WinterWolf smiled after his brother and held back a cough until he was sure he was gone. The cough came on strong, shaking his entire body until he lacked the energy to even keep his head up and so it lopped down into his nest. He looked around the elders den, knowing that it was time and wanting to familiarize with the den for the last time. He almost believed he saw the starry figure of IvyDrop, his old mate who had died from greencough while expecting their first litter. He leaned forward, wanting to feel her soft fur but lacked the energy and only lay still. A smiled graced his face as he took a long rattling breath, closed his green eyes, and was swept away to the hunting grounds of their ancestors. The last words he aid before hi death were, "I love you... brother."
--
DappleKit looked up at ScatterFlight and then sniffed at the herbs once more until he found another familiar one. "This is catmint. It helps heal whitecough, greencough, and if need be, blackcough." He stood back, proud of himself. "I have a friend with stars in her fur. She told me about some of the different herbs. Though I can only see her at night when I'm asleep."

((and he wasn't even there to hear it how sad))
--
Scatterflight pushed the herbs around with his nose, mumbling quietly to himself in confusion about how the kit somehow knew the names of herbs he'd never before come in contact with. "Stars in her fur, mhm.." He echoed the kit, not exactly thinking about what he was truly saying; once he finally realized his head shot up so fast that a dock leaf followed it, sticking to his nose without him noticing. "What's her name? Did she tell you?" He was breathless with excitement, his eyes wide and his tail swaying. Bramblekit pouted as she watched the two interact, still bothered by her injury and wondering if she and Snowkit were ever going to get treated.

I'll just make up at cat. This she-cat can be OakFall's mentor))
DappleKit nodded and a smiled crossed his face. "Her name is StarLily! She's really nice! And she knows all about herbs." He then cocked his head to the side before grabbing dock leaves and padding to his siblings. He knew how to treat cuts like because of StarLily and so chewed the leaves before dribbling the juice onto the cuts.

Scatterflight could swear he'd heard that name before but forgot all about it when the movement of the kit pulled him out of his thoughts. He watched, allowing Dapplekit to treat the wounds of his littermates, then made his way over and sniffed at the cuts. "Good work, though cobwebs should have been used first so the dock doesn't just run from the wound with the blood. But still, for a kit you did really, really well." He congratulated the small tom with a nod of his head, sort of excited to see a young cat with an interest in herbs. He didn't relate, as he only had the drive of a warrior when he was a kit, but it still brought him a strange sense of pride. "Stupid herbs, they sting." Bramblekit complained, huffing as she tried to wipe the juice from her cut, not at all liking how it felt or smelled on her fur. She pretty much ignored the exchange between her littermate and the medicine cat, too focused on resolving her own little problem.
((Sorry this one is short and bad, it's nearly 5am and I haven't slept yet. Had a rough night lol))

DappleKit nodded, recording the information in his head. "I'll remember that next time. Thanks ScatterFlight!" He then turned to BrambleKit and swatted her paw away from the cut. "Don't mess with it. The juice from the dock has to get into the wound so it can heal." He then looked at SnowKit and narrowed his eyes at her. The paw she had just been about to wipe across the cut immediately lay down on the ground beside her again.

Scatterflight let out a small purr as he watched Dapplekit, amused by the stern warning he gave to the two she-kits. "You three should head off, I need to speak with Flurrystar. Plus, I'm sure your mother and father are wondering where you are." The three-legged tom slipped from the den and made his way toward the leader. "Come on, let's go find Emberkit and get him back for this!" Bramblekit nudged Snowkit, darting off before her littermate even had time to respond.
Dawnfire spotted his kits finally emerging from the medicine cat's den and straightened up, knowing that his time with Emberkit was done now. "Go apologize." He urged, watching the small tom huff as he approached his siblings. Once he was gone he gave an anxious look toward Snowdrop, hoping that she wouldn't be angry with him for going so easy on Emberkit.

