Welcome ~ ~ ~
It is said the clan was form out of the foam and spray of the sea. Our ancestors tumbled out of the waters like kits, with salt in their blood and the waves imprinted on their fur. They spent every minute of their days and nights next to their beloved sea. When they died, their bodies were washed away into the waves and their spirit was finally free again.
The clan remains on the same beach. We leave our paw prints in the same sand and dive in the same waters. Some of our ancestors remain to guide us in the water. The move the water to lead the fish into the cove and to guide us to the shellfish. At least, they use to. Now, the water is silent. Fish have stopped visiting the waters. The currents only push cats towards the shore. It's as if the ancestors are pushing the clan away. Cats are starting to worry and talk among themselves. No one knows what is happening. We can only hope and pray the ancestors will answer.
~ ~~ ~ ~~Plots
Main;; Both the leader and medicine cat have had disturbing dreams. A red wave washes over the cats. Then, they see the selfish grow black and hard. The time has come. The clan watches as a tide rolls in and stains their sea crimson. The fish go belly up and the oysters are tainted. Their precious sea holds nothing for them. The clan must learn how to hunt on land and deal with predators they have not met before.
Side;; This is the section for the forbidden romance, fights, or lost cats. Basically so everyone can keep up on the latest gossip.

About ~ ~ ~ Appearances To outsiders, ShoreClan is basically unknown as they do not often leave or patrol the beach. Threats are chased off only if they are found near the camp. The forest around them is left alone. As for cats who are not threats, the clan has a hospitable nature. Cats are willingly invited to camp to rest their paws and offered a piece of prey. This might be confusing for those more custom to a rougher lifestyle, but these cats are mostly safe from threats and have an amble food supply. Not many animals, aside from the occasional fox, will wander down to the beach, and no matter the season, the sea will contain food. Until now, their life was near paradise.
The ideal shoreclan cat would be a monochrome tabby with short fur and big paws. Long, powerful legs and long tails are also prized. Though, throughout the years, others have entered Shoreclan's ranks and given the clan more variety. Tabbies with short fur are more common, but there are plenty of other colors and patterns in the clan. Not so many fur lengths as long-haired cats often struggle hunting. A solid color cat is considered unlucky.
~ ~~ ~ ~~Traditions Hunting A diet of a Shoreclan cat largely contains seafood. Rarely will a clan cat eat a mouse or vole. Crabs and gulls are the closest thing to "land-prey" found in the pile. However, the most common kills would have to be fish, oyster, and shellfish. These cats will swim to the middle of the cove and then some will dive. A couple cats will remain above water. The diving cat will use their claws to catch a fish or collect an oyster. They will then bring the prey up to the surface and give it to the waiting cat. The waiting cat then brings the prey ashore. The process is repeated.
Dusk Watch Once a year just as newleaf begins, most of the clan will gather at the cliffs at dusk. Everyone will be waiting for the arrival of orca whales. These are believed to guide the ancestor's spirits around the ocean for a year and take all those who are at peace along with them. Most cats will return to the each once seeing the whales and sleep, hoping to see their loved ones in their dreams.
Meeting with Ancestors Any cat can meet with the ancestors. All that has to be done is for the cat to sleep in the wet sand on the beach. Most cats will build a small mound of sand so if the tide rises, they are not awoken. There is no promises the cat will meet with their dead kin. The ancestors will choose to meet with their kin when they choose.
~ ~~ ~ ~~Territory Beach
The clan spends most of their time lounging on the beach's rocks or playing in the sand. Sometimes crabs and gulls can be caught. As long as a warrior is looking over the kits, they are also normally allowed to play near the water. Though the queens may not thank the warrior when their kitten's fur is covered in gritty sand.
