Birchpaw rolled her eyes, baring her teeth in the beginnings of a snarl.

´´It was Fadingsun, Cocoonwillow. Fadingsun, the cat most likely to be Birdsnow´s deputy.´´

Birchpaw narrowed her eyes and glared at Cocoonwillow. ´´Don´t tell me to be quiet.´´

The beefed up molly leaned closer to Doedapple and further away from Cocoonwillow.

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze looked up from where he was working on repairing the warrior’s den alongside Adderpaw and Fading sun to see Birdsnow calling Riverclan to attention. The Tom shook out his pelt lightly, as to prevent agitating any of his injuries but they still stung and his tail burned.

The warrior turned to Adderpaw and Fadingsun, a nervous tone in his mew as he spoke, “If you guys wanted…I-I mean you can sit with me. I’ll return to building after the meeting.” With that the tom padded over to the gathering cats. Settling among the crowd before giving his full attention to Birdsnow.

His leader looked worse for wear but it was as if she didn’t feel a single scratch in her body, it was…impressive but worrying. Seabreeze didn’t want Birdsnow collapsing from overworking herself, he cared for her in the a warrior cared for their leader but also….Riverclan would fall with her likely.

With a shiver treading down his damaged spine, Seabreeze growled to himself and shook his head to clear it of such awful thoughts. Birdsnow was alright. Everything would be okay. Riverclan would heal.

Hearing Seabreeze call to her Adderpaw smiled and chuckled softly to herself before walking over to sit with him. She missed the feeling with being able to sit next to someone at the meeting ever since Ripplepelt.. She tried her best to not let out a sad sigh but she was her greatest friend. "This will give us time to think about how we should work moving forwards." She said looking to Seabreeze. "Besides, I need to figure out how to make that roof. This will give me time to think while I listen."

Adderpaw wondered what this meeting was going to be about. It was certainly going to be talking about the raid that happened in their own camp but what else was it going to entail? Were we going to just try to let it go and lick our wounds or would Birdsnow decided that instead taking land from Thunderclan was a good idea now. She hoped not. There was too much war exhaustion.

"Hey I bet I'm going to be called the deputy." Adderpaw purred confidently to Seabreeze. It was hard to tell if she was joking. "If not, I'm going to get my warrior name. I already have a warrior name picked out for myself."

Stagheart padded slowly to the Floodstones, his fur sticky with poultices and cobwebs from his deep wounds. He was still in pain, but didn't show it with a stoic look on his face and a strong gait. Behind him trailed Berrykit, practically shaking in excitement — this would be her apprentice ceremony, he presumed. Poor Birdsnow had a lot on her shoulders and yet she was still doing what she could.

She is more than capable to lead us well, I know it. Thank StarClan for her strength.

He settled down and wrapped his tail over his large paws, ears perked as he watched Rainpaw clamber over to Birdsnow. She would be naming a deputy today, no doubt. He was intrigued on who she would pick — he'd trust her decision, but a weighty thing like that could determine a Clan's history. He didn't exactly envy that kind of responsibility in RiverClan's current state.

Perhaps I'd be named a Lionheart...

He smirked to himself. He didn't think he spoke enough to make himself even noticed for that kind of role. Regardless, it didn't matter. What mattered was serving RiverClan in its time of need. And he'd do whatever he could to help it.

Berrykit could hardly keep her paws still, anxiously kneading the grass with her claws. Her dark pelt was groomed to a shine, a bright look in her eyes. This was it! It had to be — she was six moons old now. She'd be named an apprentice today and assigned a mentor!

At least, that's what Stagheart had told her. The kit wrestled with being both anxious and excited, the fear of the unknown and the formal launch into her training both terrifying yet thrilling. She sat next to Stagheart for comfort, eyes darting around every cat in the clearing as they arrived. But she wisely kept her mouth shut, a bit too fearful to draw any more attention to herself.

“Ocean waters rising above your neck

Seabreeze smiled slightly as Addedpaw joined him in their gathering crowd of cats. Some company before Birdsnow speaks would be nice, better than being left alone with his thoughts. The tom flicked his ears towards the she-cat as she spoke of the building work they would need to do after the meeting and with a sigh, Seabreeze agreed. The roof was going to be a pain to figure out.

The other molly continued, “Hey I bet I'm going to be called the deputy.” She mewed with a purr, “If not, I'm going to get my warrior name. I already have a warrior name picked out for myself.”

Seabreeze looked her and in a completely serious tone he answered, “I think you’d make a good deputy. You care a lot about Riverclan.” Though without waiting for the molly to respond he continued to respond with more of a purr in his mew. This was the longest he has ever really felt alright before, maybe Seabreeze should’ve started socializing sooner. His ears pinned as a thought entered his mind, accusing him of replacing Cloverpaw so quickly. Ah, well he was alright.

Seabreeze shook his head lightly and hoped that Adderpaw wouldn’t question it too much, “What name would you choose for yourself?”

Goldfish smiled warmly. She'd just
been planning one before the meeting- as soon
as she was given the go-ahead by Minkpaw that
she could battle train Daisypaw. "I've felt better
before, Dais, but I'm getting better. I'll be fine. Always
am." she purred, bopping noses with Daisypaw playfully
before adding more firmly, "I'm glad I didn't. Don't know
what I'd do if you were in the battle, but I do know one thing-
Either you would've been killed, and/or I would've slaughtered
a few cats- not ideal for them. It's against the code, too, so I
wouldn't want to kill anyone unless I have to. Besides, they have
friends and families too. Daisypaw, If you or someone important
to you or the clan is in danger, do what needs to be done."
She sighed and flexed her leg, wincing. "I'll train you as soon
as I get the okay from Minkpaw and Cobwebpaw, don't worry. And
if you ever want to tag along with a friend, you can. I give you
permission until I'm fully healed again. Which won't be long."
she made sure to add. These wounds wouldn't stop her from training
her apprentice. She then brightened up again. "I wonder what's
going to be announced. Probably new Lionhearts or a deputy, I hope!
Oh, or a warrior." She wanted for any of those to happen. She
wouldn't get picked for deputy probably, Bird would most likely
choose a Lionheart. Speaking of which, she did in fact want to be a
Lionheart one day. She hoped Daisypaw might get to be one. She
would be as fit as Goldfish could get her from training.

Daisy smiled. Alrighty. She purred. As her mentor continued, Daisypaw grew lost in thought. She thought of claws tearing her apart, blood soaking the clearing. Her mentor standing over her with terror. Her unmoving body as she lay, eyes open to slits and dull. Just as Goldfish spoke of the Lionhearts, her gaze struck with fear as she returned to the present. She shook her head viciously, then spoke with a shaky voice. Yeah probably.. I hope to be a Lionheart one day. I heard they’re the most respected cats in the clan! She meowed, the excitement in her tone shadowing her true feelings. She couldn’t help but shiver with dread as her mind raced back to the terrifying depths of despair she had been thinking of only moments before.
She felt her breathing grow faster and the world grew fuzzy, but she sat up straight, the only hint of her state being her breathing and the anxiety brewing in her eyes. Don’t worry, Daisypaw.. It’s just your imagination. Sometimes it gets the better of you but you must persevere through it. She heard a small voice whisper and she glanced around, her eyes wide in surprise, but she found no one and she only felt her nose brush fur: Goldfish’s fur. But she felt the presence of a cat. Her own size. But there was only a group of apprentices. All of which were far away.
Goldfish… Was there an apprentice who… died… before my apprenticeship? There was an apprentice Dandeliontuft mentions quite frequently. Willowpaw I believe… Her anxiety mixed with worry. Was she destined to go out like this.. Odd cat she felt nearby. Ugh! Daisypaw! Get your thoughts straight! You sound like a kit with no sense! Daisy told herself silently, a look of annoyance quickly creeping through her.

Goldfish immediately pressed up to Daisypaw. She
breathed long and slow, trying to show Daisypaw she
should relax and match her breathing with her own. It
would calm her. She felt terrible Daisypaw had to hear
about cats who'd died as apprentices. "Hey, hey, Dais,
breathe. Breathe." She closed her eyes to suck in and
out a deep breath, before looking down at her apprentice
again. "There's been a lot of apprentices die before you,
Daisypaw. A lot. I-I don't want to scare you talking about it.
Willowpaw did die, and every death is unfortunate. I don't
know much about them." she admitted with a thin exhale.
She then shifted her weight. "Daisypaw, you're acting really
weird. Talk to me. What's going on? Don't make me drag you
to the medicine den." despite her light and relaxed tone,
she felt genuine worry for Daisypaw. She cared deeply for her
health and well-being as she would if they were kin. If it was
a cat bullying her, she'd become an apprentice bully-buster and
full-time cat therapist a protector for her
apprentice. No one messed with a cat she cared about- especially
if they were younger than her. Younger than a warrior, too.

Before she was late to the meeting the molly moved out of the warriors den to sit beside her clanmates. Was the deputy going to be named? What maybe a medicine cat or two? It would be the best thing for her clan if one of them was coming true. That should prove they would never allow anyone to walk over them.

Daisypaw gazed at Goldfish, wide-eyed.
N-No! I’m fine! Just- Dizzy. Tired. Nothing wrong with me! She lied, her ears flat against her head and a large, forced grin fixed on her face. But ofcourse what she said wasn’t true.
She felt like she would pass out at any second. Dread pricked at tips of her fur. The thoughts of her fighting and dying hit her again, harder and more intense.
She felt her head go light for a moment and she felt herself struggling to breathe or even stay away. She couldn’t shake her anxiety and she was trembling like it was too cold, despite having her long, silky coat to keep her warm. She felt her vision fade to darkness, but she hadn’t passed out. She finally got a grip of herself, realizing she only closed her eyes, opening them again. Daisypaw, please. Calm down. You’re fine. Just a little too much to.. think about. She gave a small shaky sigh as she lifted her gaze.
She felt a small pain in her tail and nearly freaked out, jumping like she was leaping a stream. She turned and frowned, ears now pinned as she gazed at a kit, whom bounced off to their mother. Bounding after them, she grabbed the kit, holding them tightly, bringing the kit back, and placing him infront of her, trying hard not to toss the kit.
Keep your paws to yourself! If you don’t, I’ll make you. A squeal of terror arose from the kit and they ran faster, darting away from Daisypaw and hiding behind their mother, who gave her a look of shock and frustration, ears pinned, eyes to slits, tail lashing, and claws extends, but she didn’t come over.
Daisypaw sat back down, just gazing at her paws in embarrassment. She didn’t like to snap. But that kit. That god damn kit. I’ll kill that thing if he dare come near me for the next moon. She told herself, tail lashing and fur bristled. With a sigh, she stopped, just gazing blankly at nothing in particular.

Half of Minnowsplash wanted nothing better than to dash off to the med den and check up on Duststorm and maybe go hunting for the Clan again, but the other winning side told them to stay put and at least wait for Birdsnow's announcement to be over.

Gaze still glittering, it managed to catch sight of Cobs coming from the apprentice's den. Her obvious worry only made Dusklion chuckle as she managed to get herself to her paws and limp over to the she-cat. Forgotten was the patrol that she had missed in favor of being healed by the young cat. "Oh, this is nothin' - 'nfact, I feel better already!" Plopping down next to the kid and Eaglekit - who got a grin flashed her way as well - she let out a sigh, her non-cobweb-wrapped ear flicking. "You think Birds is gonna announce a deputy this meetin?" she asked, already pulling her eyes back up to the leader as her tail swept the ground around her. The mere thought sent shivers of excitement down her.

Eaglekit deflated in relief a little as Cobwebpaw sat nearby, the kit having grown quite fond of her in recent moons. Dusklion hobbled over as well, and Eaglekit eyed her warily. She was sure the molly was fine, but she was still a little wary around cats who weren't Cobwebpaw or Mossykit. When Dusklion mentioned deputy, Eaglekit ground her teeth together. In her time in RiverClan, she had never once understood the idea of deputy, as the clan had been in shambles the entire time. But, from the vague notion she had, it meant a second in command. She looked up at Dusklion. Hm. She would be surprised if the molly didn't get the position.

What she was interested in, however, was medicine cats. Who would be the healer? Would she be kicked out of the medicine den? Yes, probably. She was about apprentice aged now, so she supposed any meeting she might be getting a... a... oh no. The large kit fluffed up in fear, wide eyes turning to the Floodstone. Was she about to be assigned a mentor? Oh no, she didn't want to train to be a warrior! She didn't want to fight--at least, she didn't think so? Eaglekit began kneading the frozen ground, tension in her shoulders.

He vividly remembered Treepaw gushing about that at Haven Springs. He was excited for him, his paws kneading the ground in patient excitement.

Cormorantpaw
long-furred, smoky-black mackerel tabby with bits of white; yellow eyes
purrks: prison break - tier 1

It’s been so long. It had been so long since she had been around the familiar trenches of RiverClan territory. Each step that she took felt heavy, her jet-black coat ragged and coated to the brim with scarring; dry blood tainting itself onto random portions of her body. Everything had changed since she had last been in RiverClan; even more so with the fact that Beanstar - or in her own words when she had been much younger, Big Beanie - was no longer entitled to the position of leader, and was replaced with a molly whom she held little to zero knowledge obtaining. A good portion of the cats that she once knew had practically either died or left RiverClan without leaving a singular trace behind in their wake. However, the smallest pit in her heart ached as she had searched around aimlessly for one cat in particular, the one cat who had stepped up and become more of a parental role model for her than Goosecurl ever did: Lilycreek. Cormorantpaw didn’t know where the soft-hearted, motherly molly resided. She searched the nursery, the warriors’ den, everywhere just to try to find her Auntie Lily. Where could she have gone? Did she leave? Or did… did she die? The final thought made her stomach curl uneasily, a tinge of hopelessness digging deeply into the darkest crevices of her mind. There was no way that Lilycreek could be dead. She was a strong, but independent molly. There wasn’t any way that she would just drop dead just like that.

The tabby herself had just listened to a meeting being called, her eyes narrowing down as the rancid stench of blood reeked into her sensitive nostrils. Alongside a slight, more disgusting mixture of ThunderClan. When and how did ThunderClan get themselves involved in her clan? Did it explain why most of her clan-mates looked so… battered and beaten down to the bone? Cormorantpaw felt her suspicions run on the high end, feeling tempted to question one of her clan-mates about the whole ordeal of the sickening stench. But, even with the urge to question, her mind still felt like nothing but a blur. A weighty tiredness that still bore itself into her veins like a snake’s fangs within sensitive flesh. Bright, gleaming yellow orbs now stained by the dullness of exhaustion that laced itself among her limbs. She came back only not so long ago, and yet, it felt like an eternity since she had been in the terrain of her home. Of RiverClan. The smells and sounds were everything to her; the quiet rushing of the rivers that resided next to her clan and the natural water-like smell that eroded itself off the rivers themselves. It was everything, but something still felt missing… a place in her heart that felt like it needed something that she never thought possible.

Her eyes glanced around the crowd, landing on a familiar pelt that the mackerel tabby never thought she’d see again. Her tired eyes locked over towards the dismantled figure, her stomach bouncing with both guilt and pride at seeing the one figure that she never truly thought she’d see again. “S… Springpaw?” The thirteen-moon-old apprentice choked, her eyes settled upon the familiar tortoiseshell coat that she had not laid her eyes upon in moons or longer. The tabby felt tempted to rush towards the feline, but hesitance peaked at her core from the remains of dry blood still visible on her dark coat, her nose burning against the acrid stench of both fresh and new blood that tainted everyone else. “Is… is that you?”

❀•°❀°•❀
‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿

The one-eyed molly was still sitting by the medicine cat's den, she hadn't moved an inch. Then again she hadn't bothered too much about finding a spot closer, she should do it if she was planned to be made a warrior at this meeting. Springpaw didn't mind if she had to walk a bit, she wasn't one to sit still for long anyway it bored her too easily. Her lone green eye glanced around once more at those gathered so far, a lot of her clanmates were injured still and the place felt a mess. Sharp claws dug into the ground beneath her in anger, she wouldn't understand how they dared to invade their home like that. She understood that they had a couple of idiots pull stunts just because they ran on nothing but pure emotion. Why did they have so many who only listened to their feelings and not once stopped to think of the consequences of whatever actions they took? She guessed some would never learn, just like a few cats she could think of at the top of her head.

She brought a paw to her eye as she felt a twinge of pain shoot through her, forgetting that she shouldn't try to move her eye. Springpaw looked back over to see a lone cat standing there, then looking right at her. The lionheart narrowed her eye for a minute, she couldn't recognize this one at first, was this another cat that was supposedly out for her blood? She had already gotten threatened once and then supposedly twice when she hadn't been around. Then she heard them speak her name and the question afterward, wait..she knew that voice. Her one-lone eye widened as she finally remembered the name of the voice and she couldn't believe it! "Cormie!?" she shot up, was she really going to start bawling right now?! She didn't wait for any kind of reply as she jumped over to her and tried to tackle her to the ground. "You're back! You're back!" she was at least mindful to not be loud.

~Fluttermane: 28 moons old, RiverClan~

Fluttermane looked at the two apprentices, smiling and hoping that they would become great warriors in the future. She also noticed Weepingpaw ask her what her name is, "My name's Fluttermane." She responded. She thought about the meeting again, maybe there was a possibility of new Lionhearts as well? It was a difficult thought to process, as Lionhearts haven't been a clan priority for a little bit. Another priority were new warriors in the clan, like Treepaw was going to be. But she would have to hold off on those for now, since Birdsnow hadn't made her first announcement yet.

Hopefully the meeting would go well too. Fluttermane didn't want any rogues trespassing randomly, especially during an event as big as a clan meeting. She was also a bit concerned with how Birdsnow would lead, especially being so young. But she knew that Birdsnow was a great warrior destined with delightful leadership ahead of her. I'm happy for Birdsnow, Fluttermane thought as she looked up and smiled at the new leader of RiverClan. This was gonna be a new era for her clan, and she was excited to see what it brought.

Back at the two apprentices at hand, Fluttermane spoke to both of them "Birdsnow is one of the nicest cats in the clan, I really hope her leadership goes well". She hoped that both the apprentices would agree and that they didn't have anything against Birdsnow. Because that would be problematic. Very problematic. She didn't have to worry about that right now though, because this was a clan meeting. And clan meetings should always be peaceful. No matter what happens.

