"If he's speaking...I still can't hear him...something still blocks the connection...I'm telling you all, there must be a stronger connection point to Starclan in these mountains..." Mysticglow fretted, as Nightflame's jaws opened, but no sound came out.
Nightflame now tried to see if Blazeshade could hear him, using his energy to almost minutely push at the younger tom, looking both exhasperated and frantic. If only he could tell them what Willowbreeze was going to say to Wildstar! Their mission to reunite would be close to ending!

Blazeshade shook his head gravely. "I can only hear as much as you, Mother. No where else in our hunting areas have I heard our ancestors." He sighed, looking up where he supposed Nightflame was. "I'm sorry." He whispered, feeling utterly defeated.

Nightflame gave a sigh of defeat, turning back to stare sadly at his daughter. He knew she would not get lives, even though he always believed she deserved it. More than anything, he wanted to see his son too...but it was even harder to see him when Pinefoot's faith was so low...
Mysticglow seemed to give a light frown. She shakily pulled herself up, wobbling with her aged gate as she rasped. "Well...we gotta find a better connection point...the cave is good but...it's not strong anymore..." She complained.
Lilybreeze looked anxious and terribly confused. Mysticglow shouldn't wander as much as she did.

"Mother please, don't. Lilybreeze and I could go instead." Blazeshade offered, quickly dashing up to intercept his beloved, aging mother. His eyes swam with worry, and he looked to Lilybreeze for support.

Mysticglow blinked in reluctant distraction, seeing the hopeful gaze of the fading form of Nightflame, before she looked at her son and Lilybreeze. "Perhaps...you can speak to Nettle about searching for...a better Starclan point..." She offered, looking tired.

Blazeshade nodded. "Of course, Mother. But please, you should sleep first. It's past moonhigh, and you need your strength." He nosed her cheek gently, eyes warm with love for her. The silvery tom looked over at Lilybreeze once more for support on the matter.

Lilybreeze nodded in clear agreement, moving to press her midnight fur against Mysticglow's thin yet still exotically lovely coat. She mewed softly. "Your nest was just changed. I saw Roseblossom doing that." She chatted, purring and nodding lightly to Blazeshade.
Mysticglow let the younger cats lead her, a soft purr in her throat seeing her son and Lilybreeze together as she always had.

Blazeshade smiled as he padded alongside his two favorite she-cats. "It'll be nice and clean and soft for you, just the way you like it." He purred, looking over at Mysticglow and Lilybreeze.

"I should hope so...these rocks dig into my fur all the time..." Mysticglow croaked as she looked at Blazeshade, no longer distracted by Starclan presence and back to fully focusing on her clan again. She gave a hum. "I hope our healer is stocked up for this season..."
Olivebranch purred and mewed to Nettleheart. "Shall we have some cats hunt?" He asked her.

Slowly, Nettleheart was drawing herself out of her depression. "Yes, that's a good idea." Licking his ear, she asked, "Would you lead them for me? I'm going to do a small patrol, probably by myself, near the more dangerous parts of the terrotory."

"Of course. I'll do pairs. I'll go with Roseblossom and Violetdawn can go with Thornstrike." He offered, glancing at his sister and kits.
Violetdawn heard her name and stood up, regally sitting herself up and making sure her mottled coat was as clean as crystal. She sauntered over towards her brother and his mate, violet-blue eyes training on her neice and nephew.
"A hunt? And I just had my fur groomed!" She exclaimed, before sighing. "But, I suppose it's only right. The prey surely will be easier to catch now that the snow has stopped." She decided.

"I hope our healer is stocked up for this season..." Olivebranch purred and mewed to Nettleheart. "Shall we have some cats hunt?" He asked her. Blazeshade dipped his head slightly. "Mother," he chuckled lightly, "he knows what he's doing. Everything will be fine, I promise." He purred reassuringly, licking his mother's cheek. His silver spotted fur melded against hers, which was well kept for her age.

"Oh yes yes, I know, I trained the tom." Mysticglow crackled with laughter as she finally made it to her nest and settled into it. She took a deep breath and sighed. "I want...Snowclan again...how it used to be. Together, sure and united..." She admitted softly. She smiled sadly. "The Snowclan I knew had your father in it. Such a beautiful cat. I loved him...so much." She smiled brightly.

Blazeshade frowned, his eyes losing their bright glint. But he smiled again to mask his pain at the mention of his father, and nuzzled Mysticglow. "Soon, Mother. We'll rejoin the Clan, and you'll see Father again." He purred, swishing his fluffy tail. "Now please, try to sleep. We won't be gone too long." He pleaded, looking over at Lilybreeze.

