StormClan/1

Coldstar stood on the high rock, the cold breeze ruffling her fur. She exhaled slowly, and then called the clan together. "All cats old enough to climb up the mountain assemble beneath the high rock for a clan meeting!" Warriors peeked their head out of their den, and all the cats slowly gathered for the meeting. "As you know, my faithful deputy, Hardshade, died in a rock slide a night ago, and it is time to appoint a deputy." She said in a loud, clear voice. "I have thought long and hard about this decision, and hope I have chosen one who has shown their loyalty and one that will do what is best for the clan." Coldstar noticed Blondepool looking up at her with shining eyes. To do what is best for the Clan. She thought, as she took a deep breath. "Lilyfire, you have shown your devotion to StormClan ever since you have joined. Do you accept this position as deputy and promise to defend the clan with your life?" - Coldstar
Lilyfire gasped. “Oh my, I do.” She meowed, shocked. She kept her pelt from bristling.—Lilyfire
"I say these words before StarClan, so that the spirits of our warrior ancestors may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of StormClan is Lilyfire." She mewed. "Lilyfire, Lilyfire!" The clan cheered. "The meeting is over." Coldstar said, padding down to congratulate the new deputy. "I know you will do well." Coldstar said to Lilyfire, smiling. - Coldstar
Lynxpelt ran up to the newly appointed deputy. "Congratulations, Lilyfire! You deserved this position." approved Lynxpelt. -Lynxpelt
Copperfang and Silverpool hung in the back of the crowd- well, he made her hang back. If he wasn't there to keep track of her, the savannah she-cat would be in the front screaming her head off in cheer, and she'd be a total embarrassment because of it. "I wish I were responsible." Silverpool admited out-right, leaving Copperfang to bow his head bashfully. "I wish you were too, Silverpool." -- Copperfang & Silverpool
Blossomfield purred as she watched Lilyfire accept the congratulations from her Clanmates. Blossomfield felt her unborn kits bulge in her belly. She was heavily pregnant. She would give birth within a moon... Will one of my kits be deputy one day? she thought, licking her soft fur. She searched for Tigershade in the crowd. "Tigershade!" she cried, spotting her mate. - Blossomfield
Suddenly, Blossomfield felt a sharp pain in her stomach. Probably just birth pains, she thought. My kits aren't supposed to come for another moon. But the pain kept growing, and she let out a yowl: "My kits are coming! Help!" - Blossomfield
Tigershade looked up and saw his mate yelling for him. Being the protective tom he was, he dashed over. "Blossomfield, what's wrong?" He asked. "My kit's are coming!" She panted, grimacing in pain. "Now?" Tigershade asked. "I can't belive it! I'll get Blondepool, just stay here!" "Where do you think I would go?" Tigershade thought he heard Blossomfield say. - Tigershade
Blondepool heard heavy paw-steps from behind her, and caught a musty scent. Tigershade. I wonder what he wants. "Blondepool!" Tigershade said urgently. "Blossomfield's kits are coming!" "Now?" Blondepool asked. "That's early..." "Is there something wrong?" Tigershade's eyes widened. "Oh nothing..." Blondepool muttered, heading to the nursery. She sniffed and caught Blossomfield scent. "Blossomfield, are you okay? Are you positive your kits are-" She was interrupted by a yowl of pain. "Guess so." She joked. "I'll be back with herbs. Tigershade-" The rest of the birth was a blur. It didn't take very long, and soon there were four small kits on the ground. Blondepool sniffed. "They smell okay. What are you going to name them?" She asked. - Blondepool
Blossomfield gazed at the small bundles of fur sniffing at her belly. "I'll the name the black one tom...Acornkit and the ginger-and-white tabby she-kit...Flashkit." She lapped at the brown tabby tom and the golden spotted bengal she-kit. "And the tabby kit will be...Talonkit. And the other will be...Leopardkit." She sighed with relief. - Blossomfield
"Cute!" Blondepool squealed. "I'll go tell Coldstar." She flicked her tail and exited the den. - Blondepool