She also glanced around the clan, many familiar warriors, apprentices, and queens drew her eye as potential great members of RiverClan. I love this place, even if it is a bit chaotic sometimes. Fluttermane thought. Oh, what was she thinking. Every member of RiverClan was great, except for traitors of course. But again, she didn't have to worry about those types of cats now. She should just be concerned about the ongoing meeting. And not much else really, as there was really nothing to worry about besides new High Ranks and Lionhearts.

Talonpaw wanted to hear what pathetic excuses and promises would come out of her maw this time. Honestly, he was surprised she had lived through the battle. He had thought Bumblestar would kill Birdsnow, and even when that didn't happen he had figured someone from RiverClan would have finished it.

Her eyes narrowed as she watched Birdsnow thoughtfully. Perhaps the RiverClan Leader would like to go hunting with her and Doedapple after the meeting.

Pupils dilated so that the darks of her eyes matched the dark circles under her eyes as the leader stared down at the cats below. Ugh. There were so many cats to yell at and she felt like she was going to pass out. Or pass away.

"Before I start, I'm a little out of it so if I make a mistake or miss someone, feel free to correct me."
Reaching down, she stroked Rainpaw’s back as he joined her on the stone. Yeah, she would have to break him of that habit eventually since he was already almost warrior aged, but he was traumatized and seemed to need her, and honestly she needed him. That was her kid and- also currently the only thing keeping her from collapsing off the Floodstone. Not that she let that show, obviously. She had seen countless times where leaders showed weakness and then were torn apart. Not her. Absolutely not.

”I’m sure you all know by now that ThunderClan raided us a day and a half ago. I’m very proud of… how most of you fought. That was messy and bloody and eventually ThunderClan will pay dearly for what they’ve done to us. I saw so many of you show immense bravery and strength, and I’m very proud of those of you that put your all into defending our home.”

”Moonfoot, Pricklefoot, Troutfall, Duckshade, Creekpelt, Flutterpaw all lost their lives in the raid and their burial and vigil will be held tonight. There were multiple other former RiverClanners who showed up and gave their lives, and for that they will be allowed to be buried in the Thicket as well, but this doesn’t mean that those of you who returned will be welcomed back with open paws. If you don’t talk to me and explain yourselves asap, I’m kicking you out, I don’t care.”

Searching a couple of cats out in the crowd, she felt her broken tail lashing with annoyance. ”Duststorm. Mintslip. You will meet me in my den promptly after the meeting. Since you thought it was a good idea to attack your own Clanmates in the middle of a raid, I would suggest that you find it an even better idea to show up or I’ll be forced to track you down and drag you to the border myself. And if anyone else was problematic at the battle, feel free to report them to me, my deputy or the lionhearts- who I’ll be announcing later one.”

Oh yeah. There was some kit pretending to be an apprentice- that wouldn’t go. Absolutely not. Searching the young cat out, she kept her voice calm and gentle, but unwavering. ”Sunpaw. I don’t know how you became an apprentice because Larkstar didn’t make you one and neither did I, so you shouldn’t be leaving camp or training like you are an apprentice.” (ooc note - since you held your own apprentice ceremony, sunpaw’s ceremony doesn’t count and she will be remaining as Sunkit until you submit an official ceremony ) Birdsnow fixed her firm stare on the kit, brief frustration appearing on her face but not wanting to completely humiliate the young cat. But of course, her attention was captured by yet another fool.

Her ears pricked and she stared down at Doedapple. Some random cat who thought it would be wise to insult Birdsnow as the leader stood up her, exhausted, wounded and pissed off. ”Doedapple, you don’t have to listen to my ‘random babbling’. In fact, you can get the hell out if you’re going to disrespect me because frankly, I’m not in the mood.” Her frigid gaze darted to Birchbranch, not sure why the warrior was yapping so much and looking so pissed off but oh well. She’d kick her out too if she caused too many problems.

Searching a specific dark warrior out, she tried to lock eyes with her. ”I haven’t found candidates for medicine cats due to my ideal candidates disobeying my strict orders, so as I search for an official medicine cat and apprentice, I would like to ask Marigoldleap, as a former medicine cat yourself, if you’d be willing to take care of the Clans healing for a few weeks?”

Maybe cats would get pissed because she wasn’t picking a medicine cat. Especially since there were quite a few candidates; but she wasn’t going to pick someone who blatantly disobeyed her orders and then, in some cases, dared to try to go so far as guilt trip her and Fadingsun. Marigoldleap was the obvious choice, and she would stick by it.

Birchpaw / Birchbranch
Beefed Up Tier 1, Lyrebirds Lullaby
a pretty, dappled light-brown-and-white she-cat with deep amber eyes.
´´Looking like I know what to do with it.´´

____

Wait. Wait, wait, wait.

Doedapple hadn´t done anything, so why was Birdsnow yowling at her?

Birchpaw´s irritation hardened into anger at Birdsnow´s words, and her fur bristled. Her mind screamed, ´Jump up and defend your littermate´, but if she did, then Birchpaw would be yowled at, too.

Yet the she-cat couldn´t help but think it was all her fault. She´d gotten Doedapple into this mess. Doedapple wouldn´t have been yelled at if it hadn´t been for her.

Turning to her sister, Birchpaw forced herself to calm down. ´´I´m sorry I got you in trouble,´´ She whispered.

The dappled warrior gave her sister a sympathetic glance, then she yowled at Birdsnow as she got to her paws.

´´I´m sorry, I´m sorry!´´ Her amber eyes glistened with remorse. ´´Don´t exile my sister. Please. She doesn´t deserve it. If any cat does, it is certainly not Doedapple.´´

As long as she could get Birdsnow to stand down and let Doedapple remain a member of RiverClan, Birchpaw would be plenty happy. If not, she´d go with her.

Birchpaw was right on that account.

Even if she had said ´I do´, Birdsnow probably wouldn´t have believed her. She knew the leader had seen her tackle Drizzlecloud and save Frostpetal - or at least tried to. She still didn´t know whether Frostpetal would die or not.

Birchpaw shot a pleading look at Cocoonwillow - a look to get off of her tail and help get Birdsnow to let their littermate stay.

[ Blazing // poppy // Rogueheart ]

[ still on for the badger attack, blaze? birch could have cocoon go with her. ]

[ poppy, i don´t know whether this would count for birch to be addressed as birchpaw {because of her punishment} or birchbranch {because of the battle}, so i´m addressing her as birchpaw unless stated otherwise. ]

Moonpaw looked up as her nervousness took over her…was she one of the ones who was being kicked out? Would she be forced to leave…her home? If not then how would she be a warrior? She’s scared to fight, only thing she can do is swim and hide.

Eaglekit glanced at Cobwebpaw when she chuckled at her, and the golden kit frowned petulantly. Did she look silly or something?? She glanced up at the Floodstone again. "'M fine," she meowed, kneading her paws into the ground. "Jus... on edge." She wanted to know the new high ranking positions, but refused to get her hopes up. She was still a kit, after all. Eaglekit cast another glance at Cobwebpaw, unable to stay upset for very long. "Ta think I'm almost old enough to be an apprentice..." She shuddered. "It's hard to believe."

When Birdsnow spoke again, Eaglekit paid rapt attention, following the leader's gaze as she called out certain cats for being nuisances. She called out cats who had just come back, and Eaglekit wondered anxiously if that included Rushwater. She hadn't seen him since the battle, either, and she didn't have much hope he would return. He seemed to have a habit of leaving her behind.

When Birdsnow announced a temporary medicine cat, Eaglekit was surprised, but pleased. Marigoldleap? She didn't recall the name. She glanced over at the cat Birdsnow mentioned, thinking. If Birdsnow thought it was a good choice, then Eaglekit supposed it was. The molly was being congratulated quietly, and Eaglekit found herself smiling softly in her direction. She just hoped the rest of the clan was nicer to her than they were to Tansypaw... would Marigoldleap let her hang out in the medicine cat den anymore? Probably not, especially since she would soon be an apprentice. She sighed, but found disappointment didn't stick to her. She just wanted everything to run smoothly, regardless if she trained to be a warrior or a medicine cat.

But then Birdsnow's words really hit her. Potential candidates who had disobeyed orders? Panic began to set in. She glanced at Cobwebpaw to gauge her reaction as well. Did that mean Cobwebpaw? Minkpaw? Her? Surely not, surely she hadn't even been a candidate to begin with. Who was Birdsnow talking about? Oh dear oh dear... Eaglekit began to do what she excelled at, which was overthink it.

Sweetsong listened, though she didn't speak out. Doing so would only invite Birdsnow's scorn onto her. It was bad enough her leader was discrediting her for merely talking to a lost outsider. Sweetsong knew she should be angry. To speak out on this unfairness...to plead her case. But the news, or at least the implication, that she had been one of the medicine cat candidates broke her heart to pieces. She had sullied her chance, ruined it because of her own efforts to be kind.

She didn't even understand how exactly she had disobeyed orders. She had confronted the kittypet...it wasn't her fault her leader and Fadingsun had come upon them so quickly. But just because their hackles weren't raised and claws unsheathed, they were being punished.
It was unfair, and Sweetsong didn't bother to hide her tears as she stared at Birdsnow from where she was crouched at the edge of the clearing. Doing her best to be a pebble. Small and insignificant once more.

Seabreeze
He/him | Riverclan Warrior | Moons: 15 | Purrks: Sweet as a Flower | The Collector | Ultimate Predator |
“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze looked up to the leader, ears forward and his body still as he paid rapt attention to her words. Grief welled up in his chest as she listed his fallen clan mates and he couldn't help but wonder if Cloverpaw would be the one to help guide and greet them. She would, he tried to comfort himself in that way, Cloverpaw would make sure they came to terms with what happened to them and they all died noble deaths protecting the clan. Still, it was so awful that those rats took them from the clan.

Birdsnow continued and Seabreeze felt horror flood his mind. What?! Warriors of their clan attacked their our team members during the raid? Why would they do that, it was confusing and a lot was happening but surely they couldn't have gotten that confused. His gaze traveled to the warriors and he felt the fur on his spine raise slightly, the tom's eyes narrowing at them, watching for any reaction or remorse to cross their faces. Birdsnow would deal with them, but how could they? Seabreeze felt betrayed by the cats even though he wasn't even the one attacked by them.

The sandy grey-blue tom shook his head to clear of the nasty thoughts, he didn't want to feel anger right now. He was so burnt out but...once more the tom looked to the listed members, he would have to keep a close eye on them. Especially if they went anywhere near the medicine den or nursery. There wasn't a whole lot that could give reasoning to their actions and Seabreeze didn't want them turning on Riverclan again against the most vulnerable.Ah, didn't Seabreeze just say he wanted his thoughts to turn away from negatives-

Seabreeze almost missed the next bit of news, but his ears flicked and he caught Birdsnow's words about a kit playing apprentice during the raid.Why was everyone being so reckless!? Kits shouldn't be out during that fight! By Starclan's name, Seabreeze didn't even think that young apprentices should be out there? Behind his eyes, as he squeezed them harshly shut, came the limp body of Cloverpaw. She was also young, probably only a bit older than Sunkit. He ducked his head and tried to keep his breathing relatively steady. After biting his tongue the warrior turned his gaze back to his leader.

The leader snapped rightfully at a warrior daring to talk bad about there leader right after a raid. When there needed to be a meeting to help calm the clan and organize it after such an event. They said she was babbling? Seabreeze lashed his tail, only to wince harshly at the sparks of pain that burned his spine in response. Hmph, he settled on huffing, Birdsnow handled it.

Marigoldleap, the tom purred as he thought, finally some good news. After a deep breath the tom looked around for the temporary medicine cat, happy that the clan could finally start feeling a bit more stable with someone named, error temporarily named, but named nonetheless. Cobweb, Minkpaw, and Spottedstream were doing a fantastic job but without an official or even unofficial cat things were sure to be starting to get confusing in the medicine den. Seabreeze should ask Adderpaw if she'd like to go on a patrol after this. Herb, as they needed them surely, or hunting as with so many warriors out of commission the warriors still would need to feed all the mouths.

"Congratulations, Marigoldleap, I'm happy that you're able to help Riverclan." The warrior wasn't really aiming for the other cat to hear him, as he didn't want to talk over Birdsnow on accident but he wanted to thank the warrior for stepping up to such an enormous and important task for the clan. He should ask if they would need any help with herbs or anything, surely getting tossed into such a role so quickly, while honorable, can be a cause for disorganization and a bit of a need for help.

After the warrior's den is fixed though, Seabreeze looked back to the den, it was looking much cleaner and most of the walls already looked more stable and the brambles would help a lot in the horrid case that something like this happens again. Adderpaw said that she had an idea for the roof and a cat like her is sure to have a good idea. Seabreeze wilted a bit, starting to feel guilty for his performance during the raid and then his lack of help for the building. He needed to do better, for Riverclan and for Cloverpaw.

Adderpaw listened as the meeting went on and found it annoying how many cats decided to disrespect the clan as so. She wished that she could do something for this clan, something greater than she already was. The young apprentice wanted more than anything than to become a deputy. Adderpaw wasn't sure how she was going to show Birdsnow that she was going to be the right cat for the job but she just had to keep trying. Had to keep helping the clan. Till she was dead that was what she was going to do.

When it came to be known that there was no official medicine cat being picked due to the ones she was thinking of not listening to orders Adderpaw had to wonder. Who was the cat she was thinking of making the medicine cat apprentice before the events happened. What orders did they break to make her change her mind. Her eyes drifted over the cats that were called out for doing stupid stuff and she didn't see anything medicine caty in them at all. Maybe in another life Adderpaw would be a medicine cat, but not this one.

Finally she looked over back to Seabreeze after having grown silent for a long time. "I wonder if someone else will show up to be a promising full time medicine cats. At this rate I'd throw myself at the door if I wasn't destined for deputy." Adderpaw murmured to the warrior. Herbs and blood. That seemed like a life to lead... Being closer to Starclan made it even worse. "There is so much work to do in this clan but so little in the amount of cats that can keep up with what is needed..." She trailed off for a little bit to think. "Not once in my life I have seen this clan not be a hot mess and I think I'm going to have to wait a long time."

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Adderpaw's mew distracted Seabreeze from his dizzying thoughts and he looked to the apprentice, taking an extra moment to process what she said to him. He agreed, who would show up capable of being a medicine cat. He thought of his quick lessons with Spottedstream and then to the stars that awoke him in the night. Seabreeze knew some herbs, a good few even he admits but medicine cat? There were likely better options than him. It made him think for a moment who would've been, Birdsnow mentioned would've been if not for them breaking rules.

He shouldn't gossip even in his mind, it was Birdsnow's decision and he agrees with their need of a temporary cat. Seabreeze would continue learning medicine but only ever use the knowledge in the case if it was needed. Though...Seabreeze looked up to the leader, looking regal despite her injuries and the poor apprentice besides her, if she happened to call upon him he would answer. No way that would happen though.

"I don't care who the next medicine cat is as long as they stay put and serve the clan well." Riverclan needed stability during this time not more fleeting leaders or medicine cats or medicine cat apprentices. The tom took a deep breath and continued to speak, "I trust Birdsnow's judgement, whoever she picks will do brilliantly."

"I hope you get deputy as well, I think you would serve the clan well, though maayybbeeeee not this meeting." Seabreeze added with a small, light hearted laugh. Though the sandy grey-blue tom sobered as the rest of Adderpaw's sentence processed in his head, "It has been rough for Riverclan, but I trust in Birdsnow, she'll lead us to greatness again and perhaps...later, with you by her side."

Flicking his ears, Seabreeze continued to speak, ignoring how his mind started to whisper that he was speaking too much and that Adderpaw was likely starting to get annoyed, "After the den, which you haven't shared your roof idea yet, maybe we should go out for herbs or hunting if you don't have plans. I worry that with the amount of warriors injured the clan will struggle to feed itself, but that's silly, Riverclan is strong."

"Ah yes my greatness will just have to wait a little while longer." Adderpaw joked back before letting out a little sigh. "Don't take anything I say as Birdsnow not doing a good job its just there's a lot of deep rooted issues that will take a lot of time to mend.... I hope I am there one day to help fix those issues." Adderpaw hummed. She wondered if she was doing enough just as an apprentice or if she would need a position of power to do some real influence. Having so many cats who would look up to you would make getting things done easier, Adderpaw hoped.

Ah right the den. "My plans are a secret till we get back to work." She mewed with a little devilish grin knowing that she was being difficult on purpose. "Though going on a gathering mission does sound like a very good idea. Recent patrols just came in with prey so maybe we should go out and get even more herbs? There's so many injured that I can only imagine how quickly we are going through herbs." Adderpaw thought. She was worried that they were going to end up running out of prey or herbs despite how many healthy cats they sent out.

Seabreeze huffed at the apprentice, then stuck his tongue out at her playfully, "I take it back, no Adder deputy-" Then anxiety snuck in and he quickly stapled onto the joke, "I was kidding by the way, sorry, I- you probably knew I was joking but, umm, still. Sorry." It was a shame, he almost forgot about his thoughts for a bit and was able to be normal for a few minutes but alas Seabreeze wasn't normal and will never be normal again. The tom turned his attention to the next thing,

"An herb patrol would be good, it's likely that they would need cobwebs, marigold for sure but we could check in with Marigoldleap about what is running low. After the den of course, I hope to get the roof done and get herbs before tomorrow but...we'll see if time allows that." Thyme likely as well but that'll be after they check and know for sure. Should they try and invite others as well? He looked around the warriors, apprentices, and other members of the clan that surrounded him, perhaps.

"Should we invite some other cats as well? It may be quicker and easier if it were just us to worry about though." Seabreeze has heard of many a patrol disbanding or members getting lost or some patrols not returning at all. It was sometimes sad, what Riverclan turned into, or has been ever since stability was lost in the higher ranks. Birdsnow was different though, she would fix everything on pawstep at a time and he and Adderpaw and everyone else would be there to help her. Speaking of, "I know it's a bit hypocritical for me to say but things will get better, we just have to help fix things one thing at a time. First the warriors den and then next thing we know we have a striving and thriving clan, strongest of them all!" The sandy grey-blue tom exaggerated slightly.

