She had promised herself never to love again and... was she breaking her own rule. No matter, it could never work, no they were in different clans although the tension was high as glazepaw shook his head she gave the slightest schoolgirl like giggle, although almost immediately as the sound escaped her maw. She swiped her tail over her face. As she shook her head the slightest bit, she didn’t realize where she was drifting to as she slowly nuzzled his cheek in return before tearing away and looking back at the sunrise the frigid air sweeping through the hollow, “It’s fine...” she meowed in a shy voice before pulling away, and what could she say, this might be the exception for her rule...

Glazepaw had never been in love, so he didn't know how to act or how to recognize it. But he knew he was in love with Moonpaw. They were only apprentices, but it felt so real... In that moment, he decided. He was going to transfer to ShadowClan, as soon as he finished his training. He would only have to wait a couple more moons. Then they could be together! But he couldn't tell Moonpaw--he didn't want her to worry or try to talk him out of it. He turned his mismatched eyes, wide with surprise, to her when she nuzzled him back. That meant... "O-okay!" he squeaked out, his voice breaking. He froze up, an idiotic, surprised look on his face. What was he supposed to do now? They had basically just confessed that they like liked each other. Glazepaw had never had anyone reciprocate feelings for him. Heck, he'd never even had a real crush before. He just stared at her, his mouth slightly open and his eyes wide. He was excited, nervous, and shocked at this turn of events. He most definitely looked like a mousebrain right now, but he didn't care. He was here with Moonpaw, and she liked him back!

Storm knew her Greencough would get worse if she didn't take any medicine, but she wanted the kits and apprentices to live above all else, even above her own life. Stormcloud fell into a coughing fit again, and when she stopped, her body was like a rock, except for her ragged breathing.

Stormcloud had been sick for a while now, it was just getting worse. She could barely stand, and if she didn't get food she probably wouldn't be walking any time soon. She lifted her head weakly, her eyes clouded over with weakness and innervation. If someone could get her a piece of food and have a conversation with her, that would be all she needed.

Fire-eye walked among the sick cats, a large vole hanging from his jaw. He had volunteered to take the prey to them, but he was still wary of coming too close—he could see what the sickness did to you, and, if he didn’t feel he had a duty to his clanmates, would have tried to avoid it at all costs. He looked around, glancing at each of the cats, until his gaze fell on a ShadowClan warrior. Stormcloud, he thought her name was. He padded over to her and set down the vole.

“Stormcloud?” he asked, keeping his voice low. She looked bad, really bad, and he wished he could do more to help her. “I brought you some prey, here.” He nudged the vole towards her.

her heart was racing, as the molly looked at the Tom a look of nervous excitement shining in her eyes as the rosy gaze began shifting to an Orange she knew that this would be it as Glazepaw squeaked out a response the weight of what she had just done set in, her anxiety, as she began to shake once again a feeling she had evaded for so long, she looked at him with a smile she was never the flirty type it wasn’t in her nature and neither was showing her emotions, she had so much to lose but she would risk it all as the light swept over the hollow a look of dismay covered her face “We have to go...” she meowed her voice shook “Meet again, 3 days?” she meowed hopefully yes it was a lot sooner then their past meetings but she didn’t want to wait any longer she was only an apprentice but but she knew that Glazepaw would be by her side forever.

It was quite a chilly day, and the cold winds blowing through just added to the chill. The recent snow had melted, though that didn't help the fact that it was, well, cold. A young she-cat was picking her way delicately among the sand, pausing every few seconds to shake the sand from her paws. She sighed and shook her head, having been sent to hunt a few things by her mentor. Grumbling under her breath, Willowpaw moved forward, her whole body shivering from the cold. She was about to give up, it was late in the afternoon and all she wanted was to go back to camp and rest. She... She couldn't do it! She knew it! She wasn't fit for apprentice training. She let out a light sob, her paw pads aching and her tail dropping in exhaustion. Unaware of a tom watching from nearby, she sat down, feeling frustrated and stressed, and she just wanted to. go. home.

