humor” JUNIPERSIGHT!” He shouted from behind of him hoping he hadn’t scented him as after all he was downwind he purred in amusement,” Did I scare ya?” He chuckled a little.

As much as Junipersight wanted to roll his eyes at the sudden exclamation, the tom could merely only scowl. A sigh broke through his lips, as the tom dictated — or tried to dictate — who the feline was. Their scent was a quick giveaway, causing the reddish youth to raise a brow slightly.
“You know what, Cuckootree? Yeah, you did scare me. But only a little!” The tom admitted, awkwardly, scoffing near the end of the sentence. Junipersight rearranged his sitting position, now shuffling himself to his full height. There was no denying that the young male was lanky and tall. If it weren’t for his hindered eyesight, he would’ve made a great and noble
warrior.

The word made Minnowkit lift her head, and she excitedly got to her wobbly paws before facing her father with shining eyes, her paws tucked under her as she curled her tail around her and looked up at him.

Cuckootree realized it was sarcasm,” Sorry. I always wanted to see if I could scare a blind cat. I know it was unfair. I just couldn’t do it to an apprentice or a cat sensitive about being blind, so I picked you.” He shrugged as though it were no big deal and loudly exhailed.

Caliapaw wasn't at all sure that she was ready for this. Wheatfur had only just asked her to be his apprentice, and now she was on her own? What was she supposed to do? Of course the other medicine cats could help her, but they couldn't be here 24/7... no, she was going to be on her own. At least for part of the time. Taking a shaky breath, Caliapaw stepped into the medicine cat's den. It was cozy and warm and appeared to be quite comfortable, something she could appreciate. Now if only she was more confident with her abilities to do this, it might actually be fun. She wasn't at all sure that Wheatfur had chosen the right cat to be his successor, especially so quickly. I'll try to make you proud, Wheatfur...

Chameleonvine stepped in,” Excuse me, Caliapaw right? Uhh...before Wheatfur died, he told me to in one moon, as in today....come and check and see if the gash on my stomach has healed enough I can run, jump and well...do the actions that if it isn’t fully healed will cause it to rip. Are you able to do it perchance? I’d like to return to warrior duties.” She meowed politely.

As a voice was heard, the young medicine cat looked up from where she had been examining the various herbs. The mention of her mentor sent a flicker of grief through Caliapaw's expression, but she collected herself and looked over Chameleonvine. "Yes, it's Caliapaw. And I can definitely do that - come on in." She should be able to do this on her own, right? It couldn't be that bad. The feline swallowed, hoping she would make the right decision here. Second guessing herself was common, but she was able to make a decision pretty easily. This? Well, Caliapaw wasn't sure that that particular trait of being decisive was going to come into play here very much... if at all.

Amazed at how obnoxiously monotone and lackadaisical the male seemed, Junipersight turned in his general direction. An odd sense of feeling washed over his body, and he cocked his head to the right; as if trying to read the tom with his milky-blue eyes. “I’m honoured.” He chirped in a slightly high-pitched voice, simply reclining his head forwards to nod.
“I mean, at least it was me and not another cat. Who knows how that would have turned out.” A minuscule smirk tugged at his lips, however much the muddy-brown male tried to avoid it.

Flame jumped up then padded into the clearing.She quickly made a beeline for the nursery.

[Slyfoxgirl]

Flame grabbed Rainkit. "She hasn't opened her eyes, perfect she'll think I'm her mother." She held the kit by the scruff and ran into her den by the mountains where no one can find her.

[Slyfoxgirl]

The word made Minnowkit lift her head, and she excitedly got to her wobbly paws before facing her father with shining eyes, her paws tucked under her as she curled her tail around her and looked up at him.

An old tom made his way into the familiar den, his bones crackling every now and then in protest of his movement. He didn't move often nowadays, especially with the weather becoming colder; but such relaxation was what he deserved after moons upon moons of serving ThunderClan as the medicine cat. He took a moment to stop in the entrance, taking a deep breath of the warm, herby scent where he had spent almost all of his days. He sighed, recieving a rush of memories, some good... and others saddening. The elder sensed the prescence of two others in the den, a warrior whose scent he recognized as belonging to Chameleonvine, and the other of somebody newer to him. He still knew that her name was Caliapaw, but he had never spoken to the young feline. "Hi," He meowed, his voice soft. "I came to get some mouse bile for my ticks." The old tom refused to let anybody get at his ticks, still trying to stay somewhat independent. "I can wait until your done seeing to her though," He meowed, sitting and wrapping his tail around his paws, his blind gaze directed toward to where he supposed the other two cats to be sitting.

The she cat looked over from where she had been treating Chameleonvine and gave the other cat a half flustered, but attempting to be friendly smile. "It's fine, it's okay, she's just here for me to check a wound, I can... get that for you right away," The she cat half-babbled. Honestly she didn't know what she was doing. In her frenzied state, she didn't even recognize the former medicine cat, barely glancing at him before she padded over to get the mouse bile that he had asked for. Her whole body was partly trembling, worried that even now someone was watching her and judging her. She wasn't used to having so much anxiety show on the outside, but right now, it really was. It would be fine. When she returned with it, her eyes widened and she almost dropped her precious cargo. Somehow managing not to, she handed it over with her eyes still wide. "Anything... else I can do for you?" Having the former medicine cat in here was frightening her. Caliapaw felt like she was being judged once more. Was she not doing a good job? This was her first day as a full medicine cat, and already she was screwing things up, wasn't she? Wheatfur had chosen the wrong cat. Maybe Caliapaw should have second guessed that answer a little more. She wasn't ready for this - not now, and she never would be.

Zerosight, being well-versed in the emotions of other cats after years of being the advice giver, instantly knew by just the sound of Caliapaw's voice that she was struggling. His heart ached, being reminded of his precious apprentice who had struggled the first few days of his own apprenticeship. However, he had been there for Northpath; this poor kit had lost her mentor so early and he couldn't help but to feel sorry... and to want to give her a paw. He had never had a chance to train an apprentice, he had just given up his position to Wheatfur, only helping every now and again when the warrior had wanted advice. Maybe this was his way to make it up to the clan... He definitely wouldn't be regaining his position, but he could at least give Caliapaw somebody to lean on when she needed him. "...do you need help?" He asked softly, nudging the bundle of mouse bile soaked moss to the side for the moment. "I remember my own first day without my mentor... it was horrible, but I made it through. Maybe I can ease your worry, I've plenty of advice to give."

Was it really that obvious that she was struggling? The young cat bit her lip, unsure of whether to respond 'yes' or 'no.' Zerosight had been the medicine cat for a long time, maybe... maybe he could help her? "I would like that." But what about Chameleonvine?? Her conscience shrieked at her, and the feline folded her ears back in annoyance. She could treat and listen at the same time, right? And besides... it wasn't like she really had to do anything yet... she didn't think. Just check the scratch and see if it looked ready, right? "You don't mind if I tend to my patient at the same time, do you?" Se asked, glancing over towards the young warrior. That would have been her. She would have been training to be like Chamelonvine one day, just another member of the Clan. She hadn't mattered then, and the only reason that she mattered now was because the Clan needed their injuries treated. If she couldn't do that, then what was she doing here? I don't know if I can do this, Wheatfur... She wanted to talk to her previous mentor. She hated feeling vulnerable, and she wasn't used to it, and she didn't want to have to go out and talk to anyone, but maybe - maybe she could just listen. She didn't have to talk. All she had to do was take the advice that Zerosight was giving her, right?

Zerosight nodded. "Of course, I won't stop you from doing your job," He meowed. His blind gaze moved from Caliapaw, and to the warrior - almost as if he was actually seeing her. "What are you tending to?" He asked curiously, tilting his grey head to the side in his usual habit. The elder couldn't smell the irony scent of blood that he knew so well - maybe too well - so, he knew that it wasn't a wound. And he could tell from hear that the warrior was healthy, just by listening to them breath for a few moments. "A check-up, maybe?" Such seemingly, un-earthly abilities would probably be quite scary to those who hadn't witnessed it before, but it was also probably quite impressive. "Did Wheatfur teach you the signs of a properly healing wound?" Of course, it usually depended on the type of wound it was, but Zerosight was assuming that it was just a normal scratch and not something serious like a broken bone or something else crazy.

"Yes," The medicine cat answered, her voice concentrated as she headed back over to Chameleonvine and glanced over the she cat. "Wheatfur was supposed to do this, before..." Her voice trailed off and she cleared her throat. It wasn't easy for her to talk about her dead mentor, and she still hadn't quite grasped the fact that he was actually dead. He wasn't going to come back. There wasn't any power that would bring him back now, because once someone was dead - they were dead. The feline swallowed, shifting her weight, looking down at the ground like she couldn't bear to meet the tom's eyes. "Not fully, we were just working on herbs and he had been teaching me how to apply certain herbs to wounds... it's hard to remember." Caliapaw had a good memory. And she worked hard to keep it that way. But when she was being asked, by a cat that had done this for so long and would definitely know if she slipped up, it seemed different somehow. Caliapaw was only more convinced that she was doing something wrong. Except her voice had sounded way more confident then she felt, which she was both praising and cursing StarClan for. Why did she have to seem so confident? She wasn't! But, it was just a problem she was going to have to live with - that was all.

[Mayflower]

Owltail walked over to her mate Fernglow after getting some fresh kill. "Hi Fernglow." She said sitting down.
Mayflower
"Hello Owltail," he said in his usual rumbling voice. He rubbed his cheek against his mate's affectionately, a purr in his throat. His brown paws quickly grabbed a mouse from the pile, but his one good eye kept switching focus- mate's face, mate's stomach, mate's face, mate's stomach- as if it was a clockwork thing he did every day. Which he did, since he was a worrywart. "How are you doing? Has Caliapaw said anything bad about the kits or you?" Fernglow couldn't help himself, it was just an instinct to ask a million questions at once about their unborn kits and his mate. It was natural.

[Zero]

"Yes," The medicine cat answered, her voice concentrated as she headed back over to Chameleonvine and glanced over the she cat. "Wheatfur was supposed to do this, before..."

Zerosight shuffled his paws nervously at her first statement, feeling bad for bringing up Wheatfur without even thinking about it. Even he was feeling the loss of the other medicine cat even though they hadn't spoken very often. Clearing his throat, he tried his best to reassure her. "When I taught Northpath, I gave him the an accrymn to remember the stages of puncture wounds: BSTS," He began. "It stands for bleeding, swelling, tissue-repair, and scar formation. When it reaches the 4th stage, a warrior can return to their normal duties.Basically, if the wound is closed, and a scar is formed, then it's most likely healed up properly. Don't worry if it's slightly raised and red, new scars tend to do that. It's easy to mistake the redness for infection, but it's not. It'll flatten and lighten up in a few days." Zerosight has moved to stand a little closer as he had spoken, knowing he talked softly and it was often hard to hear him.

[Tigress]

The word made Minnowkit lift her head, and she excitedly got to her wobbly paws before facing her father with shining eyes, her paws tucked under her as she curled her tail around her and looked up at him.

Stoneheart couldn't suppress a wide grin as he thought up a story that would excite his kits but not scare them. "Once upon a time there was a brave Thunderclan cat. His name was Fireheart. You might look at him and think that he could never have been a kittypet but he was, before he joined Thunderclan. Fireheart was as kind as he was brave and he would save countless lives and help clans in need. Now, later I'll tell you each story in more depth but for now I want you to imagine what you think he looked like and what you think he would say. Got that?"
Stoneheart hoped this would help his kits imagination, growing up he never really had one, he was exposed to the cold world from an early age.

BSTS stands for bleeding, swelling, tissue repair and scar formation. Got it. Caliapaw nodded her head, this time turning to look at the former medicine cat. "Thank you," She mewed softly. It still should have been Wheatfur, teaching her all this, but she was glad for the help. Caliapaw wasn't sure how the Clan felt about losing their medicine cat, and especially with him leaving someone so young and inexperienced in charge. She was sure she could feel the stares every time she walked out of the den, which only made her want to stay in here - away from prying eyes - even more. There were few exceptions for her. "Is there anything else I should know?" She asked. Wheatfur had taught her some things about infection, and she was almost certain she could tell the difference at this point. Infections had a strange smell, sometimes pus, and they hurt. It wasn't that hard to remember, and neither was this. It was a clever acronym, the feline had to admit - it would make it easier for next time. If there even was a next time. Caliapaw hoped her patients would understand - nobody seemed to realize how difficult and stressing this job really could be.

[Mango]

As a voice was heard, the young medicine cat looked up from where she had been examining the various herbs. The mention of her mentor sent a flicker of grief through Caliapaw's expression, but she collected herself and looked over Chameleonvine. "Yes, it's Caliapaw. And I can definitely do that - come on in." She should be able to do this on her own, right? It couldn't be that bad. The feline swallowed, hoping she would make the right decision here. Second guessing herself was common, but she was able to make a decision pretty easily. This? Well, Caliapaw wasn't sure that that particular trait of being decisive was going to come into play here very much... if at all.
She smiled and headed over begining clear then mutter the last phrase,” I got a huge rake a couple months ago on my belly...that darn trespassing Dusk Syndicate tom...” she muttered before speaking up again,” It scarred I know, don’t worry I won’t be mad if you need to get Surgestorm or Shinefang because you haven’t had much training. And if your wrong...” she gave Caliapaw a gentle lick on the ear, a comforting lick,” I won’t blame you...your only training.” She smiled she truthfully wouldn’t blame Caliapaw if she was incorrect whatsoever. She’d simply tell her Keep Trying. You’ll get it right one day.

Amazed at how obnoxiously monotone and lackadaisical the male seemed, Junipersight turned in his general direction. An odd sense of feeling washed over his body, and he cocked his head to the right; as if trying to read the tom with his milky-blue eyes. “I’m honoured.” He chirped in a slightly high-pitched voice, simply reclining his head forwards to nod.
“I mean, at least it was me and not another cat. Who knows how that would have turned out.” A minuscule smirk tugged at his lips, however much the muddy-brown male tried to avoid it.
Cuckootree nodded,” Yeah. It’s morally wrong scaring a kit. Apprentices are going through alot of hormonal changes you never if it’s a good day to do it or not. Some warriors are rather jumpy. And if I did it to a blind cat at a gathering of another clan...I’m sure they’d break the truce...” he chuckled slightly at the last one.