"They're amazing." Tigershade purred. "You're going to be a great mother." - Tigershade
Silverpool, still seated beside her red brother, peered in the direction of the nursery curiously with round yellow eyes. "I wonder if I'll ever have kits..." She spoke thoughtfully out loud, causing concern from her kittypet brother. Copperfang jumped to his paws. His sister, have kits? That would mean she'd have to take up a mate- and he didn't approve of that! "Hey!!" Copperfang decided suddenly. "Let's go hunting!" -- Copperfang & Silverpool
Blossomfield lapped at Acornkit, purring. Her kits suckled at her belly. "They're beautiful," she mewed. "They're going to be fine warriors like you, Tigershade." - Blossomfield
Leopardkit squeaked and squirmed, her small muzzle nuzzling at the soft fur. - Leopardkit
Lilyfire stood at the nursery enterence. “Oh, how I love how cute kits are!” She purred.—Lilyfire
Amberpaw bounced around happily. Being the medicine cat apprentice was her dream and she was so glad she was fulfilling it. ~Amberpaw
Lilyfire yawned.-Lilyfire
Blackpaw perked her ears when she overheard Copperfang exclaim something about "hunting". She wanted to go, too! -- Blackpaw
Thrushpaw was snoozing in the apprentice den. He was having a wonderful dream about hunting goats, when his stomach rumbled. A pang of hunger woke him up. "Stupid stomach..." He muttered. - Thrushpaw
Tigershade padded up Copperfang. "Hey Copperfang." He mewed cheerfully. "I was going to teach Thrushpaw how to rock jump today. I was wondering if you and Blackpaw wanted to come?" - Tigershade
Blackpaw had already trotted up to the red-furred tom's side, ears perked curiously as she stared up at her mentor. Copperfang gritted his teeth, as his intentions had been to get his sister away from the kits before she...well, wanted some. "Yeah, we can come." He decided with a small sigh. -- Copperfang & Blackpaw
Thrushpaw bounded up to Tigershade. "We're going rock jumping?" He exclaimed, bouncing up and down. "Yes." Tigershade answered, smiling. He then turned to Copperfang. "I was thinking we could go to the Cliffside? It's a steep climb though. What do you think?" - Tigershade + Thrushpaw
"That should work," Copperfang answered with a flick of his tail, looking down at Blackpaw to receive a calm nod of approval. -- Copperfang & Blackpaw
Meanwhile, Blossomfield licked her kits. Talonkit squeaked and pawed at her belly. Their eyes were showing signs of opening. - Blossomfield & Talonkit
(what in the world? Why were you role playing my OCs??) -- Whiteout
Tigershade nodded. - Tigershade
(Are you talking to me? Because I'm not. Blossomfield and Talonkit belong to me.) -- Silvery
(Whiteout was talking to me. My sister rped Tigershade. -_-) - TNT
(I see...) - Silvery
Copperfang turned and began to walk out of camp, Blackpaw eagerly trotting at his side. "Later in the evening, we'll have your warrior assessment. I think you're just about finished with your training." The red-furred tom murmured. -- Copperfang & Blackpaw
Blossomfield sighed. - Blossomfield
----
Two moons later...
((IMPORTANT: Please move along to the Gathering in the Main Roleplay!!)) -- Silvery
"Here I am again..." Coldstar muttered, climbing onto the highrock. "All cats old enough to climb up the mountain assemble beneath the high rock for a clan meeting!" She yowled. "Today, is an important day. Blackpaw has finished her warrior assessment." She settled her gaze on the apprentice. "I, Coldstar, and leader of StormClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the way of the code, and I commend them to you as a warrior in turn. Blackpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do." Blackpaw mewed.
"Then by the power of Starclan I give you your warrior name. From here on out you will be know as Blackfire. Starclan honers your patience and resilience." -- Coldstar
The new warrior's eyes practically glowed. "Blackfire" had to be the coolest name in all of StormClan! She ignored the strange sensation in her gut as she enjoyed her own warrior ceremony, before her mind drifted to Growlpaw. Will he ever get his warrior name? -- Blackfire
----
Two moons later...
