WillowClan/12

Dewshine bumped Flameheart’s side. “Say, shall you and Dawnrise attend this hunting patrol too?” She said with an accent. Mothfeather giggled.-Moth
Mosskit darted out of the nursery, feeling a burst of confidence. He looked around, and began sniffing around. - Mosskit
"Wait really!" Dawnrise said this was the first time someone other than Shadowhollow talked to her and actully paid attanintion to her  Dawns eyes glittered Dewshine and Mothfeather were her saviors --Dawnrise
Dewshine purred. “Of course!” Mothfeather nodded. “I think we need a break from these toms.”-Moth
Dawnrise froze speachless --Dawnrise
Flame dipped her head to her former Master before turning to the other she-cats. “Um sure. I have nothing else to do I guess.” Maybe I can find that tom and teach him a lesson. Plus have fun.—Flameheart
"Uh yea i will come!" --Dawnrise
Mothfeather grinned. “Race y’all to Skytree! Bet I’ll climb the tree first!” And she dashed out of camp. Dewshine shook her head. “Ugh. New warriors.... and grinned. Not if I get their first!”-Dew
Dawnrise sprinted towards Mothfeather What is skytree!? --Dawnrise
Flame grinned at leaped over the barrier. She zipped trough the trees and saw the Skytree, but the other she-cats were near. She pushed force until she spotted a blackbird. Not slowing down, she hooked her jaws into the bird and whired around, heading to the tree once more.—Flameheart
Dewshine quickly started climbing, though Mothfeather was faster and at the mid way Dewshine huffed as she started to slow down, though Mothfeather pulled one more time before getting to the highest branch.—Dew
Flame leaped with her prey in her jaws. She saved time by going from branch to branch. She went past Dawnrise and Dewshine, but Mothfeather already was laughing at them. “Hey you are faster but you might not be stronger!” She battered at Mothfeather.—Flameheart
Mothfeather shrugged. “I’m way faster than most of the warriors!” Though Dewshine knew she has an outgoing nature and that has defined her as a warrior. She finally arrived and sighed “whoa! Look! It’s the sunset!” She meowed.-Dew
Flame looked as the sun was swallowed by land. The last rays made her eyes glow and her fur look like blazing fire. She breathed and closed her eyes.—Flameheart
"Thank you for inviting me." --Dawnrise said looking at the sunset --dawnrise
Quilllstar enjoyed watching the sun set over the lake with Danita pressed into his side. His warrior was right, he had to get back and pick the next deputy. But...he had until moonhigh. A few more moments with his newly announced mate wouldn't hurt, right? -- Quillstar
Scorchclaw saw Swiftshadow finishing cleaning Wolf. “Yes Scorchclaw?” Scorchclaw greeted his former mentor. “I just wanted to see how you were doing.” Swiftshadow blinked. “I am fine, although I do miss Brambleheart.” Scorchclaw touches her ear with his nose. “I am sure he is watching and waiting for you.” The spotted she-cat sighed. “I hope so.” Scorchclaw smiled before padding away.—Scorchclaw and Swiftshadow
​Ravenclaw dropped the prey at Forestfire and shared prey with her. “I have never been so hungry before!“ Ravenclaw puedes at Forestfire’s comment, glancing oddly at Rivergaze.—Ravenclaw and Forestfire
Stormsong settled on the grass, curling her tail around her paws. So much had happened since The DarkMasters disbanded, the vicious battle, and the events that led up to where she sat now. She glanced around camp, observing the bustle and hustle of her Clanmates. In an odd way, it was good to be back. She loved her kits more than anything, and despite it being two moons, she still mourned Nightfire and Blossom. Her heart still ached and she still experienced flashbacks, but within all that Flameheart and Scorchclaw were helping her heal from her grief, helping her find her place in WillowClan once again. But there was still something worrying her. Ember and Gale... Where were they? She prayed to StarClan that Bass was taking care of them... - Stormsong
Wolf saw Stormsong, and padded over to his mother, hesitantly. He hadn’t spoken to her ever since she had left WillowClan. - Wolf
Stormsong looked down at the dark gray tom-kit. "Hello, Wolf," she mewed softly. "How are you?" Love warmed her heart along with a pang of guilt. I shouldn't have left you - Stormsong
“Good.” He said, feeling small. “I missed you.” He pressed against her, closing his eyes. - Wolf
Stormsong felt warmth spread through her. Her kits loved at at last... - Stormsong
Stonetooth found that Riverstone was asleep after mourning for the loss of her mentor. The dark gray tom backed out of the warrior's den to leave her be, and instead stumbled upon Ashbreeze with her pair of kittens. He offered a small smile, noticing that Cinderkit had tucked herself shyly behind her mother once more. "Afternoon, Ashbreeze." Stonetooth greeted before he slowly seated himself on the ground, sore leg jutting out awkwardly from his form. Leopardkit peered up at the tom curiously. "Why's your leg like that?" -- Ashbreeze, Stonetooth, & Leopardkit (WC)
Mosskit, who was back after a few seconds of looking around the camp, sat up, yawning, and looked around. - Mosskit
Sunnyshine padded across camp, her shoulders hunched. She spotted Spiderfang and raised her tail in greeting. The cream-and-brown tabby warrior trotted toward her. "Hey," he mewed. "Want to go hunting?" Sunnyshine nodded and the pair headed into the forest. - Sunnyshine
"Hey!" Cinderkit squeaked at her brother as she peeked from around Ashbreeze's hock to squint accusingly at her littermate. "It's not a nice thing to point out flaws, Leopardkit!" Oh- whoops! Did she just call Stonetooth "flawed"? Well, she didn't mean it like that... The she-kit recoiled to sit back behind her mother's hind leg, embarrassed for what she had said. "It's fine." Stonetooth meowed earnestly, glancing down at his leg. "I had an accident when I was an apprentice. I broke it." -- Stonetooth & Cinderkit
Leopardkit leaned forward to give the warrior's leg a curious sniff before his blue gaze darted over to his embarrassed sister. "Well, I think that scars are cool." Leopardkit pointed out before looking to his mother approvingly. Wolfshade had been passing by, and found his eyes narrowing into a pair of slits as he ventured into the depths of the warrior's den. Of course you do. You were born with the purpose of creating nothing but suffering and anguish. You are just like your father, stupid furball. -- Wolfshade & Leopardkit (WC)
Mosskit saw Stonetooth with Leopardkit and Cinderkit. A warrior! He thought. Hesitantly, he padded over to them. - Mosskit
Sunnyshine trotted through the forest, inhaling the scents of grass and greenery. Spiderfang padded by her side. - Sunnyshine
Cinderkit found bravery in her brother, and began to edge closer to Stonetooth and the wide-eyed Leopardkit. "But brother," she protested as she inched closer, a large frown across her little face. "...I don't want you to get scarred, I love you!" Cinderkit proceeded to press herself against Leopardkit into a bundle of kitten fuzz, causing her littermate to purr harshly. "I love you too, Cindy, but all the cool warriors have scars!" The tomkit tried to explain, looking to Stonetooth for approval. "...Right?" -- Leopardkit (WC) & Cinderkit
Mosskit finally gathered all of his courage and went up to Stonetooth. “Hi.” He said. - Mosskit
Stormsong watched Mosskit, curious as to what the kit was up to. - Stormsong
The gray warrior twitched his whiskers in amusement. "Well, I'd hope that I'm cool, but no- the scars don't make the warrior. A good warrior fights for his clan, not for himself- scars or no scars." Stonetooth attempted to lecture the pair of kits before he glanced over at Mosskit, and noticed that he was attracted more attention. They're multiplying! The warrior never really was around kits much- he was reserved and typically found in the company of Riverstone. "Oh, uh...hello?" He greeted the new furball. -- Stonetooth
Mosskit wasn’t really sure what to do. He waved his tail in the air. “I’m Mosskit!” - Mosskit
Stormsong smiled, feeling relaxed as she watched the antics of her Clanmates. - Stormsong
"I'm Cinderkit!!" Apparently, Ashbreeze's daughter found herself much more comfortable in the company of other kits, seeing that she immediately blossomed into a social butterfly. "I like moss, and dust, and little beetles, and sometimes I like rain!" She began to go off on a tangent before Leopardkit rolled his eyes and returned his attention to the warrior. "I'm Stonetooth." The warrior responded before glancing back down at Leopardkit, who appeared to have a question. "So, warriors defend the whole clan? Does...that include stinky elders?" -- Cinderkit, Leopardkit, Stonetooth
From a distance with her head on her paws, Birdsong watched the gray warrior longingly. If only he returned my feelings... The red-furred warrior thought to herself glumly before she turned to face away from Stonetooth. It was then that she noticed Windbird beside, and struck up a conversation with the silver tabby as a distraction. -- Birdsong
Mosskit cocked his head at Cinderkit, feeling a bit more confident. “The rain is fun!” He said. “But it’s hard to catch rain droplets in my mouth.” - Mosskit
Stonetooth twitched his pale whiskers in amusement at Leopardkit's comment. "Yes, even the stinky, grouchy elders. Warriors defend every member of the clan, from the biggest down to the smallest." The warrior paused to lick the paw pad that orginally had a thorn stuck in it a few days prior. Leopardkit, meanwhile, snickered at Cinderkit. "Cindy doesn't catch rain on her tongue- she catches it on her face." His sister squeaked in response. "Hey, that might be true, but that doesn't mean it's not fun!" -- Stonetooth, Cinderkit, Leopardkit
Mosskit squeaked in laughter. “That’s what Frozenkit does sometimes.” He said. - Mosskit
Stormsong laughed at Mosskit trying to catch rain droplets on her tongue. The water was cool on the gray warrior's fur, and she was glad for the sensation. - Stormsong
"I'd rather wear the rain than eat it." Cinderkit declared in an authoratative tone to make her point and not feel like such a mouse-brain. She turned to the gray warrior eagerly when she made her comment. "Mister, do you swim?" Stonetooth looked down at the dappled kitten in surprise, tongue poking out from between his lips as he was caught in the middle of licking his paw. "Oh, I do sometimes." -- Cinderkit & Stonetooth
Mosskit frowned. “Where do you swim?” - Mosskit
"In the river outside of camp." Stonetooth explained before he continued to lick his sore paw. "Swimming's good in greenleaf, but your kits are too young to go out of camp and swim." Cinderkit frowned and placed her paws on Stonetooth's leg. "But....pleeeeaaase?" -- Stonetooth & Cinderkit
Mosskit jumped up, eagerly. “I bet I could do it!” He said. - Mosskit
Ashbreeze furrowed her brows in concern. "Oh no- no fish-kits yet! No swimming until you're confident apprentices. Your little paws couldn't touch in some of the puddles around camp." The pale queen looked genuinely concerned for the safety of her kittens. Stonetooth smiled to reassure her. "No, I'm not taking you three out of camp. There are plenty of other fun kit games to be had around here." -- Stonetooth & Ashbreeze
Mosskit raised his head. “I bet I could!” He looked around camp, and saw a puddle. “I’ll even swim in that puddle.” He leaped into it, splashing Jaystripe. “Hey!” Snapped the black and white warrior. “Watch it!” - Mosskit and Jaystripe
Cinderkit immediately went to race after Mosskit in order to jump into the puddle as well, but she was quickly stopped by Leopardkit. There was the slightest hint of jealousy and "I'm-your-overprotective-brother" in his eyes. "Don't go running off in puddles with Mosskit, I- we don't know him, Cinderkit!" The sable tomkit tried to convince his sister otherwise, but it only yielded confusion. "...Leopardkit, he lives in the nursery with us." -- Cinderkit & Leopardkit
Mosskit leaped into another puddle, yowling with happiness. - Mosskit
"Well, I-I..." Leopardkit struggled to find another good excuse, but Ashbreeze stepped forward to interrupt their little predicament. "Leopardkit," the queen began softly, wrapping her fluffy tail around her son. "Cinderkit can have other friends." -- Ashbreeze
With the sun having set, Danita and Quillstar returned to camp from their adventure. The spotted tabby awkwardly kept her distance from the leader, unsure of how the clan would react. -- Danita & Quillstar
Scorchclaw turned as he saw Quillstar and Danita coming into camp, acting a little strange in a way. Ah yes they are mates. About time. He grinned at the leader, letting out a small purr that turned into a quiet laugh.—Scorchclaw
Cinderkit proceeded to splash around in the puddle and cover herself in a thin layer of mud, to the point where her leopard-like rosetting was practically impossible to see. She noticed the long-legged Quillstar briefly grooming Danita's ears before he darted towards the high mound. Cinderkit pricked her ears in interest. Maybe he noticed my swimming skills and is making me an apprentice a whole 5 moons early! -- Cinderkit