[ She/Her - Riverclan Queen -
Purrks: The Collector and Go With The Flow ]

Listening in on the meeting as Birdsnow began to continue. Her heart ached as the clanmates they lost were named. It should have never happened. They'd still be with them if only Thunderclan had kept to themselves until Riverclan was ready. Rats were all Thunderclan were. Shadowclan was starting to sound better or maybe just as bad. As a cat who had lived there all her life probably just as bad, but at her cousin Dawnstar would make sure her clanmates were well off before doing a raid.

Marigoldleap popped her head up to look around for the two cats called out for attacking their clanmates. The one thing she couldn't understand was cats wanting to harm the cats they grew up with. The large scarred molly could never think of hurting anyone in her clan. Some may be annoying, but they were a clan.

Now it was onto a kit who decided they were an apprentice, but she paid no mind to that. She could understand having to wait for a ceremony, but that was no excuse. Leaders always have the final say. Now it was onto the medicine cats or the still lack of. It seemed those who Birdsnow thought were good enough to because problems there was none this meeting. Though she hadn't expected what came next. Eyes were on her and she forced herself to look at Birdsnow. Her temporary medicine cat? She then looked at her clanmates, seeing eyes on her then her amber eyes met her son Cloudheart. He looked as if he wanted her to take it. It was only for a while. It couldn't hurt.

She saw many injured cats from the battle. They and those who didn't get injured needed a medicine cat even for just a little while until one was named. She had to do whatever it was to keep her clanmates safe. Marigoldleap felt it was good for the clan. She had to help them. "I'd be honored to help my clanmates, so yes I can be a temporary medicine cat until you find the right cats.", she replied with a respectful dip of her head.

Really? Riverclanners attacking Riverclanners! That made no sense! She couldn't believe it! At a time like this? Disaster. The younger molly glanced worriedly up at Birdsnow. Sighing softly, she awaited Birdsnow's future words.

Maggotkit

The young kit was still slightly shaken from the recent raid, but he was glad he wasn't a part of it. He could imagine how terrible he would be in battle. The young kit preferred exploring the world anyway.

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze huffed at the apprentice, then stuck his tongue out at her playfully, "I take it back, no Adder deputy-" Then anxiety snuck in and he quickly stapled onto the joke, "I was kidding by the way, sorry, I- you probably knew I was joking but, umm, still. Sorry." It was a shame, he almost forgot about his thoughts for a bit and was able to be normal for a few minutes but alas Seabreeze wasn't normal and will never be normal again. The tom turned his attention to the next thing,

"An herb patrol would be good, it's likely that they would need cobwebs, marigold for sure but we could check in with Marigoldleap about what is running low. After the den of course, I hope to get the roof done and get herbs before tomorrow but...we'll see if time allows that." Thyme likely as well but that'll be after they check and know for sure. Should they try and invite others as well? He looked around the warriors, apprentices, and other members of the clan that surrounded him, perhaps.

"Should we invite some other cats as well? It may be quicker and easier if it were just us to worry about though." Seabreeze has heard of many a patrol disbanding or members getting lost or some patrols not returning at all. It was sometimes sad, what Riverclan turned into, or has been ever since stability was lost in the higher ranks. Birdsnow was different though, she would fix everything on pawstep at a time and he and Adderpaw and everyone else would be there to help her. Speaking of, "I know it's a bit hypocritical for me to say but things will get better, we just have to help fix things one thing at a time. First the warriors den and then next thing we know we have a striving and thriving clan, strongest of them all!" The sandy grey-blue tom exaggerated slightly.

Duststorm puffed in alarm. She hadn't attacked anyone... She had tried to look intimidating at the start, fluffing her fur out, hissing and spitting, swiping her claws in the air... Did she catch someone's fur?

The only moment it could have looked like that was when she jumped between Dusklion and a ThunderClan warrior.

Looking over her shoulder to Teardrop, she shrugged, nervously padding to the leader's den.

Birchpaw had passed Duststorm on the way back to her sister, Doedapple.

Noticing her Clanmate´s nervous look, Birchpaw blinked warmly at the warrior and paused to murmur quietly into Duststorm´s ear.

´´It´s best to keep a positive demeanor, or else Birdsnow´ll never forgive you,´´ Birchpaw´s gaze was warm and friendly. ´´Otherwise, you better be cooking up a reason for why you attacked your own Clanmates during the battle. I have a feeling Birdsnow won´t want to discuss whether or not your actions were intentional.´´

Birchpaw flashed Mintslip a sympathetic look, as well, before turning back to Duststorm.

´´I do believe that Birdsnow said to head to her den after the meeting, so if you´d two like, you can come and sit with Doedapple and I for the rest of its duration.´´

Birchpaw gave a warm-hearted purr. ´´Relax and try your best to keep your temper cool with Birdsnow. She isn´t a cat you want to have an attitude with - especially since it is right after a raid. Admit you made a mistake and she may - just may - lighten up.´´

The she-cat slunk back over to Doedapple, looking back to see if Duststorm and Mintslip would follow.

a dark blueish grey bengal-patterned she cat with silver eyes

minkpaw listened silently, she had expected the raid to be one of the first topic birdsnow would address, but the list of clanmates that hadnt survived thunderclans coldblooded attack was still saddening. her head dipped in respect and grief and briefly send starclan a prayer for each of the cats, Moonfoot, Pricklefoot, Troutfall, Duckshade, Creekpelt and Flutterpaw, may their souls rest easy. her head snapped back up at the sound of birdsnows words, thunderclans attack had been cold blooded and punching them down while they were already on the ground, but attacking a clanmate?? she turned her head to eye the cats responsible for causing even more harm for riverclan, duststorm and mintslip. more exiles, more cats dead, she let out a silent sigh, they felt like moons passed since the last meeting and not just a few weeks.
her head turned back to look at birdsnow while she talked momentarily before following her leaders gaze to a kit that had apparently pretended to be apprenticed already. at least this wasnt as saddening as the other news, it was just..weird really. but the thought of a kit being out during a battle made her queasy anyway, hopefully someone had noticed before anything bad happened..still in thought about sunkit her ears pricked at low murmuring a few taillenghts behind her, loud enough to pick up but too quiet for her process before birdsnow addressed it. their leader was right, no matter who stood on the floodstone they had the right to be heard, especially if it was their leader, their only high rank. and even if they personally didnt want to listen they should shut up and just leave, that was not what a proper warrior would do, but a proper warrior wouldnt speak badly of their leader during a meeting. momentarily grateful for the way her mother had raised her to be a proper part of the clan and to never uselessly disrespect her leaders, she almost didnt catch birdsnows displeased connotation when describing her medicine cat candidates had gone against her orders. had cobwebpaw done anything to make birdsnow mad? marigoldleap stepping up to temporarily aid in healing the clan was a huge relief though, the past day had been rough and hopefully marigoldleap could correct any mistakes they made. she turned to marigoldleap, chosing to give her a kind smile and offer her support without outright cheering, this probably wasnt the proper time to cheer anyway. perhaps marigoldleap could teach her a bit more if minkpaw told her about the experimental treatment she had had to resort to..

Warrior - Molly - RiverClan

"Ack, I keep on forgetting about that part," Doedapple sighed, shaking her head, "My memorisation fails me, apologies. We'll go out as soon as the meeting's over."

Freezing, too, when it was mentioned that the fight was in the camp. "Haha," She laughed awkwardly. "Hahaha." It was funny for Doedapple that she could forget this, too. "Why I was coincidently out of camp when it happened, it appears. Such a shame." Why was the warrior thinking she could fake it over? "Sorry again."

As soon as she finished the sentence, the tired and annoyed voice of Birdsnow rang across the clearing. Her attention now fixed on the leader at her name called so suddenly, and her ears flickered slightly. Through her rather dimmed eyes, it seemed like there was a mere change in demeanour, remaining calm. At last on the outside.

"You're oka-" Yet just as Doe was about to reply, Birchpaw suddenly stood up, and surprise flashed through the pair of yellow glinting orbs.'... Being in a bad mood doesn't change the right to yell at every little significant thing.' She thought to herself lightly, biting back the things she wanted to say. However, she's fairly grateful for what Birchpaw did though.

Doedapple stood up next to her sister, and whispered with a hardly audible murmur, "Calm down.." Before turning to the leader with a dip of her head, orbs looking down, emotions unknown. "Yes, my deepest apologies for offending you, Birdsnow. I could not forget of all the hardships we've been going through."

"Also, I don't think she meant 'exile', Birch," She said quietly, a lash of her tail. "I believe it means leaving the meeting, correct?" She asked generously, looking up with an innocent kind of gaze at Birdsnow. Doedapple thought that it looked as if she was challenging the leader, but she was not at all. She rose her head again, though not expecting a reply from the busy, irritated molly much, and stared steadily.

´´Looking like I know what to do with it.´´

____

Birchpaw grumpily flopped back down onto the ground beside her littermate.

´´I know exactly what Birdsnow meant because I heard Larkstar say the exact same words,´´ The she-cat grunted, tail tip flicking to-and-fro.

Doedapple didn´t understand. She didn´t know everything as well as Birchpaw did. (ooc note: considering the fact she was submitted late, imma say she left the clan for a while lol)

However, Birchpaw´s eyes narrowed suspiciously at Doedapple´s awkward tone. Was there something her sister wasn´t telling her? They never hid secrets from each other!

´´You´re kidding me, right?´´ Birchpaw meowed at Doedapple. ´´You were coincidently out of camp whenever the raid happened and you expect me to believe what you are telling me with that tone of yours?´´ The RiverClanner rolled her eyes, emphasizing the word coincidently with a rather harsh amount of sarcasm and sassiness.

Personally, Birchpaw wasn´t just ticked off about her punishment. She was ticked off because she had watched a cat - Frostpetal - die in front of her and she couldn´t do nothing about it.

She then lowered her head. ´´I-I´m sorry, Doedapple. That was rude of me to say. It´s not your fault you were not here during the raid.´´

The she-cat then rounded on Mistypaw. She would have snapped at her, but clearly thought better about it as Birchpaw forced her fur flat and meowed rather calmly through gritted teeth.

´´It may not be my place to decide Doedapple´s fate, but it is my place to defend my sister.´´

At this point, every cat was ticking Birchpaw off. Getting to her paws, she decided she would ignore them and headed towards the opposite side of the clearing, tail tip twitching.

Mistypaw dipped her head a tiny bit as Birdsnow mentioned the losses RiverClan had experienced during the battle. Too many of her clanmates. The warriors and apprentices she'd seen walking around camp happily were now dead, gone, never to be seen again. This time she had not been close to any of them, but she was sure that at some point, all the cats she'd made friends with would die. Like Stormtalon had. Fawnlight. Blizzardwind. Even Kestrelstar. It was never going to end, was it? She let out a little sigh and forced herself to concentrate on Birdsnow's words once again. She shouldn't dwell on the dead, she had done that back then and fallen into a horrible spiral it was hard to get out of. Luckily, cats like Birdy and Fawnlight had been there for her back then to pull her out, but now only Birdsnow was left.

Right, next were the cats who had tried attacking their own damn clanmates. Mistypaw shot them a glare but didn't interact any further. It would do no one good if she began causing trouble; she wanted to be one of those cats Birdsnow could rely on. Apparently, there was also a kit who'd apprenticed themselves.. Young cats could really be creative, she thought with a not too serious shake of her head.

Her attention was drawn towards Doedapple and Birchbranch, who were having a quite disrespectful conversation. Mistypaw quirked her brows and was about to get involved when Birdsnow mentioned it. Why would anyone even call the leader's words "random babbling"?! She had super important stuff to say and there was definitely a reason Birdsnow was on the floodstone hurt trying to make announcements for the clan. Why did cats always have to be so disturbing? Was it so hard to just follow the damn rules and be respectful especially to a cat like Birdsnow who had gone through so much and was still completely loyal to her clan? With Birdsnow as a leader the crimson stained tabby was sure RiverClan would rise to new heights.

Well, now Birchbranch was complaining about Doedapple being "exiled", which Birdsnow had never mentioned as far as Mistypaw knew. "Birchbranch, it would do you good to listen to the leader's words for once and not cause more trouble than you two already have. While I don't believe exile was mentioned, even if it was, just take a step back and let Birdsnow do her job. It's not in your power to decide over Doedapple." The words were simple, direct and would hopefully do their purpose.

"Thank you," she purred. "I just want to get things cleared up soon. I hope Dusklion will vouch for me if Birdsnow needs to hear..."
She trailed off, and followed Birchbranch(paw) quietly. Her paws tingled, itching to fling herself into the den and explain everything in one breath. Sighing, she let her tail drag.

What if she was punished? Or exiled? Her ears shot up, and she looked for her friends and sister. Who would she say goodbye to?

Well, Birchbranch... she's been nice! Bonekit... Blackfeather of course! Pondbreeze, Minnowsplash, Teardrop-

Maybe it could be him one day maybe but he knew that Birdsnow didn't really know him so he knew he didn't have a chance. He looked towards Marigold to see how she would reply and smiled. "You all fought very well and may Starclan light all of our paths but we showed Thunderclan we are strong!" he meowed outloud and raised his head in a silent prayer into the sky how he wished he could of fought harder how he really did he did it his all but maybe it didn't look like it.

The silver cat turned to face Honeybee as they started talking. "Oh I'm doing lovely. The battle was a bit stressful, And I did have to amputate a cat's tail, but I am just very angered that ThunderClan had the audacity to raid our camp." Spottedstream turned to Birdsnow once the leader started to talk. So many deaths, it was disappointing. Then she was announcing two cats who fought against their clan. Then... Sunpaw. Was not an apprentice?? The spotted cat felt hurt and betrayed. They thought that they had just missed the meeting, and then the battle hit so they weren't able to talk to birdsnow. An expression of disappointment flashed across her face as she turned to talk to sunpa- no. Sunkit. "I am very disappointed in you. I thought I was your mentor, but you lied to me. Don't talk to me." the spotted cat got up and walked to the edge of the crowd. She was stupid, why would a so-called apprentice say that she was their mentor? She wanted to become medicine cat, and this might very well screw up her chances. She turned to Marigoldleap, the temporary medicine cat. Prehaps she could talk to her and learn a thing or two from them.

DOEDAPPLE
Warrior - RiverClan - Molly

"It's okay," Doedapple said briefly with another small chuckle. "I was gone for some time anyways..." And she trailed off, thinking of that short period she had by herself. She had thought it clearly and thoroughly. It was hard to leave RiverClan, and she knew she would never do that ever again. (ooc note: not having a set backstory yet, perhaps her personality had a not-so-drastic but still large change during the time she was gone.)

"I'm sure you must've fought bravely though, no matter what," Meowing in encouragement, she hoped to raise Birchpaw's spirit. "Despite punishments, RiverClan's still lucky to have you." It's not a personal opinion, RiverClan is fortunate to have everyone here, good or bad. Birchpaw makes a strong opponent during battles, too. She's strong.

Her attention was much concentrated soon on the mutters of disagreement and scolding words coming from across the camp. Cat's said much as soon as Birdsnow directed a few words at her and her sister, and despite being the most problematic with disrespectful statements here, Birchpaw was the one being targeted. Doedapple's eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze turning sharper as she gazed at opposing clanmates defiantly, daring to challenge despite being wrong at hand. She may be wrong, but it's not her sister's fault, and it's not their place to add to what Birdsnow said. Birdsnow's the leader of RiverClan; they're just clanmates, in Doedapple's perspective.

"Enough is enough," She said in a lower tone, one with much warning put inside as she looked around at the clanmates, her tail wrapping around Birchpaw protectively. "I'm the one at fault here, and it's not yours to talk about it." Of course, not pointing at Birdsnow. She had all the right in the whole world to say what wrongdoings and issues they caused. Her whiskers twitched in annoyance especially after she heard Mistypaw said. Doedapple let out a brief snort as she glanced over in contempt.

"My sister over here just got her first ever punishment. Is that many? I believe not." She started straightforwardly. "If you could, Mistypaw, it's also not your place to decide if Birchpaw is causing problems or not." If it was Doedapple in the past, she may have winced, but she's here to defend her sister, who she believes was innocent in this situation.

After the sharp sentences, her muzzle suddenly blossomed a light beam, one that was sarcastically, rather pleasant and cheerful. "Now, please, excuse us. Sorry for all that ruckus." She watched as her sister, who was angered at all sorts of comments targeting her. Doedapple watched in sorrow as she paused, then followed, and settled down beside her.

"You okay?" She asked in a casual tone, her flank touching Birchpaw's. "Do you still wanna go hunting?" Doedapple understood why Birchpaw wanted to leave this place now.

"You okay?" She asked in a casual tone, her flank touching Birchpaw's. "Do you still wanna go hunting?" Doedapple understood why Birchpaw wanted to leave this place now.

Birchpaw turned to her sister as she felt Doedapple´s soft pelt press against her own, and she gave a nod.

´´That would be great. Anything to get away from the tension in the clearing.´´

Birchpaw glanced apologetically towards Birdsnow before bounding away towards the camp entrance. Perhaps hunting with her littermate alone would take her mind off of things.

´´I´m sorry I dragged you into the situation,´´ The RiverClanner murmured as she padded alongside Doedapple out in the territory.

Fluffing her chest up a bit as Cobs mentioned her name and 'deputy' in the same sentence. "Of course I would. I'd help whip this Clan back into the shape it was in when Lions lead." It was clear from the hope glittering in her eyes that being named the Clan's deputy was her goal, her desire for this meeting. "Thanks, Cobs," she beamed at the younger she-cat, lifting a paw to ruffle the fur between her ears if allowed. Next to her, subconsciously almost, the warrior also let her plume of a tail fan out to fall behind Eaglekit's back as a show of comfort before turning her attention back to Birds.

Good. Finally, a leader that was putting her paw down As Dusklion sat beside Cobs and Eaglekit, she kept her maw turned up and eyes focused on Birds. There was a mixture of emotions that passed through her - grief at the announcement that six RiverClanners had lost their life, then amusement as cats started to get exactly what they deserved; reminded of their place in the Clan. There had been so much insubordination lately that she was glad Birds was doing something about the cats like Doedapple and Sunpaw.