Camp It is said the cats of old slept on the beach as they couldn't bear to be separated from the waves for even one night. However, after a slew of colds, the practice was abandoned. The clan has moved to a gully connected to the shore. The gully is a small dip in the earth like a stone bowl. There is a small entrance for cats to get to the shore by. The trees and bushes line the top of the stone walls of the gully. Dens are made out of woven branches, stone, and kelp. Moss and feathers are used to make the nests, while shells decorate.
Cliffs The Cliffs are windy and jut out over the sea. Not many who fall can miss the rocks at the bottom and swim back. Apprentices are not allowed to go and warriors are cautioned against it. There is little to no point to visiting the cliffs. They aren't a popular spot for prey and the wind chills most to the bone. However, some visit to see the sunrise and sunset. The water looks like molten gold when it reflects the light. Perfect to set the mood, if both cats like shivering.
Twoleg tree The clan cat's dubbed this white and red towering structure a tree as they had no other way to describe it. Twolegs come to visit on an occasion, but not often. The light that shines from the top is called the Tree's Star. Few are brave enough to venture up the tree to see the star. Not like there is much danger in it. It is just a lot of work and it is cold. Twoleg place This place is only popular in the warmest moons. The large building stands mostly empty around the colder moons. Once it is warm, the twolegs will fill up the large den. They don't venture out very far from it and many screams can be heard. Many cats don't go near there.
Forest The forest contains mostly large oaks and other trees with sparse underbrush. It is filled with life, yet the clan does not normally take advantage with the sea giving such a bounty. Instead, the forest is used by young apprentices to explore and by warriors to find lost apprentices. There are many tales of strange things the clan finds lying in the leaves, especially during newleaf. Metal teeth and shells are left on the forest floor, sometimes with the scent of blood in the surrounding area. Rogues have also been known to prowl in the shadows.

Allegiances ~ ~ ~
leader
Stormstar ~ She-cat ~ 72 moons With sliver now accenting her black fur and limbs which protest in the morning's chill, this leader is showing her age. Not like the leader would appear weak. There is still muscle underneath her thinning pelt and her claws are sharp as ever. Thanks to the diet of fish, Stormstar remains lean. She has the typically long tail of a Shoreclanner but lack the long legs. Her legs aren't short, but she is still slightly shorter than her clanmates. Her life has earned her a couple of scars .She has a set on her left hindleg and one long scar at the base of her neck. None of these effect her too much. It's her golden eyes which are the issue. Age has taken its toll on her eyes and have made them cloudy. She can still see, but details are becoming fuzzy. Only the medicine cat knows about her condition. ~~ 3 lives left ~~
Deputy Will be chosen through rp. Please state if you want your cat in the running.
Medicine cat Shalespots~ Male ~ 15 moons old Shalespots is a rather long legged cat but admittedly doesn't have much muscle on him. He's all legs and has a lower than average muscle mass on him compared to his clanmates. This might be because he doesn't go swimming all that often. He has a soft grey coloring on a good portion of his pelt, with darker tabby markings, and has little white toes and white running up the bridge of his nose.
Medicine cat apprentice Claimed Warriors Oysternose ~ Female ~ 42 moons Oysternose is a silver-white Burmilla-mix molly with a pretty red-pink nose, gray pattern tips, and brown eyes. The pattern of gray to silver to white along her flanks is highly reminiscent of the layered shell of an oyster one may find in the sand, though her rosy colored nose and her expert ability for tracking scents that would normally be lost amidst the sharp winds and sheer cliffs, and her paws and sturdy and sure with how often she braves those sheer cliffs and tidepools to hunt down nesting birds and little crabs. With the ocean's bounty, she isn't one to miss meals very often, giving her fur a healthy shine and belly an above-average curve.
Shrimpstrike ~ She-cat ~ 37 moons Shrimpstrike is a rosy hued tortoiseshell she cat with dilute fur. She has no white on her pelt and yellow eyes. She has a black stripe running down her back. Shrimpstrike is named after her small size, though has grown into a good warrior for the clan. She is still quiet slight but is a long legged she cat and is actually quite tall now. She is definitely not as small and puny compared to others when she was younger. She has black paws as well as a black stripe. Her face and body is quite pale, with molted grey, brown, and rosy ginger blending together.
