Pricklestep thought for a minute before stepping forwards. "Why not it might be some fun, I can fotry for Lionheart." he looked around at his clanmates wondering if they would except him as he tried to always to do the best for his clan.

Falconfeather
Purrks: Silver Tongue (Unactivite), Herbal Knowledge - T1

He clenches his teeth together with a soft clack as he watches Gingerstar leap gingerly down from his perch and past the bickering group. He momentarily locked gazes with the leader before the latter had looked over at the others in his group, eyes dark with irritation as he spoke lowly to them, then, moving on. Falconfeather's own dark gaze flashed back towards Fishpaw with a low growl before he himself left in the direction of the medicine den. He hadn't the time nor the patience to deal with this anymore, more important things called his attention. Before he entered the den, he caught sight of Tansypaw, eyeing her silently. He'd go find her again later, right now, all he wanted was a nap and something to eat. The new medicine cat sighed deeply and slipped quietly into his den.



FALCOFEATHER HAS LEFT THE MEETING

Ripplekit brightened when her bestie voted for her idea. She stopped walking to the nursery, sniffing away the tears, and ran up to Gingerbestie. "I volunteer for Lionheart!" she said, puffing out her chest proudly and standing up straight and tall, thinking without a doubt Gingerbestie would let her become one, even though she was a kit, had no idea how to become one, and didn't even know what they did.

So much happened in such a small span of time. Cheers of her name were still ringing in her head and she can hardly focus on Gingerstar's words with all the growing commotion. A new warrior, a new meeting stone name... And then some ruckus between apprentices. It's too much for her to handle. So when she locks eyes with Falconfeather as he begins back toward the medicine cat den, she hightails it after him, trotting quickly across the clearing to make it to his side and disappear inside the den too.

Tansypaw has left the meeting.

Floodstone named and meeting adjourned, Larkwing left the meeting feeling almost unreal with everything that had happened.

[Cornbread1233]

Beepaw left the meeting

[SeonghwasBunnyEars]

Alright, one, two... Silently tallying the votes in his mind, he was baffled by the amount that actually voted Gingerstone - yeah no. Not for him. A late contender, Wetrock, also got quite the few votes and he almost thought that one would win. But the one he arguably heard the most, also the one who reminded him of the flood they'd live, is 'Floodstone'. Although momentarily distracted by some annoying cats arguing during the meeting (including the new medicine cat, mind you) the winner of the vote was clear.
"Then it's settled. This... Thing, shall be know as the Floodstone."
He interrupted the arguing, eyes then falling on his child, whose gaze bore into his mind. His maw pressed together, looking back before he had to turn his attention on the clan once again.
"As a last note, we'll be looking for new Lionhearts. So step it up if you're interested in the position.
Meeting dismissed."
With that he deftly leapt of the stone, making his way past Fishpaw and the lot.
"Next time keep your arguing until after the meeting."
He mew, not caring to hear any more of it, so he left.

Amberwing stared at the rock in front of her. The rock she named. She prayed to Starclan, prayed with all her might that the name would stay. That she'd leave some mark from her, and why deny it at this point, meaningless life.

*-Larkwing-*
She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



She didn’t want to call this meeting. More than anything, she felt the fear and anxiety burning in her bones, her head at war with itself, pleading for her not to put herself in the spotlight, not to jump onto the newly named Floodstone and announce something that no cat would want to hear. How would the clan react? Would they jeer at her? Would they demand someone else replace her? Would they think she is to blame for this death? Would they pin her as the murderer even if she had Falconfeather tell them all that there’s no evidence he was killed by external blows or by poison? Would they all hate her?

Larkwing half wanted to know, and half never wanted to show her face in the clan again for the shame and the fear that coursed through her bones. But she couldn’t just not address them all, she couldn’t leave this announcement to someone else… like it or not, she is their acting leader now, if they’re willing, and she won’t be a sorry excuse for one even if it’s the very last thing she does. She doesn’t know what she feels for the stars that may dictate her life in the coming moons, part of her still feels nothing but reverence, nothing but awe. The other part of her loathes them for all that’s happened to her clan, her home in recent moons. But life goes on.

So, solemnly, reverently, mindful of the clan and especially of Mumblepaw, who’s grief she had granted be shared privately first, so they would not be subject to the torture of an entire clan witnessing them in such a state, Larkwing carries the once leader out of his den, and gently rests him below the Floodstone. She’s tired. She’s so tired and she doesn’t think she’s ready for this at all, but it has to be done even if she doesn’t want to, so she ignores the eyes that are definitely watching her, and takes her place on top of the Floodstone, speechless for a moment as she gathers her thoughts.

”RiverClan!” She yells out, and her voice is hoarse. She doesn’t make much of an effort to hide that. Would it be manipulation to appear distressed? Would they pity her and then not condemn her for something that wasn’t her fault? Would they even believe her or Falconfeather when they delivered the news? ”Please- please gather around the Floodstone for a meeting. It’s important.” The most important meeting they’ll have for some time if she has anything to say about it.

The cat slipped out of the warriors den, feeling tired. She was warm thanks to her fluffy pelt and looked like she hadn't slept in many moons. How could she be sleeping when her daughter was out there!? She looked at sweet, young LarkWing with pity. The poor thing looked stressed to the bone!

A chill of dread, of horrible deja vu, shot up the ragdolls spine and she hurried to the front of the Floodstone. Larkwing was on the Floodstone. Larkwing looked sad, looked nervous. Where was her father figure. She needed to see him. Frantic desperation morphed her face as she looked up at Larkwing, eyes wide, face drained of blood. "Where is he? Please where is he?" She felt her fur spike and she felt her pulse racing. She couldn't lose another parent. She couldn't lose her mentor. Surely Larkwing would tell her.... Surely it wouldn't be so sudden?

Yeah, floodstone. He saw Larkwing at it, calling for the clan. He had a horrible feeling in his stomach. Neverless, he treked his way over. She noticed birdpaw, who seemed particuarly stressed. He tumbled over to her, his one blue eye gleaming with worry. "Squeaa," he mewed, attemping to climb on her. If he got up, he would start grooming her neck fur. "Squeaaaa,"

Hearing Larkwing's call was just as surprising for the older warrior, stirring from her desperately needed rest in the warrior's den. It hadn't been long at all since she was patched up but stars she was feeling much better all ready. A yawn parted her jaws as she slowly pushed herself to her paws. A wince escaped her throat. Ok well... maybe she wasn't completely healed yet... As she pushed her way from the den, Cherryswirl blinked back the harsh light of the sun and made her way to her usual haunt by the newly named Floodstone. Settling down, the warrior tipped her head from side to side, keeping her tone hushed as not to disturb a very... wow... Larkwing looked really distressed. Where was Gingerstar? Under the weather? She hadn't seen him too long ago. Was everything ok? Dread prickled her pelt and it seemed to radiate out in waves from the crowd of clanmates gathering. After a moment, she finally whispered to no one in particular,

"Does anyone know what this is about?"

What was a meeting? Otterkit didnt know but Dad had said this was riverclan and he was part of riverclan so Otterkit should gather right? Yeah.


So the kitten toddled up, fat and short little kitten legs not really helping him in his journey and sat among the throng of cats a little unsure. There were.... a lot. And they were so big! Little Otterkit was dwarfed and unsure and getting a little scared. Where was someone he knew, someone to comfort him. Itd be a hard task, he only knew two cats, his dads!
"Dada! Papa!"
He couldnt see his Dada's ginger pelt or his Papa's brown longer coat anywhere and he wanted them here.
"Where are you! Dada! Papa?"
The little kitten was shrinking in on himself, fast becoming scared with the tension filled air of the meeting. Something was wrong. Deep in his little bones he knew even if at the moment he didnt know how deeply this loss related to him.


"....Wheres my Dads?"

Wai-wha-what-whah..!? Concern and worryness overtook them as the meeting was called. It wasn't Gingerstar calling the meeting, it was now Larkwing...and....her voice sounds....not great. Sunsetpaw was always the positive cat...but...what had happened..couldn't have been anything great. What had happened to Gingerstar..? No..it can't be what the think...he's..still alive..right...? Right..? Right?? Oh no they didn't think what they thought of last meeting about the whole "Gingerstar dying early then getting replaced then that leader dies early" thing to be true after some time..no..it can't be true. It can't. They don't know what happened! They shouldn't be assuming random stuff like that.
Things would...be alright....right..? But... it didn't sound or look like anything good. Oh no what happened to Gingerstar? Y'know, it's possible that...he...is just busy, right? And is leaving the job to his deputy! Right? But...it just...didn't sound anything good...no...it sounded like the opposite. Now, Sunsetpaw should just...go to the stone.

And so walked over to the Floodstone, sighing. The apprentice watched the other cats before their gaze went back to the deputy. The only possible news here is bad news, which is horrible. But even if they would hate it, whatever it was, they had to face it.
And while it took them some time to actually see it, there it was. The dead body of the leader...former leader, now. "oh no....this...can't be good..." they whispered to themself. They didn't remember the last time they were whispering. Usually they would just talk normally...though this time they whispered. They just...had a feeling that it's better for them to just be mostly quiet right now.They wanted to ask Larkwing what happened but, they didn't want to bother her. Did Larkwing even know what happened..? They didn't want to take the guess. If Larkwing knew, she would probably address that in the meeting...

What had happened to Gingerstar...? Did...the cold get him....? It was possible...with...the lowering temperature...so it's easier to get sick but- if he was sick then why didn't he just go ask the medicine cats about it...? Maybe he just...didn't want to go bother them...if he died because of that..then...he..well..did he sacrificed himself so the medicine cats won't be that busy...? Was that it...? They weren't sure and they didnkt want to assume what happened. They weren't there, how would they know...? Sunsetpaw hated death, obviously. And this death was no different, especially since Gingerstar wasn't a bad leader from what the clan had seen in the short period of time. Would Mumblepaw be alright? He was close with Gingerstar so it would probably hurt to find out that Gingerstar is dead. Hopefully Mumblepaw would stay strong. Though every cat is allowed to grief because someone died. They were also very sad when their brother died some moons ago.

It was terrifying. The look in her eyes, the fear in her voice. As more and more clan mates appear in the clearing to stare up at Larkwing, all that hits her is the growing fear scent. Hushed voices, concerned whispers... Stars, the molly hadn't even said anything yet and everyone was already in a tizzy. As she sits in the entrance to the medicine cat den, she watches with sad eyes, perfectly still.

Things were going to get a lot tougher.

"a true warrior helps her clan..."

raventail came and sat with the rest of the clan. her fur lay flat as she looked up at their deputy. a cat she looked up too really- a deputy with power over part of the clan...something she wished to be. she tucked her tail to her side and kept her eyes on the acting leader.

[Kass]

Dunepaw
It took a few moments to raise his head sleepily from his nest. Blinking away the sleep he clambered out and came to a stop when he saw gingerstar. Larkwing had called the meeting not ginger. Fear made his fur spike up as he an over seeking out anyone he knew for comfort or to give comfort to. Seeing cherryswirl his heart lurched and he trotted over. Ears flat he looked around, fear evident in his brown eye and his slightly shaking form. W-what do you thinks going to happen..Will sir ginger lose a life?… I’m scared. he hates sick cats. He hated the thought of them and he hated the stench of herbs the most. Sandpaw…what do I do? You were always the smarter one please! he could feel the tears brimming his eyes. He looks like sandpaw. He looks sick.

no no NO! he can’t help but see the worst of this outcome. Ginger would probably lose a life if his sickness gets any worse. He would continue to be sick even after he loses that life. It will be a never ending cycle of death.

They didn’t care and that was clear enough. Murderers, they were murderers to him. Snake pads gingerly out of the learners den. Eyes misty with tears as he walks around the crowd and straight towards their father’s body. Anyone in the way was forcefully shoved out of their path. Mumblepaw is silent, getting down in a laying position and nuzzled the ginger cat’s body. Words couldn’t describe how he felt. The dread, anger and grief all gone the moment he saw their father’s lifeless body. It was washed away in a small wave of emptiness that spread across fang’s mind. Licking their fathers forehead as he mumbled to him. “It’s okay…you did your best, I know that…” The words fading as they went back to focusing on his dead father. One cat stood out of him in the crowd. Two actually, just this one he barely knew. Otterkit was talking about their papa. Mumblepaw could care less, Gingerfrost was their focus. Anyone who dared approach them would have to face the consequences of that, but that was for later. He needed to be buried after this meeting. Larkwing had something to do with his death, but that was a thought for another day. The calico protectively moved the ginger tom’s body close to their own as he licked the fur he could, surely they could bury him and then the Stars that Guide could send him back.

Cherryswirl perked up at the familiar voice of Dunepaw, turning to meet the apprentices worried gaze. Ushering him to settle down next to her, she kept close - her bleary, sleepy gaze only now catching sight of GIngerstar, or rather his very still body, rested on the floodstone, then to Mumblepaw who mourned beside him. Her fur bristled immediately, muscles tending as she let out a soft wail,

"Larkwing, what-" Though she snapped her maw shut, not wanting to worry Dunepaw more than he already was. Golden eyes slipped to his frame, noting just how much he had grown. Dunepaw was almost as big as her - especially with all that fluffy fur. Cherryswirl swallowed hard. She didnt want to be horribly blunt but... she didnt want to lie to Dune either,

"I don't think he's... sick... Dune. Prepare yourself for bad news." She meowed rather dryly, her golden eyes pinned back on Larkwing's form. Her mind was wandering to all sorts of situations- though she had no doubt Lark had nothing to do with this.

He wanted to curse the stars, tear them out from the sky and watch the ones above him bleed for their doings, the curse that laiden upon RiverClan that they had so wrongly decided. But he couldn't. They hung mockingly in the black night, laughing and glowing at him with all their power. They laughed and pointed and took pleasure of making a fool out of his clan, pushing and shoving and hitting, blow after blow after blow. Each one packing more viciousness and raw power, beating down this clan. Their crashing fall had started with Lionstorm, a cat he only knew from stories as a kit, and had slowly trickled down the long line of leaders, one by one. Frostfall, Eagleflight, Dirtfur, Sootflare, Stormcall , Splashleap, Sparrowskip, Snowleap, Slatewhisker, now it the tragedy had struck Gingerfrost, and it would only be a matter of time before it would take Larkwing too.

She would follow the same, sad faith of every one before her. He felt remorse, anger, denial at what had happened, and what would happen. He would hope, pray, beg, plead with the stars and his ancestors that in some way, somehow, maybe she could earn the respect of StarClan. Maybe Larkwing could prove herself to be better than their previous leadership, that she had more sense, more logic. That she could bring their clan back to power once more, before Evil Era, when life was simple. Falconfeather would hope, yes he would. He had faith in his sibling that she could do it, she had the patience, the brains. Maybe not the confidence in herself, but Falcon's own trust and assurance in her made up for her lack of self-esteem. She could do it

He follows behind his little sister, gently helping her lay their fallen leader in front of the Floodstone, and situating him to look more peaceful position, less awkward-looking, yet he knew that death could never look peaceful, no matter how you tried to hide it. The healer touched his nose to the ginger cat's fur once more, before slipping off to sit closer towards the base of the Floodstone, watching the clan gather before him at Larkwing's hoarse, sullen words. He sat, mulling over how he would explain it, the best way he could. He knew their were little ones here, but if he just came out and told them exactly what he found, no sugar-coating it, he deemed it better off that the clan wouldn't pin the blame on him and Larkwing. He shared similar concerns as the tortie. Wondering silently if the clan would think of it as a scheme, that maybe Larkwing and him were planning this all along, waiting for the right time. That maybe Larkwing wanted Gingerfrost dead, so she could be leader.

Any cat with enough sense as a newborn kit could see that Larkwing didn't have anything to do with the leader's death, he knew his sister, and after his inspection for the cause, he was certain it was just stress, or some internal condition Gingerfrost had that caused him to die. He catches the vivid chocolate eyes of Tansypaw glowing from the entrance of their den, and gives her a small nod of greeting, hoping she'd catch the hint to come sit by him, or closer up the front of the growing crowd. He sees a small, thin calico slink up solemnly towards Gingerfrost's body, silently settled down in a laying position and nuzzles the older cat's ginger fur. Sorrow for the younger cat washes of Falconfeather, knowing how close Mumblepaw and Ginger were. He knew Gingerfrost was Mumblepaw's father, and was glad Larkwing gave the apprentice time to mourn and grieve on his own in private, away from the torturing eyes of the clan. If he catches the cat's eye, or attention, Falcon would nod at them.

The silver-furred healer turned his attention once more towards the gather cats, dreading what would come next.

"Hurry Darksong we are gonna miss the end of it if we dont run faster"Mistfur said

"Im trying im not as fast as a Windclan cat"She whisperd back.

Jackdawkit's eyes widened. Bitterberry's amber gaze narrowed into slits as she looked at Larkwing. Gingerstar was dead? Breezeberry growled softly, while their sister, Brindleberry, lay her tail tip on his shoulder. Shellwhisker fixed a neutral gaze on Larkwing, ice-blue eyes unreadable. Jackdawkit bounded over to Falconfeather, her blue eyes wide with terror. She crouched beside the medicine cat, ears flat and her sleek, black fur fluffed out.

it's Falconfeather again. he frowns, looking at his half-sibling with sadness. he does not know how he feels - but he worries that Larkwing will be blamed for Gingerfrost's death. he turns his gaze to the sky, watching the laughing stars emerge. his eyes fill with anger and his body stiffens. he wants to do something anything that can make a difference. he wants to kill something, harm anything - to get rid of his anger.

tears of rage stream down his cheeks, before he rubs them away with a paw. he comes up slowly to Falconfeather, not knowing if he is welcome or not. he comes in front of his brother, and he stops - looking slightly down at his half-brother. "I am so sorry, Falconfeather. This is...."" curse StarClan! they're taking everything away from RiverClan! he starts to tremble with his suppressed rage, his claws sinking into the dirt at his paws.

"Is there anything I can help, my brother? I will do anything to make this life easier. Please, let me help." He says softly, looking at his half-brother before looking at Larkwing over his shoulder. He wants to say he loves them, but those words are impossible for him to say. wholly impossible.