"Snowstar," Cherrydawn began, fighting to keep her voice steady. This will work. She'll say yes. She has to say yes! "This is Skyfeather. As you can tell, he's from Windclan." The shecat twined her tail with the tom's giving him an encouraging smile. "We're in love. We've been in love since my first gathering when we were apprentices." Cherrydawn kept her gaze steady as she looked at her leader, trying to be brave. "I know I've broken the warrior code. I'll take whatever punishment you need to give me. I know that it won't be any worse than knowing that I've let my mother in Starclan down. But Skyfeather and I, we don't want to be apart anymore. He wants to join Thunderclan so we can be together. I know this is a lot for me to ask. We're at war with Windclan... but Skyfeather is a good cat! A wonderful cat." The shecat gazed lovingly at Skyfeather, cuing him to make his case to join. This will work. It has to work.
Skyfeather still felt unsteady under the leaders gaze. "Uhh..." He struggled to find the words he needed to convince Snowstar.
He took a deep breath and opened his jaws to speak. "Please Snowstar.
What she said was true, we have been in love since apprentices. I know I've broken the code alot. I'm sorry. But I swear I'm loyal. I just don't want to face Cherrydawn in battle. I don't even what to fight ThunderClan." The warrior paused for a few moments.
"Cherrydawn and I want to be in the same clan. We don't want to be separated anymore. I... I love Cherrydawn, and I wanted to join ThunderClan so she wouldn't have to leave everything behind..." Skyfeather lowered his head.
"So please, Snowstar?"

Snowstar, at this point, was stunned into silence. She'd heard of cats from different Clans falling in love with eachother (heck, she had a crush on a ShadowClan cat at one point), but to actually witness it? It left her amazed and slightly uncertain. There was no anger in her clear blue gaze as her eyes flickered over Cherrydawn and to the cat in question - Skyfeather. Now WindClan had done so many wrongs. They were nothing but rabbit-chasing murderers. Yet as the Siamese let her gaze meet the Tom's, she felt the thoughts of WindClan slip away and circle on this one cat. He looked nervous yet determined somehow. But beyond that, she could see the honesty in his eyes.

Her black tail gave a slight twitch as she ran through her options. She could decline - But then what? Cherrydawn goes to WindClan instead? What if she got attacked there? And just the thought of turning the Tom away made her chest hurt for some reason, some emotion she couldn't describe. She couldn't do that. She didn't know if Skyfeather had any tricks or plans against ThunderClan, though. Was she willing to risk it for these two cats? Stuff she had to think about, things she had to sort through, before finally she made her decision. The Siamese took a deep breath. "Skyfeather," She addressed the WindClan cat, pausing for a second to ensure she'd gotten his name right before continuing. "If I allow you to join, would you be able to remain loyal to ThunderClan? There is a war brewing, and you know this - You can't have a paw in each Clan, you can only be loyal to one. Are you willing to give up your loyalty to your birth Clan?" Snowstar's voice was surprisingly softer than even she thought it would be, but that wasn't the point. Her ice blue eyes met the Tom's nervous gaze, waiting intently for the answer that would mostly decide for her.

The ruddy-looking male couldn’t help but deny the growing smirk that stretched across his face, merely swerving his ears from side-to-side instead. A lazy huff of air escaped from his previously puffed-out chest, causing the tom to deflate of sorts. His bodice was pushed down, whilst his shoulders shrunk down closer to the earth; like they were being dragged by an exceptional pull of gravity.
“You should totally do that at the next gathering,” Junipersight airily chuckled out, his whiskers twitching as he spoke. “I would sure love hearing the shred of your pelt.”
Fake venom latched on to his voice, with a hint of sarcasm and bemusement.

The medicine cat examined the wound, it appeared to have scarred up okay... there wasn't any sign of infection, was she - was she right? BSTS. If it was scarred, then Chameleonvine should be okay to return to warrior duties. "I think you're clear to go." She made no remark to the kinder comment that Chamelonvine had given her, while Caliapaw appreciated the kind words, she didn't like feeling like she was being talked down to. And that seemed exactly like the type of comment someone would make along the lines or 'poor girl' or something equally as infuriating. If Zerosight said otherwise, the she cat would listen - she was just training. She still didn't know how to deal with major wounds. If something serious happened to a warrior, Caliapaw would be in big trouble - or, more likely, they would. All those poor cats who were counting on her...

Cherrydawn stood there, anxious as she silently listened to Skyfeather make his case to stay. Her heart warmed at the sincerity in his voice. Skyfeather meant everything he said. She'd always known that. She'd known it since the first time he said he loved her. She was scared for him now, unsure what Snowstar, but she had to believe that her leader felt the same unabashed honesty coming from him that she did.

To her relief and wonder, Snowstar seemed rather calm. She knew this couldn't be an easy thing to consider. Since the murder that had started all the ugliness between Thunderclan and Windclan, Snowstar had obviously not thought highly of their neighbor. Cherrydawn couldn't say what happened for sure, but Snowstar's apprehension made sense. Coolly, the leader fixed her blue eyes on the cat she loved and asked the question that had been on her mind since he suggested joining Thunderclan: could he really go to war with the clan that he grew up in? Could he really be loyal to Thunderclan. There was no question in the ginger and white shecat's mind that he could be loyal to her, but could he really bare his teeth and claws to the cats who had shared his home? His family? His friends? She sat perfectly still, holding her breath as she waited to see how Skyfeather would answer.

[Dovekit12]

"Hello Owltail," he said in his usual rumbling voice. He rubbed his cheek against his mate's affectionately, a purr in his throat. His brown paws quickly grabbed a mouse from the pile, but his one good eye kept switching focus- mate's face, mate's stomach, mate's face, mate's stomach- as if it was a clockwork thing he did every day. Which he did, since he was a worrywart. "How are you doing? Has Caliapaw said anything bad about the kits or you?" Fernglow couldn't help himself, it was just an instinct to ask a million questions at once about their unborn kits and his mate. It was natural.
"I'm fine and the kits are fine Fernglow, stop worrying." Owltail said in a caring voice while rubbing up against her mate. "Caliapaw says there healthy and they will be born soon.

[Bracken12]

Stoneheart couldn't suppress a wide grin as he thought up a story that would excite his kits but not scare them. "Once upon a time there was a brave Thunderclan cat. His name was Fireheart. You might look at him and think that he could never have been a kittypet but he was, before he joined Thunderclan. Fireheart was as kind as he was brave and he would save countless lives and help clans in need. Now, later I'll tell you each story in more depth but for now I want you to imagine what you think he looked like and what you think he would say. Got that?"
Stoneheart hoped this would help his kits imagination, growing up he never really had one, he was exposed to the cold world from an early age.

( Since there eyes are open can the talk yet? I'm just wondering, because it seems in the books that as soon as a kit opens their eyes they can talk)

Adderkit sat and listened to his father tell Minnowkit the story. He imagined a tom, kind of like his father, but with another color of fur. He wanted more of the sotry, and couldn't wait to hear what else his Father would add on!

[Tundra]

Skyfeather felt uncertertain that he wanted to swap clans. He looked out of the den for a few moments, deep in thought. Blazingstar will be angry. Will I be considered a traitor? Will I be a target for WindClan? The tom gave his pelt a shake. Be glanced down at his paws, then at Cherrydawn. I have to. I don’t want to keep meeting in secret.

Skyfeather met Snowstar’s gaze. “If it means being with Cherrydawn, then yes. I will remain loyal to ThunderClan.” He knew what he had just committed to. Suddenly, he felt nervous again. He shifted from paw to paw as his thoughts came crawling back. What if this is a lie? What if she’s going to keep me prisoner? What if... Skyfeather’s ears flattened as he squeezed his eyes shut. I have to convince her. The WindClan cat’s eyes shot open and his tail tip brushed the ground as he raised his head to hear Snowstar’s response.

“Pop. Bop. Boop. Bloop. Hmmm...what is another sound to make.” Okay. No. This was not amusing at all. Birchflower allowed the young kit to go out into the clearing as long as she behaved herself, and that Dawnpaw would watch her. Well, obviously Dawnpaw was around for...oh what? A couple of moments. He didn’t even bother to say goodbye to Cerisekit. It annoyed her, the small one’s fur bristling at the thought of her older half-brother being incredibly rude to her. So, now the ginger feline stayed on the sidelines of the camp to avoid being trampled over by morning warriors. She didn't know where Dawnpaw went off to, and she debated on whether she would follow him. Her paw aimlessly tapped at the ground, a grey emotion settling within her. A feline like Cerisekit needed to move around. She needed socialization. She didn't want to be alone. Making weird noises from her maw wasn't helping...at all. So, she shot up.
Initially, the kit figured she would follow the trail of her brother. Even if Dawnpaw showed obvious signs of being annoyed with her, possibly disliking her, did this matter to her? Oh, of course not. It did little to belittle her, and instead flamed her even more to bother him. The small molly got up, and started running through the clearing. Not as fast as many. She honestly looked like an adorable squirrel running with a mouth filled with acorns. She spluttered out her ‘excuse me’s and her ‘sorries’s when she bumped into another warrior. Her bushy tail danced behind her like an upbeat snake. The day of yesterday’s rain was ever present, and she felt the murkiness within the grass below her. Little droplets plopped around her, and it made Cerisekit stop and look down at her tiny paws. It was like the grass was a hidden pool. Water laid within these blades. Cerisekit, distracted for a moment, began to hop around, spluttering up more water. It wet most of her belly fur and her sides, but all she did was giggle. It was nothing wrong with getting dirty. She stomped around, prancing on four ginger paws. Suddenly, she broke put into a run, feeling the light splashes splatter around her. Once, she got to a flat rock, the small Molly jumped onto it, jumping instantly at the chilly temperature the rock held. Quickly, she shook her pelt to rid some of yesterday's rain before she hopped off. Padding around the camp, she caught no sight of her older brother. She liked to talk. Just like any other kit she liked to play. Dawnpaw was hard to play with because he acted like she was a complete nuisance to his life. Cerisekit stopped in her tracks. “...am I a nuisance?” Her ears flicked and her head tilted for a moment. Nah, of course not. She couldn't be! Cerisekit knew she was adorable and about the coolest kit in the clan. After all, she managed to make three new friends. Fireflykit, Lightningbugkit, and Ashkit. Even if they didn't claim her as a friend, she still thought of them as her friends. Cerisekit was plenty sure that she would make more friends just as easily. Lifting her head back up to smile, she sought out for a new friend. Her head turning from left to right, from right to left in Swift motions. Yet, no one was really around. Perhaps, it was too early for the other kits? Her nose twitched for a moment, and the ginger kitty lifted herself up with a heavy sigh. Cerisekit flicked her back, believing to herself that this would be the last time she awoke early just because she wanted to trail behind Dawnpaw, knowing that the nursery was filled with too much cramped spaces and dingy smells. Now, that she was out - oh, look! Suddenly, she found herself jumping back at the sight of another kit. Squinting her eyes, she cocked her head. What exactly was he doing? Her nose wiggled, and before she could think about her next move, she started following after him. Mainly to catch the butterfly. According to Cerisekit, this must be the start of a race. So, she sprinted her tiny paws as fast as she could, flashing through like a ball of fire. This was what she wanted. To play around. A bright smile appeared on her maw and as she caught up to the bigger Tom kit, the ginger feline flashed him a grin and a quick glance before she reciprocated his actions and started to Pat at the winged creature. Now, this...this was a way to make a new friend.


Jaggedkit was enjoying this little race he was having with the butterfly, but all of the sudden, his fun was interrupted by a ginger blur of fur that whizzed by him. Coming to an abrupt stop, the silver tom watched as the she-cat started patting at his butterfly. He cocked his head slightly, confused. Jaggedkit had never been the one to share, he hated sharing. He like having things to himself, whether it be attention, prey, or even certain cats. And this butterfly, that was his. This action of the she-cat was not going to just be "let go."
"Umm excuse me, but what do you think you're doing?" Jaggedkit meowed, walking closer to the smaller she-cat, feeling a small burst of pleasure at the fact that he towered over her. Jaggedkit was taller than most kits his age, except for the two very tall tom-kits he knew that were only a moon younger than him. Well, he didn't know them, he knew of them. He'd seen them around once or twice. And all that Jaggedkit knew, was that, in the future, they were going to be some competitors.
The silver tom kept his pale green gaze on the ginger feline, blinking every so slightly. Upon meeting a new cat, Jaggedkit always made sure he asserted his dominance. Well, the dominance he thinks he has over every other cat.

Starpaw trotted across the clearing to a rock, a plump mouse held in her small jaws. The white little dots across her fur had grown slightly in the last moon or so, becoming more visible and brighter. Her gaze drifted to the Medicine Den as she sat down, curling her tail up and tucking her paws underneath her, placing the mouse down. Sadness rose up in her, a lump in her throat beginning to grow; Wheatfur, a cat she had come to love and cherish like a father had perished in the recent Gathering, which she had missed. One of her best friends, Caliapaw, was now stuck with a job that she hardly knew how to carry out, having to grow up probably much more than she needed. To Starpaw, it was heartbreaking. Taking a bite out of the mouse, she flicked her starry gaze over to the large boulder in the center of the clearing where Snowstar called clan meetings, her eyes murky with many emotions. She did not enjoy the tension between ThunderClan and WindClan; she wanted it to go away, disappear and never return. The molly heaved a quiet sigh before ducking her head down to take another bite.

Caliapaw entered the clearing, her tail twitching back and forth as she did so. At the moment her mind was racing, thinking of a more efficient sorting strategy. Since Wheatfur's death, she hadn't done much - she hadn't had very many patients, Chameleonvine being just about the only one. Zerosight had stopped in to help her as well, which Caliapaw thought was nice of him. Even though technically he hadn't stopped in JUST to help her. With her thoughts racing, she barely noticed Starpaw when she passed her the first time in the clearing, muttering to herself. She had needed a bigger area to pace - that was what she was doing out here, just pacing back and forth until she looked up and saw her friend. At first she wasn't going to approach... she wasn't much in the mood for a conversation right now. But, seeing that Starpaw did appear to be alone, and knowing if she wanted to keep her friends she was going to have to start acting like a friend, Caliapaw heaved a sigh and padded over towards the she cat, a smile on her face. "Good morning, Starpaw." The medicine cat greeted her with a smile, even though she seemed distracted by the general business of the clearing. It was almost like she was only there to keep the feline company, for no other reason. "How are you this morning?" She added in an attempt to keep up the friendly act. There was no reason for anyone else to know she was still grieving about Wheatfur, even though Starpaw probably was one of the few cats she would have told - she really didn't want anyone to know. She'd pushed it aside for the moment being, for her own good and her clanmates' good, although she had no doubt that she would soon have more pressing matters to deal with.

"And a good morning to you as well, Caliapaw." Starpaw returned the greeting with a half smile, looking at the Medicine Cat with a warm gaze. Her expression was dour as usual, only brightened by the arrival of a good friend. She flicked up one of her ears, gazing at Caliapaw and studying her briefly. Sagged shoulders and a slightly sour expression told the observant molly all she needed to know about Caliapaw in that moment; slight annoyance, and a heavy amount of yearning. Likely missing Wheatfur,, Starpaw thought, swishing her tail through the dust a couple of times. Upon hearing Caliapaw's inquiry, Starpaw let out a short bark of a laugh. "Pessimistic and annoyed, as usual." She informed Calia, shifting slightly. "How about you?" Her green gaze gleamed with curiosity, awaiting her friend's response about as patiently as an apprentice could.

