Doestep's cheeks puffed out slightly at the mention of Smokestar. "Please Mothpaw. I didn't pull a Smokestar. Well, in some cases, I guess at did. At least I didn't die." She paused for a moment, looking directly at Mothpaw. "Tragically." The she-cat struck a pose with her left paw pressed against her head. "By a rock." Afterwards, Doestep flopped onto the ground. Her tail curled around her. (Oh yeah, did I pick a mentor for Sparrowpaw? If not you can pick whoever.) ”Don’t say that out loud.” Mothpaw looked a little worried as she saw his brother going over to him mate. “He’ll kill you for that.” She half joked.

Smokestar saw his mate leave the dens and purr slightly. He was happy to have finally gotten a mate, he came up to Blossomwish from behind. The LaPerm cat pressed against her fur as he licked her cheek, “Good Morning my Sweet.” He gave a loud purr.

Blossomwish ;;
The calico cat jumped a little when Smokestar came from behind her, but instantly began to purr when she realized who it was. “Good morning,” she purred, rubbing her head against his. She licked his cheek before drawing away, odd eyes bright with adoration. “Sleep well?” Blossomwish asked, her pelt brushing his.

(Ok.) “I always sleep well. I can never wake up tired, don’t want a tired leader now.” He purred and nuzzled her cheek, “How did you sleep?”

Blossomwish ;;
The leader’s mate nodded in understanding before answering his question, “I slept alright,” she mewed, a wistful tone to her voice. “But I missed you.” She gave a small pur and another lick on his cheek before heading towards the fresh-kill pile. “Wanna share something?” The calico asked, sifting through the stack to find a vole.
Sparrowpaw ;;
The small tabby was beginning to grow bored as he waited. He guessed Owlclaw was still asleep, to his dismay. Sighing, Sparrowpaw stretched, wondering if there could be anything for him to do to wake up. He glanced around, hoping some cat would whisk him away from boredom.
Peachfeather ;;
Coming to a small creek that had been formed by the floods, the medicine cat discovered some burdock root growing beside two large rocks. She purred with delight, starting to dig at the roost and pull them out. As she did so, her mind drifted. Ah, she ought to look for some marigold while she was at it. Thorn bushes were prevalent in the woods and she would need the flowering plant to heal scratches.

Doestep let out a hardy laugh. "Don't worry about it Mothpaw! I'm just joking around about our fearless leader." She bumped the apprentice with her flank. Doestep bounded around the young apprentice with a slight gusto. "Alright. Do you want to hunt? I have been dying to do something!" She whined.

Smokestar nodded, “Of course.” He went over to the pile and picked out a large duck he’d killed when he went hunting. He glanced at Mothpaw and Doestep, “Shouldn’t you two be doing something? You just sitting-“ Mothpaw interrupted him, “Doestep and I were going to go hunting just now!” Smokestar gave a cold stare at the fact that he was interrupted, “Good.” There was a hesitation in his tone, he turned to Sparrowpaw who was sitting around. “Sparrowpaw, quit being lazy and do something!” He ordered before heading back to his mate. He nuzzled her and gave her the prey. (Is Blossomwish expecting kits now?) Mothpaw stuck her tongue out at her brother before turning to Doestep.

The she-cat watched her mate grab the duck and then command his warriors. She felt a small pang of unease at his harsh tone, but passed it off as him just being a leader. She gave a small smile at Smokestar as he nuzzled her and settled down to eat. She took a large bite of the prey; her appetite has grown for some odd reason. (she’s pregnant but doesn’t know it yet.)
Sparrowpaw ;;
Sparrowpaw nearly glared at Smokestar when he was accused of laziness. “I was just waiting for Owlclaw,” he muttered, rising up and glancing at the leader. He was one to talk - he was just lounging around with his mate! Even at his young age he was surprised to see such a sweet cat like Blossomwish be mates with a cat like Smokestar. He padded over to Mothpaw and Doestep, immediately feeling shy around the female apprentice. “Can I join? I don’t want to be yelled at anymore.”