Shrike’kit / Habit
the small furless Tom cat poked his head out of the lichen. He was confused by all the commotion coming from outside and was scared when sir falcon had left the den. He stood a little ways away from tansypaw, she was alright they just hadn’t spoken before and he was more than willing to keep it that way. Hesitantly he put a paw outside shocked that it wasn’t as cold as he had originally thought. Shakily he padded out and crept forward to somewhat sit away from the others. His green eyes glittering as he gazed up at the large rock where a she cat was sitting down and where another cat lay limp.

Cocking his head to the side he watched as more cats gathered around confused as to why they listened. Questioning eyes turned to falconfeather as he took a few hesitant steps towards the only cat he had felt a connection with. W-whats going on? he mowed quietly in a shaky voice. He was obviously extremely nervous and uneasy from the situation.

Dunepaw
It took a moment before he finally realized why ginger wasn’t moving. He was already dead wasn’t he? Tears silently fell from his eyes as he stared at the cat whom he had grown to respect, the cat who had worked hard to at least try and bring riverclan back together after beanstar destroyed it. His heart lurched and a bile taste entered his mouth. Standing up he padded over to the side away from the crowded area and threw up. The sight of dead cats made him sick to his stomach and it made him feel awful for the cats who would mourn his death. He obviously wasn’t close to ginger star but so many others were.

*-Larkwing-*
She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



And here comes the stares, the questions, the concerns… Larkwing almost turns numb to them even as she’s addressed countless times. A mantra of ’your fault, your fault, your fault, your fault,’ swims around her head, vicious and cruel and she doesn’t have the strength to stop it. She doesn’t even want to stop it. This death wasn’t her fault, but she feels the weight of it pressing down on her shoulders and suddenly it’s the entire sky instead. She may as well have been the one to murder him. Not his heart, not the stars, not anything else. It may as well have been her very paw.

”Um-“ she starts, and trips over the words in her mouth immediately, a grief that shouldn’t belong to her swelling on her tongue. She wants to cry. She wants to run away and hide and never show her face again. But she has duties she needs to see to, cats to address. ”When I went to talk with Gingerstar this morning, just to ask him some simple questions, I entered his den to find him dead. Laying on his nest stiff and cold. I thought- I thought that couldn’t be possible- he’d been fine the night before so unless he’d been- unless he’d been murdered there was no way.” She hates the way her voice catches when she says ‘murdered’, hates the way the screaming mantra in her brain starts trying to tell her she did it, it’s her fault.

”I talked to- I talked to Falconfeather. He said that there’s no evidence he was murdered. No trace of poison, no external blows. It’s his heart that killed him. He can- Falcon can tell you better than I can.” And she shoots a desperate look to her older brother, begging for help, begging for him to come up here and talk to them himself, tell them what he found. There’s a paranoia eating at her mind, at her heart, and she can’t make it shut up. Maybe she should ask for some poppy seed… Will they all hate her? Will they blame her? Will they think this is some sort of cover up? She doesn’t want to think about it, can’t get the mantra out of her head. She’s not ready for this.

Rabbitkit and Blossomkit listened. They thought Gingerstar's DEAD?! And his heart made him dead?! That doesn't make ANY sense. Hearts keep you ALIVE! They DO NOT make you dead! Dead is the exact opposite of alive! This meeting makes no sense so far.


Wishkit sat, wondering how Gingerstar's heart could cause Gingerstar to die. Didn't you need a heart to live? How could something you needed to live cause Gingerstar to die?

Toadkit listened, wondering why all of their leaders kept dying. First Beanstar and now Gingerstar. It was like becoming a RiverClan leader somehow made you die.

Deerkit listened. She thought wait Gingerstar's heart killed him? How did that happen?

Beekit leaned into soft fur while purring and sniffed the air. She had never smelled most of those cats before, nor did she think she had ever smelled so many cats at a time before. Unaware of the announcment she kept sniffing the air, taking in all of the new scents. One of the new cat scents was higher up then a cat scent had ever been before. She wondered why that was.

Toadkit sighed. She hadn't gotten much alone time or much time with just anycat who wasn't Beekit since Beekit decided to stick herself to her side for some reason. She wondered why on earth the other kit was so clingy. She wasn't even that much younger than her! Beekit wasn't even any fun! If she tried to play with her Beekit always managed to mess the game up! She even managed to mess up mossball! Until she tried to play mossball with Beekit she didn't even know it was possible to mess mossball up but Beekit was very very talented at messing EVERYTHING up! Even mossball! Beekit also wasn't any fun to talk to cause she never ever responded! She did sometimes make funny sounds but she was pretty sure they didn't mean anything. Beekit also wasn't any fun to make fun of cause she never ever responded! The most grumpiest elder in the whole wild world was probably more fun then Beekit!

purrks: herbal knowledge tier 1

---

This was painful. The news hits harder than the first time for some odd reason. Was it because now it was real? Wasn't some bad dream that was mentioned to her by Falconfeather in passing that she just sat and dwelled on because she wasn't told anything else? Tears well in her eyes as she stares at the motionless bundle of fur that is Gingerfrost below the Floodstone but she blinks them away. If momma were here, she would tell her to be strong. Be strong and do what you have to do! That's what brave cats do! Swallowing hard, her stare falls upon Larkwing. Stuttering and suffering all alone atop a stone that was hers to stand upon too soon. It was obvious she wasn't ready. Obvious she was scared and nervous and in a panic. Tansypaw could relate. She was always in some kind of panic. As the fear scent from the crowd grows stronger, as does Larkwing's from above, she ducks back into the medicine cat den.

Quickly trotting toward the herb storage, she takes a small stalk of thyme into her mouth and spins around to make her way back out. A deep breath and she's pushing through the crowd toward the front. Chocolate hues flash upwards, filled with uncertainty, before she gathers the courage to jump up beside Larkwing. The thyme is set gently at her paws, sorrow pooling her gaze as she whispers to her.

"Here. It helps me when I'm nervous. Momma always found some for me when I was scared or anxious. It should help. Be strong."

After the quick exchange, she leaps back down and quickly makes her way to sit beside Falconfeather, paws trembling from her own nervousness.

He knew something was wrong, he had been enough time near leaders or high ranks to know something was bad... He had this feeling when he approached the Floodstone... And soon the bad news were announced, he grimaced, gosh dang it... He spoke in a calm but sad way "May StarClan welcome him in their eternal hunting, it was an honor serving under his orders.", that was said aloud... Gingerstar had been a great leader... For the short time he had directed the clan. He had done enough to prove he could have been a great leader in the future...


The massive Lionheart lifted his head toward Larkwing and spoke up again, determined "If Gingerstar is dead, I shall serve you like I served under him, if needed I shall go to the Dark Forest and back to get a leader back. Gingerstar had prooven to have done the great decisions. And if he had chosen you to be a deputy. He made the right choice. You got all my support. Because RiverClan have to be united. Or else we will fall divided, but WE.WILL. NOT!"

He finished, litterally screaming the last words, before silencing himself...

[Rani]

No one was helping. No one was helping! Where were the little kits parents! He didnt know this place, he didnt know these cats, they were of no comfort to him.

Otterkit was new to riverclan so so knew being brought in by Gingerstar and Ferretsnap less then three days before this loss and to say the infant had settled in would be a lie. He'd spent these days clinging to either tom he could find, scared and new and not even ready to be introduced to the clan besides the little baby steps he was making in finding one or two interactions of his own accord. Slow progress.

But now? Now neither tom was anywhere to be found. His Papa, Ferretsnap, wasnt here and he didnt even know how to ask for him to be found and his Dada, Gingerfrost? Well the kit hadnt seen the body yet over the heads of the crowd but it was only a matter of time. The little tom couldnt ask for them either, their names were foreign to him and the kit was simply to little to realize Dada and Papa had names besides Dada and Papa. So all the talk of Gingerstar Gingerstar Gingerstar meant nothing to him.

He didnt know his Dada was dead, only that he wasnt here and that was terrifying enough.

Otterkits little fat head whipped around from towering cat to towering cat, little chest heaving faster and faster as he started to panic. Everyone seemed to him like cold impossible titans and his eyes wetted as he started to cry from fear. It was too much TOO MUCH! He shouldve stayed hiding in the soft place Dada told him was his den now, but the rock lady had said every cat! His throat tightened, turning his words strangled as he cried once more "Dada! Papa! 'M scared!" before he was forced to give up. They werent coming, just like his parents hadnt come before when we was left alone in a bush. Maybe he was a bad kit again? But Otterkit thought he was doing good?


Whatever it was he needed to get out. Clumisly tripping and pawing his way out of the throng, sniffling all the way, Otterkit had found a gap and was just about to break for the nursery when he saw a flash of ginger fur. He knew that fur! That was Dada! He was flopped in front of the large rock with some cat grooming him, that confused the kitten but also made sense. Of course he didnt hear Otterkit calling for him! He was sleeping!


Course changed and quick as a flash Otterkit toddled up to the corpse, mewling and chirping as kittens did. "Dada? Dada sleeping, wake up! Cant find Papa 'n Im scared." He'd burrow in his fathers fur if he'd got there..... Though he'd never reach him, fate was cruel today.


[Open for a warrior or queen to nab him and carry him back to the nursery. Yes hes a ginger kiddo but he was just adopted into the clan 3 days ago so no one knows this and he'd not able to talk well/audibly rn.

Recovering from his lack of thoughts he stumbled over to the body noticing a kitten. Bending down he grabbed the small bundle and began hauling it towards the nursery. After setting them down he nudged him. Hey it’s going to be fine papa is just sleeping. he paused. He truly didn’t want to mess this kitten up so instead he offered a bright smile. Uhhh wanna play in the camp stream with me? We can see who can catch the most minnows?

"i know i may not know everything in this world of ours" she meowed "but....i will serve you when you get your nine lives to be leader!" she raised her tail and stepped forward. "arnt we riverclan? we flow with life! whatever happened to gignerfrost is part of starclan. we must accept what they have done and keep on living" she dipped her head and sat down "i am sorry if i talked out my turn but i had to say that" she mewed in a low tone, her tail curled around her tail and she looked into larkwings eyes. she wasnt a warrior very long but she could see larkwing being the best leader ever!

Frecklepaw gasped softly. He hardly knew the cat but it only made him more upset. Gingerstar, frost? Did Gingerfrost even revive the nine lives? Whoever, barely got to serve as leader. The mystery remained as to how he had died. That worried him the most. Frecklepaw felt his ears twitch nervously and he swallowed.

Silverpaw felt his heart shattering into pieces at the hear of the news. He could remember when Gingerfrost tought him how to hunt.

W-what will his brother say?? What will they feel?! Silverpaw knew how close Mumblepaw was to the former leader.

And.... Gingerstar wasn't killed by someone, he was killed by something, so Silverpaw couldn't do anything against the leader's murderer.

"But hadn't Gingerstar received multiple lives?? Where are they? Help him! " he roared with pain in voice.

Cherryswirl watched as Dunepaw scurried away to throw up, her brow furrowing with worry. Dunepaw was a sensitive cat... she wasn't too surprised - but she would give him some space. Hovering wouldn't do him any good, and plus, Cherry was feeling rather irritated as Nightspark began to shout. His original statements had been lovely, and rather agreeable.. but....

"What in the stars are you talking about?! We can't go get Gingerstar back. Do you have your head in the clouds?!" She snapped towards the Lionheart - though there was no real malice to it. The last thing they needed was to start stressing everyone out - Larkwing especially. She had only just become the deputy for stars sake!!

"Right now, we should be concerned on where we go from here, not fantasizing about things we can't control." She lashed her tail, pacing towards the tom-cat. Cherry huffed, settling back down. Hopefully, he'd be able to see the reason behind her words - though her irritation wasn't over as another voice grated her nerves. She turned quickly towards Craneblood her hackles raised,

"She's addressing the clan is what shes doing! You best watch your tone! As the deputy, she has more than enough right to call a clan meeting!"

Darksong sat there with Mistfur next to her thinking on how his heart would have killed him when he was acting fine the day before

"I knew it Darksong I knew something was wrong with that leader"Mistfur whispered.

"I understand Mistfur I still dont know how this could have happened to the poor GingerStar".Darksong cryed

The sat there just observing everything what was going on seeing the kits ask there mom and they knew that they needed to figure everything out in the other clans before things happened and stuff became bigger.

"Ugh while I guess its just a hear by ear if there is a ceromy happening"Mistfur said

"True now we just have to play the waiting game to see if there is going to be a new leader appointed soon".Darksong whsipered

"I wanna be leader but I dont think the clan would like me a new warrior to be the new leader".Mistfur complained

They decided to walk off and try to find Larkwing.

Mistfire
Riverclan queen

So her feelings of concern were real...she hadn't felt safe since the flood and know this happened...they had lost so many leaders in such a short amount of time...Why? Was the question she wanted to know why did this happen? Why were Starclan punishing? Claws digging into the ground she gave an angry lash of her tail before turning back her conflicted gaze back to Larkwing.

Such a young cat was supposed to lead them...could she do that Mistfire had her doubts many in fact this she-cat was unexperienced, unprepared and, probably, uncertainty she couldn't stop herself she just didn't have faith that Larkwing could be leader no matter how hard she tried.

Deciding to silence her differing thoughts the grey queen just stayed put and waited for Falconfeather, the medicine cat, to bring some light to the mystery of Gingerstar's death that had shadowed the clan in a matter of moments.

Birdpaw

A chill of dread, of horrible deja vu, shot up the ragdolls spine and she hurried to the front of the Floodstone. Larkwing was on the Floodstone. Larkwing looked sad, looked nervous. Where was her father figure. She needed to see him. Frantic desperation morphed her face as she looked up at Larkwing, eyes wide, face drained of blood. "Where is he? Please where is he?" She felt her fur spike and she felt her pulse racing. She couldn't lose another parent. She couldn't lose her mentor. Surely Larkwing would tell her.... Surely it wouldn't be so sudden? He had been fine earlier!

BlueberryPaw looked around, eyes sad and wide. GingerStar was dead...!? How would her sister take this!? BlueberryPaw's eyes instantly met BirdPaw's. She silently padded to her sister and rested her tail on Birdie's back. "Bird, are you ok?" She asked softly and patiently.

What was a meeting? Otterkit didnt know but Dad had said this was riverclan and he was part of riverclan so Otterkit should gather right? Yeah.


So the kitten toddled up, fat and short little kitten legs not really helping him in his journey and sat among the throng of cats a little unsure. There were.... a lot. And they were so big! Little Otterkit was dwarfed and unsure and getting a little scared. Where was someone he knew, someone to comfort him. Itd be a hard task, he only knew two cats, his dads!
"Dada! Papa!"
He couldnt see his Dada's ginger pelt or his Papa's brown longer coat anywhere and he wanted them here.
"Where are you! Dada! Papa?"
The little kitten was shrinking in on himself, fast becoming scared with the tension filled air of the meeting. Something was wrong. Deep in his little bones he knew even if at the moment he didnt know how deeply this loss related to him.

LilyLeaf's eyes widened as she finally heard what had happened. GingerStar died...wow...so many leaders had died. She hoped that poor LarkWing wouldn't travel that path... She heard a mewling, a kit looking for their dads. She turned to see them crouched and scared. "Hey, little one! Do you need help finding your dads? What're there names?" She meowed in a comforting voice.

Falconfeather
Purrks: Silver Tongue (disabled), Herbal Knowledge - T2

He wanted to curse the stars, tear them out from the sky and watch the ones above him bleed for their doings, the curse that laiden upon RiverClan that they had so wrongly decided. But he couldn't. They hung mockingly in the black night, laughing and glowing at him with all their power. They laughed and pointed and took pleasure of making a fool out of his clan, pushing and shoving and hitting, blow after blow after blow. Each one packing more viciousness and raw power, beating down this clan. Their crashing fall had started with Lionstorm, a cat he only knew from stories as a kit, and had slowly trickled down the long line of leaders, one by one. Frostfall, Eagleflight, Dirtfur, Sootflare, Stormcall , Splashleap, Sparrowskip, Snowleap, Slatewhisker, now it the tragedy had struck Gingerfrost, and it would only be a matter of time before it would take Larkwing too.

She would follow the same, sad faith of every one before her. He felt remorse, anger, denial at what had happened, and what would happen. He would hope, pray, beg, plead with the stars and his ancestors that in some way, somehow, maybe she could earn the respect of StarClan. Maybe Larkwing could prove herself to be better than their previous leadership, that she had more sense, more logic. That she could bring their clan back to power once more, before Evil Era, when life was simple. Falconfeather would hope, yes he would. He had faith in his sibling that she could do it, she had the patience, the brains. Maybe not the confidence in herself, but Falcon's own trust and assurance in her made up for her lack of self-esteem. She could do it

He follows behind his little sister, gently helping her lay their fallen leader in front of the Floodstone, and situating him to look more peaceful position, less awkward-looking, yet he knew that death could never look peaceful, no matter how you tried to hide it. The healer touched his nose to the ginger cat's fur once more, before slipping off to sit closer towards the base of the Floodstone, watching the clan gather before him at Larkwing's hoarse, sullen words. He sat, mulling over how he would explain it, the best way he could. He knew their were little ones here, but if he just came out and told them exactly what he found, no sugar-coating it, he deemed it better off that the clan wouldn't pin the blame on him and Larkwing. He shared similar concerns as the tortie. Wondering silently if the clan would think of it as a scheme, that maybe Larkwing and him were planning this all along, waiting for the right time. That maybe Larkwing wanted Gingerfrost dead, so she could be leader.

Any cat with enough sense as a newborn kit could see that Larkwing didn't have anything to do with the leader's death, he knew his sister, and after his inspection for the cause, he was certain it was just stress, or some internal condition Gingerfrost had that caused him to die. He catches the vivid chocolate eyes of Tansypaw glowing from the entrance of their den, and gives her a small nod of greeting, hoping she'd catch the hint to come sit by him, or closer up the front of the growing crowd. He sees a small, thin calico slink up solemnly towards Gingerfrost's body, silently settled down in a laying position and nuzzles the older cat's ginger fur. Sorrow for the younger cat washes of Falconfeather, knowing how close Mumblepaw and Ginger were. He knew Gingerfrost was Mumblepaw's father, and was glad Larkwing gave the apprentice time to mourn and grieve on his own in private, away from the torturing eyes of the clan. If he catches the cat's eye, or attention, Falcon would nod at them.