Lilyfire grumbled to herself before purring congrats to to Blackfire. It was strange having to be deputy. As long as things where organized and perfect she’d be a happy deputy.-Lily
Though she was still deputy and wile everyone was celebrating she headed out to hunt instead. She slipped through the mountains and huge boulders and ledges until she heard helpless mewling and stopped.-Lilyfire
"Helllllp!" a unknown cat screamed followed by a young cat mews --unknown
Lilyfire dashed over to the kit. “What in the name of! Though the kit started to dash somewhere and she chased after it, though it was a little guy so he wasn’t as fast, though He led her to two bodies. “What...” she nudged the first which was limp and cold. The second though. It was warm and full of life. “Oh.”-Lily
"Don't touch her!" The older kit yelled --Unknown
Lilyfire glared back. “You think I’m gonna hurt them? That’s against the code.” She mpgrowled before grabbing the living kit’s scruff and turning to leave the dead one.-Lily
"What about my little sister!" the kit screamed as one of the bodys moved. --unknown
Lilyfire sighed. “That one’s dead. If I don’t take you and you back to camp you’ll all be dead.” She said sternly.-Lily
(I mean pinekit)--Dawn
Lilyfire sighed as she grabbed the other kit and spat. “Happy now?” In a growl before flicking her tail to signal him to follow her.-Lily
The older kit followed Lillyfire into the unknown. --Unknown
Lilyfire took the kits and emerged from the entrance to camp. “Follow me.” And she padded up to Coldstar with kits in her mouth.-Lily
The older kit followed her orders --Unknown
The younger kit sqealed as she was lifted she still couldn't see. --Unknown
“these kits where found as I was hunting. One of them is dead and these two are living.” She dropped the dead kit.-Lily
The younger kit winnced smelling death. And started to scream --Unknown
“it’s fine you kits, just calm down and thank StarClan you aren’t dead.” She sighed and turned to Coldstar. “I shall take care of them as I think Blossomfield has enough milk for five.” And she turned away and left the living kit with Blossomfields kits. “She needs milk.” And turned to the other kit. “Have names?”-Lily
The older kit looked at his paws "no." --Unknown
“hmmm. Want me to name you?” She asked the tom kit.-Lily
"I still don't really understand the points of names. Why cant everyone be named... FRED!" The older kit said. The younger kit laughed squiling. --unknown
Lilyfire rolled her eyes with amusement, “being given a warrior name should fill you with pride. As it shows you belong in the wild and it’s a gift.” She meowed.-Lily
"OOOOOO I want a name!" The older kit said the younger one squeking in agreement
Likyfire giggled. “Well, I’d probably make you off your appearance as you look fierce as a Rat. Don’t be fooled, they can kill cats sometimes if we aren’t careful.”-Lily
"AWWWWW I DON'T WANT TO BE A RAT!!!!!" Ratkit whined --Ratkit
“Haven’t you known in the past rats take lives and work in swarms together, you also, Erm, look like a rat. In a good mannered fashion.” She sighed. “The other, Erm, your sister can be Pinekit after her spiky fur.”-Lily
Ratkit screamed throwing a tantrum --Ratkit
((She's my only queen with adoptable kits, see post in Discussion please)) Blackfire lay in the warrior's den with her head on her paws. Being a warrior was great and all, but something didn't feel right about her. Her belly felt way too large. She felt hungry all the time, but then at dawn, she'd fell horribly sick and...did she just miss Growlpaw? No, I'm done with him. The dark-furred warrior thought to herself simply with a soft snort. He needs to focus on being a warrior, not some lazy furball. -- Blackfire
Jayfur woke up from his nap heading over to the nursery to find out what the fuss from the nursery was about. --Jayfur
"I DON'T WANT TO BE A RAT!I DON'T WANT TO BE A RAT!I DON'T WANT TO BE A RAT!!!" Ratkit continued --Ratkit
Blossomfield curled her tail around her kits. - Blossomfield
"I DON'T WANT TO BE A RAT!! I Don't Want To Be A Rat! i don't want to be a rat...." Soon Ratkit passed out from screaming so much. --Ratkit