Finally finding the strength to move, he looked at her and nodded quickly. "Sure! Yeah, I'd love that!" he insisted. He stood up hesitantly. He could tell that neither of them wanted to leave, but he was glad to be able to see her again so soon. He was normally pretty good at hiding his emotions, but he was unable to hide the excitement that washed over him. He quickly nuzzled her cheek one last time before turning around, pelt burning, and beginning on his way towards SkyClan. He paused when he was halfway to the trees and cast one last smile over his shoulder, his mismatched eyes gleaming. Today is going to be a good day.

as a smile crosses her face, she looked on at glazepaw happily. This would be it for a little while, with a kind nod she turned into to the sunset and started for the forest ahead of her with a smile on her maw she did her best to keep her eyes open as her ragdoll legs bounded through the trees and snow covered earth

It was in the middle of the morning, and the chill in the air was frigid with the breeze added to it, the freezing waves crashed against the shore. A young she-cat was picking her way delicately among the sandy terrian, pausing every few pawsteps to shake the gritty granules from her toes, a slight frown of annoyance on her face. Why did her mentor instruct her to hunt here of all places? Sure, it was open to all the Clans, so Luckypaw didn't have to worry about her fur getting clawed off, but surely a hunting trip wasn't worth this? She gazed at her short but thick pelt, noticing grains of sand all over her fur, letting out a sigh, it sure was going to take a while to groom that all out. She glanced around, searching for prey. She saw a small mouse suddenly dart past her, and she shot after it, yowling loudly as she got into the chase. She leaped for the mouse, but was a second too late, causing her to crash onto the sand with a grunt. She lay there a moment, winded, before she slowly picked herself up into a sitting position, delicately shaking her two forepaws one by one, making sure nothing was broken. Once she was satisfied she heaved herself to her paws, glancing around again. Planning to just give up, Luckypaw started to head back to camp, her ears pinned back and tail dropping sadly, she was certain her mentor would yell at her, but what could she do? "I'm just not cut out to be an apprentice," she mewed quietly to herself sadly. She closed her eyes as she continued walking, picking up her pace. "I'll never be a warrior now." as she passed a large bunch of rocks, she heard a loud scuffling from the other side, and she opened her eyes, curious when she saw a tail. She lightly leaped onto the top of the rocks a little unsteadily, but she managed to balance on them. She gazed down at the large, sandy coloured tom there, whom was busy doing something with a bunch of pretty rocks. Collecting them, perhaps? She blinked slowly as she watched.

Copperleap didn’t exactly know why he was here. At first it started out as a supposed to be hunting practice, or at least try and be useful to his clan by hunting, but then he got distracted because he had the knack for losing his attentive nature - it was always unintentionally. Then again, Copperleap was never really a spirit that could be locked down. Clan life was great and all, but what about the big world out there? There ought to be something beyond the trees, right? What happened if he wanted to journey to the sun? Look for a new life? Starclan knew he had so many questions but hardly any answers for them. It made him sad to know he couldn’t venture too far because some of his friends usually would taunt him and belittle him for even having a thought of going beyond all they knew. Copperleap assumed they all were cowards, but all he wanted was to explore, satiate his curiosity. Though, didn’t curiosity kill the cat?

The thought of hunting left his mind quite easily once he was focused on other matters. He made his way far from his clan without even knowing, but the aesthetic view of the world around him made him want to explore and get his bearings. He ended up at the seastones, his tail swishing behind him a little quickly since he emitted an excited aura from being here. First, Copperleap ran around enjoying the scenery of the place, then it tired him out so he started playing around with a few of the shiny rocks. He nosed a couple of his favorite rocks in one place, admiring them mentally. “You’d never find rocks like these in skyclan.” He muttered with a small huff. He lowered his first half to the ground, his rump and tail sticking up playfully as he continued to stare at the rocks in a blithe manner. “I wonder if I can bring you back with me...the question is how will I bring you back with me...” Copperleap sighed. It almost seemed impossible to bring all these rocks back home. It caused the tom to observe softly but not fully since his attention was directed to a new noise of disturbance. From the corner of his eye, he thought he seen a figure watching him, but Copperleap didn’t feel threatened, instead he was rather...playful. Copperleap kept his cool though because he didn’t want the new company to think he noticed them, but as soon as he felt it was a good time, he started running around happily again, his thick pelt felt one with the wind as it blowed through his pelt and made him slightly cold but he was exuberant so while running, he made his surprise debut by running towards the other cat’s ‘hiding spot’. His miscalcuted his speed when he ran towards the other cat, but he skidded to a stop before he did run them over, instead he stopped just in time as their noses was inches away from each other. From this distance, he obviously could tell the cat was a Molly, and if cats could blush, he’d be red all over from embarrassment. “...Hi, there!” He greeted with a blink of his eyes.

