Morningpaw » (my posts will have more substance soon ^^; just posting this so i don't hold up the patrol)
Morningpaw padded up to join the others in his patrol, though his focus was elsewhere. He would've liked to catch Midnightkit after the meeting, but that'd have to wait until later.

"Hmm," Deerpaw considered this. He didn't want to get Lizardpaw in trouble, so his instinct was to wait, but on the other paw, all three of them (or Snowecho at least) would get in trouble if they didn't go at all. This was a difficult circumstance for sure. "Well..." he started, shifting his weight from paw to paw and feeling the guilt of the words he was about to say "Lizardpaw does know about the patrol, so maybe we can get started without him? I haven't spoken to him much so I don't know where he's usually hiding." Yeah, they were for sure feeling the guilt of this now. Hopefully Lizardpaw would forgive them, though, Deerpaw couldn't say for sure if he would. He hadn't spoken to him at all so they didn't know anything about his personality. "Maybe he just won't come?" They ventured a guess, "if Lizardpaw doesn't show up and Vulturefang wan't to punish you for that then I can tell him it was my idea to go without him!" Would the deputy punish the patrol leader for not taking all the apprentices even if one never showed up? Was that still the responsibility of the patrol lead? Deerpaw kind of thought it would be more the responsibility of the patrol members to show up, apprentice or not, not the lead. Hopefully Snowecho and Lizardpaw wouldn't get into too much trouble...

"No, no, it's okay... You don't have to take the blame for my actions. I deserve whatever punishment comes."
With a hard swallow, they look towards the entrance of camp... Everyone was already leaving. There wasn't much more time to wait around for an apprentice that wasn't going to show. If he could prevent Deerpaw getting in trouble, then it would be a better idea to just get started and hope that Lizardpaw ended up joining them later... So he begins towards the entrance of camp, casting a glance over his shoulder at the one that did show up. Nothing against Lizardpaw-- if they could get out of patrol, they would too, but there just wasn't any bravery to be found in this cat.
"Let's just get going. The sooner we start, the sooner we can come back."

Rose stopped by to plant a garden here.
Ruepaw Bounced "Comfey! Comfey! Ospreysplash lets go find Comfey!!!" Ruepaw missteped and face planted "ouch! Ossie! Lets Find Comfey! " Ruepaw was excited to be hunting for a herb she knew. "Cobwebs! Cobwebs! Spiders Here We Come!!!!" Ruepaw was Already to Parade off in Excitement. Her First Partol!
Quiethunter stopped the apprentice from running off with a paw. She looked about for Her Apprentice "Sunsetpaw? are you Ready for Your First patrol?" She squeaked softly...
Ruepaw Twitched her ears, turning her attention to Sunsetpaw "Hi! Hi! Sunny! Sunny Shiny! Our First Patrol Together!!! Isn't this exciting!?" Ruepaw said, bounding in the direction of her (cousin?)
OspreySplash blinked, chuckling at the apprentices enthusiasm. "Alright then, let's go, since youre so excited."
"You and uh... SunsetPaw ready to head out?" She looked to QuietHunter
After Darkfall returned to their initial parting spot, Applechatter offered the younger feline a smile before bee-lining back to ShadowClan, happily trotting the whole way. They couldn't tell whether it was adrenaline speaking or simply a good mood, but wow, did they have a lot of energy all of sudden! They could almost go for another run... But alas, they'd already arrived and Vulturefang was just around the corner. Humming, Applechatter flicked their tail in greeting. "All's good at Herondive Hollow; Border's been marked, and no ThunderClanner was spotted along the way. Though Darkfall was a pleasure to work with, Grapevine was a no-show, unfortunately."
Finally it was time to return... Though the hunt went better than they were expecting, stepping paw into the wilderness with intention of a successful haul was nerve-wracking. Nonetheless, once he and Deerpaw retrieve the prey they had buried, the pace in which he returns to camp is a bit quick. A trot eager to return to the safety of Shadowclan. Passing through the entrance, a silent sigh of relief forces their body to relax and after placing the three mice dangling from their jaw amongst the fresh-kill pile, they turn to speak to Deerpaw.
"I'll go ahead and report to Vulturefang... You're welcome to come along but... Don't feel as though you have to. Y-You did well today... Thank you for putting up with me."
A polite bow of their head and he's off to find the deputy, pawsteps dragging along the dirt as he makes some attempt to calm their nerves before having to report to him... Approaching warily, his tail flicks in greeting before he begins to speak.
"H-Hunting patrol was successful... We caught five mice. Deerpaw did very, very well... Shadow's Break was quiet otherwise..." A gulp, anxious gaze directed elsewhere as they continue. "Ah, um... H-However... Deerpaw and I did complete our patrol without Lizardpaw... I-I'm not sure where the young one has gone but... I'm sorry. We didn't want to return late."