The silver-furred healer turned his attention once more towards the gather cats, dreading what would come next.

*-Larkwing-*
She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



And here comes the stares, the questions, the concerns… Larkwing almost turns numb to them even as she’s addressed countless times. A mantra of ’your fault, your fault, your fault, your fault,’ swims around her head, vicious and cruel and she doesn’t have the strength to stop it. She doesn’t even want to stop it. This death wasn’t her fault, but she feels the weight of it pressing down on her shoulders and suddenly it’s the entire sky instead. She may as well have been the one to murder him. Not his heart, not the stars, not anything else. It may as well have been her very paw.

”Um-“ she starts, and trips over the words in her mouth immediately, a grief that shouldn’t belong to her swelling on her tongue. She wants to cry. She wants to run away and hide and never show her face again. But she has duties she needs to see to, cats to address. ”When I went to talk with Gingerstar this morning, just to ask him some simple questions, I entered his den to find him dead. Laying on his nest stiff and cold. I thought- I thought that couldn’t be possible- he’d been fine the night before so unless he’d been- unless he’d been murdered there was no way.” She hates the way her voice catches when she says ‘murdered’, hates the way the screaming mantra in her brain starts trying to tell her she did it, it’s her fault.

”I talked to- I talked to Falconfeather. He said that there’s no evidence he was murdered. No trace of poison, no external blows. It’s his heart that killed him. He can- Falcon can tell you better than I can.” And she shoots a desperate look to her older brother, begging for help, begging for him to come up here and talk to them himself, tell them what he found. There’s a paranoia eating at her mind, at her heart, and she can’t make it shut up. Maybe she should ask for some poppy seed… Will they all hate her? Will they blame her? Will they think this is some sort of cover up? She doesn’t want to think about it, can’t get the mantra out of her head. She’s not ready for this.

CinnamonSwirl's eyes widened in shock. GingerStar...is dead! They blinked, still reeling with shock. They suddenly remebered LarkWIng, their little sister, had just been made deputy. CinnamonSwirl glanced around and heard a cat, AntlerBlizzard, yowl that LarkWing killed GingerStar. They stormed to the cat "My sister would do no such thing! Shut your mouth and stay quiet while the cat with actual logic explain!" They said to the black and white striped cat with anger. They marched away and stormed over to their sisters side. "I will protect you, Lark." They said, sitting next her sister, for support. They didn't give a damn if this was unformal or against the rules, they would stay by their sisters side, even if they were dying.

His tail lashed irritably at the mention of Riverclan. It was a small comfort at least that if he was being taken with, it probably wasn't a diplomatic mission. No groveling to those fish-cats today. But if it was just them three, it probably wasn't a battle either.
Well this has the potential to be interesting or frustrating. The tom wrinkled his nose in agreement at Violetfreckle's voiced disgust, turning to Bumblestar. "I am too. Why're we paying those kelp-smellers a visit?"

The dark lilac tabby had just been gently snoring in the warrior's den. She couldn't explain it, but the moment she heard her name called by Bumblestar, she felt pulled back to the waking world without a shred of drowsiness. She took a moment to turn around and groom her unruly fur, but eventually hurried out to meet the light-furred feline. "Gingerstar?" She asked, unable to hide the small bit of disgust from her voice. SHe sighed. "Alright, I'm ready."

"I promised Gingerstar a visit at the Gathering," Bumblestar grunted as the pair turned up, only half-glancing at Hivesnarl. "I want answers 'n he's giving 'em to me whether he likes it or not. Strap in, we got a bit of a walk ahead of us. Let's go."

RiverClan's territory was just as long of a trek as before, but at least this time she knew the straight way forward, so they could shed a little bit of time. Hopefully her companions weren't too exhausted by the time they arrived.

Seems they showed up at a bad time, though. As Bumblestar stepped into the camp with her patrol in tow, her eyes flickered toward the meeting stone, and a frown tugged at her lips. How disgustingly inconvenient.

"Condolences for your loss," she called out flatly as she stopped near the edge of the crowd. "Always a shame when a leader's gone too soon. I'd come 'round here hoping to ask him a question, but maybe you'll know the same he did."

[poppy]

cw: heavy emotional distress, vomit, panic
Birdpaw

Paws shook as she stared at the diluted deputy, the world spinning but her body rigid. Pleading with those cruel, cold stars. She couldn't lose him. She had already lost her other dad. She had already lost her sister. Her niece. Her best friends. Her crush. Face drained of blood as she looked up at Larkwing. Then, the deputy spoke, and every word was like claws ripping into her flesh, burning, searing disbelief crashing through her. No. No.

No. She felt someone screaming, she heard someone screaming, but the scream was far too broken, far too agonized to be her, right? She couldn't imagine anyone being in that much pain. Sounding that broken and not being dead or immobile with grief and pain. But her mouth was open. Those were her sobbing, incoherent howls, weren't they? Those where her claws digging deep into the earth, those were her legs once again becoming jelly, that was her body crumpling against the ground, wasn't it?

Everything came back into focus, and she was on the ground, body so shaken with sobs that she couldn't breathe, she couldn't stand, her body was spasming so much. When her voice came back, it was a simple wail, a sound so deep in her stomach that she felt blackness edge her vision. "NO-" Vomit came up in her mouth and she forced it back down, small snow and blue form hunched over and shaking as if she was in -20 degree weather, surrounded by snow and wind.

Her emotional torment for the world to see, every tear and word that escaped her was a spectacle, her immense pain wasn't theirs to witness, it should have been an intimate, private realization when she found out that her mentor, her father, yet another cat who she loved was dead. But like always, Birdpaw was granted the gift of privacy. She wasn't given the opportunity to be recognized as someone close to him. She was considered just apart of the crowd of apathetic Clanmates who already spoke about moving on, not someone who had trained under the tom for literal seasons and grown to be family to him. She felt ignored. She felt forgotten. She felt agonized. She felt sick.

She was unable to acknowledge her sister or the kit that approached her, chokes and wheezes, desperate for air, desperate for this to be a dream, not even noticing their words. Reaching out for Blueberrypaw with a paw so shaky that she could only lift it inches off the ground, the ragdoll turned to fix a burning sapphire glare on some entitled ASSHOLE who came into their camp at their most vulnerable. An intelligent cat would wait for a patrol at the border, but the ThunderClan leader, some wannabe Dawnstar, had come into their camp. The normally softspoken, kind molly bared her teeth at the leader, but she couldn't care less about anything. She found the strength deep in her core to lift herself to her paws, wanting to sprint to the den, sprint to her father and mentor's side, but just found herself falling pathetically again.

Bitterness and horrible anguish filled her. Always a spectacle, her emotional torture was never hers to bear, was never a private moment. First Kestrelstar, then Silversnow, then Kestrelskies, now her dad. She was never allowed to grieve in privacy, the torment of losing loved once was always something that the indifferent cats around her got to witness. Tears poured down her face so heavily that she was sure that she would flood the camp once more with her grief alone, shielding her face in an attempt to hide her agony and humiliation from those around her.

But her dad, her mentor, was gone. He was gone.

((Open Booboo bears ;P)) Charredkit saw one of the apprentices crying and walked over. "M-miss..? Don't cry... It makes me sad when other cats cry." Sootpelt had soon followed after and been sat beside Charredkit.
"This death has negatively impacted everyone. But we need to keep moving forward. That's what Gingerstar would want. And if you want to cry, feel free to come and cry to me later. I'll always be open for being a shoulder to cry on." She nuzzled Berrypaw slightly to show she is also sad about the death. Charredkit nuzzled Berrypaw too, slightly sad that Gingerstar was dead. He knew what Sootpelt had said was true, but he wanted to comfort Berrypaw a bit more and help her. He knew what grief was- he felt it when his old twolegnest burnt down. But he had to get on with life. The only way to do that was to stay calm and keep trying hard. So he decided to comfort Berrypaw throughout the time in Riverclan he would spend- regardless of how long it may be.

That feeling she had earlier was right on the mark, she knew something was up and that this wasn't a normal meeting. Everyone was coming up with varying rays of emotion as they sat and waited. Now they had the answer as to why Larky seemed so nervous and afraid. Frankly, The torbie wouldn't blame her for her action because she too would be afraid. How else could you tell the clan that a recently made leader just up and ascended to starclan? Nothing came out of her mouth just yet, she wasn't sure what to say since she had thought Gingerstar would have lasted longer than beansprout. Ears flicked over to just catch someone accusing Larky of murder, did she just hear that correctly? "What just came outta your ugly mouth?" she snarled approaching the older warrior. She could care less about them being older or bigger than her, she didn't sit down for others bad-mouthing ones she liked. "Take it back or I'll show you what a murder can and will look like!" she hissed. "I'll gut you here and now!" she wasn't going to sit there and let a nobody accuse Lark of anything without any visible truth. She barely paid any attention to the fact that a stupid leader from another clan just waltzed into their camp like they owned the place.

Gingerstar...had mysteriously died in his nest...how strange though Falconflight didn't really know Gingerstar he did respect him so he bowed his head at the news though he felt a twinge of suspicion about the sudden death murder perhaps?

Lifting his head up again he turned his fiery gaze to his sister...she seemed nervous...she hadn't even been deputy for a moon and know she was in this position no matter he'd support her and his brother they were his best friends after all.

Trying to give Larkwing a reassuring smile the grey tabby hoped that no cat would have a fit of rage or lash out cause if they did...he'd put them in their place and get them to immediately apologise to his kin and make sure they were sincere but thankfully all cats seemed to respect Lark.

But the somewhat peaceful atmosphere didn't last as soon as the Thunderclan fox-heart of a leader strode into the clearing like she owned the place her lackies tagging along.

A snarl formed on the warrior's face as he quickly rose to his paws and attemped to take a defensive position in front of the deputy, well leader, being extremely wary of Bumblestar what if she tried to attack Lark?! No! That wouldn't happen!

Glaring scornfully at the Thunderclanner he flashed sharp fangs "Back off Bumblestar your not welcome here" he warned coldly, glancing at his sister with concerned but obedient eyes.

He'd attack Bumblestar in a second if she tried anything, he wasn't a good fighter but was determined, but for now he only wanted to protect his sister she was Riverclan's only chance and one of the cats closest to him.

Well. He was late. He'd scented ThunderClan nearby the entrance and had gotten rather concerned. Although as he walked in that concern spiked through the roof. Oh it looks like Gingerfrost was too sleepy for this meeting...although he was unsure why Bumblestar and a pair of lackies decided to join. A concerned gaze going from the pair of High Ranks as he tried to figure out what exactly was going on.

The trek to RiverClan's camp was agonizingly long, anxiety gnawing at Violetfreckle's stomach at every pawstep. Stronger than this nervousness, though, was curiosity. Was the Clan in better shape than when she left? They were one hell of a hot mess, and Violetfreckle wouldn't be surprised if the Clan still was. Aaaaand her thoughts were confirmed as she stepped into camp, a sick wave of nostalgia nearly knocking her off her paws. Cats were wailing and crying, Violetfreckle didn't know how to react. So, she simply stood at Bumblestar's side, leaning in just close enough that her pelt brushed the other. Something about it was comforting.

Ripplekit snapped her head to the new cat's voice. She gasped hugely. A rogue?? A band of rogues?? She gasped even louder, intentionally. What was this? She heard cats whispering and snarling, noticed their fur fluffing out. BUMBLESTAR???? THIS WAS THE GREAT AND MIGHTY THUNDERCLAN LEEEEAAAAADDDEEERRRR???? Her eyes widened in shock, and she bristled, puffing her chest out proudly. This was her chance to defend her clan! She stomped forward to the front of the group, nearer to the Thunderclan leader, ignoring Badgerkit's (if any) cries asking her to stop. When she finished marching up to Bumblestar, she 'hmmphed' loudly. "So, you're the Thunderclan leader? Well guess what! If you want to hurt Riverclan, you'll have to feel my wrath! Watch me, Bumblebestie, as I super duper destroy you!" she said, snapping her teeth at the air as she danced around the feline, clawing at the air. "Oh yeah, I'm the greatest defender, oh yeah, can't touch me, oh yeah, too good! Watch, Bumblebestie!" She laughed as she continued to prance around the cat, scratching the ground and jumping at times. Finally, after finishing her little dance, she settled down and sat, licking her fur down. "Don't worry guys, I definitely scared her off!" she said, smiling hugely. She had frightened the Thunderclan leader! What an achievement! She slowly padded back to where she had been, whispering to Badgerbestie. "Bestie, did you see what I did to that menacing monster? I scared her off! I protected our clan!"

[ open for interactions. @/ the thunderclanners near the end.]


rushwater slid, confident and assured in stride, from the warriors den at the call of the deputy. not even a full moon ago, gingerfrost- star had appointed the dilute deputy to assist in leading the clan. and, while rushwater figured larkwing wasn’t the most experienced of warriors, he didn’t particularly dissagree with the decision. not a lot of trustable warriors were leaping at the prospect unless they were delusional workaholics, willing to dig themselves in the ground managing a group of felines. rushwater paused, and then chuckled to himself as if sharing a joke in his mind. workaholic? wasn’t that what he was?

regardless, the shortfurred tabby tom made his way with careful steps to sit under the floodstone, but his paws betrayed him and he nearly tripped when his eyes caught on a bundle of fur under the stone.

ah.

so that was what this meeting was all about. the faint smile previously held on his muzzle melted away, replaced with a rhadamanthine and indiscernable expression. he found his footsteps again, and located a nice place to sit to the rear of the crowd.

rushwater crained his head to get a better look at gingerstar’s corpse, and he couldn’t deny the pang of pity. gingerstar was quite young, and to see the leader nothing but a pathetic mass of cold fur under the floodstone’s looming shadow brought the immediate suspicion of foul-play. his suspicions were quickly put to rest when larkwing got to talking, and the slight prickling of his fur at the back of his neck subsided as soon as it came. he didn’t doubt she was capable of such a thing (anyone was when it came down to it: killers are more often made, not born. he’d seen and heard of the other clan’s leaders in the recent moons, he was now all but sure that absolute power corrupts absolutely) but he figured, based on her panic and uncertainty, that this had not been foul play. it was, however very unfortunate.

rushwater couldn’t speak much on gingerfrost as a leader, but from what he’d seen, at least he wasn’t lazy and idle like riverclan’s last few leaders. rushwater could respect the tom for having begun to pull riverclan out from the metaphorical muck, and could only hope larkwing would do the same. if he saw one more moon of lackadaisy authority he’d have to have his jaws tied and bound shut for all the choice words he’d have to spill.

what he wondered, though, was why a young and healthy (from what he knew, at least) tom such as gingerstar was found dead with no clear cause. something about it made his skin itch with apprehension. were riverclan cats dropping like flies now, too? he hated to admit, it wouldn’t be the most suprising thing. hell, gingerstar hadn’t even gotten many lives so it was clear that starclan had it out for the rivercats.

rushwater didn’t have time to think on it, however, because the scent of thunderclan caught his attention, and his gaze drifted to the camp entrance. a powerful she-cat with thunderclan’s stink all over her strode in with great steps. he recognized the leader instantly, but if he felt anything of suprise or hostility, his face did not betray it. think of tyranny and it shall come running, he thought mildly. rushwater’s head inclined slightly towards her as he drank up the words shared between the cats. thunderclan was here now? could this meeting be any more- for lack of a better word -dangerous?

gingerstar’s death was a pity and certainly something he’d have to think more on later, but now his undivided focus lied on the thunderclan trio now smack-dab in the middle of riverclan camp.

a yowl of “murder” from another warrior, one whom he did not remember the name of off the top of his head, split his thoughts.

how simple, rushwater criticized the warrior internally, to think this coup. clearly larkwing is as lost as the rest of us, and if it were foul play it couldn’t have been thought out well if this is how quick it all is. i call coinicidence.

or divine retriubution, he mused, finding the concept more silly than all else.


regardless, rushwater moved forwards, just hovering along the edges of the crowd and watching the thunderclanners. “i believe you’ve caught us at a particularly bad moment, bumblestar,” he observed, speaking with a level head and voice. he was simply here to keep what he can from escalating, not to point tails for muder accusations or to glower at the thunderclan warriors.

[Sklee]

Amberwing sat shot still, numb to everything around her. Useless as always, her thoughts echoed. She knew this would happen, she knew it. No leader lasted long. Not a single one in her lifetime. She didn't even budge when the Thunderclan leader entered camp.

[Saki]

Charredkit saw one of the apprentices crying and walked over. "M-miss..? Don't cry... It makes me sad when other cats cry." Sootpelt had soon followed after and been sat beside Charredkit.
"This death has negatively impacted everyone. But we need to keep moving forward. That's what Gingerstar would want. And if you want to cry, feel free to come and cry to me later. I'll always be open for being a shoulder to cry on." She nuzzled Berrypaw slightly to show she is also sad about the death. Charredkit nuzzled Berrypaw too, slightly sad that Gingerstar was dead. He knew what Sootpelt had said was true, but he wanted to comfort Berrypaw a bit more and help her. He knew what grief was- he felt it when his old twolegnest burnt down. But he had to get on with life. The only way to do that was to stay calm and keep trying hard. So he decided to comfort Berrypaw throughout the time in Riverclan he would spend- regardless of how long it may be.

Berrypaw smiled and wiped away her tears with a sniffle. She was grateful for the cats' comforting words.

A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



And here comes the stares, the questions, the concerns… Larkwing almost turns numb to them even as she’s addressed countless times. A mantra of ’your fault, your fault, your fault, your fault,’ swims around her head, vicious and cruel and she doesn’t have the strength to stop it. She doesn’t even want to stop it. This death wasn’t her fault, but she feels the weight of it pressing down on her shoulders and suddenly it’s the entire sky instead. She may as well have been the one to murder him. Not his heart, not the stars, not anything else. It may as well have been her very paw.

”Um-“ she starts, and trips over the words in her mouth immediately, a grief that shouldn’t belong to her swelling on her tongue. She wants to cry. She wants to run away and hide and never show her face again. But she has duties she needs to see to, cats to address. ”When I went to talk with Gingerstar this morning, just to ask him some simple questions, I entered his den to find him dead. Laying on his nest stiff and cold. I thought- I thought that couldn’t be possible- he’d been fine the night before so unless he’d been- unless he’d been murdered there was no way.” She hates the way her voice catches when she says ‘murdered’, hates the way the screaming mantra in her brain starts trying to tell her she did it, it’s her fault.