But of course the peace couldn't stay for long. Birchpaw and Doedapple had to start up again, getting Mists involved. From where she sat the dark tabby twisted and shot a glare at both of them as they retreated from the meeting. "Oh, shut it about the damn punishment already, will you?" Her voice rose to a sharp retort as she shook her head. "You're actin' like you've been renamed Birchkit 'n your temper tantrums make you look like one too. Birds said punishments would be harsher from here on out, so stop mopin' around about it." Oh, but it seemed neither kit wanted to stay, as they both headed out of camp.

"Good riddance," she muttered under her breath, glad the kit-warriors were leaving. "I hope Birds does something about that insufferable Birchpaw," she added with a glance towards Eagles and Cobs, "she attacked ThunderClan's medicine cat in the middle of the battle." While Dusklion was all for hitting hard, going after the cat who was just trying to heal was a low blow - definitely not a trait she wanted among her Clanmates.

Another voice was picked up in her good ear and Dusklion turned her head around to see - ah. Duststorm. "Vouch for you?" she snapped, unable to hide the laughter in her tone. "You attacked me in the middle of battle - you're lucky I don't come pluck the very whiskers from your face one by one. No, if I had anythin' to say about it, you'd be renamed into a 'paw and forced to re-do your trainin' since you obviously seem to have forgot it." What was with her Clanmates today??

With a huff the tabby turned her head back up to Birds, refusing to cause a disturbance this meeting by getting involved in petty arguments. If those cats didn't know their mistakes by now, her shouting it to them would do nothing but derail the meeting.

Stagheart dipped his head in solemnity as Birdsnow listed off the cats who were lost during the raid; he'd attend the vigil and send prayers StarClan, thanking for their lives and service, however flawed. His wounds still stung from deep punctures, burning reminders of the travesty the Thunderrats committed. He was determined to help his Clan get back to full strength by whatever means he could so that if ThunderClan — or any threat, for that matter — had the nerve to try them again, they'd be ready next time. A force to be reckoned with, clever and strong, as they had always been.

He listened intently to the leader's words, briefly angered by the disloyalty and disrespect shown in his Clan. How these warriors could cause so much disarray and sleep well at night baffled him. His whiskers twitched in amusement as Dusklion told off the chattering cats just a few feet away from him, glad at least somebody was saying the words he wouldn't even bother with at the moment. The last thing RiverClan needed after all this torment was more bickering warriors — and apprentices, apparently.

Stagheart gave Marigoldleap an approving nod for accepting the temporary role. It was a large paw to fill, and any help would be appreciated. He was just grateful she was up for the job.

The large warrior then settled his tail on Berrykit's back, a quiet and minute gesture in hopes of settling the kit's anxieties. Surely she was nervous for what else this meeting held, especially with all of the internal fighting and disorganization their Clan was enduring. He hoped that someday — especially for Berrykit's sake — they'd be restored to their former glory.

He/They - 13 Moons

The small tabby purred as his mentor stroked him before starting the meeting. Being around Birdsnow made Rainpaw feel okay [mind you she was the only one to stick around in his life]. His one blue eye gazed at the clan from the floodstone. How did furbs even do this, talking in front of what seemed to be thousands of cats. Rainpaw pinned their ear down as arguments erupted. Were they mad at Misty and furbs? Why was there so much arguing? The tiny apprentice cowered backwards, attempting to press himself against his mentor's pelt for comfort. "You're a great fweader," he whispered to the older cat. Rainpaw almost tumbled backwards as his hind paws lost grip. He let out a startled yowl as he clambered back up to his previous position. Pelt hot with embarrassment, He attempted to hide himself from view of the clan. "S-S-sorry furbs," he whispered, stiffiling a sob.

The disrespect in Doedapple's words made Mistypaw let out a snort. Sure she was an apprentice but she'd done more for this clan than most warriors, and as far as she knew her warrior ceremony was being done this meeting. She'd killed two cats in the battle, worked her ass off to help with healing, and where had Doedapple been? Outside of camp. She quirked a brow and let out a small hiss. "Not my place, you say, yet I've done more for RiverClan than most warriors and have worked until my paws were sore since my return. And don't put so much emphasis on the 'paw' part, I bet I could beat you in a spar any day. When you were outside of camp during the battle I fought three ThunderClanners, killed two of the Thunderrats cats, and healed so many of my clanmates. The disrespect you show is a disgrace, and I'm sure Birdsnow will see that the same way."

She lashed her tail and turned to Cobwebpaw, dipping her head in gratitude. It seemed Doedapple and Birchpaw were leaving camp, did them well, the kits both of them were. Why whine about a punishment that was literally well deserved for slacking and then treat RiverClan's youth like dirt? "Yeah, let's go do that after the meeting," she mewed with a soft smile. She still needed to get the stub that once had been an ear checked up, but she'd visit Marigoldleap in the medicine cat's den later when all of this drama was over.

Seabreeze huffed at the apprentice, then stuck his tongue out at her playfully, "I take it back, no Adder deputy-" Then anxiety snuck in and he quickly stapled onto the joke, "I was kidding by the way, sorry, I- you probably knew I was joking but, umm, still. Sorry." It was a shame, he almost forgot about his thoughts for a bit and was able to be normal for a few minutes but alas Seabreeze wasn't normal and will never be normal again. The tom turned his attention to the next thing,

"An herb patrol would be good, it's likely that they would need cobwebs, marigold for sure but we could check in with Marigoldleap about what is running low. After the den of course, I hope to get the roof done and get herbs before tomorrow but...we'll see if time allows that." Thyme likely as well but that'll be after they check and know for sure. Should they try and invite others as well? He looked around the warriors, apprentices, and other members of the clan that surrounded him, perhaps.

"Should we invite some other cats as well? It may be quicker and easier if it were just us to worry about though." Seabreeze has heard of many a patrol disbanding or members getting lost or some patrols not returning at all. It was sometimes sad, what Riverclan turned into, or has been ever since stability was lost in the higher ranks. Birdsnow was different though, she would fix everything on pawstep at a time and he and Adderpaw and everyone else would be there to help her. Speaking of, "I know it's a bit hypocritical for me to say but things will get better, we just have to help fix things one thing at a time. First the warriors den and then next thing we know we have a striving and thriving clan, strongest of them all!" The sandy grey-blue tom exaggerated slightly.

Before Adderpaw could really say yes or no the other cat went off to talk to others. Oh well. Perhaps they would come back when it was time to help build the den but given they wondered off right away Adderpaw assumed they would forget about the den. Though she was open to being surprise. Perhaps she just wasn't giving anyone who got demoted to paw any leeway.

"Inviting other cats wouldn't be a bad idea.. I'll leave that up for you to decide." Adderpaw said having no idea whether or not she wanted more people to come with the herbs. She trusted that she could gather them quickly enough but thought other. She then glanced over to where the other apprentice had gone off to and wrinkled her face. She didn't really want them to come along. What if they did something foolish and got them in trouble as well.. Oh if she got in trouble for someone else's actions she would not let that cat sleep peacefully.

Purrks; Just a scratch| Beefed up tier 2|
He-Him { River Clan } Warrior

Garlic listened with intense focus, the brief little snippet of news on the ThunderClan raid prompting no reaction but a flick of the ear, he’d only fought one cat. Which was a shame because garlic had been itching to tear some fur and draw some blood from those mangy thunder rats, the sheer audacity they had thinking they’ve the right to rampage in and snag a quick victory. When riverclan was lacking in high ranks nonetheless, it made his nose wrinkle a the thought, but anyhow, there was plenty of things he could focus on instead. The list of the deceased caused him to visibly flinch, Flutter paw.. he still felt wracked with grief and it didn’t help that he’d just stood idle and watched for the part where she got killed, stars he could have at least done more then a nick on the ear and a telling off of anything that cat had only wounds to remember him by. He’d rather they’d have had their life sliced as cruelly as flutter paws was as a return for their act of disgusting selfishness. Trying to snag a few quick kills in order to flaunt their abilities, it made him shudder how vivid the whole thing was in his mind, but the event was still rather fresh. He’d have to ensure that he would definitely attend the vigil that’s for sure. Garlic Feather blinked and lifted his head slightly taken aback by the news that some cats thought it would be smart to make themselves look mouse-brained and even more worsen river clans chances of winning that by scrambling around batting their paws at their own clan mates. On a side note Garlic did feel a rush of eagerness to hear who the new lionhearts were, judging by the leadership Bird Snow has shown so far he wouldn’t be surprised if they were the finest warriors this clan has to offer. He’d no opinion on the rest, of course, medicine cat stuff. Furballs getting scolded. The usual stuff.

Before Seabreeze could even really start to think on his response to Birchpaw the other was already padding off to stir up more trouble with her sister in the meeting. Well....not that Seabreeze was really leaning towards accepting anyways, when he said that he may want others to join the patrol he meant those that were more on the responsible side not cats that have are currently demoted for missing an herb patrol and starting fights in a clan meeting. Perhaps in the far future if she cleaned up her act, but even Seabreeze had enough reason to decline without his anxiety going haywire.

If the...apprentice... came back trying to join them hopefully Adderpaw would speak up for him because Seabreeze wasn't sure he would be able to decline someone even if it made sense. Whatever, the tom shook out his pelt lightly, the demoted warrior already toddled off which isn't saying anything good about how she would do on a patrol. Though for other cats joining....His blue eyes moved across the camp and its members. Most of the cats that Seabreeze would personally ask would likely be busy helping out already. Eventually, the tom hummed and turned his attention back to Adderpaw,
"For now, I think its best if it were just us, it'd be quicker that way."

The bickering that started to spread through the cats around him suddenly caught Seabreeze's attention and with a glance around him he found the most noticable members that were starting issues. Doedapple, that dared to question Mistypaw's abilities when the she-cat was an absolute shining star of what all cats in Riverclan should be aspiring to be, trying to defend her sister when Birchbranch- sorry, Birchpaw had been making things into a bigger deal than they were. The sisters' better watch themselves or else they would get into hot water and Seabreeze wouldn't disagree about them deserving it.

Oh, Cloverpaw, what has happened to our clan? Seabreeze turned to Adderpaw again, his ears pinned and he spoke, keeping his voice low as to not disturb the meeting but his thoughts were starting to get bad and he wanted a distraction,
"Anyways, after the herb patrol and fixing the roof, what're your next plans? I may request to maybe do more border patrols...though I am curious about your plans?"

That Birch-? Bird-? B-something cat seemed like the type. Noisy. Doedapple for the same reason, plus the crime of being far more annoying. He ran his tongue over his jaws as the two apparently left, and glanced up at Birdsnow. "If anyone would like me to get rid of them, I'd be more than happy to," he called to no one in particular.

Birchpaw had passed Duststorm on the way back to her sister, Doedapple.

Noticing her Clanmate´s nervous look, Birchpaw blinked warmly at the warrior and paused to murmur quietly into Duststorm´s ear.

´´It´s best to keep a positive demeanor, or else Birdsnow´ll never forgive you,´´ Birchpaw´s gaze was warm and friendly. ´´Otherwise, you better be cooking up a reason for why you attacked your own Clanmates during the battle. I have a feeling Birdsnow won´t want to discuss whether or not your actions were intentional.´´

Birchpaw flashed Mintslip a sympathetic look, as well, before turning back to Duststorm.

´´I do believe that Birdsnow said to head to her den after the meeting, so if you´d two like, you can come and sit with Doedapple and I for the rest of its duration.´´

Birchpaw gave a warm-hearted purr. ´´Relax and try your best to keep your temper cool with Birdsnow. She isn´t a cat you want to have an attitude with - especially since it is right after a raid. Admit you made a mistake and she may - just may - lighten up.´´

The she-cat slunk back over to Doedapple, looking back to see if Duststorm and Mintslip would follow.

Mintslip frowned as her name carried across camp and Birdsnow accused her of attacking a clanmate. Well, I did attack a clanmate, but it was an accident, she thought. As Birchpaw- Birchbranch?- gave her a sympathetic smile, her lips curled up into a returning one. With a small sigh, the light grey she-cat settled down to dread her upcoming talk with Birdsnow. At least I'm not the only one, she thought with a glance at Duststorm.

Of course, it wouldn't be a RiverClan meeting without some sort of commotion. Fadingsun only rolled his eyes as the source of this meeting's issues came to his notice: Birchpaw, the irksome cat who he'd demoted, and Doedapple. Fortunately, he didn't need to get involved; others stepped up quickly to take care of the issue, and soon the pair were leaving camp.

He snorted quietly to himself, thinking briefly that perhaps it would be best if they didn't return- at least until they both learned how to act. Birchpaw, especially. She'd been quite helpful around camp up until the whole patrol debacle; ever since she'd been moping around like he'd told her she was never going to be a warrior again. Hopefully she'd grow up and get over it.

Turning his attention back to the Floodstone, he listened quietly as Birdsnow began the announcements. Six dead, hm? Well, he supposed it could certainly be worse considering that their camp had been invaded. Still, it caused anger against ThunderClan to flare inside of him once more. He certainly had an idea or two about how they could retaliate, but he'd save them for a private conversation with the leader later.

Part of him understood the desire ThunderClan had for retaliation; after all, RiverClan's warriors hadn't exactly been shining beacons of respect as of recent. Nonetheless, invading their camp and potentially endangering their kits and elders was taking things way too far. Not to mention destroying one of their dens in the midst of leaf-bare.

His ears perked as Marigoldleap was announced as temporary medicine cat. Fadingsun whole-heartedly agreed with that decision; Margioldleap was composed, experienced, and capable of holding her own. He had every bit of trust in her to handle the Clan's healing duties until a permanent medicine cat was found.

Oh boy, it seemed one thing for certain hadn't changed during his absence. Slatestripe cast an amber gaze towards Birchpaw and Doedapple as they started some sort of commotion, which was quickly responded to by others- one of them being his former apprentice. Pride flashed in his eyes; one of the things he'd always wanted for his apprentices was for them to be able to handle their own, no matter what.

Not too long after, Birchpaw and Doedapple left the camp seemingly out of choice, and things quieted down once more. Shifting his attention back to Birdsnow, Slatestripe listened quietly as announcements continued on. There was the whole issue with ThunderClan- the gray warrior wasn't the least bit surprised that the ratty squirrel-eaters were up to no good again. He hoped Birdsnow would make good on her promise for retaliation.

It still felt strange to him to see the cat who had spent so long as an apprentice leading RiverClan. He had his doubts over whether she was the right choice; ever since Skystar, RiverClan had been plagued by bad leader after bad leader. He wanted Birdsnow to be the one to break the pattern, but only time would tell. Slatestripe liked her on a personal level, but on a professional one he was uncertain.

Awkwardness flared in his pelt as Marigoldleap was mentioned. Memories of their long-ago fling, combined with the guilt he felt over leaving his kits, swarmed him. It was almost choking, so much so that he had to sink down into a loaf position to contain himself. Stars, would these feelings ever go away? If he could go back in time and smack himself for leaving RiverClan, he would. Never again.

Stars, over six deaths, it sounded like. Snakechill's ears twitched. One bloody fight, and he was more than happy he'd missed it now. He drew his tongue over one of his forepaws, eyeing his Clanmates, looking for injuries or distasteful cats to avoid.

That Birch-? Bird-? B-something cat seemed like the type. Noisy. Doedapple for the same reason, plus the crime of being far more annoying. He ran his tongue over his jaws as the two apparently left, and glanced up at Birdsnow. "If anyone would like me to get rid of them, I'd be more than happy to," he called to no one in particular.

“One day I’ll be the greatest warrior of all the clans!”

Adderpaw was asked what she wanted to do? What her next plans were? She was so taken aback with the novelty of this situation that the shock was clearly worn on her face. Once she realized the face she was baring she shook her head like an etch-a-sketch to reset her expression. "My plans? Well I suppose I never get time to think of my own plans. Unless my plans are just helping out the clan wherever I can. Whenever." Adderpaw mused on her own day to day actions. Maybe she should spend some time figuring out who exactly was Adderpaw. Ah this was all getting confusing and a lot of thinking, spare me.

“I…have no idea my long term plans. To be honest, I didn’t think I’d be around this long.” His plans were to be a warrior and to serve his clan with Cloverpaw. Currently, only half of that is obtainable now. When he was a young kit, it was make his parents love him but that’s fallen apart too. Seabreeze tended to over thinking the present rather than the future. Maybe try his paw at healing more? But now that Marigoldleap was here that would be less necessary.

Stagheart dipped his head in solemnity as Birdsnow listed off the cats who were lost during the raid; he'd attend the vigil and send prayers StarClan, thanking for their lives and service, however flawed. His wounds still stung from deep punctures, burning reminders of the travesty the Thunderrats committed. He was determined to help his Clan get back to full strength by whatever means he could so that if ThunderClan — or any threat, for that matter — had the nerve to try them again, they'd be ready next time. A force to be reckoned with, clever and strong, as they had always been.

He listened intently to the leader's words, briefly angered by the disloyalty and disrespect shown in his Clan. How these warriors could cause so much disarray and sleep well at night baffled him. His whiskers twitched in amusement as Dusklion told off the chattering cats just a few feet away from him, glad at least somebody was saying the words he wouldn't even bother with at the moment. The last thing RiverClan needed after all this torment was more bickering warriors — and apprentices, apparently.

Stagheart gave Marigoldleap an approving nod for accepting the temporary role. It was a large paw to fill, and any help would be appreciated. He was just grateful she was up for the job.

The large warrior then settled his tail on Berrykit's back, a quiet and minute gesture in hopes of settling the kit's anxieties. Surely she was nervous for what else this meeting held, especially with all of the internal fighting and disorganization their Clan was enduring. He hoped that someday — especially for Berrykit's sake — they'd be restored to their former glory.

"Oh!" Adderoaw murred in embarrassment and quickly cleaned her ear to distract herself from it. It seemed that Seabreeze was opened to moving the conversation so that would save her from most of it. "Yes in the short term I would like to just help with catching us all up on herbs and other important things. I hope that the warriors den doesn't take too long to finish. One day soon I'm going to be in that den!" She let out a little chuckle.