Leopardkit frowned at his mother's comment. But...I want to keep my sister safe. The dark sable tomkit thought gloomily before he turned away from his splashing sister. He sighed softly before he quietly sat himself beside Ashbreeze. -- Leopardkit (WC)
Howlkit snarled at a bug as it scurried up the Willow Tree. "That's right!" He yelled. "Run for your life!" -- Howlkit
The dark rosetted tom's eyes darted towards Howlkit, who looked like a madman. Leopardkit immediately glanced back at his sister, feeling his toes curl in protest. I don't like my sister being around these cats. She might get torn to bits! He tensed his jaw as he did his best to hold himself back, causing Ashbreeze to cast him a concerned glance. -- Leopardkit (WC)
Howlkit clawed at the beetle and managed to get some beetle guts on his paw. He spotted Leopardkit nearby and eagerly trotted up to him, holding out his paw. "Hey look at this!" He said, beaming with pride. "I killed that beetle all by myself!" -- Howlkit
Leaping onto the mound, Quillstar summoned his clan with a loud yowl that echoed across camp. He sat with his tail neatly wrapped around his speckled paws, eyes eventually drifting in the direction of Danita. The young spotted warrior sat at the front of the crowd, gaze resting kindly on her mate. She looks so lovely, even from up here.... Quillstar thought to himself with a soft purr. I wonder if we'll ever have kits of our own? -- Quillstar
Morningglade trotted up to the clanmound eagerly, the first to arrive. "Hey Quillstar!" She yelled from below, grinning. -- Morningglade
Mosskit grinned at Cinderkit, splashing her, and then looked up at Quillstar. So weird. Why is his leader name Quillstar if his warrior name was Shadowchaser? - Mosskit
Scorchclaw sat near Morningglade, seeing Swiftshadow near the nursery. They changed amused faces at each other. Hey where is Flame? And Dewshine? And Dawnrise? And Mothfeather......?—Scorchclaw
Jaystripe frowned, and padded over to Scorchclaw. “Have you seen Mothfeather? Or come to think of, Flameheart, Dewshine, and Dawnrise as well.” He said. “Basically all the she-cats.” - Jaystripe
Juniperberry yawned. She'd been feeling rather exhausted lately, drained you might say. Oh gosh kits, please hurry up! She thought. -- Juniperberry
Scorchclaw shook his head. “None of our crushes are here.” He joked.—Scorchclaw
Jaystripe grinned. “Guess they just want to get away from us toms for awhile.” - Jaystripe
Cinderkit's pastel eyes gleamed as she stared up at her leader and her imagination ran wild. Maybe he's making me deputy, because I'm so good at swimming in the puddles! I bet he'll give me the name 'Cinderpuddle'... -- Cinderkit
Quillstar watched the cats below gather. First, he'd start with the apprentice ceremony, although it appeared that...not all the planned mentors were in camp. -- Quillstar
Scorchclaw queitly chuckled. “Yeah. We stupid toms.”—Scorchclaw
Morningglade looked at Quillstar with shining eyes. Maybe I'll get to be a mentor! -- Morningglade
The tall leader glanced down at the eager-eyed kittens after he waved his tail in hello to Morningglade. He couldn't believe that Ashbreeze's litter was almost a moon old already... Some of the mentors were missing, but if he kept the kits waiting any longer, the might just explode from excitement. It wouldn't be fair to the little furballs. "Howlkit, Flowerkit, Petalkit, Wolf, and Crow, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Howlpaw, Flowerpaw, Petalpaw, Wolfpaw, and Crowpaw. Your mentors will be Ravenclaw, Thunderflame, Morningglade, Flameheart, and Shadowhollow, respectively." He was sure that Scorchclaw or Swiftshadow would tell Flameheart the news when she returned to camp. Yet, Quillstar wasn't quiet finished- he still had one last important announcement to make... -- Quillstar
Windbird shifted beside her brother, scowling that Thunderflame got an apprentice before her. "Well...I still hope Wolfshade gets picked as deputy- he knocked a fang right out of one of those foxes!" -- Windbird
Stormsong purred hard, her heart swelling with pride. Her beautiful kits-no apprentices! Although a pang of sadness crept into her heart as she thought of Gale and Ember... She tried to push it away and focus on the positive! She raised her muzzle to the sky, chanting her children's new names. - Stormsong
Morningglade bit her lip to keep from squealing. Her own apprentice! Eeeeeeeeeeeee! She touched noses with Petalpaw, and grinned at her eagerly. "I promise." She whispered. "You'll become the best warrior ever!" -- Morningglade
Howlpaw rolled his eyes. Ravenclaw was fine, but he wanted Shadowchaser! -- Howlkit
The leader waved his tail for some respectful silence. "It is with a heavy heart that I remind WillowClan that we lost our deputy, Rainsplash, during the onslaught of foxes. With that being said, it is time that I select a new deputy to guide our beloved clan." Quillstar glanced over the crowd of hopeful cats, looking for his cadidate. His ears twitched at the whispers of "Wolfshade"- were they really hoping that he'd pick a warrior without an apprentice? But...I don't care if he "knocked out a tooth". The tom thought to himself flatly before his eyes settled on a familiar gray pelt. -- Quillstar
Scorchclaw looked around for Flameheart, but she was nowhere in sight. He sighed as Wolfpaw looked desperately for her.—Scorchclaw
((Who is Ravenclaw mentoring?))-Rowan
Juniperberry scooted out of the medicine den, trying to hide her heavily pregnant belly. -- Juniperberry
His first choice had been Swiftshadow for her experience, but he wasn't certain if the she-cat would be interested in the title of deputy since the sudden loss of her mate. Riverstone also seemed like a good idea, but she, too, was heavily grieving over a recent loss. "I say these words before StarClan, so that the spirit of Rainsplash may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of WillowClan is Stonetooth." -- Quillstar
Stonetooth stumbled over his damaged leg when Quillstar said his name as the choice of deputy. He could feel the hot, hateful glare of Wolfshade on his pelt, boring into his flesh and bone. It was a challenge- if he accepted Quillstar's offer, the spiky-furrred Wolfshade would surely kill him. ...I won't let him win. Stonetooth thought as he gritted his teeth. "...I accept." -- Stonetooth
Stonetooth?! Aspensoul's eyes widened. Why him?! -- Aspen
Stormsong let out a purr, so pleased to see Stonetooth being chosen as deputy. He's a great and capable warrior, she thought. He'll make WillowClan proud. - Stormsong
Before he could mentally process everything going around, Stonetooth found Riverstone slamming into him out of excitement. "CONGRATS!" His sister screeched joyfully, despite the she-cat having been mourning over Rainsplash but moments before. "I'm so proud to be your sister!" -- Riverstone
Swiftshadow smiled at the new deputy.—Swiftshadow
Scorchclaw yowled, “Stonetooth! Stonetooth! Stonetooth!”—Scorchclaw
As the crowd erupted into cheers, Stormsong wove her way through the cats. She stopped in front of Stonetooth, dipping her head respectfully to the new deputy. "Congratulations," she mewed, smiling. - Stormsong
Ravenclaw gaped as Forestfire purred bear him. “I got an apprentice!”—Forestfire and Ravenclaw
Perhaps he was often quiet and reserved, but he loved his sister no doubt. Stonetooth chuckled under his breath, shoving the gray tabby she-cat away with a white paw. "I'm proud to be your brother." He smiled whole-heartedly before cuffing Riverstone around the ears. "But now I'm covered in Riverstone-slobber." Ew. Riverstone snickered under her breath and scuttled off elsewhere before the newly named deputy turned to Stormsong. "Thank you." -- Stonetooth
"You deserve it." Stormsong surpressed another smile and moved away through the crowd, searching for her kits. - Stormsong
The deputy rubbed a paw against his eye, trying to get a Riverstone-hair out of it. "Oh- congrats on your kits becoming apprentices." Stonetooth responded before he finally freed his eye of the irritating hair. -- Stonetooth
Wolfshade slowly backed off, his fur bristling more than usual. I'm sick of this. The dark tabby thought as his flexed his claws. If WillowClan will not respect me through my loyalty, then they will respect me by means of fear. -- Wolfshade
Stormsong called over her shoulder, "Thank you!" before padding away. - Stormsong
Wolfpaw looked around for Flameheart but she was nowhere in sight. He sighed. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flameheart sighed. “We better get back.” She grinned. “But we can do it tomorrow if you girls are up for it.” The she-cats hopped off the tree and hunted. A few moments later they padded back to camp.—Flameheart
Cinderkit frowned as she sat in her puddle of mud. "I thought I was going to be made deputy." She sounded honestly hurt, and slumped over with a small huff of protest. -- Cinderkit
Wolfpaw ran up to Flameheart. “There you are! I’m your new apprentice! Quillstar just made me one!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flameheart widened her eyes and smiled as her friends congratated her. “Are you sure? Or did you become crazy cause of Rainsplash’s death?”—Flameheart
Swiftshadow purred, “Cinderkit you aren’t even an apprentice!”—Swiftshadow
Wolfpaw shook his head, smiling. “Nope! It’s true!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Mosskit flicked his tail. “Don’t worry. Wolfshade didn’t even become deputy!” - Mosskit
"Yeah, I'm not an apprentice anymore." She was doing her best to convince the senior warrior that she truly was a warrior. "I'm Cinderstream- honest! I'm not a kit, I'm just...small." -- Cinderkit
With Quillstar done holding ceremonies, Stonetooth decided that it was time to send out the dusk patrol. He wanted to go on it personally- and he didn't want to bring Wolfshade along. The deputy glanced around to look for who he should bring. Probably not the new mentors and apprentices, they'll tour the territory on their own time. -- Stonetooth
“Yeah! And I’m . . . Uhhh . . . Moss . . . F- W- Pelt! Yeah. Mosspelt!” - Mosskit
Swiftshadow cuffed the she-kit around the ears. “You can’t fool me Cinderstream!“ She joked.—Swiftshadow
Flameheart didn’t know how to react. Sure he was my DarkMaster apprentice, but he looked more happy with Rainsplash........He must disappointed to be with me.—Flameheart
Scorchclaw nudged Jaystripe. “Looks like our crushes have returned.”—Scorchclaw
Twilightbreese and Streakedfur walked up to Stonetooth. Twilightbreeze dipped her head and meowed," Congrats! You will make a great deputy. Streakedfur did the same. --Twilightbreeze and Streakedfur
Stonetooth offered the pair of younger warriors a small smile. "Thanks," the deputy then returned his focus to leading the dusk patrol. I need to take cats that weren't overexerted from the fox attack. The others need their rest. -- Stonetooth
Morningglade spotted Petalpaw sitting and yawing outside the apprentice den, and she eagerly trotted over to her. "Hey Petalpaw! Are you ready for some tradining? I can show you the entire territory! Or we could practice hunting? Or fighting? I don't really like fighting. What do you think?" -- Morningglade
"You must've hit yoru head." Cinderkit decided with a small nod. "I've been Cinderstream for several moons now." The rosetted she-cat was yet to move from her mud puddle, although as night slowly began to set in, the water grew chilly. -- Cinderkit
Leopardkit sat back with his mother as the queen chatted with Danita, something about "love" and "mates". This conversation is disgusting. The tomkit decided after wrinkling his nose, rising to his paws and inching away from his mother and her friend. -- Leopardkit
Swiftshadow purred, “If you say so Cinderstream. Let us get you cleaned thought and ready for the night. You have to assign the patrols tomorrow.” Swiftshadow picked the she-kit and started to clean her fur.—Swiftshadow
"Mom probably should have named me 'Muddykit'." Cinderkit purred unknowingly, causing the chatter of several warriors to immediately stop and fall into awkward silence. Muddyfang, the kit's father, the traitor to WillowClan...the cat the kitten was yet to know about. Ashbreeze rufled her fur out of nervousness, and approached her daughter quietly as Windbird and Eaglestrike sent them a glare. "Cinderkit, sweetie," the queen began nervously, flicking an ear towards the safety of the nursery. "...I think it's time that we go to bed." -- Cinderkit & Ashbreeze
Swiftshadow dipped her head and left.—Swiftshadow
Crowpaw grumbled under her breath as she spotted Stormsong she wrinkled her snought and looked away as she looked for her mentor. (Who?)-Crowpaw
Flowerpaw bounded over to Petalpaw. “I wanna come! We should go hunting!”-Flower
Iceagle finally took her kits out of the nursery, yes all wobbling and tripping but they where still kits and this was a good opportunity for them to venture out. She purred as she saw Frozenkit flinch away from the rain.-Ice
