(Night Vixen!) Whorlkit tilted her head. "Then why didn't you feel me coming?" "Catmint and borage." Ashrock paused to look around the territory. "They should be around here somewhere, but I think the catmint might have gotten shredded in the fight." He snorted. "Frog-brained rogues." “I was feeling something else first.” Rustlekit answered, scampering around as she stopped and looked towards the sounds of the other playing kits. “I guess you just took me by surprise.” She giggled.

"Well, you should always be prepared for anything!" Whorlkit crouched playfully again. "At least that's what father always says!"

"At least that's what father always says!" “That’s what mother says too.” Rustlekit mewed. “I’m trying super hard...but It’s hard to know where everyone is. You gotta be real happy, yeah? Your father’s leader of the whole clan!”

Whorlkit flicked her ear and shrugged, standing up from her crouch. "Yeah, I suppose, but father didn't look so happy when he left. Mother says Northstar has gone to StarClan now. I don't think father likes that so much. He seems..." She shrugged lightly, almost sounding down. "different now."

"Well hopefully we can find some intact pieces then." Stonesong spoke. "But I'm not sure what those herbs look like really."

I don't think father likes that so much. He seems..." She shrugged lightly, almost sounding down. "different now." “Northstar felt cold.” Rustlekit mewed quietly. “She felt like fur and snow. She was ready to be in the stars, I think. That’s gotta mean your father’s gotta be ready to be the leader.”

"Just look for crushed leafs on the ground." Ashrock shrugged with a flick of his ear. "I'll see if I can find the borage and we'll head back to camp. I just hope I don't grab tree leafs again."
Whorlkit shrugged. "I suppose. Mother took Palekit and I to stay goodbye to Northstar while father left the camp." Her ears fell back in sadness. "Ever since he became deputy, he hasn't been around as much. Palekit says we should be proud that father's deputy and now leader, but...I miss him."

Rustlekit couldn’t look directly at Whorlkit, but she could reach a paw out and nudge the older kit with a deep kindness. “I bet you’ll see him all the time again soon. You’re gonna be an apprentice, and you can train and spend time with anyone in the clan.”

Whorlkit smiled in soft gratitude for the younger kits words. "Thanks, Rustlekit. I hope I make him proud."

Stonesong nodded as they reached the spot of the battle. She began to look around for the herbs, trying to catch the scent of them.

Northstar has been the leader of Shadowclan for literal years, since like 2011 at least)

(Actually, Northstar became leader at the start of 2012. 2011 is when I poofed from the forums for about six months and Moonstar died.

(( oh goodness... ))
Yarrowbloom's ears were pinned pack with sadness as she trudged through the snow. Her heart felt like it had dropped into her stomach since Cedarstar's passing, and with the leafbare season things only seemed much bleaker. She was lucky enough to have found a finch sheltered in an evergreen bush, and a young squirrel that was dumb enough to stray from its nest. In this weather, any fresh-kill was greatly appreciated, no matter its size. Slipping into camp, she padded to the fresh kill, glancing at Cinderspeck on her way there. He looked sad and hungry. Frowning, she picked the finch back up and approached him with it. "You look like you could use a bite," she frowned, dropping it at his paws. "It looks like everyone could."
Sproutpaw sulked by the entrance to the apprentices' den, watching the flakes fall slowly from the sky. He noticed Tumblepaw slowly becoming blanketed with snow, and thought it odd that the tom didn't flick a whisker. He padded up to his denmate, slightly concerned. "Hey..." he muttered. "Are you...doing OK?"

(I'm able to RP throughout today, but I'll be poofy.)
Dustrose sat alone in camp, tail wrapped tightly around her paws and a dull look in her eyes. She was taking Northstar's death worse then she expected, not any worse then most of the other cats, but she guessed that's how it was when you actually cared about a cat. Northstar really was the only individual Dustrose had liked, she never really liked any of the other clan members, but she respected them greatly. She had always been awed by Northstar ever since the leader had accepted her into the clan all those moons ago.
Cloudflight sighed as she groomed little specks of mud from her pelt. She was glad for the snow that had come, she already was improving with her hunting.
Sunpaw was practicing battle moves alone by the apprentice den, already recovered from the shock of Northstar's death.

Cardinalblaze padded quietly towards Cloudflight, his eyes both caring and conflicted. He mewed to her. “Hey...After all that’s happened, I’m glad you’re always the most constant aspect. I just want you to know that I really do love you.” He mewed softly.

“Of course.” Honeypaw stood primly on his paws, eyes flashing with confidence. “I practice as much as I can. A warrior is only as good as the work he puts in, after all.” He decided smoothly, looking at Oakstalk. “What next?”

