Mousebrook

“	Mousebrook stood to her paws and backed away from the grieving cats, her ears flattening at her kin and Clanmates' cries to the deceased tom. She glanced down and scowled, sighing lightly. She loved being a Medicine Cat, but there was always a downside - you could heal many, but there was no real cure for heartbreak.- Mousebrook's thoughts after Badgerstripe's death.	
„
Mousebrook is faint grey she-cat with a dark grey mask, white speckles, and extremely pale blue eyes. She loves to learn new things, and is known for her prodigy in Medicine. She is one of the four adoptive kits of Flickerheart and Ashenbrook, and currently resides in ShadowClan as a Medicine Cat.
==Appearance==
Heritage: Unknown (moggy)
Description: Mousebrook is a fairly small she-cat with soft, silvery-gray fur as a base, and a coat of gray that covers most of her back, the top of her tail, and stretches down to her forelegs. She also has a pair of big, pale lavender-colored eyes which are encircled by a gray mask that is the same color as the gray on her back. On the darker gray markings there are tiny white speckles.

Scent: Mousebrook smells of a variety of different flowers combined, but particularly hyacinth and lavender. She also carries the common ShadowClan scent of pine needles, moss and forestry.

==Personality==
===Traits===
* +  Curious - Mousebrook is probably one of the most curious kits you could meet. She loves to ask questions about everything in her range of view, including things to do with nature and the sort. She's very intuitive and her curiosity helps her expand her intelligence.
* +  Amiable - Mousebrook is overly friendly- sometimes to the point where it can get annoying. She would do anything to help out one of her Clanmates if they'd do the same for her.
* ±  Absentminded - Sometimes she's a bit too curious. She can sometimes be so interested in something that her mind will trail away, and she'll begin to imagine what it would be like to do something- for example, wondering what it would be like up in the stars.
* ±  Droll - Sometimes, Mousebrook's curiosity can be a bit odd. She'll sometimes ask so many questions that a cat will get overwhelmed or exhausted with her. She's not afraid to ask questions about ANYTHING.
* −  Forgetful - Absent-minded and forgetful are a hand-on-hand thing; when she gets too curious and daydreams, she forgets what she's doing. This will probably end up getting her in trouble when she's older and is in the middle of a training session.
* −  Sensitive - Mousebrook is so nice that if a cat said one little mean thing to her, she'd probably tear up. She hates when others are mean to her and would probably hold it against them.
===Likes===
*Bugs
**Mousebrook loves bugs of every type, but most specifically adores butterflies. She loves to watch and observe them, and enjoys trying to catch them.
*Exploring and Adventuring
**This bubbly little she-cat loves a good adventure- especially if that means she gets to see or experience something new!
*Trees
**Mousepaw absolutely adores trees of all types. She loves the way they look and feel underpaw, and longs to climb one to the top one day. She's especially fond of them now that her ma's passed, and loves the Twoleg Tree. She remembers her mother naming off different types of trees to her as a kit.
*Crafting
**Mousebrook learned to craft after she'd witness Ospreykit make a drawing. After Ospreykit went away, she felt as if she had to craft things in her honor.
===Dislikes===
*When Others are Mean to Eachother
**Mousebrook is so sensitive that if she sees others fighting, she gets upset and sometimes will start crying- especially if she is close to the cats arguing.
*Getting her Pelt Dirty
**Mousebrook would never willingly step a paw in any mud, let alone be in a game of mud-slinging. She prides herself on keeping her fur 100% soft and clean.
*Being lied to
**Mousebrook hates when cats lie to her, and she's pretty good at telling when they are. She doesn't like to be treated like a helpless kit, even if she may be pretty sensitive.
===Goals===
*Climb a Tree to the Top
**More specifically, climb the twoleg tree or the leaning pine to the top. She loves trees and wants to see what it looks like from the peak of the tallest one around.
*Go to a Gathering ✓
**Mousepaw desperately wanted to meet new cats from other Clans and see what the leaders look like. She longed to see what the peak looked like.
*Swim and Fish ✓
**She may not be a RiverClan cat, but as an apprentice, Mousepaw was interested in trying everything- and that included swimming and fishing.
*Catch a Hawk
**Mousebrook wants to be able to catch one of these birds of prey one day. She wonders how SkyClanners can do it so easily- from what she's heard, at least.
*Become a Medicine Cat ✓
**Mousepaw often daydreamed about becoming a Medicine Cat. She loved the idea of the potential to lift a Clan and the cats in it to greatness.
*Explore all of the territories and beyond.
**Self-explanatory. Mousebrook wants to see everything in her line of view.
===Fears===
*Death / Loss
**After the loss of Honeytail, Ashenbrook, Bearpaw, Beechpaw, Bearsnore and Ospreykit, Mousebrook is permanently traumatized and constantly reminded of their deaths and disappearances. Because of this, she fears it, and does her best to avoid it.
*Loneliness
**Mousebrook lost most of her closest friends; because of this, she fears being alone. When she is alone, she grows reclusive and shuts everyone out.
**Even as mature as she is now, Mousebrook still has trouble with the loneliness. She often keeps to herself in her den, but does not enjoy it.
*Bats
**After a nightmare while sleeping in the underground cave, she's petrified of them.

*Mousepaw returns to camp having fully restocked their herbs.

*Mousepaw storms out of camp and goes to the Burial field, discovering that her mother has been reburied somewhere else. She follows Snakepaw to the twoleg tree and proceeds to yell at her:
