The place was still not quite as familiar to her as their ancient moors had once been, but she would be lying if she did not admit the fields of flowers didn't provide a colorful, pleasant mood to an already wonderful, self imposed patrol. Why she had allowed herself the time to sit and mope, stewing in her own misery was beyond her. Most cats had lost someone in their lives, she was no different to the rest of them. It was how you carried on that made the difference, and she would make sure she carried on with her eternal duty to her clan well fulfilled.
As she approached the edge of WindClan's territory, a scent reached her. Carried over by the breeze. Hackles instantly raising themselves in alertness and a readiness to battle, the spotted warrior shook herself, unwilling to enter the situation in a tiff. She was better than this. Anger was no way to approach an impending fight. And it was always polite to give one warning to any outsider within their territory. Not every cat was blessed with the knowledge of the clans and the laws that they abided by. And some were just too hare-brained to realize the copious scents of cats in the air clearly signaling the area's claim having been made.
Tail twitching, Dapplebreeze made her way towards the scent, carrying herself in a hunter's crouch downwind, ensuring the breeze worked with her to mask her scent until the very last minute. It was here that she saw her. A... molly. Obviously pregnant, by the looks of it, and far enough past the scent markers to be intruding. Perhaps the hormones had made the queen reckless? StarClan knew she herself had gotten a bit restless herself during her two previous pregnancies. Pregnant or not, however, an intruder was an intruder, and the older warrior had no intention to underestimate this feline... or give her any sort of special treatment. One warning was all they would get. Anything further would be settled with teeth and claws.
"It seems to me you are rather far from home, darling," the warrior mewed pleasantly, a demure smile upon her lips that didn't quite reach the cold gleam in her eyes. "I'm afraid you have wandered into WindClan's territory, and we have no room for outsiders. Best you be going now. Wouldn't want to be forced for things to get violent, would we? I would be more than pleased to escort you to the outskirts myself if you are lost," Dapplebreeze continued, whiskers twitching.
Despite the amicableness of her words, there was no friendliness to her tone. No warmth. Only a polite, business like, brisk tone. A clear indicator of a cat who was not here to waste time. Even her offer to escort the queen out had it's reasoning behind it. There was no way she would be leaving the molly to her own devices in WindClan's lands, after all.

She definitely enjoyed getting the chance to explore it and everything being new. There was a certain excitement to it.
Moorpaw paused when her mentor tensed up. Immediately, she lifted her nose to sniff the air, and to actually pay attention to the changes.
The scent of an outsider finally registered in her brain and her eyes darted to her mentor for direction on how to go forward. When the patch coloured warrior forced herself to calm down and approached in a more peaceful fashion, she followed suit. She stepped to the side to avoid walking into Dapplebreeze, and to get a better look at the intruder.
She really hoped the queen chose the easy way. She wasn't keen on the idea of beating up a pregnant lady.
But Dapplebreeze seemed to have a handle on the situation, and so would remain as back up in case things turned sour.

The kittypet quickly began to leave. "I overheard your conversation, so gathered all the moss I could find in an attempt to help. Hope you don't mind!" She mewed as she left.

