If Moonpower has accepted your character already, you should be able to rp now, Tansy ^.^ We’ve all been pretty busy lately, so it might be a little bit before Moon is able to add your character to the front page)

”At this point, I believe it will be up to him if he wakes up or not.” Snowdance said, turning her gaze away from her patient to look at Spiderbite. Cliffheart’s coma did have her concerned, especially now that his injuries had started to heal. “With the state that he is now, I’m afraid that he isn’t strong enough to make the trip back to the SkyClan camp with you.” Spiderbite frowned and he kneaded his paws in betrayal of his anxiousness. "He has to wake up. He has to come back. Lavendersky is dying. He's the one cat she wants to see before she goes to StarClan." Spiderbite paced around Cliffheart, looking over his injuries as if he might have missed what was causing the older warrior to be unconscious. "Come on," he hissed through gritted teeth. "There has to be an explanation." When he continued to see nothing that indicated Cliffheart's unconsciousness, Spiderbite suddenly shoved the tom. "Wake up, bird-brain, your sister needs you!" Cedarstar stood up. Spiderbite's shove was harmless. It only moved Cliffheart's shoulder, but Cedarstar felt defensive just the same. "Spiderbite," he mewed in stern warning. Spiderbite snorted and didn't even look back at Cedarstar. "Maybe...it's a mental thing?" He perked up. "Yeah, that's the next conclusion Lavendersky would come to. Maybe he doesn't want to wake up?" He suddenly flattened his ears as another thought entered his mind, a paranoia that was creeping through SkyClan currently. "He..." Spiderbite glanced at Snowdance. "He doesn't walk the Dark Forest, does he?" Cedarstar's pelt bristled. "Cliffheart overcame the Dark Forest, don't accuse him of treading there." Snowdance gave a small shake of her head, “As Cedarstar has said, Cliffheart has long turned his back on the Dark Forest. But I do believe that you’re right about this being a mental thing.” She said, trying to ease the tension between her leader and the SkyClan medicine cat. “Although, shoving him like that won’t do any good, so I’ll have to ask you to not do that again, Spiderbite.” Snowdance added with a bit more sternness in her voice. She turned her head to look at Spiderfang when she made her way into the medicine den. “I can finish up here with Spiderbite if you would like to see to the patrol, Cedarstar.”

Scorpion'paw sat in the clearing grooming herself while waiting for instructions from her mentor.

((sorry for the big poof, just gonna reset my characters))
Fuzzypaw looked up, her stomach clenching when she spotted the search patrol with Stormfury's body in tow. She slunk around the edge of the clearing to press close to Spottedpaw and Rustlepaw, a whimper trapped behind her teeth.
Oakfall paused in his den-building and clenched his jaw against the grief that welled up when he saw his Clanmate dead.
Featherkit was leaned sleepily against Hazelblaze, but perked up at the unnatural quiet that seemed to blanket the camp outside the nursery.

Scorpionpaw looked up, though she hadn't known Stormfury much. Still, she had respected him. She sat silently at the edge of the camp watching the cats, her tail flicking.

Able to scent the smell of death, and judging by the reactions of her clanmates, Rustlepaw could only droop with a sad understanding. They had found Stormfury, yet the tom was clearly not brought back alive. She heard Fuzzypaw’s whimper, and turned to face her direction as she murmured softly. “I hoped he would be alive…”
Waspflame gave a heavy breath of mourning, though raw anger blazed in the young Warrior’s eyes. How many more Clanmates would they lose? Stormfury’s death shouldn’t have happened. He had kits, and now they had no father! Feeling a familiar ache in his chest, he hated knowing the kits wouldn’t get to grow up with him there, just as he wouldn’t get to see Viperpool anymore.

"Me too," Fuzzypaw whispered miserably, pressing her nose against Rustlepaw's shoulder.
Oakfall touched his tail to Waspflame's. "It never gets easier," he murmured.

Scorpionpaw stood up from her spot and dipped her head in one last bit of respect to the fallen warrior, then walked back to the apprentice den.