”I talked to- I talked to Falconfeather. He said that there’s no evidence he was murdered. No trace of poison, no external blows. It’s his heart that killed him. He can- Falcon can tell you better than I can.” And she shoots a desperate look to her older brother, begging for help, begging for him to come up here and talk to them himself, tell them what he found. There’s a paranoia eating at her mind, at her heart, and she can’t make it shut up. Maybe she should ask for some poppy seed… Will they all hate her? Will they blame her? Will they think this is some sort of cover up? She doesn’t want to think about it, can’t get the mantra out of her head. She’s not ready for this.

Brightnight gave a soothing purr to her kits as she solemly gazed at Larkwing. Hoping the she-catw ould catch her mouthing. "Your doing fine"

[SeonghwasBunnyEars]

"I promised Gingerstar a visit at the Gathering," Bumblestar grunted as the pair turned up, only half-glancing at Hivesnarl. "I want answers 'n he's giving 'em to me whether he likes it or not. Strap in, we got a bit of a walk ahead of us. Let's go."

RiverClan's territory was just as long of a trek as before, but at least this time she knew the straight way forward, so they could shed a little bit of time. Hopefully her companions weren't too exhausted by the time they arrived.

Seems they showed up at a bad time, though. As Bumblestar stepped into the camp with her patrol in tow, her eyes flickered toward the meeting stone, and a frown tugged at her lips. How disgustingly inconvenient.

"Condolences for your loss," she called out flatly as she stopped near the edge of the crowd. "Always a shame when a leader's gone too soon. I'd come 'round here hoping to ask him a question, but maybe you'll know the same he did."

The mixed voices around the clan was nothing more than a cacophony of sound. It rattled around in Larkwing’s head, threatening to make her nauseous. The thyme from little Tansypaw was welcome, though, and she smiled a little tensely but nonetheless gratefully to the young medic, quickly lapping up the herb and returning her attention to her clan. An agonized cry reached her ears, screaming worse than she’d ever thought possible… birdpaw. It was only now that Larkwing realized perhaps she should have also gone to the young molly when she had gone to Mumblepaw. Allowed both of them time to grieve privately. But she could not change what had already been done.

There was so much noise… but she took a deep breath and tried to collect herself. ’Don’t show weakness, don’t show fear, steal yourself - you are as much a symbol for how the clan should react as any cat has ever been,’ she tells herself as green eyes glance around the cats gathered. Some are openly challenging her - she figured that would happen, though, so as disheartening as it is to see, the tortoiseshell isn’t actually all that surprised… they’re just echoing her own worries. One - Antlerblizzard she thinks? Antler something in any case, so she’d just call them Antler in her head for now, openly and furiously, screamed that she had murdered Gingerstar. Others, though, have shared that they are on her side. That, at the very least is encouraging. She noticed, specifically, a certain young apprentice immediately jump to defend her from the calls of murder. ”Springpaw,” she addressed, ”thank you, really, but that’s not necessary,” cats would feel about this however their head and their hearts inclined, she couldn’t fault them for their first thoughts, but it was nice to know so many were ready to defend her.

”As I just said,” she begins when questions start coming about how this death could have happened, mildly annoyed that they didn’t listen the first time around. Sure, her presence isn’t the largest or most commanding, but surely it’s enough that they’d listen to her. ”Falconfeather nor I found any trace of external injuries, nor any signs of poisoning such as foaming at the mouth or drool like one of you mentioned. You can hear from him yourself if you really must, but I’m telling the truth.”

She’s about to say something else, something along the lines of how she wanted to do her best to lead them, but how she’d want their permission to do so, and in the event they granted it, she’d need someone to go to the Seastones with as (shameful as it probably may be to admit such a thing) she’d never been before. She was about to say all that, when Bumblestar of all cats waltzed into camp like she owned the place. Ignoring how the squirrel’s leader somehow managed to even find their new camp, Larkwing wasn’t exactly fond of the leader, the loss of Cattail Pond and subsequent death of Beansprout still a fresh memory, moons old as it may already be.

”Bumblestar,” the molly says, unable to keep the hiss from her voice or stop the way her tail lashed once behind her. Just when she thought she had no one to direct her anger over Gingerstar’s death at, a target unwittingly showed her scared face. Jumping down from the Floodstone, Larkwing began towards the ThunderClan leader, making absolutely no effort to hide her distain. One kit even was boasting and threatening, though she was not very intimidating. Larkwing almost wanted to smile at him, but she held her expression in displeasure.

”Stand down, all of you,” she ordered her clan, with a very pointed glance at Ripplekit as she reached a paw over and tried to move her back a few paces. None of them were to attack unless provoked. The ThunderClan patrol was heavily outnumbered here in RiverClan’s camp, but Larkwing didn’t much fancy meeting the claws of Bumblestar in battle. ”To what do we owe the pleasure, Bumblestar?” Larkwing asked, the pleasantry feeling like sand in her mouth. She really wanted these cats gone as soon as possible, so whatever this was about, it had better be good.

Cats... so many cats anger and they werent letting him get close to his Dada! Otterkit cowered, stopping in place as Lilyleaf, Cloudheart and Dunepaw drew close. These were new cats and the tiny kit didnt know them! They were big and scary and he just wanted to get close to his Dada so Dada could protect him and cuddle him and make things ok!

The kitten shivered in place, surrounded by these cats and his already watery eyes welled with real tears and the scrap sobbed, throat welling up as he shivered. Otterkit didnt care they were offering help or play or anything they were scary and not his dads! Wide blue eyes screwed shut and the kitten buried his sobbing face in his paws in a futile attempt to 'protect himself' and he whimpered under his breath. "Dada! Papa! Im scared! Help! Wake up! They wont let me near! I wanna cuddle! I wanna hide! Please wake up!"
Not that anyone could hear this, with how swollen his throat was with terror it was inaudible through his sobbing and distressed mewling.

It was impossible to tell who's kit he was, he didnt even smell like riverclan yet being only in the clan for three days and he'd met but one cat in this time, spending the rest hiding due to fear. All that was clear was the crowding was not helping nor was the anger and fear in the air with the thunderclan leaders arrival.

It'd be a reasonable thing to take him to the nursery, even if it wasnt the right thing. If only he could talk properly and loudly enough to be heard.

Rabbitkit and Blossomkit listened. They wonderd why Bumblestar was in their camp. She needed to go back to HER camp and leave theirs!

Wishkit listened. Hopefully Bumbletstar would be gone soon because she didn't belong in RiverClan's camp.
Toadkit listened. She wondered why Bumblestar was in their camp. Bumblestar's in ThunderClan! RiverClan is the best clan! All of the other clans are stupid!

Deerkit listened. She wondered what question Bumblestar wanted to ask Gingerstar before finding out that he was dead that was so important that she would barge into their camp to ask it and then ask it to Larkwing instead of Gingerstar when she found out that Gingerstar had just died.

Beekit was sniffing next to the nice soft small-cat bundle of fur when she smelled a strange cat-smell. It smelled extra strange, stranger then all of the other strange cat-smells. She ignored the extra weird scent and kept memorizing all of the cat-scents, including the extra weird one.

[Starii]

Leafkit peeked into the clearing staring at the meeting, that's when she heard Larkwing say the words she clearly understood "Gingerstar is dead." WHAT!? she wimpered, no no no, this can't be true.. can it?

Post : 94


Yea...from where Sunsetpaw sat, which is quite near to the front of the crowd, there seems to be no signs of any injuries on Gingerstar's body...so...how did he die..? Something must've happened that made him die randomly like that...if only he had even a single extra life then maybe he would've still been here. Well, what has happened had happened and there's no way to revert time. His heart killed him. That could mean either two things; either he got a sickness of some sorts or...he had a heart attack. The latter made more sense. His Heart killed him, it had to be a heart attack, right? It made more and more sense as they thought about it. A highrank is usually a position that includes stress and tins of work. Perhaps that stress got him...and killed him. Would that had happen to Stonepaw if the former medicine cat didn't resign...? They never heard of a leader dying because of a heart attack...but..the things that had happened to riverclan..and the fact that he appointed Beansprout as leader instead of taking the role himself...he maybe..wasn't able to handle the leader position; maybe he really wasn't ready yet..but he probably had no other choice but to take the role after what happened with Beansprout and then he died because of it....? What was Gingerstar's first reaction when he first got appointed as deputy of the past leader..Pikestar, right? Was he shocked or worried or such..?

This meeting is starting to get confusing now. While Sunsetpaw was off with her thoughts, suddenly the leader of thunderclan strolled into camp just like that. Wha-w-what...? What was she doing here..? Oh...right....wait but Gingerstar's already dead so she can't talk to him! On top of that, how did Bumblestar just...found their camp like that...? Riverclan hasn't been here for too long so how did she do that...? Did someone lead her here...? If so, that's...Sunsetpaw didn't know what to think of that. First, Gingerstar died and now Bumblestar popped into their camp like what?? Their eyes focused on the thunder-leader, confusion rising even more in them. "U-uhm.." they quietly said. What do they do now..? Just sit like that..? They feel like they should be doing something but what?? Goodness this is starting to get more and more confusing. Larkwing is handling it herself so maybe it was better for them to just shut their mouth and not say anything for now...

They just want Bumblestar and her patrol to go back to her own camp. The thunder patrol isn't supposed to be here anyway...it was rude that they just walked in their camp when the patrol could've waited at the border. Or maybe they did but Gingerstar didn't come because...yea. They didn't like how Bumblestar said her part either. They silently closed their eyes. When things are starting to go well, it all fell down into whatever this mess was.

They reopened their eyes, gaze moving towards the sky. The clouds that casted over parts of the blue sky. They wondered a few things as they ignored whatever was currently happening as they view the clouds above. They wanted to keep paying attention but it was hard to do so right now. They also wondered what Bumblestar could possibly wanted ask Gingerstar. What was so important that made her want to tresspass not only into the territory but also into the camp. They didn't really like Bumblestar that much. This didn't help at all. Someone must've led her here..how else could she know where the camp was..? Was riverclan camp now at risk of getting attacked in the future now that Bumblestar knew where it was..? Any potential invasion she can easily lead straight to camp because she knows where it is, making the camp not as save as it would've normally been. Would she do that..? If she ever actually invade the camp, then the clan might have a little problem...no, not little problem. Horribly big. The camp has kits and apprentices and injured cats and cats who wouldn't really be able to fight that well.

Sunsetpaw shook their head, attention going back to what was happening. Their gaze went from one cat to another cat; unsure of who to pay attention to really. Their main focus was Larkwing and Bumblestar but Bumblestar hasn't answered Larkwing yet. What could possibly be this important question that made Bumblestar go all the way to camp? How did she find the camp to begin with..? It didn't make sense. Their gaze soon drifted over to Gingerstar's lifeless body. Maybe...just maybe if they knew then they could've helped a little...or...maybe no...maybe they wouldn't have had much impact, if any. Maybe they wouldn't really have much impact of most things like this in the end. Maybe they couldn't have helped with anything. In fact, what it they accidentally made situations worse..?

(Yeah, sure! Considering that Charredkit used to be called Matthew and his twolegnest was burnt down, it'd make for extra lore!) Charredkit knew that helping others was a good thing to do and so he decided to be a helper around camp when he wasn't learning or playing with the other kits.

Sootpelt seemed to have left the camp again, and appeared to be talking to three outsiders that had been trying to sneak in due to a fear of being caught by William. Turned out to be three kits, with the names of 'Chocolate', 'vanilla' and 'Strawberry'. Probably cos they were in a Neapolitan ice cream tub when Sootpelt found them. Silly kits, they hadn't thought about their hiding space well enough.

"I promised Gingerstar a visit at the Gathering," Bumblestar grunted as the pair turned up, only half-glancing at Hivesnarl. "I want answers 'n he's giving 'em to me whether he likes it or not. Strap in, we got a bit of a walk ahead of us. Let's go."

RiverClan's territory was just as long of a trek as before, but at least this time she knew the straight way forward, so they could shed a little bit of time. Hopefully her companions weren't too exhausted by the time they arrived.

Seems they showed up at a bad time, though. As Bumblestar stepped into the camp with her patrol in tow, her eyes flickered toward the meeting stone, and a frown tugged at her lips. How disgustingly inconvenient.

"Condolences for your loss," she called out flatly as she stopped near the edge of the crowd. "Always a shame when a leader's gone too soon. I'd come 'round here hoping to ask him a question, but maybe you'll know the same he did."

Winterpaw
(Image by Pangoligon)

Bumblestar. Strange time for her to appear, just after the announcement of Gingerstar's death. "IT'S NOT LARKWING," he yelled over the chaos, "IT WAS BUMBLESTAR!" The sudden accusation of the ThunderClan leader was the random appearance of her. She managed to find the camp, out of nowhere. This was an obvious answer in his opinion as if she knew where camp was, she could have killed Gingerstar and have aaalll the blame piled on Larkwing, then have Larkwing removed from her position. No leader, all chaos. Chaos makes it easier to beat Clans. That couldn't happen, so he'd stop the leader in her tracks. The, uh.... non-existent tracks.

H-huh?? Why was Winterpaw suddenly yelling out like that!? What was he yelling about?? Gingerstar's death?? Is he accusing Bumblestar of Gingerstar's death?? "I..i thought he died by a heart attack because..uh..y'know...Larkwing said his heart killed him so kinda make sense...?" they quietly mewed, unsure if the tom actually heard them or not. They didn't like the sudden anger that shot off of him. No, no, not at all. "No one murdered him..." they explained in the same quiet tone. Will Winterpaw yell at them if he hears them disagree to what he just said just now..? From the times the two has interacted..it seems likely that that'll happen. Bumblestar did tell Gingerstar that she wanted to talk to him so it wouldn't make sense. They weren't trying to defend Bumblestar, they didn't like the she-cat either. But they rather think of what makes more sense...to them at least. There wasn't much cats in the crowd who accused Larkwing so she should be fine

Falconfeather
medicine cat

He'd wished everyone would just shut up, just shut the hell up. Loud. Loud voices, yelling, crying, screaming. His senses were at an overload as he sat, trying to make sense of it all. His claws dug deep in the packed earth of the camp floor, as if he would be swept away by the flood of noises, trying his best to root himself anyway he could. Everything was too loud, he couldn't even hear his own thoughts/ So when little Jackdawkit came scurrying to Falconfeather, cowering down in fear and confusion, he felt a purr rumbling in his throat, his tension easing away at the sight of the little kid. He felt the slight need to protect her, shower her away from evils of the world. The healer bent his head down and licked her head gently, assuring her that it would be okay. His big tail wrapped around the little black-furred kit as he soothed her.

Then his eyes caught sight of Shatterpaw, tears shedding down his little brother's face as the tortie tom swiftly came towards Falcon, stopping in front of him. He smiles sadly at him, looking down at Jackdawkit as his half-sibling asks him if he could help. "Take this one back to her mother, or father, or whoever, or the nursery, she needn't to see this," In truth, nobody needed to witness death, it was all something that nature had simple made to put sorrow and fear and distraction in there hearts and minds, making them weak. Yet, he knew death was required, it was inevitable. Nature itself needed death to thrive, to replenish. StarClan never cared who'd they struck down, it didn't matter to them. Not paying attention to see if Shatterpaw obliged to Falcon's request, he leaves the kit with the apprentice and turns to get closer to the Floodstone, enough where he could jump up when needed.

He catches the soft chocolate hues of Tansypaw flash up towards Larkwing with concern and then back and him before disappearing in the lichen of the medicine den before she emerges back out, carrying a small stalk of thyme her her jaws. His nose twitches at the familiar, sharp scent of the herb as his apprentice brushes past him to leap up nimbly atop the Floodstone, exchanging a couple of hushed whispers with the now leader before giving her the thyme and jumping off, coming to sit beside him. He gives her a small nod of approval, wishing he would've thought of it earlier. Before he could say anything to her, the small, curious voice of Habit reaches his ears. Falcon blinks in confusion and then looks down at the kit, who's wide green eyes bored into him with curiousity. "Um..well, our leader has died, so we need to announce it." He didn't really knwo whether or not Habit understood the concept of death, but Falcon only knew how to be blunt about it.

Ah, there it was. Larkwing's words reached his ears quickly and he nodded. "Tansy, watch this one for me, Larkwing needs me up there, please." He didn't wait for her to say yes as the healer prepares himself to take the leap upward, and when he does, he lands somewhat awkwardly, twisting his paw slightly. ".. stars damned.." He groans lowly, gingerly testing his paw on the ground. It was sore and it hurt but he'd be fine, nothing he couldn't tolerate. Grumbling under his breath, Falconfeather gave a small nod and planned on whispering to Larkwing, "Just take a breath, calm down." Before somebody had to walk on like she owned the place. His fur stood up as ThunderRat scent reached his nose, whipping around to see just what it was. Great, just freaking great. The small figure of Bumblestar and two others he hadn't the time nor want to know of stood at the entrance. As much as he wanted to jump back down and give the RatClan leader a couple more scars to pretty herself up with and go along with her face, the healer restrained himself, yet his fury and aggiation was shown blantly by his tail lashing and his teeth clamped tightly together. Green eyes glanced lightly towards his sister as she spoke to the other Clan's leader, jumping down from her post before focusing on Bumblestar. Falconfeather stood still atop of the Floodstone, watching the clan from above. "Yes, Bumblestar, what may we assist you with? I hope you can't see from this meeting that we have something important going on, so what crap you need to spout, then do tell, otherwise move along." Was being hostile to another clan's leader the right thing? Hell no, but he didn't care.

Lotusheart was heartbroken. She felt a million pieces of her soul shatter and embedd into her chest. The tears quickly followed. Had she made a mistake coming back here? Returned to RiverClan and her best friend just to watch him die? Could she have saved him? Quietly and without a fuss, the massive white cat shrunk, shoving her face into her paws and curling up to cry in peace. Perhaps this was all a mistake. Coming here. Perhaps she never should have left! Then at least she could have spent more time with him. She'd miss his grumpy face and his begrudging but radiant genuine compliments and the comfortable feeling if being next to each other.

cw: heavy emotional distress, vomit, panic
Birdpaw

Paws shook as she stared at the diluted deputy, the world spinning but her body rigid. Pleading with those cruel, cold stars. She couldn't lose him. She had already lost her other dad. She had already lost her sister. Her niece. Her best friends. Her crush. Face drained of blood as she looked up at Larkwing. Then, the deputy spoke, and every word was like claws ripping into her flesh, burning, searing disbelief crashing through her. No. No.