"As for long term plans?" Adderpaw began to ponder on such things. What was there for them to plan long terms on. Clan life didn't seem to make way for long term plans, just focus on feeding everyone. There was no sin in such a thing. Then again Adderpaw did want to become the deputy and somehow she was going to have to make herself seem like the shinning example. "I suppose all I could do is when I become a mentor is to be strict as possible." She mused as she looked over to all the trouble makers in her clan.

"I hope that if I am that there will be less cats that try to act out or lose their warrior names. If that is even possible." Adderpaw wasn't sure you could throw a rock hard enough at some of these cats to knock some sense into them. With it being this bad, Adderpaw wondered if even teaching someone young and strict would do anything. "I suppose I'm just going to have to try as hard as possible."

"And.." Adderpaw turned to face Seabreeze and put both of her paws on his paws and stared deeply into his eyes. "Look deep into my eyes Seabreeze." She demanded the older warrior. "You never wince at fate nor wonder how you are here now. You take fate with your claws and throw it around. You will stay here as long as your body will let you hold up. Fight against everything you can, the fight is never over but you are stronger than you know."

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

The warrior was left speechless and for a second it didn't even feel like he was there at the gathering, looking and speaking with Adderpaw, for a second he was looking back at Cloverpaw. Then with the next blink of his eyes, the trick of his mind flickered away and Adderpaw was back. Though it was Seabreeze that left for a second to be fair. The tom took a few moments and then took his paws from under the molly's and looked away with a shaky whisper,
"Right, yes. Fate is such a fickle thing."

Get yourself together, Seabreeze! You are supposed to be put together! You are a warrior, you shouldn't be acting like this. The tom shook out his pelt a bit more aggressively, straightening his posture, normally his tail would lay over his paws but...the pain of his injuries stung and for a second he felt like he may cry but he didn't. You are okay. Everything is fine. Change your focus,"Hopefully, as things get more stable, so do the apprentices being raised into warriors. I am sure you'll raise some fine warriors when you start mentoring."

Long term plans...Well, he was interested in learning herbs. Though he wouldn't trust himself to treat anyone else. Other than that though, more border patrols, more hunting patrols. Maybe one day soon, Seabreeze will also take on an apprentice but he wasn't very pleased with his performance during the raid and didn't want to pass on that lack of skill. So maybe he could find someone that could help his battling abilities. Honestly, how did his mentor let him pass the assessment?

Fix up the warriors den, if only some of these other cats would help out, but anyways. Fix up the warriors den, check in with Marigoldleap, herb patrol with Adderpaw, then let Birdsnow know that he wanted to be on more patrols, start going on more solo patrols, practice herbs...busy, busy, busy. Though, that was okay because it was for Riverclan, Seabreeze would give up a lot for Riverclan. In some ways he already has.

"My long term plans are basic, more patrols, checking in with Marigoldleap, checking the other dens for damage just in case, helping out anywhere I can."

Stagheart had given her a sharp flick of his tail, making her conscious that her voice had raised. She lowered it into a whisper again, flushing with embarrassment. "Ooh... aren't you an apprentice already? What happened to your mentor?" She asked innocently.

The molly was noticeably grown, nearing warrior's age by Berrykit's best guess. Berrykit was confused on how they could've gotten this far without a mentor...?

Staring down at Sweetsong as the warrior crumpled down, teary eyed and crestfallen. Not an ounce of empathy was spared for the she-cat. If an adult couldn’t accept the consequences of her actions then maybe the warrior should go back to apprenticeship. Birdsnow didn’t think she was an unreasonable cat. She had ordered for her territory to be defended, whether with claws or words- peacefully or violently, she didn’t care. She felt like she was being a good cat, letting her warriors pick how they reacted to trespassers, but she wouldn’t tolerate the kind of disrespect and blatant disobedience that some of these cats exhibited.

”I’d like to make a few things clear regarding outsiders. I don’t care if you kill trespassing outsiders or attack them or lead them out peacefully, but you are to remove them immediately from the territory. If you want to talk to them or anything, I don’t care, but do it in the outskirts and make it clear that they’re not allowed in our territory.” Just so there wouldn’t be any more cats pissing her off. Or accusing her of demanding that outsider “kits” be murdered. She just wanted things to be less problematic. Thats all.

Blatantly ignoring Birchpaw because she was begging Bird to not exile her sister for… some reason, she fixed an icy glare on Doedapple as she apologized for causing problems and then proceeded to cause more problems. Ooookay. ”Doedapple unless you want to join Birchpaw in the apprentices den I suggest you stop picking fights.” She snapped out, broken tail lashing.

Placing a snug paw around Rainpaw as he almost fell, she lowered her head to check on him before continuing. Offering a small, amused grin, that didn’t reach her exhaustion bruised eyes, she searched out a specific small group of cats. Usually kit ceremonies were first, but some of these apprentices had fought hard at the battle and deserved to be warriors. Deserved to be celebrated.

”On to some ceremonies- and I don’t feel like I should have to say this but if anyone negatively disrupts these ceremonies in any way, they’ll be demoted to kit and will have to restart the whole training process. If you have 14 moons of your life to spare retraining, then go ahead and try me but if not, keep your mouth shut unless it’s to support these cats. “

“Now. There are some apprentices that have trained and served their Clan well, and embodied exactly what a RiverClan warrior should be. Before I call those up here, I wanted to take a moment to honor and thank the other apprentices who fought well, and although they’re too young or not trained enough to be a warrior yet, they’re still appreciated.”

“Mistypaw, Springpaw, Treepaw, please step forward.” Her eyes surfed the crowd of cats to locate the three. Mistypaw. The cat she had grown up with, her best friend- her sister, one of the only cats she trusted fully. She felt her face grow to a warm, proud smile, extending to Springpaw, a valuable Lionheart and cat who had never failed to be a flame in the fire that was the true spirit of RiverClan and Treepaw, who Bird didn’t know as well but was still equally proud of. Her first three warrior ceremonies. The first three warriors of the new RiverClan.

Dusklion - RiverClan Warrior

At the question of Sunkit, Dusklion gave a blink of surprise. "They attacked you??" she spat, then whirled around to look for this supposed kit-apprentice. She couldn't spot them among the crowd but that didn't stop a low growl from rumbling in her chest. "Well, make sure Birds knows about it. There was a lot goin' on in the battle, she might've missed it. Or I can let her know, too." Either way this Sunkit would need to be taught a lesson to not draw their claws out towards others. Muzzle twisted into a frown she shook her head and glanced back up at Birds.

A flare of pride unfolded within her chest as she watched Birds take control, putting her paw down on several issues. Her fluffy tail smacked against the ground in excitement, though she managed to bite back another supportive yowl. Blue eyes flickered to the three apprentices that were being made into warriors at this meeting, however, and she couldn't help it - a sharp congratulatory yowl left her paw as a grin spread across her face.

Specifically for Mistypaw - that cat had fought and trained well, and in her eyes pride shone clearly. She had far passed her assessment and displayed natural skills that would make her a great addition to the warrior's den. Dusk was happy that her efforts would be celebrated today.

It was a great day, despite the battle that had ravaged their Clan no less than a single day ago. Dusklion's blue eyes glowed with - oh. She'd heard rumors of Slatestripe returning to camp, but seeing him now seated in front of her. The fur along the back of her neck rose and she sent glaring daggers into the back of his head, which she hoped the tom could feel. It took everything in her to not unsheathe her claws - she would not ruin this moment for these soon to be warriors over one cat - but if he happened to turn around he'd see the blazing blue flames of hell staring right back at him.

Despite being a former outsider, Firetail could understand why the leaders gets pissed off, other cats care less of their status and focus more on arguing against the leader. He got lucky to join RiverClan, Larkstar was gracious to give him shelter to call home and a clan he can can help with in the responsibilities, with no words he watched from afar, but he still stayed near the med den as he already knew that he disobeyed a order of staying in the den to heal. Still he was disobeying the order by sitting outside near the den, he knew he couldn’t miss a single meeting, even if it was boring and nothing else, but still he had to show up at every single meeting.

The icy eyed tom tapped the tip of his forked tail to Beanfloat's back, a welcoming smile creasing his warm features.

"Excited?" He leaned over and whispered to the tom, careful to not interrupt the ceremony in any way. Hopefully these newly found warriors would find their place soon. Sharpfin was still figuring out the whole warrior thing, still grabbing and reaching for any pointers or advice. He hadn't gotten any so far, but he was far too bright to let any doubt enter his mind.

He had asked Starclan for good news, and he got it. Seeing the optimistic apprentice Treepaw finally get his ceremony was truly heartwarming. It was clear his clanmate felt the same.

"I bet he'll be wonderful." He sighed softly, looking up at the Floodstone with curious blue eyes. "I wonder what his name will be."

Treeheart, he remembered Treepaw telling him that once. How he wanted to be named that. Hopefully he'd get his wish, Sharpfin had certainly gotten his.

Well... At least part of it.

The silver warrior had found it better away from the crowd now, so much arguing was erupting. She thought it was good Birdsnow was enforcing rules regarding outsiders. After the raid, Spottedstream was wary of cats who were non-RiverClan. She hoped she wouldn't have to use her claws, but she must defend her clan. So many cats have died recently and she wasn't going to become one of them. She wanted to be helpful to her clan, and hoped to live for many moons to come. Sadly she couldn't say the same for her past, but now was not the time to think about it, Birdsnow was now moving on to ceremonies.

Surprisingly, she couldn't remember the last time she saw an apprentice made a warrior, aside from Birdsnow's own. She listened as the leader called their names - Mistypaw, Springpaw, and Treepaw. Spottedstream looked fondly at the three apprentices. The bengal warrior didn't know them personally, but she was proud to see RiverClan's newest warriors earn their name. She remembered the excitement when she got her own, but back then she still had grief over Adderpaw. She had let that go now. She focused her blue eyes on the three, curious to see what their names will be.

What... her name? She was becoming a warrior? Pride shimmered in Mistypaw's one amber eye as the late apprentice stepped forward alongside Springpaw and Treepaw. She noticed Minkpaw's look to her and offered the molly a small smile, then let her gaze settle on Dusklion for a few moments. Instead of saying it out loud she simply nodded in thanks for now. After the ceremony she'd certainly give Dusk some more appreciation. Once that was done she turned to Birdsnow and awaited to be given her name. Finally, after so many moons of fighting and proving herself to RiverClan, her efforts were being recognized. She was becoming a warrior, a warrior of her clan! Her deep amber orbs lightened up and she almost couldn't wait any longer for her name. This was almost as exciting as her apprentice ceremony, if not more.

Yeah... if I don't screw it all up. Birdsnow was just talking about outsiders, and I was one when Stagheart found me... should I even be here?

She glanced at the large warrior beside her, who offered a gentle and comforting smile.

Stagheart says I belong here. So the answer's yes. When's he ever wrong?

She turned back to Treepaw, Springpaw, and Mistypaw, watching in anticipation as the apprentices prepared to take on their warrior names.

The bright ginger molly was waaay too late to the meeting. She grinned and rushed out of the apprentices den, looking for someone to sit next to. Ooh, was Spottedstream alone? The apprentice padded over and smiled at the warrior. "Hi! I'm Sunnypaw. Meetings are exciting, aren't they?" She turned her attention towards Birdsnow and noticed the leader was calling a few apprentice's names. Since they stepped forward, Sunnypaw supposed these were warrior ceremonies. How cool! She wanted hers to be done soon, but she was too young, wasn't she? And she barely had any training. Oh well, with Applebees as her mentor, she would surely learn well!

"Spotted, my mentor is Applebees. I don't know much about her but she seems really cool. Do you have an apprentice?" she inquired with a tip of her head.

The warrior sat down near the warrior's then. She was...a bit late, and there was already a lot of cats gathered up. She was out of camp when the meeting was called, the stuff about the battle was probably already announced so it was off to the more usual stuff now. Mistypaw, Springpaw, Treepaw. She really only knew about Springpaw, but guess that doesn't really matter much. The three were still ones to be proud of. It felt like it's been some time since one of these ceremonies happened.

Spottedstream soon found herself sitting alongside an apprentice. Her bengal head turned to the ginger molly as they introduced themselves as Sunnypaw. "Well well well, It is a pleasure to meet you," she chuckled kindly, turning her full attention to her clanmate. "I met your mentor in the battle, Applebees seems like a really nice cat. Oh me? I do not have an apprentice just yet. Who knows, maybe I'll become a medicine cat with an apprentice, as that is my dream. But alas, for now I do not, and I am one of many RiverClan warriors," she purred softly, blue hues fixing steady on Birdsnow. "So, how is your training going along?" she asked, wanting to fixtate the subject away from her.

Cormorantpaw
long-furred, smoky-black mackerel tabby with bits of white; yellow eyes
purrks: prison break - tier 1

A breathless wheeze escaped past her lungs from the sudden barreling of the tortoiseshell feline, her paws scrambling to get ahold of herself as she allowed herself to accept the embrace. Loud, rhythmic purrs began to expel from her chest, the tabby gingerly using her front paws to wrap the other molly into a hug, practically shoving her muzzle into her shoulders. Springpaw reeked of blood and herbal remedies at the moment, but Cormorantpaw didn’t beg to differ about it. She was finally reunited with one of her best friends, and she didn’t want this moment to end whatsoever. At least one of the cats that she knew had managed to pull themselves together to make themselves notable. All the other cats that she had known and loved had seemingly felt like they had… honestly disappeared, to be fairly honest. Lilycreek didn’t appear anywhere in the crowd when she had first entered RiverClan’s camp, and her siblings weren’t anywhere in sight as well. Of course, the most blatant fact was that Goosecurl was nowhere to be found as well, much to her surprise. To be honest, she had been expecting the molly to give no physical appearance whatsoever since she left RiverClan. It wasn’t like Cormorantpaw cared, Goosecurl left her while she was still a kit and didn’t give a single reason for why she left. It was infuriating, to say the least. A tight sigh expelled past her lips as she focused her attention on Springpaw once more, noting the single eye that she now had.

“Great stars above, Springpaw! What happened to your eye?” Cormorantpaw asked, locking her yellow hues on the empty socket that was apparent along her best friend’s face. The tabby almost felt the urge to describe her wounds to the other molly, but she held herself back. Springpaw went through enough already, given her physical state at the moment. When Birdsnow had begun the meeting, there wasn’t a whole lot that Cormorantpaw found her interest lingering in. Some clan-mates seemingly died to ThunderClan’s wrath and that sounded interiorly irritating to her. Why did ThunderClan think that it was right to start waltzing into her camp and cause a horrid mess? Was all of ThunderClan just filled with fumbling fools who thought it was nice to just make RiverClan’s lives all the worse? The thought alone made the smoky-black molly more infuriated, her tail lashing as she ignored the boiling ire forming deep within her stomach. The attack itself practically explained why most of her clan-mates looked in rough shape, but as long as they tried to fight against ThunderClan, it wasn’t much for her to dive her thoughts into. The rest of what Birdsnow needed to say wasn’t much thought for the tabby, just being some regular news and scolding for a few cats that she had no idea who they were… but something did catch her mind.

Springpaw was becoming a warrior. A warrior. Cormorantpaw slowly craned her head to face the tortoiseshell whom she still had herself embraced with. The cat right before her, and her own best friend, was becoming a literal warrior. As much as Cormorantpaw wanted to be pleased with her friend for becoming a warrior, she couldn’t help but feel guilty for it. She hadn’t been in RiverClan for… stars knows what, and now she was just coming back to her best friend becoming a warrior. It was a pleasant experience, to say the least, but she felt jealous of such a feat as well. With a smile worming its way onto her lips, the tabby brushed herself against the tortoiseshell as she gave her a cheeky grin. “Well, congrats, Springpaw! Didn’t realize that I was coming back to your naming ceremony.” She allowed the bit of humor to slip past her lips, in all honesty, chuckling at her attempt at trying to bring out some amusement into the light.

"Your name is cool too sounds fierce!" he let out a chuckle as he gave a welcoming smile towards the other warrior.

‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿‿

Springpaw may be filled with mixed emotions right this moment, but she knew she was ecstatic right now. She tightened the hug they were in right now, face pressed against the other's shoulder. A part of her didn't want to let the other go, especially after seeing them again. Who's to say that she wouldn't leave the clan again, who she wouldn't get taken away like those she was close with before? Sadly, she let the other go to look the other in the face, her lone eye looking a bit surprised when she heard Cormorantpaw's question. She brought a paw up to touch the still-wrapped wound like she had forgotten it was there. "Tried to fight the deputy of thunderclan, clearly I didn't win" she muttered, maybe if she wasn't fighting with clanmate who was an airhead she might've stood a chance.

Springpaw looked up to Birdsnow as she spoke once more, about the raid and the few who were stupid to attack clanmates. Her lone green tried to catch sight of Birchpaw and the other mentioned cat but she didn't see them, must have run off. Honestly, she was wondering how Birchpaw became a warrior in the first place, especially with all the trouble she caused. It wasn't that hard to just not start bad rumors around the clan about those you didn't like or agree with. She also couldn't understand how it was hard to listen to a cat that had authority over them, it had her rolling her eyes into her head. Springpaw wished that Riverclan could catch a break from everything and focus on fixing themselves from the inside. Guess that was too much to ask for from others, maybe soon it will happen.

She had been stewing away in her thoughts that she almost missed her name being called and then Cormie speaking to her again. Wait, was this the moment she had been fighting for?! Was she finally becoming a warrior?! Finally, after she constantly looked for someone to give her any sort of training. No longer would anyone look down on her just because she had paw in her name, no longer could they ignore her! Maybe others would show her some respect now that she was going to be a warrior! "Thank you, I've been fighting so hard to go far in my training for this, don't worry though I'll make sure you can join me as a warrior too! No struggling for you like I did I'll make sure of it!" it was her promise to the other. The lionheart gave a nod towards the other before she raced off to the front to stand before Birdsnow.