As the tom started to run towards her, Luckypaw's hazel orbs widened, and her head shrunk back into her neck a bit in surprise when his nose appeared in her face. She backed up a bit on the rocks, and the rocks slipped underneath her paws slightly, so she shifted her position so she was comfortable once again. She blinked at him at his sudden hello, and she felt a smile appear on her maw. "Hello...," she murmured softly, lightly leaping down onto the sand beside the tom. "I'm Luckypaw," she mewed. Her ears twitched with amusement as she gazed at the pretty rocks he had been eyeing. He had apparently been trying to find a way to take them back to his Clan with him. The thought made Luckypaw purr loudly with amusement. Her hazel eyes sparkled with a friendly laughter as she gazed at the tom. "Need a little help?," she joked, they both knew she couldn't really help the tom out, she would be trespassing on his Clan's territory, but she loved a good joke. Her eyes suddenly widened again. "Oh, excuse my rudeness! What's your name?" she sat back on her haunches, though her stump of a tail moved from side to side excitedly, causing her rump to riggle slightly, she was quite excited at the prospect of making a friend from a different Clan. And a handsome tom, no doubt! She had to admit that this was exciting. Her previous distress completely forgotten, she gazed at the tom expectantly, waiting for him to tell her his name.

Copperleap's hello sounded more as suspicious, as if he was trying to accuse the molly as being a spy or something, or maybe that was just his paranoia speaking. Then again, Copperleap always been a bit aloof and trusting to anyone and anything - even other cats of different clans, which could be dangerous, but Copperleap liked to establish a bit of initial trust before someone gave him a reason to distrust. Plus, this was a small molly, and even though she was from a different clan, something about her told him that she wasn't dangerous. Specifically since she lost her balance from his presence and almost fell on the rocks. Copperleap's whiskers twitched in amusement and a gentle laugh escaped his maw as he watched her regain her balance. ''Luckypaw, you say?'' The tom mused, a small purr rumbling in his throat. ''Lucky as in the...four leaf clover or Lucky as in good things shall come your way?'' He tilted his head curiously - he didn't know why he was trying to denote the meaning of why she was named Luckypaw, and she was probably confused as to why he was asking, but Copperleap had a knack for trying to decode new cats' names when he first meet them. Another reason why he felt she wasn't a threat because of her laughter, filled with mirthfulness and kindness. ''Do you really think you can? Moving these things back will take me forever to get them back to my clan!'' Luckypaw was probably joking but Copperleap was too vacuous to understand a joke when it was present, so to him, it seemed like she was genuinely wanting to help him. ''Then again, I really don't wanna disturb the balance of the planet if I move these precious rocks from their habitat, so maybe it's best if I leave them here...or just take one for the journey? Well, they are mighty pretty, I won't deny that.'' He idly thought aloud, a small smile making its way onto his maw as he swished his tail blithely back and forth, his gaze lingering on the rock until turning back to the pretty little molly that made new company. Copperleap's smile widened, watching her excitement was contagious because it made him excited. ''Well, lil bunny, my name's Copper!'' He greeted, exuberantly, leaving out his full clan name because he didn't think his entire name mattered. The nickname 'Bunny' leaving his mouth without even thinking because her stubby tail was wiggling like that of a bunny, and it reminded him how adorable that was to watch. He started wagging his fluffy tail like that of a dog, mimicking her movements. ''What're even doing here anyway? Not to spy on me are you? I don't mean to cause any harm, I swear!'' He told her quickly with a shake of his head and blink of his eyes. ''Quite honestly...I don't even remember how I got here.'' He snorted with a snicker, which was honest. He remembered being in skyclan territory, but how he got all the way over here? That was a mystery to him.
