CaveClan/Roleplay/Archive 15

Grasskit feebily pawed at her eyes, then *bam*. They opened. She let out a tiny surprised squeak when she took in her first sights. She glanced around and for the first time saw her mother, father, and siblings, sleeping in a pile. She realized how far she was from them. She decided to go over, but then something caught her eye. The nursery entrance. She lashed her stubby tail in excitement. She was going to go outside! She made her way out of the cave (idk what the den is) on wobbly legs. ~Patchfeather~ 14:43, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Carpheart turned to the left feeling the dirt fly up and flick over her tail as she ran and did her best to run faster. Carpheart had all the capabilities of being a great leader, but would Bramblestar choose her?? The calico molly bared her teeth in frustration as the wind flies through her thick fur.

Tinycloud was back in camp with Nightshade. The white molly's pale green eyes softened as she heard Flintpelt muttering about Carpheart. "Don't be so rash, she's just going through a harsh time." The white warrior rationalized. Flintpelt cast his twin a look of anger. "Tinycloud, I highly doubt that. She just wants attention." He replies. Shadowclaw walked into camp with a calm gaze. He had run into the said warrior nearly an hour ago and she was nowhere to be seen. — Minkclaw 19:06, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

After sending off a few warriors, Bramblestar took the rogue - whom apparently called herself Leaf - into her den. "Now," the leader mewed, her black-tipped tail flicking, "what're you doing here in CaveClan?"

Leaf hesitated, her delicate paws shuffling the ground. "I've been asked to come here."

"...But who asked you...?"

Leaf tilted her head. "Some... dead cats. They told me to find you." --look me in the eye 19:11, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Shadowclaw glanced up at the sign of the rogue, Leaf. His yellow eyes flicked to their leader's den. Tinycloud cast her pale green eyes onto the rogue. "What's she doing here?" Asked the tiny warrior. Flintpelt sneered.

"Curious at our life," the dark tom said with a dark voice. "Maybe to attack us or something." He commented afterwards. — Minkclaw 19:16, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Exhausted, Shadowsong raised his patched head in surprise to see her daughter attempting to leave the nursery. "Sweetie? Where are you going?" Meanwhile, Stagkit struggled to open his eyes, and eventually succeeded, blinking them in shock at a pile of silver fluff at his side. Ewww, what was that?! Oh, right, that was his sister. Heh.**Silverstar** 19:43, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy had followed Bramblestar to her den; being an older warrior, she had the right to hear what was going on. "Dead cats?" she echoed. She turned to Bramblestar. "Could StarClan have sent Leaf to us?" ---- Grasskit turned back to her family at the voice of a she-cat. She saw her; that was her mother! she looked a bit like her! "My eyes are open!" she exclaimed in a shrill voice. "I was going to see outside!" she added, stumbling back over to her mother, purring. Fernstorm leaned down to lick Grasskit's forehead. "Your still a bit too small," he murmured softly. ~Patchfeather~ 21:26, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Shadowsong spoke with a warm voice, a purr rumbling in her throat as she addressed her little daughter, "I see that, and you have some very beautiful eyes, Grasskit. I'm afraid your father's right though, you guys are still a bit small. How about you test your legs in here for now?"---- Stagkit squirmed away from his mother and Ashkit, shaking out his fluffy kitten-fur. "She can't go outside! Not without me, just in case...uh...uh...someone tries to step on her!"**Silverstar** 22:45, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit whirled around to see her brother. "I have to go with you to stop them from *eating you!"* she mewed, digging her needle sharp claws in the soft moss. Learning she could not leave the den seemed to not kill her high spirits. ~Patchfeather~ 23:17, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

"Nu-uh!" Stagkit protested, shuffling his darker paws. "We just....mom, we reallly need to get outside, so we can make sure Ashkit's safe!" He seemed to suddenly brighten at this thought. "Yeah, so nobody comes in and tries to sit on her or something, 'cause she still hasn't opened her eyes!"**Silverstar** 00:57, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

"Yeah!" Grasskit agreed, though she had no idea what her brother just said. ---- Tanglelight had gotten over this Leaf cat entering camp and was now ripping a robin apart. ~Patchfeather~ 01:28, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

"I think you two would be best at keeping her safe in here." Shadowsong gently brushed Ashkit's back with her tail, and she squirmed closer to her mother.----- Darkstorm was grumpily sunning himself, for he had half-way fallen into a river. He did not like water.**Silverstar** 01:38, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

"Aw!" Grasskit began, sounding very disappointed. "Okay!" she added a heartbeat later, sounding as excited as ever and began to attack her fathers yellow tail on unsteady legs. ~Patchfeather~ 01:43, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit, who was already tired, flopped back down for a nap.**Silverstar** 01:53, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight finished craming prey down her throat and went to visit the nursery. She purred at the sight of all three kits fast alseep. "Have they been trouble yet?" ~Patchfeather~ 02:00, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

"A bit, they tried, but they failed." Shadowsong spoke in a purr, stroking her tail down the back of her three little furballs. "Stagkit and Grasskit tried to get out of the nursery, but Fernstorm and I stopped them. As for Ashkit..." She let her gaze rest on the pale ash-colored she-kit. "...she hasn't opened her eyes yet."**Silverstar** 21:13, August 14, 2016 (UTC)

"She'll come along soon enough," Tanglelight purred, giving her half-sister a fond look. ~Patchfeather~ 22:36, August 14, 2016 (UTC)

"Yeah, just a late bloomer..." The queen smiled down at her litter.**Silverstar** 23:55, August 14, 2016 (UTC)

"Well anyway, I just had to check on them. I'm going to go hunting." Tanglelight meowed, waving her tail in farewell and left the den. She padded toward the camp entrance and paused, wondering if she may as well take out a patrol. ----- Cardinalpaw busily checked the medicine den, making sure they had every herb they needed. Bramblestar hadn't yet said he could remain as medicine cat, but he had a good feeling about it. ~Patchfeather~ 03:13, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

Carpheart walked into camp looking exhausted. Tinycloud immediately went to her side. "What's wrong?" She said. "Nothing," she replied. — Minkclaw 14:26, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

"Alright, and good hunting to you!" The Queen called after her step daughter, waving her tail in response. Shadowsong then let her head rest on her paws, curling up closer to her kits to keep them nice 'n warm.---- Darkstorm, pelt now dry, prodded a worm in the dirt curiously.**Silverstar** 19:24, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight flicked her tail to her friend, Darkstorm. "Hey! quite trying to eat worms! Want to come hunting with me?" she meowed, in a playful manner. ~Patchfeather~ 20:35, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

Please pardon this interruption for a flash-back break! Darkstorm glanced up at the warrior before a shiver ran down his spine...wet....water...nearly drowning...Oh yes, he remembered the last time he went swimming -er, 'hunting' with Tanglelight, when they were in ShadeClan. Darkstorms weren't meant to swim. "U-Ummm..."**Silverstar** 21:50, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar discussed with Leaf about matters, before trotting out of her den after giving Leaf consent to join CaveClan. She'd announce this later, however... it was the Gathering tonight. She was about to announce who was going to go. --look me in the eye 04:27, August 16, 2016 (UTC)

Carpheart sat alone in side camp watching as Sturgeonwhisker made his way to the new deputy. "Evening," he greeted her with a soft smile. The smoke mink glanced back at Carpheart sensing that she was watching him. — Minkclaw 15:08, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Darkstorm trotted back into camp, not sure if he was happy or sad that the Gathering was over. Either way, he could see the expression on Brooksplash's face, and could tell that the mink she-cat was not pleased to not be the Clan deputy. Personally, he thought she was too...ambitious to be a good deputy. Of course, he wouldn't tell her that, he knew she'd be more than happy to smack him in the face...with her claws.**Silverstar** 15:44, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy made a few patrols, the last one being of Shimmerheart, Anglertooth, and Wildpaw, hunting patrol. She sat down. She was pleased Bramblestar had chosen her as deputy, she wished her parents were there. ~Patchfeather~ 15:47, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

(Wild's dead now, but he didn't die in the RP) Shimmerheart quietly walked along, her head held low as if she had been sent off to be punished. Of course, she wouldn't talk to Anglertooth, especially after the death of his brother...and now, the death of her own.**Silverstar** 15:53, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

(oh, okay) Anglertooth cast a sidelong glance at Shimmerheart. She wasn't as annoying as he thought she was when he was younger. But he was sure she didn't know he sort of liked her company now, since he couldn't tell her that. He stopped to scent the air, the scent of mouse flooded his jaws. ~Patchfeather~ 15:56, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

(Patch, we could start the beginning of FireSturgeon?) Sturgeonwhisker frowned once the deputy just ignored him. *Well he didn't know she harbored such feelings.* Carpheart sighed heading to the Warriors' den. — Minkclaw 15:59, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy's eyes widened and her ears pricked. She'd been so lost in thought, she hadn't even noticed Sturgeonwhisker. "I'm sorry, I didn't hear you," she mewed. ~Patchfeather~ 16:02, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Shimmerheart stopped as the tom stopped, her eyes resting on the earth at her paws. Wildpaw would've loved to come hunting with her, but...he was dead now.**Silverstar** 16:03, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Anglertooth noticed a wave a greif come off of Shimmerheart. She must still be upset about Wildpaw. He rested his tail lightly on her shoulder, a show of comfort. ~Patchfeather~ 16:09, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Shimmerheart looked over at Anglertooth in surprise. "....Thanks." Maybe he wasn't...so bad anymore?**Silverstar** 16:11, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker cast her a smile. "Its fine." — Minkclaw 18:31, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar watched Firepoppy send the patrols out. *Let's hope that I made the right choice... Although she has a quick temper, she's loyal, and I trust her.* --look me in the eye 19:33, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Anglertooth nodded and went back to scenting, then crouched and stalked around some boulders as he spotted his prey. ---- Firepoppy dipped her head. "So how are you today?" ~Patchfeather~ 21:21, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Shimmerheart crept off on her own, tasting the air for prey and detecting a nearby bird.**Silverstar** 21:28, August 20, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker shrugged nonchalantly. "I'm fine and you?" He questioned. For moons now he'd liked her but from the looks of it she had another admirer too. Carpheart.— Minkclaw 04:05, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