You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze turned his attention from Adderpaw the moment that Birdsnow began to speak, giving his leader his full attention. She made a note about finding outsiders on the borders that felt ultimately unnecessary, wasn't all that already the case for outsiders. What happened to make Birdsnow feel the need to clarify that. Was Riverclan so tangled up they can't even get outsiders out of the territory without talking back. The tom 'lashed' his tail once sharply before listening as Birdsnow continued.

The leader continued to put her paw down on Doedapple's fighting and bickering, which Seabreeze was pleased to see. Then the mood brightened as Birdsnow called forth some apprentices, Mistypaw being one of them. The warrior wasn't very familiar with the other two but Springpaw was a Lionheart, at least they would be gaining two new warriors with reason. The tom remained silent as he waited for Birdsnow to continue.

Birdsnow

Treepaw, Mistypaw and then Springpaw all eventually padded upwards, and after whispering to Rainpaw to stay where he was and don’t fall off, Birdsnow quickly climbed down off the stone. One thing she hadn’t liked about some warrior ceremonies she had seen was the lack of intimacy during the special moment. She was proud as hell of these kids and she wanted to be able to be a bit more traditional with this.

”Mistypaw, Treepaw, Springpaw. Do you vow to be loyal and protect RiverClan even at the cost of your lives?” Standing in front of them, she already knew the answers but you know. Tradition was tradition.

She was not planning to leave her clan again anytime soon no matter the circumstances and she would die for her clanmates (as long as they didn't to stupid stuff like Birchpaw).

Birdsnow

They all answered promptly, to her delight. Since Treepaw had been the first to come forward, she would start with him. Padding to stand in front of the young tom, she smiled warmly at him. ”Treepaw. You have trained long and well in the ways of a warrior and have served your Clan well. RiverClan honors your loyalty and sweetness. Treepaw, you will now be known as Treeheart.” This little bird had been the one receiving the tip, and she had heard that Tree had wanted one name in particular. She leaned forward to gently press her nose to the new warrior’s forehead. ”Congratulations, Treeheart.” She murmured with a knowing smile, emphasizing his new suffix. Hoping he appreciated getting the name he wanted, although she wouldn’t mind much if not.

Moving on to Mistypaw, she bit back a trill of pride. Maybe this one was a little too personal. ”Mistypaw; you have trained hard and proven yourself as a good RiverClan warrior. We honor your strength and empathy. Mistypaw, from this day on you will be known as Mistyshard.” Shard. For her sharpness, for her strength. Leaning forward, she attempted to press her nose against her best friend’s forehead, swallowing a lump in her throat. ”You did it.” She whispered, feeling a joyful smile grow on her face for her friend. She deserved this. They all did. They could have a more personal celebration later, not in front of everyone, but that should do for now.

Now onto Springpaw. One of her most dedicated Lionhearts. ”Springpaw, you have trained well and served RiverClan loyally and fiercely. RiverClan honors your dedication and loyalty. Springpaw, from now on you’ll be known as Springburst.” Leaning forward, she tried to do the same gesture, nose to her forehead, smiling at the final of the three new warriors. ”Congratulations, you’ve earned this.”

Stepping back, offering a final nod and proud smile to the trio before climbing back atop the Floodstone, she lifted her chin. ”RiverClan welcomes you as our newest warriors.”

The first three warriors. The RiverClan queen looked down from her throne at the three. And to start the chant, she took a deep breath before doing so. ”Treeheart! Mistyshard! Springburst!”

She’d let them have their moment before calling kits up.

Treeheart Treeheart treeheart he thought, ``I am Treeheart: warrior of Riverclan!`` He whisper to himself, ``Treeheart``

Molekit watched the ceremony with those big amber eyes of his. His nose twitched as looked around, watching his Clanmates shout and cheer. This was his first Clan meeting. He'd been too young to attend any of Larkstar's meetings. Now he watched Birdsnow stand above the Clan and give some apprentices their warrior names. He wondered what it would be like when he got his warrior name. Would anybody cheer for him? Would anybody really care?

The kit pondered these questions for a moment as he sat down. The little fireball sniffed and just continued watching, knowing that no one would ever come to bump noses or congratulate him. He had no idea who his parents were, and poor Molekit was too shy to talk to the other kits. He'd rather be in a corner daydreaming.

Tulipkit bellowed out her Clanmates names, hooting and hollering loudly. She loved watching the ceremonies, though she couldn't deny that she was salty that the apprentices got to go first. Usually kits were supposed to go first, and today was HER day. However, watching the warrior ceremony was a nice distraction from that sinking feeling, the feeling that everything was wrong. Her brother still wasn't here, and he was probably gone for good at this point. He should be here getting his apprentice name with her, and getting a mentor with her. Yet Fogkit had vanished, and no one had told her the truth of her brothers whereabouts. Still, she pushed it all down in an attempt to be happy for her Clanmates. She just had to keep distracting herself like this. It was better than dealing with those horrible feelings of sadness.

Bunnytuft smiled proudly as he cheered for these three apprentices. RiverClan had so many, that it was hard to keep track of who was who, but most of the apprentices were pretty okay nowadays. Key word: most.

He sat with his tail wrapped around his feet, waiting patiently for the apprentice ceremonies and for the rest of the meeting. Lots of things had happened in RiverClan lately, and while Birdsnow had addressed some things, she hadn't addresses everything. Despite that, he had confidence that the young deputy-turned leader could - would shoulder the burdens of leading the Clan and help them rise from the ashes.

Wishkit cheered Treeheart! Mistyshard! Springburst!

Rabbitkit cheered Treeheart! Mistyshard! Springburst! Before she would have been excited that she was probably going to be apprenticed this meeting, now that she had reached six moons old, but now that Blossomkit was dead she no longer cared. She just wanted her sister back. Or to join her in StarClan. She didn't care which.

The blue tabby was excited when he heard his friends name called for a warrior ceremony. Mistypaw, he didn't know her well, but they were birdsnow's apprentice and they both had one eye. Springpaw, Well he remebered her for as long as he could, and oh dear... What happened to her eye? The apprentice crept up the floodstone to get a good view of Birdsnow making warriors. His blue pelt stood out from the floodstone, but furbs would protect him. Rainpaw smiled as his friends got their warrior names. "Mistysward! Swingfurst!" he cheered. He smiled at Springburst. Soon, it would be his turn.

Eaglekit watched with delight as cats were called up for their warrior names, having never seen a ceremony like this before. Would that be her up there one day? Would Birdsnow say all those nice things about her too?? Would her clanmates cheer her name with the same fervor they were cheering now? Eaglekit cheered raucously for the newly named warriors along with everyone else, the energy of the gathered cats flowing through her and making her fur stand on end. Maybe this is what clan life is supposed to be like.

The crimson stained tabby watched as Treepaw got his name. Treeheart. It had a nice ring to it for sure. Oh wait.. it was her turn. A smile was plastered on her lips as Birdsnow announced her traits and new name. Misty...shard. She hadn't had any name in particular that she wished for, so she was more than happy with her new suffix. She let Birdsnow do the gesture and let out a warm purr at the leader's words. "Indeed, I did," she whispered warmly before stepping back with a grin.

"Treeheart! Springburst!" she cheered proudly, waiting for the next announcement to commence.

Even the relatively idiotic cats had kept their mouths from spewing foolish nonsense for the moment, and she would consider that a step in the right direction.

Now there were a lot of kits needing a ceremony, then she had some Lionhearts to name- and a lionheart to demote, and then a deputy. She was sure there'd be other things to address- like the gathering- but they could cross that bridge when they reached it.

Waiting for the chanting to die down, she continued. ”Bonekit, Wishkit, Rabbitkit, Sparrowkit, Eaglekit, Berrykit, Mossykit, Wolfkit, Tulipkit, Orchidkit, Ghostkit, step forward please. It’s time y’all were made apprentices.” Some of these kits had waited an extra moon, so it was high time that they were apprenticed.

Goldfish noted how her apprentice had staggered off to the apprentice's den, appearing in pain. She'd have to talk to Mink and Cobs
about that after the meeting. For now, though, she yowled out the names
of the new warriors eagerly and fondly, before gazing directly at Springburst
and winked, eyes gleaming with happiness. The clan spoke as one. This
was good. Right. How it should be. She then eyed the kits, warmly, yet
cautiously. She recalled her awful kithood with a shudder, but suppressed
it and gave Birdsnow a supportive, beaming grin. She was forever
loyal to her leader. Then, she thought about deputyship. No, she was
training an apprentice. She wasn't even done training one apprentice.
But, she thought, Dusklion, in her opinion, would be a good choice. she
kept it to herself and watched Birdsnow. She would choose a deputy soon.
She had to. It might soon become a sign of weakness to ThunderClan.
Deputy. Her heart longed for the option. StarClan, she eyed it. Deputy.
It was a good thought and she wanted it. Goldfish
wanted to hold the thought close and settle on it. But she knew it was unlikely.
She knew Dusklion was a good choice, or someone else- anyone else but her.
Goldfish knew in her right mind she wouldn't get it. And that was okay. She was
okay with someone else getting it. She'd be happy. But she couldn't stop the fiery
ambition from scorching in her gut. She couldn't bear to see it go. Mmm... Either
way she'd support her leader and feel good. For now, she should just focus on being
a good mate, friend, mentor, sister, and warrior she could be. In RiverClan, she felt
important. Like she could do anything. And that was enough. The ambition could wait.
Could make her a lionheart, maybe. And There were more cats who deserved it than
she herself could ever. She felt a mix of ambition and

Dusklion - RiverClan Warrior

It was clear as her gaze shifted towards Eaglekit that the young kitten was excited about her eventual ceremony. But now it seemed listening to Birdsnow that perhaps she'd get to experience a little bit of it. "That's you, kid!" Dusklion purred as she aimed to ruffle the fur between Eaglekit's ears - then made sure to smooth it back after incase Eagle wanted to look presentable. "Go get 'em, Wings. Show the rest of these cats you're gonna be the best apprentice ever!" Her tail swished behind her as she beamed down at the she-kit beside her.

Eaglekit started when she heard her name in the long list of kits, momentarily frozen in place. Wait, wait wait wait wait. Oh stars, OH STARS!! She was old enough now, yes! Eaglekit sprang to her paws, looking up at Dusklion and Cobwebpaw, excitement glittering in her gaze. This was her chance! Her moment! She would finally learn how to be of use! Dusklions words and subsequent fur ruffling had tears of appreciation and joy sparking in her big green eyes, and she sniffled and quickly wiped them away before leaping to her paws.

The maine coon kit skittered up to the Floodstone, settling down next to the other two who had arrived, eagerly awaiting Mossykit, her bestest friend. They were being apprenticed together! This was amazing!

The was easily the best day of Eaglekit's life. She only wished Rushwater and Tansypaw were here to see it. But that was okay. She didn't need them anymore. She had Dusklion, Cobwebpaw, Mossykit, and whoever her new mentor would be. Oh, she hoped they would actually want to train her...

Wishkit stepped up. The six moon old was very nervous about becoming an apprentice, mostly because she didn't want to have to get in water again, for the first time since her swimming kit curriclum lesson and she REALLY didn't want to have to learn how to fight.

Rabbitkit stepped up. Before Blossomkit's death she would have been excited but now all the six moon old could think about was that Blossomkit should be here with her and not in StarClan. Without Blossomkit she couldn't bring herself to care that she was being apprenticed.

Sparrowkit stepped up, looking like she didn't care. The fact she had been born missing one of her front feet didn't slow her down at all. It never had. She was happy that she was being apprenticed but why would she bother to show it? She wasn't even sure that she deserved to become an apprentice. The six moon old wished Mom, Cottonkit, and Squrrielkit could be here, but they had been missing for a while, Mom for the longest. She still sometimes wondered who her Dad was and why she had never met him. She didn't know who her mentor would be. Not that it mattered. She couldn't trust whoever they were anyways. She couldn't trust any living cats except maybe any that she already trusted, except maybe kits. Not anymore. Not ever again. She wasn't sure if she could even trust herself anymore. poppy

She wants to know what's going on and if they're gonna claw those ThunderClan losers back!! Maybe she could convince Slatestripe that battle training before anything else is the most important. Honestly, considering the fact that their home had just been raided and she hadn't been able to help would probably only bolster her case in convincing points.

Skidding to a stop in the crowd, Wrenpaw watches as some kits step up to Birdsnow - oh, are there new apprentices joining her in the den? That'll be fun, plenty more people to flaunt her greatness- ah, she means, to have a friendly rivalry with.

Minnowsplash smiled fondly at the little cats scampering to receive their mentors. Although it was unlikely they would receive an apprentice (they were hardly even a warrior, much less an experienced one), the thought of new cats aspiring to carry on the warrior code lightened their heart. Even through the midst of so much loss, joy would always find its way. Minnowsplash purred softly. This, this moment was why the ThunderClan rats would never be able to tear RiverClan down. This was why RiverClan would always rise to the top, despite day after day of suffering. This was the reason why Minnowsplash would gladly give their life for the clan. I wish all of StarClan is watching, they thought. Today, these apprentices show the skies what it means to get back up again.

Adderpaw
Determined ⋆ Loyal ⋆ Lawful Good ⋆ She/Her ⋆ Beefed Up T3
“One day I’ll be the greatest warrior of all the clans!”

Adderpaw wanted to say a few more things to Seabreeze, but was disappointed he didn't take up her call to action. Oh well, suppose all she could do was add more wind to his sails so hopefully get him out of that way of thinking. These things had to take time it seemed.

She pulled her attention away from Seabreeze as she heard Birdsnow speak up again. Her heart softened when she heard her leader take a more nuanced approach to outsiders and loners. Adderpaw was beyond thankful that she never had to enact the kill on sight order on them—Especially after having killed a cat herself. Never again did she want to do something so horrible again. Adderpaw felt like she was never again going to be the same person yet despite that she wanted to protect what was left of her.

Without a doubt or a second thought Adderpaw would be willing to push an outsider towards the outskirts. If she found them interesting enough, or pathetic enough, she would want to talk to them and not have to spill blood. Mind you she was willing to claw the face off a cat acting up, just not kill them. Just because she was restricting herself from killing another cat did not mean she was going to go easy on her foes.

Adderpaw almost got herself lost in thinking but before that could happen Birdsnow spoke up once again. Her heart skipped a few beats and her lungs lost air when the fate words gathering apprentices slipped out her leader's lips. Then.... Then... She waited... She waited...

Anger. Resentment. Discountent.

All of these words or some mix of them filled Adderpaw when she did not hear her name be called out. She asked Birdsnow right in front of her while covered in blood to become a warrior but she was not called up. Was this some kind of mistake? A cruel joke? Adderpaw wanted to shout out at the top of her lungs. She wanted to make a scene. But..

To try and temper her anger Adderpaw started to groom herself roughly and quickly. She was never a cat to clean herself more than to get dirt off of herself so her fur was always wild looking. Anyone who knew her well would be able to pick that up from her that she wasn't feeling right. That at least something was up. Yet how many cats could Adderpaw count on her claws that were close to her? And she groomed herself even faster with that thought dancing across her mind.

Make a scene.. Hells. No, I couldn’t become one of those cats. A quick scowl came across Adderpaw’s face as she thought back to all the cats who decided to make a scene during the meetings many times. God, Adderpaw couldn’t even count how many times that had happened in this clan. She wasn’t going to ruin another cats special day as well. When she had become an apprentice she felt over the moon. Becoming a warrior was an even greater honor so Adderpaw couldn’t imagine how a cat would feel. Anger, jealousy.. She shook her head to get those negative emotions away from herself. Maybe her warrior announcement would be after everything else. She had to lie to herself to calm herself down.

“Treeheart!” She shouted out, enthusiasm hiding discontent.

“Mistyshard!” These were her clanmate..

“Springburst!” Her friends.

So why couldn’t she stop being jealous and just be happy for them?

Then the meeting moved onto kits. Adderpaw purred amusement when she saw the little fluffballs run up to the stone. She wondered how excited each of them were. No one could have ever been as excited as she, herself, was one her special day but maybe they were a sniff as close as excited.

Three new warriors were named, which was a delightful thing to hear. It had been so long since any apprentices managed to make the rank; it was almost like this was a sign, that RiverClan was beginning to move past its troubles into a new era. Stars, Fadingsun hoped it would last.

New apprentices were next. Quite a few kits were named, causing the black-and-orange warrior's ears to perk. Would one of these kits become his apprentice?

---------------------------------------------------

Of course, Slatestripe caught the hostility thrown his way by Dusklion. He flattened his ears against his head. He knew he deserved this sort of reaction, but that didn't make it any easier to deal with. Him and Dusklion had once held a good bond, but all of that had clearly been tarnished by his decision to leave RiverClan.

It felt like a hard lump had formed in his throat. One of these days, he'd stop disappointing the cats in his life who cared about him. He'd fallen again and again, and repeatedly failed those who he should never have come close to failing. All because he was blinded by anger and disappointment at a leader who didn't even end up staying in the position for much longer after he left. It wasn't worth it- any of it.

Birdsnow's next words were foggy; the small warrior was aware of cheering around him, but he wasn't entirely sure what for. All that he could focus on was his own overwhelming guilt and grief, and the despair he felt wondering if those left would ever forgive him for the choices he'd made.

It’s time y’all were made apprentices.” Some of these kits had waited an extra moon, so it was high time that they were apprenticed.

Berrykit stepped forward, her eyes practically the size of moons. She glanced back at Stagheart and Moonpaw nervously, but Stagheart just gave her a small and proud nod. His eyes were shining, too. He was proud.

She tilted up her chin to don an air of confidence she didn't full feel and stepped forward, trying to keep her limbs from shaking. Ever since she'd been brought in from the outside as a young, helpless kit, some cats had been against her — but now was the time she'd start her training. She wouldn't be helpless anymore.

With those thoughts, Berrykit looked up at her leader, taking a breath to steady herself as she prepared for the biggest step in her life thus far.

Swiftly striding forward as her name was called, Orchidkit held her head high with confidence as she approached the Floodstone. Finally she'd become an apprentice and she wouldn't have to deal with wll those whiny babies in the nursery anymore. Perfect. Peace from their stupidity at last.

Heather-blue eyes shining coldly as she awaited for her mentor to be announced, the charcoal tabby point couldn't help wonder what her mentor would be like. Strong hopefully and not foolish. She liked powerful cats who actually deserved respect...though they'd have to earn her's first...but that would all depend on her opinion.