“Poor Whorlpaw. And Cherryvine. Starclan, poor Cherryvine…” Rustlepaw mourned, her voice rasped as she thought about how much this must have destroyed the Queen. She brushed close to Fuzzypaw. “Is it selfish of me to say that in times like this, my blindness is a gift? So I don’t… so I can’t see him…”
“It shouldn’t be this in the first place! It shouldn’t get to that point!” Waspflame hissed, before he felt his anger break away once he remembered that it was Oakfall comforting him. He let his fur lie flat, eyes averting. “Sorry. I’m not angry at you, just…”
“Scorpionpaw?” Lightpaw mewed lightly from inside the den, her yellow eyes round with sadness. “Is it true? Stormfury is… he’s gone?”

"Y-... Yes it is. I think it was the flood but I'm not sure... A lot of things could have happened but if so... Then Starclan was merciful... I just don't get why they'd let this happen."She said quietly almost a growl.

I just don't get why they'd let this happen."She said quietly almost a growl. “With a death like that, I don’t know why Starclan would let that happen either…” Lightpaw mumbled softly, before she quickly shook her head and resolved herself. “There’s gotta be a reason. Starclan isn’t cruel, maybe… maybe they just couldn’t stop it.”

"Yeah, Starclan can't stop everything... Maybe if we'd have found him faster? Anyway, I'm going to the den for the night. Sleep well." She said her tail disappearing into the dark den

“Good-night, Scorpionpaw.” Lightpaw mewed with a kind hum, before she curled up in her own nest, eyes drooped with worry for Raccoonmask. Her mentor was still recovering, and she knew that Raccoonmask must have felt to blame for Stormfury’s death. They had been on the patrol together when water had swept Stormfury away.

Stormfury is… he’s gone?” Fuzzypaw was quiet, absently lapping at the top of Rustlepaw's head. She wasn't even sure what she could say, at a time like this, but she tried anyway. "I know I didn't know him as long as others in the Clan, but I'll miss him." "It's okay," Oakfall said softly. This was Waspflame - he knew under his rough edges, the tom was kind and just. "It just feel so pointless, sometimes." Being brave, Oakfall bumped his chin against the top of Waspflame's head in a gesture of comfort.

“My older sister cared about him alot. Back when Stormfury first joined Shadowclan, Leaffrost and Ratmask both grew close to him. I can’t imagine how Ratmask is taking it. Moonpetal and Stormfury are both gone now. It must feel like a punishment, I imagine.” Rustlepaw mewed honestly, her cloudy eyes staring forwards as she kept close to her friend. She flexed her claws into the ground. “I want to help Cedarstar as much as I can with these rotten prey-maulers.”
Waspflame’s eyes widened slightly at the other tom’s comfort, not used to this kind of notion. Rather, he surprisingly felt himself relaxing into Oakfall’s embrace, sighing lightly as he mumbled. “It’s only pointless if we lose track of the point, right?”

Cedarstar opened his mouth to respond to Snowdance, but the grimness in Spiderfang's eyes told him everything he needed to know about the results of the patrol. He let out a heavy sigh and nodded to Snowdance and Spiderbite. Cedarstar licked Starrylight's cheek and pressed his nose to Palepaw's shoulder before he got up and solemnly padded out of the den.
Seeing Stormfury's body made him feel colder than leaf-bare, but seeing the look on his daughter's face broke his heart. Cedarstar almost didn't want to go out there. If he didn't acknowledge Stormfury was dead, could it be true? How foolish, he silently sighed. Cedarstar lifted his head and walked toward the patrol. His ears fell back the closer he came to Stormfury. This was the cat that supported his deputyship when Ashrock tried to discredit him. The cat he had no faith in when he arrived at the Clan, but proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he could be ShadowClan, that he belonged here.
Cedarstar pressed his nose to Stormfury's matted, wet fur. He looked up to Cardinalblaze, Whorlpaw, and Cherryvine. "Thank you for finding him." His scarred face softened on Cherryvine. He couldn't imagine what she was going through. The thought of losing Starrylight was unimaginable. "I'm so sorry, Cherryvine."
Whorlpaw stood up when her father came out of the medicine den. She wanted to run to him, but she managed to keep in place. Whorlpaw glanced from her dead mentor to Cardinalblaze, Cherryvine, and her father with her paws kneading into the mud.
Spiderbite watched Cedarstar leave the den with a knit in his brow. He didn't need to see to know what Spiderfang's tone meant. Someone was dead. That seems to be going around, Spiderbite sighed. He turned away from the den entrance. What was happening in ShadowClan wasn't his problem. "I need to get you to SkyClan," he muttered to himself. He puzzled at Cliffheart and despite what Snowdance said, he pawed the tom's face to see if he could get him to open his eye. "What will it take to wake you up?" Spiderbite flicked his tail and looked around as if that would help him. He looked at Snowdance. "What's been effecting him mentally lately? He's gotta be avoiding something."