"I'm well. I'm just really surprised I was chosen as deputy. I know that I was a senior warrior, but I didn't expect this," Firepoppy meowed. She felt like an apprentice again, excited to see the new things that happened on her new path. ---- Anglertooth pounced and killed his mouse with a swipe of his paw. ~Patchfeather~ 12:57, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker nodded. "Yeah, you were a great pick." He replied. The smoke mink swished his dark tail and touched his nose to hers to show his support. — Minkclaw 17:18, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy took a step back at his touch, her shoulder fur bristled. She forced it to lie flat. She just wasn't used to being touched by another cat. She nodded. "Thank you. Would you like to join a hunting patrol with me?" ~Patchfeather~ 20:20, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker flinched a little hurt at her bristling towards him. The smoke nodded. "Sure, where to?" He asked. Carpheart watched the two talk. —
Minkclaw 20:57, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Shimmerheart pressed herself against the ground, watching a blackbird peck at warm. She slowed her pace, wiggled her haunches, and then leaped.**Silverstar** 21:04, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Anglertooth buried his mouse and went on to look for some more. ---- Firepoppy shrugged. "Dunno. Let's see where the world takes us," she paused. "Could you go and pick another warrior to come?" she asked. She would but to be surprisingly honest, she was kind of tired of screaming orders at every cat near her. Oh wait, she kind of just ordered Stureonwhisker. Oh well. ~Patchfeather~ 22:54, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker motioned to Flintpelt whom was chatting with Carpheart. She joined the patrol as well. "Ready?" He asked the deputy. It was obvious he had a thing for her. — Minkclaw 23:21, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy nodded, and led the way out, head and tail held high. At once she heard some scuffling among the rocks. She flicked her tail to signal to Flintpelt and Sturgeonwhisker to stay quiet. Carefully, she crept forward, the scent of vole flooding her jaws. Then she spotted it. She wiggled and sprang, killing with a quick nip to the spin. ~Patchfeather~ 23:24, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker split with Flintpelt and Carpheart stayed with Firepoppy. The dilute calico coughed and spoke. "He likes you." She commented. —
Minkclaw 23:39, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy looked at Carpheart with surprise. "He *likes* me?" she echoed. Sturgeonwhisker seemed like a nice cat, but Barktail seemed nice too, and look where that ended. "Not happening," she huffed. She wasn't going to have that happen again! though, her heart fluttered a tiny bit when she thought of the tom. *Nope. Not happening. Never. Nope. ~Patchfeather~ 23:42, August 21, 2016 (UTC)*

The bird almost let out a squawk of alarm before Shimmerheart killed it, heart pounding in her chest.---- Darkstorm rolled around, for he was bored.**Silverstar** 00:03, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Now Grasskit was ready. The golden tortoiseshell exploded out of the nursery. She slowly turned her head, trying to get a look of the camp all at once. It was beautiful! ~Patchfeather~ 12:58, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker appeared with Flintpelt, the two toms had been talking about how Sturgeonwhisker had a thing for the deputy, Firepoppy, and Flintpelt had a thing for Carpheart, who seemed totally oblivious to the fact. The grey tom narrowed his eyes at the soft look the dilute calico gave the golden tabby deputy. *And of course she wasn't even interested in him. Who was?* — Minkclaw 14:08, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy pushed Sturgeonwhisker to the back of her mind and kept on hunting. She brought down a squirrel and missed a sparrow. ~Patchfeather~ 14:46, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker shrugged wondering where the she-cats where as he and Flintpelt sat waiting in the rendezvous point. The smoke mink made his way to the stream looking at his reflection. He sighed splashing a paw snatching up a fish. Carpheart was hunting with Firepoppy. — Minkclaw 16:33, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Shadowsong rested in the nursery, stroking Ashkit's back with her tail as the dainty little molly slept. She had finally opened her eyes, but was very much shy about exploring. Stagkit, on the other hand...he was racing out of the nursery right behind Grasskit, running her over in the process. He laid on top of his dappled sister, looking around with his eyes round. "Camp is *huge*!"**Silverstar** 19:45, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit lashed her golden tail in excitement. She peered around. "I wonder who are the warriors. Who're the apprentices? we're nearly apprentices too!" she squealed and crawled out from under her brother and dahsed around. ---- Pineconeclaw groomed her brown tabby pelt, ripping burrs out of it.~Patchfeather~ 04:11, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

"We'll just have to find out!" Stagkit hollered after his sister before pelting after her. He pranced rather than ran, really, he was too giddy to walk/run right. "We're finally out of the nursery, CaveClan better be ready!"**Silverstar** 19:33, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight noticed her half-siblings had left the nursery and were racing around camp. She trotted up to them. "Hi, Stagkit, Grasskit. I can give you a tour of the camp if you like!" ~Patchfeather~ 19:57, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit rapidly shook his head, to the point where he got dizzy and practically fell over. "No, no! I wanna tour camp myself, or with Grasskit, so we can guess everything and figure it out on our own!"----- Darkstorm passed out in the sunlight.**Silverstar** 20:01, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

"Alright, then," Tanglelight meowed, waving her gray and brown tail. "If you've got any questions about which cat is who, just ask me. And for StarClan's sake, don't get into trouble!" she added, then turned and padded away to find her friend Darkstorm. She spotted him in a patch of sunlight seeping in through a gap in the caves wall. She prodded him in the flank. "Wake up, lazy-furball! I swear, all I ever see you do is sleep!" ---- Grasskit savagly nodded to the warrior, then turned to her brother. "Let's find the leaders den first!" ~Patchfeather~ 20:11, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit bounced on his paws, eyes round with energy. "Yeah, and then at night, we can sneak in there and sleep in there like we're leaders or something!" Of course, they'd hardly be able to make it past sun-down, they'd fall asleep before they could even consider going back into the leader's den.----- Darkstorm grunted and rolled over his back towards the energetic warrior. "...maybe that's because you hardly ever look at me, and whenever you do, it's just your terrible luck?"**Silverstar** 20:14, August 23, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit scrambled up to a small cave. She sniffed. This was a den! "I think I found the leaders den!" she screamed to Stagkit. "Ashkit is missing out!" ---- Tanglelight rolled her eyes. "I see you all the time," she pointed out, settling down into the sun beside him. "Anyway, Stagkit and Grasskit are out and about. I'm sure they'll cause planty of trouble." ~Patchfeather~ 00:34, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

"Poor Ashkit...we'll just drag her into her tonight!!" Stagkit declared proudly, puffing out his chest proudly and waddling when he walks, as if he was the biggest and buffest cat ever. "If only everyone could see us now!"----- Darkstorm twitched his whiskers, his eyes closed. "...As long as they don't burn down the place like Rosestar's kits did or whatever, then I'm cool with it."**Silverstar** 01:33, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit peeped inside the den, giving it a long sniff. She couldn't see too far inside, too dark. She glanced back at her brother. "We're going in!" she declared, and skipped into the den, only stopping in terror as she trodded on a yellow tabby tail. ~Patchfeather~ 02:13, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

"Grassstar and Stagstar, reporting for duty!" He paused only to gaze at his sister in confusion, and then glance in horror at the golden tail. "No, is it...?!"**Silverstar** 02:16, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm flicked his tail back to his nest and looked up with blury green eyes. Though he made out his kits clearly. "What are you doing in the warriors den?" he asked in a soft voice. "Kits aren't allowed in here," he added, more sternly, and gently nudged them out before any other cat noticed them inside. "So how is your first outing going?" ~Patchfeather~ 02:21, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

"Ugh, I knew it was dad, we just *had* to come across him." Stagkit whimpered quietly to his sister, glancing up at his father innocently. "But kits always come in here when they explore? It's...like kit-custom, you can't ignore customs!"**Silverstar** 17:07, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm let out an amused purr. "And it's a warrior-custom to chase the kits out," he waved his tail to take in the whole camp. "Trust me, you have all that to explore. It's better to do that then have another cranky warrior find you in his nest." Grasskit cast an expecting glance at Stagkit, as if she expected her brother chose what to do. ~Patchfeather~ 18:52, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit scowled under his breath. They didn't have much of a choice now, since their father standed in their way of exploring the warrior's den. "...Let's go check out...another den." He grinned, knowing just what one he'd pick.**Silverstar** 23:39, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit waved her tail at her father with a large smile on her face, and padded on. "Where to next?" ~Patchfeather~ 23:45, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Once out of earshot of their father, Stagkit glanced at his dappled sister and grinned deviously. "...Medicine Cat den, of course."**Silverstar** 23:51, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit let out a tiny gasp. "Of course! your so smart! I want to try catmint, I hear it's really good, and honey!" she squeaked, sticking her nose in the air and taking a big gulp of air. "I can't smell it!" ~Patchfeather~ 23:55, August 24, 2016 (UTC)

"We're probably not close enough yet." Stagkit responded, glancing around camp. There had to be something that gave away the Medicine Cat den...herbs laying around or something? "I wanna try Juniper Berries...I've heard they're quite sweet tasting."**Silverstar** 00:04, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit marched around, jaws and eyes wide open. She soon caught a tangy scent. "Is that it?" ~Patchfeather~ 00:06, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit tasted the air before wrinkling his nose in disgust. "Ick, yeah, I'm pretty sure it is."**Silverstar** 00:08, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit followed the scent, wrinkling her nose, until it led to a small cave, ferns grew around it and lichen hung from it's walls. Wary, she padded inside. ---- Firepoppy led her patrol back to camp and dropped her prey on the fresh-kill pile. ~Patchfeather~ 12:50, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit trotted after his sister, humming softly as they went along. What did Juniper Berries look like anyways? Ah, who knew, he'd just try random ones 'til he got to them.**Silverstar** 15:05, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit skidded to a halt. It smelled bad in the den, but it also had some sweet scents mixed in. She spotted a shimmer in the corner of her eye and turned to find a crack in the caves wall, sunlight glimmering off of the golden stickiness of honey. "I found the honey!" she annouced. ~Patchfeather~ 15:47, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Curious, Stagkit sauntered after his sister, giving the golden liquid a sniff before wrinkling his nose in disgust. "Ew, smells too sweet to me." So instead, he scoured the den for those Juniper berries. Eventually, he came across some little dark blue berries, and tried them. "I think I found the Juniper berries....they're really good!"**Silverstar** 16:06, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit gave the blue berries a sniff, then another berry caught her eye. She trotted up to the lone bright red berry. "This one looks good!" she mewed, then, without one more thought, shoved the berry into her mouth, chewed fast, and swallowed. It didn't taste that good... it didn't taste good at all.... in fact she kind of felt sick. ~Patchfeather~ 23:06, August 25, 2016 (UTC)

The mink tom glanced at his sister in confusion, a faint sign of worry flickering in his kitten-blue eyes. "Grasskit?" He began curiously, prodding her with a paw. "You alright? Did that taste really nasty?"**Silverstar** 02:07, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