Lilyfire lay a paw on his tail. “Ratkit. If you EVER want to be a warrior or even a good leader you can’t ever go against a gift! That was irresponsible and I am very disappointed in you. If you get better manners then you might be apprenticed earlier.” She snarled.-Lily
Ratkit snored after not hearing a thing Lilyfire said. --Ratkit
Lilyfire growled. “Well then.” And grabbed him by the scruff and took him on a walk around camp to introduce him to the other warriors. Though he didn’t walk, her needed to stay with her so carrying him is Much better.-Lily
Ratkit woke up after Lilyfire pick him up "Hey watch the scruff!" and Pinekit sniffed around trying to follow Lilyfire --Rat and pinekit
Lilyfire growled. Though took him into the nursery. “That’s Blossomfield and her kits, Flashkit, Talonkit, Leopardkit, and Acornkit. This is where Pinekit will grow up.”-Lily
Pinekit let out a happy sqeauk stumbleing into the nursery. Ratkit ran after her. --Pinekit
Pinekit sniffed around smelling another grown up and 4 kits. Pinekit started running as fast as she could but ended up tripping over some moss beding. --Pinekit
Lilyfire sighed as she took the kit to the warriors den. “And the warriors den. Silverpool, Copperfang, Lynxpelt, Blackfire, Shadowclaw, and Tigershade.“-Lily
Ratkit squinted at the large cats. "Why is no one in this place my age?" --Ratkit
“Because the kits aren’t old enough yet.” Lilyfire then took him to the apprentices den. “Well, these are the apprentices. Rainpaw, Snowpaw, Amberpaw, and Thrushpaw.”-Lily
"Wow cool! They seem closer to my age!" --Ratkit
Shadowclaw looked around her home. Oh how she loved it. --Shadowclaw
Ratkit looked at lilyfire "Can i do something fun?" --Ratkit
Blackfire had quietly moved herself into the nursery since learning that she was expecting kittens. She kept things under the wraps for the most part- the father to her litter wasn't anyone's buisness. -- Blackfire
Lilyfire sighed. ‘No. You’re too young. Though tomorrow you’ll be an apprentice with them.”-Lily
"REALLY!" Ratkit said eyes glittering --Ratkit
“if you behave until morning.” Lilyfire replied sharply.-Lily
Ratkit gulped holding his breath trying to not talk smiling with his cheeks filled with air. --Ratkit
Lilyfire sighed as she then padded into the nursery. “Greetings Blackfire, I want to congratulate you for expecting your kits, they’ll be great warriors to StormClan.” She purred through a mouth of Ratkit.-Lilyfire
Colstar padded up to the high rock. It was time to make new apprentices. "All cats old enough to climb up the mountain assemble beneath the high rock for a clan meeting!" She yowled as the cats began to assemble. "It's time to make a new apprentice." Coldstar mewed, then turned to Ratkit. "Ratkit step forward. From this day until you receive your warrior name you will be called Ratpaw. I will mentor you." She smiled at Ratpaw. -- Coldstar
Pinekit just learned to talk and is moons younger than her brother. And i already arranged Pinekit to be a future med cat)) --Skylia
Ratpaw walked up to the leader smiling and touched noses with him. Thinking Wow i want to be a leader!--Ratpaw
s(her) Lilyfire grinned, well now she had to take care of Pinekit. She padded over to the nursery. “C’mon, your brother is an apprentice now you can’t sleep.”-Lily
"Why! I'm tired!" Pinekit grumbled rolling onto her back letting her stomach obsorb the sun. --Pinekit
Snowpaw came over. "Hey, did someone die?" he joked, prodding Pinekit with his forepaw. "C'mon, are you not going to congratulate Ratpaw at all?"- Snowpaw
Pinekit grumbled Ratpaw was so self obsorbed maybe it was just a apprentice thing reasons why i won't be like him... --Pinekit
Ratkit ran up to his little sister "Pinekit look im an apprentice now!" --Ratkit
Pinekit said "Yay! I'm going to play now!" Then ran away --Pinekit
"that's harsh," Snowpaw said, then he padded over to join Rainpaw in the apprentices den -Snowpaw
Lilyfire yawned.-Lily
Pinekit ran up to Leopardkit batting at leopardkit's ears laughing --Pinekit
Shadowclaw watched the ceremony of Ratkit, and smiled. She remembered the joy of becoming an apprentice. She bounded out of camp to hunt.--Shadowclaw
