Palepaw widened her eyes a bit. βI havenβt seen him since this morning...β she admitted, then sighed. βHopefully it hasnβt gotten worse than a fever.β She gently dipped her head to Firepaw in goodbye, then rushed off to the medicine den with the mouse in her jaws. She doubted he would eat, but she already felt bad for not seeing him the rest of the day. She dropped the mouse in the doorway and stuck her head inside. [Hey guys! Hope you all had a good Christmas! I won't be able to reply much while my family is in town but I recently finished m finals too! ] Bluepool perked up as Goldenstrike spoke, but his frail figure made her look back down at her prey. She pawed at it slightly, her stomach slightly turning as she did so. "Yeah, I'm... not very hungry today," she replied. "Would you like the rest?"

Dovecloud slowly approached Robinwhisper and set next to the grieving queen. At first she wasn't sure what to say, and wondered why she even tried talking to Robinwhisper. But memories of her own mother's death came to her, and she sighed a bit. "I... I'm sorry," she whispered, pulling further into herself. "At least she died... protecting the Clan." Robinwhisper's heavy sobs had turned into silent tears rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably. When the soft she-cat pressed against her side, she buried her nose into her fluffy chest. Nothing mattered in that moment but the pain of the loss of her mother, but even so her words had meant a glimmer of something to the calico.

Goldenstrike didn't feel very hungry either, but he knew it would upset her if he at least didn't try. He leaned forward to sniff at the bird, then took a small bite and chewed slowly. Hopefully he would keep it down tonight. His ear flicked at the sound of wailing outside the den, and he turned to look into the clearing. "What's going on?"

Dovecloud let Robinwhisper muzzle her chest and just closed her eyes.
Twigkit came out of the nursery, but stopped when she noticed her mother crying. She sat in the clearing and tilted her head sadly, eyes wide. Should she walk over there and say something to help her? Robinwhisper didn't much look like she wanted too much company right now...

Cinderlight decided to let Russetpaw rest alone for a bit, seeing that Palepaw was coming in. She brushed past her daughter with a lick on her head, then sat on the edge of the clearing. She heard Robinwhisper's cries and Hawkjaw's explanation for what had happened, but couldn't find the words to say or comfort her with. She wrapped her tail around her paws and stared at the horizon for quite a few moments, then glanced over at the Moonpool. How she wished Falconwing was still here to comfort and cheer her up... She sighed and turned away. Blackscale didn't deserve thoughts like that.

Tracekit followed his sister, eyes wide with shock at the appearance of their mother. βWhatβs wrong with mom?β He worried frantically, looking around to be sure there was no immediate danger. Nothing seemed to be happening in the clearing. All the cats, however, wore somber expressions. Whatβs happened?

Hawkjaw glanced at Robinwhisper nuzzling into Dovecloud, then continued with a raised voice. βWe will honor Dreamwave tonight with a vigil in the clearing.β With nothing left to say, the weight of the eyes of the clan cats seemed to sear through his pelt. It felt as though he was obliged to do something, anything to help his grieving clanmates. When their looks became too much, he ducked his head and excused himself back to the makeshift warriorsβ den. Where is Skystar? he questioned begrudgingly as he lay stiffly in his nest. He would better know how to announce this stuff than me.

Twigkit looked at Tracekit and shrugged. "I don't know," she admitted, having not paid attention until now. "She was asking about Dreamwave earlier, though..." She flicked her skinny tail thoughtfully. "Do you think we should ask her?"
((ive realized that if palepaw gets the name palesky then stormpaw is like a storm in her sky and thats corny and good,,, russetpaw's gotta be russetwing to complete the circle hmm what're stormpaw and firepaw's names gonna be))

Tracekit wore a puzzled expression on his face. "I don't know, maybe something happened to Dreamwave..." He trailed off thoughtfully.
"Do you really think we should bother her?" He asked, flicking his tail toward the obviously grieving queen. Robinwhisper still had her face buried in Dovecloud's chest. Their mother had never seemed so miserable.

Twigkit shook her head. "No. I guess she'll just tell us when she wants to," she said, her eyes softening. She looked up at the darkening sky, the sun well into setting and the first warrior ancestors dotting Silverpelt. "Do you think the rogues would attack us in the middle of the night?"

Hazelshine sat in silence for a moment, agreeing with that statement at least. "Do you plan on sitting vigil for her?" she asked, glancing between Fallenrain and Yellowheart. She would sit out for just a while, since Daisybug would probably want her in the medicine den while she goes to the Moonpool tonight.