For a reply, Grasskit collapsed, foam bubbling around her mouth. Her heart felt like it was slowing down, the edge of her vision seemed to darken. ~Patchfeather~ 02:12, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit let out a screech of fear, his eyes wide with fear as his sister fell down before him. "M-Momma, dad, Grasskit's ill, Grasskit's ill! She's dying!!"**Silverstar** 02:15, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm, who had been eating some fresh-kill, heard his son screaming from the medicine den. He leaped to his paws instantly and ran across the cave in almost two bounds. He entered the den to find Grasskit scrabbling at the ground feebly with her tiny paws, foam bubbling around her jaws. Fernstorm looked around wildly, not knowing what to do. Yarrow came to mind. Medicine cats used that to make cats sick, right? He carefully sniffed around. Too bad he had no clue what yarrow looked like. ~Patchfeather~ 02:21, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

"Hurry dad, hurry!" Stagkit wailed, flailing his paws about like there was a bee hovering around him. "Hurry, shove random herbs down her throat, save her!"**Silverstar** 02:26, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

At last, a scent tickled Fernstorm's nose, he remembered having when he ate crow-food as a kit. He grabbed a yellow leaf from the pile and chewed it quickly, then spat it out and held Grasskit's mouth open, sitting on her as she tried to fight. He shoved the pulp down her throat and closed her jaws with his paws wrapped tightly around her mouth. She fought on, but then began to gag, then vomited up half-chewed red berries, and fell back onto the ground, panting, her eyes closed. ~Patchfeather~ 02:33, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Stagkit quickly scurried over to his sister after she vomited, even though he felt like vomiting himself after that sight. He quickly sniffed her, eyes round with concern. "G-Grasskit, are you ok?!"**Silverstar** 02:35, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit replied with a quiet croak. Fernstorm carefully grabbed Grasskit by her scruf. "I think that's enough of an adventure today," he mewed through Grasskit's tortoieseshell fur. Her gentely nudged Stagkit out of the den with his tail and began to lead the way back to the nursery. ~Patchfeather~ 02:38, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

His ears flattened and head bowed in embarrassment, Stagkit slowly followed his father with his tail dragging. Shadowsong looked up with eyes round with worry, little Ashkit nestled at her belly. "Oh StarClan, what happened?"**Silverstar** 02:41, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm gently set Grasskit down beside Shadowsong's belly. She was breathing, but her eyes were tightly shut. "These two went into the medicine den and decided to eat random herbs," Fernstorm mewed. Though, he couldn't be too mad at them, they were only kits. And someone should have been watching them more closely. ~Patchfeather~ 11:58, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

The dark queen let out a soft sigh, gently nuzzling into the fuzzy sides of her kits. "You two should know better than to go into some den and eat things you don't know about....we couldn't lost the both of you."**Silverstar** 19:46, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Grasskit managed to make a weak nod then let her head fall back onto Shadowsong's flank. ~Patchfeather~ 21:31, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Shadowsong gently stroked the tortoiseshell kit's back with her tail before glancing back up at her mate, eyes soft for the golden tom. "Thank StarClan you heard them..."**Silverstar** 21:34, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm gave his kits a soft, grim look. He turned to Shadowsong and gave her a lick on the forehead and curled up next to her. ~Patchfeather~ 22:22, August 26, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar, after hearing of the incident with Stagkit and Grasskit, now wanted to find both Cardinalpaw and Leaf... it was time that she made the medicine cats for the Clan, and she knew that both of them would be Dustfeather's replacements. Ordering Ripplestrike to find the two cats, the dark tabby waited patiently for them to arrive. ---- Ripplestrike spotted Cardinalpaw first, so he got approached. "Bramblestar wants to see you," the black warrior told the former ShadeClan cat. --look me in the eye 04:47, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalpaw lifted his head from a doze. "Okay," he mewed, getting to his paws, he padded over to Bramblestar's den. "Bramblestar, you wanted to see me?" he asked, poking his head in. ~Patchfeather~ 13:40, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

The Queen rested her head on her paws before briefly looking over her kits, pressing herself against her golden mate. How thankful she was for them...all four of them.**Silverstar** 14:15, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar nodded. "Just waiting for -" She was interrupted as Leaf came into the den, obviously completing who was meant to be there. "Good, you're both here," Bramblestar mewed, as Leaf sat down. "Now, I want to discuss with you both about the medicine cat situation." --look me in the eye 19:39, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalpaw listened closely, eager to hear what Bramblestar had to say. Though, he was worried that Leaf may become medicine cat instead of him. What would he do then? ~Patchfeather~ 21:28, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

"...I was thinking that both of you can replace Dustfeather," Bramblestar went on. "...CaveClan could do with two medicine cats." --look me in the eye 22:11, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalpaw's ears pricked. So he could be CaveClan's medicine cat still, but would just half to work beside Leaf. He shrugged. That sounded fine. "That would be great, Bramblestar. I accept." ~Patchfeather~ 22:14, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar nodded, before turning to Leaf, who murmured her acceptance, the white cat shuffling her paws nervously. Bramblestar then spoke again: "We'll need you both to go to the Starpool soon... you both need to receive your medicine cat names." --look me in the eye 22:18, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalpaw nodded. "Thank you, Bramblestar. It means a lot," he murmured calmly, though he really wanted to bounce around like an excited kit. He padded out of the den. He'd speak to Leaf about when they'd go to the Starpool later. He wanted to check on the kits. He had heard what happened so he wanted to make sure they were alright. He made his way to the nursery. ~Patchfeather~ 22:31, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

Leaf left Bramlestar's den, heading to the medicine den to clean up the herb stores. --look me in the eye 23:33, August 27, 2016 (UTC)

A few moons later, Grasskit eyed a ladybug that had flown into the camp. She didn't make any move to catch it though, just crouched staring at it. ---- Cardinalcloud had traveled to the Starpool and recived his full name during the past few moons. --- Firepoppy lay in a sunny patch outside the warriors cave. She half hoped Strugeonwhisker would come along sometime. She an him had become good friends in the past few moons.~Patchfeather~ 23:55, September 1, 2016 (UTC)

Leaf had received her medicine cat name of Leafsedge at the Starpool as well. Currently, the white she-cat was out of camp looking for some herbs. --look me in the eye 04:33, September 2, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight snoozed in the sun. She had grown quite plump over the past moon. It was pretty clear she was expecting kits, though she for some reason had no idea she was. ~Patchfeather~ 00:44, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

(This'll be interesting) Shadowsong quietly watched Tanglelight, curious as to how Fernstorm would react...She also wondered who the father was.**Silverstar** 01:01, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight raised her head, noticing she was being watched. "Hi, Shadowsong!" she mewed cheerfully when she spotted Shadowsong. ~Patchfeather~ 01:07, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Shadowsong flicked her tail. "Good morning, Tanglelight."**Silverstar** 02:02, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar called her Clan for a meeting. Fernstorm and Shadowsong's kits had reached apprentice age, and now she would be assigning their mentors. When her Clan had quietened down, she spoke:

"Cats of CaveClan, today we have three new apprentices - Ashkit, Grasskit, and Stagkit." As she called their names, the tabby beckoned with her tail for them to step forward. "You have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From now until you receive your warrior names, you shall be known as Ashpaw, Grasspaw, and Stagpaw. Your mentors - in that order - are Pineconeclaw, Shimmerheart, and Ripplestrike. May these warriors pass on all they know to you." ---- Ripplestrike's ears pricked in interest. *...Wow, I'm going to be a mentor?* He got up and went towards the front to meet Stagpaw, touching noses with the young tom. --look me in the eye 06:50, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm watched his kits in pride. It seemed like they were just born yesterday. ---- Pineconeclaw eagerly bounded up to Ashpaw. Pineconeclaw was still a young warrior, Ashpaw being her first apprentice. She had much to teach the younger cat, and there was no doubt Ashpaw would teach her mentor a thing or two. ---- Grasspaw cowared when her mentor was named. She didn't know Shimmerheart well. At least it wasn't someone mean, by what she has heard. ---- Tanglelight watched her half-siblings made apprentice and began cheering their names. She wa cut off by a weird feeling in her belly. She glanced around, bewildered when it happened again. ~Patchfeather~ 12:08, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Ashpaw's whiskers quivered with excitement as she nervously touched her nose to Pineconeclaw's, shyly glancing up at the warrior. Stagpaw, on the other hand, boldly approached Ripplestrike with a few long, swift strides. He kept a serious expression as he touched his nose to his new mentor's, making it clear that he was not interested in playing around like most newly made apprentices. He had both matured and grown swiftly in the past moon or so.---- Shadowsong watched the ceremony with an almost pained expression. It was clear that she'd miss having her kits in the nursery, nestled against her warm belly. But secretly, she was excited to start hunting with them, and return to patrolling with her mate.---- Shimmerheart glanced down at Grasspaw, eyes round with surprise before leaning down to touch her nose to Grasspaw's. A small pang of sadness hit her heart, and her mind went to Wildpaw. How she missed her little brother....**Silverstar** 16:16, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

"First, go make your nest, then we can go tour the territory, oh! then we can... oh, well, it'll probably be night by then, but tomorrow you can come on a hunting patrol with me," Pineconeclaw mewed, seeming even more excited then her apprentice. --- Grasspaw touched her nose to Shimmerheart's. "What are we doing first?" she asked, quietly. ---- After the ceremony, Tanglelight padded over the medicine den. Cardinalcloud touched his nose to hers when she entered. "Hi, Tanglelight. What can I help you with?" he purred. Tanglelight flicked her tail towards her belly. "I've been having... weird feelings.." she said, simpily. ~Patchfeather~ 17:48, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Ashpaw nodded, and without a word, scuttled over to the moss pile to grab a few clumps before hurrying over to the apprentice's den to make her nest.----- "You're going to make your nest in the Apprentice's den. Then, come back here, and we'll talk about what we're going to do tomorrow." Shimmerheart explained with a small, firm nod.**Silverstar** 01:45, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw nodded, then padded towards the moss pile and followed her sister. She hoped they'd get to do stuff together. ~Patchfeather~ 01:55, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

Noticing that Grasspaw and Ashpaw were making their nests, Ripplestrike firmly told Stagpaw to make his nest as well. --look me in the eye 01:57, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

Turning sharply on his paws, Stagpaw marched after his littermates to make his nest as well. Ashpaw proudly placed her moss down neatly, nodding at it in a content manner.**Silverstar** 21:28, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw made her nest besides Ashpaw's. She twitched her nose, realizing they'd have a new denmate. Hopefully she wasn't annoying. ~Patchfeather~ 22:08, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

Tinycloud basked in the sun next to Nightshade. Meanwhile, Fernkit and Reedkit were wrestling not to far from the medicine den. "Hey!" Reedkit whined. The grey tabby tom narrowed his eyes. "Don't hey me." He snapped. Leopardkit glanced up from her perch on the rock that the leader called meetings from. Mallowkit sneered before coughing nonchalantly.