((Crow's mentor is Shadowhollow)) Thunderflame turned and returned his attention to his apprentice: Flowerpaw. Something about her seemed familiar, but he didn't quite understand what it was. Oh well, the silent tom thought to himself before flicking his tabby tail. "We need to tour the territory first." -- Thunderflame
"Oh, ok, momma." Cinderkit responded, shuffling after her mother. She tucked her tail between her legs and retreated faster when she felt Wolfshade's cruel gaze resting on her. -- Cinderkit
Petalpaw bounced up. "Ooh, hunting, please!" she squealed. - Petalpaw
Flowerpaw rna over time Thunderflame. “Can we hunt with Petalpaw!?”-Flower
Wolfpaw nudged Flameheart. “Don’t worry. I wouldn’t want anyone else to be my mentor other than you.” He assured her. - Wolfpaw
Jaystripe grinned at Scorchclaw. “It looks like it.” - Jaystripe
Scorchclaw batted at Jaystripe. “We should take them out one day.”—Scorchclaw
​Flame searched Wildpaw before shrugging. “Fine fine. I am proud to be your mentor.” Darkening her eyes and softly growling, “Like in The DarkMasters.” She smirked then asked, “Now do you want to train at night or sleep?”—Flameheart
“okay....” Flowerpaw muttered. “Can we do it with Wolfpaw and Petalpaw!?”-Flowerpaw
"Yes, we can take them along." Thunderflame agreed quietly. -- Thunderflame
Quillstar leaped off the mound to join Danita after she finished speaking with Ashbreeze. The spotted warrior rubbed her cheek against the leader's chin as he approached. "You're getting better at making announcements." -- Danita
Wolfpaw cocked his head. “I don’t know.” He said. “I guess both.” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Cinderkit retreated into the nursery with her mother, sitting at the pale queen's paws as she finished grooming her mud-covered daughter. Ashbreeze paused, perking her ears as she glanced around for a familiar sable pelt. "Where's your brother, Cinderkit?" -- Cinderkit & Ashbreeze
Flame cuffed Wildpaw around the ears. “Ok rabbit, which one?” She purred.—Flameheart```
Wolfpaw shrugged. “I don’t know. I guess train?” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Petalpaw waved her feathery tail. "Yay!" she cried. - Petalpaw
Flame circled Wolf. “What’s wrong? Lost your inner wolf?”—Flameheart
Wolfpaw hissed, unsheathing his claws. “Never!” He said. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe head-butted Scorchclaw. “Yeah, we really should. Show them that toms can be cool, too!” He exclaimed. He then glared at Aspensoul. “As long as he doesn't get in the way!” - Jaystripe
“yay!” Flowerpaw cried as she dashed over to the entrance of camp. “C’mon slow poke!”-Flower
Mothfeather smiled, Flowerpaw reminded her of herself.-Moth
"I'm coming, I'm coming..." Thunderflame yawned lazily. I'm not a night owl. The warrior thought to himself pitifully as he trudged after Flowerpaw. -- Thunderflame
Scorch nudged Jaystripe. “Sure! Have fun with him!” With that he bounded away.—Scorchclaw
Flame hissed, “Then what happened?”—Flameheart
“Nothing.” Growled Wolfpaw. “Nothing at all.” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe frowned. “Hey, come back!” He ran after Scorchclaw. - Jaystripe
"Oh, uhh..." Cinderkit glanced around for her brother, but she could not find him in the nursery. "I don't know where Leopardkit went." The rosetted she-kit admitted with a small frown. -- Cinderkit
Petalpaw felt excitement bubble up. She was going outside! - Petalpaw
Leopardkit had seen how Wolfshade was glaring at his sister and his mother, and he didn't like it- not one bit. So the sable tomkit marched up to the warrior as he sat in the shadow cast down by moonlight, facing the spiky-furred tom with his hackles bristling. "I don't like how you glare at my sister! She hasn't done anything wrong- so stop it." -- Leopardkit
Icegaze followed the voice of Leopardkit and scowled at Wolfshade. Why was the clan wanting him to be leader? Leaders should respect all clanmates despite their backstories. She bristled. Pulling her kits closer to her.-Ice
Mosskit scowled as he was pulled back by his mother, but he eventually snuggled up to her. - Mosskit
Dewshine sighed as she padded into the nursery to clean the moss until a certain sound of a distant mutter broke her ears and she dropped the moss and ran out of camp to where she heard the laughs. (No follow. It’s HIM dawnpaw)-Dew
Icegaze lowered her gaze to waver over her kits. “Don’t trust Wolfshade ever, don’t ever even speak to him. He has the looks and personality of a sly fox.” She muttered.-Ice
"Big words for something no bigger than a mouse." Wolfshade spoke in a low tone of voice, his words echoing with warning as he rose up to force Leopardkit to cower backwards. "I glare at your family because I don't like them. You know nothing of what you are, kit." -- Wolfshade
Eaglestrike noticed that Birdsong was looking a little down and out, so he seated himself beside the red-furred warrior to offer himself as company. He always found her quite pretty- then again, he thought the same of most she-cats. "You look like you need someone to talk to," -- Eaglestrike
Mosskit noddded. “Okay.” He said. He then hesitated before asking, “Where is our father?” Come to think of it, he had never heard of his father, or seen him. - Mosskit
 Icegaze growled lowly in Wolfshade’s direction. “Oh and im Sure we know who YOU are. Running away from your own clan as Ripplepool might’ve mentioned.” She growled. “Lay off the kit. He’s nothing like his family’s past. Only their future.”-Ice
Mosskit blinked, and growled at Wolfshade, baring his small teeth. - Mosskit
For a moment, the kitten found himself intimidated by Wolfshade- anyone would be. But he was young, foolish, and determined to keep his family safe, even if he was a tiny tot at the ripe age of 1 moon old. Leopardkit took a daring step forward, revealing his pitifully tiny kitten teeth. "I do know what I am- I'm a warrior!" -- Leopardkit
Wolfshade twitched his whiskers. "You're a product of destruction, of a traitor. Your father ran out on Willowclan like a coward to support ScarClan as a spy." At his words, Leopardkit's eyes grew round with terror. -- Wolfshade
Mapleblaze yowled in agreement to Wolfshade’s mentioning. “And your blood isn’t going to be. A good line.” She growled.
Icegaze sent a worrying glance to Ashbreeze. “Ashbreeze!” She whispered.-Ice
"Traitors breed traitors." Windbird mumbled in agreement between licks of her pawpad. Leopardkit felt his heart pounding in his chest. "I...you don't know what I'm going to be!" -- Leopardkit (WC)
"Stop it!" Ashbreeze barked as she jumped in front of her son, pulling him back with a dainty paw to glare Wolfshade in the eyes. The spiky-furred warrior remained in his place, amber eyes narrowed into a cool, judgemental glare. "I know what you are, too, Ashbreeze." Wolfshade spat flatly. "Go ahead- gut me like how your father slaughtered countless innocent lives under the influence of Dark Forest powers. It runs in your blood- just as it does in the blood of your spawn. Those furballs will be filleting cats like fish by the time they're six moons old. It's what they're meant to do. How can they not, when their bloodline is blessed by the powers of the Dark Forest?" -- Wolfshade
Mosskit pricked his ears. Huh? They were Dark Forest cats? But they were so nice! He nudged Icegaze. “Who is my father?” He repeated. - Mosskit
Icegaze growled and leaped, slapping Wolfshade. “Shut that mouth or yours or else I’ll kill you!” She hissed. “Threatening kits is no way of a respectable warrior as some others THINK you should be leader. Hah! That’ll never be!”-Ice
Stormsong watched, her eyes narrowed. She never really liked Wolfshade... - Stormsong
Sunnyshine returned to camp with Spiderfang. They dropped prey on the fresh-kill-pile. Sunnyshine noticed Icegaze and Wolfshade. "What's happening?" she cried. - Sunnyshine
"Wolfshade!" The empowered voice came from across camp- it was Quillstar, stalking over on tensed, long limbs. The leader stood before the spiked warrior, who snorted distastefully. "Get back in line before I put you there." The leader finished, forcing his hackles flat and seeing to it that Wolfshade returned to the depths of the warrior's den. -- Quillstar
Sunnyshine watched, a feeling twisting in her gut. She glared at Quillstar. Wolfshade would be a better leader than you! she thought. - Sunnyshine
Ashbreeze quickly hauled Leopardkit back to the nursery so that she could comfort both her kittens at once. Cinderkit had broken down into sobbing with her tail tucked between her little legs. "I- momma, what does he mean? I don't like the Dark Forest, they're scary- I don't wanna go there!" -- Ashbreeze & kits
Icegaze hissed as she gave him a warning glance before wandering and glancing at Cinderkit and Leopardkit. Where these kits meant to bri;g destruction from the Darkforest here? Or was Wolfshade just cause ing trouble. She sighed before turning to Mosskit. “Your father..... lets speak in the nursery.”-Ice
Swiftshadow stood in front of Wolfshade. “You will never be deputy if you act like this. Leave the kits and queens alone NOW.”—Swiftshadow
Scorchclaw turned his head, amusement in his eyes. “Yes?”—Scorchclaw
Flame lifted her chin. “That is the apprentice I trained.“ She flicked her tail and they slipped away in the night.—Flameheart
Overtime, Cinderkit managed to cry herself to sleep, pressed against Ashbreeze's flank with the queen's tail wrapped around her. However. Leopardkit...he was in a different place. The small tom stood by the nursery, staring outside blankly at nothing in particular. "Leopardkit, sweetheart?" Ashbreeze eventually spoke up in a hushed whisper. "Are you alright?" -- Ashbreeze
"You'll all see." Wolfshade announced in an exhausted sigh as he turned and sauntered back into the warrior's den. "...Unless I have to make them see." The final comment was directed at himself in a dark whisper, his claws flexed. From outside, Stonetooth cast him a seething glare. I know what's coming. The young deputy thought to himself with his body tensed. Let him bring it to me. -- Wolfshade & Stonetooth
Mosskit followed his mother into the nursery. “Who’s my father?” He asked. - Mosskit
Wolfpaw followed Flame. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe blinked. “What do you mean by have fun with him? I don’t like him!” He hissed. - Jaystripe
Frozenkit frowned as he was shooed into the nursery with the others. Icegaze sighed. “Your father. You need to promise not to tell anyone. Okay?”-Ice
Mothfeather sspotted Stonetooth. “Hi Stonetooth! How are you!? Congrats on bein’ deputy! That’s so good! You really deserve it!” She smiled happily.-Moth
Mosskit blinked. “Okay. I promise.” He said. - Mosskit
Mothfeather broke the deputy from his stupor, leading Stonetooth to remove his glare and glance over at the young warrior. "Oh, thank you." He responded quietly. -- Stonetooth
"They look at me and see a monster." Leopardkit finally responded to his mother in a dreadful tone, his head somewhat bowed to communicate his sense of downcast. -- Leopardkit
Icegaze frowned. “He is from a difference clan..” though she added. “That’s the best thing though, it means you’re different than everyone and can do great things than being the same!” Then sighed. “Maybe once we go to the gathering you’ll be apprentices and you can meet him.” She sighed. “Missystone is his name.”-Ice
Mothfeather purred. “what’s it like to be deputy?”-Moth
Frozenkit frowned and squirmed to Cinderkit. “Don’t worry! I don’t see u as a monster!” He squeaked innocently.-Frozen
((That was Leopard, Cinder's asleep)) Ashbreeze frowned at her son. "Come over here, Leopardkit." Silently, the tomkit obeyed and seated himself next to his mother, who licked his cheek affectionately. "It doesn't matter what they see. I see a good tomkit, and I hope you see that as well." -- Ashbreeze & Leopardkit
Stonetooth shrugged his pair of charcoal shoulders. "I don't know...I haven't been deputy for very long." -- Stonetooth
Mosskit’s eyes widened. “Really?” He squeaked. “Why? I want to meet him? Why doesn’t Quillstar know? Why doesn’t the Clan know? Will they hate me if they find out?” He fur bushed out in fear. - Mosskit
 Flame turned her green glowing eyes at Wolf. “You should know how to hunt, so hunt. I will watch you.”—Flameheart
Scorch suddenly remembered Jaystripe wasn’t a Former DarkMaster. “Errrr you wouldn’t understand.”—Scorchclaw
(oh) Icegaze looked to Ashbreeze. “I’ll help them when I can.” She meowed to the queen.-Ice
Wolfpaw nodded. He scented mouse. He stalked it, and pounced on it, killing it swiftly. - Wolfpaw
Mosskit was beginning to get scared. - Mosskit
Jaystripe flicked an ear. “DarkMasters thing?” - Jaystripe
Flame watched from the shadows where Wolf couldn’t scent not see her.—Flameheart
Scorchclaw nodded. “Yep.” He narrowed his eyes. “How did you know?”—Scorchclaw
Frozenkit felt bad for Cinderkit and Leopardkit. It wasn’t fair to be judged for blood and history. It would only take Loyalty as Icegaze always said. ‘It isn’t blood or history, always loyalty’-Frozen
Mosskit nodded in agreement with his brother. “Yeah. You guys are good cats. Wolfshade is just angry that he didn’t become deputy. He’s worse than you’ll ever be.” But what am I supposed to be loyal to? WillowClan? Or Mossystone’s Clan?