DappleKit followed his sisters out of the den before scampering off toward the elders den. Maybe WinterWolf has a new story to tell me today! He sped up at the top before slowing as he reached the den. Padding in the kit spotted the old tom in his nest sleeping and padded over. Prodding the elder with his paw he urged him to wake. "WinterWolf. I wanna hear another story. Please." He twitched his ears when the elder didn't wake and immediately could tell something wasn't right. He didn't move though, only yowled loudly. "ScatterFlight! Something's wrong with WinterWolf!"

((I'm going to make another warrior aha Mostly because I realized we'd be a little short on mentors when the kits became apprentices))
As soon as the kit spoke Scatterflight was limping out of the leader's den as fast as he could, tail bristled with worry and his eyes wide. Even with his accelerated movement Flurrystar still beat him to the Elder's den, his breath coming in wheezes from his run and his entire body rigid with alarm. "Winterwolf, wake up," He breathed, coughing weakly as he nudged his littermate's body with his nose. He could feel that it was cold and limp but refused to accept the truth, lifting his head to glare at the medicine cat. "Make him better," He spat, the fur along his back raising in a threatening way, as if daring someone to tell him what was obviously true. With an anxious sigh Scatterflight approached the body, settling himself down and looking over it, checking for anything that could be wrong. "Dapplekit, I think it best that you leave the den. Please fetch Snowinglight, I think she'll be needed." His meow was slow and as calm as he could make it; he felt very on-edge, aware that Flurrystar may attack him if he pronounced his kin dead.

DappleKit nodded quickly and ran from the den, looking around for SnowingLight he spotted the she-caat y the leaders den and raced over to her. "SnowingLight! ScatterFlight needs you in the elders den. Somethings wrong with WinterWolf." The kit then sat down and tried to steady his breathing.
SnowingLight was immediately on her paws and raced to the elders den. When she entered she looked toward where FlurryStar and ScatterFlight were standing beside WinterWolf. She padded up slowly. "WinterWolf?"

"He's with StarClan now." Scatterflight stated, quickly moving to hide behind Snowinglight when Flurrystar's hindquarters tense for a leap. "I can't control what happens, Flurrystar. I'm sorry, but he was old and he passed away."
Flurrystar snarled at the tom, eyes blown wide with panic and anger and his fur looking as if someone had combed it all backward. The old tom stood in that aggressive pose for a few minutes before sitting down, the grief taking over and his body simply slumping. "Leave me be. I'm done being leader. I'm done taking care of all of these cats. If StarClan is wise they'll take me soon." He lay beside his brother's body, pressed into the fur with his eyes closed and soft wheezes coming from him.
Scatterflight straightened up slowly, watching their former leader grieve his littermate and wondering if he should intervene. Deciding it would be a bad thing, the tom ushered Snowinglight out of the Elders den and into the camp, limping alongside her. "You know what this means, don't you? Flurryst-.. Flurrysnow is no longer our leader. You're the one who needs to take his place; we need to travel down the mountain and visit StarClan and you need to appoint a new deputy. Plus put a cat in charge while we're gone.. I'll go gather the traveling herbs before I forget.." He mumbled, not even waiting for the she-cat to respond as he made his way hurriedly back to his den.

Sorry!! Was crocheting))
SnowingLight sat down, keeping the cal and wise composure that she had been gifted with since she was a kit, never letting her emotions get ahead of her. She slowly thought about the events. WinterWolf's death, FlurryStar finally deciding to retire after the tragic event. She sighed lightly before gazing around, her ears twitching now and then. She started going through cats in her head, possible deputies and someone to take over and watch the camp while she was away. MinnowSplash could care for the camp. She was responsible enough and most got along with her. Standing, SnowingLight padded to the she-cat, flicking her tail in greeting. "MinnowSplash, I need you to watch over the camp. ScatterFlight and me are heading down the mountain to visit StarClan. Flurry...star is in the elders den. Please make sure he is not disturbed. I will announce why before I leave."

