(Hey, Zz! Glad you're here to rp! Unfortunately, RiverClan is currently not in their camp. They're still chilling on the twoleggedplace page. We haven't been active enough here to get them home after the fire. I have a couple characters open if you want to rp there)

Earthstar led RiverClan through the territory, looking around to assess the damage. While there were some charred areas, he knew it was worse in the other Clans. He supposed he should be thankful that they got off as easily as they did.
Shellstream kept near the edge of the group, glad that most of the territory was still recognizable.

He supposed he should be thankful that they got off as easily as they did. Shellstream kept near the edge of the group, glad that most of the territory was still recognizable. "The territory look mostly salvageable." Diamondheart murmured as he slipped into step with his clanmates. The deputy looked around, glancing back to count each cat that was coming along. He refused to miss any clanmate, or to leave any behind. He mewed to Earthstar with a hint of relief. "I would even say that in terms of damage, we were truly spared as to what it could have been." "I say it all the time, and I'll say it again, thank Starclan for the rivers!" Foxripple puffed his chest brightly, looking around before moving to help Brookheart and Paleeyes carry their kits. "I'm in good shape. Tell me what to do to rebuild when we get to camp and I'll do it in a heartbeat." Orchidnight rasped, wanting to push away the thought of her mother's death as much as she could. The pain would be too much to focus on. The dark she-cat glanced to the side as Owlwhisker padded up. "I'm good to help as well, Earthstar."

(YAY! Back to camp!)
Frostlake gently guided her kits to the nursery upon returning to camp. Lakekit was sneezing from all the ash and soot and Frostlake did her best to keep them from tripping. Reaching camp, she was relieved to see part of the nursery still standing. We'll survive, she told herself and she smiled at her kits. It was shame that they lost six warriors to the flames. SHe glanced back over her shoulder, wondering where Ottermask was. She knew it was hard for Ottermask to be the only one who survived that patrol.
Eelshock returned to camp, carrying Mintkit in his jaws and helping Smogstorm when he could.
Ottermask was one of the last to leave the twoleggednest, wanting to make sure that no one was left behind. He didn't want to lose anyone else like he lost that patrol.
Deadpath hobbled through the territory, his ears back and his heart heavy at the sight of their territory. It would take some work for the Clan to rebuild and the deaths of Ottermask's patrol had been frightening. Deadpath trailed his gaze over to Shellstream, following her from behind. He thanked StarClan that she, Venomspirit, Ottermask, and Frostlake survived the flames. He didn't know what he'd do if he lost any of his kin or Shellstream. Finding a moment of courage, Deadpath picked up his pace to hobble closer to her. "Sh-Shellstream?" His voice cracked when he spoke, but he quickly cleared his throat.

"That's just what I was thinking." Earthstar nodded in agreement. "The river protected us from the worst of it." He was relieved to see Frostlake make it back along with Lakekit and Glacierkit, and that most of the dens were still standing. He turned to Orchidnight and Owlwhisker, happy that they were ready to help. "Let's all split up to fix any damages."
Glacierkit stumbled along behind Frostlake, looking at the ash on the ground with intrigue. It stuck to his paws whenever he stepped in it.
Shellstream perked at Deadpath's voice, looking over to him with relief. Thank StarClan he had survived, as well as all the others. "What is it?" she asked.

"Careful little one." Frostlake licked Glacierkit's ear to make sure he paid attention to where he was stepping and not too distracted by the soot. "We'll get you to the nursery and you both can wash up in the pool at the back of the den." She looked at Lakekit with concern when he started sneezing again.
"I just..." Deadpath had to clear his throat again to keep it from breaking. "I wanted to make sure you were okay...I mean..." he shrugged and looked away in embarrassment. "After the fire got the others...I'd hate for it to have gotten you too."

“I’ll round up patrols to collect materials and survey the damage.” Diamondheart nodded to Earthstar, relieved to see most of the dens and camp in good condition. His voice grew softer though, as he mewed. “We should also find and bury as many as we can that were taken by the flames...” He hated to say it, but it was a saddening reality.
Fluffpaw padded into camp, relieved to see it looking better than she expected. Starclan truly did spare them from damage, didn’t they? Her paws itched to get to work, peering after her father in hopes he would call her to help gather material.
Smogstorm thanked Eelshock as she placed Maskkit down to check him over a few times. She mewed lightly. “Your father will come in camp soon as well.”

(Aw, bye Blazer!)
Eelshock nodded in reply to Smogstorm. He put Mintkit down and padded off toward Earthstar and Diamondheart, waiting for orders.
Maskkit shook himself when his mother set him down. "I'm all dusty." He frowned at the ash that stuck to his pelt then looked around the camp. "What happened, mama?"

Kingpaw tried his best to follow along with Swanpaw. He would trip now and then on a stray branch or a hole, letting out a grunt of annoyance each time. "How far from the camp are we?" ( Moonblazer)

Glacierkit looked up at Frostlake with wide eyes. “O-okay.” He wasn’t sure that he liked the feeling of soot on his paws. It felt unfamiliar compared to the damp reeds.
Shellstream took a breath. “Me too. It was honestly scary.” She admitted. After the patrol had lost so many, she feared the worst. “But we’re all right now.” She smiled slightly at Deadpath’s concern. “I’m glad you made it.”
“Good idea.” Earthstar was proud of Diamondheart’s initiative. The tom had grown so much since being appointed deputy. “And... you’re right.” As much as Earthstar wanted to look calm, he couldn’t help but flatten his ears at the idea of his fallen Clanmates lying charred in the fire. “We can send a patrol... and only those who want to go will have to.”