(Ok.) “You’ve been eating a lot lately. Do you want more?” Smokestar’s voice changed to a kinder tone, one he only used for his mate. Mothpaw thought he was controlling but he assumed she was jealous that he had a mate. She never seemed to be happy for him, at least she was nice to Blossomwish.
Mothpaw smiled at the apprentice, “Sure.” She said, “Sorry about my brother...”

Blossomwish ;;
“I’ve only started eating,” the she-cat pointed out with a laugh. Was she really eating that much? She felt rather embarrassed.. the she-cat has been more hungry than usual lately. She’s also been more irritable and tired as well, which is uncharacteristic for her. Blossomwish continued to eat the duck, her fluffy tail flicking as she ate.
Sparrowpaw ;;
The apprentice shrugged, averting his gaze. “It’s fine. Not your fault.” He looked over at Doestep, asking, “What’s the plan?” He hoped it wasn’t hunting; he’d rather patrol the boarders instead of catch prey. He’s been doing a lot of that lately.

Smokestar remained by his mate’s side, he stood with his curly tail curled around her. Of course he loved her, why does Mothpaw think differently. Even some of his warriors thought it was confusing for Blossomwish to pick him as her mate. Smokestar let her eat as much as she wanted before his nibbled at the meat.
Mothpaw gave a shy smile, she hoped to patrol too. She liked gathering herbs for the medicine cat even though she wasn’t a medicine cat apprentice. She never could stand the harsher side of that role, all the blood and death would be too much.

Blossomwish ;;
The furry calico took a few more large bites of the duck before sliding it to Smokestar. She wasn’t entirely full, but she wanted to save some for her mate. She scored a little closer to her mate, sighing contently. A lot of her Clanmates would often give her sideglances because she was the leader’s mate. Yes, she knew he could have a rather cold side, but he’s shown nothing but love to her. Truly, Blossomwish was happy. The only thing dragging her down was not feeling 100% lately.
Peachfeather ;;
Soon Peachfeather was done digging up the roots and had them all in a neat pile. She would also collect the leaves and use them for different reasons. She gathered the herbs in a large leaf and would search for marigold on her way back. Entering the camp, Peachfeather had little luck finding marigold. She found a few flowers and stripped the leaves, but that was it. She noticed Smokestar and Blossomwish relaxing together and felt a pang of slight jealousy. Sometimes she wished she could have a mate and kits, but her role prevented her of this. She waved her tail in greeting to her brother, Applefall, and disappeared into her den.

Smokestar are the rest of the duck, when he finished, he stood and stretched. “I’m going off on a patrol, care to join me?” He asked , he tilted his head at the sight of Blossomwish’s condition. “Are you sure you’re well?” He asked concerningly. He hoped she hadn’t gotten sick.
Leopardtail was out training Spiderpaw however it wasn’t going as smoothly as either of them wanted. “Come on!” The warrior cried out as he slashed at the apprentice. Spiderpaw apologized and ducked at the warrior’s claws. He stumbled back into a pool of water, Leopardtail growled and stepped back. “What kind of fighter are you!? You’re awful!”

Blossomwish ;;
”Sure,” Blossomwish obliged, standing and puffing out a breath. Who knew standing could be hard? She flashed her mate a smile, masking her concern. “I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’m just tired.” She tapped his flank with her tail, telling him to not worry over her and think about the Clan. She was looking forward to getting out of the camp; it can be confining sometimes.

“Alright.” Smokestar shrugged, he touched noses with his mate and went over to the camp entrance. He looked back and waited for his mate, he wondered if he should ask Peachfeather about Blossomwish’s health. She seemed heavy and slower? Smokestar decided to ignore his thoughts and waited.

Otterpaw dunked his paw in the water and splashed it at his mentor. He looked at her. "W-Was that a good try?"