He wondered. - Mosskit
But I won't let them pick on my sister- she's not a monster. They can call me a monster, but not her. Leopardkit coudln't resist digging his tiny, sharp claws into the nursery floor. Ashbreeze pulled her tense son closer with a paw. "C'mon Leopardkit, have your rest." -- Leopardkit (WC)
Wolf hid and buried his mouse, before continuing on. He kept his steps light and silent, and his ears pricked, mouth open. He caught another sparrow, and buried it. He then finally scented the sweet scent of vole. He crept forward, and leapt, but it scurried out from under his paws, and hid itself away. “Fox-dung!” He spat. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flame leaped at Wolfpaw, knocking him down. “Too slow.”—Flameheart
Stonetooth went to the warrior's den to go to sleep for the evening. Riverstone had offered to lead the dusk patrol, which was odd- normally she didn't like patrolling borders, only hunting. So sleeping in the warrior's den without his sister to lay on felt...awkward. Empty. I'm worried about her again. -- Stonetooth
Wolfpaw bared his teeth, and instinctively clawed Flame’s shoulder, and leapt to his paws. “I’ll get it next time.” He mumbled, realizing he had clawed her on accident. - Wolfpaw
Jaystripe shrugged. “I figured. After all your mate was the leader, wasn’t she?” - Jaystripe
Frozenkit frowned. “Mosskit, you where named after him. And Reedkit was named after the Swamps.” Reedkit blinked a few before yawning.-Frozen
Leopardkit obediently laid down next to his sister at his mother's belly, curling in a ball and resting his head on his mother's flank. He slowly allowed his pale eyes to droop close, although he flexed his tiny claws once more before he fell asleep. If they want a monster...then I'll give them one. -- Leopardkit (WC)
Mosskit nodded. “Yup.” He then looked up at Icegaze. “Why can’t the CLan know about us? If they do will they hate us?” - Mosskit
Scorch bristeled. “Flame isn’t my mate. I don’t know if she feels the same how I feel.” He darkened his eyes. “How did you know the name?”—Scorchclaw
Flame cleaned her wound while Wolf was in front of her.—Flameheart 
Quillstar tried to cool himself down after snapping at Wolfshade and pushing the tom back into his pace. The leader paced mildly with an irritable twitch of his tail, before Danita slowly approached in hopes of helping him calm down. "Those kits are cute, y'know." She commented in hopes of distracting him. "...It'd be nice to have a litter, some day." Her nose was bright red, and the leader looked at her in shock, growing hot underneath his skin. -- Danita
“How do I know the name?” Said Jaystripe. “Well, I think everyone knows it. I was at the battle with Scar. I heard the name mentioned a few times, and it only made sense that it was the name of her group.” He said. - Jaystripe
Wolfpaw looked at Flame. “I’m sorry, Flame.” He said. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Scorch breathed. “Good.” He turned and padded away.—Scorchclaw
Flame raised her eyes from her cleaning, still having her head bent. “Nonsense. I am proud of you.” She muttered, “Clans. But that prophecy wanted me back here.” She pricked her ears as she heard the vole. “Try again.”—Flameheart 
Wolfpaw nodded. “Okay.” He said. He crouched down, and padded lightly towards the vole, keeping his paw steps light, and soundless. It was more aware than before, but Wolfpaw was determined to catch it. He waited, and then lunged, snapping it’s neck. “Yes!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe looked at Scorchclaw quizzically, but didn’t say anything. - Jaystripe
Flame purred, “Good. But next time lift yourself a little so you don’t brush the grass to alert them.“ She flicked her tail and they padded back to camp.—Flameheart 
Ravenclaw mewed, “Howlpaw get rest and we can train tomorrow.” He nodded and curled up beside Forestfire.—Ravenclaw
Wolfpaw nodded. “Okay.” He said. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flame enteres camp with her apprentice beside her. She mewed, “Get rest.” She made sure he was in the apprentices’ den before nodding goodnight to Swiftshadow. She then looked around and padded out of camp.—Flameheart 
Wolfpaw nodded, and padded into the apprentices’ den. He laid down next to his sister, Crowpaw. - Wolfpaw (WC)
"Really? I mean, I-I'd like to have kits some day, too..." Quillstar responded awkwardly as he began to head in the direction of his den for the night. Danita smiled softly before she turned and headed towards the warrior's den. -- Danita & Quillstar
Stonetooth's concern continued to mount when he woke up to find that his sister still hadn't returned to camp, even with the dusk patrol back and asleep. Where are you, Riverstone? The deputy wondered, slowly rising to his paws and quietly limping out of the warrior's den. -- Stonetooth
Birdsong and Eaglestrike were still awake when Stonetooth left the warrior's den. The two stopped their quiet conversation to glance over at the deputy and observe his behavior before they returned to chatting. They had been going on and on with their talking all evening, to the point where neither of them had gone to sleep yet. I like this Eaglestrike guy. The red-furred warrior thought with a small smile. -- Birdsong & Eaglestrike
Ravenclaw stretched as he felt Forestfire leave the den. He blinked sleep from his eyes and padded out to get a quick meal. He looked around for Howlpaw.—Ravenclaw
​Forestfire looked around for something to do. She smiled as she saw Fangflame.—Forestfire
​Flame blinked her eyes as she woke up in the forest. She cleaned her red pelt before going into the forest to hunt.—Flameheart
Scorchclaw woke up, looking for Flame.—Scorchclaw
​Swiftshadow checked that all the kits were ok.—Swiftshadow
Spiderfang hurried to catch up to Sunnyshine. "Hey, what's wrong?" - Spiderfang
Sunnyshine turned to the cream tom. "Nothing," she meowed coolly. - Sunnyshine
Flame padded into camp with prey in her jaws. She nodded a greeting to Stormsong.—Flameheart
Stormsong nodded back. She had such good friends. - Stormsong
Scorchclaw bounded up to Flameheart. “Where have you been? I thought you were in trouble.” Flame twitched her whiskers. “I was hunting.“ Scorchclaw touches noses with her. “Don’t scare me like that.” Flame purred, “Yeah like I meant to scare you mouse-brained.” Scorchclaw nudged her and they went to share freshkil. “Congrats on getting Wolf as your apprentice.“ Flame looked at him. “Did you want Crow?” Scorch sighed. “She was such a good apprentice.” He brightened up his eyes. “But you deserve to be a mentor!” Flame smiled.—Flameheart and Scorchclaw
Spiderfang padded over with Sunnyshine to an open spot in the corner of the camp. "What's up with you?" he asked, his brows creased with worry. Sunnyshine shrugged her gold shoulders. "Nothing. Just traitors being traitors." Spiderfang winced. "What do you mean?" the cream-and-tabby tom asked. - Spiderfang
Flame pricked her ears as he heard the slight voices of Sunnyshine.—Flameheart
Icegaze frowned as she lay her head on her paws. She was nervous about Muddyfang’s kits, right? Wasn’t that what Wolfshade meant? Since, that’s what happened? She sighed as she kept an eye on the kits. It wasn’t her place to judge them though. It was no one’s place. They are just as cat as any.-Icegaze
Wolfpaw came out of his den. “Hey, Flame!” He said, seeing his mentor. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flame shook Sunnyshine away and nodded to her apprentice.—Flameheart
Wolfpaw followed her. - Wolfpaw (WC)
"Don't you know? The former "DarkMasters" have been welcomed back into WillowClan. Traitors! And Stormsong's kits too. Who knows, Flameheart might have a litter of furballs on their way in a moon or so." - Sunnyshine
Mothfeather slipped out of camp and sighed as she walked all the way to Skytree to soak up the sun.-Moth
Flame turned and mewed, “Ok today I want you to catch a rabbit. Remember not to stick to the ground.”—Flameheart
Swiftshadow stomped to her daughter. “SUNNYSHINE! WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU YOUNG LADY?! IF ANY IS BEING A TRATIOR RIGHT NOW ITS YOU! JUDGING YOU CLANMATES IS BAD! GO SOMETHING USEFUL!” She shooed her daughter away.—Swiftshadow
Wolfpaw nodded. “Okay.” He said, and began to sniff around for one. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe padded out of camp, and saw Mothfeather. He sat down beside her. “Hi.” He said. - Jaystripe
Mothfeather paused as she walked. “Oh!” She meowed, surprised. “Hi Jaystripe. I was just gonna take a walk to Skytree and just take a nap ya the top of it, I like when the forest is drying up after the rain and the sun comes out.”-Moth
Spiderfang turned to Swiftshadow as Sunnyshine stomped away. "I'm sorry," he mewed calmly. "She's been having rougher days. I'm not sure what's up." - Spiderfang
Rivergaze suddenly heard this rambling and agreed. Flicking her tail so Wasp can follow her. “Of course this Flameheart is a traitor. Quillstar thinks that just because she kills other cats she can come back. Well I have a whole list of WillowClan cta’s she’s murdered. That squirrel thinks she can slip out of under our paws. But we’ll make her see as Wolfshade as deputy.”-Rivergaze
Wasp nodded slowly. Over the moons, living with The DarkMasters, had changed her. Guilt probed her belly as she realized she still...still hadn't spoken to Lilacpaw ever since... she abandoned her. - Wasp
Rivegaze added in a sneer. “I’m sure Wolfshade will banish those no good kits. I’m sure Muddyfang had a reason for having Dark Forest blooded fiends. Well not in my clan they won’t. Both traitors at heart.” She growled before flicking her tail to Swiftshadow. “Says the she-cat who decided to have half clan kits. You’re technically supporting a murderer and should be supremely punished.”-Rivergaze
Sunnyshine perked her ears and heard Rivergaze's sneering. She padded over. - Sunnyshine
Rivergaze glanced to her aunt. “Oh, and have you seen Flameheart just sticking around everyone she likes? They’re all traitors. Traitors at heart! And of course Flame hasn’t seen Scorchclaw’s mooning!” She hissed. ‘They’ll have kits before they know it.”-Rivergaze
Swiftshadow spat, “That is no daughter of mine! Sunnyshine has nothing bad in her life!” She saw Sunnyshine las away. “Get on a patrol Sunnyshine!”—Swiftshadow
​Flame sulked in the trees watching her apprentice.—Flameheart
“you aren’t the boss of her. Just because you’re her mother she doesn’t have to listen to you of all cats. Heh, I’m pretty sure she isn’t a kit anymore SWIFTshadow.”-Rivergaze
Swiftshadow retorted, “I have every right to talk to her. And I don’t need to listen to you Rivergaze.”—Swiftshadow
​Ravenclaw padded out of the camp with Howlpaw. He sped up as he saw Rivergaze.—Ravenclaw
“well she doesn’t have to listen to you so you’d technically be talking to yourself like the weirdo you are.” Rivergaze sneered back.-River
Swiftshadow snapped, “I can order who I want mouse-brained! She doesn’t need to listen to you.”—Swiftshadow
“well I don’t need to listen to you you useless pile of bones.” Rivergaze retorted before turning to Ravenclaw.-Rivergaze
Swiftshadow glared at the she-cats.—Swiftshadow
​Ravenclaw gulped. “Uh come on Howlpaw le’s hunt.”—Ravenclaw
Rivergaze shrugged. “Just saying. That’s the truth. Flame thinks she’s sneaky but we all know she’s gonna betray the clan again. She’s already betrayed us for making us lose Skyshadow and Stormstreak. and I think what Skyshadow said is she was saved from a badger? I think she should suffer the death she was saved from.” Then suddenly a dark plan formed in her head and she gave Sunnyshine the look.-River
Sunnyshine looked back. - Sunnyshine
Rivergaze shrugged as she padded into the forest. “Wasp-paw you can go now.”-River
Ravenclaw ran.—Ravenclaw
"Hey Flame." Dawnrise said sitting down next to her. --Dawnrise
Wasp padded off. Should I speak to Lilacpaw now? - Wasp
Flame drew her gaze away from Wolfpaw, her ears still focusing. “Greetings Dawnrise.”—Flameheart
"I was wondering if you would like to do what we did yesterday but with our mates?" --Dawnrise
Sunnyshine perked her ears. "What is it?" - Sunnyshine
Flame widened her eyes. “Mates!? Are you and Shadwohollow mates?!” She twitched her tail. “I am not mates with Scorch.”—Flameheart
"Yeah. We have kind of been keeping it a secert until now... I thought you and Scorch were mates?" --Dawnrise
Sunnyshine felt shock ripple through her. "Really?" She paused. "Is that a good idea?" - Sunnyshine
Flame purred, “Congrats! You make a great couple.” She shook her head. “No, I don’t think Scorch has feelings for me.”—Flameheart
“heh. If we don’t want nay traitors in the clan. Of course! We should set it now.” She grinned. “well need to find a badger den and lead flame to it, maybe surrounding it with thorns so she can’t escape without looking like she’d murdered someone in the thorns.” Rivergaze’s heart slowly turned black as coals.-River
"Then why did you bring up Scorch before me?" --Dawnrise
Sunnyshine felt an odd thrill run through her. She sniffed the air. A tangy, pungent smell blew through the breeze. She started to run eastward, her long tail waving. "I smell a badger den!" - Sunnyshine
“great! Don’t tell Quillstar, maybe we can kill him as well for Wolfshade.” She grimaced before getting thorns and setting the trap. “Of course Flame has a heart, we could snag one of Icegaze’s kits and place it there and see if Flame will save it, maybe that stupid furball Frozenkit? You get the thorns and the trap set before the badger wakes up and I’ll get the kit.”-River
Flame topped her head. “What do you mean?”—Flameheart
"I just said with our mates then you said you are not mates with Scorch." --Dawnrise
Rivergaze then entered camp sending a joyous look to Wolfshade. Then going into the nursery as the others where sleeping, well, Icegaze. And the other kits. She nudged Frozenkit. “Want to be a warrior?” He woke up and followed her happily and tiredly. Then at the entrance of camp she grabbed him quickly and ran to the trap.-River
