Mushroompaw(50/100)


Mushroompaw snapped his head over to Wolfpaw, his fur bristling. 'I saw....Her dead body against a tree...I just wanted to practice hunting- Oh Starclan why! The young tom had tears pouring down his face, dripping onto the ground below. Oh, why? Why did it have to be him that found the body? Mushroompaw heard Redhawk tell Silverpaw something before he started to lose his vision. Nightgaze was screaming about Fawnpaw, oh gosh. 'Oh Starclan- was all he signed before passing out onto the ground, still trembling.

.. Well, that was useful. "A tree" with no location details. Wolfpaw sighed as Mushroompaw fainted. "Might as well bring one of them out to treat him." He didn't think moving Mushroompaw was the best idea, but what did he know. Wolfpaw flickered his gaze to Silverpaw before resting it on Redhawk and Nightgaze. "We can try tracking his scent through the territory, see if it brings us to Fawnpaw?"

Okay well Mushroompaw was down. "On ss-second thought, Silverpaw, go get the medicine cats." She didn't want to try moving the apprentice and they needed to go scout the territory for Fawnpaw. She gave a nod to Wolfpaw, then looked at Nightgaze. "I understand you're g-grieving, Nightgaze. But I need you t-to pull yourself together. We have t-to find her." Red was surprised by the sturdy way her words came out.

"Good idea. Let's go now, I don't want t-to risk predator's finding her body. If we g-get there and it's t-trouble, we will retreat," a glance at Nightgaze to make sure she understood, "and get back up to d-deal with it." With that she gave a last look at the apprentice before turning and bounding out towards the territory, jaws parted to draw in the scent of Mushroompaw's trail.

long-furred, oriental-shaped, gray-and-orange calico molly with blue eyes; torn right ear

The pastel calico hadn’t been far from the medicine den when she keenly spotted Mushroompaw bursting in without warning, his signs quick and abrupt as confusion dawned at the medicine cat apprentice. She didn’t know much about how signing worked, so overhearing warriors suddenly flooding the troubled apprentice made her fuel into action as her hackles raised on end. Fawnpaw was apparently dead, from what she overheard from the crowd itself. Her heart sank tremendously at the sudden news, but brief suspicion was quelling into her mind as the calico listened entirely for what may have been the initial cause of death towards this particular incident. Apparently her body was found by a tree? Not enough information to warrant what may have happened, but it would help them figure out what could’ve caused Fawnpaw to go into this very fate in the first place. Nightgaze’s outburst wasn’t doing anything but further worsening the grueling situation, but she couldn’t take her own word into it. Fawnpaw was her apprentice, and she needed time to quell her grief before she could do anything else to help the situation.

Before even thinking about exiting the sharp-smelling den, the calico made sure to grab a couple pieces of chamomile within the storage before strutting out into the crowded clearing, heading towards the still form of Mushroompaw first to give him the herb. Her brows creased as she noted his fallen state, kneading down towards him to carefully examine his state. She knew that all too well. There wouldn’t be much for her to do other than hope for him to eventually wake up and take the herb that she was hoping to give to him. Placing the white flower down right beside herself, she carefully began to use her body weight to try to lift the tom-cat up so she could carry him into the warmer crevices of the medicine den. Being out her in the cold was just going to worsen the situation. Quietly, she eyed her other clan-mates that were going to try to solve this gruesome mystery once and for all. Hopefully Fawnpaw’s death wasn’t anything far too treacherous. They needed to forge as much strength as they could without risking anything horrible happening. “I’m… going to… bring him… to the… medicine den… please… try to… figure out… what happened… as soon… as possible… we don’t… want to… risk the… same thing… happening… again. “ Her words were brief, but she didn’t want to waste time, only carefully taking the unconscious feline to the medicine den so that he can wake up and further answer any questions from there.

Oh great! It seemed like all her screaming was futile. Mushroompaw's fainting hadn't done any good; now all they had to go on was Fawnpaw's body against a tree. Goddammit, how did all this happen?! Giving a miniscule flick of her ear as Wolfpaw started talking, she gave a small, sombre nod. Tracking was an idea, though it would certainly be hard and probably fruitless, seeing that Thunderclan territory was gigantic, but it was worth a shot.

Watery eyes turned to Redhawk as she spoke. She found no comfort in her words, but she did accept that she did have to regain control if she was to find her apprentice. "O-ok.." She croaked, her voice hollow, contrary to Redhawk's strong words. Giving another glum nod at the hornet's instructions, she certainly felt that the other she-cat didn't trust her with following orders, and right she was; she'd get Fawnpaw's body no matter what; they could retreat, but she wouldn't.

Sniffling ever so slightly, she unsteadily sprinted after Redhawk, determined to keep up despite her unstable condition, but most of all, she was determined to find Fawn. She had to. Mabye, there was still the slimest chance she was alive, and she'd do her best to save her. She promised. 'I'm coming, Fawnpaw...'

Mantiskit had been grooming herself in the clearing, as it was slightly warmer than it usually was nowdays in an attempt to get her fur, which most cats would consider was more than good enough perfect, as only a few strands were sticking out, but she was a perfectionist so even one strand was too much to her, meaning that she could seem vain if you didn't know her very well, and most of her clanmates didn't know her very well. Then she saw Mushroompaw suddenly burst into camp. Mismatched eyes wide open in suprise, the five moon old kit watched as the apprentice signed that Fawnpaw, who she remembered was one of the other apprentices had fainted. If she remembered correctly and even Mantiskit had to admit that it would be very unlikely for her not to remember correctly Mushroompaw was mute. She understood and could use sign language because she had wanted to learn it in order to more easily communicate with mute or deaf cats so she had learned it as sign language wasn't against the rules nor dangerous. In fact it was very useful and she enjoyed knowing anything that was useful because the more useful things you knew the better. Hint useful. Sometimes knowing something that most cats didn't know could be utterly miserable if it wasn't useful at all and Mantiskit couldn't be more aware of that terrible but most certainly true fact. Mushroompaw then passed out, probably by supruse. Mantiskit wasn't sure what she should do. The adults had this handled and she doubted that they would want a mere kit trying to help. After all she was only five moons old. Just a infant. And she knew it. @ChaosBringer. (Open)

Springpaw collected the fallen apprentice, and they were off. Wolfpaw's only response to Redhawk was a brief nod, before he followed the duo out of camp.

Mushroompaw's trail, fortunately, was still decently fresh. Following it shouldn't be too much of a hassle.

Alpinekit heard of Fawnpaw a few times. She was found outside the Clan camp at two weeks old.

She mewed out of confusion, padding off to the big rock. Alpinekit climbed onto the rock but, she lost her footing and fell onto the hard ground. Thump!

Mousepaw had grabbed the kit by the scruff and carried her to more even ground are you ok there little one? Mousepaw asked.

[Katiethewolfchild]

Seeing the other kit fall Mantiskit was about to check if Alpinekit was okay when she saw Mousepaw grab Alpinekit by the scruff. Following Mousepaw, when she put the other kit down on ground that was smoother and more even Mantiskit meowed Awphinekit awe you awwight? She winced at the sound of her voice but making sure that Alpinekit was alright was more important than everything being perfect at the moment. @TheRadioDemon @Highsnow of Matterhorn