Carpheart glanced at Sturgeonwhisker whom had been seeing Firepoppy more each day. — Minkclaw 16:15, September 6, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy sent out some hunting patrols then went to grab something to eat. She picked a mouse and settled in a shaded patch. It was the middle of greenleaf, and everything seemed well. While she was out hunting on her own, she'd stumbled over CaveClan's old border with ShadeClan. It was filled with streams and trees. Perhaps CaveClan could expand... ~Patchfeather~ 17:27, September 6, 2016 (UTC)

Stagpaw and Ashpaw were quite eager, going on their first patrol near the old ShadeClan border. This was great! Not only were they getting to tour their own territory, but catch a glimpse of ShadeClan as well.**Silverstar** 21:33, September 6, 2016 (UTC)

"If ShadeClan hadn't spilt up, you'd be living here right now," Pineconeclaw mewed. "It's full of trees and streams. It's quite pretty." Grasspaw sniffed along the old border. Faint scents of cats wafted her scent glands, almost covered up by the scent of pine and maple. "Can we go look around?" she eagerly asked, looking to Shimmerheart with pleading eyes. ~Patchfeather~ 22:13, September 6, 2016 (UTC)

Stagpaw pricked his dark muddy-brown ears in interest. "Really?" He asked, a bit taken back by this, but amazed at the same time, no doubt about it. Ashpaw eyed the territory ahead of them with eyes round with surprise.---- Shimmerheart hesitated, glancing over at ShadeClan's former territory. Heck, why not? ShadeClan was no more, and besides, ShadeClan cats had joined CaveClan anyways. They were just taking....a look around. "Alright, I think that'd be fine."**Silverstar** 00:56, September 7, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw let out a squeak of excitement and flew over the border, dead leaves flying up from beneath her paws. She sniffed. Leafy scents touched her nose. The sharp tang of herbs. Trees dappled her pelt with shade. Why in the world had ShadeClan left this beautiful place? she could just picture herself racing through these trees, proud to call herself a ShadeClan warrior. A tiny pang of guilt stabbed her. Was she being disloyal to CaveClan for thinking such things? ~Patchfeather~ 02:20, September 7, 2016 (UTC)

Ashpaw bounced on her paws with a little giggle before tearing after her sister, Stagpaw right on his pale tabby sister's tail. Moments later, the pointed tom leaped onto a mossy boulder, puffing out his chest proudly. "I'm Stagstar, leader of ShadeClan!!"**Silverstar** 02:23, September 7, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw followed her brother, eagerly climbing onto a rock just below him. "And I'm Grasssong, deputy of ShadeClan!" Grasspaw once more felt so at home here. *I've not even been here for an hour, but I want to stay forever! ~Patchfeather~ 02:31, September 7, 2016 (UTC)*

Already tired from the running and all the excitement, Ashpaw flopped beneath them. "And I'm...Ashsomethingorother, the ShadeClan elder." She mumbled with a yawn, rolling onto her side. Stagpaw prodded her belly. "Heeey, get up, Ashfart!"**Silverstar** 02:38, September 7, 2016 (UTC)

"She's not an Ashfart," Grasspaw defended, playfully cuffing her brothers ear. "She's an Ash*paw.* But isn't this place great? Am I the only one who wants to stay?" ---- Cardinalcloud felt Tanglelight's belly. Afterwords, a frown grew on his face. "It's... your expecting kits." Tanglelight's eyes widened. "What!?" ~Patchfeather~ 02:57, September 7, 2016 (UTC)

Creekfrost sniffed at the edge of a stream. He spotted fish, large fish, swimming along the current. "Plenty of fish," he murmured half to himself. Grasspaw sniffed the air. Something smelled werid.... was that cat scent?~Patchfeather~ 02:15, September 14, 2016 (UTC)

Orchidbloom was dragging the flailing Cloudpaw out of the water, while Sunpaw and Rainpaw laughed their faces off. Sunfire, meanwhile, wasn't really hunting....at least not for prey, for she smelled CaveClan scum nearby. She *would* get her revenge on that pitiful Clan her mother had lead.----- Stagpaw stumbled over a rock before landing next to Grasspaw, twitching his whiskers. "What's wrong?" Ashpaw was busy watching a squirrel quickly move about, and seemed a bit frightened by it.**Silverstar** 00:32, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

"I smell other cats!" Grasspaw announced. Pineconeclaw lifted her head and gave a good sniff. "RockClan," she hissed. ~Patchfeather~ 13:12, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

(Patch we need to move FireXSturgeon along) Carpheart sat with Tinycloud her pale gaze on Firepoppy. Meanwhile, Sturgeonwhisker stalked into camp carrying a bird, two mice, and a vole. He dropped everything except one then headed to the deputy. "Mind sharing?" He asked eyes bright. — Minkclaw 14:48, September 28, 2016 (UTC)\

Firepoppy gave a stiff nod. "Okay," she said, in a formal voice. She knew Sturgeonwhisker liked her, it made her a bit uncomfortable. But at the same time, she thought he was quite handsome. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 15:03, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker smiled before pushing the prey towards her so she could get the first bite, respectively. The brown smoke mink watched as Carpheart eyed them. *What was her problem?* — Minkclaw 15:53, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy dipped her head, then took a bite of the prey. He was polite. Her mind drifted to Barktail. If it were him, he'd have eaten half the prey by now instead of letting her take a peice.

Tanglelight's relationship with Cardinalcloud ebbed. She cared for him, but not in that way. He was her friend, nothing more. But no matter what, she'd love these kits with all of her heart. She gave birth four sunrises ago, to three kits. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 16:11, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker smiled thoughtfully before glancing over at Pinenose. She was heavily pregnant and was due any day. — Minkclaw 16:31, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight named her three Seakit, Lakekit, and Mayflykit. Mayflykit opened his kitten blue eyes that day and was wobbling around, exploring the Clan.

Firepoppy watched as Mayflykit padded out of the nursery for the first time. He looked excited and scared. The Clan was doing very well, with so many queens in the nursery. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 16:38, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Seakit, the newborn kit's eyes sealed and ears still deaf, leaned against his mother. He seemed so innocent thus far...if only he'd stay like that forever.---- Stagpaw staggered to his paws, puffing out his chest bravely. "Let's beat 'em!" He howled in almost a triumphant manner, while Ashpaw flexed her claws.---- Sunfire went silent, slowly plotting as she crept forward.**Silverstar** 19:55, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Creekfrost led the patrol deeper. He halted suddenly. CaveClan scent filled his nose. Rustling from a clump of bracken betrayed a totoiseshell she-cat poking her head through. She squeaked and ducked back into cover.

"They're right there!" Grasspaw yelpped in panic. Pineconeclaw's ears flicked upright at once. She flew out of the bracken and faced the patrol. "What are you doing on *CaveClan* territory?" she spat. Grasspaw stared wide eyed out at the warrior. What was she doing? Creekfrost narrowed his eyes. "*Your* territory?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 21:57, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Orchidbloom stepped forward to stand beside Creekfrost, her pelt bristling. "This is *ShadeClan's* territory, CaveClan scum. You can't just lay claim to it." *Not without a fight*. She longed to say this, but bit her lip.

Stagpaw and Ashpaw looked up in surprise, scuttling forward, only to be blocked by Shimmerheart. The silver tabby let out a low growl, flattening her monochromatic ears. "We can, and we just did."**Silverstar** 02:34, September 29, 2016 (UTC)

What? This was CaveClan territory now? Grasspaw stared wide eyed at the older warriors. *They're lying!* she realized with a jolt. *Cool!*  "Yeah, get out of here and crawl back to your Clan of weaklings!" Grasspaw hissed, leaping up to stand beside her mentor.

Creekfrost flicked his tail. They were lying, he just knew it. "Where's your scent markers?" he asked, gruffly. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 13:46, September 29, 2016 (UTC)

"You're getting your stench all over them, RockClan scum." Shimmerheart curled a lip.**Silverstar** 14:59, September 30, 2016 (UTC)

Creekfrost flattened his ears. "I know your lying, ju -" he was cut off when he let out a hiss of surprise as the brown tabby, Pineconeclaw, ran forward and slashed her claws across his face. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 22:56, September 30, 2016 (UTC)

Orchidbloom flattened her ears as the CaveClan cat came forth and attacked Creekfrost. "If you wanna fight, then you'll get one!" Without a second thought, she launched herself at Shimmerheart, who met her mid-air, the two she-cats wrestling each other on the ground.**Silverstar** 14:51, October 1, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw watched the older cats in confusion. She cowared into the bracken clump. She had always dreamed of her first battle, but she really didn't expect it to happen so soon!

Creekfrost battered Pineconeclaw away. He pressed his head close to the ground, a paw placed heavily on his eye. He let go, keeping his eye firmly shut, although it was so painful. He lanched himself onto the she-cat and they locked together, kicking and spitting. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 19:57, October 1, 2016 (UTC)

Orchidbloom definitely had the upper-hand, for she was much more experienced, and quite a bit bigger. She was quick to pin Shimmerheart, raking her claws down the silver tabby's back.---- Stagpaw pressed against Ashpaw and Grasspaw, Ashpaw shivering in fear. "Don't worry, I won't let 'em hurt you!" Stagpaw promised his littermates, fur fluffed.**Silverstar** 20:07, October 1, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw puffed out her chest. "We need to help them," she declared, although she trembled with fear. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:39, October 2, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker sat with Firepoppy. "May I ask why your so bitter towards getting to know someone romantically?" He asked. — Minkclaw 19:07, October 2, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy's fur prickled. She hadn't expected this question. "I..." she began slowly. She hated to talk about this, but eh, he asked and he was a good friend. "I liked this one tom, his name was Barktail. He was just using me for kits though, he never loved me. And he killed a Clanmate so..." she replied, flatly, digging her claws into the ground and pretending it was Barktail's eyes. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 19:32, October 2, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker cast a glance at the exit. "Is he still alive?" — Minkclaw 19:42, October 2, 2016 (UTC)

Mayflykit nodded, looking a bit relieved. --- Now feeling calmer, Cardinalcloud made his way toward the nursery, still looking pretty mad. Firepoppy closed her eyes. "I know... I love you too. You're nothing like Barktail, you are amazing compared to him," she murmured softly. Was he going to ask her...? Was she ready for this? —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:58, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

(Just looked at archives and ceremonies page - Mink, can you please move Turtle's kits ceremonies back a bit? It says in Archive 16 that she'd finally given birth to them on Oct. 14... which is like, a week ago, and I'm p sure that one moon here is a week irl, so they'd only be like a moon-and-a-half old (as bc timeskip). Also, Whiskers and Patch, do you want me to give the Shadowstorm kits their warrior names? I'll do it when Bramble and Ripple return if you want me to - Whiskers, if you want to go ahead with it, please tell me Stag and Ash's warrior names ('think I know what ash's is, but please confirm). ty c:) "...I've been wanting to say this for a while," the leader admitted, Bramblestar's head moving to the side. "I... kinda like you?" --look me in the eye 03:34, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

(yeah, they'd only be a moon and a half right now, not ready yet. And yeah, you can make them warriors once Whiskers replies) Grasspaw lied, snoozing in the sun once more. Cardinalcloud jabbed Tanglelight in the ribs and she woke with a start. "What do you want?" she huffed. "Your *kits* have been in the medicine den." —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 15:54, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

(Actually the fastest the kits age is the role players choice and I have plans to be happening soon with them..) Turtletail smiled as she watched Snowkit and Darkkit arguing. The white tom lashed his tail before rolling his eyes. "I bet you he didn't even want to be in our squad." The blue-eyed tom snapped. Darkkit shrugged. "Not my problem. It was Lakekit's request."