Rainwatcher ~ Tom ~ 37 Moons Rainwatcher is a strapping tom, who is well muscled and rather handsome in appearance. His fur is a bit thicker than most, and he sports a handsome, thick ruff of fur along his neck and running along his spine. Rainwatcher is a dark brown tabby with white markings. Peculiar tabby sock markings adorn his front legs, ending only due to white on his toes covered from head to tail in medium length fur, which has a habit of spiking up into little tufts whenever he's sitting. His ruff has grown longer, almost akin to a bit of a mane puffing around his neck. He has sharp amber eyes and neat, pointed ears. Rainwatcher also sports the trait of large paws and powerful legs which carries through his family like a majority of the clan.
Sundust~ Tom ~ 36 moons Sundust is a compact built tom, with muscle packed into every square inch of his body. He is not particularly large, but is very strong not super swift for a cat. He is a ginger stripped tabby, with more of a golden tone to his undercoat, and reddish tinged tabby stripes. He has a white patch on his chest down up to his nose which is a pale pink color. His eyes are yellow.
Dolphincry ~ She-cat ~ 34 Moons Dolphincry has a very fitting name, at the very least according to pelt color. Her fur dons a very light grey, with darker grey tabby stripes that are more dense on her back than anywhere else. Her chest, belly, and toes are plain white. A pale blue color fills her iris', something she is complimented on often. Dolphincry has the most common physique in her clan; Short fur, decent-size paws, long legs, and a long tail. Her body looks like it was made for swimming, and does this she-cat love to swim! Her sleek body and slender legs make for a quick swimmer, and a good fisher. Small tufts of fur rise from her ears, only giving her something else to stand out from the crowd. Her fur is often seen groomed, as it is something she takes a bit of pride in.
Ottersplash ~ She-cat ~ 28 moons Ottersplash doesn't look much like an otter in both coloring and figure. The she-cat has light grey fur with darker grey spotted tabby markings on top. There are white markings on her toes and chest. Her dark golden eyes are large and round, almost giving her a constant expression of surprise. Her fur is sleek and shiny due to the steady diet of fish. She also has long legs and long tail which is typical of those in her clan. Really, she looks quite average in both coloring and appearance.
Batflight ~ male ~ 28 moons A shorthaired black tabby with grey stripes, and bright green eyes. He is a well-muscled tom with long legs. He is a fairly strong swimmer with his long legs, and will dive into the sea to save any cat in a heartbeat.
Morningsong ~ She-Cat ~ 26 Moons Morningsong is quite a daintily built she-cat. While she is average sized, if not a bit slight, and she has distinct slender limbs that, but don't be fooled as Her back legs are powerful, and her muscles have grown since her time in Shoreclan. She has soft, delicate features like her pallid sea blue-green that seemingly shimmer like sea water itself, and they are rather large, like a kitten's. Morningsong has a very fair, creamy base coat, a coloration that is similar to light beach sands; her coat is thin but medium-length, while her streaming, sleek tail seems to hold an unusual thickness of hairs. Her chest is also thickly covered as well; the fur is downy and incredibly soft, framing her face well. A light toffee hue colors colors her tail, back neck fur, ears and face, as well as patterns her paws and toes. A soft wisp of ivory hair curls over the right side of her face. One of Morningsong's distinctive traits is the spray of two-toned freckles that speckle her cheeks and the back of her neck. Although she does have some face and belly chub, she's still carrying that air of grace and innocence. She couldn't be described as petite, because she's not exactly short and little. She's the average height for a female with lengthy limbs and a long skeleton that make her seem taller and more slim.