Purplepaw entered,” I’ll take Rattletail aight?” She approached Rattletail with moss and mousebile.I just wanna get this over. I’m not going to be rude, just do it and call in good.

Pinkpaw slunked in,” Brambleleap. Can I change your moss and deal with your ticks and fleas?” She asked nervously. I hope Brambleleap lets me do it her danty white paws pattered back and forth his tail flicking around some.

Redpaw stormed over to Boulderdust,” Get up so I can change your moss.” He demanded as if he were in charge. He didn’t really find sympathy for the elders They should just be left in the territory to die. They take up our prey and waste apprentice’s time.

The old elder stared at his paws, imagining running through the forest, chasing prey and fighting other clans. As he heard paw steps, he looked up to see an apprentice. "Good Morning Purplepaw." He greeted with a quiet meow as he remembered her name. He was lucky that he could remember her name as most elders as old as him would forget on the spot. He noticed the moss in Purplepaw's mouth, scooting over for her to place it down. He had hoped to start a conversation with someone, but kept his mouth shut for the time being. Apprentices these days don't respect their elderly! I remember when I was excited to listen to their stories.

Purplepaw smiled,” How are you doing?” She asked plesently while swapping the moss out. Let’s hope while Redpaw’s dealing with an elder he keeps his claws sheathed.

The young apprentice looked up at her brother - her older brother, that was, though that didn't necessarily bother her at all. She still loved Doepaw, and he was one of the few cats she really trusted. "Everything's... okay," Caliapaw answered, though she sounded uncertain. Was it really okay? Or was she lying because she was uncertain whether or not everything actually was going to be fine? "It's just - something kind of weird happened lately," She added a second later. Doepaw was just trying to help. He had always understood her the best out of all her siblings, and she very much appreciated his help, but - she just wasn't sure if he could help her with this. Who in the Clan would understand what it was like? Nobody. Nobody would understand. She thought with a sigh.

It didn't help that Wheatfur was now dead, leaving her the medicine cat... that was, perhaps, the worst part of this. Caliapaw didn't know what she was doing! She'd barely been trained for this! "Wheatfur - he asked me to be his apprentice, and I - I said yes, but it all happened so quickly... and now he's dead... Doepaw, I'm the medicine cat!" Her voice was quiet despite the fact that this should, at this point, be clanwide news. She didn't want anyone to know quite yet, she wasn't ready for them to look at her differently. For up until this point, Caliapaw had been an insignificant cat in the Clan. Every life counted, sure, but she had been... well... just another apprentice to be a warrior someday.

She wasn't cut out for this job! It probably should have boosted her confidence, but it was lower then before... because with Wheatfur gone, Caliapaw knew that the Clan was relying on her. And it was sending her into a state of depression. How was she supposed to heal her Clan if she barely knew what she was doing here?


[Squealing insued after I read that XD ]

The chestnut feline quirked an eyebrow, but instead of stating his objections to her obviously incorrect statement the feline kept his maw shut. He knew his sister very well, he knew that she would eventually come to the topic of distress, she just had to be patient. His bob of a tail jiggled as the molly began to speak once more, 'weird?' he thought to himself as he saw his sister think about her words. He couldn't say anything, not yet, she hadn't finished, Doepaw was the few who would actually wait for his sister to finish her thought process. Most others, annoyingly, interrupted her. Though he did this with everyone, always waited for them to finish what they were saying, waiting for them to finish thinking, waiting for them to spill it all out. He could always tell the difference between a feline thinking and a feline who has finished speaking, though it was fairly easy for him, he noticed that not everyone could, which he understood, he had noticed at a young age that he was a little more observant than others.

Though despite her quite words what the medicine cat said threw the brown feline off, he recoiled a little bit, his blue hues widened with surprise, his mouth ajar. He hadn't expected to hear that, it wasn't that he was surprised that she was chosen, oh no it was just that "CALIA! That's great news!" he exclaimed, pure joy dripped from each and every syllable, each and every vowel. Doepaw shot up and tackled his sister, nuzzling her, a huge grin spread across his maw. Oh he was so incredibly proud, so so so happy for her. He knew that his sister was more than capable for this job, she was smart, cute, witty, and sweet, what more could a big brother want from a sister? Of course he didn't know how he felt about sharing his sister with the rest of the clan but he'd let that slide for the time being. After calming down and regaining his breath the white spotted apprentice sat down with a thump and gave his sister an airy chuckle "I mean it's not great that Wheatfur's dead....but its amazing that you're the medicine cat! If you ever need help with anything herb collecting, sorting them, helping out with patience than let me know! I'm your big brother after all! And Zerosight is still here so he can help you with the herb knowledge and stuff...I guess I'll just be there for moral support and all the carrying around and stuff but oh my gosh Caliapaw this is great!" he said, taking a huge breath once he finished. He hadn't taken a breath as he sputtered all that nonsense. He couldn't explain how joyous he was, he couldn't express his joy enough, it was amazing news.

As he looked closer at his sister he noticed the distress painted across her face, his ocean colored hues flickered with worry. Doepaw scooted closer to his sister and placed a snowy paw on hers. "Hey..don't worry, you're going to be the best Medicine cat in all 5 clans Cali, and if you need help...come to me or Zero, or any of the other medicine cats! Granted I don't know anything about herbs but if you're ever nervous just bring me, I'll try my hardest to calm you down mk? What kind of big brother would I be if I couldn't ease my sister's stress?" he said, a soft smile spread across his white muzzle. He cared deeply for his sister, he knew all her quirks, she was cute, incredibly cute, he didn't plan on handing her over to any tom without a fight...or atleas he didn't, the rules of medicine cat helped him out there. He would do anything to boost her self-confidence, anything to make her happy. The chestnut tom laid his head on hers and hummed, a low, melodic hum that sounded like the morning bird calls, his favorite noise. " Caliapaw...you were chosen for a reason, just goes to show that when you put yourself out there you're capable of doing incredible things." he hummed, and he believed every last word he said.

"And a good morning to you as well, Caliapaw." Starpaw returned the greeting with a half smile, looking at the Medicine Cat with a warm gaze. Her expression was dour as usual, only brightened by the arrival of a good friend. She flicked up one of her ears, gazing at Caliapaw and studying her briefly. Sagged shoulders and a slightly sour expression told the observant molly all she needed to know about Caliapaw in that moment; slight annoyance, and a heavy amount of yearning. Likely missing Wheatfur,, Starpaw thought, swishing her tail through the dust a couple of times. Upon hearing Caliapaw's inquiry, Starpaw let out a short bark of a laugh. "Pessimistic and annoyed, as usual." She informed Calia, shifting slightly. "How about you?" Her green gaze gleamed with curiosity, awaiting her friend's response about as patiently as an apprentice could.
The only evidence of any amusement at Starpaw's comment was shown in a small smile, before Caliapaw sighed and settled down near her friend. She'd figured that socializing a little more wouldn't do her much harm, and it might help her have a better "bedside manner" so to speak. At the moment, Caliapaw's encounters with her patients were clearly lacking something, though Wheatfur hadn't exactly been the best with that type of thing either. She hadn't even thought about the day she would have her own apprentice, and it worried her to think about it as a matter of fact. "Surviving," Was the one word answer given by the medicine cat as she yawned, her green-gold eyes scanning the clearing with as much of an expert glance as one who had had less then a moon of training in this field could. She'd always been fairly observant, but her knowledge of other cats was based more off of memory and facts; if she knew a cat was prone to depression, or being overexcited, she could pick out their mood fairly well that day. And if she remembered little things about them, then she was able to guess their mood even better. It wasn't like she really did that, though... she was focused on her own work. "It's been slow today," The feline confessed with a sigh.

[lone]

Her last patient now gone, Caliapaw was muttering to herself and moving around, taking a look at the herbs that were remaining, her expression serious as she sorted through them. "We could use more chamomile... and yarrow..." Her voice trailed off as she took a mental note of everything that there was a lot of or less of. As far as she could tell, there wasn't much of a shortage of anything else - more catmint and borage couldn't have hurt, but Caliapaw was pretty sure those things would be in short order at the moment. She could only hope they wouldn't be sorely needed. Her green-gold eyes scanned the rest of the den next, examining the neatness of it. She'd been working on cleaning it up - sorting and such - and right now, everything was in perfect order. There had been no emergencies, thank StarClan, since Caliapaw doubted she would be able to deal with one at the moment.

Right now all she was good for was checking over wounds and cleaning scratches, which made her even more against the tension with WindClan. A lot of her clanmates weren't happy with it as well, but for different reasons; Caliapaw simply didn't want to struggle with figuring out how to fix the more serious wounds. She would end up losing more patients then she saved. The she cat was slightly angry with StarClan at the moment, for leaving her here alone without a mentor, and while Zerosight might be able to help her - he couldn't train her completely. The other medicine cats could help her as well, but Caliapaw really could have used Wheatfur alive right now. "I'm pretty sure the Clan wouldn't be too happy with me if I resigned or disappeared right now." The feline heaved a sigh, looking down at the ground.

She hadn't realized this was going to be that stressful. She hadn't realized that it was going to automatically make her "popular" either, otherwise she never would have agreed. All that was left now was to try and make Wheatfur proud and live up to the standards that she was pretty sure the Clan had already made for her.

I still can if you continue to act like this." Boulderdust snapped. The tom sat there and he wasn't going to move until he was polite. "I wont get up until you can be nice." meowed the elder, standing his ground.

Starpaw studied the clearing as well, but for her own purposes. She wasn't watching for injuries or emotions, but she was searching for her mother, her gaze wary for a moment before turning back to Caliapaw and smiling softly. "If there's anything I can do," She spoke sincerely, her gaze holding true admiration for her friend. "Hunting for your patients, finding herbs, keeping an eye on the patients while you're out and about, just let me know, okay?" Starpaw held Caliapaw's gaze for a moment longer before looking across the clearing again, her eyes disinterested in the comings and goings of the felines she had been around all her life. Anxiety rose up in her for a moment upon spotting her mother walk in, but thankfully Birchfur simply brushed by without even a glance. Typical. Starpaw thought, annoyance coursing through her system for a moment before settling down after Starpaw looked away. She closed her eyes briefly, savoring the sounds in the clearing and the breathing of her friend nearby. Upon hearing Caliapaw speak again, her eyes snapped open and she glanced over sympathetically. "Then maybe we could head out and find fresher herbs." She suggested, swishing her tail again. "Or take a walk through the forest." It was almost torture for Starpaw to see Caliapaw pacing the clearing day after day, waiting for patients to take her mind off the recent passing of Wheatfur. It inspired the usually shy apprentice to stand up and try to help Caliapaw in any way she could so that Caliapaw could mourn Wheatfur without the stresses and worries of the day getting in the way.

Brambleleap quickly stood up and moved out of the way. She bowed her head to Pinkpaw, saying "Go ahead. But tell your little friend to be careful with my mate." The elder shot a dirty look in Redpaw's direction, not very happy with how he was speaking to Boulderdust.

"So how's your day been?" Owltail said then sat down. She started eating the prey she had.
"It's been nice, I began teaching Kestrelpaw battling techniques. Other than that, not much has happened," the big tom said, taking a small bite out of his mouse. "What about you?" Fernglow loved taking to his family, it was always entertaining. The feline listened raptly, gave advice where he could, and overall enjoyed being a father and a mate to a beautiful she cat.

She glanced at Redpaw,” Unfortunetly, he’s without any control. He- he thinks he’s all that. I’m sure many of you elders once thought that, atleast some of you.” She paused and replaced her moss politely and quietly not in fear of the elder, as the elder’s were kinda weak.

"Go get your wounds checked Foxpaw. Go fetch some clean bedding Foxpaw. Go do this Foxpaw!" The ginger apprentice lashed her tail in anger as she limped into the medicine cat's den, her voice set in a mocking tone. She was not happy. The usually so bubbly, optimistic feline was down in the dumps, her ears pinned against her head in anger as she wandered into the den. So many things had happened lately in her life, and Foxpaw was not handling it well.

First of all, her uncle, her dear beloved uncle whom was like a father to her, had become deputy recently. And Foxpaw felt like he never had time for her anymore. Then she went into that gathering battle against the DS, getting many nasty scratches from that good-for-nothing tom Flame. And lastly, her mother had just died. Now, Foxpaw didn't have the best relationship with her mother, she had never been around much. But she still felt hurt when her mother died. But not sadness hurt. More like anger hurt. Anger that neither of her parents had ever been there for her when she needed them. Anger that her grandmother was so strict and wouldn't let her do anything fun. Anger that her mentor was never around much anymore, and she hadn't been appointed a new one. She had barely learned anything, most of what she knew was self-taught. And then there was her uncle, whose time for her was diminishing every second. Yeah, Foxpaw had reasons to be mad, upset, and angry. But with her optimistic nature, she would try to find the good in these things. She just couldn't though, her mind was too clouded up with the thoughts of all the bad that's been happening, to find the good in her situations.

Spotting Caliapaw, Foxpaw snorted at the thought of being treated by an apprentice. Probably one younger than herself too at that. She wished her great-uncle were still here. But he had gone... Somewhere... She had always enjoyed teasing him, but now he was gone. And she had to deal with Caliapaw. "I was forced in here by my grandmother to get my wounds checked. She thinks my shoulder wound is infected and wanted you to check it." Foxpaw spat, sitting on the ground and curling her tail over her paws. She might as well be here rather than wandering the camp aimlessly with nothing to do because her mentor was gone. I really need to get Passionblaze to talk to Snowstar about getting me a new one...

Redpaw twitched an eye,” I caused my first mentor to resign and go into depression I’d be careful. I may be a former kittypet. But I am stronger than most apprentices and you aswell bag ‘o fleas.”

Boulder dust let out a snort, grabbing a hold of Redpaw's tail with warrior force. He held on tightly, looking directly into the apprentice eyes. "You better watch it kit! I can overpower you anytime!" growled Boulderdust. The Tom held his ground keeping his grip on Redpaw's tail.

Boulderdust let go instantly. "I did hate them, but then I was saved by an elder. I could've been killed. I was just like you Redpaw. How about one day I take you hunting? I still have something left in me." replied Boulderdust, almost smiling.

Redpaw snorted,” Hunting is for the weak like my sister, Pinkpaw. I don’t hunt. I do real warrior stuff like patroling the borders and protecting it from Windclan. I fight not hunt.” He grumbled Besides. Even if I let the bag ‘o fleas take me out hunting by the time we reached the ravine he’d be exausted and need to go back.