Sturgeonwhisker sat down before finally continuing."I love you Firepoppy. Will you be my mate?" —
Minkclaw 16:44, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy closed her eyes. This cat was nothing like Barktail, she could trust him. But what if that changed? And what if he was lying? Barktail did a good job hiding it... But when she looked into Sturgeonwhisker's eyes she could see the deep love reflecting within them, she could see no trace of lies. And when he told her he loved her, he really did seem like he meant it, when with Barktail, Firepoppy had sometimes doubted it. Fluffing out her pelt, she lifted her head to look him right in the eye. "I will, Sturgeonwhisker. I will," she knew this was the right choice, she could trust him, lean on his shoulder when she needed one, she could always count on him. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 16:52, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker felt his heart soar. *She said yes!* He thought happily before excitedly and repeatedly licking her cheek both playfully and with affection.

Carpheart sat in camp with her mate Flintpelt. They'd both started to feel affection and Carpheart didn't know what anything meant but he made her happy. Happy since Tinycloud died. — Minkclaw 17:27, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

(k @Patch, will do when Bramble returns to camp/Whiskers replies.) In embarrassment, Ripplestrike started to purr, before letting out a sigh. "...Um, I kinda like you as well...?" He seemed unsure with his words, but Ripplestrike knew that - deep down, whether he showed it or not - he cared. --
look me in the eye 18:09, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy purred, for the first time in a long time, feeling truely happy. She returned his licks. "I love you, Sturgeonwhisker," she purred. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 18:41, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar looked relieved. "I'm glad..." she whispered, "but Ripplestrike, I wanted to ask you something else... do you want to be my mate?" The leader's green eyes were desperate, yet a look of love was in them, for her closest friend... RTipplestrike hesitated, but he slowly nodded. "I will, Bramblestar... I will." --look me in the eye 18:44, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker nuzzled her softly after the happy licking. Leaning back he tackled her playfully eyes bright. —
Minkclaw 18:51, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy batted the toms face playfully. At last, she had everything she could ever ask for! A fine mate, a member of *the best Clan.* And was even deputy of it! —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 18:57, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

(Fine with me, they're Stagleap and Ashbreeze) Seakit leaned back once he spotted Cardinalcloud confronting Tanglelight, and grinned to himself. "Just on time..."**Silverstar** 21:08, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight flicked her tail, looking annoyed. Lakekit didn't cause much trouble, but her two sons were always up to something. "Seakit, Mayflykit! Come out here at once!" Mayflykit coolly slid out of the nursery and gave himself a sleepy look. "What is it, Mama?" he asked, looking as if he had no idea what was going on. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 23:07, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

An almost careless look, Seakit coolly slipped over to his mother. "Yeah?"**Silverstar** 00:00, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight wagged her tail like a dog. "Did you trash the medicine den?" she asked, not really looking like she cared. Mayflykit looked up at her, looking deeply hurt and confused. "Of course not! We were in the nursery. But I did catch a glimpse of Ashpaw and Grasspaw sneaking in there." —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:05, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

"I think they're blaming Stagpaw's moodiness on Cardinalcloud." Seakit grunted, studying his paw with a small shrug.**Silverstar** 00:14, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud snorted, looking like he didn't know if this was a lie (he's so stupid), while Tanglelight watched a butterfly, paying no attention to anything now. Meanwhile, Grasspaw's head shot up from snoozing outside the apprentices den. Did someone call her? —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:30, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

"Mom!!!" Seakit spoke loudly our of nowhere, glancing up impatiently now. With a swish of his tail, he continued tensely. "I have a question, and I need answers."**Silverstar** 01:32, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud ignored his son and padded lightly over to the apprentices den. He was sure they did nothing wrong, but he shouldn't acuse the kits without speaking to the two apprentices first. "Hi, Grasspaw, Ashpaw," Cardinalcloud greeted them. "You didn't happen to be... in the medicine den... did you?" Grasspaw looked at the tom, looking bewildered. "No. *I've* been sleeping all day.."

Tanglelight took a moment before she noticed her kit. "Oh, did you say something... uh..." she paused. What was this one named again..? Oh, right! "Seakit..?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:38, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

"I've been daydreaming all day." A lazy yawn came from the pale tabby she-cat as she rolled on her back. "Besides, herbs are nasty!!"

Seakit lashed his tail impatiently. "Who's my father?!" His voice rose, unable to bear the anger that bubbled up in his blood.**Silverstar** 01:39, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud nodded. "That's what I thought. A certain two kits blamed you for trashing the medicine den, I knew you hadn't though," Grasspaw's sleepy look was replaced with an extreme seriousness. "...What...? They did.... *what?"*

Tanglelight flicked her tail. "Oh, he was um..." She didn't want to tell her son.. he may blab. "Uh... a kittypet." Mayflykit stared up at his mother, looking unconvinced. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:46, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Ashpaw blinked her blue eyes in surprise, but relaxed moments later. "...typical of kits, I guess."

Seakit lashed his long tail. "And I'm a badger's uncle," the tomkit said sarcastically, spitting out the words like venom. "I don't believe, I want the *real* answer!"**Silverstar** 01:49, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

"I'm gonna murder them!" Grasspaw growled. Stupid kits! She hated them!

Tanglelight's attenion was already slipping away to a pebble. "Well, I don't know what to tell you... that's your dad and that's that..." Mayflykit glared at his mother. Did she even care about them? —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins**

"Don't kill Seakit!!" Ashpaw blurted out, blinking her eyes innocently as she did so.

Seakit growled in anger, curling a lip and sinking his claws into the earth. "Liar!" He snarled, flattening his ears angrily with his fangs bared. "I'll find it out, I'll uncover the truth! And when I do...you'll be sorry, you'll regret ever lying to us!"**Silverstar** 02:02, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw glared at her sister. "I will kill everyone in my path."

"Hmmm..." Tanglelight repiled, batting the pebble. Mayflykit glared at her. "We're kits and smarter then her... Do you really think you can uncover the truth?" he asked his brother. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:09, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Ashpaw slowly cocked her head in confusion, a bit of worry as well. "...even me 'n Stagpaw?"

Seakit curled his lip once more before sneering, slapping his tail against the ground in his anger. "Easily, and she'll regret ever lying to us." His eyes became dark as he said this.**Silverstar** 02:11, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw rolled her eyes. "Except you! and Stagpaw!" she paused. "Everyone except those two... idiot spawn...."

Mayflykit flicked his tail, looking a bit concerned. "Dude, chill. I'm gonna be mad two, but nothing too bad, okay? You sound like you're going to kill her." —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:21, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

"They're kits!" Ashpaw repeated, rolling on the ground again. "It's going to happen with a ton of others as well...'til someone sits on them."

Seakit flashed his brother a glare. "Our lives are practically a *lie*, Mayflykit!" The tomkit snapped, turning away with an angry curse under his breath. "...Someone's going to die, not saying it's mom...but we'll let fate decide."**Silverstar** 02:48, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw let out a huff and curled back up in the weak sunshine and closed her eyes.

Mayflykit watched his brother walk away, not really taking him seriously. "Okay grouchy-poo," he huffed under his breath, giving Tanglelight a last scornful look, then trotted over to the nursery to attack the newly repared walls. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:59, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

(okay, whiskers, will do when bramble returns and summons her Clan... so in the next few posts c:) For a while, Bramblestar and Ripplestrike purred, before the dark tabby rose back onto her paws. "Let's get back. I've got a warrior ceremony to do." Shaking out her fur, the two cats headed on their way back to camp. --look me in the eye 03:28, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Seakit paced restlessly around camp, plotting to himself. He would get his answers, he knew that for sure...but how?**Silverstar** 11:29, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm padded into camp with a hare. His gaze fell on his eldest daughter, who was attacking a pebble like a kit, while her kits were no where to be seen. He rolled his eyes and placed the hare on the fresh-kill pile. He had higher hopes of her being a mother, she, depsite her hyperness, seemed like she'd make a good one, but the past few moons she seemed to be becoming more careless.

Firepoppy returned to camp, light-footed after what had happened between her and Sturgeonwhisker. At last she had a mate she could trust with her life. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 13:28, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker beside the deputy, the brown smoke mink curled his tail beside Firepoppy's.

Lakekit watched as her mother scolded her brothers. The grey and white tabby sneered before turning to Darkkit. "Hm.." She muttered.

