(Sorry for my big poof!)
Lynxstorm tapped his tail, a hint of concern in his eyes. Where had his apprentice gone? He gave a thick sigh, feeling bad. He should have kept better track of things. Once he did see the apprentices, he gave a breath of relief and slight sternness.
“Where did you two go? I was worried you’d been hurt or lost!”.
Mountainheart and Acorntail spoke quietly, the massive brown tom towering over his mother, but eyeing her with his usual gentle and respectful looks.
Frozenstar found himself unable to sleep, mind too muddled with thoughts. In that moment he missed Doveflight, her presence at his side, her warm laugh and stern cuffs when he worked himself too hard. He eyed the empty part of his nest that he had never removed, even as her scent had faded by now.

(Haha it's alright.)
Roselight chuckled at Lynxstorm's overprotectiveness. "Oh, no need to be so harsh, we were all apprentices at one point," she pointed out. Even she had struggled to impress her mentor when she was young, as many apprentices wanted to do. "Besides, they're not kits anymore. They have enough training by now to at least defend themselves in the worst case scenario. Though you two should have at least told us you were going out on your own. Even for grown warriors, leaving without telling anyone where you're going can be dangerous, especially if you get into trouble." She spoke with a calm firmness that showed her experience as a mentor and also as a mother, being quite adept at handling the younger generation. At Harepaw's mention of catching the mouse, she spotted the pair's catch. "Ah, so that's what you were up to!" she purred, pleased. "It's always honorable to bring home food for your Clan. Well done."
Turtlepaw stiffened some at her mentor's worried expression. She hadn't meant to disappear for long, just for a short hunt. She ducked her head some. "Sorry, we, er, thought you might not notice we were gone. We just wanted to see if we could find something to bring back, for practice," she replied. "We weren't lost, we stayed close to camp. But we caught something, see? It's been kinda hard to hunt because of the cold, so we hoped it would help out, just a little."

Lynxstorm gave a flick of his ear, wanting to be cross but finding it not worth it, so long as they were safe. “Well, I suppose bringing back prey makes up for the lack of communication. So long as you are unharmed, I’m not too cross with you. Though, I still expect you to be ready to train when I call for it.” He lightened up a bit, his amber eyes flashing as he smirked.

(I have Silvershadow open if anyone wants to rp with the old Flashclan warrior)
Nightkit rolled to her paws and puffed out her chest proudly, making her look like a huge ball of fur. "I want to be an apprentice!" She chirped happily.

"Sorry, we'll let you know next time we want to go out on our own," Turtlepaw prommised with a respectful dip of her head. "We did good though, right? I've been practicing a lot to keep up with Dawnpaw." Turtlepaw's rivalry with her littermate was no secret, and it was that kind of rivalry that pushed her to constantly practice and become a better warrior.
Roselight smiled at her apprentice, bumbing her nose against Harepaw's cheek in an affectionate manner. "Nonsense, every bit counts in this weather," she assured, reaffirming Harepaw's thoughts. "If you two were on a true hunting patrol, you'd be out all morning catching as much as you could and honing your skills, but as it stands, this happens to be a little extra that wasn't planned for."

He then eyed the prey and then Turtlepaw with a hint of knowing. Even so, he nodded and assured. “Of course you did good, the prey looks good. You’ve always been a hard working hunter, I’m not surprised you caught such good prey.” He praised with a smirk.

Thornpaw nodded, perking his ears up. He rose to his paws and padded after his mother as she headed towards Turtlepaw and Harepaw. The golden-brown tabby waved a greeting to the pair with his tail, blinking warmly at them. "Nice catch," he commented, eyeing the prey dangling from Harepaw's jaws.

Blackear chuckled at the kit's words and topped her over again with his much larger paw. "I think you've got a bit more growing to do before you become an apprentice," he purred, rocking her from side to side. "You'll get there, though, don't you worry."
"Thanks, Thornpaw! We caught it all on our own!" Harepaw perked up again, her tail rising. "I'll go put it on the fresh-kill pile!" she exclaimed, snatching up the mouse and sprinting the short distance to the pile of prey. She dropped it on top and sprinted back, eyes wide with excitement. "What should we do now?" she asked, looking up at her mentor with eagerness in her eyes.

Nightkit laughed as she was pushed back and forth. "That means I have more time to practice before I can be an apprentice!" She wiggled happily on the ground while on her side, making it a strange but cute sight to see.

Midnightsnow let out a Yelp when she bumped into sungaze. As she cried out she fell backwards onto her side. "Sungaze!" She mewed, her voice giving away to shakiness before she started laughing, "I said not to stop suddenly you big goof."

Bluesmoke shrugged to her question, the large Tom's well groomed fur catching in the light. "We can keep hunting, I dont mind." He answered softly before peeking his ears to listen for more prey

Winterkit giggled bouncing up and down as she watched blackear and night kit. She pricked her ears as she looked back at the nursery, wondering when her mother would wake up.