Caliapaw looked over at the apprentice, an annoyed expression on her face. She did not appreciate being spoken to that way - it wasn't like Foxpaw had said anything nasty to her, but her tone was less then inviting. Caliapaw was already unsure about her job, but she thought a medicine cat deserved some respect. Nobody else could understand it; they might as well try to be pleasant. "Watch your tone." She mewed, not threateningly, but calmly - like she was giving Foxpaw a polite warning. This should be fun, the medicine cat thought sarcastically. Her tail twitching back and forth, she padded toward the other apprentice. Foxpaw was probably older then her, but the she cat got the feeling she hadn't matured quite as quickly. Caliapaw had almost been forced to grow up quicker, and while it hadn't been hard for her, she hadn't gotten as much experience with being just a carefree young apprentice.

Just three moons ago, she had been a kit in the nursery - about to have her apprentice ceremony. About a moon ago, she had become Wheatfur's apprentice. And now she was on her own. She examined the wounds on the other cat's body. "You probably should have come sooner." Caliapaw muttered, almost to herself but just in the hearing range of the other cat, her tail still twitching furiously as she glanced over them. Some of the wounds looked like they were healing okay - had Foxpaw rested more, they would probably be fully healed by now. As it was, they weren't quite scarring up right. At least they weren't still bleeding. Or swollen, but they weren't ready for Foxpaw to be going back to her training. Even if I'm wrong, some rest wouldn't hurt her. Like, at all. The she cat thought with a mental snort.

And then there was the shoulder wound. Zerosight had told her that it was easy to mistake a healing wound for an infected one, but for once, she was 100% sure that this was an infection. It had the scent of one, and while Zerosight had told her that sometimes scars would still be a reddish color, this was no scar. "Your shoulder is infected. What have you been doing?" The apprentice half-hissed, her eyes narrowing. Sometimes, she was glad she wasn't still a warrior apprentice. She could understand being driven, but what bothered her was being able to feel that something was wrong and continuing on anyways.

Didn't the apprentices understand? Caliapaw might have been younger then some of them, but sometimes it felt like she had twice the brains of them. Talking through the process of curing infections to herself, Caliapaw moved over toward the herb storage and grabbed some of the burdock root. Thankful that there was still some left, she carried it over towards Foxpaw and placed it beside her. "This might sting." She warned, her eyes flashing before she picked up some of the root, chewed it into a pulp, and gently began smearing it on the infected area.

He snorted,” I hunt a little, not much. Though.” He grunted

Boulderdust looked at him. "The vlan doesn't ask you to hunt all the time. As long as you believe in yourself you can be anything you want. Here I can help make my nest if you want." meowed Boulderdust standing up.

She glanced at Redpaw,” Unfortunetly, he’s without any control. He- he thinks he’s all that. I’m sure many of you elders once thought that, atleast some of you.” She paused and replaced her moss politely and quietly not in fear of the elder, as the elder’s were kinda weak.
Brambleleap nodded in the direction of Pinkpaw's voice. "I'll admit, I thought I was all that when I was an apprentice. Although, it's a little hard to be all that when you're blind. Ha!" The elder's laugh was a little sharp, as if she found the whole situation funny. She turned her head in the general direction of Pinkpaw's voice, hoping she was close, and said "Are you done yet? I can't exactly tell. You'll need to remind me."

Redpaw snorted,” Big of you.” He remade the nest with fresh moss,” Anything else or can I get all your fleas and ticks off myself.” He meowed

Boulderdust looked at Redpaw. "Thats it youngster." replied Boulderdust, wanting to let Redpaw have a chance to clean himslef.

[Mango]

Brambleleap nodded in the direction of Pinkpaw's voice. "I'll admit, I thought I was all that when I was an apprentice. Although, it's a little hard to be all that when you're blind. Ha!" The elder's laugh was a little sharp, as if she found the whole situation funny. She turned her head in the general direction of Pinkpaw's voice, hoping she was close, and said "Are you done yet? I can't exactly tell. You'll need to remind me."


Boulderdust looked at Redpaw. "Thats it youngster." replied Boulderdust, wanting to let Redpaw have a chance to clean himslef.
Pinkpaw smiled,” There we go. You can settle down now, sweetheart.” She meowed politely,” What was your apprenticehood like?” She asked wanting a story.

Redpaw glanced at Boulderdust,” As in my language or I’m free to leave?” He meowed rather irritably.

Skywater lay stretched out in the clearing, the cold barely getting to her. All she wanted was to look at the sky.

[wickedvirtues]

( Since there eyes are open can the talk yet? I'm just wondering, because it seems in the books that as soon as a kit opens their eyes they can talk)

Adderkit sat and listened to his father tell Minnowkit the story. He imagined a tom, kind of like his father, but with another color of fur. He wanted more of the sotry, and couldn't wait to hear what else his Father would add on!


Minnowkit sat next to Adderkit, eyes wide as she listened to her father's story. Her dark gray and white fur was fluffy, her currently blue eyes were big and shiny with excitement. She imagined a big, sturdy, flame-orange tom with green eyes off the top of her head, sorta like her father, but with a few modifications. She based him slightly off her father. Because he was a tom, and his build was mostly the same in her mind.

A gentle hum rumbled from the older tomcat as he stepped out of his den and into the spacious clearing, where he was greeted with a soothing blanket of sunlight that shone itself through the trees above him. It was a rare sight indeed, considering how close they were to the cold season these days, so he would not dare complain to see even a single ray of warmth now. Of course, Flintheart was not one to have a huge fondness for the snow, but in all honesty, what feline actually liked the season of Leafbare? It was harder to hunt with less prey around, cats were easier to be prone to sickness and disease, kittens would surely die from the harsh temperatures if not taken care of properly and there were numbed paws and frozen whiskers to go around for everyone when you go out into the hunting grounds. The tall Burmilla had experienced the cold far too many times in his life than he liked to admit, yet he still would complain about it no matter how old or used to it that he got. He shook his head, knowing that today was not the day to be thinking about such pesky things such as this, he had things to do this morning and they were very important. Flintheart would give the occasional clan member a silent nod of greeting as he passed them, heading over to the den where the apprentices of Thunderclan slept. Normally, he would let Ebonypaw sleep in and take this time to relax, which he hardly did anyways, but this morning was not the time for that. He poked his head into the den, peering through the darkness of the area, seeing several warm bodies of young cats - apprentices - who were still asleep with gentle rises and falls of their chests. “Ebonypaw, wake up.” He mewed softly, yet loud enough to get the attention of his student, “Meet me out in the clearing.” Without another word, the male turned and headed out into the center of camp once more as his long tail swished back and forth behind him. It had been nearly a quarter moon since the battle at the Gathering and Flintheart had almost recovered fully from everything, his wounds were no longer bleeding and just shone as scars on his face and sides, clearly seen because the fur did not grow back over them, unfortunately, but the mentor seemed to sport them with a certain sense of pride that he had lived through yet another violent battle. The long slash across the left side of his face was most noticeable, being the nastiest and deepest of the cuts that he had received, but Flintheart did not mind at all. He had rested and made sure to let his apprentice regain himself for a while before starting up training again. The dark grey-furred tomcat gave a slight sigh as he sat down in the bare dirt at the edge of the clearing, not even bothering to get a piece of prey or lay down. He did, however, start to groom his fur, dragging his rough tongue over the fur on his shoulder as he now silently awaited Ebonypaw after being called forth this morning.

[Random Melody]

Cherrydawn stood there, anxious as she silently listened to Skyfeather make his case to stay. Her heart warmed at the sincerity in his voice. Skyfeather meant everything he said. She'd always known that. She'd known it since the first time he said he loved her. She was scared for him now, unsure what Snowstar, but she had to believe that her leader felt the same unabashed honesty coming from him that she did.

To her relief and wonder, Snowstar seemed rather calm. She knew this couldn't be an easy thing to consider. Since the murder that had started all the ugliness between Thunderclan and Windclan, Snowstar had obviously not thought highly of their neighbor. Cherrydawn couldn't say what happened for sure, but Snowstar's apprehension made sense. Coolly, the leader fixed her blue eyes on the cat she loved and asked the question that had been on her mind since he suggested joining Thunderclan: could he really go to war with the clan that he grew up in? Could he really be loyal to Thunderclan. There was no question in the ginger and white shecat's mind that he could be loyal to her, but could he really bare his teeth and claws to the cats who had shared his home? His family? His friends? She sat perfectly still, holding her breath as she waited to see how Skyfeather would answer.

Skyfeather felt uncertertain that he wanted to swap clans. He looked out of the den for a few moments, deep in thought. Blazingstar will be angry. Will I be considered a traitor? Will I be a target for WindClan? The tom gave his pelt a shake. Be glanced down at his paws, then at Cherrydawn. I have to. I don’t want to keep meeting in secret.

Skyfeather met Snowstar’s gaze. “If it means being with Cherrydawn, then yes. I will remain loyal to ThunderClan.” He knew what he had just committed to. Suddenly, he felt nervous again. He shifted from paw to paw as his thoughts came crawling back. What if this is a lie? What if she’s going to keep me prisoner? What if... Skyfeather’s ears flattened as he squeezed his eyes shut. I have to convince her. The WindClan cat’s eyes shot open and his tail tip brushed the ground as he raised his head to hear Snowstar’s response.

Snowstar didn't take her ice blue eyes off of the WindClan cat, ears flicking as he spoke. She noticed the brief hesitation - But she expected that. Still, show me some confidence, Snowstar urged silently, her gaze never moving from the WindClan cat's. When Skyfeather opened his eyes and looked up at her again, a small smile broke through the concentrated mask on Snowstar's face. She was never good at hiding her emotions anyway. "Very well," The Siamese meowed, sitting back and turning her gaze to Cherrydawn, then to Skyfeather again. She'd give him a chance. She's never know unless she gave him a chance. And perhaps it was a big risk, but, taking risks was part of being a leader, wasn't it? "If you feel you can remain loyal to ThunderClan, Skyfeather, you may stay. I hope you don't betray the trust that's just been given to you." She sighed, sitting back and tilting her head at the Tom. He seemed like a nice cat - Snowstar wanted to give him a chance. She just really hoped he didn't blow it.

Flameleaf

Cherrydawn's heart swelled with joy. She had said yes! Her leader had said yes and now she and Skyfeather could have a life together in Thunderclan! They could be mates, have kits, and sleep beside each other in the warrior's den every night. "Oh thank you, Snowstar! Thank you!" The ginger and white shecat couldn't stop herself from nuzzling her head into the tom's neck, purring happily. But there was more to be said. Stoically, she turned back to her leader, trying to be the brave warrior she knew she could be now that Skyfeather was at her side. "I am prepared for any punishment you see fit to give me, Snowstar. After all, I did break the warrior code. Still, I'll bear it happily." She bowed her head respectfully, solemnly awaiting her leader's judgement. Cleaning out nests? extra patrols? She'd do it all. It was worth it.

Morningblue plucked out a mouthful of feathers from the wren he'd chosen from the freshkill pile. It wasn't much of a meal, but it also wasn't one he could see his clanmates being eager to get their paws on, and he wasn't about to see prey go to waste. He spotted Thrushwing not far from the nursery, no doubt having visited his mate and kits. It was so odd to think of his sister having a mate. They had always just had each other, and now here she was building a new life and family for herself. The pettiest part of him was a little sad over this, but it was the way of things, and he was fond of his nieces and nephews. He supposed he ought to spend some time getting to know their father though. The big grey tom, gave his tail a wave, beckoning the other cat to come and join him while he ate.

Thrushwing watched as his kits huddled together warmth. Leaf-bare was close, he new that. The leaves were starting to lose their beautiful colors and wilt away. Turning brown and black as holes grow bigger inside them and tear up. He looked back to see the outside, his nose twitching to take in the dying Autumn scents. Morningblue was there, waving his tail to catch his attention and call him forth. Thrushwing looked back at Jaystorm, it seemed that was going to fall asleep. Nursing kits and having to hear their cries and mews must have been tiring. Deciding to leave her alone so she could get some rest, he gave a lick between the ears of his mate and stalked out of the nursery. Thrushwing sat beside Morningblue, picking a crow from the pile. He took some of the feathers while holding the bird down with his arms, pulling out the feathers from the skin and flesh. Spitting them out, he looked at Morningblue straight in the eye. "You wanted to speak to me?"

[Barnabas]

Pinkpaw smiled,” There we go. You can settle down now, sweetheart.” She meowed politely,” What was your apprenticehood like?” She asked wanting a story.

Redpaw glanced at Boulderdust,” As in my language or I’m free to leave?” He meowed rather irritably.

Boulderdust dipped his head with a partial smile. "Your definitely free to go. Thank you."
replied Boulderdust.

[Tundra]

Skyfeather let out a loud purr of joy. He touched noses with Cherrydawn and smiled. A few moments later he turned to Snowstar and dipped his head. "Thank you, Snowstar. I greatly appreciate that you decided to give me a chance." The black and white tom flicked his tail as he continued. "I promise to remain loyal to ThunderClan no matter what. I am leaving WindClan behind. My new home is ThunderClan. In the battle I promise that I will stay on ThunderClan's side of the battle and fight against WindClan." Skyfeather lifted his head and blinked.
He looked at Cherrydawn and remembered about her punishment - if she got one. "Also, if Cherrydawn does get a punishment, am I allowed to help her?" He asked, slowly dragging his eyes away from Cherrydawn.

Morningblue gave a shallow nod. The other tom struck him as rather terse, but it didn't bother him. They didn't have to be friendly, and he was alright by Morningblue's standard so long as he treated his sister right. "How are you fairing after the gathering?" he asked simply. Wheatfur's death had been very bad news for any Thunderclan cat that had come away from the fight with major injuries. He had been lucky to fight a cat who almost seemed like he hadn't wanted to be there, but he had no idea what the battle had been like for Thrushwing.

Thrushwing tensed at the thought of the gathering. It was supposed to be a gathering for peace between the clans, but it was instead a battle. He expected something would go wrong there anyway, but nothing like the Dusk Syndicate to just appear like that. Actually, he didn't expect anything to do with the Dusk Syndicate. "My injuries had been healed during the battle, so there wasn't too much to to bring to Caliapaw." He answered, remembering the now dead Wheatfur tending to him before he passed. He never knew that his death would be near, he was a medicine cat, not a warrior that would jump into a battle and expect that their life may end. Thrushwing assumed that one of the Syndicate cats caught Wheatfur while he was distracted and killed him. "Though, I do wonder what will happen to the Dusk Syndicate. Do you think their leader is planning another attack on the clans?" Thrushwing asked, before plucking out more of the feathers.