Post by mabari on May 10, 2018 0:27:56 GMT -5
Don't apologize, I understand! I was bumping the thread because I kinda want some more members lol))
Minnowsplash huffed and flicked her ear, not very enthused by the responsibility she was being given. "Praise StarClan." She muttered dryly and in a sarcastic manner, bringing herself to her paws. She was slightly curious as to why the trip down the mountain was so necessary but wouldn't bother asking, not wanting to appear interested and catch the attention of other cats. Instead she simply strode to the fresh-kill pile and chose a vole for herself, settling down to eat in a private area of camp.
Scatterflight soon returned with two bundles of herbs in his mouth, setting one down in front of Snowinglight and basically gulping down the other. Clearly anxious, the tom began muttering to himself and scraping his claws in the dirt, lost in thoughts that moved to fast for him to properly process and explain. After a while he startled, shaking his head and taking a deep breath to calm himself. "Sorry", he began, slightly breathless, "It's been a long while since there was any need to travel down the mountain. I hope I still know the way." The directions weren't the true issue, since he, as a medicine cat, was the only one besides Flurrystar who was made to memorize them; he was actually worried that he'd slow Snowinglight down due to his lack of a leg. Thinking about his missing leg only sprouted new worries about falling again and losing another, or perhaps even his life. Even with all of this in his head he was still as prepared as he could be to leave, since he knew he had a responsibility to the Clan and to Snowinglight. Plus, he was aware that he needed to get used to these trips- as soon as he had an apprentice, which didn't seem like a time too far off, he'd need to take them on trips to have them memorize the route.

SnowingLight nodded quickly to MinnowSplash before turning toward ScatterFlight. "It's okay. I'm sure you remember the way. If any of us should be freaking out it's me." She laughed lightly though her fur did prickle from nervousness.

((I'm trying to think of some drama we can stir up))
"Don't freak out, if you do I will too." He laughed anxiously, trying to keep his emotions under control. "We have to head out very soon if we want to make it down the mountain by sundown, so I'd suggest you have those herbs and some type of prey if you can stomach it." The tom paced lightly as he waited for the she-cat to do as he said, wanting to head out before he froze up or refused to go.

SnowingLight nodded, eating the herbs quickly before glancing around. "Everyone! ScatterFlight and me are heading to speak with StarClan! I ask that FlurryStar is not disturbed." She thrn nodded to the medicine cat. "Lets go."
(Ok. We need to make nine starclsn cats. I can handle a lot of cats so I could make four and maybe you can make four? One of thrm are going to be WinterWolf. Others are going to be HazelPaw (her dead sister) MoonPearl (her mother) LynxClaw (her first love), SunSwallow (her father)))

((I already have Oakfall as a StarClan cat so she could be one? I could make one Flurrystar and Winterwolf's father, who was probably considered a great leader Um Maybe a cat that mentored Snowinglight? And then maybe a good friend?))
Scatterflight moved as quickly as he could toward the entrance of camp, nudging Snowinglight so the she-cat would follow him. The fur on his shoulders was standing up but he kept moving, ears pinning to his head as cold wind and snow brushed against his face; he could already tell that this would be a difficult journey to make.

Hmmm. I likw thise ideas. Go ahead, you can choose the names. I'll make the forms for mine in a little while. I'm on my phone currently and it's a littlr hard to type))
SnowingLight followed the tom, making sure to adjust her pace so she stayed in step with him. She fluffed up her fur against the cold. Her eyes shifted back and forth slowly, trying to record the route in her mind.

((Alright. My forms for my StarClan cats are going to be kept short and simple since they're not 'main' characters))
Scatterflight stayed quiet for the most part, simply shivering as he limped along, his thin frame not doing much to keep him warm. "I hope to StarClan that we'll be there soon." He mumbled, his voice lost in the buffeting wind that felt as if it were pounding against his body. He lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, though kept them open to watch for falls and unsteady surfaces. "Stay close to me," He shouted to Snowinglight, concerned that the she-cat would move too far off of the path they were to walk. "Too many places to slip around here."