No. She felt someone screaming, she heard someone screaming, but the scream was far too broken, far too agonized to be her, right? She couldn't imagine anyone being in that much pain. Sounding that broken and not being dead or immobile with grief and pain. But her mouth was open. Those were her sobbing, incoherent howls, weren't they? Those where her claws digging deep into the earth, those were her legs once again becoming jelly, that was her body crumpling against the ground, wasn't it?

Everything came back into focus, and she was on the ground, body so shaken with sobs that she couldn't breathe, she couldn't stand, her body was spasming so much. When her voice came back, it was a simple wail, a sound so deep in her stomach that she felt blackness edge her vision. "NO-" Vomit came up in her mouth and she forced it back down, small snow and blue form hunched over and shaking as if she was in -20 degree weather, surrounded by snow and wind.

Her emotional torment for the world to see, every tear and word that escaped her was a spectacle, her immense pain wasn't theirs to witness, it should have been an intimate, private realization when she found out that her mentor, her father, yet another cat who she loved was dead. But like always, Birdpaw was granted the gift of privacy. She wasn't given the opportunity to be recognized as someone close to him. She was considered just apart of the crowd of apathetic Clanmates who already spoke about moving on, not someone who had trained under the tom for literal seasons and grown to be family to him. She felt ignored. She felt forgotten. She felt agonized. She felt sick.

She was unable to acknowledge her sister or the kit that approached her, chokes and wheezes, desperate for air, desperate for this to be a dream, not even noticing their words. Reaching out for Blueberrypaw with a paw so shaky that she could only lift it inches off the ground, the ragdoll turned to fix a burning sapphire glare on some entitled ASSHOLE who came into their camp at their most vulnerable. An intelligent cat would wait for a patrol at the border, but the ThunderClan leader, some wannabe Dawnstar, had come into their camp. The normally softspoken, kind molly bared her teeth at the leader, but she couldn't care less about anything. She found the strength deep in her core to lift herself to her paws, wanting to sprint to the den, sprint to her father and mentor's side, but just found herself falling pathetically again.

Bitterness and horrible anguish filled her. Always a spectacle, her emotional torture was never hers to bear, was never a private moment. First Kestrelstar, then Silversnow, then Kestrelskies, now her dad. She was never allowed to grieve in privacy, the torment of losing loved once was always something that the indifferent cats around her got to witness. Tears poured down her face so heavily that she was sure that she would flood the camp once more with her grief alone, shielding her face in an attempt to hide her agony and humiliation from those around her.

But her dad, her mentor, was gone. He was gone.

BlueberryPaw’s ears were filled by an agonizing, broken scream coming from, surprisingly, her sister. BlueberryPaw’s eyes filled with terror as their sister spasmed on the ground. What was this!? ”FALCONFEATHER!? TANSYPAW!?” She yelled in a desperate attempt to get something to sooth her sister even a bit, scared out of her mind. Was their sister dying!? Was this a panic or anxiety attack!? All these deaths had broken her beloved sister. They watched as Birdie reached a shaky paw to theirs. BlueberryPaw crouched down. ”Shhh! It’s ok! I’m here Birdie! I’m here!” She whispered, swallowing down her urge to cry. They hated seeing their sister so broken. Stars, Birdie’s lost so much and too much…

*-Larkwing-*
She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



The mixed voices around the clan was nothing more than a cacophony of sound. It rattled around in Larkwing’s head, threatening to make her nauseous. The thyme from little Tansypaw was welcome, though, and she smiled a little tensely but nonetheless gratefully to the young medic, quickly lapping up the herb and returning her attention to her clan. An agonized cry reached her ears, screaming worse than she’d ever thought possible… birdpaw. It was only now that Larkwing realized perhaps she should have also gone to the young molly when she had gone to Mumblepaw. Allowed both of them time to grieve privately. But she could not change what had already been done.

There was so much noise… but she took a deep breath and tried to collect herself. ’Don’t show weakness, don’t show fear, steal yourself - you are as much a symbol for how the clan should react as any cat has ever been,’ she tells herself as green eyes glance around the cats gathered. Some are openly challenging her - she figured that would happen, though, so as disheartening as it is to see, the tortoiseshell isn’t actually all that surprised… they’re just echoing her own worries. One - Antlerblizzard she thinks? Antler something in any case, so she’d just call them Antler in her head for now, openly and furiously, screamed that she had murdered Gingerstar. Others, though, have shared that they are on her side. That, at the very least is encouraging. She noticed, specifically, a certain young apprentice immediately jump to defend her from the calls of murder. ”Springpaw,” she addressed, ”thank you, really, but that’s not necessary,” cats would feel about this however their head and their hearts inclined, she couldn’t fault them for their first thoughts, but it was nice to know so many were ready to defend her.

”As I just said,” she begins when questions start coming about how this death could have happened, mildly annoyed that they didn’t listen the first time around. Sure, her presence isn’t the largest or most commanding, but surely it’s enough that they’d listen to her. ”Falconfeather nor I found any trace of external injuries, nor any signs of poisoning such as foaming at the mouth or drool like one of you mentioned. You can hear from him yourself if you really must, but I’m telling the truth.”

She’s about to say something else, something along the lines of how she wanted to do her best to lead them, but how she’d want their permission to do so, and in the event they granted it, she’d need someone to go to the Seastones with as (shameful as it probably may be to admit such a thing) she’d never been before. She was about to say all that, when Bumblestar of all cats waltzed into camp like she owned the place. Ignoring how the squirrel’s leader somehow managed to even find their new camp, Larkwing wasn’t exactly fond of the leader, the loss of Cattail Pond and subsequent death of Beansprout still a fresh memory, moons old as it may already be.

”Bumblestar,” the molly says, unable to keep the hiss from her voice or stop the way her tail lashed once behind her. Just when she thought she had no one to direct her anger over Gingerstar’s death at, a target unwittingly showed her scared face. Jumping down from the Floodstone, Larkwing began towards the ThunderClan leader, making absolutely no effort to hide her distain. One kit even was boasting and threatening, though he was not very intimidating. Larkwing almost wanted to smile at him, but she held her expression in displeasure.

”Stand down, all of you,” she ordered her clan, with a very pointed glance at ripplekit as she reached a paw over and tried to move him back a few paces. None of them were to attack unless provoked. The ThunderClan patrol was heavily outnumbered here in RiverClan’s camp, but Larkwing didn’t much fancy meeting the claws of Bumblestar in battle. ”To what do we owe the pleasure, Bumblestar?” Larkwing asked, the pleasantry feeling like sand in her mouth. She really wanted these cats gone as soon as possible, so whatever this was about, it had better be good.

Cinnamonswirl glanced in the direction of the squirrel patrol. They wanted to bare their teeth at the cats but held back, for the sake of their little sister. They stayed next to LarkWing however, refusing to leave her alone and leave her unprotected, especially now.

Cats... so many cats anger and they werent letting him get close to his Dada! Otterkit cowered, stopping in place as Lilyleaf, Cloudheart and Dunepaw drew close. These were new cats and the tiny kit didnt know them! They were big and scary and he just wanted to get close to his Dada so Dada could protect him and cuddle him and make things ok!

The kitten shivered in place, surrounded by these cats and his already watery eyes welled with real tears and the scrap sobbed, throat welling up as he shivered. Otterkit didnt care they were offering help or play or anything they were scary and not his dads! Wide blue eyes screwed shut and the kitten buried his sobbing face in his paws in a futile attempt to 'protect himself' and he whimpered under his breath. "Dada! Papa! Im scared! Help! Wake up! They wont let me near! I wanna cuddle! I wanna hide! Please wake up!"
Not that anyone could hear this, with how swollen his throat was with terror it was inaudible through his sobbing and distressed mewling.

It was impossible to tell who's kit he was, he didnt even smell like riverclan yet being only in the clan for three days and he'd met but one cat in this time, spending the rest hiding due to fear. All that was clear was the crowding was not helping nor was the anger and fear in the air with the thunderclan leaders arrival.

It'd be a reasonable thing to take him to the nursery, even if it wasnt the right thing. If only he could talk properly and loudly enough to be heard.

LilyLeaf’s eyes softened with pity for the kit. ”CloudHeart? DunePaw? Can you back up? He seems a bit scared…” She said in a soft gentle tone. ”Hey, OtterKit? My name is LilyLeaf and I had a daughter once, you remind me of her. She wasn’t very social and didn’t like large crowds but she was bold!” She purred with a smile, thinking of MintPool. ”I want to help you and I’m not going to hurt you!” She said, softly ”I’m going to pick you up and take you to the nursery while we wait for your dads, ok?” She said.

[LilyLeaf is very capable of doing that o7]

[Dust]

After a moment of quiet deep breaths, she had finally thought she regulated herself. The shouts, cries, and yowls of nonsense were a lot to take in - it felt like some cats just weren't listening at all. Closing her eyes, her sadness and anxiety quelled momentarily, though the scent of ThunderClan overwhelmed her senses almost moments later. And then - of course Bumblestar had sauntered in at the worst time possible - the voice of the ThunderClan leader hit her eardrums. The warrior stalked forward, her hackles raised as she scanned the small patrol. There was no way they were here to cause any trouble - not with those numbers. And fighting with her healing wounds would make her dumb as a fish. So, Cherryswirl kept in place, assuming her role of "the strong warrior glaring through the crowd." As expected, Larkwing quite literally leapt to action. Cherryswirl moved to the side to allow their deputy through towards Bumble and co.

"Must have gotten lost looking for more territory to take..." She muttered under her breath - tail still lashing wildly behind her as she kept a firm gaze. Though, her concentration was ruined as another cat began squawking somewhere near her. Golden eyes turned to look at Winterpaw - who had seemed to be yowling non-stop about 'whodunit'. She managed to keep her voice calm, though there was a slight edge to it as she reached to place a paw on top the apprentices head, akin to tapping off an alarm clock - whatever that is!

"Winterpaw, shout any louder and the other clans might hear and believe you. Larkwing already told the clan what happened to Gingerstar. He wasn't killed. Wasn't poisoned. Unless you want to up and get shredded by Bumblestar yourself for making such baseless accusations then I suggest you quiet down and let those who are mourning do so in peace!" Ok, well the last half of her statement came out as an authoritative hiss. She hadn't meant to, but there really was no need for such nonsense. Cats were mourning left and right. Stars, Mumble was still mourning by Ginger's side! She turned a gaze to the resting body and son apprentice, eyes tracing upwards to where Falconfeather was standing atop the Floodstone. Seeing the medicine up there actually almost made her snort with laughter which would be totally inappropriate, so she struggled to stifle back a purr. She would make fun of him at a more appropriate time. Instead, the older warrior turned her attention back to Larkwing and Bumblestar - trying to impose that same aura as before.

Ripplekit opened her mouth in shock. Some cat had pushed her back! She fluffed out her fur and got ready to attack Randomcatbestie, when she saw it was Larkwing. Closing her mouth quickly she swallowed down any words she was about to spit out. She then tried to groom her fur, which was still sticking straight up, making her look like a wild bush. Wild bush turned around, calling for her bestie to come closer. "Badgerbestie, come on, the view here is so much better! We are gonna see Bumblebestie and Larkbestie argue about something!" she squealed, excited. Turning her attention back to the glaring Larkbestie, she thought of something else to say. Then she heard some apprentice, Winnersomething, spout accusations of Bumblebestie killing Gingerbestie. Smiling, wanting to hop onto the train joke, she squealed, laughing. "Yeahahaha, Bumblebestie, you definitely attacked Gingerbestie! But it's okay now, becuz I scared you off!" Grinning proudly, Ripplekit looked for more cats to talk to. She was bored. Then she heard some warrior scold Winnerbestie, who was the cat who claimed Bumblebestie killed Gingerbestie, Not wanting to be in the wrong, and thinking this was all one big fun game, she ran up to the two and joined in on the scolding. "Yeah! You really shouldn't do that! Cuz...um..what she said! Yeah!" Then she smiled, and, because she was too impatient to wait for a response, she started bragging. "Hey, Randomwarriorbestie, did you see me scare off Bumblebestie? Now we will be safe becuz of my amazing warrior skills!" she chirped, puffing her chest out proudly.

➤ Bitterpaw was minding his own business, ya know. Sleeping. He dreamed himself on a stony shore, one of the largest fish he had ever seen just in front of him. He lunged out a paw to catch it when some ASSHOLE started yelling. He had MISSED!!!! Angry, He got up, his maroon pelt protecting him from the breeze at the Floodstone. Somebody was going to get a piece of his mind. What was all of the commotion for anyways? Couldn't he get some rest!? As he came out, he noticed Bumblebutt in the camp for some reason. And Winterpaw was yelling that she had killed Gingerstar? Well, least one useless cat was out of the way. His face told nothing as he pushed his way through the crowd to Gingerstar's body. He took a deep inhale before turning to Winterpaw. "Can you shut THE HELL UP? Seems like no cat can get some rest with you SCREAMING YOUR head off!" he hissed sharply before turning to Larkwing. He stared hard at his mentor before speaking. "What the hell happened to make you leader," he said, slightly growling. Now nocat could ruin his sleep, or he would report them to his mentor. INFINITE REST!!!!!!

➤ As he awaited an answer, Bitterpaw couldn't help but notice Birdpaw crying her head off over their former leader's body. "Stop it," he said, intimating her sobs. "Oh boo hoo Gingerstar is dead. Deal with it. He's gone and you can't do anything now," he growled to the older apprentice, digging his claws into the ground. He then diverted his attention to bumblestar and Falconfeather. Bitterpaw shoved his way through the crowd once again and up to the ThunderClan leader. "You. What the hell are you doing in our camp. Get out of here. Now," he spat to the ThunderClan leader. He turned his head and spotted Springpaw, Spitting Death threats to another cat. He flicked his tail and gave a sharp stare to the apprentice, hoping to catch her eye.

"B-Blue-" She wheezed, chest squeezing suffocatingly with the talons of grief sinking themselves into her, making every word, every movement a struggle. Like she was wading through quicksand, her paw slowly raised to try to desperately grab hold of her sister, squeaking chokes escaping her mouth as her face twisted in a mess of tears and such emotional pain it was like she was dying that horrible, torturous death all over again.

She preferred the slow, painful death of bleeding out in her father's arms, limbs splintered and body shredded and long, gaping crimson gashes and tears in her flesh allowing her life force to spill onto the ground around them. That pain, that intense, fatal agony was a lesser evil than this. The horrible misery of watching everyone she loved die or vanish, this cruel cycle of loving and losing, was worse. It was a constant pressure, a constant agony that she was able to heal and suppress over time.


It was like every time the wound to her heart clotted and was beginning to heal, she lost someone else and the scab was ripped off, and the healing had to begin anew.


"C-can't..... b-breathe...." Her sister's words were far away, and she was inhaling and exhaling but she couldn't get enough air, she couldn't breathe, she couldn't move, her eyes were out of focus and her head was spinning. Her rattled, whirling brain felt heavy and her skull thudded against the ground as she collapsed. She couldn't do this anymore. She wanted it to be over. She wish she had never come back to life.

If only StarClan had let her stay dead. "I wish they never let me come back, it was a waste- a-a-a waste."[/I] She sobbed, unable to care for anyone around her or if they thought bad of her. "Everyone's dying and i-it hurt i-it always h-h-hurts." Curling into a fetal position, wanting her mom, wanting her dads, wanting her best friends, wanting Kes, she sobbed aloud for everyone she had lost, her body shaking and her chokes for air so broken and desperate that she wondered if she was dying. Was she dying? That didn't sound too bad.

Clutching her stomach, growing more and more sore by the moment, Birdpaw felt like all her bones were jelly. "It hurts, it hurts, I can't breathe-" There was a crueler voice behind her, and it was like everything came into focus at once. Some kid, some horrible denmate of hers mocked her intense agony, her emotional brokeness, scoffed like she was a child who had lost her toy. He was still standing over her when energy, when red hot fury pulsed through her veins and her paw shot up, slamming into his jaw. The usually gentle, kind molly was able to force herself to turn her head, teeth bared as she fought for air.

"He was my mentor for longer than you've been able to speak, he was my father, he was my friend, he was always there for me when my dad went missing and when m-my sister died and when my friends went missing and when m-my Kes died. You'd be like this too if you kept losing everything." The world was spinning again, her heart felt broken and her vision was spotty, she was still fighting for air. "It.... hurts, it hurts so bad and it's never going to stop." The last words were a feeble whisper and her paws slipped out from under her and curled back into the fetal position, sobs growing quieter but deeper, her sides heaving and entire body aching.

torbie with bright green eyes

Hivesnarl's paws were hurting. Which sucked, but wasn't a surprise given they had trekked all the way to Riverclan's camp. And ohhh, they clearly weren't expecting them. Hive huffed, a sound that was one of amusement and simultaneous frustration. How stupid was this clan, acting as if Bumbles had brought an entire war party instead of a paltry patrol of three cats. They clearly wouldn't stand a chance in battle, but from the way Riverclan was acting it's like they were seeing three Lionclan warriors instead. What a bunch of cowards.

As much as Hivesnarl wanted to drag on Riverclan all day, he did acknowledge that he, Violetfreckle, and Bumbles were at a serious disadvantage here. If this turned into a fight it would get brutal, fast, and not in their favor. Hive needed to be smart about this. Blatant antagonizing would be about the dumbest move I could make. Can't be too passive, can't be aggressive enough to incite retaliation. Looks like we're going with keeping my mouth shut then.

Hivesnarl straightened up, standing square and surveying the clan they were facing. The medicine cat was spouting out hostility, like he wanted this to turn into a fight. Hive glanced at him - Falconfeather was his name, he thought - ear giving a flick of annoyance, and turned back to wait for Bumblestar's move.