"It's been nice, I began teaching Kestrelpaw battling techniques. Other than that, not much has happened," the big tom said, taking a small bite out of his mouse. "What about you?" Fernglow loved taking to his family, it was always entertaining. The feline listened raptly, gave advice where he could, and overall enjoyed being a father and a mate to a beautiful she cat.
"I'v been just sitting in the nursery with the other queens. I haven't done much." Owltail said while purring. "When do you think Kestelpaw will be done with his training."

[Jay's Wing]

The young kit, Frost Kit yawned in the sun light. She rolled over and over again and again .She was just a moon away from being an apprentice! But she was still kit, stuck in camp. She looked at the camp wall, having a look that could tell a cat she was up to something.

Morningblue shook his head. "It's hard to say what they'll do. They were ordered to disband, but who knows what the actual cats might be up to. I took my apprentice Lynxpaw for a tour of the territory and it occurred to me that they could be about anywhere." It was a nerve-wracking thought. Morningblue had always been able to feel safe in Thunderclan territory, but only Starclan knew how long that could go on with such dangerous cats lurking in the shadows. At least the Syndicate had had a central location. "But then, Thunderclan has another urgent matter to worry about. The grey tom turned his muzzle in the direction of the Windclan border, whisker's twitching. There was a war coming between Thunderclan and Windclan.

Thrushwing had believed that the Dusk Syndicate had finally come to an end. It was five mostly StarClan believing clans against one, they didn't stand a chance anyway, unless by some miracle. But that 'miracle' didn't happen for the evil organization. He listened to Morningblue, giving a small meow of agreeing. Who knows of what they're planning or doing. Simply because of what happened and the Dusk Syndicate's embarrassment, Thrushwing knew that they were stubborn to accept of what was obvious. They lost, they needed to leave, if not; they'd soon be wiped out completely by Grousestar if Thrushwing had to guess. Looking at Morningblue as if he was confused of what Morningblue was talking about, he wondered what was he talking about. It took Thrushwing a moment to remember of WindClan. "Yes, WindClan is also a bigger problem." He replied, knowing that the Dusk Syndicate territory was next to SkyClan. If the Dusk Syndicate had not disbanded and stayed in their territory, ThunderClan would be safe and they would have to get pass SkyClan first if they wanted to have their revenge against ThunderClan. "I've been wondering this, who's at fault now that we're indefinitely going to war with WindClan?" Only after the battle while Snowstar was taking her clan back to their territory, had it struck him that this was pretty much Snowstar's fault for not only pushing Blazingstar but her own self to war.

Morningblue turned toward the other tom, a look of quiet concern on his face. "Fault? What does fault matter? We are at war and there will be a battle, and we will fight for Thunderclan when we do." Morningblue was not the type of cat to painstakingly analyze a situation. He didn't dwell on his mistakes. He didn't see the point of it. He was a dutiful warrior of Thunderclan and if his leader sent him to battle, then to battle he would go.

(he's a bit of a stoic soldier type.)

Thrushwing looked at him with surprise. He had not expected such a response, especially from him. Thrushwing did not think of it that way, it doesn't matter? Although, he didn't need to think of it that way. "And you're not going to question? Innocent cats will die." He said firmly, not being affected any longer by Morningblue's behavior. "Innocent cats with their hopes, dreams, families, now being ripped away from them simply because two leaders don't like each other anymore and decide to take their clanmates and have them fight each other to the death." He murmured, looking down at the ground. He saw the bird he picked out spread out limp beneath him, but instead of taking a bite, he pushed back into the pile with one of his paws. He didn't feel like eating anymore, the thought of jumping into another battle because an ignorant leader said so had made his stomach reject.

{lol, I get that.}

[lone]

[Squealing insued after I read that XD ]

The chestnut feline quirked an eyebrow, but instead of stating his objections to her obviously incorrect statement the feline kept his maw shut. He knew his sister very well, he knew that she would eventually come to the topic of distress, she just had to be patient. His bob of a tail jiggled as the molly began to speak once more, 'weird?' he thought to himself as he saw his sister think about her words. He couldn't say anything, not yet, she hadn't finished, Doepaw was the few who would actually wait for his sister to finish her thought process. Most others, annoyingly, interrupted her. Though he did this with everyone, always waited for them to finish what they were saying, waiting for them to finish thinking, waiting for them to spill it all out. He could always tell the difference between a feline thinking and a feline who has finished speaking, though it was fairly easy for him, he noticed that not everyone could, which he understood, he had noticed at a young age that he was a little more observant than others.

Though despite her quite words what the medicine cat said threw the brown feline off, he recoiled a little bit, his blue hues widened with surprise, his mouth ajar. He hadn't expected to hear that, it wasn't that he was surprised that she was chosen, oh no it was just that "CALIA! That's great news!" he exclaimed, pure joy dripped from each and every syllable, each and every vowel. Doepaw shot up and tackled his sister, nuzzling her, a huge grin spread across his maw. Oh he was so incredibly proud, so so so happy for her. He knew that his sister was more than capable for this job, she was smart, cute, witty, and sweet, what more could a big brother want from a sister? Of course he didn't know how he felt about sharing his sister with the rest of the clan but he'd let that slide for the time being. After calming down and regaining his breath the white spotted apprentice sat down with a thump and gave his sister an airy chuckle "I mean it's not great that Wheatfur's dead....but its amazing that you're the medicine cat! If you ever need help with anything herb collecting, sorting them, helping out with patience than let me know! I'm your big brother after all! And Zerosight is still here so he can help you with the herb knowledge and stuff...I guess I'll just be there for moral support and all the carrying around and stuff but oh my gosh Caliapaw this is great!" he said, taking a huge breath once he finished. He hadn't taken a breath as he sputtered all that nonsense. He couldn't explain how joyous he was, he couldn't express his joy enough, it was amazing news.

As he looked closer at his sister he noticed the distress painted across her face, his ocean colored hues flickered with worry. Doepaw scooted closer to his sister and placed a snowy paw on hers. "Hey..don't worry, you're going to be the best Medicine cat in all 5 clans Cali, and if you need help...come to me or Zero, or any of the other medicine cats! Granted I don't know anything about herbs but if you're ever nervous just bring me, I'll try my hardest to calm you down mk? What kind of big brother would I be if I couldn't ease my sister's stress?" he said, a soft smile spread across his white muzzle. He cared deeply for his sister, he knew all her quirks, she was cute, incredibly cute, he didn't plan on handing her over to any tom without a fight...or atleas he didn't, the rules of medicine cat helped him out there. He would do anything to boost her self-confidence, anything to make her happy. The chestnut tom laid his head on hers and hummed, a low, melodic hum that sounded like the morning bird calls, his favorite noise. " Caliapaw...you were chosen for a reason, just goes to show that when you put yourself out there you're capable of doing incredible things." he hummed, and he believed every last word he said.

The excitement from Doepaw seemed to spread over to Caliapaw a little bit, because somehow - she just wasn't very excited about her new job. Not if it meant that Wheatfur was dead, and she hadn't been prepared for it - it was like taking your assessment, all excited to be a warrior, and becoming one as soon as your mentor died. That was how it felt to her. All the excitement would be destroyed by the pain of losing someone so close to you, and Caliapaw was no exception to this. She'd be lying if she said she wasn't thrilled when Wheatfur had chosen her, along with nervous, but she would also be lying if she said that she wasn't now terrified to think of having to help the Clan on her own. They were counting on her, she was pretty much the only way that they could be healed... oh StarClan, what if Caliapaw screwed up? "Thanks, Doepaw."She mewed gratefully after he had tackled her. It made her feel more like she didn't have a care in the world now.

Honestly? Caliapaw wished she didn't have a care in the world. She wished she could go back to being just another apprentice, doing nothing at all. Except she would never be that apprentice again, and to be honest, maybe it really wasn't her thing. Wheatfur had chosen her. He had seen something in her. She might as well do her best to see the same, and try to get whatever she needed to do done. The feline smiled, her fangs gleaming in the sunlight at her brother's words. He was probably more excited about this then she was! And she supposed he had reason to be. It wasn't every day that your sister became a medicine cat, after all. "I'd appreciate the help, maybe... whenever you're not busy with your training. I wouldn't want my big brother to have to wait on his warrior ceremony." She smiled at him, her ears slowly tilting foward in more of an example of pleasure.

She was truly feeling a lot better, thanks to him... it was so nice to have such a good brother. This support was just what Caliapaw had been missing, and she was grateful for it. She was hoping she would never see Doepaw in the medicine cat den, however. The thought of her brother's life being in danger, or him even being hurt, was extremely painful for her. Her ears went back a little at his next words, though. She understood he was trying to help, really, but the best medicine cat? Caliapaw sincerely doubted that. She was pretty sure she wouldn't even live up to the legacy Zerosight and Wheatfur had left behind, let alone be the best out of all the Clans. The medicine cat in WindClan had been there for as long as she could remember! Probably as long as her father could remember, and maybe even her grandfather - that was the medicine cat's guess. If he had been around that long, he was probably the best medicine cat ever. Caliapaw had already had a case today, with Chameleonvine, and she hadn't liked it very much.

The other cat had been trying to help - she knew - but being coddled by someone she didn't know very well was not appreciated at all. It was... uncomfortable, almost. Yet she had done her best to be polite, and had been pretty nice, she thought... better then she would have been before. At least it hadn't been anything serious... Caliapaw didn't have much of a tolerance for whiny cats, and cats who were badly injured tended to whine a lot. While she could understand they were in pain, they might as well be pleasant to the cat who was helping them, shouldn't they? "I don't know, Doepaw. Right now I don't even feel like I'm supposed to be the medicine cat of this Clan, and I really don't think I'll ever be the best in all the Clans." She sighed, laying down and placing her head on her paws.

When she was younger, she used to do this when she was upset. Upset at someone in particular, usually, it was an 'I'm not listening' type of thing. Quite immature - which was surprising, considering Caliapaw had never been "normal" in terms of just playing around, or even her vocabulary, but that was one of the few things she had done. She sat back up a second later, however, not wanting anyone to see that she was moping around. Doepaw? Fine, but no one else. To be honest... he was one of the cats she truly loved in her life. Outside of her family, there might be a select few - but with all the friends other apprentices had, and seemed to love, Caliapaw's own list of cats she could claim to love was quite short. "I really appreciate that," She mewed, and she meant it. If no one else did, she knew that her brother had her back. That he supported her as the medicine cat. And that was the only opinion that mattered to her now.

Starpaw studied the clearing as well, but for her own purposes. She wasn't watching for injuries or emotions, but she was searching for her mother, her gaze wary for a moment before turning back to Caliapaw and smiling softly. "If there's anything I can do," She spoke sincerely, her gaze holding true admiration for her friend. "Hunting for your patients, finding herbs, keeping an eye on the patients while you're out and about, just let me know, okay?" Starpaw held Caliapaw's gaze for a moment longer before looking across the clearing again, her eyes disinterested in the comings and goings of the felines she had been around all her life. Anxiety rose up in her for a moment upon spotting her mother walk in, but thankfully Birchfur simply brushed by without even a glance. Typical. Starpaw thought, annoyance coursing through her system for a moment before settling down after Starpaw looked away. She closed her eyes briefly, savoring the sounds in the clearing and the breathing of her friend nearby. Upon hearing Caliapaw speak again, her eyes snapped open and she glanced over sympathetically. "Then maybe we could head out and find fresher herbs." She suggested, swishing her tail again. "Or take a walk through the forest." It was almost torture for Starpaw to see Caliapaw pacing the clearing day after day, waiting for patients to take her mind off the recent passing of Wheatfur. It inspired the usually shy apprentice to stand up and try to help Caliapaw in any way she could so that Caliapaw could mourn Wheatfur without the stresses and worries of the day getting in the way.
"You really don't have to do any of that." The she cat mewed with a sigh. It was sweet of her to offer, but honestly, unless she was some sort of super-persuasive speaker or something, Starpaw couldn't give Caliapaw anything that she wanted. Caliapaw was pretty sure the majority of the Clan was angry with her for taking Wheatfur's place. Even though she hadn't had anything to do with his death, they were probably still angry. The feline winced at this thought, her tail twitching back and forth in thought. She would have preferred to be pacing back and forth still at this point, to be honest. A walk through the forest, however, didn't sound so bad. Caliapaw hadn't been out in the territory in... well... what felt like ages, but most likely hadn't been that long.

The last time she could remember had been the day she had met Wheatfur. Since then she had worked, and when he had died, she'd remained holed up in the medicine cat's den, unwilling to speak to anyone for several days before she resumed her normal life. And while it was difficult for her, Caliapaw had always been good at hiding her feelings when she wanted to. From the outside, unless you knew her, she always looked like this. Like she was concentrating on something. "Finding fresher herbs wouldn't be a bad idea. We need more yarrow and chamomile." The she cat sighed, getting up to pace back and forth in front of Starpaw once more. This was something that helped with her thinking process. The more she was trying to think, or the more aggravated she was, the quicker her steps were.

"I think that was everything. Hope nothing goes wrong while I'm gone. Come on," She mewed with a flick of her tail, motioning toward the territory. For the first time in a while, Caliapaw was actually okay on her own. And she wasn't really on her own, she had Starpaw - but this was the first time she'd really been okay since Wheatfur. Excited for something, anyways. Her paws shifted on the ground like an anxious kit's, an almost-smile pricking at the corners of her maw as she waited for Starpaw's answer. The territory had always been a safe place for her. Maybe it would protect her from her own grief now.

(Can I have one of my charries come visit the kits?)
The small she-kit stretched up to the scent of her mother, a loud purr erupting from her.
Rosefern glanced at the small kit Huh a young kits visiting huh...I’d guess about one moon old.Maybe not even a moon. But definetly older than my two day old kits. She smiled at the kit,” Hello. What’s your name?” She asked

[SolarWarrior]

Based on her body language he could tell she was greeting him Oh well don't know her name.he smiled,"Do you WA pla- mousy worrier?" He asked (do you want to play mouse and warrior)


Firekit looked a bit confused. She remembered her sister explaining a game to her but she said no. Maybe that was the game he was talking about. Either way she was about to find out. She nodded in agreement.

[Amberpelt]

Amberpelt stepped out of the warrior's den thinking what to do about her friend Ashclaw. He met a she-cat named Featherwing, she was from RiverClan, a beautiful one too! Ashclaw was slowly falling in love with her, but she was not going to let that happen!