Mysticglow looked ready to say something, only to nod lightly and rest her head on her paws. She merely croaked quietly and almost playfully to her son. "When are you...gonna ask that she-cat to be with you...and give me some grandkits?"
Lilybreeze pretended that she didn't hear the words, not wanting Blazeshade to feel akward, but she flushed warmly under her black pelt, eyes glancing shyly at the cave wall. Deep deep down within her, those words honestly didn't sound bad at all...

Blazeshade flushed, whiskers twitching anxiously. "Please Mother, the time will come for that." He begged quietly, resting his tail across her shoulders. He glanced over at Lilybreeze, amber and blue eyes worried, hoping silently she hadn't heard Mysticglow.

Lilybreeze looked distracted, before gently gazing at Blazeshade and simply waving her tail in greeting from her spot tail lengths away.

"Love you, Mother." Blazeshade meowed quickly before he padded off to join Lilybreeze. He sighed, swishing his tail. "She talks about my father as if I can remember him... That hurts." The silvery spotted tom admitted, sadness in his hetero eyes.

Lilybreeze placed her tail gently on Blazeshade's shoulders, mewing softly. "You know she has no intention of ever hurting you...sometimes you lose something you cannot cope without...and you speak about them to keep them alive to you...focus on the positive things she remembers about him...it's your way of knowing your father." She offered.

Blazeshade touched his nose to her cheek, smiling lightly. "Yes, I know. And I enjoy hearing about him greatly. I cannot wait until the day I meet him, hopefully here in this life." He admitted, longing in his eyes.

Lilybreeze gave a light smile and pressed closer to him. She mewed. "Yes. I hope you meet him too...as I hope to see Smokewave and Willowbreeze again one day. Adderstrike prentends to be alright but...after his mate passed away, he's searched the skies more times than he admits..." She mused. It was why Adderstrike was so sour lately.

Blazeshade frowned, though he was glad to support her weight. "Losing a mate is a terrible thing." He agreed softly, looking at Lilybreeze with loving eyes. Did he have the courage to do as his mother had insisted he do, and admit his love for her? He knew not quite yet, though he was fairly certain she felt the same. He sighed inwardly, not looking forwards to their journey ahead. "How will we find StarClan, if I cannot see them?" He questioned, softly, almost to himself.

Lilybreeze was quiet at that, but she had a sudden thought. She could never see what Blazeshade and his mother saw. She mewed. "Nightflame...did he...was he really there? I thought I scented something but...but I could never sense what you and your mother do."
She swallowed. "But...perhaps she's right. Perhaps there's a better place to contact Starclan. The crystals in our current cave...so many were destroyed in the infamous collapse."

Post by ♥Snowfire♥ on May 10, 2017 19:15:49 GMT -5
Blazeshade nodded. "Nightflame was there. I could feel him, but he was silent. I strained my ears, but our connection..." he looked at her, determined fire in his blue and amber eyes. "There has to be a better spot. More crystals, or a mountain ridge, or something!" The silver and white spotted tabby tom declared, lashing his tail in frustration.

"Yes. Wherever the other group wound up, they found a connection point...Surely we must do the same...but we'd need a full plan and safe path to start." Lilybreeze mewed with her quiet intelligence. She then hummed. "I'm sorry you could not hear him...after knowing him when he was alive, not being able to hear his voice must be hard...Nightflame always knew how to keep things together, he and Echoshine." She purred softly.

Post by ♥Snowfire♥ on May 10, 2017 19:46:01 GMT -5
"Yeah..." Blazeshade agreed with a small sigh. "He was always so knowledgeable. I just... I wish I could talk to him. See him. He'd tell me how to get us back to them." He meowed in frustration, pressing his head to Lilybreeze's shoulder.

"He certainly knew how to adapt to anything that came his way...As much as my parents would never admit it, they found Nightflame and Echoshine to stand as the pillars of this group...without them...I'm not sure." Lilybreeze paused as she glanced at the waterfall, entranced as always by the small crystals and rushing water. She placed her paws in the clear water, purring as it soothed her stone-worn pads.
She mewed. "You remind me of Nightflame sometimes." She admitted.

"Really?" Blazeshade asked in surprise. He lifted his head, wondering at both of these statements, and looked into the clear water, staring at his reflection, a blue eye and an amber eyes staring back at him in turn. He could of swore he saw a flash among the ripples, but when he blinked and refocused, it was gone. "How so?" He asked Lilybreeze hesitantly, returning his mind to the current conversation.

"You both, whether it be intentional or accidental, place the lives of others before yours...you don't fear danger so long as those you care for are safe...And you both learned from cats who may not be related by blood, but who raised you right. The clan gave you purpose, and you payed it back so well..." Lilybreeze explained.