Flame rolled her eyes. “Yeah I am not. But I could bring him along, he is my friend.”—Flameheart
Sunnyshine nodded and ran over to a bramble bush. She bit off a few tendrils of thorns and dragged them over to the entrance of the badger den. She could hear grunting inside, but the badger must have been asleep because the tabby warrior quickly finished the job before it even woke up. She shivered at the sharp thorns. Flameheart was going to have a hard time. Sunnyshine curled her claws. - Sunnyshine
"Well then we could invite him as well." Dawnrise said thinking that Flame ment somthing more. --Dawnrise
Flame shrugged. “Sure.” She smiled as she saw her apprentice kill the rabbit perfectly. “Good job Wolf.”—Flameheart
"Okay. I'm going to ask moth and dew if they want to come." --Dawnrise
“alright. Have the furball.” Rivergaze tossed the kit in front of the hole. “Heh. Move or Make a noise and I’ll shred you.” She hissed to the kit. Frozenkit frowned and shaked, not because he was cold. It was out of pure fear. “Now I think she should get the guest. She peaked inside the den. “A mother and two pups....”-River
Flame purred, “This should be fun. The toms will be a special treat.”—Flameheart
Rivergaze whispered. “You get flame. I’ll wake the badgers when you make a large howl and I’ll watch the kit suffer. I’m sure Flame will survive but soften. And maybe Quillstar’s next. Heh. I’ll hide in the shadows though.”-River
Sunnyshine nodded. She scurried back to camp to get Flameheart. She stopped in front of the she-cat. "Please come with us... Rivergaze and I want to apologize." - Sunnyshine
Rivergaze grinned as she watched Frozenkit she got a branch ready, well, a stick to poke the bear, well, badger. But heh, the cubs where huge and momma was big, Flame couldn’t stand a chance.-River
Flame narrowed her green glowing eyes. “You never even talked to me. There is nothing to apologize for.”—Flameheart
"Someone wants to meet you. Someone you trust." Sunnyshine mewed. - Sunnyshine
Flame twitched her tail. “You changed the subject. You are doing something. Something bad.”—Flameheart
Rivergaze rolled her eyes as she came in panting. “F-Flameheart! We need help! I found a Frozenkit I f don’t of....” she huffed. “A Badgers den! Sunnyshine! You where supposed to get her to help us! We have no time!” She grasped for air as she then turned and fled to where she then woke the Badgers up.-River
Wolfpaw flicked an ear. “You guys are being so loud! You’ll scare all the prey away!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Jaystripe looked up at the Skytree. “I snuck out once and tried to climb to the top.” He purred. “I fell and twisted my paw. I had to hide it from Barkpelt all day, or else I would’ve been doing the elders’ ticks for moons!” - Jaystripe
Flame muttered agreement with her apprentice. “Well then we should get a patrol, not just us three. Sunnyshine you do that.“ She flicked her tail. “Sunnyshine you didn’t tell me this.“ She grew suspicious. “What’s weong with you? Get a patrol!”—Flameheart
The senior warrior drew herself up. "I don't take orders from younger warriors. And we already have a one warrior there already. We came back to help more help. We have to go now, or Frozenkit will die." - Sunnyshine
Wolfpaw blinked. “Why will Frozenkit die? Is he going to get eaten by badgers?” He bristled. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Rivergaze hissed. “Come on! You where the only one around!”-River
Flame spat, “Sunnyshine said you already had a few cats there! If you already have warriors there then I don‘t need to be there!” She turned away with Wolf. “I do listen to suspicious cats.”—Flameheart
"Frozenkit is going to die, Flameheart! We need backup!" - Sunnyshine
Flame retorted, “You already has backup!”—Flameheart
"We had one warrior, Flame. One. Does that look like enough for you?" - Sunnyshine
Wolfpaw thrust himself forward. “I’ll help! Come on, Flame’s not coming, let’s go!” He began to run in the direction they had pointed. - Wolf
Flame snarled, “Wolf come back!” She didn’t know if this was a good thing, but she followed her heart. “Since you useless kits can’t even make sure a kit doesn’t get out of camp nor fight, I will do it Sunnykit and Riverkit.” She followed till she heard Frozenkit and Wolfpaw squeaking and badgers growling. She leaped in the circl, only to see she was trapped. “You traitors!” She turned her wide eyes at the badgers as she guarded Frozenkit and Wolfpaw. She put Frozenkit in Wolfpaw’s jaws and ordered, “Take him back to camp! Go!” She turned back to the badgers.—Flameheart
Ravenclaw caught a glimpse of Flame bristoling and heard something, Rivergaze and Sunnyshine smiling. He frowned and disappeared.—Ravenclaw 
“Flame!” Cried Wolfpaw. He gave Frozenkit to Sunnyshine, and stood beside his mentor, snarling. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flame snarled, “Get back I said.” She picked up her heavy apprentice and flung him over the thorn barrier that was blocking her. She snarled as the mother badger started to come to her, her babies behind her. She growled and leaped at it’s back, digging her claws into its shoulders and scraping its small beady eyes. One of the small babies tried to leap on top of her, but she jumped so it hit it’s mother. She felt claws rake her leg as the other baby, much older, scrapped it down her leg. She yowled and tugged her leg out, almost all her fur gone. She thought for a moment before the mother came it her. It sank her claws into her side and she clawed at in. She suddenly got an idea as she saw their den covered in boulders. She stood inside the den, the badgers coming closer. She crouched as the three badgers leaped at her and they hit the den’s wall with a bang. The boulders started to tumble and she crawled out, her injury’s being teared. After she struggled through the thorns, she breathed relief as she fell to the ground.—Flameheart
(No, pretend Wolf was actually in the fight)
Wolfpaw followed Flame out of the badger den. He had some cuts that would scar, but he was going to be fine. He glared at Sunnyshine, and leapt at her, claws unsheathed, snapping his jaws. “How dare you!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Stonetooth couldn't help but grow curious with how close Birdsong was to Eaglestrike- after all, the she-cat had been his best friend for several moons. "You and Eaglestrike seem to be fast friends." The deputy commented as the red she-cat washed her paws, catching Birdsong's eye. "Oh, well...we're actually sorta mates now." Birdsong commented plainly, noting his sudden shock and therefore deciding to quickly explain. "I know it's sudden, and you're my best friend so I should 'consult' you first, but..." Birdsong trailed off and quickly shook her head. "Stonetooth, I've been pining for you for moons, and Eaglestrike helped me realize that there are other cats out there. Maybe our relationship isn't super emotional, but..." The warrior shrugged her shoulders. "It works." -- Birdsong
Sunnyshine ducked away and gave an evil laugh. - Sunnyshine
"Oh." Stonetooth didn't know how to react- he never realized that Birdsong had feelings for him, and he wasn't certain about this "experimental" partnership with Eaglestrike. But whatever made his friend happy, right? "...I'm glad you found someone." The deputy offered his friend a small smile before he noticed his sister had finally returned, and he quietly dismissed himself from their conversation. Eyes round with concern, he swiftly approached the exhausted Riverstone. "Riverstone!" Stonetooth called to his sister, racing over to her. "Where were you last night? Are you ok?" She...smelled weird. -- Stonetooth
Flame stood up, lifting her tore foot, and pulled Wolf close to her. She whispered so only he could hear, “Don’t worry, they got themselves in trouble. What happened when we come back to camp, only you, me and Frozenkit scratched? They will show who is the tratior.” Aloud she mewed, “C’mon Wolf. Camp.” She picked Frozenkit softly in her jaws and linked back to camp. You have caused battle with me fools. Your blood will be spilled.—Flameheart
Sunnyshine smirked and nudged Rivergaze. "We did it..." - Sunnyshine
Rivergaze grinned. Though her whiskers twitched uneasily. She really thought it would be more enjoyable.....-River
Ravenclaw padded with Howlpaw back to camp. He heard whines coming from a cave and saw Sunnyshine and Rivergaze. “What was that for?”—Ravenclaw
Rivergaze raised a brow. “Huh?”-River
Flame padded up to Quillstar, her leg not treated yet. “Greetings Quillstar.“ She saw the leader looking at her in shock. “Sunnyshine and Rivergaze tried to trap me. They took Frozenkit our of camp and almost got him plus Wolfpaw killed.“ She showed her leg and flicked her tail to the other cats. “There is proof. Only I, Frozenkit and Wolfpaw have scars while Sunnyshine and Rivergaze are fine.” She turned and mewed over her shoulder. “Please do something.” She limped away, feeling every tear in her leg.—Flameheart
Ravenclaw felt hsi fur rise. “You know what I mean. Why did you trap Flame?“—Ravenclaw
Rivergaze sighed. “Have you ever seen her? What a monster she is!? She killed her own clanmates and just took from us! She was saved by a badger for a reason and she blew her only try! She decided to use her life to kill and leave the clan taking cats from us! Ravenclaw, you of all cats should know it was wrong of Quillstar to take her back in for killing more cats!”-River
Ravenclaw roles his eyes. “If Flame killing other cats was bad, then you are bad. You just tried to kill her plus two other cats.”—Ravenclaw
Rivergaze flattened her ears. “Are you serious Ravenclaw? You’re saying that killing the monster isn’t bad?! Lives are risked to kill everyday and haven’t you noticed Wolfpaw is with her on the killing? Frozenkit is a weak excuse of a cat!” She growled and bristled before she lowered her head and paced. though stopped to take a breath..... “Ravenclaw. She will never truly be of our clan and she should go as she came. She had her chance, again, she was saved by a badger for a reason to have a valuable leader of ours to turn against us. Didn’t you know it’s her fault Skyshadow is dead? She had the chance to be a great warrior but decided to kill apart the clan. So this is the last straw. She should come back the way she came in.” -River
Crow pulled herself away from her mentor and returned to camp. She didn’t need him to mentor her. She then spotted flame and let a grin leak onto her mouth. “Looks like the fire queen couldn’t handle whatever you fought.” She snarled. Then turning and padding away.-Crow
Sunnyshine smiled. - Sunnyshine
Stormsong darted forward, licking Wolfpaw. "Are you okay?" she cried. She glared at Rivergaze. "You monster! You could have killed him!" - Stormsong
Rivergaze froze. “You think I cared? I should kill you then.” She hissed. Arching her back and making a scene in camp. she stared up to Quillstar. “You.” She growled. “Should never have let them in! They left as traitors and will die as traitors!” She hissed, and stormed around cmap. “You let HER in after she killed her own clanmates after she was supposed to die! Skyshadow saved her for a reason and that reason is for a chance starclna gave her! Yet she spoiled it and used it.” She hissed, lashing her tail. “She lost her chance of life and all the former darkmasters need to die!” She growled. Then turning sharp eyed to Stormsong. ‘Starting with my Backstabbing kin!” And she pounced on Stormsong and kicked Wolf away.-River
Stormsong snarled, twisting to get out of Rivergaze's grip. - Stormsong
Rivergaze hissed. “I knew you as the youngest sister would betray us with the monster. Don’t think we’re blind Stormsong. Or should I say Stormpaw. You don’t deserve that name!” She raked her claws on Stormsong’s cheek and slapped the she-cat. “Ambereye shouldn’t have had you!”—River
Blood welled where Rivergaze's had raked her. Stormsong battered Rivergaze in self defense, but her claws were sheathed. - Stormsong
Rivergaze grinned as she batted her little sister down and held her claws to Stormsong’s neck. Eyes to slits she grinned “bye bye, runt.” though she looked around and her eyes widened with horror. The clan, Quillstar. Everyone was watching her kill her own sister. Whta... whta had she done.... she loosened her grip a little though her claws where still unsheathed.—River
“Let go of my mother!” Shrieked Wolfpaw. He lunged, and clawed at Rivergaze’s side, claws unsheathed, making a huge gash. “Your worse than Scar! And she killed my father and sister!” He shrieked. “You have less honor than any fox in this forest! You have less honor than any cat in the Place of No Stars!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Rivergaze hissed. “Oh and this is my snooty little nephew. dissapointing.” Though the gash on her shoulder hurt like starclan. “Well I guess since you have no more family I might as well do this.” She leaped on Stormsong again and bit the she-cta’s throat. “Come nay closer and she dies.”-River
Wolfpaw backed away, with wide eyes. “Don’t kill her.” He begged. “Please, don’t kill her.” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Rivergaze hissed. This tom was weak. Of course she had to kill Stormsong. She was a mistake to the family and needed to be killed for this. And if anyone else opposed she’d— suddenly she was pushed from her thoughts as. A huge tom shoved her across cmap, she landed with a thud. “Whta!” Shrewstone hissed. “Rivergaze. What are you doing.” As he helped Stormsong to her paws.-Shrewstone
Wolfpaw ran over to Stormsong, and stood in front of her, bristling. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Shrewstone frowned at his niece. Then turned to Wolf. “She’ll be fine.” And then he sighed and looked around, the big tom then stared to Rivergaze. “What are you gonna do?”