BlueberryPaw’s ears were filled by an agonizing, broken scream coming from, surprisingly, her sister. BlueberryPaw’s eyes filled with terror as their sister spasmed on the ground. What was this!? ”FALCONFEATHER!? TANSYPAW!?” She yelled in a desperate attempt to get something to sooth her sister even a bit, scared out of her mind. Was their sister dying!? Was this a panic or anxiety attack!? All these deaths had broken her beloved sister. They watched as Birdie reached a shaky paw to theirs. BlueberryPaw crouched down. ”Shhh! It’s ok! I’m here Birdie! I’m here!” She whispered, swallowing down her urge to cry. They hated seeing their sister so broken. Stars, Birdie’s lost so much and too much…

My name is LilyLeaf and I had a daughter once, you remind me of her. She wasn’t very social and didn’t like large crowds but she was bold!” She purred with a smile, thinking of MintPool. ”I want to help you and I’m not going to hurt you!” She said, softly ”I’m going to pick you up and take you to the nursery while we wait for your dads, ok?” She said.

Giving a small sniff Brightnight wrapped her tail protectively around her kits and then placed her paw in front of Cinnamonswirl with a small, hostile growl at Bumblestar and her companions. "What in Starclan's name do those rats want" Brightnight said, she was a usually soft queen but in the moment she was furious this clearly immature leader had bardged into her camp. In the middle of a meeting! And still demanding her sewer breath to be heard! Baring her teeth lightly Brightnights blue eyes turned to chip of cold charcole.

Freacklepaw caught a familiar face out of the corner of his eye, once he saw Bumblestar march into camp he scurried behind his friend. What on earth was Thunderclan doing? Why was she here? This was all getting to be too much. Shatterpaw made for a good shield, as big as he was. Frecklepaw peered out from behind him with wide eyes. There was far too much going on..


Shatterpaw comes close to Frecklepaw, laying his head against the other's. He places his tail on is best friend's shoulders, and gently leads him away from all of the chaos. Anger and hate fill his eyes, and he trembles with rage as he closes his eyes before pulling Frecklepaw close to him. The larger apprentice then begins to speak, trying to defuse his friend's situation. "What would you like to do? I know there is a place where a type of beautiful bugs and birds gather - have you ever seen a firefly?" He asks gently and kind of awkward - he is not used to being gentle.

Things just seemed to get worse and worse. Unexpectedly being handed a kit to watch over, she doesn't have a moment to protest before Falconfeather takes his place atop the Floodstone. Rounded ears flatten as she stares up at him, then she turns her attention to the young cat that he had left her with. Never met him. Didn't really have time to address him because the pained cries of Birdpaw almost immediately draw her attention. Wide eyes stare in horror as she curls up and heaves and sobs. Pure agony. Pure despair. The young medicine cat already begins her way over to the she-cat but someone beats her to the punch. Harsh words cut into her flank. Insensitive words. The words of someone who she now viewed as pure evil. He's already receding toward the commotion toward the entrance before she has a chance to rip him a new one. Maybe it was better that way. Now she could focus on the cat that actually needed the attention.

Not looking to see if Shrikekit was following her or not, she moves in to crouch beside Birdpaw, eyes filled to the brim with concern. She had to get her out of here. Get her something to help with the panic attack she was having. Tansypaw knew the feeling all too well. Being out here beside her father's corpse, being belittled by clan mates, and now the threat of Bumblestar's appearance looms uneasy. Leaning forward to nudge her with her nose, she stares at her, pleading.

"H-Hey... Why don't you come to the medicine den with me, okay? I can get you something to help you calm down... And maybe some water... A-And if you need to, you can talk to me about it. I can't do much but I can try my best to help you feel a little better."

Another anxious look is cast off in the direction of the small Thunderclan patrol speaking to Larkwing and the growing group of aggressive Riverclan cats. Getting out of here was definitely the right move. If a fight broke out, he wouldn't want the poor thing to have to defend Gingerfrost's body from any cat that might take the opportunity to do something vile. She nudges her again, but lingers this time, nose pressed into her trembling side.

"Come on. I've got you."

[ only mentioning those bumble is directly addressing ]

Bumblestar glanced at Violetfreckle out of the corner of her eye and took a miniscule step closer to her. Being back to seeing old faces was probably startling. The most she could offer right now was silent support.

The aggression that resulted from her appearance was expected, but it still made her snort. “Calm your fluff, ain’t here to start fights. You really think I’m so arrogant? If I wanted to I’d’ve brought my whole Clan with me.” [ Shadowed Flower poppy. The Dalek ]

Her attention was dragged to the kit that started dancing around her, and she resisted the urge to reach out and bat it away, knowing full-well she wouldn't get back to her own camp alive if she even moved so much as a whisker with the thing near her. "I'm terrified," she drawled. Thankfully the pipsqueak moved out of reach before she could whack it. [ spooky sleek. ]

There was, apparently, one cat here with a level head on their shoulders. She gave the cat who spoke up a half-shrug - not her problem they couldn't keep it together. [ redshiftreign ]

And of course, the obligatory murder accusation. She arched her brows at the noisy apprentice [ hex_cat ] and then at the warrior who chastised him [ Dust ], then away again as she grunted. The apprentice was an idiot - if she'd really killed Gingerstar, she wouldn't have hidden it, would she?

Finally, her new target stepped down from the rocks, and Bumblestar let her gaze flicker over whom she presumed would be RiverClan's new leader. Seemed young, which was certainly nothing to discount. She looked forward to testing this one.

Falconfeather looked young, too, and Bumblestar tilted her head slightly as she regarded him. Medicine cat, right? His words drew a snort out of her. He seemed like more fun than the leader next to him.

"Larkwing, Falconfeather." A simple greeting, flat and mostly disinterested. "I know this isn't the most opportune time to come strollin' in, but I didn't exactly expect to crash a funeral today. Apologies." It sounded the furthest thing from genuine.

Bumblestar sat down, took a moment to make a show of inspecting her claws for sand before glancing back up at Larkwing. "I caught one of your warriors this past moon planting poison at Cattail Pond. Bushy brown fur, yellow eyes. She tried to mask her scent, but didn't do a well enough job of covering her tracks, so you've got her to blame for me findin' your brand new camp. Thankfully no one's been poisoned yet, but the mere presence of it is disgusting 'n disgraceful. You know anything about this?" A sideways look at Falconfeather. ”Either of you?”

That feeling she had earlier was right on the mark, she knew something was up and that this wasn't a normal meeting. Everyone was coming up with varying rays of emotion as they sat and waited. Now they had the answer as to why Larky seemed so nervous and afraid. Frankly, The torbie wouldn't blame her for her action because she too would be afraid. How else could you tell the clan that a recently made leader just up and ascended to starclan? Nothing came out of her mouth just yet, she wasn't sure what to say since she had thought Gingerstar would have lasted longer than beansprout. Ears flicked over to just catch someone accusing Larky of murder, did she just hear that correctly? "What just came outta your ugly mouth?" she snarled approaching the older warrior. She could care less about them being older or bigger than her, she didn't sit down for others bad-mouthing ones she liked. "Take it back or I'll show you what a murder can and will look like!" she hissed. "I'll gut you here and now!" she wasn't going to sit there and let a nobody accuse Lark of anything without any visible truth. She barely paid any attention to the fact that a stupid leader from another clan just waltzed into their camp like they owned the place.

She took a moment to live in her glory, grooming herself proudly, before eventually getting impatient. She turned to Larkwing and unsheathed her claws, batting at the air. "Larkbestie, just tell me when, I'll leap at Bumblebestie and whack her! Hard!" she promised, leaping into the air and flopping back down. She pranced in a small circle again, batting at imaginary enemies, showing her amazing skills, before facing Bumblebestie and Larkbestie again. "Watch me, I'll rip them apart!" She grinned, showing her puny fangs, and snapped her tiny teeth in the air. "I'll turn you to fresh-kill, Bumblebestie!"

The nerve of this cat appalled him more than anything else, how could she just storm into camp while they were mourning the death of their late leader Gingerstar and just accuse them of poising Cattail pond? Which, Thunderclan stole to mention.

Falconflight wouldn't stand for this though he was glad his siblings had been curt with Bumblestar he felt that more needed to be done and he would make sure this Thunderclanner knew exactly what he thought and make sure all of it was true after all why would he need to be respected to a rude mange-pelt.

Although obeying Larkwing to stand down he didn't unsheath his claws and stared at the Thunderclan leader with the same furious eyes as he stood a little way away from his sister "How'd ya know it was a Riverclan cat? It could've just been a rouge or a cat from another clan trying to frame us" he growled bluntly typical Thunderclan blindly accusing cats without thinking things through.

He wasn't done yet and this time he said something a little bolder not caring he hadn't given time for the high ranks to speak first "Mabye your just blaming us because ya think ya can push us around and have an excuse to steal more from us or pick a fight well I'll tell ya what ya can take your clan of fox-hearts and leave us alone, try doing things without violence for once" and that was it he ended it with a sharp lash of his tail that better teach her he doubted it would but for now he was silent again for the time being and awaited for Larkwing to speak again it didn't really matter if she scolded him to him he'd stood up for Riverclan.

She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes




And the noise continues around her, unending, ceaseless, incessant noise. One of the biggest voices is one of her apprentices, Bitterpaw, obviously just waking up and having a lot of opinions on that matter - none of them pleasant. Green eyes tracked him as he spoke his piece to anyone he could see, spouting nothing but hostility (and getting slapped by Birdpaw for his actions). And, after all that, he has the gall to threaten Bumblestar while he’s at it.

”Bitterpaw, shut up,” she hissed, ears flat and eyes narrowed. Her attention was then drawn away again by Ripplekit, the young molly’s spunk was certainly entertaining if nothing else. ”Thank you, Ripplekit, you’re very brave. I’ll let you know if I need your claws.”

Bumblestar’s next words were a shock to her. Someone had planted poison at Cattail Pond. What sort of mouse brained fool would think that’s a good idea. And they did a poor enough job disguising their scent that now it was her problem. From the description given, Larkwing had a pretty solid idea of who that cat was. The question now was if she should address it publicly or not. Honestly, Larkwing was leaning towards addressing it privately, and especially not in front of Bumblestar, worried the ThunderClan leader might demand a severe sentencing or punishment happen in front of her.

”Craneblood, I told you to stand down,” the tortoiseshell growls in the direction of the warrior, tail lashing once behind her. ”If you can’t control yourself, then remove yourself from this clearing. I won’t have any unnecessary blood shed on my watch.” Was that authoritative enough? Larkwing hoped so, she really didn’t want to have to repeat herself again and again. And, honestly, she had hoped her warriors would be mature enough to know when to keep their mouths shut.

With that taken care of, Larkwing turns her attention back to Her Majesty Bumblestar. ”I’m sorry one of my warriors was stupid enough to get petty revenge in this way. I had no idea that had occurred, but on that description I have a good idea of who the culprit may be.” In fact, Larkwing doesn’t have a ‘pretty good idea,’ she’s almost certain. Ottersplash, fluffy brown molly with yellow eyes… yeah, that was basically a perfect match. ”I’ll see that she’s sufficiently punished. Is that all?” ’Please let that be all…’ she pleaded in her head, she just wanted to let the clan get back to their grieving. Bumblestar’s funeral crashing was infuriating, but, hey, at least Larkwing could be angry at someone that’s not herself for once. Maybe the leader of the squirrels showing up was a good thing, too, because all that anxiety and fear that was bubbling to the very surface just moments before? She could hardly feel it anymore. Not to say it was gone, stars no, Bumblestar just being here brought an extra layer of fear and anxiety with it, but she could at least use that extra layer as the drive she needed to protect her own should things come to that.

*-Larkwing-*
She/her | 17 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes




And the noise continues around her, unending, ceaseless, incessant noise. One of the biggest voices is one of her apprentices, Bitterpaw, obviously just waking up and having a lot of opinions on that matter - none of them pleasant. Green eyes tracked him as he spoke his piece to anyone he could see, spouting nothing but hostility (and getting slapped by Birdpaw for his actions). And, after all that, he has the gall to threaten Bumblestar while he’s at it.

”Bitterpaw, shut up,” she hissed, ears flat and eyes narrowed. Her attention was then drawn away again by Ripplekit, the young molly’s spunk was certainly entertaining if nothing else. ”Thank you, Ripplekit, you’re very brave. I’ll let you know if I need your claws.”

Bumblestar’s next words were a shock to her. Someone had planted poison at Cattail Pond. What sort of mouse brained fool would think that’s a good idea. And they did a poor enough job disguising their scent that now it was her problem. From the description given, Larkwing had a pretty solid idea of who that cat was. The question now was if she should address it publicly or not. Honestly, Larkwing was leaning towards addressing it privately, and especially not in front of Bumblestar, worried the ThunderClan leader might demand a severe sentencing or punishment happen in front of her.

Shellwhisker got to her paws and let out a loud yowl. ''Every RiverClan cat besides Larkwing and Falconfeather needs to be quiet!'' The tawny-and-white pseudo-tabby she-cat's fur fluffed up indignantly. Her yowl was commanding and held authority. ''I know for a fact that Larkwing would never bring any harm to Gingerstar, let alone would she kill him,'' Shellwhisker cast an ice-blue glare around her Clanmates. ''Larkwing isn't like that, and I know you all have your doubts, but you have to think about it,'' The RiverClan warrior urged the gathered RiverClan warriors. ''We have no other cats than Larkwing and Falconfeather to bring us through this. A leader dies, and we will get over it. RiverClan is strong, and we always will be.'' Shellwhisker whisked her tail. Bitterberry's amber eyes had brightened, along with her littermates', Breezeberry's and Brindleberry's, gazes. Jackdawkit's blue eyes widened at Shellwhisker's words.

Ripplekit beamed, proud. Not only had she frightened the Thunderclan leader, but she was praised for her courage by her own leader! At this point, they may as well make her deputy. Wait. Her eyes lit up. DEPUTY!!! She was deputy!!! She sprang up, squealing in excitement. "Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! I'm the greatest! I'm so awesome! I am the greatest of all timeeeeeeeeee!" She ran in circles, delighted. She was the ultimate cat. She would grow to become the most well-known cat of all time, told in stories from queens to their kits. She kept running in circles, oblivious to all the tension around her, joy in itself. Eventually, she settled down enough to sit down and shut up. She groomed herself once more. After all, a queen like herself must retain her composure. And yes, she had decided that neither deputy nor leader was a sufficient calling, no, Queen Ripple sounded better. Yes, she liked the sound of that! Queen Ripple bounded calmly and coolly stalked over to Badgerbestie. "Bestie, I have decided that I am Queen Ripple. You must refrain from calling me anything else, or else I will send my army upon you," she said, 'humphing.' She then turned her attention elsewhere, to Larkbestie and Bumblebestie. Her subjects. She turned to Badgerbestie. "If you want, we can be Queens together. Queen Badger and Queen Ripple." She smiled, looking at her tiny claws. Then she trotted back to Larkbestie, motioning with her tail for Badgerbestie- no, Queen Badger to follow. "Since we are Queens, we get front row seats, I decided." She sat, taking time and effort into curling her purrfect tail purrfectly around her purrfect paws. Satisfied, she slowly bore her gaze at Bumblebestie. "If you harm any of us, I promise me and Queen Badger will send a shower of pain upon you," she said sophisticatedly. What fun! Ripplekit was having the time of her life, being Queen Ripple.

Ripplekit opened her mouth in shock. Some cat had pushed her back! She fluffed out her fur and got ready to attack Randomcatbestie, when she saw it was Larkwing. Closing her mouth quickly she swallowed down any words she was about to spit out. She then tried to groom her fur, which was still sticking straight up, making her look like a wild bush. Wild bush turned around, calling for her bestie to come closer. "Badgerbestie, come on, the view here is so much better! We are gonna see Bumblebestie and Larkbestie argue about something!" she squealed, excited. Turning her attention back to the glaring Larkbestie, she thought of something else to say. Then she heard some apprentice, Winnersomething, spout accusations of Bumblebestie killing Gingerbestie. Smiling, wanting to hop onto the train joke, she squealed, laughing. "Yeahahaha, Bumblebestie, you definitely attacked Gingerbestie! But it's okay now, becuz I scared you off!" Grinning proudly, Ripplekit looked for more cats to talk to. She was bored. Then she heard some warrior scold Winnerbestie, who was the cat who claimed Bumblebestie killed Gingerbestie, Not wanting to be in the wrong, and thinking this was all one big fun game, she ran up to the two and joined in on the scolding. "Yeah! You really shouldn't do that! Cuz...um..what she said! Yeah!" Then she smiled, and, because she was too impatient to wait for a response, she started bragging. "Hey, Randomwarriorbestie, did you see me scare off Bumblebestie? Now we will be safe becuz of my amazing warrior skills!" she chirped, puffing her chest out proudly.

Badgerkit
She/Her/Hers

Badgerkit shook her head, still in shock. She didn't feel like going over; and she didn't want to "see better" and she didn't want to be "Queen Badger" she had seen all she needed to, and wasn't in the mood to play. The leader was dead and everyone was fighting. She didn't want to be out here anymore, and she was only a kit, so no one needed her, so she slipped back into the nursery and laid in her nest, face on her paws, and did nothing. Ripplekit clearly didn't understand how big of a problem this was, and she couldn't stand watching her play around anymore. She wished she could just reverse time and make everything okay again - Or what she thought was okay again.

Treepaw growled, idiots thinking that Bumblestar or some Thunderclan cat did it. Why would they show up to speak with the leader they just killed? To rub it in? No reasonable cat would do that, and Bumblestar, no matter how power corrupted, was a decent leader. Treepaw would not deny that fact, so why were these cats, cats that were way older and more experienced than him making these idiotic decisions? Windclan wasn't stupid enough either and Shadowclan was already in war with Thunderclan, they would not want to start another fight. The only cats who would know that Gingerstar had only one life would be a cat of Riverclan. Perhaps, no, there had to be a traitor.

' ' Larkwing, I know i'm only an apprentice but I think that a Riverclan cat did it. I mean think about, Shadowclan is at war with Thunderclan so they wouldn't want to pick another fight. Thunderclan is here, why would they come after killing a leader? To gloat? And Windclan is a pretty decent clan. ' ' Treepaw paused, speaking honestly, ' ' And the only cats who would know that Gingerstar had one life would be Riverclan cats.