Darkkit coughed lightly before turning calmly to Snowkit. "What do you suppose we do?" He asked his snowy white brother. —
Minkclaw 14:36, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw sniffed, trotting over to her father and tackling him to the ground. ---- Mayflykit attacked the nursery walls. --- Oilpelt hunted with Anglertooth. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 16:53, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

After arriving back at camp, Ripplestrike reluctantly went off into the crowd of warriors, while Bramblestar paused at the foot of the Meetingwhatever, grooming her dark tabby fur. *I'll see Leafsedge or Cardinalcloud later,* she thought, looking at herself. She could see a few scratches that needed attending to. (on my next post, i'll perform the ceremony.) --look me in the eye 18:24, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Seakit slinked into the apprentice's den, seeing that the apprentices were outside. He began plotting, the strong kit finding himself extremely enraged, to the point where he'd kill.**Silverstar** 19:52, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grasspaw pulled away from her wrestle with her father when she saw Bramblestar and Ripplestrike return to camp. They seemed... oddly happy for being covered in scratches, but who cares? Her warrior ceremony would be soon! —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 20:05, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

(yes, oddly happy xD) Shrugging that tought aside, the dark tabby leapt onto the Meetingwhatever, summoning her Clan together. It was time that she performed this ceremony... When the Clan was quiet, she spoke: "Cats of CaveClan, today we have three new warriors. Grasspaw, Ashpaw, Stagpaw, step forward. It's time for you to receive you warrior names." As they came forward, the leader spoke the ritual words. "I, Bramblestar, leader of CaveClan, ask my warrior ancestors to look over these three apprentices. They have learnt the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as warriors in their turn. Grasspaw, Ashpaw, and Stagpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to defend this Clan, even at the cost of your life?"

"I do!"

"Then I grant you your warrior names. Ashpaw, you warrior name will be Ashbreeze: Grasspaw, you shall be known as Grassclaw, and Stagpaw will be Stagleap. StarClan honours your enthusiasm and courage, and we welcome you three as full warriors of CaveClan." Stepping back, she left the Clan to cheer for the new warriors. --look me in the eye 20:25, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grassclaw lifted her head high as the Clan cheered her name. She hadn't been expecting... Grass*claw*... something more like Grasspetal, but Grassclaw was way awesomer! —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 20:31, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Ashbreeze's heterochromatic eyes lit up with happiness! Her name, it was simply amazing, she loved it so much!--- Stagleap even seemed quite pleased, standing tall and proud as the clan chanted his new warrior name. Finally...he made it.**Silverstar** 20:33, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

After the warrior ceremony, Bramblestar dismissed the meeting, hopping off the Meetingwhatever with a flick of her tail. She then went over to the medicine den, where Leafsedge was treating Ripplestrike's wounds. The white cat turned towards the leader as she approached. "Your new mate has told me that you lost a life out there," the medicine cat mewed. "Take it easy over the next few days: I've heard that losing a life is not easy." She then turned back to fixing up Ripplestrike's wounds again. --look me in the eye 22:19, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Brooksplash sat by herself, still angered that she hadn't been made deputy. Her mother had been leader for moons, for StarClan's sake! She was perfectly intelligent and quick-witted, not some idiot who was all about strength and crushing everything.**Silverstar** 22:34, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar sighed as Leafsedge moved on to her, after the medicine cat ordered Ripplestrike into the warriors' den to rest. --look me in the eye 22:50, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Galaxystorm sat by herself, narrowing her eyes. Her optics were filled with darkness, surrounded by emotionlessness. Darkstorm sat across camp, as far away from his mother as possible. He wished she had other kits...the dark tabby had no friends, did not know his father, had a cruel mother, and had a lack of siblings.**Silverstar** 22:51, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

Grassclaw decided to begin her vigil later... it was still light out, that was okay, right? She sat down to groom out her pelt, enjoying repeating her new name over and over again in her head. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 23:20, October 21, 2016 (UTC)

As Wolfcry sat in the corner of camp, he gave Galaxystorm a death glare. Her...she was the one who ruined his life, his family's life.**Silverstar** 15:30, October 22, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar got sent to her den after being treated as well. --look me in the eye 18:12, October 22, 2016 (UTC)

After sitting vigil, Grassclaw was still somehow wide awake after a day and night being awake. "Anyone wanna go hunting?" she called, excitedly. Wow, her first hunt as a warrior! Maybe there'd be a fox, her first fight as a warrior! or her first badger fight as a warrior! and ever. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:42, October 23, 2016 (UTC)

Ashbreeze glanced up at her sister nervously, shuffling her pale-colored paws. "O-Okay...I'll go, I guess..." Stagpaw had already stalked off into the warrior's den to sleep, because he was exhuasted.**Silverstar** 14:38, October 23, 2016 (UTC)

Grassclaw nodded, then turned and excitedly left camp, running through the sleet like it was nothing. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 15:24, October 23, 2016 (UTC)

Ripplestrike was also out of camp... the warrior having some fresh air for a bit. He padded further away from camp... he felt like a walk, yes, but it was *chilly*... --look me in the eye 19:34, October 23, 2016 (UTC)

Fernstorm paced around the chilly camp. Where were Ashbreeze and Grassclaw? They had left that morning, it was almost sunset! —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 23:25, October 25, 2016 (UTC)

Bramblestar laid in her den, feeling worried. Ripplestrike was gone... and she didn't know where. Where had her mate gone? Oh well, she wasn't going to look now... she felt a little bit sick, truth be told. *I'll feel fine in the morning... when I've slept this off.* --look me in the eye 04:40, October 26, 2016 (UTC)

Oilpelt spilt away from Anglertooth, to find a brown tabby pouncing on him. He let out a yowl of surprise. She was so fast! Suddenly, she dove for his throat, her fangs digging deep into it, blood welled and spattered on her snarling face. He struggled to breath, but he was drowning in his own blood. Slowly, he slumped to the ground, and only until he stopped moving did Almondkit let go and scampered away. Eh, no big deal.

After searching for awhile, Anglertooth had found Oilpelt's body and returned him to camp. Firepoppy was unsurprisingly outraged. She paced the clearing. "RockClan killed our Clanmate!" she snarled. "We must get revenge!"—**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:27, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

Shimmerheart seemed to suddenly jump up out of nowhere. "Kiiiiilllll!"**Silverstar** 03:53, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

Anglertooth whipped his tail with agreement. Without even thinking about contacting Bramblestar and think things through, Firepoppy made up her mind. "We're sending out a revenge patrol! Shimmerheart, Anglertooth, Rockfoot, myself, Shadowsong, Shadowshade, Carpheart, Cariboupaw, and Darkstorm have been chosen to go! We leave as soon as we can!" she snarled, then, without waiting for any reply, bounded out of camp, not caring to look back to see if they followed.

Mayflykit watched with curious eyes. Cool, someone died. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:57, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

(mayflykit xP. also, yesyesyes make it firepoppy's doing, ahaha, this'll be interesting.) Bramblestar watched as Firepoppy left camp with her patrol. Usually, she'd tell the deputy not to fight... but the leader still felt ill. *Let's see what happens with them... meanwhile, I'll go find Leafsedge or Cardinalcloud.* --look me in the eye 04:30, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

After the battle, Firepoppy hurried back to camp, paws numb from snow, at least it cleaned off some of the blood from battle... She padded into camp, slower. Well... CaveClan won that battle... —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 04:00, October 28, 2016 (UTC)

Almondkit stopped by CaveClan's border, letting out a sniff of disgust when she caught the scent of the cats whom lived there. "This is where I killed him," she meowed, circling a spot where the snow was stanned red. Where was his body? She had been looking forward to showing her siblings. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:03, November 5, 2016 (UTC)

(apologies for delay in ceremonies, I didn't realize that patch had posted) Bramblestar jumped awkwardly onto the Meetingwhatever, as she needed to perform some ceremonies. Due to the blizzard, she'd put them off slightly... but there was no sign of Grassclaw, Ashbreeze, or Ripplestrike. *Ripplestrike.* It pained the she-cat a lot... they'd just become mates, and then he just was gone like that? She was scared for him...

First, she called up Tanglelight's kits - Seakit, Lakekit, and Mayflykit. "You have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to become apprentices. From this day on, you shall be known as Seapaw, Lakepaw, and Mayflypaw. Mayflypaw, you shall be mentored by Carpheart, Wolfcry will mentor Lakepaw, and Firepoppy will be the mentor of Seapaw." The Clan cheered for the three new apprentices, before they stepped back. Quietening down the crowd, Bramblestar continued:

"Turtletail's kits are also ready to become apprentices, and may they also come forward." Five kits stepped up to the bottom of the Meetingwhatever, and Bramblestar repeated the ritual words, making the kits apprentices, with new names of Snowpaw, Lichenpaw, Darkpaw, Spiritpaw, and Graypaw. "In that order, your mentors will be Fernstorm, Brooksplash, Rockfoot, Shadowsong, and Sturgeonwhisker. May they train you to be valuable warriors of CaveClan, and make us proud." At this, the Clan broke into more cheers for the new apprentices. --look me in the eye 06:28, November 5, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy touched her nose briefly to Seapaw's. Mayflypaw coolly touched his nose to Carpheart's, trying not to look excited. Rockfoot and Fernstorm touched their noses to Snowpaw and Darkpaw's. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 12:22, November 5, 2016 (UTC)

After all the new mentors and apprentices had touched noses, Bramblestar carefully jumped off the Meetingwhatever before going back to her den. ---- Leafsedge watched the new warrior apprentices and their mentors. --look me in the eye 03:17, November 6, 2016 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud watched his kits be made apprentices. He felt slightly proud yet slightly annoyed that they had been born. Meanwhile, Rockfoot approached Brooksplash, whom he thought was pretty. "Hi!"—**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 13:14, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw mentally groaned. Great, him, the trouble child, stuck with the deputy...although, this would probably turn out to be *very* amusing for him.---- Brooksplash briefly glanced back at the tom who greeted her. "Hello,"**Silverstar** 00:04, November 11, 2016 (UTC)

"Make your nest first, Then we're touring the whole territory; no breaks," Firepoppy sternly told her new apprentice. ---- "Do you want to join me while I show Snowpaw the territory?" Rockfoot asked, hopefully. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:13, November 11, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw simply shrugged his shoulders carelessly before stalking off to the apprentice's den. *No breaks? We'll see 'bout that...*---- Brooksplash let her gaze trail over to her mother, Pebblepelt, who lazily lay outside of the elder's den. No point in staying around to argue with her... "Sure, I'll tag along."**Silverstar** 00:18, November 11, 2016 (UTC)

Mayflypaw followed his brother, ready to make his nest. The night before he had already picked out a spot, and he was determined to claim it as his own. ----- Rockfoot waved his tail. "Great! Come on, Snowpaw. We're going to tour the territory right now," he mewed, then led the way out of camp. 00:23, November 11, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw didn't bother to make his nest in any special spot. If he wanted to sleep somewhere...well, he'd just steal that nest, the other cat could get over it.---- Brooksplash nodded slowly, rising to her paws and swiftly following Rockfoot.**Silverstar** 00:35, November 11, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight hardly payed any attention to her kits ceremony, instead was deep in thought. It was really killing her, keeping it a secret... her kits father... she couldn't hold it in for much longer... she had to tell someone. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 23:42, November 13, 2016 (UTC)

Sturgeinwhisker rolled over lazily from his nest in the Warriors' den. The brown smoke mink warrior had been hoping to go hunting with Firepoppy today, but he hadn't seen her at all today. The warrior lashed his dark pointed tail.