Birdsnow looked down at the kits- thank god everyone showed up. That made this easy. ”Bonekit, Wishkit, Rabbitkit, Sparrowkit, Eaglekit, Berrykit, Mossykit, Wolfkit, Tulipkit, Orchidkit and Ghostkit. From this moment until you earn your warrior names, you’ll be known as Bonepaw, Wishpaw, Rabbitpaw, Sparrowpaw, Eaglepaw, Berrypaw, Mossypaw, Wolfpaw, Tulippaw, Orchidpaw and Ghostpaw.”

Starry skies, she had to catch her breath after that list. Waiting a moment to steady her breath- (and legs as a quick glance at her chest informed her that her chest wound oozed blood again) and to let the new names sink in, she then started with mentors. ”Bonepaw, you're with Bluefang. Wishpaw, your mentor is Sweetsong, Rabbitpaw you get Honeystep. Troutstone you got Sparrowpaw. Fadingsun, you're Eaglepaws mentor, Berrypaw you'll be trained by Mistyshard, Mossypaw you get Dusklion, Wolfpaw you'll be with Sparrowsnarl, Orchidpaw I'll give you to Kestrelskies, Tulippaw you're with Beanfloat and Ghostpaw, Spottedstream will be mentoring you. I expect all you mentors to pass along the best of your knowledge and prepare these kids for the world the best you can.”

Speaking of that, she wanted to speed through Rainpaws training asap. She wanted Rainwarrior at the next meeting. She wanted at least two warrior ceremonies by the next meeting- Adderpaw would be a warrior if she wasn't so young. She didn't expect the 8 moon old to understand, but Bird wasn't naming anyone under 10 moons a warrior, much less an 8 moon old.

She started the chant, taking a deep breath beforehand. Bonepaw! Wishpaw! Rabbitpaw! Sparrowpaw! Eaglepaw! Berrypaw! Mossypaw! Wolfpaw! Tulippaw! Orchidpaw! Ghostpaw!

Waiting for that to die down, she paused and then continued after a few moments.

”All apprentices in need of a reassignment, come forward. Your mentor doesn't have to be missing, if you don't think they're up to par, then step forward and we'll get ‘ya a mentor who can do the job right.”

Honeystep heart skipped a step when she heard that she was going to be a mentor. A mentor already? She wad a pretty much fresh warrior but then again that just meant she could remember everything fresher!

She waited for her new apprentice to come over before she began to talk softly to not interrupt the meeting. "Hello Rabbitpaw, it is a pleasure to become your mentor. So you want to go out as soon as this meeting is over?" She said sweetly. This was almost like having a kid. How wonderful.

Eaglekit--no, Eaglepaw had never felt more joy in her life than right now. She had made it to an apprentice, and Mossypaw was right next to her. She twisted to look at her friend, a wide grin stretching across her fluffy face. "You got Dusklion! I'm kinda jealous!" While the headstrong warrior scared her a little, she had gotten to know her vaguely while healing her. Fadingsun, Dusklion's brother, was a mystery to her. But since the two were already close... "Maybe we can ask Dusklion and Fadingsun to train us together sometimes!!" That would be a real treat, wouldn't it? The apprentice twisted to look into the crowd towards Dusklion and Cobwebpaw, bouncing on her toes as if to say "look at me! I did it!"

As the apprentices broke off to greet their mentors, Eaglepaw padded over to Fadingsun, head held high. She greeted him with a big smile. "Hi! I'm so very excited to learn from you, Fadingsun." She reached her nose up to touch his, as she had seen other apprentices do.

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze found himself purring at the announced apprentices, soon they would have strong warriors that would act right and help make Riverclan as it was. Seabreeze almost wanted an apprentice of his own, teaching made him feel a bit more in his paws, almost as if he was reaffirming that he knew what he did and could help his clan...but he wasn't sure he could raise a warrior that was strong. Especially when looking at his performance during the raid. He should've done better- all he did was lose his temper and land a few measly hits. The tom found him wincing where he stood but quickly focused back into the meeting, calling out the apprentices' new names with a foreced cheer even though he really was happy about the apprentices,

"Bonepaw! Wishpaw! Rabbitpaw! Sparrowpaw! Eaglepaw! Berrypaw! Mossypaw! Wolfpaw! Tulippaw! Orchidpaw! Ghostpaw!" Wow, that was quite the list. Next was the reassignments, that was the other concern that Seabreeze had that lack of responsibility from mentors, sure Seabreeze didn't think he could teach fighting as he should be able to but he can admit that and get help if he needed when training his hypothetical apprentice. Not leave them to their own devices. Honestly, Adderpaw was performing her duties more successfully than most of their warriors.

Seabreeze sighed and looked towards Birdsnow again. He would just have to work that much harder. Hopefully, helping the kit set a headstart on their training would help mentors do their jobs more. The warrior turned to Adderpaw but didn't say anything. The tom knew that the molly would raise some fine warriors and be an even finer warrior herself when it was her time. In all honesty, perhaps it'll be the next meeting depending on when that is. Adderpaw was still a bit young for being a warrior. Seabreeze himself was only made a warrior this moon.

"Next time, I am sure." The tom whispered to Adderpaw, hoping to comfort her slightly. He hadn't really known Adderpaw but he knew of her aspirations.

Ough, that was a lot of new apprentices, Wrenpaw noticed with a frown as she called out what names she could remember. Her den was going to be way to squished with so many new bodies. But none of this was exciting!! She wanted to know if there were plans for battle! She wanted to know who the new deputy was going to be and she wanted to know what Birdsnow had to say about RiverClan's current situation. They were down like, every possible rank right now and that was frustrating and annoying. She'd been just a kit when Larkstar was made leader a moon after Gingerstar, and she was so small when Beanstar, the leader before them was alive. Wrenpaw had never known a RiverClan with stable high ranks. Perhaps Birdsnow would usher in the change the clan needed? Wrenpaw used to think Larkstar would do that, but that coward of a cat vanished in the night and no one's seen or scented so much as one of her whiskers.

Impatience prickled on the she-cat's pelt as she narrowed aquamarine eyes at her new clan leader, scrutinizing the way Birdsnow snapped at the others in the clan who irked her but still remained gentle with the apprentice on the Floodstone with her. Birdsnow was cool. Wrenpaw kinda wanted some cool scars like she had.

Duststorm finally drifted to the back of the crowd and listened. Her ears shot up at Bonepaw's name. She yowled in excitement, almost bouncing with joy. She purred but paused as his mentor was called. Her joy mixed with shock. She'd never heard of this cat. Bluefang?

She harbored no ill feelings, and kept her eyes bright. Birdsnow was a tough hairball, and knew what choices needed to be made.

Probably... a good choice. She tried convincing herself she wasn't upset.
Though Duststorm couldn't help but feel a little twinge of hurt. Her tail swished as she fell quiet.

It may have only been a few times, the training she offered him, but she had wanted to take Bonekit all the way, through his apprenticeship, to his final name. She wanted to purr and share the fact that they didn't have to quit. Sitting, she lowered her eyes.

I hardly passed my own apprenticeship. Why would I ever get an apprentice? She sighed. This was a fun ceremony. She shouldn't sour it with her ill begotten jealousy.

Raising her head, she offered her kind gaze, but could no longer muster the energetic yowling she wished to give.

Listening to BirdSnow make some kits apprentices he couldn’t help but dread the idea he might be assigned one, before he’d probably have been happy to receive an apprentice- sorta? He couldn’t exactly recall whether or not he wanted one. Anyhow, flutter paw had been a great apprentice. One of a kind, he couldn’t linger on hating the idea of getting an apprentice forever though and he definitely couldn’t linger on flutterpaw’s death. When it was time to cheer, he cheered making sure his voice was extra loud today. ‘Bonepaw! Wishpaw! Rabbitpaw! Sparrowpaw! Eaglepaw! Berrypaw! Mossypaw! Wolfpaw! Tulippaw! Orchidpaw! Ghostpaw!’ hopefully none of their mentors slacked.

Oh dear, that certainly was a lot of new apprentices. There was no way the poor tom was ever gonna remember them all, so he may as well breeze over this bit, and make a noise that sounded like he was cheering their new names. This plan was stumped however, when he heard his name uttered -thankfully before that of his apprentice's, so he had time to recollect himself- and he was given another apprentice. Didn't he already have one? Sunsetpaw. Why didn't Birdsnow give someone else a go?

Then again, maybe he should be seeing this as a honor. Maybe she thought he was a good enough warrior that he could train two apprentices. Maybe he could! So, Sparrowpaw.
First step of training your apprentice: Find them.
Probably the hardest part when you do not know who they are.

Sparrowpaw searched for her mentor, who she didn't trust and didn't plan on ever trusting. She didn't trust any warriors. Perhaps kits, since most kits were innocent though she obviously wouldn't trust them the same way you would trust a older cat. By trust in the case of kits she meant that she wouldn't push them away to try to prevent them from trying to befriend her and snap at them to go away and leave her alone if they tried to befriend her anyways. Perhaps she trusted a few apprentices, but no warriors. It didn't take her too long to find her mentor. Hey she meowed as she scanned Troutstone all over with her distrusting gaze. MockingRabbit

The new apprentice practically shook on her feet as Birdsnow's eyes met hers, announcing her new name. Berrykit — no, Berrypaw! — was grateful for the swath of apprentices surrounding her, blocking her from being the only center of attention.

Her gaze lingered over the cats chanting their names, a caterwaul of joy in the air. She ducked her head under the looks of so many cats. Still, it was refreshing after the despondent air of loss and grief after the battle.

She glanced at Moonpaw as the dark-furred cat stepped forward. She mentioned she didn't have a mentor — must be getting a new one! She flashed Moonpaw a smile of encouragement, happy for the nice cat she just met. Now that she was an apprentice, maybe they'd train together?

But Moonpaw's a little older... maybe not...

...Mistyshard. That's who Birdsnow had said for Berrypaw's mentor, yes? The newly-named apprentice shuffled her paws as she looked around, waiting to see if the warrior would approach her. She didn't really talk to many cats — would the mentor even know who she was?

There was a proud grin on Stagheart's face as he watched Berrykit walk forward and receive her apprentice name. He joined in the chorus, cheering the new names of all the apprentices, making sure Berrypaw's was the loudest yowl of all.

The reserved tom nodded in satisfaction as Birdsnow assigned Mistyshard — a new warrior, however, certainly a promising mentor. From what he had seen, anyway. He was sure she'd be great for little Berrypaw.

A small pang fluttered through his chest. For just a moment, he felt like a real father rather than an adopted one, watching his kit finally start her journey into growing up. Eyes shining with newfound emotion, he left the smirk settling on his face as the ceremony continued.

Seeing the younger molly's smile made her feel…less pathetic so only thing she could do was smile right back, though in the end Berrypaw would get her final name before her, something to look forward to before her…have cats that actually stayed and cared for her.

Mistyshard watched with a tiny smile as the kits got their apprentice names. It had been a super exciting ceremony for her, and she hoped she’d get an apprentice of her own soon. She wanted to assist many cats with training now that she was a warrior and in general just become a much more active presence as she felt like there was so much more to do.

Her ears pricked as she listened for the mentor and apprentice assignments. Hold on… had she heard that correctly? She’d be training Berrypaw? Oh, this meeting was just amazing. So much happening in one meeting and she certainly was going to live up to the reputation she had right now. Without much hesitation the crimson stained tabby headed over to her apprentice, dipping her head in greeting. Oh gosh, she was probably scaring Berrypaw away right now. Her whole pelt was covered in blood from the battle and she still had too many untreated injuries.

Berrypaw was comforted by Moonpaw's smile back, but couldn't help notice the somberness left as an undertone in the molly's face. She's getting a new mentor. Shouldn't she be happy?

Before Berrypaw could say anything, pawsteps thumping behind her followed by the strong scent of blood practically made her jump in the air. By instinct she whirled around, only to immediately relax at the welcoming countenance of the warrior.

So this is Mistyshard!

Berrypaw had been insanely nervous to meet her mentor — after all, being non-Clanborn didn't exactly make you popular. But Mistyshard showed nothing but excitement, even promising to make her into a strong warrior.

A strong warrior? Me? A brief bubble of hope rose in Berrypaw's chest. She managed a smile at Mistyshard at the new mentor offered her insight.

"H-Hi, I'm Berrypaw!" She greeted cheerfully, though the edge of nervousness wasn't completely gone. Luckily, Mistyshard's friendliness made it easier. "Oh, you already knew that. Hah... well, ah, I-I'd like to know so much! Ah... when's our first session? And what are we doing?"

A million thoughts fluttered through her mind. It was real now — she'd finally be learning how to hunt, swim, and... fight. Hopefully there wouldn't be a battle as brutal as the recent one in her time.

Whatever the reason be, Goldfish had a disturbing thought- she'd noticed Dasiypaw's sickly appearance lately. What if... what if she died? The blood drained from her face and she suddenly felt dizzy. No, not Daisypaw. She was bright, eager, healthy, and most of all, had a long life ahead of her. Goldfish didn't think she could bear to see her die. She knew she was acting a bit silly, so the molly cleared her throat and shifted her hind paws back a bit to allow a more comfortable position on her wounded shoulder.

The new warrior had returned to the same spot she had been in before she got called, right next to Cormorantpaw. No need for her to find a spot anymore since her best friend was here now. "Maybe the next meeting you can be a warrior too!" she purred as she set her lone green eye onto her friend. She was still feeling ecstatic about being a warrior now that she could barely contain it, she could do anything. She could leave camp with no worries, then again she could do it as a lionheart anyway. Her attention returned back to the front just in time to catch all the newly made apprentices. Springburst joined in chanting the new apprentice's names along with everyone else before she quietened down.

The molly purred a little as Berrypaw returned her brightness. She already noticed the apprentice seemed to be a cat she sort of needed to get out of her shell, but she could do that. She herself had lots of experience. Not that she had always been like that, but rather with the death of all her loved ones, she'd fallen into that pit and needed to be pulled out. Luckily clanmates like Fawnlight, Birdsnow and Blizzardwind had been around during that time... now only Birdsnow was left.

Well, now was not the best time to debate about that. She directed her attention back towards Berrypaw, glad that the young molly wasn't terrified of her bloodied appearance. Mistyshard would get that cleaned up... soon. When the burial and all the other things that had to be completed were taken care of. "...Not too sure on when our first session will be. Usually I'd say tommorow so that you can get a little headstart on training, but I still need a bit of time to recover so... in two sunrises!" she mewed with a nod. Mostly to confirm the date to herself, she didn't want to accidentally miss it.

"What we're doing? Oh, I was thinking some swimming or battle. Your pick." She tipped her head, curious to see what Berrypaw's answer would be.

He/him | Riverclan Warrior | Moons: 15 | Purrks: Go with the Flow | The Collector | Ultimate Predator |
“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze found himself purring at the announced apprentices, soon they would have strong warriors that would act right and help make Riverclan as it was. Seabreeze almost wanted an apprentice of his own, teaching made him feel a bit more in his paws, almost as if he was reaffirming that he knew what he did and could help his clan...but he wasn't sure he could raise a warrior that was strong. Especially when looking at his performance during the raid. He should've done better- all he did was lose his temper and land a few measly hits. The tom found him wincing where he stood but quickly focused back into the meeting, calling out the apprentices' new names with a foreced cheer even though he really was happy about the apprentices,

"Bonepaw! Wishpaw! Rabbitpaw! Sparrowpaw! Eaglepaw! Berrypaw! Mossypaw! Wolfpaw! Tulippaw! Orchidpaw! Ghostpaw!" Wow, that was quite the list. Next was the reassignments, that was the other concern that Seabreeze had that lack of responsibility from mentors, sure Seabreeze didn't think he could teach fighting as he should be able to but he can admit that and get help if he needed when training his hypothetical apprentice. Not leave them to their own devices. Honestly, Adderpaw was performing her duties more successfully than most of their warriors.

Seabreeze sighed and looked towards Birdsnow again. He would just have to work that much harder. Hopefully, helping the kit set a headstart on their training would help mentors do their jobs more. The warrior turned to Adderpaw but didn't say anything. The tom knew that the molly would raise some fine warriors and be an even finer warrior herself when it was her time. In all honesty, perhaps it'll be the next meeting depending on when that is. Adderpaw was still a bit young for being a warrior. Seabreeze himself was only made a warrior this moon.

"Next time, I am sure." The tom whispered to Adderpaw, hoping to comfort her slightly. He hadn't really known Adderpaw but he knew of her aspirations.[ @Fish (https://warriorcatsonline.com/forums/member.php?u=19613) for slight Adder interaction, feel free to ignore if you want.]

“One day I’ll be the greatest warrior of all the clans!”

A flinch came from the young apprentice when she heard Seabreeze peak up. She stopped grooming herself and lowered her ears, looking off. It seemed like her stress response was caught by the older warrior. Her feelings were supposed to be hidden when they were too negative. "Better be.." She grumbled sinking her head a little lower.

Tulippaw beamed as she got her new name. Tulippaw. It has such a nice ring to it. She'd waited a whole extra moon and finally she was an apprentice! As Birdsnow continued on with the ceremony she also got to hear who her mentor was, and it was none other than her older brother Beanfloat! How lucky! She thought to herself as she stepped away from the others to find her brother.

Tulippaw scanned the crowd until she finally caught sight of Beanfloat, and pushed her way to the sea of cats to get to her older brother. "Beanfloat! I get to be your apprentice now!" The excited calico purred as she touched noses with her brother.

Tulippaw almost felt guilty. She was so happy about her apprentice ceremony, and rightfully so. She was always itching to get out of the nursery and out of the camp. She'd always been excited about having the whole world to explore!

... But of course the thought of Fogkit haunted her. The memories lingered. Just like they always did. They made her feel guilty and sad and angry, a swirl of negative emotions. Just like they always did.

No. Today her her day. Not Fogkit's. He was gone. And it seemed everyone moved on but her. She wouldn't let Fogkit ruin today, just like he ruined everyday.