Rivergaze then blinked and saw everyone. Frozenkit, Wolf, Flame. Stormsong. Quillstar.... Shrewstone... he’d taken care of her as his own when Ambereye died.... she frowned, why was he being nice to her? She tried to kill! She frowned and took a step back. “Nothing. I’m gonna do nothing.”-River
Wolf nodded at Shrewstone, but stayed put. He didn’t believe Rivergaze. The so-called “warrior” of WillowClan. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Rivergaze added. “Nothing but get rid of her.” She glanced to flame. Though she felt hollow inside.-a River
Wolfpaw let his fur smooth. “Why do you want to get rid of Flame?” He asked. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Stormsong staggered to her paws, blood streaming where Rivergaze's had injured her. - Stormsong
Wolfpaw pressed against Stormsong, letting her lean on him for support. “You should get to one of the medicine cats.” He murmured to her. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Rivergaze hissed. “You mean the monster.”-River
Ripplepool ran to the friends and took them back to the medicine. Ants den.-Ripple
Stormsong murmured a thank you and limped with Ripplepool. - Stormsong
Sunnyshine smirked, hoping they'd injured the she-cat beyond repair. - Sunnyshine
“You’re more of a monster than she’ll ever be.” Hissed Wolfpaw. “She didn’t kill without reason. It was accidental half the time. And at least she has cats that care about her, Rivergaze.“ - Wolfpaw
“heh. I’m sure she does. So they’ll all pay the price when the time comes little nephew.” She barked. “I’m sure you haven’t heard of her killing, let’s see, Firepaw, Lilypaw, Flareflight.... hmmm, let me recall, perhaps someone she used to care about?”—River
“But it was Scar’s fault! She told her too!” Yowled Wolfpaw. - Wolfpaw
“and she listened.” Rivergaze snorted. “She had her chance and she blew it.” She growled.-River
“So did you.” Growled Wolf. “Doesn’t everyone have demons whispering in their ear? Don’t we all have a choice whether to obey them or not?” - Wolfpaw
Rivergaze paused. She wasn’t.... she growled. “Heh like StarClan? I’m so sure of it.” She grumbled. Then wondered if StarClan was watching her now, “I’m sick and tired of being ignored for this and I think we all know about what she’s done. And like I said. She deserved to go the same way she came.”-River
“You do know, she fought beside WillowClan in the battle against Scar?” He asked. “And Quillstar invited her along with the rest of us back into the Clan.” He unsheathed his claws, and looked around. All of his Clanmates were looking extremely hostile. “I suggest you leave before things get ugly.” He growled. - Wolfpaw
Rivergaze snorted. “I’m not going anywhere. If my clan is willing to fight against me so be it.” She hissed. Arching and unsheathing her claws. Though flinched as something padded beside her. Crow padded beside Rivergaze and hissed to the others. Rivergaze raised a brow as Crow met her brother’s eyes. Hurt.-River & Crow
Wolf flinched back. “Crow, what are you doing?!” He exclaimed. “Why are you going with her? She tried to kill me! And our mother!” - Wolfpaw (WC)
Crow frowned. “Brother. I saw whta she’s made. Ever wonder how the DarkMasters started? It was Flame’s fault that Blossom and Nightfire are both dead. The battle shouldn't have happened. We should’ve grown up here. And why would you care about mother? She decided to leave us! She only came back because she realized our worth.” She sighed. “I’m willing to rid the forest of her once and for all...... with...” she sighed. Unsheathing her claws. “....Or Without you.” She really didn’t know if she was enough though...—Crow
Wolf struggled to breathe, as tears came to his eyes. He didn’t want to cry in front of the whole Clan. Especially not in front of Quillstar or Flame. “I- I-“ He was trembling so hard, he could barely stand. “I thought you were my sister!” He snarled! “All that my family has really brought me is pain! When Nightfire died, pain. When Blossom died, pain! When Stormsong left, pain!” He glared at her. “You betraying me, pain. Well you know what. I have no family anymore.” - Wolf
Crow frowned and looked to her paws. “Our family is torn Wolf. Every single one of us is against each other. But...” she looked around. “I will not fight you. I’m always with you.... But not now. Thta was when I was afraid of being hurt.” She sighed. “She needs to go.”-Crow
Wolf padded towards his sister. “I can’t hurt you.” He told her. “I love you.” He looked at her. He wasn’t sure whether he meant having no family or not. He was just afraid of seeming weak. Afraid of getting hurt. “But I won’t let you hurt Stormsong. I just can’t. I do believe that our mother loves us.” - Wolf
Crow sighed. “She might. But I don’t think I’ll ever forgive her.” She growled to her mother. “Or our family.” She hissed to Rivergaze. She sighed. “I don’t know whta to do anymore....” she frowned to Shrewstone, her family was torn in many pieces. Evil, good, dark, light. She didn’t know where she belonged.—Crow
Wolf pressed against her. “I’m with you. The rest of our family may be scattered. But I will stand with you.” Pain filled his eyes. “I just can’t let you choose Rivergaze’s side. She’s evil, Crow, evil! She tried to kill me! If you really love me . . . You wouldn’t side with the cat who tried to murder me.” He said. “It’s not all black and white. There’s always a gray as well. And that’s where I belong.” - Wolf
Crow closed her eyes as he pressed her fur. “Wolf. I’ve heard that fraise too many times. That fraise forces the listener. She tried to do whta she thought was right. I’m not moving from my spot.” Though Rivergaze shoved Wolf away. “Heh.” She grinned as she gazed at Crow. “You useless piece of crowfood. You are weak as you think he is! Meaning there is no place for you in the forest. She then gripped hard on Crow’s throat and threw Crow across the clearing, landing in front of the nursery. “I’ll be back. Just you all wait. I’ll be back and the next victim will be him.” She growled to Wolf and dashed off into the forest, her home, her honor, and her pride. Gone.—Rivergaze
Ripplepool gasped from Stormsong and Flameheart and dashed to Crow.-Ripple
“Crow!” Cried out Wolf. “No!” He shrieked. As he ran over to her, thoughts raced through his head. Warnings. Never get close to anyone again! Stay away! They’ll only leave, and hurt you again! Stay away! Never get close! Stay away, stay away, STAY AWAY! He let out a wail. - Wolf
Crow winced as she hauled herself up. instant regret flooded through her. "traitor." she hissed.-Crow
“Crow, are you okay?!” Exclaimed Wolf. - Wolf
Crow growled. “I’m fine.” Before swatting ripplepool away. “She won’t be fine next time I see her.” She growled and pulled away. “Nor will she.” She hissed to Stormsong. Then she sighed and with a flick of her tail, she limped out of camp and climbed an oak.-Crow
Mapleblaze hissed. “That she-cat was never my favorite....” she grumbled.-Maple
Icegaze gasped and pulled the scratched Frozenkit closer. “Oh Frozenkit your eye!” She yowled as she licked the huge scar at her that came down his face to his eye.-Ice
Hurt, Wolf ran out of camp. He didn’t follow Crow, he didn’t follow Rivergaze, he just ran. He ran and ran and ran. - Wolf`
Crow frowned as she saw her brother burst out of camp. She had a feeling he was hurt the hardest and needed her more than anyone.... she frowned as she followed him quietly through the trees, on a lookout for Rivergaze too.-Crow
Wolf kept running and eventually left WillowClan territory. He stopped, panting, and looking around. - Wolf
Crow gasped. She leaped down at the border and sighed. “Wolf.” She’d been on the border. But Wolf, he was over it.Crow
“Crow.” He said, sitting down, turning his head towards her. - Wolf
Crow didn’t dare step over the border. “Hi.” She sighed.-Crow
“What should I do now? I don’t want to leave WillowClan. But . . . I don’t exactly wish to stay either.” - Wolf
Crow sighed. “I’ve been think to leave for awhile now.” She admitted, “I think you need to be here. You belong here.” She meowed. “With Mother and the rest of the family.” She curled her tail around her paws. “But me...” she sighed. “I don’t. I was think of weather to go or not.”-Crow
Wolf looked at her. He knew in his heart he couldn’t leave WillowClan. He wanted to cry out, But I need you, Crow! Instead he said, “You know what’s right for you.” He told her. “I won’t be angry if you leave.” - Wolf
“Should we get back to the Clan?” He asked her. - Wolf
Quillstar would be left with no other choice but to exile Rivergaze for her actions- attacking clanmates would be tolerated no more. But there was no point in making a formal announcement, he could feel bitter restentment flooding across WillowClan. His warriors would know what to do. -- Quillstar
The scene was appalling. Stonetooth had been busying himself over interrogating Riverstone about where she had been the night before, and why she stunk of fish. But now, with a skirmish breaking out in camp, the deputy needed to guide his clan and leave personal matters on the back burner. First and foremost, he had to ensure that the cats involved were alright, while Quillstar decided on how he'd deal with Rivergaze. Flame and Wolf would have to be checked on, but he'd start with Stormsong first. "Do you need any help?" The solemn deputy asked the former queen in a level tone. -- Stonetooth
Stormsong smiled. "The medicine cars are patching me up well." She glanced at a cut on her shoulder, still raw and painful from where Rivergaze's had slashed her claws. - Stormsong
The gray bicolor flicked his mottled tail. "Good, just ensure that you're feeling well and let me know if you need anything." Although Stonetooth was never around kits much, he secretly had a deep resepct for the queens. They went through a lot- form dealing with little rascals to having to watch their own kits go off to war. He imagined that it was tough. The deputy let his gaze waver on Birdsong momentarily, noting that she was returning to camp with Eaglestrike by her side once more. At least I helped shape him into a half decent cat. -- Stonetooth
Cinderkit hid in the nursery, still nervous after the angry commotion in camp. Ashbreeze did what she could to comfort her daughter, while Leopardkit tensely sat beside his mother and sister. He noted the pleased grin on Wolfshade's maw after wittnessing the attack. I don't like that guy... -- Leopardkit (WC)
Stormsong nodded. Where are my kits? - Stormsong
The tom continued off in his thoughts as he watched Birdsong and Eaglestrike settled down to share a meal. Am I ok with this? She's my best friend, and he was my apprentice, and it just feels...weird. The deputy felt his belly tense as he his mind continued to wander. Would they have kits some day? Oh- kits, right! He needed to send out a patrol to find Wolfpaw and Crowpaw. Now he was feeling like a massive mousebrain, how embarrassing of a deputy. Rising to his paws, Stonetooth prepared to gather a few warriors to ensure that Rivergaze had left, and to seek out the two missing apprentices. -- Stonetooth
Leopardkit decided that it was time to distract his sister and help her build more confidence around camp. Awkwardly rising to his still-unstable paws, the sepia tomkit turned to Cinderkit. "C'mon, let's go play mossball in camp!" -- Leopardkit (WC)
Sunnyshine padded away, but then felt someone stop her. It was Spiderfang. The dark tabby tom's eyes were not angry but concerned. "What has gotten into you?" he asked. "You're not acting like yourself." Sunnyshine retorted, "Yes I am! It's Flameheart and Stormsong that keep picking fights with me." Her friend let out an exasperated sigh. "You were the one that lured them into a badger trap!" Sunnyshine frowned, then whirled away, leaving Spiderfang in the dust. - Sunnyshine
Spiderfang narrowed his amber eyes. He searched for Quillstar, found the silver-and-black leader, and padded over to him. "Quillstar," he mewed. "As your senior warrior, I'd like to speak with you." - Spiderfang
Crow sighed. “Alright.” She meowed as she padded back to camp with him.-Crow
Icegaze ran up to Flameheart. “Thank you so much! Frozenkit is safe because of you! I don’t know how to even.....” She sighed.-Ice
As Wolf returned to camp, he hears Icegaze thanking Flame. Yeah, don’t mind me. I sure wasn’t part of any of this. He thought, although deep down he didn’t really care. He kept his head down, so no one would see his tear-streaked face. Embarrassed, he ran into the apprentices’ den. - Wolf
Flame looked up from her teared leg and felt embarrased. "Wolf helped. I hope Frozenkit is ok." I know I'm not. Welp time for blood. She staggered to her paws and limped to her branch where she leaped up, letting her tail dangle down. If they want blood, let them have it.—Flameheart
Ravenclaw stared after Rivergaze. "You should be called Idiot." He turned away to see Forestfire bounding up to him. "Are you ok?" Ravenclaw purred, "Kinda. No scratches though." Forestfire nodded her head, understanding and they glared after the cats.—Ravenclaw and Forestfire
​Swiftshadow frowned as she saw Flame's teared leg. Scorch ran up to her. "Where is Rivergaze and Sunnyshine!?" Swiftshadow laid her tail on her former appretnice's shouler. "Not here. Scorch let Flame be for a while." Scorch frowned. "Why is Flame hurt? She is such a great fighter." Swiftshadow mummered, "Three big badgers are very hard to defeat. You know that sometimes a whole patrol is injured by just one badger. Flame will get hurt, but she is still the Flame of DarkMasters."—Swiftshadow and Scorchclaw
"Scorchclaw, Dawrise, Stormsong," the deputy called to the trio of cats with a minor wave of his charcoal-gray tail. "You three know Wolfpaw and Crowpaw best from your old group. You'll come with me on patrol to hopefully track them down. We can't have apprentices out there alone, not with an exiled warrior on the loose, in addition to the foxes from a few days ago." -- Stonetooth
Scorchclaw flicked his tail. "They are already here." He looked as Wolf slid into the apprentices den and Crow just sat down.—Scorchclaw
