Mudtail

LavenderClan

DustClan

Mudtail is a sleek brown tabby with a lighter tail and paws, a bushy tail and green eyes. She was a pink nose and commonly matted fur texture and a slim body. Mudtail served under Lavenderstar's, Sunstar's, and Morningtsar's reign of order, power, and rule. She became a warrior Mudtail was born as Mudkit to Barkripple and Wildpelt, rogues that joined DustClan once they were near their elder hood. Soon after Mudkit became an apprentice and known as Mudpaw, with her mentor being Torrentshade. As a kit and apprentice her best friend was Echopaw who was. She later fell for Fireshadow.

To her dismay, Fireshadow became mates with Echofall. In Mudtail's jealousy, she attempted to ruin Echofall's life. During these attempts, they were succesful, amongst her clanmates and leader grew a hatred and a lack of trust. Dissapointment in Echofall grew and grew in her clan. Mudtail would do such as claw herself, scratching her back leg and blaming it on Echofall, scattering bits of Echofall's fur.

Mudtail had to lather herself with herbs for the next few days. The first accusation Mudtail did was that Echofall was being disrespectful, rude, and just downright awful to Mudtail. Fireshadow passed this fake warning off, not believing the lie. When Mudtail scratched herself and Echofall got punished, but, Mudtail tryed to avoid giving Echofall a punishment infront of Morningstar, protesting against it to seem like a good cat. Mudtail then, nicked a kit, Alderkit's ear, the kit on the far end of their mother's pelt, closest to Echofall in the nursery, leaving more specks of Echofall's fur, Mudtail went to a gathering instead of Echofall the following moon, after Echofall was punished from going to gatherings for the next few moons.

When Mudtail returned, she brought Echofall fresh-kill to try to seem nice, one more, yet again. Echofall figured out Mudtail's secret, that she already suggested was true in her mind. Echofall exposed Mudtail to the entire clan after Mudtail couldn't deny the truth, once she admitted it, Morningstar announced the news to the clan and she was chased out for a 3-moon long exile to brush up on the warrior code. Instead of running away, to safty, swiftly, from her angry clanmates, she ended up jumping in the lake of [[ValleyClan]]. Mudtail drowned in the water, before she died, her and Leafsplash, friends from kithood and late apprenticehood, had been best friends, Leafsplash asked Mudtail before she died if she had wanted to be mates, before Mudtail could reply she lost breath and floated in the water, motionless.

Echofall was punished once more, mentally, by herself, for the cause Mutail's death. Her causing to do so had a strange effect on all of DustClan. Mudtail, after she passed, needed to make a comeback to get into Waveclan, that night she asked Leafsplash to help her make her rebuttal. Leafsplash failed at doing so and Mudtail was sent to The Deep where she stayed for a while before being accepted and admitted into TideClan to make herself her own redemption. She is currently now making her way to Waveclan with her new mate, Leafsplash, though an unstable relationship, they still loved eachother.

### The Deep

Mudtail was sent to the deep due to her failing at making a rebuttal within a moon. Leafsplash had to try her hardest to try more but ended up failing too. She did get Mutail into TideClan but as a team effort, being done by them both.

### TideClan

Mudtail got into TideClan for redmption to get into WaveClan when Leafsplash gave Mudtail some more respect from her clanmates. Leafsplash earned a lucky season of finding many herbs and the forest being blessed with frolicking prey from head to foot of the deep wooded thicket. The forest bloomed that season and blossomed with light and joy and wisdom.

### The Deep

Mudtail regained her role in The Deep, looking for apprentices to spread the message of jealousy and madness to those who are truly pure. She tried to get Vanillapetal to be a refugee in The Deep. Mudtail tried to convince her to invite more apprentices.

## Perspective Story

I shouldered my way into the snow-filled clearing, shoveling snow into a little cover for the prey pile. My lack of enthusiasm was obviously concering my mentor, Torrentshade. No matter how much sympathy and empathy the rest of the clan had, it seems like he had all his kindness drained out of him and it the sacred stream.

"What are you doing today? Your usually not this bad! We've been toiling off this whole day as you're here moping and sulking about some old wind-bag elders." Torrentshade sneered, cackling like a cat of WaveClan giving a bad omen to a horrible leader. "Even a kit could do better!" He snickered.

"That's right!" Sunstar hissed, beckoning me to work more.

"Even your own *leader* agrees!" Torrentshade jeered. "Who cares about those elders Barkripple and Wildpelt?"

Torrentshade dodged most of my attack at him after that, but I did leave a gash at his nose. I was punished after that, tick duty. Sitting in the aprentice den, frustrated. I scowl. "What do you want?" I snap.

"Okay jeez just checking up on you, seems like you want to pick off more ticks." Torrentshade remarked. I swore silently. "Come on out and play with the other apprentices, they're bored and sent me to come get you." *Plus I feel bad.* His eyes told me, his face betrayed his tone, giving away the weakness of pity. I sigh and nodd, scrambling up.

"Why would you care to come get me and not send someone else?" I retored, stuggling to paw out, my tired legs shaking. I decide to play later and visit my parents first.

I dart over to where they were buried. "Hey mom, dad. Barkripple, Wildpelt. I miss you. Wingedpelt, my original mentor, left the clans, is reminding me of her when we were best friends." I lick my paws and lay down near them, making a mental note to visit them again at the Sacred Stream and I nod. I remind myself ti sneak out later to get to it in the first place. "Goodbye mom and dad, I'll see you later." My fur bristles in the moonlight with regret.