Copperfang listened in painful silence as Silverpool ranted on to her brother about her amazing hunting trip. She seemed a little too enthusiastic about catching a simple mouse, but then again...they had both been nothing more than kittypets for several moons. -- Copperfang & Silverpool
Coldstar padded to the ridge, the wind ruffling her fur. Here she had a large view of the cliffside. - Coldstar
Lilyfire sighed as she padded over to the leader. “Greetings. How are you?”-Lily
Coldstar turned to her deputy, sighing. "I'm alright. You?" - Coldstar
“doing well.” She meowed, though at the sight of the territories she sighed. “Nothing’s really getting better, Pinekit’s showing her interests in being a medicine cat too.” Sending a glance to the playful kit. bringing berries to Blondepool.-Lily
"Pinekit seems like a good medicine cat. We'll consider him," Coldstar meowed thoughtfully. - Coldstar
Lilyfire sighed. “Her,” she corrected. Though wondered what the issue was for the other clans. Nothing exciting was happening here. Well, that’s what she thought.-Lily
Coldstar appreciated her deputy. She flicked her feathery tail and turned back to camp. "Let's head back down and see what the Clan is up to." She started to pad down the cliff. - Coldstar
“sure.” Lilyfire followed the leader.-Lily
Pinekit had found a patch of cat’s claw and was asking blondepool if it was a herb—Pine
Shadowclaw padded back towards camp with two mice and a stray rabbit. She nearly bumped into Coldstar and Lilyfire. --Shadowclaw
"Hello, Shadowclaw," Coldstar mewed. - Coldstar
Shadowclaw drew back and shook away the shock. She dipped her head, and meowed around the prey in her mouth," Oh am I intruding? I am sorry!" --Shadowclaw
Ratpaw sat in his new spot in the apprentice den wow! i can't belive the leader wants to train me! I'm a rouge let alone my looks... but still i can't wait to be a warrior then maybe! A LEADER! --Ratpaw
Coldstar shook her head. "No, you're fine. If you went on a hunting patrol, you may rest, Shadowclaw." She turned to her deputy. "Lilyfire, will you please send out the evening patrols?" - Coldstar
Lilyfire nodded, “Alright, I’d like Copperfang and Solverpool to take a hunting patrol, and I’d like Lynxpelt to take a selected border patrol around the territory.” She meowed. though, she swiftly turned her head as she heard distant rustling of bushes, “I’ll be right back, Coldstar.” She dipped her head as she exited camp, something felt a buzz in her ears, she flattened her ears as she looked around for it, she widened her eyes as she saw the bloodiest cat ever! “Whta in StarClan!”—Lilyfire
Shadowclaw delivered her prey but as she turned to the warriors den she hear Lilyfire exclaim," What in StarClan!" She walked up next to her and meowed,"What happened? Are you alright?" She followed Lilyfire's gaze and her eyes widened in horror. "I'll get Blondepool." She ran into the medicine cat's den and meowed hurriedly," Come quick amazingly bloody cat, outside of the camp entrance! "--Shadowclaw
Lilyfire muttered as she looked to the cat, it was odd... she prodded it, well, Him. She muttered. “Who are you, imposter.” She wasn’t scared, it was alarming but she held her ground, “Shadowclaw.” She hissed. “It’s dead.” She growled. Though, before she could even turn to Shadowclaw, she felt something target her neck as she yowled in pain, “who—!” Though she’d only saw the she-cat’s eyes. Then Sycamore grinned as she took more swipes at Lilyfire’s neck until she fell to the ground. “Heh. You Clan cats are weak.” She growled as Lilyfire’s vision had faded to black.-Lily & Sycamore.
Blackfire curled her tail around her belly, absorbed in her own world and ignorant of the commotion outside of the nursery. Not much longer... The dark-furred she-cat reminded herself. -- Blackfire
Shadowclaw returned to the Entrance and her eyes darkened. Standing over lilyfire's limp body was a strange cat. Shadowclaw growled," Who are you and what did you do?" --Shadowclaw
Sycamore cursed as she licked the blood off of her paws. “My job.” She grinned, before leaping into the trees and disappearing without a trace.
Nettlepaw laughed as she then scented something. “Whta is thta!? It smells worse than the prey!” She meowed, not realizing what the scent of death was quite yet.-Nettle
Shadowclaw ran up to the leader's den. "Coldstar! It is important."--Shadowclaw
Copperfang prepared to charge at the stranger in hopes of chasing her out, but it appeared that she left on her own accord. The red-furred tom sat back with his hackles raised, glancing around to ensure that his apprentice and sister were safe from harm's way. -- Copperfang
Nettlepaw flattened her ears as she looked to Copperfang, “is thta what dead things smell like? Dead cats?” She frowned, staying behind her mentor,-Nettle
Coldstar trotted out, her pelt bushed. - Coldstar
Nettlepaw frowned. “Lilyfire’s dead?” She asked.-Nettle
Coldstar stood, shocked. "Dead?" she echoed. She raced out to see Lilyfire's body. - Coldstar
Nettlepaw frowned. “I think so...”-Nettle
Shadowclaw bounded along beside Coldstar. " Okay so, Lilyfire and i found a dead cat right outside of camp, and when i went inside a strange cat attacked Lilyfire and killed her. I arrived too late to saw Lilyfire, but i saw the cat. She disappeared with out a trace."--Shadowclaw
Nettlepaw frowned,-Nettle
Coldstar felt cold. "An assassin, perhaps? Come to murder our Clanmates?" She nodded to Shadowclaw and Nettlepaw. "Please take Lilyfire's body back to camp. I will choose the next deputy by moon high." - Coldstar
Shadowclaw nodded and grabbed Lilyfire's scruff. She and Nettlepaw dragged the body to the center of the camp. Then she called out for the whole clan. After saying words of grief into lilyfire's fur she trudged into the warrior's den, and fell asleep after a tiring and horrific afternoon. --shadowclaw
Nettlepaw frowned.-Nettle
Coldstar dipped her muzzle to her deputy's corpse. "You were an amazing and honorable deputy. No one could have asked better of you. May you find shelter where you sleep and prey where you hunt. Rest in the stars, Lilyfire." - Coldstar
Nettlepaw eachoed Coldstar in a mutter. “Hmmm, this cant be an accident....” she meowed.-Nettle
Copperfang was relieved to see that both his sister and apprentice were safe. He noted that Silverpool hadn't even noticed the attack until the body was returned to camp, as she had been stuffing her face into a fat blackbird. -- Copperfang
Nettlepaw sighed as she decided to watch what the clan does. She needed to know just in case she would be promoted later.-Nettle
"As a leader, it is my duty to name a deputy when an old one dies or retires." Coldstar breathed deeply, summoning a warrior to mind. "By the powers of StarClan, the new deputy of StormClan will be Copperfang." - Coldstar
Shadowclaw ran up to the new deputy." Oh my goodness. Congrats Copperfang!" --Shadowclaw
Nettlepaw gasped. “Wait, my mentor is the deputy!?” She yowled. Smiling, though not running into the crowd around him.-Nettle
Copperfang raised his head with a shocked expression. Me? The...the kittypet? It was completely unexpected, and he could see Silverpool jumping in joy to hear his name. "I accept." He responded after he was finally able to digest the situation. -- Copperfang
Coldstar lifted her head. "Thank you." - Coldstar
Ratpaw woke up wanting to talk to his adopted mother Lillyfire walking into the middle of the camp he saw his savior laying there unmoving. Ratpaw froze in shock, then tearing up ran away into the canyons.--Ratpaw
Pinekit heared lots of noise outside of the nursery about a new deputy or somthing. But how could that be possible her mom was the deputy of StormClan she saw her brother Ratpaw running out of camp then saw the body. This was the first time she had seen a dead body. Then she heard mumering about Lillyfire being assanaited. I don't ever want to kill anyone. I want to be a medicane cat she then ran into the medicane cat den. --Pinekit
Nettlepaw purred. Though lowered as she padded up to her mentor. “Does this mean training will be slow because of all the patrols.....?” she meowed.—Nettle
Pinekit ran into the medicane cat den shoving her face into Blondepools pelt crying. --Pinekit
Coldstar felt a heaviness in her heart. Her deputy, Lilyfire, was dead. - Coldstar
Copperfang twitched a shaded ear when he heard his apprentice's voice. "No," he replied quickly, "we'll resume training as normal. Nothing will be changed, I'll just have less downtime for myself." Not that he didn't mind, Silverpool kept him plenty busy. But now, he had authoritative power over his sister when it came to preventing her from doing anything...foolish. -- Copperfang
The temporary upset in camp had gotten to Blackfire only momentarily, or so she thought. Everything seemed to be fine for the dark-coated queen until she realized that she was kitting. In the end, the she-cat was left with three lovely furballs: Dotkit, Charcoalkit, and Badgerkit. Perhaps Growlstrike hadn't been around as a parental figure, but Blackfire loved her kits nonetheless. They would be perfect warriors for StormClan..she thought about their success as her form weakened from bloodloss, until she silently passed away with her three bundles of fur by her belly. -- Blackfire