Thornpaw purred at Harepaw, finding his denmate's enthusiasm and obvious pride over her catch rather energising. He certainly wasn't energetic by any definition of the word, and even watching Harepaw bound around with so much excitement tired him out a little bit, but he couldn't deny that her eagerness rubbed off on him a little; now he was quite keen to get out and catch something of his own to impress the Clan. "If we're going out hunting, you could catch something even better," he mewed, giving the she-cat a friendly nudge.

The purring tom poked Nightkit's side. "Keep that up and Frozenstar might make you NightClan's first worm apprentice," he meowed, whiskers twitching with amusement. He glanced back towards the other two kits, playfully stalking towards them. "Looks like you two need to be rolled out to!" Blackear lashed out, carefully toppling over Winterkit.
Cloudstep hummed in acknowledgement and flicked her ears. She scanned the area and chose a direction, beginning to trot forwards. As she walked, she heart the soft patter of small paws. She stopped and spotted a good sized vole running with a mouthful of leaves. It must be heading to its den, she figured as she dropped into a crouch. Better move fast before it gets away. She pushed off, pelting in the direction of the creature. It squeaked in surprise and sped up, but Cloudstep was already on top of it. The large she-cat swiftly snatched it up by the neck, killing it quickly. She looked back in Bluesmoke's direction, tail tip flicking happily.
"You're right!" Harepaw exclaimed. "Maybe we can catch something together!" She directed her excited look towards her denmates around her before returning it to her mentor. "Can we go hunting? Please?"

"We could catch a huge squirrel or a bird!" Thornpaw suggested, his tail moving increasingly quickly from side to side on the ground. He glanced at Roselight, his yellow eyes imploring, hoping that she would give her permission. He was actually excited to hunt with his denmates for the first time in what felt like seasons.

Winterkit giggled as she fell over, "night kit! Get him! Get him!" She flailed her paws as she called out for assistance

Bluesmoke skiles at her before crouching down and stalking towards the bushes. He paused, taking in a breath before lunging forward to catch a thrush that was hiding in the branches. He backed up with his catch, a few stray leaves tangled in his fur

(Sure, I don't see why Sunflowerpaw couldn't come!)
Turtlepaw flashed Harepaw a grin of success in response to Lynxstorm's praise, bouncing on her toes. "Thanks Lynxstorm!" she meowed, barely picking up any mention of the hunting patrol before she was off again, presumeably to brag to Dawnpaw about her shared kill.
Roselight chuckled. "Still up for more, hm? Well, if you think you can handle it, of course you can come along. Extra practice never hurts, as long as you don't overexert yourself," she replied with a smile. She glanced toward Lynxstorm, tilting her head at the younger warrior. "What about you, Lynxstorm? Care to join us?" she asked.
"S-Sorry, there was a mouse, and it startled me," Sungaze stammered in response, obviously embarrassed. It was just a mouse, not even a bat. He cleareed his throat to change the subject. "Well, er, I guess there's nowhere to go but forward," he added, continuing the trek onward. By now the cave was entirely black, not a sliver of sunlight to light the way. He just hoped they'd be able to find another exit soon, if only to reorient himself. He had no idea where in the territory they were at this point. He paused after a moment, coming to a fork in the path. "The path splits ahead, which way should we go?" he asked over his shoulder.

Nightkit sprang to her paws and ran over to Blackbear. The tiny kit pawed at the warrior's tail and let out cute little growls of play. "I got him Winterkit!"

(you can toss someone in with Blackear and the kits, if you'd like!)
Blackear gasped and flopped over dramatically. "Oh Starclan, looks like I'll be meeting you early! How could I, the great and powerful Blackear, be defeated?" He rolled onto his back, wiggling and flailing his paws. Finally, he rolled onto his stomach, closed his eyes, and stuck his tongue out. After a few moments, he peeked one eye open to look at the kits, a hint of a grin on his face.

(I have Leafscar and Tangletail open!)
Thornpaw kneaded the ground with his forepaws in anticipation, glancing hopefully at Lynxstorm. Harepaw's excitement and unbridled energy had definitely rubbed off on him, he noticed, as he twitched his tail from side to side. He hoped the older tom would agree to come, because then they'd have a full patrol and he'd be able to focus more on his hunting; he always seemed to fare better when he had older cats to prove himself to.

Thornpaw scoffed, holding his head high. "If we see any foxes, we'll tear the pelts right off 'em," he said with a laughing tone to his voice. The golden-brown tom trotted along beside Harepaw for a few moments before picking up the pace a little to walk slightly ahead, jaws parted so he could taste the air. He wanted to be the first to pick up a scent, even if he wouldn't be the first to follow it. He'd let Harepaw catch something first, he decided, to keep her happy.