Windhowl ~ Tom ~ 25 Moons Windhowl has a similar pelt color to his sister. His fur is a light grey, however a little darker than his older sisters. Dark stripes cover his body as well, although they are a little more irregular and jagged than a typical tabbies would be. The white markings on his sisters pelt are missing from his, however he does have a black tail tip and ear tip. His ears have the same tufts as his sisters as well. The two are said to look a lot alike, especially in their face, as they also share the same pale blue eye color. His body is a little huskier than what is considered normal from the clan, and a little more muscular as well. He does, however, share the long tail and large paws which help him while swimming just a tad.
Tidestripe ~ Tom ~ 25 moons
Tall golden tabby tom with a white underbelly, paws and chin along with a pair of shining blue eyes like the sky on a clear day. He's bulkier, making it a little harder for him to hunt, but he still manages okay. He has a scar across his muzzle that was given to him by an osprey. Most of his fur is thinner, but when things get cold, his fur, especially his underbelly thickens up, which he resents. Because of this, he grooms himself a lot. His tail is also rather long and has a tiny white tip on the end.
Gullfeather~ She cat ~ 24 moons Gull feather is a long legged and well muscled she cat. She has paler fur than most, it's almost silver in coloration, and her tabby markings are all broken up so they look more like spots than anything. They're still technically tabby markings, though, and she has banded legs and tail. This is due to her being a half clan kit who was brought in before her eyes opened (her mother, a rogue, was an Egyptian Mau for reference) so her pelt looks a little bit different from the others. She has wide greenish eyes and large, bat like ears.
Moonpelt ~ Tom ~ 17 moons Moonpelt's fur is a solid color without a blemish, something of which he is very proud of. It is very soft and pure white. Sadly, it is also very thin. His skin often has a pink or red shade to it after hunting under the sun. His eyes are also a pink-ish red. His body is the only thing which is normal. He can be easily described as slender. He has long legs and a thin body with a long tail. He also has large paws, which help him swim.
Apprentices Oatpaw ~ Male ~ 8 moons Oatpaw is a rather stocky male. He's a little on the big side and a bit muscled too. He has brown fur with tabby markings all over his body. He has cream colored toes and underbelly and a knick in his ear from an accident when he was a kit. His eyes are a wide amber color and everything about him kind of exudes innocence.
Sealpaw ~ Tom ~ 8 moons At first glance, most cats would notice that Sealpaw is a bit more thick than the other clan cats. He is a bit on the chubby side and shorter than most of his clanmates. The tom seems to have a very blocky form with nothing very slender or thin about him. He has large paws, so there is promise that he will grow more and out of a very awkward stage. His pelt is a warm brown with darker brown spots. He has round, amber eyes as well as tiny ears.
Crabpaw ~ Tom ~ 8 moons This apprentice has grown better than most. His legs seem to be growing along with his body as he is not as leggy as most of the young cats. This does promise him being shorter in the future, which is one thing he fears. Thankfully, he finds himself a short furred cat with a patterned pelt. Crabpaw's pelt is a roan color ticked black with white toes. He has bright golden eyes which stand against his dark fur.
Orcapaw ~ She-cat ~ 7 Moons Orcapaw has an extremely unique pelt that isn't seen often in the clan. This may be due to the fact that her mother was an outsider, therefore her pelt is one that isn't often seen. Her pelt is mostly black, with white splotches scattered around her fur. White covers her tail tip, her left flank, underbelly, and the front of her muzzle. These patches are awkwardly shaped, and seem to have no regularity to them. Her physique would be considered on the edge of slender, though she does have a little bit of weight to her. She has short fur, like many of her clan mates, but lacks the longer body features that aid in swimming for long periods of time.
