"His spirit left his body and went to StarClan, so he will no longer be here." Kestrelflame added to Frizzlekit, before her pale yellow eyes turned to Buckstar for a moment. Drowned. Why was he even by the water in the cold? Still, the young warrior kept her mouth shut on the matter.

Fizzlekit looked at her and began to calm down. "All cats starclan go?", he asked. What he was asking was do all cats go to starclan. He kept as quiet as he can, since everyone seemed to being giving the dead warrior a bit of silence. He didn't want to be disrespectful. He felt a bit saddened for the dead warrior. Now he have nobody to talk with that he knew. "Fizzle wishes cat well.", Fizzlekit added.

Falconpaw bowed her head in reverence, a sharp pang of sympathy swelling in her chest, eyes averted.

His mannerisms was odd but the kit was normal enough to communicate with as far as Kestrelflame was concerned. Then again, she didn't know kits well. "The good ones," She answered, noting that he was calming. Kits where strange, the calico wasn't sure why other mollies, or toms for that matter, seemed to want them so soon. They required you to speak oddly to them, in simple boring words. "Bad ones go to the Dark Forest.... but he won't." Kestrelflame added to the tom kit. While she had never personally known the warrior, he was never involved with the Dark forest when she was. So, she assumed he was going to StarClan as Buckstar had said.

The warrior was lurking outside of the camp, enjoying the peace and quiet. It took him a few minutes to realize that a meeting had been called to order, so by the time he entered camp Buckstar had already addressed the dead body. Then the gray tom's stomach turned as his gaze rested on what was in fact the body of Gravelblaze. Drowned? He winced at the memory of him falling into the creek, knowing if Darkfire hadn't saved him, that could be him.

Honeypool took one glance at the body, then evaded her gaze in disgust. Any other feline would've mistaken the action for fear. "Go if you wish, Tidepaw," she allowed her apprentice, hearing the young feline address their leader. Sometimes, she wondered why the eager tomcat was her responsibility. Surely, there must've been better options for him. She planned on staying back. Standing around with a bunch of pitiful, whimpering cats would be too much for her to bear.

Lionpaw was too tired to deal with this, really. Not physically tired, but... emotionally. Death didn't scare him anymore, not unless he was the one doing the killing. The stars existed in the sky for a reason—cats were meant to die, and drowning wasn't the worst way to go. While the living panicked, the dead rejoiced. Why didn't they tone down the misery a bit? It wasn't all that necessary.

‘Okay, thanks’ Rainyfur replied, helping Whitetail to her paws and picking up Hailkit.

GoslingKit was laying down, enjoying her mouse, "Huh? Oh, poor guy." She mewed, not really understanding what was going on.

DawnHeart frowned, they found their way to GraveBlaze and touched his lifeless with their nose. They lifted their head and raised their voice, "BuckStar, I would like to help!" The beige cat didn't know what else to do, they probably looked like an idiot!

Shuffling out of the way of the entrance to the den, he quickly blinked to rid the tiredness from his eyes before padding drowsily over to the fresh kill pile, drooped eyes searching for something that would fill him up. He didn't want to take the best possible piece of prey, oh stars no - he would leave those for the queens, elders, and kits. He was simply just looking for something that would quiet his rumbling stomach. A soft smile grew on his maw as he spotted a good sized vole, which was previously hidden from view by a large thrush. Dipping his head, he gingerly picked it up and started to make his way back to the den, planning on eating in his warm nest. The lynx-point tom was almost there when he felt something - well, someone - bump into him. Blue eyes flitted over to the cat who had run into him, and he was surprised to see Dawnheart, an obviously blind cat. The sight of the empty eyesockets was quite unnerving, but it didnt bother him as much as it used to. Dipping his head lightly in a gesture that would undoubtedly go unnoticed by the blind cat, he gently responded, ¨Goodness, its quite alright. I guess it is partly my fault, as i didnt notice you coming towards me. My apologies, Dawnheart¨ he politely mewed, ¨I was simply on my way back to my nest to eat, would you care to join me?¨ He briefly wondered whether they would take the offer as something vaguely romantic, but Dawnheart seemed to have a good head on their shoulders. They should be able to understand the meanings behind his words.

"Uh, sure. I was going to go get something anyway!" They mewed not sure if they were sharing or not. "I'll go get a mouse for me." They awkwardly padded over to the Fresh kill and grabbed whatever they grabbed first. They walked back to EveningMist, smiled and slowly walked into the den, they waited to hear the rustling of bracken or whatever the den was made of. DawnHeart laid down what felt like rabbit and got comfortable.

High Rank Announcement [#hrannouncement]

Buckstar's head snapped up as Beetlepaw suddenly lashed out at Cowtail and fled the camp. A low growl rumbled in his throat as he watched the apprentice vanish. "No one go after him. I'll deal with him when he comes back."

He hopped down from his spot on the branch and approached Cowtail [ @~Fox~ ]. Gingerly he pressed one paw to deep cut across her face, unsure of what else to do. "Honeypool [ @bmkmb ], Kestrelflame [ @Fuzzy ]! Can you two bring her to Rainywhisker?" StarClan, he couldn't even bring himself to sound worried. By this point he was just exhausted.

Spotclaw looked at Beetlepaw in shock, why would they do that? "But what if he never comes back?" Spotclaw called to Buckstar "What if Beetlepaw decides never to come back? What do we do then?" she asked