The deputy shook his head. "Nevermind that, we still need to make sure that Rivergaze has left our territory." -- Stonetooth
Stormsong nodded, her paws weak. But she needed to find that cat and drive her out. - Stormsong
Spiderfang looked at Quillstar meaningfully. - Spiderfang
Scorchclaw glanced at Flame before nodding and following the deputy.—Scorchclaw
Quillstar wasn't so certain about having Stormsong out on patrol after being injured, but before he could speak, he remembered that Spiderfang had said something. "Oh- yes, we can speak in my den if the matter is private." -- Quillstar
Spiderfang dipped his head and followed the leader into his den. "Well," the warrior started. "I have my concerns about Sunnyshine. I don't think she's alright. She lured Flameheart into the trap alongside Rivergaze and hates Stormsong and her kits. She's acting angry and odd and she refuses to be consoled. What do you think I should do? I'm afraid she's going to hurt somebody like Rivergaze did." - Spiderfang
Stonetooth felt his leader's gaze linger on him, and found himself cringing inwardly when he remembered that Stormsong was injured. All deputies made mistakes, right? "If you feel that you need rest, you're welcome to stay behind. I can find another warrior." He added quickly as he glanced back at the former queen. -- Stonetooth
"Wel..." Quillstar tipped his head to the side as he attempted to think the situation over. "It might be best to consult her when she isn't angry, maybe take her out hunting and have her cool off first. If that doesn't work, it might be a good idea to seek help from Ripplepool or Juniperberry. Medicine cats have a way of making peace." -- Quillstar
Scorch sniffed a a bush. "She was here before." he reported.—Scorchclaw
Spiderfang nodded, grateful for the advice. He padded over to Sunnyshine and asked her if she would like to go hunting with him. She agreed and they headed out. - Spiderfang
Birdsong poked her head into the medicine cat den, since Stonetooth had left camp. "Hey, Dustypaw," she meowed with a wave of her fox-like tail before approaching the little flame point tom. "Eaglestrike and I have been trying to have kits. I was training to be a medicine cat before, and I think I'm expecting, but...I'd like a second opinion." Dustypaw nodded and slowly felt the warrior's flank. Didn't she and Eaglestrike only recently become mates, like...just this morning? "I think you are expecting, Birdsong. Maybe it's just one kitten?" -- Dustypaw & Birdsong
Twilightbreeze was still shocked from hearing the news about Flame, Wolf, and Frozenkit. Then the attack in camp. Oh i am glad she ran away. I hope they find her. Twilightbreeze went of to the neursry to check on Icegaze and Frozenkit. " Hi, How is Frozenkit doing?" --Twilightbreeze
Stonetooth nodded in agreement. "Hopefully we can trace her scent-trail to the border. We need to ensure that she's gone before I start sending apprentices out on patrol again." -- Stonetooth
"I'm going to go play around camp," Leopardkit decided before he wobbled out of the nursery, eyes fixated into narrowed slits. The tomkit had grown bold since Wolfshade's outburst and revelation of the kit's scandal heritage- it concerned his mother. Leopardkit seemed dedicated towards defending himself and his family, but perhaps with the wrong methods... -- Leopardkit (WC)
Scorchclaw nodded agreement and drew in the she-cat's scent. It lead out of WillowClan territory. He turned to the deputy, looking at him for the next order.—Scorchclaw
Frozenkit squeaked. “Look! My first battle scar!” And pointed to the large scratch over his right eye.-Frozen
Flame purred her delight as she looked at Frozenkit from her cleaning.—Flameheart
"Let's refresh the scent markers to ensure that she gets the message." Stonetooth decided before he sunk his claws into some nearby bark. -- Stonetooth
Leopardkit hesitated, glancing back at his sister who was still cowering behind her mother since learning of her Dark Forest-ScarClan heritage. "Are you coming, Cinderkit?" -- Leopardkit (WC)
Mosskit looked at Frozenkit’s scar. “Woah! Cool!” He exclaimed. - Mosskit
Wolf heard all the warriors outside talking, and heard Flame praise him as well for helping to save Frozenkit. He closed his eyes shut. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Scorchclaw nodded and weaved through the border markers. "If you come back Rivergaze, you won't be welcomed."—Scorchclaw
Flame looked at her dry teared leg. "Welp." She heaved herself to her paws and limped to the apprentices' den. She prodded Wolf. "Get up."—Flameheart
Wolf opened his mouth for a sharp retort, but closed, and obeyed. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Stormsong glared at Rivergaze. - Stormsong
Flame led her apprentice to the corner of the camp. "What's wrong?"—Flameheart
With the border remarked, Stonetooth nodded to himself out of satisfaction. "Let's get back to camp now." -- Stonetooth
Cinderkit lowered herself to the ground to further hide herself behind her pale-furred mother. "I-I think I'm good in here for now..." The she-kit whimpered in response to her brother, who frowned at her answer. -- Cinderkit
Scorch obeyed and padded back into camp with the patrol, nodding a greeting to Swiftshadow with the kits.—Scorchclaw
"I'm probably about a moon along...just another moon before I have kits." Birdsong never expected herself to be a mother while training to become a medicine cat, but by making the right choice...here she was. It had always been her dream, despite Stonetooth rejecting her feelings. Maybe Eaglestrike wasn't perfect, but they could surely make things work. -- Birdsong
Frozenkit froze. What was that?! The scent of sadness and loneliness calling his name! He zipped over to Cinderkit. “Hi Cinderkit! Are you okay?”-Frozen
The dappled she-cat shrunk back when Frozenkit darted over. "No." She answered quietly, leading Ashbreeze to pull her daughter closer with a concerned furrow of her browline. "Cinderkit, you'll be alright." The queen promised the latte-brown kitten with a reassuring smile. "I won't let anyone hurt you- not any WillowClan cat, not any ScarClan cat, not even a Dark Forest cat." -- Cinderkit & Ashbreeze
Frozenkit frowned. “I didn’t mean to scare you, I want to be your friend. You seem really lonely.” He frowned more. Though shook his head. “I got this cool battle scar!” He showed her the scratch over his eye.-Froze
“What’s not wrong?” Said Wolf. “Rivergaze just tried to kill Stormsong, and promised to kill me next, Crow is thinking about leaving WillowClan, and she hates our mother, and the rest of my family is dead! And half the cats here hate me, and treat me like a rogue!” - Wolf
Flame sighed. "How do you think I feel?" She glared down at her apprentice. "Rivergaze can't kill you. You have had more advanced training than she will ever get."—Flameheart
“True.” He growled. “Should we go train some more?” He asked. - Wolf
Flame sneered, "That is the Wolf That Runs in Darkness." She glanced once more at the cats in camp before disappearing into the forest.—Flameheart
Wolf nodded and followed her. - Wolfpaw (WC)
Flame found a big trunk near muddy ground and sat down. "Your hunting is fine. Now we pretend attacking. This stump," She dragged her claw on the bark, "Is Rivergaze. Do what you must." Her eyes shown as she waited.—Flameheart
Wolf nodded, and imagined the stump was Rivergaze. He snarled and lunged at it, ripping it, and tearing it to shreds, sending bark and pieces of wood flying everywhere, and leaving deep gashes in it. - Wolf
Flame doge all the flying pieces of wood. She then rolled in mud, her leg stinging, making her look gray. She then turned to leap at Wolf, knocking him down. "Miss me?" She taunted as she pretend she was Rivergaze.—Flameheart
Wolf snarled, and remembered all the battle moves, Flame had taught him. He clawed her cheek, and rolled out from under her. He lunged and barreled into her, and raked his claws down her shoulder, as she bit him on his. - Wolf
Flame yowled, "Let me kill you!" C'mon Wolf! I am Rivergaze! This will help! She clawed his belly and taunted, "You are weak! Useless. You are nothing is this world. You will never be loved. NO ONE NEEDS YOU!"—Flameheart
Wolf let out a howl of anger, and lunged at Flame, raking his claws down her side, and biting her torn leg. He bit at her neck, as she threw him off, and raked her own claws down his side. Pain spread through him, blazing, and hot. He let out a roar, and bit down on her tail, hearing it crack. - Wolf
Crow frowned as she picked at her prey. She would never be safe in WillowClan. Too many warriors that know her and have history with her. Perhaps she’d leave before she even knew it.-Crow
Storm sat in the clearing, wondering about Wolf and Crow. - Stormsong
Crow caught a glimpse of her mother and scowled. She didn’t want anything to do with Stormsong. Though didn’t realize the sense of longing him her broken heart.-Crow
Flame felt pain run through her as he leg was being torn. She felt anger rise and she flung Wolf, knocking the breath out of him. She placed her claws on his neck. "Can Rivergaze beat that?" She asked, shaking off the mud to reveal her dirty dark ginger pelt. She squinted as her leg was torn, but everything else was just more scars.—Flameheart
Wolf struggled, weakly, and went limp for a few moments, making Flame relax a bit. He then use all his strength and rammed his head into her throat, while twisting his back. He cried out in pain, as he did so, but then threw Flame into a tree, using his front paws and all the strength he had. - Wolf
Flame sunk her claws into the side of the tree and pushed off with power, knocking Wolf. "That she-cat has no chance." She got off Wolf and started to clean her wounds, feeling her flesh rob beneath her tongue. She blinked as she saw that Wolf looked worse. Oh well.—Flameheart
Crow bristled from the trees and dropped on Flameheart. -Crow
Flame rolled on her back and crushed the cat. She flipped around, opening her jaws but stopped when she saw Crow. "Greetings Crow."—Flameheart
Wolf clean his wounds as well. One on his side hurt in particular. He had never really gotten it treated. He sniffed it. Infected. He shrugged. Oh well. It’ll just go away. He thought. - Wolf
Crow hissed. “What do you think you’re doing to him! If you train him anymore you could kill him you foxheart!” She hissed to flame and ran over to Wolf.-Crow
Wolf nudged Crow. “It’s okay.” He said. “I’m not hurt that bad.” He turned his infected wound away from her. - Wolf
Crow grumbled. “Yeah right! I saw you get thrown from side to side and just get demolished!” Crow hissed. Glaring to flame. “No mentor does that to their apprentices!” -crow
Flame looked down at Crow. "An apprentice isn't wandering around the forest alone." She narrowed her eyes. "Wolf asked me to help him. Your brother asked me."—Flameheart
Wolf nodded. “Yeah! I need Flame to train me so I can become a warrior!” - Wolf
Crow growled. “No you don’t. You need literally anyone else! she’ll give you scars and teach you to kill instead of hunt! I’d like to see you catch a raven.” She Growled.-Crow
Flame growled, "Fine." She flicked her tail, ordering to Wolf to catch a raven "properly."—Flameheart
Crow rolled her eyes. “I don’t trust you. I never will. I’ve seen you. I don’t like you.” She spat to Flame. She then watched her brother with a frown.-Crow
“I can hunt just fine! Yesterday I caught a mouse, vole, and sparrow!” He sniffed a mouse. “See, watch.” He crouched in the undergrowth, and stalked it. He pounced, landed on his injured leg, and let out a yowl. He then collapsed and let out another gasp of pain, as he landed on his infected wound. “I mean, I can do better!” He exclaimed, getting to his paws. - Wolf
“not if you keep fighting Wolf. This isn’t a good way to be a warrior if anything you’d be a big bruins as a warrior so you can’t even touch anything without being hurt! That’s not the way.” She meowed.-Crow
Flame padded to stand beside Wolf, letting him rest on her shoulder. "Stop. You did good today." Turning to Crow, she mewed cooly, "You aren't even training. What can you do to prove the Clan wrong?" Without waiting for a reply, she led Wolf slowly back to camp. "Ripplepool help him." She nodded at her apprentice before limping away.—Flameheart
Wolf’s head raised in pride as Flame praised him. He limped back to camp, and went to Ripplepool. “I’m fine, really.” He mewed to the medicine cat. - Wolf
Crow stayed where she was and whispered to herself. “That’s right. I can’t do anything for this clan. I don’t belong here.” She then frowned. How could she leave without telling Wolf? Or even Storm? She shook her head and turned.-Crow
Ripplepool yowled. “Oh no you aren’t! Get in the medicine cats den now or I swear you’re gonna be crowfood.”-Ripple
Flame glared at her apprentice before turning away.—Flameheart
Stormsong spotted Wolfpaw going into the medicine cat den, bloodied. She was shocked. - Stormsong
Crow ran into camp up to her mother and Brother she realized she hadn’t spoke to her mother in so long. “Mother...... Brother...”-Crow
Stormsong cried out, "Crow, are you okay? Are you hurt too?" - Stormsong
Crow growled. “I’m fine!” and took a step away. “I’ve decided I don’t belong in WillowClan and have nothing to prove. I’m leaving. Joining another clan.”-Crow
Wolf’s eyes widened, but he slowly nodded. “Okay.” He said. “I’m sad to see you go, though.” - Wolf
“we could always see each other at gatherings remember.” Crow sighed as she turned and looked away from his widened eyes. “I’ll come to your aid whenever despite our clans..”-Crow
Flame dipped her head and padded away. You do belong here Crow, you just need to find your spot.—Flameheart
Scorchclaw bowed his head as Crow mewed her decision. Goodbye Crow That Flies at Night.—Scorchclaw
Quillstar noticed one of the new apprentices returning to camp, looking worse than before he left. The leader narrowed his eyes. Breaking the code? He would never tolerate that, not in his camp. Training was to be done with sheathed claws- always. "Flameheart." The tall leader darkened his tone as he stepped out of his den. "Did you do this to Wolfpaw?" -- Quillstar