"Come on." Frostlake nudged her sons toward the nursery. It appeared sturdy and safe enough for them to enter. SHe just hoped the water would relieve her kits of the ash and soot and stop Lakekit from sneezing.
Deadpath smiled softly. "I'm glad you made it too. You're my best friend, Shellstream."
"I would like to go." Ottermask slipped into the camp, catching the tail end of Earthstar's and Diamondheart's conversation. He had his ears back in grief and guilt. "I'll help search for them and help bury them. It's my fault this happened to them anyway."

"I'm all dusty." He frowned at the ash that stuck to his pelt then looked around the camp. "What happened, mama?" “There was a fire, little one. Fires are powerful things that turn the ground black and that can hurt very badly if it touches you. Fires can take you to Starclan, if they catch you.” Smogstorm explained as best as she could, grooming the soot from her son.

Kingpaw tried his best to follow along with Swanpaw. He would trip now and then on a stray branch or a hole, letting out a grunt of annoyance each time. "How far from the camp are we?" ( Moonblazer) “Almost there! I can see the last cat’s tail going in!” Swanpaw exclaimed, knowing that she and the medicine cat apprentice would be some of the last ones to go in. Even so, it was so good to see the camp again. “Keep close to my tail.”

Glacierkit followed Frostlake into the nursery, noticing that it looked quite different. The air tasted of smoke and the walls almost seemed fragile. His eyes watered slightly from the poor air.
“You’re my best friend too, Deadpath.” Shellstream said, though in her heart, she knew now that he was something more. She didn’t know what she would do without him.
Earthstar gazed sadly at Ottermask. “Are you sure? None of this was your fault, Ottermask. You shouldn’t take responsibility for their deaths. It was the fire’s fault.” he reassured. Ottermask has suffered so much from the fire. Surely he needed a break?

Diamondheart looked sadly at Ottermask, knowing how deeply his closest friend must have been grieving. He had been the only survivor of the patrol, but Diamondheart knew that patrol had probably saved alot of the territory. He could not deny him this closure. He glanced at Earthstar with a nod and offered lightly.
“Ottermask can go. I know there are others who lost kin today too.”
As though summoning by voice alone, Ospreystrike padded forwards, the young Warrior trying to look braver than she sounded. “I want to help too...I...I want to find Rosefrost. She deserves to be mourned with the rest of our family...” She sniffed.

"Ok." He stayed right behind her, trying his best to not trip and fall over all of the freshly burned branches and brush that now littered the territory. It would take him a while to get a mental map of the land once more and until then he wohld need help getting around.

Frostlake flicked her ear at the state of the nursery. The water in the back didn't even look clean enough for the kits to swim in. She sighed. "Nevermind, my kits." She smiled softly at Glacierkit and Lakekit. "We're going to go swimming in the reeds outside." Surely, the water there would be cleaner.
Deadpath smiled at her words and he found another bout of courage. "Would you--" He cut himself off when his voice squeaked and cleared his throat to try again. "Would you like to share prey later? After we help clean up some of course--I mean, you don't have too, but..." he trailed off, swallowing tightly.
"I'm sure, Earthstar." Ottermask nodded to his leader, but was too grieved to let Earthstar's words council him. He glanced at Ospreystrike and nodded once to her. Guilt pricked at him again when he realized how many were effected from his mistake out on the patrol.

Glacierkit smiled at the idea of going swimming. “Yay!” he exclaimed, wanting to forget about how strange everything was.
“Of course I would, Deadpath.” Shellstream spoke, giving him a nudge. “But let’s help clean up first. We can go together if you want.” She added.
“All right.” Earthstar nodded. He wouldn’t say no to Ottermask’s request. “You can go too, Ospreystrike. But please be safe.”
Icepath hesitated for a moment before padding forward. “I would like to go as well. I know where the most damaged parts of the territory are.” She offered. She didn’t lose any of her family in the fire, but she hoped she could help minimize the time the patrol spent out there.

Frostlake purred softly at her son's enthusiasm and padded outside to lead them to the reeds. Lakekit wen running right into the water.
Deadpath nodded back to her. "I would like that." He purred lightly then looked ahead, wondering where Earthstar and Diamondheart would have them help out.
Ottermask nodded gratefully to Icepath. "We can start where I last saw everyone and go from there." He remembered where Ashfaith had been, the young tom had practically died in his paws.

“I’m ready when you both are...” Ospreystrike murmured lightly, the fire that usually sparked in her eyes now smoldered into a weak and dull gleam. Her claws worked at the smoky grass below her, heart racing at the thought of seeing Rosefrost. She needed to be brave though.
“Jaggedclaw.” Diamondheart noticed the other young tom padding near them. The reserved Warrior looked at the deputy as he continued. “Can you lend them a paw in recovering our clanmates?”
“Yes.” He nodded, looking over at Ottermask, Icepath and Ospreystrike with an unreadable expression. “I’ll assist them. I’ve got plenty of room on my back to carry anyone...”
Diamondheart nodded his relief, looking back at Earthstar as he mewed. “Troutfang could lead a patrol for material gathering, and I can start getting the nursery rebuilt with some of the other warriors.” He offered.
“...I am not sure why the fire started, but I can only assume it was something out of our control.” Smogstorm answered her son honestly, not one to make things up when she explained it.
“Oh yikes...Well, it’s not too bad in camp. Your den looks pretty good too, so that’s a big relief!” Swanpaw exclaimed as they entered camp.

Kingpaw nodded at her words. "What about your den though? Everyone's gonna need some rest after all of this." If the apprentices den was really bad off then Kingpaw would invite her to stay with him in the medicine cat den for now. He missed having her beside him, their nests against each others as they slept. That all stopped when he moved to the medicine cat den.