Tempestpaw ~ She-Cat ~ 7 Moons Tempestpaw is a chubby, small and boyishly-cute standard pointed cat. Perhaps she looks a bit chubbier due to her small stature, but chubby all and all. The tiny she-cat has short, thick legs with tiny paws on the end of them. She is round, and sports tiny ears on her head and to continue with the roundness, her eyes are large and round with a beautiful light green hue. Though its too early to say anything for sure, its likely Tempestpaw will develop muscles out of the kitten fat she has. Tempestpaw has a short and sleek dusky ginger pelt with dark brown legs, ears, face, and tail. Gentle stripes arch their way over her legs in a gradient of coffee-colored hues, and each foot has its own unique cream marking. Her stomach and the underside of her tail is also the same cream, and she's got markings of the same color on her face. Tempestpaw's paws pack their own punch with their differently-colored dark brown and cherry pink pawpads; her nose is the same dark brown, and her ears are the same pink. The top of her head, the underside of her front paws, and the underside of her tail have longer fur than the rest of her body.
Queens and kits FoamLily ~~ She-cat ~~ 26 moons Foamlily is a small she-cat with short diluted tortoiseshell fur that is pale bluish grey and faded ginger in color. Her eyes are a pale green.
Turtlekit ~~ Tom ~~ 4 Moons A dark tom that almost looks black in color, when the sun hits his fur it is actually a very dark grey. The only thing that looks remotely like his mothers coloring is a patch of fur the is grey, though it is much darker than his mothers fur. His eyes are a sharp amber.
Bubblekit ~~ She-cat ~~ 4 moons A small cat, she is the one in her liter that resembles her mother almost to the T. Her fur is pale grey and and faded ginger in color. Though she has a small splash of white on her chest, and her eyes are a bright amber.
Shellkit ~~ Tom ~~ 4 Moons Long limbs, long tail, long everything. This tom is the definition of lanky, his fur it short and sleek fitting to his thin muscles he was built to be a hunter and swimmer. In color he is a medium shade of grey with white paws and tail tip. His eyes are green in color.
Ivysea ~ she-cat ~ 25 moons Longer description/personality: A smallish shorthaired mostly grey queen with a white underbelly. All of her paws are white, and the tops of her ears are white as well. She has bright blue eyes, and splotch of white fur around her right eye. Due to her small size, Ivysea is not the strongest swimmer, but she does her best when she is needed in the water.
Kelpkit ~ tom ~ 3 moons Kelpkit looks more like his mother then his brother does, but with only one white paw rather than four. Unlike his mother though, he has bright green eyes. He is a very small kit for his age, and he starts to worry he will never grow.
Driftkit ~ tom ~ 3 moons Driftkit is a mostly grey cat with only the tips of his ears that are white, all four of his paws being white. Similar to his mother, he has bright blue eyes, and a patch of white fur over his right eye.
Elders Halftooth ~ tom ~ 81 moons Age has effected his tom worse than most clan cats at this time, likely due to him spending half his life outside the clan. Halftooth is a ginger colored tom with deep red stripes. His fur is rough and scattered with scars. Each scars has its own story which changes in each re-telling. His broken and yellowed teeth are always his most dramatic retellings. All of his canines are broken or chipped in some fashion. Thankfully, his green eyes seem fine. They even seem to light up when someone enters the den.
Outsiders Pyra ~ Female ~ 36 Moons
Description- A fluffy she-cat with two different colored eyes, one a sunset amber and the other a forest green. Her pelt is that of a dark russet with darker paws and a white tipped tail. She's seen as pretty, especially when the sun hits her fur. She has taller ears that are sharply pointed and a long fluffy tail. Carries herself with a certain sense of pride even though the sand makes her trip.
Ninx ~ Tom ~ 22 moons Ninx is a small figured tom with a longer than average tail and small paws. His face is average sized but he has large eyes and his ears are topped with tufts of fur like a lynx's. He has longer fur on his paws, tail, and down his spine. Ninx is a male silver, gray, white, black, and brown dapple. Three of his paws are a pale ginger paw while his left back paw is black with small white flecks on it. He has blue/gray shell like markings around his eyes and ankles. His ears are speckled with amber. This tom's eyes are a deep sea blue with smaller flecks of gray in them.