Deerpaw followed behind Snowecho closely, trying to stay no more than a tail's length away at all times. Though Shadows Break was relatively quiet aside from the few rodents they caught, Deerpaw couldn't shake the feeling that the warrior looked to be running away from something almost. 'They're so odd...' he mused to himself, 'Snowecho's clearly a very good warrior but they have almost no confidence to speak of... I wonder why that is? He almost seems constantly ashamed of everything he does if I'm reading his body language correctly, but that's so weird! What reason does he have to be ashamed?'
Placing the two mice he was carrying onto the fresh-kill pile after the warrior, Deerpaw decided they wanted to tag along when he made the report. "Lizardpaw didn't ever show up, though, so it's not like we left him out in the territory to fend for himself," he added, just so the deputy wouldn't think the two had lost their would-be-partner out in the woods or something - he had a feeling that would get them in more trouble than just not taking him.
Dawnstar glanced around, tongue darting out to lick at her nose and muzzle trying to rid herself of the linger tangy taste in her mouth. "Elmshadow, we finished the patrol and dropped off your herbs in the storage," Dawnstar reported once she found the tom. Unless he had something important to say, the leader made to walk off towards the prey pile needing something to eat.

Emerald eyes bright with a mix of confusion, alarm, and sadness, Starrypaw came to a halt in front of Vulturefang. The sun had dipped lower on the horizon, giving off a fiery orange glow that reminded Starrypaw how late it was. Maybe she really had gotten distracted and both Hawkbite and Sagerunner had gone on without her. "Patrol... all done." She squeaked after a moment, her usually chipper mood altogether nonexistent in this moment. Starrypaw had no idea if she was the one who'd wandered away from her patrolmates, or if they'd not noticed and left her behind at the border, but whatever the case, it was done now, no?

Watching Applechatter approach, Vulturefang dipped his head in a small greetings. Ragged ears twitching at the news, he gave a satisfied huff " Glad to here it." he approved " I owe you two big time." Dismissing the warrior with a wave of his tail, he added; " No need to worry about Grapevine, I'll figure it out. " truth be told he hadn't seen that cat in some time... Hopefully they hadn't keeled over or something...

Seeing the jittery warrior approach with Deerpaw, the massive tom turned to meet them " God damn, five mice? That's pretty good I'll give ya that much. " hearing the other tidbits of the report, he nodded thoughtfully. " Huh, well don't stress about it, I'm sure he's fine." Dismissing the Lizardpaw issue, the deputy shooed them off with his bushy tail. " Alright, the two of you are free to go. "
(ALSO, to save the both of you from extra stress, not all of the cats have to show up to report. Typically it's only the patrol leader LMAO )

Blinking in surprise as the little apprentice scurried back, Vulturefang looked at the entrance to camp. Where the hell were the other two? Scowling darkly, he returned his eyes back to Starrypaw. " Good work kid, " he complimented, although quite a few questions still reminded. " Did the other guys leave you out there alone? Or they still patrolling? " raising a brow, the burly cat shook his head. " Y'know what? Forget I asked. I'll have a word with them whenever I see em around. You're dismissed."

Padding into the camp, the black and white cats bi-colored eyes find the deputy. Giving a swift yet direct report, nothing bad had happened. Riverclan scent was faint but that could be fixed by a patrol coming later that day. “Nothing of issue. Patrol, fine.” Mewing to the deputy before breaking off in search of two certain cats. No use staying when haunt’s job was over with. Haunt would much rather spend time with Hazehound and Clearsky
Ahh, he knew this joker would be one of the first ones to arrive back. Grinning ear to ear he let the other approach. " Fantastic, pal." he commented after Haunt reported back. " Remind me to throw you on more patrols in the future," this was a partial joke. While Haunt was reliable he wasn't keen on burning the oaf out. Haunt was far to useful for that. " Anyway, you really tie up the loose ends of this place. Keep up the good work." Waving Houndhunter away with a swish of his tail, Vulturefang continued whatever he was doing before.

The black and white enforcer padded back through the camp entrance, her chin up and her black tail erect behind her. She moved first to the freshkill pile to drop her jay, toad, and frogs, assuming her daughter would do the same for her frog and mouse, then padded bouncily to the deputy. "Hiya! Miss me yet? We got you your prey. There was plenty of hunting to be hunted, Shadepaw got her fair share. Aspencry, though, showed up late then disappeared altogether again. Got nothing as far as I could tell." The warrior had made it onto her short list of faces to be remembered but she figured she'd bring it up to the deputy as well if he wanted to do anything about it. "Good luck, mister deputy!"