He smiled,” I ca’ be moose you can be worrior.”(I can be the mouse you can be the warrior) He awaited her body language I hope she knows how to play as I won’t know if she can or not. He realized she was confused and then explained the game quickly,” One caught is the moose the other a worrier. The worrier hoonts the moose by pouncing on them while the moose tries to escape.” He meowed (One cat is the mouse the other a warrior. The warrior hunts the mouse by pouncing on them while the mouse tries to escape)

[FONT="Arial"][COLOR="Silver"]"You really don't have to do any of that."
Starpaw's reply was only a smile, comforting and genuine. Her emerald gaze was focused on Caliapaw's yellow eyes, filled with a little concern and quite a bit of pure admiration and sisterly love for her friend. Starpaw's tail flicked around her paws, and curled up neatly around them with the tip twitching back and forth in small, nervously excited little movements. A small breeze blew by, mixing her tufts of white fur with her mainly black pelt, creating patches of grey and covering up other of her vitilligo-induced spots. "But you see, Caliapaw." Starpaw spoke, having thought over her words for quite a bit. "I do. It isn't just for your benefit, Cal. It's for my own as well." Her gaze flicked over to the entrance, thoughtful and quiet before she continued. "To me, it's obvious that you're hiding so much pain and emotion. You've kept yourself cooped up in the camp without speaking a word to anyone besides your friends and your patients. You haven't let anyone know how you feel about Wheatfur's passing, closing yourself off... and it's painful for me, as your friend and as your Clanmate." Starpaw finished her small speech, looking back at Caliapaw and smiling once more. "If you throw yourself into your work like this, then all I can do to help is bring you and your patients the herbs and prey you need." She nodded decisively, satisfied with her declaration and speech. She stood up, turning to Caliapaw with a smile right before Caliapaw spoke up again.

"Finding fresher herbs wouldn't be a bad idea. We need more yarrow and chamomile."

"Wonderful!" Starpaw leaped to her paws. Her mind was buzzing with excitement and cheerfulness, glad to get out of the camp with a good friend and be able to learn which herbs were which so she could help Caliapaw collect them without being a burden. Part of her still yearned to be a medicine cat, but she did enjoy the freedom that came with learning to be a Warrior. Since Roarclaw hadn't began training her yet, she had much more time to work with Caliapaw and relieve some of the stress from the young apprentice. Starpaw couldn't be happier with the current arrangement.

"I think that was everything. Hope nothing goes wrong while I'm gone. Come on,"

Starpaw nodded, waiting for Caliapaw to lead the way out of the clearing and to wherever she would go to get the herbs they needed.

She nodded an ok and decided to let him run of before she gave the chase. This is how others play I guess. I haven't played with others much. They must think I'm weird. But here I am with a deaf kit and I don't find him weird! Maybe I'm just putting hate on myself. She shook off the thought and focused on the game.

He began to run to escape her She’s just like every kit. Just doesn’t know how to play the game. Atleast she isn’t insulting me. Some cats think they can insult me to my face without me noticing.

Firekit ran after him. This is actually quite fun! How come I've never done this before? She thought to herself and tried speeding up a bit.

Firekit started getting a bit tired but kept on running, determined to at least catch up to him. She managed to catch up to him but wasn't sure how to "catch" him. Pounce? Stand in front of him? Ugh I don't know! She thought to herself and kept on running trying to match his speed.

He grew tired and slowed down some, he wasn’t jogging, but he wasn’t going as fast anymore. I am not losing to this kit... (LOL he doesn’t know her name)

Firekit noticed he was slowing down and decided to slow down as well since he wasn't running as fast anymore. Hmm..Maybe I should just touch him? She thought to herself and tried to run beside him so she could touch him with her tail.

He ran at his slow speed and muttered,” Whe’ she ponce me?” (When will she pounce on me) due to it echoing off a rock it sounded much louder.

Ohh! Pounce! She said to herself and got ready to pounce. Her waiting position seemed quite odd. She hadn't practiced like other apprentices since she had never played with them. She pounced up and tried to softly grab on to Minkkit but by the way she pounced that was probably a very low chance.

(Maybe she can like motion her name out? Like if she introduces her sister she would motion to the sun and back to her sister? Idk how she'd do Fire though XD)

Minkkit had just retreated to jogging when she pounced so the young she-kit actually had a chance of touching him. Due to being deaf I couldn’t hear if she is approaching. But her scent is stronger here....

Firekit managed to touch Minkkit's tail before falling. I should really focus on what my sister does. She thought to herself and got up looking just fine it was just a small fall.

[Charmer]

Thrushwing looked at him with surprise. He had not expected such a response, especially from him. Thrushwing did not think of it that way, it doesn't matter? Although, he didn't need to think of it that way. "And you're not going to question? Innocent cats will die." He said firmly, not being affected any longer by Morningblue's behavior. "Innocent cats with their hopes, dreams, families, now being ripped away from them simply because two leaders don't like each other anymore and decide to take their clanmates and have them fight each other to the death." He murmured, looking down at the ground. He saw the bird he picked out spread out limp beneath him, but instead of taking a bite, he pushed back into the pile with one of his paws. He didn't feel like eating anymore, the thought of jumping into another battle because an ignorant leader said so had made his stomach reject.

{lol, I get that.}

Morningblue took a bite of the wren and chewed it slowly, letting the silence rest between himself and Thrushwing. He swallowed and turned his head, meeting the other tom's eyes with a cold and steady gaze. "Is thinking like that going to stop you from defending your mate? Your kits? Will agonizing over the lives of other cats help you sleep better at night or be a better father? Here's the reality, Thrushwing, war is on whether or not you like it or think it's right, and so long as Windclan is threatening Thunderclan, they are threatening your family. They are threatening my family. I don't care why. I care about making sure they remember what happens when they threaten my clan and my family the next time they consider it." Morningblue's tail gave a twitch, quietly watching the other tom. While his sentimental side was touching, and he could see why his sister appreciated it, Thrushwing would have to learn that the world didn't suddenly turn fair for the sake of his feelings and morals.

Thrushwing was about to emit a growl of protest, but quickly stopped himself. Morningblue was right, a battle is coming, cats will die and there was nothing he or anyone could do or say. They were warriors, protecting their clan is what they live for and vowed in StarClan's name to do. And WindClan will do the very same for their own clan. His mate, his kits... He had to protect them, even if it meant certain death for himself. It felt as if what Thrushwing had said earlier was becoming silly to him now. Of course cats will die, they were prepared for this. From the very moment a leader asks an apprentice if they will keep the warrior code and defend their clan even unto the cost of their life, they knew what they were accepting. Unsheathing his claws and digging them into the ground, he clawed pointlessly at the dirt. Thrushwing must prepare for battle, and his apprentice Racoonpaw. WindClan is lean and fast, but ThunderClan has the strength. "WindClan will not win." Thrushwing meowed, wrapping his tail over his paws. "Hey. When that battle starts, don't die. If you do, I will go up there and re-kill you myself for making my mate upset." He growled, staring coldly back at Morningblue.

Morningblue's whisker's gave a twitch, pleased that Thrushwing was seeing reason. In his heart of hearts, Morningblue enjoyed the heat of battle. He always had. But things were different now. He had his sister's kits to think about. It wasn't about the thrill anymore. It was about duty and the good of his clan. Keeping his voice level, he gave a nod and replied, "Fair enough. Just make sure you can promise the same thing. I probably should have warned you about this before, but there's two things you should never do: break Jaystorm's heart and let me get my claws on you if you do."

At least ThunderClan wouldn't have to worry about ShadowClan, as far as he knew, ShadowClan didn't even know what ThunderClan had done. "See you at the end of the battle." Thrushwing mewed, before padding away to look for Racoonpaw.

[RedHead]

Caliapaw looked over at the apprentice, an annoyed expression on her face. She did not appreciate being spoken to that way - it wasn't like Foxpaw had said anything nasty to her, but her tone was less then inviting. Caliapaw was already unsure about her job, but she thought a medicine cat deserved some respect. Nobody else could understand it; they might as well try to be pleasant. "Watch your tone." She mewed, not threateningly, but calmly - like she was giving Foxpaw a polite warning. This should be fun, the medicine cat thought sarcastically. Her tail twitching back and forth, she padded toward the other apprentice. Foxpaw was probably older then her, but the she cat got the feeling she hadn't matured quite as quickly. Caliapaw had almost been forced to grow up quicker, and while it hadn't been hard for her, she hadn't gotten as much experience with being just a carefree young apprentice.

Just three moons ago, she had been a kit in the nursery - about to have her apprentice ceremony. About a moon ago, she had become Wheatfur's apprentice. And now she was on her own. She examined the wounds on the other cat's body. "You probably should have come sooner." Caliapaw muttered, almost to herself but just in the hearing range of the other cat, her tail still twitching furiously as she glanced over them. Some of the wounds looked like they were healing okay - had Foxpaw rested more, they would probably be fully healed by now. As it was, they weren't quite scarring up right. At least they weren't still bleeding. Or swollen, but they weren't ready for Foxpaw to be going back to her training. Even if I'm wrong, some rest wouldn't hurt her. Like, at all. The she cat thought with a mental snort.

And then there was the shoulder wound. Zerosight had told her that it was easy to mistake a healing wound for an infected one, but for once, she was 100% sure that this was an infection. It had the scent of one, and while Zerosight had told her that sometimes scars would still be a reddish color, this was no scar. "Your shoulder is infected. What have you been doing?" The apprentice half-hissed, her eyes narrowing. Sometimes, she was glad she wasn't still a warrior apprentice. She could understand being driven, but what bothered her was being able to feel that something was wrong and continuing on anyways.

Didn't the apprentices understand? Caliapaw might have been younger then some of them, but sometimes it felt like she had twice the brains of them. Talking through the process of curing infections to herself, Caliapaw moved over toward the herb storage and grabbed some of the burdock root. Thankful that there was still some left, she carried it over towards Foxpaw and placed it beside her. "This might sting." She warned, her eyes flashing before she picked up some of the root, chewed it into a pulp, and gently began smearing it on the infected area.


The ginger feline wanted to bite back at the medicine cat's words. But she held her tongue. She knew that what she said could be used against her when it came time for her grandmother to talk about her behavior. And Foxpaw hated when Springingsky tried to give her proper behavior etiquette. In that moment, Foxpaw realized she was being rude for no reason. Caliapaw had done nothing wrong, why was she snapping at her? It's Springinsky who deserves my bad attitude. "Sorry. I'm just kinda upset with someone." Foxpaw mumbled, hoping her explanation was enough for the other she-cat.

As Caliapaw spoke once more, Foxpaw let her own eyes rake across her ginger pelt. She didn't see anything too terrible about the scratches, they were just scratches after all. All warriors had them, right? "I was patched up after the battle, but very quickly. I guess then I just forgot that I should have them thoroughly looked over." Foxpaw kept her tone even, careful not to allow herself to snap at Caliapaw again. Even in her angered state, the apprentice hated talking to cats in a tone that they did nothing to deserve. She liked being fair. "I honestly don't think I'd get anywhere if I lived in my own, my brain is too full of other things." She joked, swishing her bushy tail in amusement at her own little joke. Of course, at this stage in her life, it was natural for her to go from being rude and stand-offish the playful and kit-like.

"What have I been doing?" Foxpaw repeated her question, looking at her shoulder wound with curiosity. She had thought something was wrong with it, but never really acknowledged the fact that it could be pretty bad. "Uhh, well trying to train myself for one. My mentor isn't around much anymore." She looked up from her wound to Caliapaw, watching as the other young cat went to get something. When she came back with a weird, root looking thing, Foxpaw's ears twitched. Her orange eyes studied every detail of the plant, taking it in bit by bit. As Caliapaw began to chew up the root, Foxpaw couldn't help but grimace. She would never want a plant to be in her mouth, that was just disgusting! Foxpaw barley registered Caliapaw's statement before a quick flare of pain entered her shoulder. The apprentice winced, but stayed as still as she could, digging her claws into the ground below. "Does every herb make your wounds hurt? What's the point of them then? I thought they were supposed to make you feel better!?" Her voice was not accusing, but more upset, like she was disappointed with the plants used to heal.

[Tigress]

Minnowkit sat next to Adderkit, eyes wide as she listened to her father's story. Her dark gray and white fur was fluffy, her currently blue eyes were big and shiny with excitement. She imagined a big, sturdy, flame-orange tom with green eyes off the top of her head, sorta like her father, but with a few modifications. She based him slightly off her father. Because he was a tom, and his build was mostly the same in her mind.

Stoneheart smiled at his kits and started to speak. "Now, can you tell me in your own words what you think Fireheart looks like?" He asked, looking over at Crowsong lovingly.

(Sorry it's so late!)

Minnowkit opened her jaws. "Big..and strong..and he has red fur." She mewed, hesitating slightly, but proud of her answer as she flicked her tail, gazing up at her father for conformation.

He paused,” My dear. Have you been sleeping with any toms. As kits could always. Be a posiblity.” He meowed If it is kits. Their is no way I am the father...or is that possibe? he had a lot of shock about him being a father possibly.

Hollykit with her black fur stretched and padded into the clering. She was smiling and clearly happy. She saw a kit she half-knew,” BREEZEKIT!” She squeaked. She was only two moons old.

[Fuzzy]

She purred,” Owlkit aren’t you a pretty she-kit...and Emeraldkit is a pretty kit too...” she smiled


Emeraldkit let out a tiny squeak of happiness as she cuddled closer to her mother. Her pretty white fur blind in nicely with Owlkit's silver and white fur. The purr rumbling from her wasn't the strongest but that was just because of her young age.

I'll go over to mother, yeah, that's what I'll do.

"Ha! I'd like to see you try!" The fluffy tom boasted, his brown pelt fluffing out a little more as he half-smiled, half-smirked. To him, Mintberry finding the cat that he couldn't charm would be amazing. True, if she picked someone he held a lot of respect for, it would probably be harder, but... still... Ottertail could try! He held respect for a few she cats... well, he held a little bit for all of them. To him, a she cat was a force to be reckoned with when they were angered. And they were powerful, just as much as toms were - in some areas. Sometimes more, sometimes less, it really just depended on the she cat. "The elders! How rude!" The tom scoffed playfully, raising his paw to swat her just as she rolled away. It was almost perfect timing - for one of them. Ottertail's ears went back in frustration at his miss, but it was quickly forgotten in the spirit of the teasing. "Hmph. Why don't you go charm them? Like you said - they'll appreciate it, yougin'," The tom laughed, aiming another swat at her as he did so. When the timing was right, chances were that he would flop on top of her once more. Their friendly relationship was perfect just the way it was - and Ottertail never wanted things to change. Like, ever.
Mintberry gasped dramatically before her paw reached out towards the large tom, swatting his ears a few times. "Hate to break it to you, but I'm not into cougars," she teased, her pale green hues narrowing at him, almost challenging him to say something else. "But you're into everyone, so it makes it okay for you to go flirt with them," she replied, trying to defend herself. The black and white she-cat huffed, before drawing her paw back under her. From there, she simply stuck her tongue out at the tom before rolling onto her back and curling her paws up over her. This was probably her favorite position to lay in. It defeated the stereotypical way at least. Besides, her clan mates found it humorous sometimes and she liked knowing she can make them purr or laugh a little. Everyone needed someone to brighten their day sometimes. He green hues didn't waver from the tom as she did so, even though at this point, she was staring at him upside down.