Everything should be updated. I'll probably wait a day or two before assigning mentors just to get a larger pool of warriors. If there is anyone you want to mentor your apprentice, just ask. )

Not at all ~ )
Crabpaw prowled along the beach, eying every inch of sand for any sign of movement. His tail lashed. Nothing. He was going to come back to camp empty pawed. Not like his additions to the pile would make a large difference. It was mid-newleaf and the sun was shining bright overhead. There would be plenty of fish and other prey sluggish in the warm weather. Many creatures would near the surface to feel the sun. The warriors fishing would come back with enough for every cat easily. If only Crabpaw was allowed to dive, then he could be actually doing something useful to the clan.
The apprentice slowed to a stop and looked towards the water. Fishing for all young cats was forbidden unless accompanied by at least one warrior. Crabpaw didn't know where his mentor was and he sure wasn't going to ask Ottersplash. He was stuck on the beach, trying to hunt in the open. His tail lashed again, but he forced himself to look away from the water and to the sand. He would try hiding by the rock now. Waiting would work better than wandering. He quickly padded towards the rock.

{You're all good! Same goes with you for this small font ^^ } O r c a p a w Shoreclan | Beach | Crabpaw Orcapaw crouched still with furrowed eyebrows, obviously intently focused on something. What it was, not even she knew. A little bit of movement had caught her eye in the sand, though she had lost it a moment ago. A quiet, frustrated growl escaped her throat. She found it very irritating she wasn't allowed to fish without her mentor, or any warrior, kit-sitting her. She would be much more useful if she was! Her eyes grazed over the sand, growing more annoyed by the second, until she saw it again. Her green eyes lit up; Maybe she wouldn't be stuck looking like an inept apprentice much longer! "Gotcha!" She half meowed, half growled as she dug her claws into the sand. Her claws hit soft flesh, and she jumped back in surprise. "Wha-!" As she looked up, she realized what had happened. There was Crabpaw, hiding behind a rock, probably going on a hunting adventure of her own. She held back a small chuckle as she looked at him. "Whoops!"

Crabpaw with Orcapaw at the Beach Crabpaw yowled in combined shock and pain as he felt claws dig into his fur. His own claws unsheathed into the shifting sand to keep himself upright. His first instinct was to shake off whatever was attacking him, but before he could move, he caught the scent of a certain apprentice. Then, the claws were gone. He rolled his eyes while shaking out his pelt. Of course he would have to bump into this clanmate.
The apprentice didn't like many of his fellows. Most were loud and excited. They spoke too loud and too fast. It was hard to understand them and Orcapaw was no exception. Crabpaw hadn't spoken with the she-cat before, but he had seen enough of the she-cat to know there would be no catching of prey when she was around. After the stunt she just pulled, he would be surprised if he would be able to find prey on the entire beach. There was no use moving now. His tail had started to twitch as he thought about his next move.
"We should hunt in different parts of the beach." He said simply. With Orcapaw gone, there may be a chance for a gull or crab to show. He just needed something to bring back to camp and he wasn't going to be able to concentrate with someone near him. Especially someone like her. Just being around the half-blood she-cat made his fur twitch. It was uncomfortable.
(I'm good with the font ^^ )

O r c a p a w Shoreclan | Beach | Crabpaw Orcapaw frowned in a playful manner. "Thanks to your yowling, there'll be no prey left to find!" She meowed. The tuxedo she-cat knew how Crabpaw was; Everyone did. He acted like royalty, and that most of his clanmates were below him. Whether that's what he believed was beyond Orcapaws knowledge. However, Crabpaw was one of the 'goody-two-paws' of the apprentices. The warrior code meant everything and more to him, and she'd heard others speak about his feelings towards outsider cats. Orcapaw knew full well of her bloodline - it was important to her mother that Orcapaw knew she was only half-blood. Her mother could've easily hid it, but she understood ignorance is not bliss. Everyone in the clan knew, including Crabpaw, so she could sense the feeling he was giving off. But she wasn't one to scare off easily; It'd take more than ill feelings and passive-aggressive comments to make her go away. "But hey, hasn't your mentor been on you about learning to work with others?" She meowed. "I mean, mine hasn't, but I thought I heard yours saying something like that." She meowed with a half grin on her lips.