Carpheart had recently become mates with Flintpelt, the calico she-cat dipped her head as she made her way towards the nursery where Shadowclaw and Tinycloud's kittens were. She'd be having Flintpelt's kits soon. (Insert Sarcasm)Bite Me, Dean! 20:46, November 14, 2016 (UTC)

(>:D) Bramblestar was out of camp, deep in thought as she paused near a tree. Her thoughts were on Ripplestrike... where had he even gone? Had she chosen to fall in love with the wrong tom...? A stabbing pain hit her, and she felt sad, and a little sick to her stomach. Would he ever return? --look me in the eye 21:14, November 14, 2016 (UTC)

(we can do seapaws plot now if you want - whiskers) —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:47, December 10, 2016 (UTC)

(Can this be archived please?) Sturgeonwhisker shuffled more nervously before looking at her and blurting. "I love you, Firepoppy. I always will." — Minkclaw 01:46, October 20, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw was being his typical bad-boy self: refusing to do work, flirting with the girls, occasoinally stealing things from others...but he did it all in a charming way, as if he was some sort of handsome pirate. Typical of him, but all he really wanted was one thing: answers.**Silverstar** 19:31, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Hopeless... that was the feeling Bramblestar felt. A pang hit her stomach, and she looked at the ground, feeling upset... but then, she felt the pang again, and again. *What in the name of StarClan is going on...?* --look me in the eye 20:51, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Mayflypaw meanwhile slacked off. Tanglelight had lately been feeling a strange guilt about her and Cardinalcloud. Yeah, they were broken up but... they had kits, they had to live lying every day... she could hardly bare to look at her kits, they reminded her of the lies too much... She did love them, she really did, but it was so hard. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 21:49, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw discarded of a few things he had stolen, pointless things that he didn't really want. He only stole them for attention from his mother, really. So now, the growing tom trotted back into camp, muttering under his breath.**Silverstar** 22:41, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Tanglelight spotted her father. She needed to tell someone... it would take some of the weight off her chest... "Fernstorm?" she called as he walked by, with a blank face. He had been quiet since Ashbreeze and Grassclaw had disappeared. He turned toward her. "Yes, Tanglelight?" Tanglelight beckoned to him with her tail. "Can I talk to you... in privite?" Fernstorm nodded, although he had the tiniest bit of surprise on his face. Tanglelight never cared if anyone heard her say something, unless it was rude. He followed as she led him out of camp. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 22:47, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Seapaw pricked his ears in interest as he saw his dam leaving camp. Interesting...she was probably hiding something big, particularly if she was leaving camp to share it. This only welcomed him to follow the pair with open arms! Slowly and silently, Seapaw turned and followed his mother out of camp.**Silverstar** 23:34, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

The pain got worse, so Bramblestar laid on her stomach on the forest floor, trying to curl up into a tight, tight ball. However, she couldn't get in very far - her stomach prevented her from doing that. Sighing, she straightened up, closing her eyes and hoping the pain would fade. --look me in the eye 23:44, December 29, 2016 (UTC)

Meanwhile, Tanglelight stopped by an overhang of rock a few fox-lengths away from camp. She glanced around, making sure no one was in earshot.

Rockfoot carried swept loose stones out of the pathway so no one would trip and scratch themsleves. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:03, December 30, 2016 (UTC)

(just gonna remove that first little bit of your post, Patch: I want Bramble to be alone rn, sorry) The pain came in waves, each worse than the next, Bramblestar willed for them to be over. Suddenly, there was a spike in the pain, and then it receded slightly, the leader's head on the ground, eyes wide as a small, dark shape appeared. *No.* --look me in the eye 00:51, December 30, 2016 (UTC)

(thats fine) Firepoppy paced around looking angry like she usually did after sending out a couple patrols. She had recently found out she was expecting kits and she wasn't sure how to feel about that. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:09, December 30, 2016 (UTC)

*That's impossible.* The leader was shocked. This couldn't be happening... Her head thudded onto the ground in pain again, and then it finally receded: two small kits were now with the leader. Her kits... *and Ripplestrike's.* Great, she'd need to raise the things alone, on top of her leader duties. This was going to be an interesting six moons... --look me in the eye 03:47, December 30, 2016 (UTC)

Firepoppy hadn't told her mate yet. She had found out a few days before but couldn't bring herself to the topic. She huffed once more and kept up her angry pacing. Next time she saw him, she'd tell him. She promised herself. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:07, December 31, 2016 (UTC)

However, Bramblestar's struggles were not yet over. After weakly licking her offspring and leading them to her spomach, she lost consciousness... as she'd lost a lot of blood. She'd stay that way for a few moments: her second life was lost in the struggle to give life, to kit. --look me in the eye 04:18, December 31, 2016 (UTC)

After being sure no one was around, Tanglelight turned back to her father. Ooh... how was she going to even start? Ease her way to the point? Jump right to it? "Okay... You know my kits?" she asked. Fernstorm blinked at the stupid question. "I think so," he repiled. "...why?" Tanglelight inhaled and exhaled for a couple heartbeats. Then all at once, she felt her heart crack and couldn't bare the guilt anymore. "Cardinalcloud! The Medicine cat! I never told anyone who their father was... We broke the warrior code. We had kits! I can hardly bare to look at them... I'm sososo sorry!" she yowled, her muzzle to the sky as if she were speaking to StarClan. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 18:31, January 1, 2017 (UTC)

Bramlestar eventually came to. Her gaze set on her son and daughter, who were by the queen's stomach. For now, she'd just move them all away from here... to a quieter spot, where she'd rest for the night. Returning to camp in the morning seemed like the best idea, as the CaveClan leader felt too tired to make the journey at this current point. ---- Back at camp, Leafsedge sorted hers, wondering at the back of her mind why Bramblestar wasn't back yet. *Oh, calm down, she she's the leader... Bramblestar must have her reasons.* --look me in the eye 20:23, January 1, 2017 (UTC)

Sturgeonwhisker made his way into camp, eyes dark as he thought. Firepoppy had become rather distant. (Insert Sarcasm)Bite Me, Dean! 15:50, January 3, 2017 (UTC)

Firepoppy noticed Sturgeonwhisker come into camp, and she, once again, felt liek she couldn't tell him. *No, I promised.*Doing her best to push her worries away, she made her way over to him. "Hey, Sturgeonwhisker... Do you want to go on a walk?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:54, January 4, 2017 (UTC)

Bramblestar moved her and her kits away from where she'd kitted them, and they were taken to a quiet area of CaveClan territory. As she was getting ready to rest, she named her kits: Hawkkit, for her black firstborn son, and Swallowkit for his dark tabby sister. --look me in the eye 02:36, January 4, 2017 (UTC)

Seapaw had hidden himself in the undergrowth, listening. Anger boiled within him, he grew ashamed of his bloodline. The clan medicine cat?! How could his mother be so careless, so foolish in picking her mate? He was against the code! He'd kill his father...he needed to discard of the evidence of his mother's wrongdoing.**Silverstar** 16:54, January 12, 2017 (UTC)

(if you want he can kill his mom too. i have no other plots or ideas for her) Fernstorm stared at Tangleburr, eyes wide with a mixture of confusion, anger, and surprise. "Is this all true?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 17:03, January 12, 2017 (UTC)

Waking, Bramblestar picked up her sleeping kits and started tp make the journey back to camp. *Oh, StarClan... this is going to be complicated.* How was she going to explain to her Clan that she'd just... *kitted?* --look me in the eye 19:40, January 12, 2017 (UTC)

(sounds good to me) Seapaw remained where he lay, claws digging into the earth as he gritted his teeth.---- Darkstorm awkwardly hung around camp, because he didn't really know what to do.**Silverstar** 22:39, February 26, 2017 (UTC)

"Yes... I'm so sorry..." Tanglelight sighed, lowering her head to the ground in shame. Fernstorm stared at her, shocked into silence. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 23:21, February 26, 2017 (UTC)