It was good to have good come out of the bad. Despite Lilyfire's tragic death, three new members of the Clan was always a good sign. - Coldstar
Coldstar was suddenly shocked to see that Blackfire was dead. Grief overcame her. - Coldstar
Nettlepaw frowned, “W-Wait, why, is she.” She only was alarmed by the yowls as Blackfire kitted, but peaking now...-Nettle
"She's dead," Coldstar rasped. She picked up the limp black body and placed it in the middle of the clearing. "We have lost...another Clanmate..." A sudden thought shook her. Am I being punished for not believing in StarClan? - Coldstar
Nettlepaw took a step back. “W-What about the kits, th-they need a mother, r-right?” Suddenly fear struck by all the deaths happening around her, would she be next?-Nettlepaw
Pinekit knew she had to work extra hard as a kit to prove that she was fit to be a medicane cat." --Pinekit
Coldstar stared at Nettlepaw. "Don't worry, young one. I will call the Clan to mourn Blackfire. We can figure it out from there." - Coldstar
Pinekit sneaked out of camp wandering around the clan territory. She started to wander down into a canyon that had dryed up after the last flash flood. The found multipale succulants that would help burns and bring water to the clan. --Pinekit
Nettlepaw shivered. “Okay,” she cast a quick glance to Blackfire’s kits before turning to go do something else.-Nettle
Pinekit ripped off a branch of the standing succulent and ran back to camp before anyone knew she was missing. --Pinekit
Ratpaw walked up to his new mentor and leader and asked "Well what kind of cool training am i going to do today?" --Ratpaw
Dotkit squeaked as she’d tripped over her paws, unable to see anything but blurs.-Dotkit
Jayfur rolled in the sun on the red rocks. He felt a little bit of itching in his pelt flies? it reminded him of the time when he was a apprentice where the camp a was infested with them. well i should probably have the medicane cat check that out. --Jayfur
Badgerkit curled up against Dotkit. - Badgerkit
Dotkit scooted herself closer to Badgerkit to stay warm.-Dot
Badgerkit then curled up to Blackfire’s body, to try and keep warm. - Badgerkit
wavespirit walked into camp, she was carrying prey "gee, what a nice day" - wavespirit
Nettlepaw chuckled. “Hi Wavespirit! How are you today! Besides the deputy dying and a queen dying giving kits— besides all the bad things!”-Nettlepaw
she looked at the apprentice "well, thats very sad. I hope you have a great day!" - wavespirit
Coldstar turned to Ratpaw, her eyes clouded. "Blackfire has died. We need a queen to nurse her kits." She leaped onto a rock and yowled, "Let all cats old enough to catch prey gather here for a Clan meeting!" - Coldstar
Nettlepaw pricked her ears.-Nettle
Coldstar dipped her head. "We have terrible news. Blackfire, a beloved and loyal queen and warrior, has sadly passed on to StarClan, leaving her three kits behind without a mother." - Coldstar
Dotkit tried to hear the commotion.-Dot
Copperfang bowed his head mournfully. My first apprentice... She was too young to die, let alone have kits at such an early age. He was still curious as to who the father was, but Blackfire never even told him that she was expecting. Naturally, she wouldn't have told him who the father was. -- Copperfang
Coldstar looked around to let the news soak in. Then she continued. "Following this, Blossomfield will nurse Blackfire's kits alongside her own." She set her gaze on the tortoiseshell queen. - Coldstar
Blossomfield dipped her head. "Of course," she mewed. - Blossomfield
Ratpaw gasped and thought about his adopted mother had passed. and remebered that Pinekit still needed a mom to adopt her because she wasn't old enough yet. (i do need someone to adopt pinekit) --Ratpaw
Badgerkit hardly heard the commotion going on outside. She eventually realized her mother’s body wasn’t warming her, as it should have been, so she curled up against her siblings. - Badgerkit
Dotkit squeaked.-Dot
"I'd like to name them," Copperfang decided quickly, the deputy feeling his belly tighten at his sudden demand and expecting that it might not be well-received. "...She was my apprentice, she had no official mate nor family to call her own...I'm the closest thing to family that she's got." The red-furred tom added in hopes of explaining his sudden outburst. -- Copperfang
Jayfur walked into the medicane cat den, "Blondepool i think i may have fleas can you take a look?" He asked. --Jayfur
Blossomfield nodded. "Of course you can name them, Copperfang." - Blossomfield
Dotkit mewoed.-Dot
Brackenflower took her two kits out into the clearing. --Brackenflower
