Lightflare

*"You lack self-confidence! You think you're bad at everything and that you'll never improve! If that's the case, I may as well be a bad mentor."*

-Lightflare to Nightpaw

## Appearance

White she-cat with orange tabby splotches and leaf-green eyes. She has a scar on the left side of her neck (if you look at her from the front) from Ravenflame.

## Personality

She's very optimistic, seeing as she likes to greet most cats with a smile and naturally has a cheerful demeanor about her.

She's also very playful. She enjoys the mock fights she has with her apprentice. Nightpaw puts up a good fight for her, despite him being smaller than her. She will also show her playful nature with her younger brothers, Coalkit and Strikekit.

She very rarely loses her temper. Heck, I can't even think of a time she's lost it. Guess you really need to tick Lightflare off to make her snap at you.

## Skills and Weaknesses

Lightflare is very good at hunting land prey, not wanting to touch the river unless she had to as an apprentice. Now, she hunts in the river and swims to teach her apprentice.

Her ribs will always be a weak spot for her. Since she fractured them, the pain has gone away. But if you press down on her ribs, it will pain her.

## Life

### Kit Hood

Lightkit didn't do much during her kithood. She was lazy (totally not because I was inactive), and pretty much just stayed in the nursery. When her sister Shellkit fell into the river, she developed a dislike of water. She was also the only one of her littermates who didn't sneak out, so I guess she was the best behaved?

### Apprenticeship

Nothing really happened between her 6-9 moons of living (Because I was inactive ;-;). She was apprenticed to Leopardthorn, and her mentor showed her around RiverClan's territory.

When she was 10 moons old, her mother, Dawnfeather, fell out of a tree and broke one of her paws. Lightpaw ignored the fact that her mother fell out of a tree and hurt herself, because Lightpaw proceeded to climb a tree soon after. In her defense, she thought it would be fun. It was not. A burst of wind caught her off guard and she fell out of the tree, fracturing her ribs. Dawnfeather, who had come with her, somehow got Lightpaw back to camp.

Lightpaw spent 2 moons in the medicine cats' den. I went inactive again.

After Lightpaw got out of the medicine cats' den, Leopardthorn took her out for a training session. It was fun (I think, because I can't remember it-).

For some reason, the RiverClan deputy at that time, Hickoryfrost, gave Lightpaw her warrior name, Lightflare. Even though she was 2 moons behind, Lightflare became a warrior with her littermates Shellberry and Aspenshade. Spottedpaw's was held back.

### Adult Hood

(I can't remember ;-;)

Had a talk with Spottedpaw/thorn about her friend and how horrible Hailstream, Lightflare and Spottedthorn's father, was.

Lightflare was attacked by the RC Mystery Cat and earned herself a scar and some bruised ribs.

-Time passes-

During a Clan meeting, we found out the Mystery Cat is Ravenflame. Ravenflame, after injuring Pouncekit, ran away. Lightflare, being an idiot, ran after her.

Ravenflame figured out Lightflare followed her because Lightflare's pelt is really freaking bright. This is the start of the LightFlame ship.

Talked with Shellberry sometime.

Talked to Hawkstorm as well.

Talked with Rosepaw, who also was in love with Ravenflame, but Lighty doesn't really know.

LightFlame is approved.

Lightflare confessex to Ravenflame and she asked Ravenflame to be her mate. Ravenflame immediately accepted. They talked for a bit and Ravenflame brang up the concept of them having kits. Lightflare is not ready.

Two moons later, Lightflare visited Ravenflame and they started talking again. Lightflare finally agreed that having kits would be nice.

Lightflare then went about her days as normal, occasionally seeing Ravenflame.

Lightflare is then given Nightpaw as an apprentice. She's surprised, but glad that she's entrusted with the responsibility of training a young cat into an honorable warrior.

Lightflare and Nightpaw pretty much have to best mentor-apprentice relationship ever.