Shellwhisker looked at Treepaw, nodding along to the apprentice's words. She looked at Larkwing, her ice-blue eyes narrowed thoughtfully. ''What Treepaw says makes sense,'' She meowed, padding over to the apprentice and sitting beside them. ''The only cats to know that Gingerstar only had one life would be RiverClan cats. There may have been a cat in the Clan that was close enough with Gingerstar in order to take advantage of our leader's only life. They could have killed him in hopes of you making them deputy, depending on if there was a grudge being held against Gingerstar, or whether they had a different reason to have killed him,'' The warrior broke off, her ears flattening and eyes widening in alarm. ''We don't know who did it, if a RiverClan cat was responsible,'' She mewed, voice ringing around the clearing as her Clanmates broke into murmurs of shock and disbelief at her words. ''You must be cautious of who you choose for your deputy, Larkwing, or you could be next.''

Then adding more seriously. "I'm sure Larkwing has her own ideas.

Which ever it is, Brightnight simply believed that this apprentice shouldn't have been the one to widely share that.

[OPEN FOR INTERACTION!]

Cherryswirl had wanted to introduce herself to the rambunctious little kit running underpaw after being... well, not addressed by her name. It was quite amusing though - and golden orbs lingered as she watched Ripplekit literally race away to get into trouble. Blinking back, she turned a gaze to Winterpaw, who seemed to say nothing yet in response to her scolding - though she would understand if silence filled the air from it. Still though, RiverClan was ablaze with shouting, grief, accusations - names, threats, and unpleasantries thrown around like a picked-clean carcass of prey. Each shout out had her fur bristling, ears pinned back - especially as she felt Bumblestar's burning gaze shift her direction.

And that was what Cherry had been expecting. Another snap from Larkwing had her shaking her head - though not in disagreement with the current Deputy. Never before had she seen such chaos ensue from a poorly timed house-call and horrible inconvenient death. Some of their clanmates must have lost their minds... was discretion frowned upon nowadays? Surely... some of these cats must feel badly for their accusations? Gingerstar had been in a similar issue not too many moons ago with Beanstar's death, but at least they had someone to blame. Cherryswirl's ears perked up though at the mention of poison,

"Who would be stupid enough to try and poison prey? That could lead back to our own clan just as easily for Stars-sake!" She called to no one in particular - just another voice in the raging crowd. Whoever did it must have a brain the size of a pebble! RiverClan had been through enough already, why risk any sort of stupid plan like that? Even if it was to weaken the tree-climbers?!

Charredkit stepped forward hesitantly. "Maybe you weren't looking thoroughly enough. For all I know, I've got more than just life here to go through. There's this villain of a Loner- William- who's been going round murdering kits, and I fear I may be next. But even I know to search harder when no evidence is found. Sootpelt and I should look next. Sure, I'm only a kit, but I'm not an idiot. It can't be as simple as it looks. And Larkwing isn't even a bad person! Look, how about we all just work together and stop arguing? I will not sit here while y'all are yelling at each other. And also, the poisoned prey thing- Sootpelt had been on a walk the other day, she saw some Shadowclanners doing it. Cherryswirl has a point, however, as it may lead back to us but maybe if we just work together we can solve everything." Charredkit ended his little speech. Sootpelt just looked amazed.
"Oh stars, Charredkit, you just made the greatest speech I've ever heard." (AAA I BASED MY KIT'S SPEECH SKILLS ON WINSTON CHURCHILL!)

He continued to listen the meeting, but have lost a bit of interest by now... Until Bumblestar showed up, he tensed when the ThunderClan leader arrived, what was he doing over here? He noticed how hostile some cats were, but what surprised him was the mention of something bad happened, and it came from someone here. Maybe a sort of revenge from the fight they had lived through? Possibly, he moved a bit away, and remained attentive to any movements... that could possibly go wrong...

Oh, my. Gingerstar dead already? This was interesting. How'd that happen? Odd. Hawkmask wasn't sad, less odd (when it comes to him anyways); but rather, interested..in a way. How come a cat of such rank die so easily? If he can't survive the stress then he didn't deserve the title. Plus, that would mean he wouldn't have died so easily. Honestly Hawkmask expected better from Gingerfrost as leader. Wow, there's quite some cats yelling random stuff he didn't care enough to listen to. One. And now Bumblestar is here! Great! Quite suprising though considering she just walked up to the camp. How rude! Oh, what does she want? Quite some cats yelling around here yea? Oh wait he already mentioned that. "Interesting.." he quietly mewed, intrigued. Well, he rather sit back and watch more than get caught up in the conversation

He simple listened. Oh shoot, poison? Well at least He didn't have anything to do with this so no one's yellin' at him. Though that fact was quite interesting, wonder what would happen if no one knew about the poison. Would the whole of Thunderclan get poison? That'll also be interesting. Man this Craneblood cat was annoying. Anyway. Who might the culprit be? Larkwing probably knew so a punishment was probably going to happen at some point, whether it was on-meeting or off-meeting. Wonder what kind of punishment. If Hawk would guess, he would guess that cat must've regretted it once they hear Bumblestar explain what the culprit looked like. Who knows though, maybe something more interesting will happen. The entire time, he was mostly interested in whatever was going on. Seems like a lot though it was around...2 things...happening. Gingerstar's death announcement and Bumblestar arriving here. Well...3 if you count Bumble asking something. Anyway, Flame predicted this meeting would end soon..but maybe not?

"Forest-rats in our camp..." she growled to herself. her hate for thunderclan was a lot...."tch.." she looked at larkwing and smiled a little. knowing their leader was doing a great job at fairing for all the noise. she kept her mouth shut to allow her leader to speak.

Charredkit noticed Sootpelt had wandered outside and was now sat outside the medicine cat den. He decided to be patient. But then a huge bleeding cut across one eye caught his attention and he panicked. Immediately he curled up in a small ball and started murmuring about some loner called 'William' who happened to be the main reason why he had originally been a kittypet. "... Oh no, not him...

The calico twitched his ears, as Bumblestar spoke of poisoned prey. He'd heard stories of RiverClan poisoning their claws, in a battle that had happened seasons ago. But he never thought they'd stoop so low as to...as to poison another. Especially not under Gingerstar's guidance.

Big ears twitched as the feline took a second. Whipping his head around. "Wait! Larkwing hold on!" he called out, turning to look at the molly. "I was there with Ottersplash that day! I'm sorry but we didn't poison anything. We did a border patrol but that was it! After the flood we wanted to try and keep our border firm, that way none of the clans thought anything would have happened."

Than, Sunnybunny turned to look at the ThunderClan leader. Confusion flashing over his features. "I swear. We didn't poison anything. Are you absolutely positive it was us?" he asked.

Shrike’kit / habit
He watches as his so called newfound friend leaps on top of the rock to announce something. Green orbs following his every movement in awe. But if the leaders dead then do they all disband? If so who’s going to take care of us all. he flinches at all the loud howling and yowling going on around him. His sensitive ears flicking back in response to all the noise. Shuffling backwards he ducked into the crowed bumping into cats as he murmured halfhearted apologies. Eventually he found himself out of there his eyes set on finding somewhere to hinder down and sleep. He was tired and his stomach still faintly hurt from lack of food.

With a grumble the small kitten sat down. Completely ignoring the meeting and the chaos going on around him. Finding a feather be lazily batted at it with half interest. But still it was a pretty feather all the same so he picked it up and carefully tucked it behind his ear. It was a shrike feather. Perfect for a little guy like himself. Brows furrowing in boredom he glances around before seeing a den that looks relatively welcoming. As he padded off towards the nursery’s entrance he cast one last look back at the cat whom he had enjoyed staying and talking with. Maybe…if I’m lucky he’ll become my family.

Then big kitty padded into the clearing making him pause. He waddled back through the crowd and stopped to glance up at her through questioning eyes. Who… hello! he chirped unknowingly. After hearing a few protested yowls his curiosity dimmed. Are you bad? Are you a clan cat as well? Oh your name is bumby! he asked after a moment.

Winterpaw
(Image by Pangoligon)

Oh, so that's why... yeah, very understandable... not. "Cherryswirl, I'm not going to let this murderer get away with causing destruction in RiverClan." he he said to the warrior, who didn't believe his... 'actually true' (he doesn't think it's a lie, though) claim. He walked past Sunsetpaw, not listening to a word she said.
This was a stupid thing to do, but he walked closer to the ThunderClan leader, ready for something, as he murmured, "If you're not looking to start battles, then don't go around murdering leaders."
Seriously, who's going to believe that there was someone poisoning food!? Hoping that the ThunderClanner didn't hear him, he sat closer, ready to help if she ended up deciding to attack RiverClan.

[ but hex_caaaat (/ meeeee), we can't have Winterpaw day without something going weird or strangely wrong! - coming right up. time for remembering ]

But, aren't battles bad?
The last battle he was in, there was WindClan, then blood, then we don't talk about it, then he woke up in camp. Was very strange. What if all battles were like that!? He squeezed his eyes shut, and immediately regretted it. That... scene, the terrible one. He opened them again, regretting the decision. Don't do that. He made a mental note not to close his eyes so tightly, otherwise the thing we do not talk about would be back.
Calm.
It's all going to be fine.
You'll be fine, Winterpaw.
Bumbleannoying will be punished.
Obviously, because you're right.
Bumblestar probably poisoned him with something deadly.
You don't get heart issues that kill you in one go!
That's just wrong.
You're just wrong, Winterpaw. Shush.

FALCONFEATHER
herbal knowledge T2 (perm), silver tongue (perm, active)
he/they -- RC medicine cat -- 34 moons

Wasn't this just lovely? Falconfeather's ears flattened as more chaos erupted below him. Couldn't there just be one meeting, just one damn meeting without some drama starting? Or, at least, have the time to properly grieve over their passed leader? It seemed near impossible for anything normal to happen in the past three moons, without something (or somebody) starting something. His tail twitched irritably as he let out a soft tsk sound, watch it all unfold before him. Seeing Lark adequately handle Bitterpaw's unnecessary outburst, he turned his attention else were, observing with a approved nod towards Tansypaw as she helped Blueberrypaw get Birdpaw to the den. It seemed most chaos was handled so far, but what else would erupt in the wake?

As Larkwing moved closer to Bumblestar, a protective feeling came over Falconfeather. He jumped down, landing gracefully and stalking forward. The healer came to a skirt stop beside his littler sister, casting her a sideways glance. Concerning previous events and battles, trust with this was completely tarnished, and for any ThunderClanner for that matter. After pulling something as unruly provoked and caused by the patrol that waltzed in their camp, Falcon had rights for his distrust, and he wasn't entirely convinced Bumblestar wasn't sneaking on their territory, otherwise, who would've found their new camp? Certainly nobody in the clan could've been that devious to tell rival clans they had relocated? If he was honest, he wouldn't put it past some cats in the clan, but that was for another time. Nose wrinkled in disgust as the forest smell wafted towards him, but he forced himself to relax. It wasn't wise to show hostility to another clan, especially since your leader just died.

The sorry, excuse-for-an-apology the squirrel leader spoke flatly at the two high ranks certainly ticked Falconfeather off, at least she could've put some pep in it or something. He clicked his tongue lightly, glowering at the leader with cold green eyes. Tension crackled in air. "Apology, yeah yeah, accepted." He grumbled tail lashing slightly. Then, the accusation came. "Poisioning?" Now why in the hell would they do that? She must be out of her mind if she thought of their warriors would steep that low. But as Bumblestar told the two of the description of the suspect, green eyes narrowed with distaste. He knew exactly who it was, and would have word about it with Larkwing later. As much as he wanted to lash out with his claws once more at the other leader, he composed himself as much as he could and took a deep breath, but still held that same coldness towards the patrol. A famaliar face made him turn his attention only slightly to Violetfreckle, which he let out a small snort at the RiverClanner-turned-Squirrel. Good riddance.

The healer turned back once again to Bumblestar, letting his gaze flicker over to Larkwing as she responded. He stood in silence, waiting for the yellow-furred leader's response.

Shellwhisker padded over beside Falconfeather, sharing a glance with the medicine cat. Eyes narrowing, she looked Bumblestarup and down. Her ears flattened at the ThunderClan leader's news. She whisked her tail, digging her claws into the ground. Shellwhisker hissed through gritted teeth.
''I can assure you that no RiverClan cat has been to to the ThunderClan camp any time recently, Bumblestar.''

Giving a small hiss of disgust Hawksun slid up to his side along with Shellheart, "Why in Starclan's name would we want to go on your land? We have our own land, next time you squirrel eaters have problems go cry to mommy, not to us" he snarled. Clearly furious as his leaders funeral was happening, he also had a protective glint in his eyes as he made sure no kits got past a certain line. "Willowkit stay back" he meowed softly, nudging the kit back with a protective and hostile stare at Bumblestar.

Treepaw

Treepaw sighed, his dark tail twining around himself as he grumbled under his breath. Once he was a warrior, he wouldn't be treated like this. If he were only a few moons older, more cat would agree with his thought. He looked toward his mentor, CinnamonSwirl, she seemed to be talking to her mate. Oh, it was BrightNight. He winced, BrightNight had called the Thunderclan cats "ThunderClan rats." Poor CinnamonSwirl, that must be hard to deal with. He wondered what Primrosepaw was thinking about right now. He smiled a little, just the thought of her made his heart flutter like a hummingbird. His eyes softened as he recalled her, the way she talked, the way she looked, how kind she spoke, how funny it was they thought they were going to maul each other. He had this look on his face, the kind of look you get when you're in true bliss. He tail swirled around him slowly, he felt like he was in a dream.

He wondered if he was in love, no, he couldn't be. He only knew the she-cat for a few minutes. But those moments felt like a dream, his heart fought back. Treepaw, listen to me, your brain, I am logic I am always correct, she is WINDCLAN, you are RIVERCLAN!!! It would never work, his brain argued. He felt like he was in an arguement inwardly, where no one could ever win because there's no way to compromise or fight yourself! Soon his bliss turned to agony, very clearly. His scent got a sour edge and his nose scrunched up as his tail flicked and churned. He wished he could ask someone, anyone, without them judging. He could ask Berrypaw? No they barely knew each other... There would be ways to ask Primrosepaw but that would be too embarrassing if she asked who. What about CinnamonSwirl, he thought. But... what if Cinnamon told the leader? He could get exiled or worse!

He rubbed his nose with the back of his paw. BLOUGHHHHH! A gush of wind blew into his face all of a sudden. His fur fluffed up in his face. His eye twitched with annoyance, WHY? Now he looked really stupid. Getting scolded, talking to a leader as an apprentice, then not noticing when a wind was coming? He should have tasted the cold air coming. It was so obvious! He sniffed the air and it smelled like salt-water and ice, then he had seen it rushing past the trees and he didn't flatten himself? JEEZ! He started to quickly lick down his now huge looking fur. Finally after a few minutes his fur was finally back normal, he truly wanted to cry, or talk to Primrosepaw.

And then he was back to that bliss. His scent changed to something kind of like roses and mint. He felt like he was floating through the air with flowers and beauty. He smiled.

She looked over as Larkwing addressed her and her threats towards this no-name fool. Springpaw was going to leave it at that no longer bothering to go at this idiot, but she'd keep an eye on this one. That was the plan before they opened their mouth and spouted their own threats. Ooooh, she would bury this one into the very dirt they stand on, they were trying to test her! "You over here throwing out an accusation with out any evidence is a whole ass disgrace!" she threw back at him. She did not hear anything from this guy to prove their stupid point, "Hell, she just said he died from a heart thing, or whatever it's called!" she spat. Now she was sitting there staring at this one questionably, did she just hear them right? "Did you just admit that you killed your own mother?" there was no way she heard that right.

Woah, look, there's some more yellin' going on. This is probably the most chaotic meeting he has ever been to! So now that's something unique! "Seems like everyone has quite the energy today" he calmly said to no one else but himself as he watched the cats around him from his seat. Though he did have a small grin on his face for a split second before his expression turned blank again as his stabing orange eyes went back to see the cats around him. He wasn't arguing with anyone, nor did he talk to anone. The other cats already stepped up this meeting with their own chaotic selves so he simply just stayed in his spot. Though he would admit it would be less boring if he had something to do other than use his eyes to see. A yelling cat caught his attention though. Something about them not killing their mother or whatever. They were a warrior in an arguement with an apprentice, not the first time Hawk's seen that. They were loud loud; for sure.

He would keep tabs on that arguement for now to see where it'll go soon; unless someone seperates the two before the arguement sparks. Now, what about the rest of the cats? Bumblestar stank up the area around the Floodstone, so that was something negative to consider. Apparently Hawkmask only had the stink to be the thing to consider, instead of...y'know, everything else? He know it wasn't good but it was quite entertaining to him. Now just gotta wait.

Lostkit had just walked over to the crowd of yowling cats, her ears perked up with curiosity. If there was drama, she was always there for it! Lostkit had overheard Larkwing saying something about Gingerstar, like... he was dead? What did Larkwing even mean? It sounded like gibberish to her mind. Bumblestar was here, too! ThunderClan's leader was very nice, so Lostkit had heard. Plus, Bumblestar was very pretty!

"Hi, Bumbowstar!" Lostkit called out to the huge leader. She then turned her head to Larkwing. "What's dead? Is it food?"

As Lostkit was trying her very best to be loud over the crowd, some cat started yowling, and it made Lostkit jump back. It was Antlerblizzard, that cat who yowled something else moments before. Something about their mother being killed?

Killed? What's killed?

That was a very big kitty word! It sounded funny on Lostkit's tongue.

"Killed... killed... killed." Lostkit repeated the word under her breath. Her squeaky voice along with her bad pronunciation made Lostkit sound like she was saying keed.

[dino.]

Of course Larkwing was shocked. Bumblestar managed to stifle a snort, expression stony as she stared back at the younger she-cat. Her eyes briefly flickered to Falconfeather. New medicine cat, surely he didn't know as much... but she would keep her sights on him all the same.

"I except proof that she's dealt with," she said flatly to Larkwing after she had torn her gaze away from the other, "and I except to stop finding poison on ThunderClan land following this chat. Otherwise I'll handle the consequences myself. This is the only warning I'm givin' you."

She started to turn away, but two idiotic children invaded her path before she could. She glowered at them momentarily before saying sharply to Larkwing, "Do a better job of keepin' your kits in check.