Stonetooth stepped into camp, ears perked curiously when he noted the bloodied apprentice. Hadn't they heeded their leader's word when he offered them a place back in WillowClan, that they had to change, had to follow their rules? It wasn't like he twisted their paws and forced them to join. The deputy paused, eyes sliding over to Wolfshade who shifted near camp's exit. Don't even think about it. The deputy thought as he narrowed his eyes at the spikey-furred warrior. Quillstar's already given you a warning. -- Stonetooth
Wolf’s ears pricked as he heard Quillstar. He limped into the clearing. “I’m fine, Quillstar.” He lied, before turning back to Crow. He nudged her. “Okay.” He murmured. “I’ll help you too. Whenever you need it.” - Wolf
Flame twitched her ear. "I was watching Wolf attack an old stump." She started. "I leaped at him, testing his senses. He attacked me with unsheathed claws and then I began that." She flicked her long ginger tail. "Then Crow landed on me and I thought she was Rivergaze. There are more twisted muscles than bloody scars Quillstar." She licked Wolfpaw once and showed that there was wet mud that mostly covered him although there were some scars. "I understand in the Clan we do it differently than in The DarkMasters." Her head flashed back to the times she was leader. "Of course some of those scars didn't just appear there and that was my fault. I apologize and promise this won't happen again unless it is commanded by you." Which won't happen. She stood in front of the leader, calmly waiting.—Flameheart
The leader turned to the apprentice in question, raising his chin in an authoritative manner. "Wolfpaw," Quillstar began in a stoic tone, "claws are to be sheathed in training- no exceptions. Understood? You can train all you want to be a warrior, but if you die from infection or blood loss, you won't get your warrior name. You'll be dead." It was a grave statement, but it was the truth no doubt. "Flameheart, thank you for your honesty. Ripplepool, see to it that their wounds are treated immediately." -- Quillstar
Stormsong frowned at Wolfpaw's pelt - Stormsong
Flame raised her chin and walked away. She saw Scorch bound up to her. "Are you ok? You are not covered in that much mud." Flame rolled her eyes. "Do you know me? Who I was?" Scorch blinked. "Of course. I could never forget." He touched noses with her. "I am glad you are ok." Flame purred, "You know I am ok." Scorch smiled and padded beside her.—Flameheart and Scorchclaw
Ripplepool nodded before running into the medicine cats den.-Ripple
Crow then sighed and padded to Quillstar. “Quillstar. I’ve decided I have no place in WillowClan and I want to go and join another clan.” She meowed.-Crow
"Hey moth, dew want to have like a triple date night with Flame and me?' --Dawnrise
Mothfeather frowned. “Huh? What date? I don’t have anyone who could come with.” Mothfeather shrugged.-Mothfeather
The leader turned to the young apprentice, blinking in surprise. "I'm sorry you feel that way." He wasn't sure about sending an apprentice out- she was young, a newly made apprentice. It was a dangerous world out there. But it wasn't like he could force Crowpaw to stay. -- Quillstar
It was time to send patrols out for the day. Stonetooth stepped forward, capable of putting more weight on his leg since his muscles began to recover from the fox attack. "Birdsong, Aspensoul, Lynxleap, and Barkpelt, I want you four to go on a hunting patrol near the lake." Since the deputy lead a patrol to check the borders and ensure that Rivergaze was gone, he decided that it was safe to send out a hunting patrol. However, Birdsong approached him with a rather anxious gleam in her yellow eyes. "Stonetooth...I'm not allowed to go on patrols. I'm expecting kits." -- Stonetooth
"I mean like a girls night...." Dawn said embarissed if she offended Moth "And if you have a love interest or mate they come with us..." --Dawnrise
“what if I don’t though?” Mothfeather asked, clueless two pairs of eyes stared on her.-Moth
"Uh then you can go by yourself if you want." --Dawnrise
The deputy looked at his best friend, bewildered, and felt the earth banish beneath his white paws. "I...kits?" But...she had only just become mates with Eaglestrike! What if he left her? What if they didn't work out? Birdsong would be left to raise her kittens all by herself. But she wants this, and as her best friend, I need to support her. "Congratulations, Birdsong." Stonetooth murmured quietly with a forced smile to hide his concern. -- Stonetooth
Swiftshadow smiled at Birdsong. "I am sure the kits will be beautiful. Would you like to get settled into the nursery?"—Swiftshadow
Forestfire and Ravenclaw murmured to each other.—Ravenclaw and Forestfire
Stormsong padded up to Stonetooth. "Hey," she mewed. "If you're not busy tonight, would you like to come with Flameheart, Mothfeather, and I on a night out?" - Stormsong
Crow sighed as she then turned and bounded out of camp.—Crow
Icegaze sighed as she licked Frozenkit’s wound over again. “Ohhhh it’s gonna leave a scar....”-Ice
Stonetooth watched as Birdsong left with Swiftshadow to settle into the nursery. He hoped to Starclan that everything would be alright, that Eaglestrike would remain as the good cat that the deputy helped him develop into. He was caught off guard when Stormsong approached, turning and blinking in surprise. Well...he didn't have anything to do in the evening, other than sending out the dusk patrol and ensuring that Riverstone didn't disappear again. "Sure, I'm up to going out." -- Stonetooth
Flame limped up to Mothfeather, Dewshine and Dawnrise. "Hey guys."—Flameheart
Swiftshadow beckoned Birdsong to a moss ness lined with feathers. "Here Birdsong." She smiled. —Swiftshadow
Stormsong dipped her head. "Well, when it's time I'll see you there." - Stormsong
Icegaze purred. “Oh! Ashbreeze isn’t this exciting! Another queen in the nursery!”-Icegaze
Dewshine padded to her former apprentice. “Wow! I’m so happy for you!”—Dew
Flame sighed as she started to limp away from Mothfeather and Dawnrise.—Flameheart
"Ready to go." Dawnrise asked as Shadowhollow join the group. --Dawnrise
((Remember that Flame doesn't know about the date night thing))-Rowan
Birdsong settled down into the nest and offered up a small purr. "Thank you." -- Birdsong
Stonetooth paused, glancing over at Stormsong. "Where are we going?" The quiet natured tom asked curiously. It wasn't typical that cats asked him to tag along. -- Stonetooth
Mothfeather shrugged. “Don’t know.maybe for a swim like before?”-Moth
Swiftshadow smiled.—Swiftshadow
Oh. i thought dawn tolded her two days ago (inrealtime))
((Well she didn't really say it. And also Flame was trapped.))-Rowan
Oof)) -Dawn
"Flame want to go with shadowhollow, moth, and dew. You can bring someone else if you want." Dawnrise winked --Dawnrise
Flame looked over her shoulder at Dawnrise. "What will we be doing?"—Flameheart
"Going to that tree eating food maybe hunt you know bonding time." --Dawnrise
Flame looked at her dried teared leg, then shrugged. "If we are only bonding as a Clan or friends. Then I will come." She raked her gaze across camp.—Flameheart
Scorchclaw overheard the cats talking about the night out and remembered that he was invited by Jaystripe. Oh StarClan who will I chose? Tchee I don't even need to think. He bounded over to Flame. "Wanna be with me tonight?" Flame bristled. "Sure, as this is only a friends thing." Scorch flinched, but touched noses with her. They padded over to the other cats.—Flameheart and Scorchclaw
Forestfire and Ravenclaw looked at the departing cats. Nah we can't go. We are not cool enough.—Ravenclaw and Forestfire
Swiftshadow smiled at the two young warriors before disappearing into the nursery.—Swiftshadow
Frozenkit stood still as he narrowed his eyes to the forest and bristled his fur like a porcupine.—Frozen
Swiftshadow laid her tail on the small tom's shoulder. "Rivergaze won't come back. Flame was there to help."—Swiftshadow
“yeah she will! It’s my fault she had to save me!” Frozenkit didn’t look away.-Frozen
Swiftshadow bent her head so she was looking at the kit in the face. "Rivergaze tricked you. You didn't know. And Flame would help any kit." Unless it was any of her enemies' kits maybe.—Swiftshadow
“whta if Rivergaze had kits though!” Frozenkit meowed.-Frozen
Swiftshadow hesitated for a moment. "The kits did nothing wrong, and Flame is not Flame That Burns Blood. She would do what she thinks is right."—Swiftshadow
Frozenkit sneered. “But they have an evil mom!”-Frozen
Swiftshadow raised her brow. "Who does?"—Swiftshadow
“If Rivergaze had kits!”-Frozen
Stonetooth's pale eyes drifted over to his sister, who had been groggy for most of the day. Where had you been...? The deputy wondered curiously, although he knew that he still wouldn't get an answer out of Riverstone. Wherever she had gone, whatever she had done, it clearly took a lot of energy out of the warrior, as if she had traveled far. -- Stonetooth 
Cinderkit cringed when she heard Frozenkit. They said my dad's evil...what's Frozenkit trying to say? -- Cinderkit
Flame flicked her tail. "Moth chose someone."—Flameheart
Swiftshadow sighed. "Flame had evil parents. Does that mean I should kill her?"—Swiftshadow
Mothfeather narrowed her eyes. “Why?”-Moth
Frozenkit grumbled. “Well Rivergaze did worse!”-Frozen
Spiderfang padded through the forest with Sunnyshine. "How are you?" he mewed. - Spiderfang
Leopardkit returned to the nursery after playing with a mossball in camp, pausing to note his sister's fearful expression. The sable tom's eyes traced Cinderkit's gaze to Frozenkit, who seemed to be rambling on about something. Whatever it was, the tomkit didn't like it. Sending a seething glare in Frozenkit's direction, he nudged his sister along. "C'mon," Leopardkit murmured, helping his sister out of the nursery. -- Leopardkit (WC)
Swiftshadow did a blank smile. Yeah totally. Rivergaze tried to kill three cats while Flame did five.—Swiftshadow
Flame rolled her eyes. She muttered, "We should have gone ourselves." Aloud she purred, "Cause I think two toms want to be with you."—Flameheart
Stormsong trotted over to Stonetooth. "They're ready. Still want to come?" - Stormsong
Stonetooth removed his gaze from his sister. She'll be fine...I need to stop worrying about her. The deputy reminded himself before offering Stormsong a small smile. "Yes, I'm still happy to tag along." -- Stonetooth
Stormsong led the way to stand with the other cats. Flameheart, Scorchclaw, and multiple other cats were already there. - Stormsong
All I've ever had is my family. The patched gray feline thought to himself as he walked along with the patrol, silent in his stride despite his ears being perked forward. It's time I reach out and make friends. My mother's already left, and Riverstone and Aspensoul...they won't be here for forever. -- Stonetooth
Flame nudged Mothfeather. "C'mon." She whispered, "Do you think I want to do this?"—Flameheart
"OH YEAH!" Dawnrise cheered --Dawnrise
Mothfeather shrugged. “I guess so. Maybe I could ask Jaystripe if he wanted to come. Or maybe Aspensoul? This really seems fine if I go with y’all alone though!”-Moth
Flame grunted, "I am not going this every night." She wrapped her tail around her paws as she waited.—Flameheart
Mothfeather shrugged. “Let’s go I guess.”-Moth
Lynxleap went on patrol.-Lynx
Flame led them out of camp as the sun began to sink. Scorch caught up beside her, but she stayed away. She came to the stream and sat down.—Flameheart
Mothfeather entered the water with a splash. “C’mon Stonetooth! The water’s fine! Remember what happened last time!” Though the image of foxes flooded her mind. “Minus the Fox part!”—Moth
Stormsong stepped into the water. It was cool and refreshing. - Stormsong
Mothfeather grinned. “Hey Stormsong, I’m really sorry about.... your family....”-Moth
Stonetooth slowly slipped into the water with a few smooth movements, recalling his time spent soaking his leg in the refreshing stream to help numb the pain and better his range of motion. The deputy only tensed momentarily as the chill seeped through his thick gray fur. "Yeah...let's not include foxes this time." -- Stonetooth
Flame crept into the water, feeling it soak her fur. She suddenly felt weight on her back and turned to see that Scorch had landed on her. "Why you little!" She flung around, pushing Scorch into the water. He grabbed her under as well.—Flameheart and Scorchclaw
Mothfeather grinned as she floated on her back in the water. “Ever wonder if StarClan really comes in the forest with us?”-Moth
The charcoal feline looked to the darkening sky, which had hints of starlight already. "I'd like to think so." Stonetooth spoke quietly, even if the comment wasn't directed at him. His father was up there, the parent he never got to meet. He liked to think that he was making him proud. -- Stonetooth
“I wonder if all the leaders and cats can see us. It would be so cool to see them....” she sighed then got out of the water. And then sighed.-Moth
Flame raised her head out of the water as Scorch gave up. Yeah like any of mine are up there.—Flameheart
Stonetooth allowed himself to rest in the water, in a place shallow enough so that he could lay down and keep his head above water. He wondered about his parents frequently, but it wasn't his place to plague them with his own problems. I wonder if dad's disappointed in Mistystar for running off. The concept of his mother's abandonment still stung Stonetooth, as he had loved her dearly. Something still didn't feel right about it. She had to have left for a reason. But my clan needs me now...and I won't run out on them. My heart and soul belongs to WillowClan. -- Stonetooth
Mothfeather sighed. “I don’t think my parents are dead. Though... the way Dawnrise said ‘Moth’ for her name hurt her brain and gave her odd visions of scars being in places they weren’t, which shook her to the roots.- moth