Tracekit nodded his head furtively. βThey did last time, didnβt they?β Furrowing his brows, he added, βI wish the mange pelts would try!β He couldnβt share in his sisterβs softened gaze. The kitβs hackles has risen. βIf rogues is whatβs bugging the clan then someone needs to do something about them. Weβve been sitting in this stupid clearing long enough.β

She would sit out for just a while, since Daisybug would probably want her in the medicine den while she goes to the Moonpool tonight. Fallenrain nodded, a glazed look in her eyes. She hadnβt been listening to the conversation of the two cats closely, but Hazelshineβs question drew her back in. βDreamwave was the cat that found me all those moons ago and brought me to the clan.β She whispered softly. βPaying her respect is the least I could do.β Rising to her paws, the ticked tabby motioned with her head towards the middle of the clearing. βShall we go now?β

Twigkit twisted around to look at him. βWhat do you suggest we do?β she asked, her tone level but firm. βAttack them and risk more cats getting poisoned and killed? Obviously attacking at night doesnβt make a difference.β She shook out her coat. βMaybe fighting isnβt the answer anymore.β

Hazelshine nodded and stood back up. βYeah, sure,β she agreed, then started hobbling alongside Fallenrain to the clearingβs center. Hazelshine hadnβt known Dreamwave too well, other than her being a well-respected senior warrior, but of course she still felt sorrow for her and her family. βThe rogues have left us alone so far, I hope they donβt pick tonight of all nights to mess things up again.β
((i think when daisybug goes to the moonpool grackle can meet her there and thatβs when he can be like βhey give us this clearing and ill give you this drugβ and sheβll be like βum no???β and skystar would lose his lives and hawkjaw can suggest they go to the other side of the mountain
also if grackle dies whoβs gonna be their medicine cat hmm))

And I guess we can always ask Fort to make a character to fill that space lolol. Was gremlin going to join the βrogue clanβ too? I think once the rogues are banished fr from the MoonPool Iβll make a page for that RP. No need to clutter Groveclan with that clanβs business. Then we can have expanded and become a 2 clan thing instead of a single clan rp ΒΏ ))) Fallenrain cast a sideways glance at Hazelshine struggling beside her. She felt thankful that she hadnβt encountered the rogues, but then sighed guiltily as she realized that was no way for a warrior to think. I should have been in the midst of that battle. I should be more brave like Dreamwave. Remorse gripped her heart as the two cats reached the middle of the clearing and she cat her eyes upwards to the sky. The images of Groveclanβs ancestors above her helped her mood none. Dreamwave is up there now, is that where Iβll go when I die?

((yeah that would be cool!! itβd be interesting if whisperwing helped the medicine cat learn herbs and stuff for a bit π))
Twigkit shrugged. βProbably not,β she said with a glance to where Hawkjaw went back to his den. βThe rogues seem quick to fighting. Maybe theyβre playing it safe for now?β At least, she hoped they were doing something to help the situation. She didnβt want to spend her apprenticeship in this clearing!

Hazelshine settled onto her side to let her leg rest, then lifted her muzzle as Fallenrain did. βIβm sure sheβs at peace now,β she mused, her voice quieter for the other mourning cats. Drowning probably wasnβt a quick and painless death; she wondered what ran thought Dreamwaveβs head before she died.

βIβm sure.β Fallenrain agreed absentmindedly. She turned her head back down to Hazelshine. The appearance of the other warriorsβ leg bothering her a bit. βDoes it hurt?β She asked in a hushed tone.

Hazelshine glanced down at it and shook her head. βNot much anymore, which is probably a bad thing,β she grumbled. βOnly when I use it too much.β

βAt least you can still feel it when itβs overused.β She replied. Guessing she knew what Hazelshine meant by it being a bad thing, she continued tentatively. βWhat will you do if you donβt recover?β She meant no harm by this comment, but as soon as it left her mouth she cursed herself beneath her breath. Grief must make cats forget their manners.

Hazelshine narrowed her eyes and continued looking at her leg, avoiding eye contact. βPerhaps Iβll just move in with Loudstep,β she half-joked, then rested her head on the ground. βI still have Firepaw to train, but I donβt want her to fall behind, and I donβt want to give her to someone else. Iβm thinking another warrior can help me out until my leg doesnβt hurt so bad.β Her tail lashed across the ground angrily, but it wasnβt directed at Fallenrain.