Berrypaw nodded, tilting her head as she thought. Battle felt... too soon. She briefly flashed back to hunching over in the nursery, terrified as she watched cats rip each other apart. Lifeless bodies thumping to the ground, the stench of blood and ThunderClan filling the air, he screeches of pain...

She blinked a few times, willing the images away. "Ah... let's do swimming," she mewed. To be honest, she was a bit nervous of that as well, but had a bit more confidence in fighting water over another cat right now.

Two sunrises. She had two sunrises to prepare.

Heather-blue eyes gleaming pridefully as she was renamed Orchidpaw, she listened to her name being cheered by some of her clanmates which just fed her already massive ego. She would be taken seriously now, and she'd make sure she was respected or else she'd just have to beat up anyone her displeased her. Yep she would sure make her presence known now.

Snapping her attention back to Birdsnow, the new apprentice narrowed her eyes as she was given a mentor: Kestrelskies. She wasn't exactly sure who that was, nor did she care, but hopefully they wouldn't be totally defective or whatever. Oh, and they'd better teach her something or she'd be sure to have her revenge.

Glancing around coldly she spotted someone who she was pretty sure was her mentor and swiftly approched them, chest puffed out and tail high. "You, you're Kestrelskies?" she demanded, looking the older cat up and down critically as she waited for an answer.

Her ears perked up, a small glimmer of pride in her eye. An apprentice already? Did Birdsnow think she would make a good choice? Certainly she did, otherwise Orchidpaw wouldn't have been hers. The name wasn't too familiar because then again, she spent several moons dead, but that didn't matter. Surely, she could handle her.

The one eyed warrior chanted the names of the new apprentices when she heard a huff coming from an apprentice. Winterpaw, was his name? Nightspark's new apprentice. He looks mighty upset, the way she did when she was apprenticed under the stoic tom. Had her mentor already shown him the pit? Hopefully not.

A very loud and proud shape barreled up to her, and the warrior made a small noise as the apprentice demanded her identity. A proud, haughty stance, fierce eyes, and a pompous attitude.

...Ah. Was this some kind of cruel joke Birdsnow was playing on her? The way Orchidpaw stared at her made it clear she thought herself above everyone else- perhaps even Kestrelskies herself. She wondered if it was too late to ask Nightspark about the pit...

No. No pit for Orchidpaw, no mater how bothersome she would prove to be. "You can bet your little attitude I am." She said in her rumbly voice, an even mix of no-nonsense and amusement. Her single eye gave off a dark glare. Did Orchidpaw know she was a resurrected being? Well, maybe that should be one of her trump cards. Kestrelskies ducked her head for the traditional apprentice-mentor greeting before whispering into the apprentice's ear. "If you're up for it, I'll take you out on your territory tour as soon as we're finished. We start bright and early tomorrow."

....An apprentice!! He had an apprentice! Excitement rushed through his whole body, causing Fadingsun to immediately leap to his paws. This was his very first apprentice; after a whole season-cycle of time in RiverClan, it was finally his turn to pass his knowledge on!

His head whipped from one way to the next as he looked for his new 'paw. Eaglepaw was his name! The little guy ended up finding his way to Fadingsun; the warrior accepted the gesture to touch noses. Any awkwardness he usually felt around apprentices wasn't present; for some reason, this felt different.

"Hello Eaglepaw!" he purred. "I promise, I'll turn you into the best warrior RiverClan has ever seen." Getting an apprentice was certainly a surprise (although a welcome one). He wondered, albeit briefly, if this meeting would hold any other surprises before it concluded.

Dusklion - RiverClan Warrior

As the kits were called forward to their new mentors and apprenticed, Dusklion’s eyes glimmered with pride. New ‘paws meant new warriors in the future, and with it hopefully climbing out of the hole that RiverClan had been in the last couple seasons. Feeling Cobs lean against her she hid the mild ache it caused her wounds, which was easy enough when she heard her name called. There was a mixture of delight and apprehension swirling about in her chest; Kitefly registered in the back of her mind. Would Mossypaw just be a repeat? Maybe the second time would be the same as the first?

The dark tabby pushed away such thoughts for now as she got to her paws, tail waving behind her as the new apprentice came forward. ”Hey there kid! Excited to be trainin’ you. Once I’m all healed up, we’ll get started with the basics. Sound good?” Reaching down she aimed to offer her nose for Mossypaw to boop with his own. Not missing the comment from Eaglepaw, she cast her and and Fades a smirk. ”Hear that Fades? Time to pass down the family legacy!!” she called with an excited twitch of her whiskers. Afterwards, she joined her Clanmates in chanting the new ‘paw’s names.

Taking a seat once more and beckoning Mossypaw to sit beside her if he wanted, the warrior turned her attention back to Birds, excited and eager for the next coming announcements. Reassignments, probably new lionhearts, and then finally… deputy. ”This is it, Cobs. I’ve been workin’ my whole life for this moment,” she purred, dropping her voice low so only Cobs and Mossy if he’d sat next to her could hear.

”Moonpaw, you’re with Morningmimic. Garlicfeather, you get Toadpaw. Talonpaw, you’re training with Starlingflight. Strawberrypaw, you’ll be with Deerspark.” There were some apprentice who needed a mentor reassignment but didn’t step forward, so she just called up a few that she knew needed it. ”Cormorantpaw, you’re with me. Stagheart, you’re going to be training Mumblepaw.” She was tempted to apologize to some of these mentors for who they were assigned with, but she trusted the warriors to be good mentors. Hopefully Talonpaw would work well with Starlingflight.

And Mumblepaw was Mumblepaw, so… they’d see how this would go.

Next order of business. Lionhearts. ”After a moon of observation, I’ve decided to remove Nightspark from the Lionheart rank and keep Springburst and Cherryswirl. Nightspark, you’re welcome to attempt to earn it back but for now, you’re out.” She hadn’t seen him doing anything lately, and she was close to removing him as a mentor, too. ”To fill up the rest of the Lionhearts, I’d like to offer the position to Sparrowsnarl and Mistyshard. You’ve both been active warriors of RiverClan and would make great additions to the Lionheart position.”

”I also want to make a few things clear. There is one more spot up for grabs, so there’s always room for promotion. And that also means that just because you weren’t picked for Lionheart or deputy doesn’t mean that you should work less hard, if you’re working your tail off and you’re working harder than a Lionheart or hell, if you work harder than the deputy, then there’s a good chance you’ll be promoted. All depends on how bad you want it. And honestly, if you don’t get picked that doesn’t mean your not appreciated and it doesn’t mean that you should stop working. You should work for the good of the Clan, not yourself.” She wasn’t worried about anyone in particular, but Birchpaw’s outburst made her want to make this clear. She didn’t care how many predators they killed, Birchpaw had done those for selfish reasons and she wasn’t a fan of that.Bird wasn't going to let any more of that behavior slide.

”For the Head Lionheart, I've decided to offer Dusklion the position. You've proved yourself time and time again as an incredibly valuable member of the Clan and I think you'll do amazing with the promotion. You all will."

She lifted her muzzle, placing a gentle paw around Rainpaw to ensure he stayed stable beside her, and waited for her new Lionhearts to accept before moving on to deputy. The Clan could chant but she wanted to be sure that they accepted; it would be a bit odd of her to chant before they reacted, and Bird didn’t want to place any pressure on them. Although she did plan on asking Dusklion to come to the StarCave with her after this. So hopefully she accepted.

Garlic Feather
Purrks; Just a scratch| Beefed up tier 2|
He-Him { River Clan } Warrior

Garlic Feather lisened carefully to the reassignments, he almost missed his name being called and who he was meant to be mentoring (how embarrassing). Stars above, An apprentice? Maybe all that feeling like a failure about flutter paw had materialised the idea that he wanted another. Nonetheless, he did feel dreadfully honoured by the idea of being trusted with yet another chance to train one. Last time he’d been way too battle oriented, and even if he wasn’t necessarily good at hunting nor teaching he’d still give it the good old try. As he searched for the apprentice he realised Toad Paw had been one of the cats in the herb gathering contest that was on his- on the team that he was on. As GarlicFeather took a moment to search for them he remembered Toad Paw was blind, something he had unfortunately forgotten before tripping over his paws thinking of how not to screw this up. Now he thought about it, he’d have to adapt his training methods altogether just to fit Toad Paw. Well, nothing the one and only Garlic Feather couldn’t do! He listened to the rest briefly and let out a cheer for the new lionhearts, and by the stars did they deserve it, BirdSnow was making riverclan finally worth the effort at last. ‘Toad Paw?’ He made sure to keep his voice relatively hushed so that he didn’t shout in the middle of a meeting, trying to catch the apprentices attention, he couldn’t quite remember what they looked like actually apart from the more obvious that they were apprentice sized and probably somewhere in this crowd.

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

Seabreeze listened carefully to the reassignments and then the announcements of the new Lionhearts afterwards. A purr built in his throat, hopefully the Lionhearts and whoever the new deputy is can help Birdsnow. Sometimes, Seabreeze worried for the leader with all that she has been dealing with in her own with no deputy or medicine cat to help her. The tom brushed away those thoughts like dust out of his fur, it’ll get better. They had good warriors helping train new apprentices to have warriors with some more sense, they’ll have a deputy to help with the weight on Birdsnow’s shoulders, they have a temporary medicine cat to keep their clan healthy until they find a full one.

Despite the loss with Thunderclan, they were going to be okay, Seabreeze was going to do all that he can to help his clan no matter what. Clover paw will be able to see the clan, strong and stable, like she always wanted with Seabreeze in it. …Cloverpaw, it’s been awhile since her name hasn’t brought drowning sadness. The sandy grey-blue feline shuffled just slightly, staring up at Birdsnow. This was important, he didn’t know who would be called upon for deputy but whoever Birdsnow will pick would be the best for the job. After the meeting, Seabreeze would request more patrols from them, border, they needed to keep an eye out. They were getting better but the clan is still vulnerable- sadly from the some of the cats in it just as much as the clans that surrounds- Seabreeze wants to be able to keep the territory constantly checked. Someone should’ve seen such a crowd of Thunderclan cats on their way in- Seabreeze dug his claws into the ground beneath his paws.

They could only learn from this and prevent it from happening again as best as they can. Blue eyes peered around him, Adderpaw would likely be willing to go with him and maybe Fallendusk…also the herb patrol with Adderpaw. Seabreeze made a little checklist in his mind as he continued to await the newly named Lionhearts and head of Lionhearts’ reactions, waiting to see if they accept before calling out his congratulations. His ears remained perked and blue eyes watched the named warriors curiously.

Perking up as the Apprentice came within his sights Garlic feather bounded close but not too close as to not bump right into them and smiled, never mind being worried about apprentices what he should be worried about is how much busier he’s gonna suddenly be focusing on training and everything now, in all honesty it was a scary surprise to have another apprentice so soon but perhaps that just meant that he was considered a decent warrior. ‘We’ll get started immediately after the meeting! I’m sure your concerned about your previous mentors absence and whether or not i plan to stick around, but i can reassure you that I don’t plan on going on any trips anytime soon or ever. So you will actually have a chance of warrior-hood in the near future!’. Garlic Feather took a lingering moment to consider what to do first, well hunting was an important thing to get down and most likely the first thing others thought of but before one could hunt they’d have to know where their hunting and all the little details about it first. ‘We’ll start with a territory tour!’ Excited as he sounded he was feeling the exact body slam of nervousness that came with trying to seem like a decent mentor and a warrior who knew what they were doing.

Toadpaw meowed okay! Maybe she would actually get soon training done. She had been searching for warriors to take her out but she hadn't been able to find anyone to take her out yet and she was nine moons old! Far too old to not have any training, especially considering that she was better than the weaklings that made up her clanmates. Not that they knew that she wasn't like them. Just the way she liked it. And this wasn't even her first mentor reassignment, but her second! Maybe she would actually get some training done before her mentor disappeared this time, or maybe Garlicfeather wouldn't even disappear. Fritter

So... he was Mossypaw now. A faint smile appeared on the tom's maw and he purred to Eaglekit. They had different mentors, but Fadingsun and Dusklion were siblings! That meant they could do lots of training together, right? "Don't... be... jealous! I'm... sure... Fading... i-is great... too..." He shook out his pelt in an attempt to make himself more presentable before he went off to greet his mentor. He had to make a great impression. Oh, Eaglepaw had the same idea about training together! Mossypaw nodded eagerly. "Yes!" he exclaimed, this time speaking without hesitation.

But now was not the time to continue his chatter with his best friend. He flicked his tail in a "bye" motion, then made his way over to... Dusklion. Oh gosh. The warrior was so much bigger than him... surely she'd hate Mossypaw because he was so hesitant and insecure... On his short path to Dusklion, he somehow managed to stumble over his own paws. Darn it! His reputation was now ruined- everyone would hate him! Mossypaw frowned but tried to keep his head somewhat high as he arrived in front of his mentor. He awkwardly dipped his head in greeting. "H-hi.." he stammered, unsure of himself.

Wait a second. Birdsnow was announcing lionhearts?! That was so cool! Mossy's eyes widened as he watched the leader curiously. Mistyshard, Sparrowsnarl and... Dusklion! His mentor was the head lionheart? Oh gosh, he would fail so miserably at training, he'd be kicked out of the clan, everyone would despise him so much for not being clanborn! He didn't even have anyone except for Eaglepaw to talk to. Deep breaths....

"C-c-congrat...s," he managed to choke out to Dusklion, still in a half shock state.

Kestrelskies ducked her head for the traditional apprentice-mentor greeting before whispering into the apprentice's ear. "If you're up for it, I'll take you out on your territory tour as soon as we're finished. We start bright and early tomorrow."

Scowling slightly at Kestrelskies response for her name, Orchidpaw's fur prickled with irration. Attitude? Tch, she didn't have an attitude; if anything, it was her mentor who was the rude one. How dare she act like that? The nerve. It seemed like she would have to make sure her mentor stayed in check.

Standing her ground as she received a menacing glare from the one-eyed warrior, the young she-cat allowed their noses to briefly graze each other before jerking slightly away, but not far enough so she didn't hear her mentor's whisper. Territory tour? Perfect. She definitely wanted to see her domain, as she thought of it, no matter whether Kestrelskies had sass or not. "Fine." She agreed curtly before seating herself about a fox-length away from the older cat.

Returning her attention to her leader, Orchid's ears perked up at the mention of Lionhearts and promotion. She'd always wanted to gain some sort of elite rank in the clan, and now that the opportunity had presented itself, she'd certainly attempt to grab it. After all, she was an ambitious cat. Flexing her claws eagerly at the thought of becoming a Lionheart, the molly had already set her sights on the position and was determined to try her luck.

Pleasantly surprised, Stagheart stepped forward. His second apprentice! He scanned the clearing, vaguely remembering who Mumblepaw was; a calico, if he wasn't mistaken. When his eyes lay on the apprentice he stepped forward, dipping his head in a respectful greeting.

"Hi there Mumblepaw, I'm Stagheart," he meowed in his heavy drawl. The large tabby lifted his gaze back to Mumblepaw, whiskers twitching. He wanted to see how the apprentice reacted before he said anything more; would they be excited, as most apprentices were? Or frustrated by the mentor change? Either way, he calmly sat in front of him, waiting.

Each day was hell all over again. He had no purpose here. Not with her gone, Mumblepaw had barely made it to the meeting in time to hear his name. A mentor. He didn’t need one besides an assessment. This cat wouldn’t even do any “mentoring”. Papa and Flamebriar had been enough. She couldn’t do this to fang! No! She couldn’t erase their memories and all they did from his brain. Mumble stares harshly at the cat who he been “given to.” “No. I am fully capable of doing this myself, I do not need you.” Fang mumbled towards the warrior, half-blind cat standing up immediately and staring his adoptive sister in the eye.

“Birdsnow, I do not need a mentor. Fadingsun taught be battle moves, my previous mentors taught me everything else. I know what I must for an assessment, Stagheart would serve me zero purpose. I would like to request that Fadingsun since he handled my battle training. And or one of your Lionhearts give me an assessment, please.” A plea. A desperate plea toward her, but his tone did not express this. Their voice was confident, fang tried to be clear in each word. Stand their ground but not aggressively.

Had he been a more sensitive cat, Stagheart certainly would've flinched under Mumblepaw's vicious words and tone. Not to mention it was loud enough to alert practically every cat in the clearing, interrupting the joyous moments between apprentices meeting their new mentors.

But the large tom narrowed his eyes instead, undisturbed, simply observing the apprentice that was now hollering at Birdsnow. Huh. If he was truly a mentor, should he ask the apprentice to quiet down?

This don't seem like a great time to go over warrior conduct.

In the end, Birdsnow had the final say. Stagheart tilted up his chin to look at the leader, waiting to see if she'd reprimand or allow the apprentice's requests.

In any case... if I'm stuck with this attitude, it's bound to be a pawful. More than a pawful, in fact. StarClan give me the patience for that...

The young molly looked around for this “Morningmimic” but she didn’t see anyone, at least no one yet…so she sat there like a lost soul in a dark.

MorningMimic quickly spotted the apprentice and padded over.

'Ah. Youre.. MoorPaw? MolePaw? M..MoonPaw! Thats it. I'm MorningMimic.'

Her tail flicked with curiousity as her new mentor…well in this case her first ever mentor greeted her, Moonpaw dipped her head as she looked back up. “Yes…that’s me.” Besides the blatant mispronunciation of her name, she still tried to be respectful. Well, it’s not like she expected the cat to know her since well she wasn’t the most active in the clan.

(Is morning a tom, molly, nb or T^T I apologize just like lil moony I have no idea who your cat is :quivering: )

The massive cat half-expected the fact that he would be demoted. He admitted the fact that he hadn't been useful to the clan at all for the last two moons. And the only time he actually did something was cause chaos.


To be honest, he was half-glad. The rank had been offered by Beansprout, so it allowed a remain of the cat to be forgotten. And the other half... Well... Nothing. Nothingness.


An idea went up in his head some time ago, so now it would be easier to be accomplished now that he wasn't needed at high leader decisions


A plan made of zeal, wrath and blood.


He dipped his head low, acknowleging Birdstar's decision, before saying.


"I respect and accept you decision Birdstar. I won't keep hard feelings toward you, be sure of that."