Too angry to listen to any more, Seapaw slinked back into camp, plotting dark ideas in the back of his mind as he stormed back into his home.**Silverstar** 00:07, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud sat in the medicine den, sorting through old herbs. ---- Fernstorm gave his head a slight shake after a moment before padding back to camp, not looking at his daughter. ---- Tanglelight's heart cracked when her father didn't even say a word. *He's so disappoitned in me...*---- Mayflypaw lifted his head when he saw his brother coming back to camp. "Hey, Seapaw! Where've you been?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:35, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Plotting," Seapaw growled under his breath, stalking into the Apprentice's den. He had it all figured out...at moon-high, he'd kill his father.**Silverstar** 01:38, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"*Plotting?"*Mayflypaw echoed, staring after him before shrugging. One of the other apprentices probably stepped on his tail or something. No big deal. ---- Fernstorm padded into camp and went right to his nest to think things over. Of course he was very disappointed with Tanglelight, but he couldn't stay too mad at her. Should he tell the Clan? ---- Tanglelight limped into camp with her head hanging low. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:43, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Shadowsong glanced up as her mate entered the warrior's den, slowly scooting closer to him before gently nuzzling his cheek. "Is something wrong, Fernstorm?"---- Seapaw curled up in the apprentice's den, scowling and muttering curses under his breath.**Silverstar** 01:45, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"It's... it's Tanglelight..." Fernstorm sighed, comforted by Shadowsong's warmth. ---- Mayflypaw sniffed when he saw his mother sulk into camp. What was her deal? She was usually prancing around chattering like a squirrel. It was kinda nice having her be quiet.—**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:57, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"What happened?" The primarily black tortoiseshell asked curiously.----Seapaw huffed to himself, trying to not fall asleep.**Silverstar** 02:01, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Fernstorm closed his eyes and remained quiet for a few moments. "She... told me a secret... she broke the warrior code. Broke it really bad..." ---- Mayflypaw didn't care what was wrong with his mother so he lopped over to the apprentices den and curled up in his nest, giving his brother a sidelong glance. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:07, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Shadowsong blinked her eyes in alarm, but remained by her mate's side, and kept her voice gentle. "Oh dear...it wouldn't have to do with her kittens, would it?"---- Seapaw felt his brother's gaze burning in his pelt, but he didn't bother to look up. Mayflypaw wouldn't understand.**Silverstar** 02:12, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"What's bothering you?" Mayflypaw asked curiously. ---- "It actually does..." Fernstorm sighed, then lowered his voice even more so no one but Shadowsong would hear. "Their father is the medicine cat!" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:20, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Nothing," Seapaw grumbled under his breath, darkly looking to the exit of the apprentice's den. "But I'm certain you'll find out soon enough."---- Shadowsong blinked in surprise. "R-Really?" She gasped, making sure she kept her voice lowered. "But she never seemed that interested in him!"**Silverstar** 02:24, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Mayflypaw's pelt prickled. Seapaw never seemed so... werid before... he must be planning something bad. "Just don't do anything where you'll get in trouble, okay?" --- "I know, that's why I'm so surprised!" Fernstorm meowed, suddenly feeling really angry with Cardinalcloud. He dug his claws into the moss of his nest, picturing the medicine cats pelt in them. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:29, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"You're telling that to the wrong cat, Mayflypaw." Seapaw let out a soft scoff. He was the *definition* of 'bad'!---- Shadowsong gently ran her tail down Fernstorm's spine. "But does she regret her actions? Not everyone thinks before they act."**Silverstar** 02:33, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Mayflypaw sighed before closing his eyes. ---- Fernstorm remained silent. Shadowsong was right. But he couldn't shrug it off lightly. He thought he had taught her better! —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:36, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Seapaw waited and waited for it to get darker and darker out.---- Shadowsong let out a soft sigh. "Making mistakes are part of our lives. How else do you think rules come about, anyways?"**Silverstar** 02:38, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Fernstorm nodded, feeling his anger start to ebb away. Well his anger at Cardinalcloud was still blazing, but besides that. He should tell Tanglelight he was sorry... "Should I tell the Clan...?" he asked, unsure and stupid. --- The moon rose higher in the sky as Cardinalcloud was collecting the leaves he had laid out in the clearing to dry. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:43, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Shadowsong shifted uncomfortably beside her mate. "I'm not sure...it could cause her a whole lot of trouble, and StarClan knows how her kits could be treated, Cardinalcloud as well."---- Moving slowly, Seapaw stalked out of the apprentice's den, light on his paws.**Silverstar** 02:45, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Fernstorm looked thoughtfully at the den roof. "I think I'll see what Tanglelight wants. If she wants to keep it to herself, then I guess it's her right." --- Cardinalcloud absently pushed the leaves into a pile, twitching his ear. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:49, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Shadowsong gave him a small nod. "Good idea," she gave him a small lick on the cheek before going to sleep.----"*Dad,*" Seapaw began in a harsh, silent hiss as he entered the Medicine Cat den, his tail twitching in pure hatred. "Is that what I'm supposed to call you?"**Silverstar** 02:52, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud jerked his head around to see Seapaw standing in the entrance to his cave. Oh no... "Uh, what are you talking about?" he said, pretending to have no idea what was going on. How did he find out!? Tanglelight wasn't dumb enough to tell the kits, was she? —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 02:54, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Don't play dumb," Seapaw let out a low, rumbling growl from deep in his throat. "I know how to sneak around this StarClan-forbidden place, I hear *everything*."**Silverstar** 02:56, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud sighed. What should he do? "Look, it was a mistake -" he stopped. Uh-oh, he just called his kids a mistake. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:01, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"What was a mistake? Your birth? Your arrival to my Clan?" Seapaw snapped with a lash of his long tail, eyes trained on his Medicine Cat as if he was prey.**Silverstar** 03:05, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Uh - um," Cardinalcloud stammered. "Look, it's not a big deal. So what I'm your father? All we've got to do is pretend it never happened. It never hurt anyone before." —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:11, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Pretend, hah!" Seapaw bared his fangs as he glared at the tom. "Let's pretend I was never born, let's pretend that my parents aren't traitors. Nobody was hurt, nobody at all!" His gaze suddenly darkened. "...Nobody but you."---- Darkstorm snored loudly as he slept. (Needs his debut)**Silverstar** 03:14, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud's pelt prickled and he shuffled his paws uneasily. "Look, please just listen..." he tried. -—**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:20, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"I don't have time for your hare dung!" Seapaw snapped before springing at his father, claws extended.--- In his sleep, Darkstorm was convinced that something terrible was happening, but he kept on sleeping. He was in a pretty deep sleep, not getting out of it now.**Silverstar** 03:24, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Wait!" Cardinalcloud screeched, moving his paws to block Seapaw. But he was too late. His sons claws dug into his throat. He gagged, coughing up blood. ---- Tanglelight, who felt too sad to go into the warriors den lifted her head in alarm when she heard a scream. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:28, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Keep it down, you bumbling idiot!" Seapaw hissed with an angry lash of his tail, letting his claws sink in deeper. "Or I'll dig your throat out so you can't say a word!" He planned on doing that anyways.**Silverstar** 03:31, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

The only response Cardinalcloud could mange were some more chokes and gags as more blood dripped from his mouth and throat. Pain blazed through his neck, making him want to scream. He began to slump to the floor, his vision beginning to cloud. ---- Tanglelight anxiously peered around, tucking her tail in closer to her body. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 03:34, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

He couldn't stop himself, and Seapaw wasn't certain as to why. Deep down he was actually...regretting this, but for some reason, he couldn't remove his claws. Everything was just....red.**Silverstar** 03:38, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"What in the name of StarClan --wait wear is cardinalcloud !" Duskflower said. She had just awoken which was strange.Her wound looked nasty. She then shouted in pain for an unknown reson and went back to the den and passed out. -- *Moonflower*

Darkstorm was dreaming of hunting in fields, oblivious to the terror happening within the Medicine Cat den. He slept as far away from his mother, Galaxystorm, as possible.**Silverstar** 04:03, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Cardinalcloud's breathing ceased and his eyes dulled. He was dead. --- Tanglelight got to her paws, warily. Her ears flicked around, pin pointing the sound. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 05:29, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"C-Cardnalcloud?" Her dream had frightened her. She had saw that cardinallcloud was dead him coughing up blood. He was dieing! She had no idea what to do. And then her own breathing became dense her self and woke up screaming she yelled"CARDINALCLOUD!" She saw a horror before her eyes and new it was a dream. ~~Moonflower

Wigeonkit sat outside the nursery cleaning her thick, dilute pelt. The small kitten was nearly ready to become an apprentice and was super excited. She cast her green gaze towards Firepoppy, who was huge in her pregnancy. Sturgeonwhisker seemed to follow her everywhere afraid of letting her leave camp even for a second. (Insert Sarcasm)Bite Me, Dean! 17:05, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Firepoppy was really annoyed with her mate following her around. It was awesome he cared and worried about her, but really? She killed cats before, she could handle kits. Firepoppy now was asleep but woke up to some pain in her belly which began to get worse. The kits must be coming. *About time.*—**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 17:27, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

The brown smoke mink warrior rushed forward. "Are you hurt?" He began to ramble on and on, his voice growing higher as his worry increased. It seemed his worry for his mate was like that of a mother to kittens. (Insert Sarcasm)Bite Me, Dean! 20:18, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

"Shut up," Firepoppy grunted through gritted teeth. "The kits are coming - I'm fine, I'm fine. Don't get the medicine cats unless something goes wrong," she urged, not wanting to disturb the entire camp.

Meanwhile, the tortoiseshell head of Grassclaw poked out of some bushes. She was on CaveClan's border. A purr rumbled in her throat. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 21:23, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Oh no...he had to hide the evidence! Before everyone had awakened, Seapaw dragged Cardinalblaze out via the dirtplace tunnel, and buried his body without a word. At dawn, he was sleeping in the apprentice's den once more, his fur clean and his scent non-existent in the Medicine Cat den. He was pretty good at this, perhaps he had been a murderer in a past life?**Silverstar** 00:01, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

In the morning, Firepoppy bore three kits, two toms and a she-kit. She sat curled around them, a low purr rumbling in her throat.

(assuming they found each other) "Ashbreeze? You there?" Grassclaw called, looking over her shoulder. She couldn't stand the thought of losing her again.

Tanglelight heard no more noise that night and went back to bed, waking up in the morning with a long yawn, feeling a bit better but still upset. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:23, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

A pale head poked from the undergrowth, the molly's ears pricked. "Grassclaw, is that you?!"**Silverstar** 00:27, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Grassclaw swung her head around, heart thudding. "Where are you?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:30, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"Right here!" Ashbreeze leaped from the bushes, the pale tabby's eyes bright with joy.**Silverstar** 00:50, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Grassclaw let out a squeal and flew over to her sister, blowing her over and giving her face rough licks. "I can't believe it!" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 00:55, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Ashbreeze let out a soft purr at her sister's embrace. "I missed you too! I was convinced that I was a goner."**Silverstar** 00:58, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"I looked so hard to find you! And what are the odds, we find each other on the border!" Grassclaw mewed cheerfully, letting Ashbreeze free. "Where were you? Are you hurt?" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:02, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"I was just lost, I guess." The silver tabby gave a small shrug of her shoulders. "But I'm ok! How about you?"**Silverstar** 01:08, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"I'm fine. I met a RockClan tom who was also lost. We helped each other out. He was nice," Grassclaw replied then shook her head. "We've got to get back home! Everyone must think we're dead!" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:14, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"Mom and dad....and Stagleap." Ashbreeze cringed, although grinned as she recalled her sister mentioning a 'tom'. "He was 'nice', huh? You little sap!"**Silverstar** 01:18, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Grassclaw shoved Ashbreeze playfully. "He's just a *friend.*No big deal," she flicked her tail dismissively, but an image of Pink-Eyes drifted around her head. "Let's go!" she yowled, haring off before Ashbreeze could add anything to the topic. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:23, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Ashbreeze playfully rolled her eyes at her sister before charging after her.---- Back at camp, the pointed Stagleap lay around camp, sulking. He'd been this way ever since his sisters disappeared.**Silverstar** 01:32, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Fernstorm woke up from the warriors den and told Tanglelight he forgave her for breaking the code. When he asked about telling the Clan, she shook her head. "I don't think I want to. I don't want my kits to be treated wrongly." Grassclaw charged into camp with a roar, making the two warriors jump. —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:37, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

Stagleap appeared to immediately brighten at the sight of his sister. "Grassclaw?" And then Ashbreeze appeared behind her, and Stagleap grinned even further. His sisters were alive!**Silverstar** 01:40, February 28, 2017 (UTC)

"Stagleap!" Grassclaw screeched, hurtling towards her brother and knocking to the ground just as she had done with Ashbreeze, giving his face licks. Fernstorm and Tanglelight rushed over. "You're okay!" —**p****a****t****c****h****f****e****a****t****h****e****r** **. You're poison running through my veins** 01:43, February 28, 2017 (UTC)