Copperfang invited Silverpool into the nursery, so that his kittypet sister could be his witness to the naming of the kits. He looked over his apprentice's kittens with soft eyes, feeling his heart drop at the sight of the little black-and-white kit. So much like Blackfire... She had been a very promising warrior, and Copperfang was honored to have trained her. The ruddy deputy sat down, thoughtfully looking over the three kits that were clumped up together. "Badgerkit," he decided for the black-coated kit. Moving on, he twitched his whiskers curiously at the gray she-kit with a unique white spot over her eye. "Dotkit." He couldn't resist a smile- it was a most adorable name. Lastly, the only tom of the litter...his fur was a unique shade of dark, smoky gray. "...Charcoalkit for Blackfire's only tom." Copperfang decided at last with a confident smile, whereas Silverpool snorted beside him. "Brother, you give out lame names. Should've let me pick!" -- Copperfang & Silverpool
Sensing that other cats were in the nursery, hovering over her and her siblings, Badgerkit woke up squirmed around trying to get warmer and more comfortable. - Badgerkit
(Irk the cutest name)Dotkit sneezed before having a workout opening her eyes.-Dot
Copperfang narrowed his eyes into a sharp glare as he moved his gaze over to Silverpool. How did I ever tolerate my sister for so many moons? She had certainly beaten him into submission. "Mhmm. C'mon sis, I need to organize some patrols." -- Copperfang
Dotkit sneezed again, pathetically.-Dot
The red deputy ducked out of the nursery, leaving his former apprentice's kits behind in the care of Blossomfield. Copperfang glanced around camp, reminding himself that they needed to secure the borders after the attack that killed his predecessor. He cringed when he remembered the smallness of his clan, how they lacked so many warriors... But the nursery is full, and there are several apprentices. Soon, StormClan will be strong again. -- Copperfang
Nettlepaw dashed up to her mentor. “Can we go training! Now! I want to be a warrior quick so I can protect the clan!” She meowed. Well, really she wanted to be a warrior REAL quick because of the million kits in the nursery- and didn’t want the apprentices den to be crowded. But she was determined to be a warrior quick, even at 8-9 moons now.-Nettlepaw
Ratpaw streached and approched his mentor/leader Coldstar "Well i want to get training as hard as i can! Can i learn how to fight? or hunt? or climb? or...." --Ratpaw
"Patience," the solemn deputy responded to his apprentice in his typical monotone, flicking his rust-colored tail to push his apprentice a hair back so he could have his space. "A good warrior is never rash and never rushes into a situation. As deputy, I need to make sure that I send out patrols to secure our borders." -- Copperfang
Coldstar dipped her head to Ratpaw. While her heart was filled with grief, she knew she had to train her apprentice. She turned to Ratpaw. "We can go hunting and freshen up on your skills." - Coldstar
Nettlepaw let out a sigh of annoyance. “Then can we train?” She asked. “I wanna be deputy too! Just like you!” She meowed her chest swelling with pride she fluffed it out and tried to stand taller than she was.—Nettlepaw
Maybe if you ask nicely. Copperfang bit back the comment, for he was tired of countless moons of being similarly pushed around by his sister. "Yes, we can train after I finish my other duties." Copperfang finished before making his way past his apprentice and angling his ears towards the warriors. Might as well kill two birds with one stone. "Wavespirit, Lavendertail, and Twigpaw the three of you are joining myself and Nettlepaw on a border patrol." -- Copperfang
Foxkit rolled over to the prey pile, and picked up a fat mouse. -Foxkit
Amberkit rolled over with him, and took a bite of the ouse. -Amberkit
Rolling over to her siblings, Fiercekit ripped off half the mouse to eat by herself. -Fiercekit
Blind and deaf, the newborn kitten was disturbed by the sudden disappearance of faint warmth when his deceased mother was taken away to be prepared for vigil. Charcoalkit parted his tiny jaws to release a weak yet high-pitched mewl of protest before huddling closer to Dotkit and Badgerkit for a source of warmth. -- Charcoalkit
Badgerkit let out out a squeak of surprise as her brother came to huddle closer to her and Dotkit, but she huddled up against him and Dotkit, nonetheless. - Badgerkit
"Oh star clan thank you Coldstar!" Ratpaw
Coldstar murmured and headed out. So many responsibilities as a leader... Sometimes she wanted to just push them away. She thought about that as she walked through the forest with Ratpaw. Soon the scent of prey drifted toward them, and Coldstar motioned for Ratpaw to crouch down. - Coldstar
Lavendertail padded out with her patrol and Twigpaw. - Lavendertail
Nettlepaw leaped to her paws and dashed out of camp.-Nettlepaw
As Coldstar padded through the forest, her thoughts flitted to Marshfang. - Coldstar
Nettlelaw giggled as s saw Twigpaw. “I bet I’m gonna catch more prey and feed the clan all the way through leafbare! The other clans will totally be begging for the prey I catch!”-Nettlepaw