Ravenflame came in the RiverClan camp and confessed to killing Pouncepaw. Ravenflame broke down and pretty much tackled Lighty into a cat hug. Some cats figured out about their FBL. Lightflare felt embarrassed and ashamed, especially when Shellberry got mad at her.

Followed Badgerstar and Ravenflame out into their territory. (This RP is still unfinished >:0)

Took her apprentice's spirit out for a walk and she watched as he caught a piece of prey. Lightflare is scared for her life.

Lightflare was there when her apprentice's spirit finally got back into his body. She helped him back to the medicine cats' den and got him prey because he was a hungry boi.

She was with her mother as Dawnfeather was giving birth to her 3rd litter of kits. Lightflare decided it was gross and didn't watch. Dawnfeather let her name the first kit, and Lightflare named him Coalkit after Coalheart. Hailstream names the second kit Strikekit after Oakstrike.

She talked to her father and finally has a good conversation with him. They kind of made amends, as they're joking and teasing each other. Hailstream brang up the subject of mates and kits, and Lightflare immediately became quiet. Hailstream told her that she can tell him what's wrong, but she insisted that nothing was wrong. She then took her father on a walk. During this walk, Lightflare admits she's mates with an exile. Hailstream accepted this for some reason and promised he wouldn't tell.

Nightpaw finally got out of the medicine cat den. He went over to Lightflare and said that he's ready to start training again. He saluted to her (if cats can do this) and started calling her Captain, much to her annoyance. She then chased him out of the camp. He expected to get in trouble, but she just swatted at him and somehow didn't lose her temper.

They then go to Silver Falls to hunt. As soon as they got there, Lightflare pushed Nightpaw into the river as payback for calling her Captain. It didn't go well and Nightpaw had a hard time getting out of the river, but he eventually does. As soon as he got out, Lightflare hurried over to warm him up. He quickly does, and Nightpaw said he deserved it, which Lightflare only agreed with slightly.

She talks with Lynxstone and shares prey with him.

Lightflare followed her sister, Spottedthorn, out of camp secretly. She watched her sister decide to hunt fish while sitting on a bush because that makes sense. Lightflare pleader that Spottedthorn get off the bush, and when Spottedthorn goes to respond, the branch she was standing on broke, making Spottedthorn plunge into the depths of the river.

Lightflare dove into the river after her sister. She gropes around for her sister, before going to the surface to breathe. During this time period, Spottedthorn hits her head on a rock and blacks out for a few moments, inhaling water. Lightflare dives back down and this time finds her, helping Spottedthorn to the surface, then the shore. Lightflare pleads for Spottedthorn not to die. Dewpaw shows up, then disappears again. Mousepelt of ShadowClan was also there. Spottedthorn gives Lightflare messages to tell certain cats, then dies. Lynxstone appears shortly after Spottedthorn dies.

Lightflare carries Spottedthorn back to camp. Duskfall and Hailstream asks what happened, Lightflare explains, and Lightflare immediately starts grieving for her sister. Lynxstone also comes over to grieve and they both bury her.

She talks with Goldenflame and he says she's not exciting. Lightflare says she's not and Goldenflame suggests hunting to make her not boring. Lighty says that they should go to No Clans' Land because that's exciting and Goldenflame is hesitant, but agrees. They go to No Clans' Land and get attacked by a badger. They defeat it and thankfully escape with minimal wounds.

Lightflare goes out for a training session with her apprentice. Nightpaw is attacked by a fox during the session and Lightflare saves him without getting hurt somehow. They go back to camp and Lightflare tried healing Nightpaw, but ultimately fails. Dewpaw then comes over and helps Nightpaw.

After Nightpaw is healed, he goes hunting. Lightflare follows him out secretly because she was worried for her apprentice. She wasn't being creepy. She was right to be worried though. A dog harms her apprentice and she lunges at the dog to save him. This result in Nightpaw being hurt (I can't remember where) and Lightflare getting bit by the dog on one of her forelegs and her tail. Dewpaw treats them in the territory, and Lightflare carries Nightpaw back to camp.