Cloudflight smiled at Cardinalblaze. "I never doubted it, not for one second," she replied softly. "You know, with everything that happened to my family before I became a warrior, I don't know were I'd be without you. I was a wreck before I first became friends with you, and now I feel like the luckiest cat alive." She purred. "I love you more then anything."

Cardinalblaze felt his heart flutter with gratitude and affection. It felt immensely good, to know he made her feel such a way. In all his internal conflicts, all the family stresses and secrets, it was always Cloudflight hat grounded him. He moved to press close to her, blue eyes gazing upon her as he mewed. "Oh Cloudflight...you make me feel the same way. No cat is a closer friend to me than you, and no cat makes me feel like you do. You deserve so much." He purred. "And congratulations, on getting an apprentice!"

(I realize my announcement for the news is very blunt and bold, but I worked really hard on the page and would appreciate if people at least glanced at it.)
Tumblepaw glanced over at Sproutpaw, but again his gaze flicked from the warrior's den to the leader's den and back again. "I...I don't know." He shifted in hesitation, a rare thing for him to have. "Northstar was the one who welcomed me into the Clan...what if Cedarstar kicks me back out again?"

Closesky laid in his nest within the elder's den, his pelt was still very muddy from when he had buried Northstar. He didn't look up at anyone, but rather tucked himself up and stared at the wall.
Ratmask was keeping himself busy by fortifying the elder's den with more brambles and sticks. His hair-less body shivered violently in the cold.
Littlemoon was waiting for Cloudscar to send out patrols.
Cedarstar shivered within his nest in the leader's den. His ears were pinned back and sleep had evaded him all night. He had fetched his moss for his nest after speaking with Cloudscar yesterday. As honored as he should've been that the leader's den was now his, all he felt was lonely. Northstar's scent still lingered in the air and it tensed him with worry that he wouldn't measure up to the great leader. He missed the company of other cats, the tight warmth of the warrior's den, and being surrounded by clanmates. Cedarstar flattened his ears, looking around the cold den once again. How did Northstar live like this for nine lives? He couldn't recall a time she had anyone share her den with her. Cedarstar flicked his tail and got up to leave the leave the den, his fur a bit ruffled from the pressure it put on him. He wasn't looking forward to return to it for another night.

Leaffrost pulled herself to her paws, trailing out of the elder's den for a moment to gaze upon her mate. She approached his side, watching him work as she pushed away another strange cramp in her belly. Perhaps the kits were just kicking. Either way, she spoke almost distractedly, still not alright from Northstar's death. "You look so cold, love...don't stay out here for too long." She giggled.
Raggedthorn couldn't get comfortable in his nest, but he did not stand to fix himself. He was tired, all the time. He wondered if Starclan had blessed him or cursed him, to have lived this long. He eyed Closesky, blurry old eyes drooping with sympathy.

"I-it's c-cold i-inside t-t-t-oo." Ratmask flattened her ears at her. He sat back, sitting tight for every lick of warmth he could get. "I-I'm just t-tr-trying to m-make i-i-it better."
Closesky didn't move.

"Inside I can curl up around you." Leaffrost reminded with a patience only she knew, and she lifted her eyes to inspect the elder's den. She tried to reach on her hind legs to help him a bit, though the weight of her belly made it a bit hard. "At least let me help you." She offered.
"You did everything just right." Raggedthorn wheezed to the younger elder, legs trembling in the cold and with age. "Nobody in the clan loved her as deeply as you did. I suppose the perks...of being an elder, is that we don't have to wait too long to see them again...I hope."

"I-Inside, where a-all I do is l-la-lay around and e-e-eat up p-prey I d-d-didn't earn?" Ratmask snorted and shook his head. "I-I haven't e-even tr-train L-Lilypaw in t-t-two days. I-I will no-not be a-alone with m-m-my thoughts."
Closesky didn't give any indication that he heard the older tom, he just stared at the wall of the elder's den.

Isn’t that what I do right now?” Leaffrost rolled her eyes playfully. She looked at him and mused. “You won’t be training anyone if you freeze to death in the snow.” She brushed her side to his, providing some warmth. Secretly, she hoped he would be able to feel the little kicks of their kits.

Ratmask frowned at her, but didn't move from her warmth, he couldn't even feel his paws he was so cold. "You're a queen, that's all you're supposed to do."

"You're a queen, that's all you're supposed to do." “I’m a warrior.” Leaffrost added in smoothly. Her blue eyes sparkled with humor as she mewed. “Even queens can help out. Besides...Closesky is very sad, and I don’t know how to empathize I guess.”

"Sproutpaw's doing pretty good, he's a quick learner," she said proudly. "But he does have a bit of a temperament."