Ottertail jerked his head back, out of his friend's reach (after she had already hit him a few times) his eyes gleaming mischieviously as he did so, almost daring her to try and hit him again. Technically, she had just taught him a lesson; be out of reach if he was going to tease her like that. "I am not!" Ottertail protested, although he was laughing while doing so, defeating the purpose of trying to look hurt. Besides, how could he really be hurt when it was so funny? As she rolled over, the tom saw his chance - and quickly half scooted, half shuffled over towards her, his eyes sparkling and narrowed in concentration before he lifted a paw (daintily, almost) and placed it on her stomach. "I win." The tom mrrowed, this time with a small wriggle like he was too excited. He was, of course, referring to the games cats would play as young kits or apprentices - in his case, even warriors - when whoever was pinned first and kept there lost, and the victor would naturally announce his win. Like the other cat wasn't already aware of it.

Mintberry panicked for a moment, thinking the larger tome was about to squish her again before his paw simply rested on her soft stomach fluff. Her pale hues narrowed again and her voice sounded amused as she spoke. "You're asking to be bit" she replied. Her jaws opened and shut twice, allowing that teeth on teeth clacking noise to leave her mouth. Her whiskers were twitching in the process, but she twisted her body awkwardly to gently gasp his leg in her jaws. From there, she simply allowed a soft growling noise leave her half opened mouth. "mennefff!" The noise escaped her vocal cords before she released his leg and rolled away from him, onto her side. Her tongue was sticking out enough to allow her paw pad to run across it while she made a spitting noise. "Fluff-butt, your fur is stuck in my mouth!" she exclaimed, spitting once more before turning her head up and around to look at him over her shoulder, a playful expression written on her face. "You've too much fur, sir!" the black and white she-cat spoke again before turning her head away again and staring at the ground where the smallest clump of moist fur rested.

Morningblue watched his sister's mate walk away and finished up the last swallow of the wren he had been eating during the conversation. He stood up, licking the last few scraps from his muzzle as he looked around for a cat he'd been meaning to talk with since shortly after the disastrous gathering. As luck would have it, he spotted the ginger pelt of the Thunderclan deputy. Taking off across he clearing at a trot he called the tom's name, "Passionblaze!" the blue meowed in a voice that was even and cool. "Do you have a second? I was hoping to talk to you about some thoughts I have." The blue tom lowered his voice just a bit, "about the upcoming battle with Windclan." The tom knew that anxiety about the battle to come had most of Thunderclan on edge. He didn't wish to startle any cats who might overhear. "It didn't seem like my place to go to Snowstar directly. I thought perhaps you could let me know what you think and pass on the idea if you like it?"

Stoneheart nodded and responded to his kits. "You are both right, he does have redish ginger fur and green eyes. You are quite imaginative kits. Do you want to explore camp? he asked, "I'm sure you're up for it." Stoneheart mewed with a smirk on his face. Of course my kits would want to explore camp! What kit wouldn't?

Thankfully Mintberry hadn't bitten him hard, but it was enough to get Ottertail's paw off of her and allow a small 'mmph!' of surprise to escape his maw. As she released him, the fluffy tom jumped back from her, his fur partly bristling - but he wasn't able to keep this position, because it fell apart as he began laughing. "Serves you right, trying to bite me!" The tom laughed, his eyes almost squinting up with mirth. He could almost feel small tears forming at the corners of his eyes, not because he was sad at all, but because he was laughing so hard at this point. Eventually Ottertail stopped, but he still didn't understand why he had found that one moment so funny. Maybe it had been Mintberry's rhyme at the end - too much fur, sir. It sounded like it had been perfectly planned, but she couldn't have had much time to think of it. If you asked him, it was pretty clever and snappy and clearly he had enjoyed it. "Do I have too much fur? Or do you not have enough?" He shot back, looking over Mintberry's more sleek body. There wasn't really a right answer to that - it varied depended on who you asked, it was a matter of opinion. Which Ottertail knew, of course.

Adderkit's eyes lit up with excitement at his mother's suggestion. "can we, for real?" He asked, his voice going squeaky with amazement. This was the first time he had actually showed any adventurous trait at all. " I want to see it all! it sounds like fun!" He jumped to his paws, but had gotten up too quickly. "ouch," He mumbled as he rubbed his nose, he had hit it on the floor of the den.

The ginger feline wanted to bite back at the medicine cat's words. But she held her tongue. She knew that what she said could be used against her when it came time for her grandmother to talk about her behavior. And Foxpaw hated when Springingsky tried to give her proper behavior etiquette. In that moment, Foxpaw realized she was being rude for no reason. Caliapaw had done nothing wrong, why was she snapping at her? It's Springinsky who deserves my bad attitude. "Sorry. I'm just kinda upset with someone." Foxpaw mumbled, hoping her explanation was enough for the other she-cat.

As Caliapaw spoke once more, Foxpaw let her own eyes rake across her ginger pelt. She didn't see anything too terrible about the scratches, they were just scratches after all. All warriors had them, right? "I was patched up after the battle, but very quickly. I guess then I just forgot that I should have them thoroughly looked over." Foxpaw kept her tone even, careful not to allow herself to snap at Caliapaw again. Even in her angered state, the apprentice hated talking to cats in a tone that they did nothing to deserve. She liked being fair. "I honestly don't think I'd get anywhere if I lived in my own, my brain is too full of other things." She joked, swishing her bushy tail in amusement at her own little joke. Of course, at this stage in her life, it was natural for her to go from being rude and stand-offish the playful and kit-like.

"What have I been doing?" Foxpaw repeated her question, looking at her shoulder wound with curiosity. She had thought something was wrong with it, but never really acknowledged the fact that it could be pretty bad. "Uhh, well trying to train myself for one. My mentor isn't around much anymore." She looked up from her wound to Caliapaw, watching as the other young cat went to get something. When she came back with a weird, root looking thing, Foxpaw's ears twitched. Her orange eyes studied every detail of the plant, taking it in bit by bit. As Caliapaw began to chew up the root, Foxpaw couldn't help but grimace. She would never want a plant to be in her mouth, that was just disgusting! Foxpaw barley registered Caliapaw's statement before a quick flare of pain entered her shoulder. The apprentice winced, but stayed as still as she could, digging her claws into the ground below. "Does every herb make your wounds hurt? What's the point of them then? I thought they were supposed to make you feel better!?" Her voice was not accusing, but more upset, like she was disappointed with the plants used to heal.

"Hm." That was Caliapaw's only response to Foxpaw's joke as she examined the she cat, her eyes narrowed. She didn't seem to have much of a reaction to anything else until Foxpaw's upset remark when she planted the chewed herb on the injured shoulder. "Well, it probably wouldn't hurt as much if you took care of yourself. Training yourself, are you crazy?" She hissed angrily, her ears going back. It wasn't much of her concern if Foxpaw hurt herself, but she definitely had a problem with cats acting like they were so tough. They didn't need to act tough. What they needed to do was take care of themselves so that the Clan had competent cats taking care of it. "You won't be doing any training for a few days, though. You are going to rest and stay off that shoulder."

Her eyes narrowed, and she examined Foxpaw. She was pretty sure she couldn't trust the apprentice just to "stay off it" if she let her go free. Is this what Wheatfur would do... or tell me to do? That was all she could think of, was what her former mentor would have done in this situation. She was still desperate to prove herself, desperate to make him proud, and she so badly wanted to make sure that she was doing the right thing. If only Wheatfur had a way of telling her that she was - but she hadn't seen him in her dreams, and now Caliapaw was worried that he just wasn't going to talk to her. Maybe he was angry with her. Maybe StarClan wasn't letting him. Either way, she was on her own for the moment being.

"And to make sure you stay off it, you're going to be staying here. I don't think I can trust you right now." Caliapaw already didn't trust cats very easily, but when it came to things like this, it wasn't a matter of personal trust - it was professional trust. There was a difference, after all. Regardless of whether Caliapaw trusted Foxpaw personally or not wasn't relevant here, she was pretty sure that the apprentice would give her word then turn around and go out and "train herself" again. "Maybe next time you won't try training yourselfand making it worse, yeah?" The she cat mewed, her expression stern and dark as she looked over Foxpaw.

He checked in the apprentice den which was empty. He ran up and peaked in Snowstar’s den. She’s not foolish enough to hide in the nursery...would Caliapaw let her hide in the medicine cat’s den? He began to walk it, not seeing her he left stumped No way...She wouldn’t leave camp! He ran into the nursery to tell her mother that she left camp only to see she was their,” kit! I ‘ought you left campee!” (Kit! I thought you left camp!) shock filled his voice as he stood their his mouth dropped in shock I guess she was smart enough to hide their and fool me.

"Okay." Minnowkit mewed, standing to her slightly wobbly paws, her ears pricked as she stood. She was slightly shaky on her paws, and flicked her tail, then shrinking slightly. Everything was so..big. A beetle walked near her paw, and she squeaked, jumping and retreating a few pawsteps until it left. Her pelt grew hot, but she didn't show her embarrassment.

Minnowkit followed, her tail lowered as she gazed around. The apprentices den looked nice enough, and Minnowkit imagined herself moving out of the nursery and into the bigger den, full of training cats. Her eyes grew large. "When?" She mewed, tilting her head,
How long did she have to wait before sleeping in that den?

2...Her heart raced in her tiny body at the thought of potentially spooking another cat. Having never done this sort of thing before, her mind whirled with all the possibilities of responses that Jaypaw could have. Would she be frightened? Mad at her for scaring her? Or respond positively to this playful act of teasing? Well, she figured she'll just find out when it happens.

3! And out she darted to barrel into her friend.

After distributing his gain, he sat down, his tail lashing for a moment. He eyed his fellow clanmates, throwing smiles at whichever ones caught his sullen gaze. That fight with the Syndicate wore him out, physically drained him and sore him. He didn't think it would take that long to heal from such pain, but it had. On top of that, he was pushing himself. He was always pushing himself. Passionblaze wanted to be bigger, he wanted to improve. He felt weakened in that battle, but they had won it. He wasn't dominated. Even when in beaten to a pulp, he shot back up. He readied himself for more pain - for more fights. It...it was the heat of the moment. Naturally, Passionblaze wasn't the type to strike violence. He was easy to approach, and very friendly, understanding, and polite. And, they say chivalry died...psh. Decorated with intricately set wounds, that made him appear more like artwork than an actual cat, Passionblaze was quite relieved that his seemingly thick pelt hid these...victories. These war gains. These trophies. Because he fought like a warrior, like a soldier.
Passionblaze's eyes widened slightly when he saw another approaching him. Shouting his name, the ginger Tom almost lost his footing from the state of shock. He briskly turned to his new company, giving a curt nod to listen to...who was this? Still new and all, Passionblaze was teaching himself to learn the names of his companions. When the other tom mentioned the upcoming battle with Windclan, Passionblaze jumped up, his fur bristling. "I almost forgot about that!" He exclaimed - how could he forget about that battle? If there was a tree, Passionblaze would had banged his head against it. Slowly, Passionblaze gained lost of control, but he was still self-conscious. He perked his ears towards his clan mate. "Oh, do you?" His voice was genuinely curious. He even gave a tilt of his head. "I'm all ears." He wiggled them upright, allowing the firmness of his stocky legs to relax from under mild pressure. If cats felt they couldn't go to their leader, Passionblaze was there to help them. He was an open minded tom that loved the opinions of others. And, exactly what this Tom had in mind about the upcoming war?

"Okay." Minnowkit mewed, standing to her slightly wobbly paws, her ears pricked as she stood. She was slightly shaky on her paws, and flicked her tail, then shrinking slightly. Everything was so..big. A beetle walked near her paw, and she squeaked, jumping and retreating a few pawsteps until it left. Her pelt grew hot, but she didn't show her embarrassment.

Minnowkit followed, her tail lowered as she gazed around. The apprentices den looked nice enough, and Minnowkit imagined herself moving out of the nursery and into the bigger den, full of training cats. Her eyes grew large. "When?" She mewed, tilting her head,
How long did she have to wait before sleeping in that den?
"When you're six moons old," Brightpaw said. "like me. I'm Brightpaw. It's to meet you and your littermates.", she said.

[Dovekit12]

"I'v been just sitting in the nursery with the other queens. I haven't done much." Owltail said while purring. "When do you think Kestelpaw will be done with his training."

"When you're six moons old," Brightpaw said. "like me. I'm Brightpaw. It's to meet you and your littermates.", she said.

Minnowkit leaped when Brightpaw spoke. "I-I'm Minnowkit." She stuttered, glancing back at the den. She flicked her tail, her eyes shining. 6 moons. That sounded like a long time to wait, but she was positive she could make it after a bit.

"You wanna know something else, Minnowkit?", the brownish-gray and white apprentice asked. "To be a warrior, you have to be at least twelve to fourteen moons.", Brightpaw said.

"Y-Yeah." She stuttered, nodding, interested in what Brightpaw would say next. The gray-and-white kitten looked up at her. "That seems like a long time being an apprentice." She mumbled, mostly to herself. She looked at a bigger den. That must be the warriors den. "I-Is that the w-warriors den?" She mumbled to Brightpaw.

(I just reread the gathering RP with the leader’s and it doesn’t look like Goldenstar mentioned Shadowclan sheltering in RC, so I’m going to operate under the assumption that Morningblue didn’t know, but Passionblaze might have.)

Morningblue noticed but didn’t acknowledge that he had surprised the deputy with his abruptness. He was used to it. As far as Thunderclan cats went, he was in the larger side. He rarely laughed or smiled or even spoke to cats he didn’t know well. Not only that, but when he did speak, his voice tended to be even and cold. He saw no need to do anything different. He wasn’t out to make new friends. He had his sister, and that was all the closeness he needed. The large blue tom mostly kept his head down and did his duty like a good soldier, and like a good soldier, he excelled in battle not just because of his physical strength but the fact that he saw weaknesses and strategies that others sometimes didn’t.

“When Snowstar asked us to try hunting in Shadowclan the patrol I went with got very close to their camp because there was no scent of them and we decided to investigate. Shadowclan territory had been completely flooded and unusable. They couldn’t have stayed there. They must have taken shelter in another clan’s territory with the clan leader’s permission. It obviously wasn’t Thunderclan. If Windclan was really as short on prey as Blazingstar said, He would have asked for Shadowclan’s assistance in fighting Thunderclan then and there to put pressure on Shadowclan since the would be indebted to Windclan. That just leaves Skyclan and Riverclan, and with kits and sick cats in tow, Riverclan territory being much closer, and Riverclan being known for their plentiful fish, Riverclan is much more likely. If that’s the case, Shadowclan may feel indebted to Riverclan so soon after being sheltered by them. If Riverclan asks for their help, there is a good chance they will do so. I think we should try and persuade Riverclan to fight with us. If I’m right, we would gain the support of Riverclan and Shadowclan in one fell swoop.” His argument made, Morningblue sat on his haunches, his cold, green gaze fixed on Passionblaze as he waited to see what the tom thought of his reasoning.