Re: WindClan Territory
| Dapplebreeze |
Keeping her face carefully pleasant as the outsider lumped the moss she had been gathering before them, Dapplebreeze would be lying if she didn't admit to have been... confused. Why would an outsider have come into well marked land to "help" by gathering their own moss? It was... peculiar to say the least, and rather pointless as far as she was concerned. There were plenty of WindClan cats available to gather the moss, none of which would be breaking the code or getting in danger for doing so. Settling on assuming the feline was perhaps more so a harmless queen with a slight, adventurous streak in her, she remained quiet. There was no need to further encourage her and give her the idea she was welcome here for such a thing.
Dainty paws followed after the molly, a small twitch of her tail silently signaling her apprentice to follow. Close as they were to the border, Dapplebreeze was very much a paws on individual. She would rather ensure the feline was well gone before she let down her guard. Silently, the patched former queen stared at the horizon, watching in silence until well after the other had left, finally satisfied of a job well done. With a smile, she turned to her apprentice, an appreciative look gleaming in her eye, the warmth that she'd lost during the encounter well returned by now.
"Excellent work, darling. It would have been far too easy to have made a ruckus out of that, and potentially risk injuring many a cat in a battle that needn't had happened in the first place. It is always best to be... polite. Diplomatic, if you will. Provide a warning to the intruder so they can leave of their own accord. Just remember..." she paused, her voice growing serious once more, if only for a moment. "Leave your warning at just one. Multiple warnings are pointless, and will diminish the strength and conviction with each subsequent one. Mercy is giving them a chance. It moves to ignorance when that chance is opened to them trampling over us."
Standing up, the warrior stretched, her tail giving a lazy sway in the breeze. Turning to the moss, she sniffed. It would be a shame to leave materials that could be useful to all cats in the clan to dry out and rot here. If only they had gotten here before the stranger could have dragged her claws through so much of it. They would have to cut their patrol short to bring this back to camp. Still, a good educational moment for her dearest kit... erm, apprentice, so she couldn't fully complain, she supposed.
Expectant, blue hues on the fawn tabby, Dapplebreeze purred in mild amusement. "Well... I suppose no harm in bringing this with us now that we know the stranger is gone, is there? Perhaps inform Fallownose of this... intruder. I can scent others in the area as well. We might have to keep vigilant. Wouldn't want another situation to arise like the Dull Simpleton's from before, thinking they could take our land," the warrior mewed before dipping her head, maw filling with half the moss the outsider had shredded before leading the way back to camp.

It didn't take long for the black apprentice to find what she was looking for. The bushes were lined with cobwebs, it was really the only place spiders could make them so it was only logical. Slatepaw grabbed a stick nearby and with some not-so-precise maneuvers, she gathered some cobwebs at the end.
It would take a few minutes to do this. But in the end, she would have gathered two decently sized cobwebs to bring back. She was quick to return to their departing spot and awaited Aspenstrike. Hopefully they had good luck too!

Aspenstrike smiled in response to the chipper apprentice's actions, purring softly as Slatepaw departed. The former leader then ducked her head, and recalled Cowtuft's instructions in an attempt to bring the right herbs home. Star shaped, blue and pink. Locating some flowers that matched the description, she plucked three, then turned to meet Slatepaw again. "Good job!" She purred, then looked around for moss. "I think we have some time to spare for moss, what do you think?" Her yellow eyes surveyed the ground, mostly rocks, for any moss that they could take home to Cowtuft.

Re: WindClan Territory
Stick in mouth, Slatepaw gave the warrior a smile as she returned with her herbs. "Yay!" She spoke with a muffled voice, turning towards a few rocks Aspenstrike was talking about. She padded along after giving the warrior a nod. "I think we have some time! You can ma- maybe put it on my back," She suggested as they padded along. Slatepaw wasn't having much luck, but perhaps Aspenstrike was?

Re: WindClan Territory
Goldenpaw »
At Deadmoon's question, he inwardly grimaced. It wasn't going well, obviously, but he didn't want to volunteer that information. Instead, he said, "It's alright. I couldn't find my mentor anywhere in camp, so I was"—he hesitated a moment, coming up with an excuse—"learning the territory."
Maybe he shouldn't have just up and admitted to having been alone, but what good would it have done to lie? Besides, it wasn't like he was going to die if he went out of camp by himself. Honestly, ever since he'd heard about that "no apprentices out of camp" rule, he always knew he would disregard it eventually. He'd been out by himself before! And he even caught prey! (Denying the fact that he'd had help with that.) Without Brackenheart around to guide him, he had to take his training into his own two paws.
All that aside, it wasn't like he was about to risk a warrior's safety by taking them out of camp with him. Every mentor he'd had seemed to disappear or die, and he wasn't about to let that happen to Pignut—even if he was a little absent. It seemed like just being his mentor was enough to cause them tragedy. He wasn't quite sure on the status of this apparent curse on him, but maybe he should get someone else's opinion on it soon.