Dappledleaf nodded, "It's like you've done it before." She praised. "Try again but scoop up sand and small rocks, I'd say aim for the eyes but for me. Don't."

Blossomwish ;;
The she-cat followed Smokestar, pawsteps seeming heavier than normal. She sighed quietly, beginning to grow worried for her health. Sure, she wasn’t the most athletic cat in the Clan, but this was abnormal. She pushed those thoughts aside, however, and asked, “Where to?” She walked right next to her mate so their pelts brushed.

Rolling her eyes slightly, Doestep cantered towards the camp entrance. The she-cat's expression focused on the sound of the babbling river. She imagined the fish jumping from the water, splashing about in the serene water. "Alright Mothpaw! Let's go!" The she-cat purred loudly before bounding off.

Mothpaw looked at Sparrowpaw and smiled a little, she then went off and followed Doestep. She giggled at the warrior's enthusiasm. It reminded her of a kit discovering snow for the first time.

Smokestar brushed his tail against his mate's back, "We can circle around the territory. Maybe go by the Deer Thicket?" He thought that bringing her there would relax her a little. He looked over his shoulder, he checked everything before concluding the camp would be fine without him.

Doestep eagerly bounded past the gnarled roots pushing from the wet earth and arched branches of the willow trees above. A canopy of different shades of dark green leaves clustered above the she-cat's head, letting faint sunlight stream down and hit the forest floor. Smiling, Doestep couldn't help but let the earthy scents of the marshlands overcome her senses. However, something warm and small immediately hit her mouse. Could it be a mouse? Or maybe it was a vole? "Hey Mothpaw! Do you smell that too?" She whipped her head around to the apprentice.

(I'm gonna go for a bit) (My writing sucks compared to everyone in this forum haha) Mothpaw followed slowly as she got sidetracked by the scenery around her. She looked down at a crystal pool of water and pawed slightly at the tadpoles swimming around. She walked beside the warrior when she was spoken to, the young cat took a sniff of the wind. "I smell...something...I can't make up the difference."

(( *paps* You are doing great! :3 ))
"I think it might be a mouse...You know what we must do first Mothpaw? This is a very important step to hunting these little guys." She mewed to the younger cat pawing at the small pond of water. Her ears pinned straight to her skull as her hunches lowered down. Doestep's claws unsheathed and ripped against the soft earth, leaving thin lines in the mud.

Blossomwish ;;
”Sounds good to me,” Blossomwish replies, her meow soft. The Deer Thicket was probably her favorite spot in the whole territory; especially during greenleaf. She cast her worries aside and brightened up, even though her body felt sluggish and tired.
Sparrowpaw ;;
The tom blinked as Mothpaw smiled shyly at him, making his pelt grow hot. He pushed his feelings away and trotted after the two, tail twitching as he went. What did that smile mean? Doestep’s bright personality was almost annoying the the young cat - it was nearly the opposite of his own. He suddenly wished - even though he was with Mothpaw - he didn’t tag along. He did, however, catch the same scent they were tracking and identified it as a mouse. His ears pricked, he listened for the sound of scurrying feat, but the forest around him muffled any chance of hearing anything.

(I just feel like I write the same sentences or use the same words. I suck when it comes to descriptions.) Mothpaw smelled the air again, “I think it is a mouse...” She felt she was only saying that to please Doestep, she still didn’t catch the scent. Mothpaw knew this was more of a personal problem as she was a poor hunter. Whenever she tried smelling for prey, she’d catch the scent of a hundred other things and if she tried listening, she’d get distracted by all the sounds of the wetland.
Smokestar nodded, “Good.” He purred and patrolled off west near the Dew Pools. He liked to check there first whenever he patrolled as he tended to catch the scent of passing loners that liked to relax there or a lazy warrior. He pushed through the tall grass, leaving a clearer path for Blossomwish, he checked back on her every once in a while. Eventually he passed the Burial Dam. He stopped in his trail, his focus was on that cursed dam. He felt a sharp pain in his heart whenever he walked by it.
