RiverClan Patrols

[taillow]

Situated near the base of the meeting rock, a small stone protrudes from the ground upon which Dusklion sits to call patrols. It is here that cats will also report in by posting an IC report, and a link to the supplies obtained during the patrol (if hunting or herb).

PATROL PUNISHMENTS:

Warriors
➥ 1st Failure: 2 week demotion and a repetition of their assigned patrol with at least one adult supervisor. Noncompletion = 1 moon demotion
➥ 2nd Failure: 2-week temporary exile*
➥ 3rd Failure: Permanent exile

Apprentices
➥ 1st Failure: Assigned chore supervised by an adult and report due upon completion within 10 days. Noncompletion = 1 week demotion
➥ 2nd Failure: 1 moon demotion; assigned and supervised task upon restoration of their rank. Noncompletion = 2 week temporary exile
➥ 3rd Failure: 1 moon temporary exile*
➥ 4th Failure: Permanent exile

*All temporary exile punishments require at least 3 posts in the Outskirts and a completed rejoining (Prison Escape Purrk nonapplicable)

Please note that if they try to come back before time is up, they risk further IC punishment!

So, once she finally padded through the familiar border of Riverclan's camp, she donned her usual aura of silence until she spotted an easily recognizable golden pelt. She quietly huffed and, after getting her confession in order, walked right on over to him. She made sure to straighten out her stance and dipped her head once she stopped in front of him. "....Lionstar?"

"Actually," meowed the leader, stepping forward, "It's Sootstar, now. Lionstorm has stepped down from his position. You've been gone for nearly a moon, Koiripple, care to explain where you've been?"

Sootstar raised a brow, clearly eager to hear her explanation.

"S-...Sootstar? Oh by the moons I've missed a lot, haven't I?" The molly frowned sadly and let her ears turn backward. "I admit I've been in a daze for some time now....I had been wandering the territory when Silverpelt appeared in the sky again. I had found myself down near Lionsbeach and I just....well, it's hard to explain. I looked out on the waters and just sat there, i-it felt like I had forgotten about anything else, that there wasn't anything in that moment......that moment just dragged on for so long. That's never happened to me before. I don't know how long it had been until I came to, but when I did I....I-I practically forgot what I was doing. It took me a while to recall the bits and pieces, but I just began to look around the territory until I ended up back here.....I'm sorry, I just don't know what happened to me." Her frown grew and she began to shuffle a little.

Ashpool lead her mate to go find Sootstar. He was the open to be informed that Hickoryblaze has returned. The molly stayed by his side as she padded up to the leader. "Sootstar I found Hickoryblaze in the Territory. He's had a rough time, but managed to come home.", she meowed. Ashpool was going to leave the explaining to Hickoryblaze. After all he was trying to rejoin not him.

It hadn't been to long, but perhaps a bit long in the eyes of a patrol that, unknown to Primrosepaw, actually had to be reported back like.. Way before. So why had it not been done yet? Primrosepaw only had half an answer for that. Somewhere along the way of following Silversong back to camp, the apprentice lost sight (or rather sound) of her. And without that guidance, combined with both her lack of sight and knowledge of the territory, Primrosepaw had gotten lost for a bit, finding her way back by luck. That was how it went for her, as for her mentor? She didn't know. Now, the small apprentice was just walking, still mostly unaware that each passing moment was another moment to late for the patrol report, when she found herself nearly walking into yet another one of the strange furry barriers. She hadn't heard that one arrive, so it caught her a bit by surprise.

Silent slipped into the camp. Riverclan?? He guess. He flicked his tail and wandered farther

Sootstar raised a brow, "So-... Just to make sure I have this right, for nearly a moon you found yourself... stunned? In a stupor? And only now you've broken out of it and found your way home. Do I have that right?"

It was more of a rhetorical question, as he quickly moved on, "How can you be sure this won't happen again?"

Sootstar was headed out of camp when he spotted Primrosepaw wandering, seemingly, in his direction. Before he knew it, she had stumbled into his side and he took a step back to put some distance between them.

"Primrosepaw? Where have you been?"

Catching an unfamiliar scent, Sootstar was quickly on the case. It wasn't long after slipping out of his den that he spotted the intruder. What did they even have camp guards for?

"What exactly do you think you're doing?" He meowed, placing himself firmly in front of the rogue tom.

Hmm.... Silent pointed to his mouth and shook his head. This cat seems smart... He should figure it out.

With the baby problems out of the way, Flyfur padded to Sootstar to report what had happened, leaf covering the nasty prey she carried so she didn't have to actually touch it. She set it down to speak.
"Someone isn't being careful with their prey. They left this," she gestured to the crow food she had set down, "in the nursery, where Lakekit saw it and tried to eat it, revealing it had maggots in it. Thankfully, he stopped trying to eat it, but the fact it was laying where anyone could have gotten it worries me. I think Lakekit will be alright, but if he seems off, I'll take him to Sparrowskip just in case."
Flyfur wasn't sure how much Sparrowskip or Snakepaw had been taught, but hopefully they had something for an upset stomach. Maybe just induce vomiting since he ate bad prey.
But, this wasn't the only thing she'd be bringing to him. The incident with Rapidkit was still just as fresh on her mind.
"When Lionstorm was still leader, he assigned Foxpaw to help me watch the kits. It was doing well, but today one of the kits, Rapidkit, had harrassed her while I was gone, to the point she was crying."
Her tail lashed at the thought. Foxpaw wasn't the greatest cat for the job, she was too easily distracted, but this really boiled her blood.
The kits shouldn't be allowed to think they can bully her just because this was her punishment.
"I'm not certain what you can do to help, but I thought I'd let you know anyway."
She'd be having a word with a few queens, to have them let their little brats know it wasn't ok to harass Foxpaw. Sure, it was just one kit right now, but it could quickly get out of paw and any number of kits could decide to get after her.

"Sootfather!"

Lionstorm made his way into camp once the giant group of cats were safely inside, making his way immediately to where the mostly white tom was. "It seems you missed out on all the fun. Tinypaw and I went on a quick search for some of our Clan-mates and we found.." he beckoned to the crowd, "a lot of them in the outskirts not far from here. Most of them seem to have gotten lost while hunting, Rainpuddle wanted to do some soul searching, and Echopaw is just plain stupid. And rude, by the way. She spewed some apology vomit on me and then made some lewd comments about how heavy I was getting." As if. Lionstorm hardly remembered to eat most of the time - one would think more cats would be concerned by his lankiness.