Stoneheart watched from afar as Minnowkit chatted with a young she-cat around the age of an apprentice. It was nice to see she was making friends. Perhaps she would be apprenticed soon enough that they could train together. He let out a sigh. It only seemed like the other day that he and Crowsong decided that they wanted to have kits of their own. But he loved his kits nonetheless, they were ever so precious to him, ever so valuable to his heart. Stoneheart turned around making sure Adderkit was near by and made himself comfortable on the ground.

Pinkpaw smiled,” There we go. You can settle down now, sweetheart.” She meowed politely,” What was your apprenticehood like?” She asked wanting a story.

Redpaw glanced at Boulderdust,” As in my language or I’m free to leave?” He meowed rather irritably.
"My apprentice hood? Well, let's see," Brambleleap laid back down in her nest, then attend an area in an offering for Pinkpaw to sit. "Wait. I said we'll see, but only you can see right now!" Brambleleap chuckled quietly, then shook her head. She began fidgeting with a ball of moss, rolling it back and forth between her paws as she spoke. "My apprentice hood was... Hard. I was blind, so it was rather hard for me to learn how to hunt and fight. I always needed someone with me to hunt, I needed to be able to hear someone moving to fight, it was just a mess. But I managed. I met Boulderdust in my apprentice hood, but we didn't know eachother well back then. Guess how much that changed!" Bramblekeap paused the story to look over in the direction of Boulderdust wth a smile. She then said, "I was actually a lot like your friend Redpaw's there with how I begaved. Whenever I was doing apprentice duties for the elders, everything had to be perfect. Perfect amount of moss, perfect fur for the elders, it just had to be perfect. But don't let that fool you, only Starclan knows how much of a mess I am." The long haired tabby laughed this time, loud and clear.

Pinkpaw nodded,"I see. It must have been extremely hard training without vision, as my mentor once made me do battle training with my eyes closed for in case a cat blinds me in battle...i doubt one cat could strike both eyes I'd guess...but a flea of prevention is worth a squirrel of cure." She meowed smiling softly at the warrior,"Did you and Boulderdust ever have kits?" She asked hoping that wasn't a soft spot.

A warrior entered the den his eyes wide,"I-It-It's Ivypaw. She must have fought a fox!" He meowed and ran out not waiting to see if his apprentice would be alright.
Ivypaw was unconscious due to blood loss. Her chest heaving and blood came out of her gashes. In her mind she was frolicking in a field singing about meeting Starclan, she could almost see them, but not quite.

Ivypaw was unconscious due to blood loss. Her chest heaving and blood came out of her gashes. In her mind she was frolicking in a field singing about meeting Starclan, she could almost see them, but not quite.

Caliapaw's fur bristled at the word 'fox' and she whirled around to see the apprentice, covered in blood lying unconcious on the ground. StarClan help me... Caliapaw wasn't anywhere NEAR ready for this! She hadn't prepared for an emergency like this, and her tail lashed back and forth with panic as she grabbed some cobwebs. "Stop the bleeding." She muttered to herself. Even in this time, Caliapaw was still talking to herself. She couldn't really give Ivypaw poppyseeds, as the apprentice wasn't concious, but she did know that she was going to have to try and get the other cat concious soon. This state was dangerous. She wasn't even sure where to apply the cobwebs first, the other cat was so covered in gashes... but she did her best, putting them down wherever she saw an open wound. Later I'll have to put something in those to keep them from getting infected. Those are some bad gashes... if she really did fight a fox, she couldn't be very smart. The she cat thought with a sigh. Still, right now it was her place to make sure that Ivypaw woke up and was okay. Her panic started to fade as the gashes slowly disappeared under the cobwebs she was putting on. Thank StarClan Wheatfur had left a large supply of them - she really should make sure that that was one thing they never ran low on. Still, the young apprentice was so covered in the sticky webs that Caliapaw wondered how she was going to survive... it seemed impossible at the moment. "Ivypaw? If you can hear me, open your eyes."

"Warriors den.." Minnowkit repeated, imagining herself big, sleeping in there with her littermates. That seemed like it would never come, but she knew it would...at some point..hopefully. She nodded as Brightpaw spoke, tail flicking. She glanced back at her father, who seemed pleased. Maybe..she and Brightpaw would be friends. Friends were a good thing, she thought so anyways, better than being alone forever.

Trickster~
A gentle hum rumbled from the older tomcat as he stepped out of his den and into the spacious clearing, where he was greeted with a soothing blanket of sunlight that shone itself through the trees above him. It was a rare sight indeed, considering how close they were to the cold season these days, so he would not dare complain to see even a single ray of warmth now. Of course, Flintheart was not one to have a huge fondness for the snow, but in all honesty, what feline actually liked the season of Leafbare? It was harder to hunt with less prey around, cats were easier to be prone to sickness and disease, kittens would surely die from the harsh temperatures if not taken care of properly and there were numbed paws and frozen whiskers to go around for everyone when you go out into the hunting grounds. The tall Burmilla had experienced the cold far too many times in his life than he liked to admit, yet he still would complain about it no matter how old or used to it that he got. He shook his head, knowing that today was not the day to be thinking about such pesky things such as this, he had things to do this morning and they were very important. Flintheart would give the occasional clan member a silent nod of greeting as he passed them, heading over to the den where the apprentices of Thunderclan slept. Normally, he would let Ebonypaw sleep in and take this time to relax, which he hardly did anyways, but this morning was not the time for that. He poked his head into the den, peering through the darkness of the area, seeing several warm bodies of young cats - apprentices - who were still asleep with gentle rises and falls of their chests. “Ebonypaw, wake up.” He mewed softly, yet loud enough to get the attention of his student, “Meet me out in the clearing.” Without another word, the male turned and headed out into the center of camp once more as his long tail swished back and forth behind him. It had been nearly a quarter moon since the battle at the Gathering and Flintheart had almost recovered fully from everything, his wounds were no longer bleeding and just shone as scars on his face and sides, clearly seen because the fur did not grow back over them, unfortunately, but the mentor seemed to sport them with a certain sense of pride that he had lived through yet another violent battle. The long slash across the left side of his face was most noticeable, being the nastiest and deepest of the cuts that he had received, but Flintheart did not mind at all. He had rested and made sure to let his apprentice regain himself for a while before starting up training again. The dark grey-furred tomcat gave a slight sigh as he sat down in the bare dirt at the edge of the clearing, not even bothering to get a piece of prey or lay down. He did, however, start to groom his fur, dragging his rough tongue over the fur on his shoulder as he now silently awaited Ebonypaw after being called forth this morning.




Ebonypaw’s pure black, fluffy fur was now groomed and shiny like always, he had a few scars on his muzzle and legs, but most of his wounds had fully healed. Ivorypaw had the same, mostly, but just a bit less severe due to choosing her battles a bit more wisely. Ebonypaw flicked his tail, laying it on his muzzle. His eyes were shut tight, not even the rare sunlight could wake him. Both apprentices were deep sleepers, though he could note the warmth seeping into his pelt with satisfaction. Ebonypaw still felt cold, however, and he fluffed out his fur slightly. He didn’t want to get up, his moss was so warm. And it was so hard to hunt..he just wanted..more sleep. He didn’t open his eyes, not wanting to face being unable to go back to sleep, but he knew Flintheart would wake him eventually. Ebonypaw wondered what type of training they’d do, he always had a plan, for the most part. He finally peeled open his eyes slightly, vision hazy, as he glanced at the opening of the den. Had he missed his mentor? He glanced around, unable to see the toms familiar pelt. Not yet. He closed his eyes, though trying to keep alert for his mentor, and relaxed. He’d probably be out of here soon, best to just..wait, not sleep. His mentor wasn’t one for sleeping in, so he probably would be out hunting or something soon. His jaws stretched in a yawn, and his moss was comforting, but he forced himself to remain alert, eyes half closed, waiting for his mentor to “wake him”. He wanted to do something, his paws itched for action and not just laying now. Odd. He usually wanted to lay around when it was cold, but he felt restless. He pricked his ears, noting his mentors voice. He stood, stretching out his limbs. “Okay.” He replied, still quite groggy. He swiped his tongue over his pelt a few times before heading out into the clearing. Ebonypaw padded out of the apprentices den, the almost-warrior aged cat glancing around for his mentor. He’d grown used to his pelt and stature, so easily spotted him in the clearing. He yawned once again, blinking the sleep from his eyes, and padded after his mentor. His tail swished behind him, and he glanced back at a soundly sleeping Ivorypaw. He felt a tiny pang of jealousy she got to sleep, but then again, he got to do something! He swiped his tongue over his pelt once more, to make himself look a bit more presentable, and then walked toward his mentor. Ebonypaw’s fur was plastered to his sides from his grooming, his eyes shown and he looked confident, wearing his battle scars with a sense of pride. His first battle! And he’d..kind of won! Ebonypaw wasn’t looking forward to the next battle, not at all, but he knew he could survive. The black tom finally caught up to his mentor, tail curling. “Hello.” He mewed, sitting, neatly curling his tail around his paws. The tom had matured slightly, and while remaining sarcastic and a bit rude, was a bit more..docile towards Clanmates. “What’s the plan for today?” He mewed, tilting his head slightly.

“Good morning.” The older tomcat greeted his apprentice as the youth joined him in the clearing, giving a gentle dip of his head before he looked up at the sky that peeked through the trees that loomed above them. It was a rare sight, indeed, with the sunlight that now bathed the Thunderclan camp since it was very close to the cold season, but Flintheart was only surprised by this, never complaining about such luck for the felines that inhabited this land. That thought alone, with the incoming snow and chilling winds that would soon plague the woods, made an uneasy shudder run up the Burmilla’s spine. He had already mentioned this beforehand when he had first awoke only moments ago, but the thoughts of the future weather still would come to bother him from time to time. Flintheart shook his head, knowing that it was not the time to get lost in such useless thoughts - there were more important matters at play this morning as he now glanced at his apprentice that was beside him. “Today is a very special day, Ebonypaw, can you guess what the day is, by any chance?” He decided to ask the dark-furred male for mere curiosity sake before they would go forth into their training session today. The grey-furred tomcat stretched out his paws, giving a slight yawn. Even though he had gotten the chance to rest up since the Gathering battle, he still found it difficult to sleep at certain times. One could even say that he was an insomniac, but Flintheart wasn’t sure if that was a bit too far fetched. He knew that he had ignored the youth’s question about what they would be doing today, but Ebonypaw would find out soon enough what was in store for him on this chilly day in autumn. It was important for them to wake up early and be prepared, despite all the chaos and violence that had shaken the clans to the core. Flintheart knew, however, that this had to be taken care of.

Shakenkit squealed at the intruder, WhisperPaw ran towards DirtStorm. "what are you doing here?!!!!!" said DirtStorm. "Aren't you happy to see your kin you abandon?!!!" replied WhisperPaw angrily questioning his mother. "How do you know? Did your father tell you?" "CrestHeart, yes!!!!" replied the young tom. "I did it for good reasons." said the queen. "Oooohh! What reasons caused you to give away your kit?" asked WhisperPaw in a sarcastic tone. "Because CrestHeart, your father needed an apprentice and you were meant to be in WindClan, I could sense it, from StarClan."

Suddenly after both cats took a long stare, CrestHeart ran into the ThunderClan camp. "WhisperPaw ran away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he yelled, arousing the camp. "Where is he? WhisperPaw! WhisperPaw!" he called. Finally WhisperPaw stepped nervously out of the nursery. "He just came to see me." said DirtStorm stepping out too. Then the big, broad shouldered warrior stepped into the clearing. "what are you doing here? This is not your territory!!!!!!!! You are lucky I don't claw both of you to pieces!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "I'm sorry it will not happen again, TangleHeart." said the apprentice politely. "now leave, both of you!" yelled TangleHeart. Both WindClan cats walked out of the camp, through the woods home to WindClan.

Thankfully Mintberry hadn't bitten him hard, but it was enough to get Ottertail's paw off of her and allow a small 'mmph!' of surprise to escape his maw. As she released him, the fluffy tom jumped back from her, his fur partly bristling - but he wasn't able to keep this position, because it fell apart as he began laughing. "Serves you right, trying to bite me!" The tom laughed, his eyes almost squinting up with mirth. He could almost feel small tears forming at the corners of his eyes, not because he was sad at all, but because he was laughing so hard at this point. Eventually Ottertail stopped, but he still didn't understand why he had found that one moment so funny. Maybe it had been Mintberry's rhyme at the end - too much fur, sir. It sounded like it had been perfectly planned, but she couldn't have had much time to think of it. If you asked him, it was pretty clever and snappy and clearly he had enjoyed it. "Do I have too much fur? Or do you not have enough?" He shot back, looking over Mintberry's more sleek body. There wasn't really a right answer to that - it varied depended on who you asked, it was a matter of opinion. Which Ottertail knew, of course.

Her green eyes widened at his laughing response before she gave him a scowl. "Laugh all you want, I'll get you back, don't you worry about it at all," she replied. The black and white she-cat scoffed before his question made her think for a split second. Of course, her smart mouth always had something to say. "You have enough fur to drown kits in it, fluff-butt," she replied, her tone filled with amusement. "And with my fur, at least I don't look like a blob of fluff everywhere I walk. You can at least see where my body starts and stops!" she gave a small laugh this time, rolling away from the moist pile of fur she had spat out. Her paws flailed slightly in the air before they thumped onto the ground beside her, between Ottertail and her. "But it's okay, your ability to drown cats in your fur will be useful one day!" she purred a little, her green hues bright with mischief.

"Warriors den.." Minnowkit repeated, imagining herself big, sleeping in there with her littermates. That seemed like it would never come, but she knew it would...at some point..hopefully. She nodded as Brightpaw spoke, tail flicking. She glanced back at her father, who seemed pleased. Maybe..she and Brightpaw would be friends. Friends were a good thing, she thought so anyways, better than being alone forever.
"I can show you where the medicine cat den, the leader's den, and the elders den is.", Brightpaw said. "Come on.", the grayish brown and white apprentice said. "Brightpaw!", a voice said. "Nevermind,
Minnowkit. I'll show you later. My mentor is calling me.", Brightpaw flicked her tail, padding across the clearing.

[Phoenix Flames]

"What did you need me for, Pathfinder?", Brightpaw asked. "The usual.," Pathfinder replied. "Come on; we're going to go hunting.", the ginger and white tom said. Brightpaw nodded, following her mentor out of camp.