Re: WindClan Territory
The wind whispered through the tall grasses, filling Swiftheart's ears with rustling. This was good, it would distract his prey so that it wouldn't be focusing on sound. One paw-step at a time, the sandy tabby crawled closer to the creature, its scent filling his nostrils and washing over his tongue. There, it should be right in front of him. he pricked his ears, held his breath, listening to make sure it was still there. Nothing, not even a breath.
Holding in his sigh, the sandy tabby was starting to leave in search of another mouse when a slight scuffle sounded ahead of him, so quiet he almost missed it. Without hesitation, he crushed through the tall stems, claws outstretched and probing for the kill. The grey rodent scrambled, he flung out a paw and tossed it onto its side, stunning it. Swiftheart place a paw an the panicked prey's side, bit down delivering a swift death. "Thank you StarClan, for this prey." He buried it, went to find more food for his clan.

Aspenstrike glanced up at the sky. Okay. No pressure, they still had time for everything. She was slightly tired from the border patrol she was assigned to earlier, but not so tired that she missed the small patch of moss clinging to the side of a larger, shaded rock. Gently scraping and peeling until she had most of it gathered, she glanced back at the apprentice as Slatepaw offered. Rolling it as tightly as she could, the molly nodded, mouth too full to respond, and unrolled it slightly so it would drape over State's back more comfortably. "Thanks, wanna head back now?" She mumbled around the moss with a smile
( @SuspiciousMindz - will report in later today!! good job and tysm for the reminder )

Re: WindClan Territory
An ex-queen kittypet was quietly sat at the edge of the territory, a sullen and plaintive look on her face. Little did anyone know, but this was Charlie, and her litter of 5 kits had been murdered ruthlessly by a cruel loner called William. She had sat in front of some graves that were perfectly out of the territory. She had tears rolling down her face, and was lamenting the death of her precious kits- Gabriel, Susie, Fritz, Jeremy and Cassidy.

Re: WindClan Territory
(Not a problem!) @ ameko
Ok, so Goldenpaw was totally out of camp without a mentor. He hadn't gotten into any trouble, thank goodness, but this also meant Deadmoon should probably keep an eye on him and make sure he didn't go find trouble. But she also didn't want to go back to camp, because camp was boring and she'd only just come out for some fresh air and maybe a bit of hunting. So, tilting her head a bit to the side as she considered, she eventually decided upon Well, as long as we're out here, we might as well do something. Has your mentor she hadn't a clue in the world who that might be done any hunting with you?
As much as she could probably use some fighting practice herself, it was always rather embarrassing to try and teach an apprentice something one wasn't the most confident in, and she'd probably try and find another warrior to spar with before she gave anything beyond basic lessons. Hunting though, that she could do with no issue. Her stalking abilities in particular were good, although she was willing to chase rabbits around helter skelter if absolutely necessary. Hopefully Goldenpaw would be agreeable to a bit of hunting. She doubted he would resist, seeing as the alternative involved going right back to camp and maybe to Twilightstar.

Re: WindClan Territory
Goldenpaw »
He'd been preparing himself for a real uncomfortable trip back to camp, so Deadmoon's suggestion had relief washing over him. At least he'd be able to learn something with someone else here. "My current mentor," he started, annoyance grating his tone, "hasn't done anything with me. I did a bit of hunting with my first one, though."
Though he was more interested in fighting, he wasn't about to turn down an invitation to actually do something out of camp. "I could use some practice." He'd hunted successfully a few times, but he wasn't real confident in his abilities (much as he liked to pretend he was). It was about time he got some formal training on it!