Crabpaw and Orcapaw at the beach A greater cat might have shut his mouth and walked away. But Crabpaw was a young apprentice with pride to protect. He tensed at the words she threw at him. His mentor had taken him aside and explained the important of cooperation, which was absolutely unnecessary, but Crabpaw knew the she-cat wasn't exactly good with others either. She caused enough trouble with her words before. He wasn't about to let a younger cat tell him off when clearly she had been the one to start all of this. There wasn't enough fish in the cove to make him back down from, what he considered to be, a challenge. Not after the cheeky smile she gave. "It's only because you dug your claws into my fur. Who mistakes a clanmate for prey? Maybe you should learn who your clanmates are." He shot back, his neck fur standing up.

I'm sorry! I should have updated the front page faster. Someone already claimed the spot. ^^' The character is a kit, so it will take two moons for them to become an apprentice. I dunno if we could work something out. I would be very open to having a young med cat though. I don't know if that would interest you. )

{Sorry I haven't been here much today! I haven't been feeling too well :c I'm here now though ^-^}
O r c a p a w Shoreclan | Beach | Crabpaw Orcapaw furrowed a brow. She wasn't used to others shooting back at her. Most knew her unforgiving tendencies and quick-witted responses, and would give up quite easily. For a heartbeat, her smile wavered. He was right; What cat mistakes a tail for a piece of prey? But she couldn't back down. She was too stubborn to back down from an argument; Almost anyone who had argued with her before knew this. Her half-grin returned. "Your tail was in the sand and I saw movement, don't pretend you wouldn't have done the same thing." She huffed turning her head a bit to the side. "And I'm not the one who scared off all the prey. Can't take a small scratch on your tail without yowling loud enough to scare everything off the beach?" She meowed, looking at him from the side. She gave her paw a quick lick and ran it over her ear, to seem uncaring of his words. To her, this was all fun and games. She loved to mess with her clan mates, and Crabpaw was one she had not yet tried to 'play' with.

No problem. Hope you fell better soon ~ )
Crabpaw and Orcapaw at the beach Crabpaw huffed. He wouldn't have been so fishbrained to have mistaken a tail for prey. A tail didn't even look like a piece of prey. Did she think she was killing a snake? They never come down to the beach and would be disgusting to eat. She probably just wanted to kill a snake because it would have been cool. As to be expected from the younger apprentice. No respect for the prey provided by the ancestors. "Like you wouldn't have." Crabpaw said, tail twitching despite the slight pain. He would never admit that he had been a bit surprised by the she-cat's attack. He wouldn't give her the pleasure. "I bet you would have scared all the prey in the forest if someone pounced on your tail and dug their claws in." He didn't even bother looking at the she-cat. Instead, he scanned the beach, as if he wasn't entirely invested in winning this 'fight'.

{Thank you! ^-^} O r c a p a w Shoreclan | Beach | Crabpaw Orcapaw nodded her head. "For the first time, I agree with you! I wouldn't have." She meowed with a small, sarcastic chuckle to her voice. She began absentmindedly scratching designs into the sand with a single claw, pretending to be bored of the conversation, while, in reality, she was determined to win it. In her mind, she has never lost an argument. Obviously, she's a little biased and this may not be true, but nonetheless, she wouldn't stop until she thought she won. She finally dared to look up at him a moment, just to see what his face was expressing. He was looking off to the distance, and she quickly looked back down at her designs in the sand with a small roll of her eyes. Who did he think he is? She was obviously just joking when she made her first passive-aggressive comment. "I can handle a bit of pain, but it's okay if you can't. Not everyone is meant to be a great battler."