“Change of plans.” Brittlefoot murmured lightly. “We’ll sit vigil. I’ll take you out tomorrow for some hunting. I have a feeling that alot of the Clan will be struck hard by this.” He blinked, inwardly hoping Longpaw would never have to see him dead, to have to ever one day help find his body like Whorlpaw had to for Stormfury. Cardinalblaze gave Cherryvine space to move Stormfury, his eyes trailing to Littlemoon as the she-cat silently offered her assistance. The deputy gave a heavy yet appreciative look, stepping aside to speak to her. “I know it might be best to have hope with things like this, but…” He trailed off with a light breath. It was clear the deputy was exhausted, physically and emotionally, though he kept his voice steady and soft. “I’ll have to report everything. And I know everyone’s going to ask about it. I guess I’m glad we at least could find him, even if he’s with Starclan now.” Honeycrest gazed at Whorlpaw once more, before he mutely looked down at Stormfury. He eyed the nursery with a small sigh, knowing thw worst part was to come, when the kits realized their father was gone. “Cedarstar.” Spiderfang mewed bluntly as she pushed her way into the medicine den. She paused as she saw them gathered around Cliffheart, her orange eyes burning with grim disdain as she cleared her throat. “The patrol has returned…” Longpaw glanced at his mentor, but his kept getting stolen back to Stormfury and the others. The moment Cedarstar walked out of the medicine den, Longpaw flinched low as if to not be seen. Littlemoon nodded with quiet expression. "You did all you could," she mewed kindly. "If you report to Cedarstar, he could make an announcement. Then, you won't have to repeat the story every time." She trailed her gaze over to Stormfury's body. "Though, I think we all know what happened."

Cardinalblaze offered Littlemoon a small smile of gratitude, though his next words were cut short by the approach of Cedarstar. He politely promised to continue their talk, before he padded a few steps towards his leader. The deputy nodded slowly, his voice heavy yet as steady as he could manage.
“We followed the direction of the water flow, where it would go. He was out on the farther end of the territory, near the lower lands.” Out of respect for Cherryvine, he didn’t go into detail. Rather, he murmured softly. “He was a brave Warrior. We’ll be able to give him a vigil he deserves.”
Spiderfang slipped out from the den behind Cedarstar, but opted to make her way towards the rest of the gathering Clan. Her eyes were sharp with understanding as she realized she couldn’t see Leaffrost or Ratmask. Likely, they were together in one of the dens, away from everyone else.
Brittlefoot flicked an ear as he saw Cedarstar approaching the patrol. Feeling downtrodden, the frail tom finished the last section of the den before he rasped. “We’ll have to prepare the vigil. Don’t feel like you need to stay up all night, though. The dens should be fine for now.” He decided, letting the apprentice go.

Scorpionpaw woke not able to sleep, the only dreams she had were nightmares about Stormfurys death. She stood wobbling her paws dragged with worry for her clanmates. It felt as if a rock had fallen into her stomach noticing she hadn't even slept through the night. "Oh mouse bones!" She hissed quietly realizing she was not dreaming.

(hi everyone! new to the rp this is for anyone) It had been chilly all day and Blossompaw was not happy. Greenleaf, for all the challenges it brought, had been at least warm and inviting. Blossompaw could deal with the burning sun for more than she could the creeping chill that seemed to dig deeper and deeper each passing dawn. Even now, with half the day done and she finally getting to shut her eyes for more than a few heartbeats, the air carried and sharpness than could really only mean one thing. And that one thing was going to be harder to avoid, especially as her apprenticeship drew to a close. Grumbling about being cursed with short fur, the small white cat shuffled her way out of the den, shaking the last bits of sleep from her eyes. Maybe if she did some more work, it would be far easier to fall asleep later no matter how cold it got...

"Morning" Scorpionpaw said trotting by Blossompaw "Have you seen Pinefeather around?" She asked her tail swished anxiously. Blossompaw blinked and flattened her ears in surprise. She had not expected another cat to meet her so quickly. "No, I havent" she replied eyeing the other apprentice beadily. "Maybe she went on a patrol. Have you checked the warrior's den?"