"Violetfreckle, Hivesnarl, back home, now. We're done." Gesturing to her Clanmates with her tail, Bumblestar turned away from the two RiverClan ranks and departed from their camp.

Waaaaay too much was happenin' waaaay too fast. Ginger was dead? The newly appointed sibling high ranks found 'em? Now Buzzstar or whatever her name was came waltzing in claiming a riverclanner planted poison? As if Riverclan hadn't learned their lesson the last time? Please. Floodfeather wasn't the brightest star in the sky, but he wasn't the dullest either. Larkypoo and her brother had totally set this up to make themselves look innocent. To rally the clan behind their backs so they could get away with killing the chillest leader their clan had had in a long time.

A slender tail twitched behind him, but he said nothing. Wasn't worth aggitating her majesty's loyal subjects. Not yet. All this pent up aggression from Beestar would probably turn right towards him if he opened his big mouth. Besides, who knew where Baykit scurried off to? I suppose I should start thinkin' about him now. Ugh... where did that booger go?

Larkwing didn’t like the way Bumblestar issued her order, something Larkwing was certain was also a thinly veiled threat. Orders from a cat who was not her leader? Strangely, Larkwing didn’t like the feeling of receiving those. She should report this to Gingerstar— It took a moment before she realized that thought. Report this to Gingerstar? How could she? She couldn’t so much as speak to him. As the queen of Squirrels called for her patrol to leave Larkwing called out to her own clan, ”Hawkmask, Nightspark, Raventail… see to it that our guests get home safely.”

That said, the now leader turned around to address the rest of her clan, not bothering jumping back on the Floodstone, and glancing briefly at her brother, grateful that he had decided to stick by her side. She’d be lost without him… more so than she already felt. ”I need, uh-“ a deep breath, regain her composure, don’t let your fear of being seen by so many eyes show. She started over, ”I need a group of cats to see to Gingerstar’s burial. Please. Bring anyone who wants to say goodbye to him. If any of the kits want to go…” she hesitated… she wanted to let the kits who would miss Gingerstar pay their respects, to get closure by attending the burial… but that wasn’t safe. ”…if any kits want to go, let them have a few minutes here to pay their respects. It’s too dangerous in the territory to risk bringing them.”

Moving on, Larkwing scanned the crowd, looking for Ottersplash and… Sunnybunny, the cat who had spoken up about not planting poison at Cattail Pond. ”Sunnybunny, find Ottersplash please and meet me in the clearing? I want to hear your side of the story before making any decisions.” And now, for the last thing for her to address here… her trip to the Starcave. She didn’t want to go, but what choice did she have, really? Hand the position off to someone she trusted? There were few cats who she truly trusted would do well by RiverClan, but would handing the position off look like an admission of guilt to those who were calling her guilty, a murderer, and baying for her blood?

”I’ll travel to the Starcave soon,” she announced, ”I’ll do my utmost to do right by all of you, I swear it. This meeting is dismissed.” With that done and the meeting adjourned, Larkwing cast one last sorrowful glance at the corpse of Gingerstar and bunted her head into Falconfeather’s shoulder before setting off to a quieter part of the clearing, to wait for Sunnybunny and Ottersplash to share their side of things.

Baykit had been hanging around the fringes of the crowd, not entirety sure what was going on. He just wanted to hang out in the clearing and avoid the clutter and noise and colors of the nursery, and BOOM. Some cat was yelling. He knew it was Larkdeputy by the way waves of blue accompanied the voice. And then a whooole bunch of cats appeared out of basically NOWHERE. Nope nope nope, Baykit had scuttled away to the furthest corner in camp to escape the cacophony.

Things got more chaotic. He watched with wide eyes as some stinky cats walked into camp. They yapped for a bit. They left. There was so much noise. Baykit couldn't think or see or hear, even when he closed his eyes he could still see the colors and patterns and angry swirls attacking him. How did the grown up cats deal with this?? Did it get better as he got older? Was that why kits weren't allowed at big meetings? The poor trembling kit was plastered against the furthest wall from the Floodstone, covering his ears and squeezing his eyes shut.

She didn’t expect them to be all that thrilled with what she’d have to tell them. Well, no matter, it had to be done and she was feeling a lot more in control of her mind and her emotions this time around, so there wouldn’t be any mishaps in her composure.

he ran over a mental list of the things this could be about, finding very few good things that could possibly be announced. well, it pays to be pessimistic: perhaps the stoic tabby would be pleasantly surprised? if larkwing had any good news to share, rushwater might have considered it a miracle in of its own right, with all the hell riverclan had been through recently. maybe new apprentices? starclan actually helping out (he figured that about as likely as him taking a break)? there wasn't much he could actually come up with.

Like every meeting since the one he was appointed medicine cat, the healer sat alone in his new(ish) den, thinking and sorting and planning. His burrow ever furrowed in thought since Gingerstar's death, the whispers and murmurs of a rebellion coming up didn't soothe his fur down either. His sister's rather confident voice reached his ears, muffled slightly and distant from the lichen drapeing across the entrance of the medicine den, causing two stark green eyes, one of the main traits most of him and his siblings shared, to glowly brightly from the dark entrance, meeting the green ones of Larkwing's as she stood atop the Floodstone, all leader like.

He glanced back longingly towards his almost perfectly sorted piles of herbs, sighing lowly. He should be doing that, but as medicine cat, he was needed for this meeting, and everyone after that, especially since RiverClan currently lacked a deputy. So Falcon was, I'd say he was required to be present. A thought crossed his mind. He slipped back into his den and wrapped the rest of his unsorted herbs and un-prepped herbs and brought them with him, coming to a place near the front of the meeting stone. He set them down gently, sitting with the Floodstone to his left and the clan gathering to his right, he opens his little leaf purse thingy of herbs and goes back to his previous task of stripping leaves and sorting them and getting flowers and what not, consumed deeply in his task.

Though he did take a mental note of seeing Bluefang, glad too see the warrior was doing better after the fox attack. His eyes scanned the clearing once for Tansypaw, or maybe even Shrikekit, or hey, maybe Tiger slunk her way into the territory to see him and found camp. His grinned sheepishly at the last thought, face flushing slightly, before he shook his head. He had to keep it together, keep his feelings hidden, for now at least.

So there, Falconfeather sat, the silver cat sorting through his herbs like any other healer you would see as he waits for Larkwing's announcement, already having a mental understanding of what it would be.

[ OPEN FOR INTERACTION! ]

A yawn parting her jowls, Cherryswirl was stirred by Larkwing's - frankly loud - call. Slowly pushing herself to her paws, the warrior nosed her way from the warrior's den and into the clearing, along with a few other clanmates who were beginning to gather. She was in the home-stretch of being good as new - hopefully there were no more lazy healing days on the horizon. Cherry was getting exhausted by staring up at the den roof for the majority of the day. Not to mention this had interfered with her training for Minkpaw... She would have to find the apprentice after the meeting to have a check-up with her - see if anyone else had taken her out at all since Cherry's recovery.

"Mmm," She hummed, settling in her usual spot as she smacked her lips sleepily. "Hoping this is good news!" Despite her tired demeanor, Cherry was still able to keep her usual upbeat tone.

[Sleek]

Sleekfur hobbled over, still getting used to having three legs. He wondered if his friends Cherryswirl or Bluefang were nearby.

Ripplekit bounded over, but stopped, turned back for the nursery, and called for her bestie. "Badgerbestie, let's go! Clan meeting!" Badgerbestie had left the other meeting early because she was feeling bad. But now, according to super important warrior Cherryswirl, she was the clan's official cheerer-upper. Once Badgerkit arrived (hopefully), she strutted over, waving others away. "Out the way, official Clan Cheerer-Upper coming through. Yeah, I'm important." Once she arrived at the front, she blinked up towards Larkbestie expectantly. "Hey there Larkbestie! What duties do you have for your loyal clan cheerer-upper today? By the way, I was appointed by super ultra legendary Cherryswirl."

Meadowkit ran in circles around her mother, hoping her sister would join in.

So many meetings... It was hard to get much of anything done with so many meetings happening. Whispers and murmurs already had her looking over her shoulder. Eyes on her just made it worse. Watching Falconfeather wrap up what he was doing, an ear twitches curiously. She had been busy organizing the stock they had by how fresh they were. That wasn't exactly something she could do sitting beneath the Floodstone. So rising to her paws, she allows Falconfeather to leave the den first before trotting quietly after him.

As she makes her way to her spot beside him, she nods and smiles at a few familiar faces, finally beginning to remember some names to faces. When she passes Cherrsywirl, she mews a quiet 'hello' and carries on to take a seat. Chocolate hues watch as Falconfeather goes back to his prepping and her stare moves from his paws at work to his face and back again. A few times.

"Can I help with anything..?"

Maybe keeping her paws busy would make her feel a little less anxious about sitting up front.

A purr escaped her maw as she looked over to see her mate finally show up to join her. Good, because she was about to go drag him out of the warrior's den or wherever he was hiding. "Hello there, sweet thing" and pressed her face into his shoulder. Now she was even more content to sit here and wait for Larkwing to say anything or anything really to happen.

CinnamonSwirl yawned, feeling absolutely drained. They blinked and padded outside. A sleepy smile spread across their face as they spotted their lovely mate, BrightNight. They sat next to BrightNight and twinned their tail with hers and purred. "Good morning, love!" They whispered and nuzzled BrightNight's neck. "How are the kits?" They asked and leaned their head into their mates shoulder. They spotted CherrySwirl and waved and smiled. "I'll be riight back, Bright!" They purred and got up, feeling cold without their mates warm fur next to theirs. "Morning, Cherry!" CinnamonSwirl said as they approached their former mentor "I was wondering if you'd like to come sit with me and my mate? You could bring MinkPaw too, if you wish!" They purred and spotted MinnowPaw and FalconFlight. "I am going to go but feel free to come sit with us soon!" They added and padded away to MinnowPaw. "MinnowPaw!" They purred with delight "How's my baby sister?" They purred "Now, I'm sorry for bothering you, but would you want to come sit with me and my mate? I feel like I haven't seen you in ages!" They purred and smiled. They looked over to FalconFlight then back at MinnowPaw "Come sit with us whenever! I would be so happy if you did!" They purred to their little sister and padded off. "Hey, Falcon! Wanna come sit with me and my mate?" They asked with a smile at their brother "Come join us whenever you want!" They purred. They padded back over to their mate and exhaled. They plopped down next to BrightNight and purred at their mates warm body touching theiirs. "BacK!" They purred and twinned their tail with BrightNight's.

*-Lark"star"-*
She/her | 18 moons | Mind Reader - ACTIVE
A sleek dilute tortie she-cat with green eyes



Alright, decent enough crowd now, she might as well start. Swallowing the bundle of nerves in her throat and pushing past the fear that wanted to claw at her heart and her eyes with so many stares on her (were some of them glaring at her? She could’ve sworn she saw some of them looking on her with barely concealed hostility…).

"First thing’s first…" she began, throat dry, "my trip to the Starcave." A pause now, try and gauge everyone’s reactions, were they nervous? Did they show any open fear, distain or hostility? "A few nights ago now, Pebblespash accompanied me to the Starcave to speak with our ancestors. I don’t wish to lie to any of you, so I will tell you what happened there." Another pause, let that sink in. She didn’t think it sounded like she had good news, personally, but would anyone else pick up on that? "I was not taken to speak with StarClan. I was brought to the Dark Forest where I was told I would need to prove my worth to earn my lives. I still only have the one." ’Just like Gingerstar…’ she added to herself.

"As this is the case, I also did not receive the title of ‘Star.’ It’s up to all of you if that’s what you wish to address me as in camp, however, I expect to be addressed as ‘Larkstar’ in the presence if any other clan. There’s no reason for them to know any of this too." That taken care of now, Lark paused and allowed that information to sink in. If anyone had any complaints, she wanted to hear about them, wanted to see them in their faces, in the twitch of their whiskers or the flicking of their tails. Perhaps a good chunk of them didn’t like her and didn’t want her in this position, but maybe her honesty would at least count for something.

On to the next bit of news, this time no less bad than the last. "I’m sure you’ve all scented loner in the territory recently," she spoke, trying to hide her annoyance, but the flicking of her tail and the slight hardening of her expression gave away her thoughts. "Well, we can put a name to that scent now. William. From what I’ve been told, his goal is to capture and kill one of our own, but he’s not above killing those who are not his target either. Ashwolf was a victim of his, and William showed up during his burial, his goal, seemingly, to kill me and Sootpelt - the only two who were present.

Luckily, he was chased off, but in the confrontation, we learned something important. You might notice that Splashfur is not in camp, that’s because he is working with William and was exiled upon discovery of his treachery." It still made anger bubble in her stomach to think about Splashfur’s betrayal and William’s motives. She should’ve seen it coming… should’ve known… "If you see or scent anything suspicious in the territory, inform me or a Lionheart." With all that out of the way, she could move on to less depressing or life concerning news.

Larkwing forced a smile to her face, taking in a deep breath to push down the anger at all the aforementioned news. "Speaking of Lionhearts, we have quite a few positions open and a promotion to offer. Nightspark, I’d like for you to take on the responsibility of Head Lionheart if you’re willing." She hopped he was willing, but it wouldn’t be the end of the world if he wasn’t, there was always Pebblesplash to ask in the event he didn’t care for the added responsibility.

Frostpaw and Sootpelt looked at each other, while as William was mentioned Charredkit nervously hid behind Sootpelt. He didn't want people overreacting about William being after him.

Pricklestep called out. "I have no clue why they don't trust you I trust you with my whole heart and this you should have earned those lives." he took a breath. "You are still my leader lives or not" he meowed warmly.

[sorry short post]

[Katiethewolfchild]

Toadkit listened. Oh so Larkwing only has one life like Gingerstar and Beanstar? Who cares? Not me, that's for sure. If she die'll just get another leader. Whatever. Nothing that I can use for my purpose is happening yet. I don't care if their is a loner in the territory. I don't care if a warrior was plotting with him and got exiled. I don't care if Nighspark is getting promoted. I will pretend to care thought because everyone else is weak and does care and them liking me will be useful. Beekit probably would if she knew what was happening. I'm pretty sure she doesn't know anything because I am pretty sure she is stupid.

Rabbitkit and Blossomkit listened. They wanted to be apprentices so they could help but they were stuck in camp cause they were stupid kits.

Wishkit listened. She wanted to learn all about herbs. She should probably focus on the meeting for now thought.

Sparrowkit listened. Their was a loner in the territory who wanted to capture somebody and then make them dead! The loner needed to go bye-bye like Mommy did. Why did Mommy go bye-bye? She loves Mommy. Not the loner. The loner doesn't go in the territory. Mommy goes in camp. Not far, far away,

Deerkit listened. Why was the loner in the territory? She was perfectly aware that loners were supposed to live in the outskirts. Not be in the territory and try to capture and kill RiverClan cats.

Beekit sniffed everything next to Toadkit.

Toadkit ignored Beekit even though the other kit was the most annoying cat in the whole universe.

A cheerful voice captured Falconflight's attention and he immediately twisted his head around to where the sound came from. Oh it was his sibling Cinnamonswirl and their mate! Hmm and they were calling him to sit with them?...How could he refuse that offer!

"Alright I'm coming!" he declared brightly and got up to his paws and bounded over taking a place beside Cinnamon and grinning happily pleased to be with his kin hopefully more of their siblings would join.

He was about to make small talk with the rest of the group but Larkwing's voice cut him off so he just moved his gaze back to her and tried his best to listen to what she had to say.

But what the tom heard made him sink his claws hard into the ground, Lark hadn't got her nine lives?! A rogue and one of his, former, clanmates tried to kill her?! What the hell?! Was Starclan trying to curse them or something? Cause it certainly seemed that way!

A low growl escaped his throat at the news "Damn...how unlucky are we?" he really hoped that things would get better soon and that the rebellion would be put to a stop...but wishing for something doesn't always work...

The grey tabby didn't really listen to the last part of the news, something about Lionhearts? He didn't care about ranks anymore only about the safety of his kin...his mood had been soured now great...

Springpaw sat there giving a few slow lazy blinks as she listened to things bit by bit. She found it no surprise that Starclan wouldn't give her any lives, it seemed they still wanted to be greedy with them. Yet she found it disturbing that it was the dark forest that approached her. Did starclan not see it as worth doing their part and just hand it over to their dark counterpart? That in itself sounded a bit frightening to hear about, and it seemed they had the same feelings as starclan.

She perked up, someone dared to attack anyone on riverclan territory, how stupid can one be?! She hadn't noticed any loner scent anywhere then again, she hadn't been taken out of camp that often. It was good to hear that the numb skull had gotten at least taken care of. She would have preferred for them to not be of this world anymore but she didn't get to make that choice. She refrained from an outright snarl at hearing about the traitor, how could one go against their clanmates?! Good riddance, she at least would treat them with hostility if she ever saw them on their territory, no peace for anyone who betrayed the clan. She let out a long sigh as she calmed herself some, sometimes she wished she was a kit again because then things were calm.

Green eyes rolled over to look and see where the mentioned cat was sitting after hearing his name called. Oh, for once it was some good news and not something dreadful. She would honestly prefer to hear good news over anything else, anything bad was starting to get a bit tiring. Springpaw sat there, idly flicking an ear she heard someone yell out about trusting Lark. She didn't have anything to say to anything, she wanted to but chose not to speak out.

Sleekfur hobbled over, still getting used to having three legs. He wondered if his friends Cherryswirl or Bluefang were nearby.

Ripplekit bounded over, but stopped, turned back for the nursery, and called for her bestie. "Badgerbestie, let's go! Clan meeting!" Badgerbestie had left the other meeting early because she was feeling bad. But now, according to super important warrior Cherryswirl, she was the clan's official cheerer-upper. Once Badgerkit arrived (hopefully), she strutted over, waving others away. "Out the way, official Clan Cheerer-Upper coming through. Yeah, I'm important." Once she arrived at the front, she blinked up towards Larkbestie expectantly. "Hey there Larkbestie! What duties do you have for your loyal clan cheerer-upper today? By the way, I was appointed by super ultra legendary Cherryswirl."

Meadowkit ran in circles around her mother, hoping her sister would join in.
