((Hi Jekyll! Sorry I poofed! I have a bunch of open charries if you want to start something)) Frostpetal followed her mate's gaze to Dashclaw. "I wonder what they're talking about." she murmured after seeing the leader over there as well and Dashfall's expression. "Did something happen while you were out there?" "It doesn't matter if you're in there alone or not." Swiftstar said, trying to keep calm, but he could feel the snap in his words. "Dashclaw, you and I were just in a tunnel with Harewhisker, and we all almost died because your instincts were off. You don't have tunneler instincts, you have moor runner instincts. As soon as we got back above ground you were a totally different cat. You belong up there." "Dashclaw was trapped in the tunnel." Harewhisker flattened his ears when he looked at his brother. "He got separated from the patrol he was escaping with because he got turned around and he ended up getting trapped in a tunnel when it partly collapsed on him. If it weren't for Swiftstar and I, he would've died." Dashclaw blinked, taken aback by Swiftstar's words. Every bit of what his leader said was true, Dashclaw knew it. He was far more comfortable above ground than below it, but it was the suggestion behind Swiftstar's words that had him pausing. "What do you mean?" |

((hello everyone!))
Sunstep nodded as the deputy spoke, not quite able to shake the guilt from his pelt. "Weaselpaw certainly is energetic." he said with a laugh "She has more confidence than all of StarClan combined." His pelt fluffed slightly with praise as his former mentor praised him "I think I'm an alright mentor, but there certainly is room for improvement."

Thorndash was out on one of the hunting patrols, unable to sit still in that camp. He had to distract himself from the loss of his sister. He prayed to Starclan that she had not been in pain, when she had died, though he knew better in that she probably had been. He shook the miserable thoughts away, lifting his nose for any prey scents.
Meadowbrook silently monitored her burns, the sticky polituces making her huff lightly with aggravation. She hated the way it felt on her fur.

*throws rest of my characters*
Sagefoot groomed Larkkit's fur. The queen hoping they'd be able to return to camp soon.
Sandfall was snoozing in the shade, tired after bringing back all the watered moss for the queens.
Goldheart sat alone, his mind still whirling from Patchriver's sudden departure.
Eclipsesky watched over Stagpaw, trying to stay awake to monitor the young tom.
Wolfstep dropped into a hunter's crouch, glancing back at Hazelear and Birchstep before stalking forward towards the bird he had spotted.

Ashsong had gone out hunting as well. She scented the air for any prey and dropped down into a crouch, going after a mouse she spotted not too far away from her. Ashsong slowly started to creep forward, her eyes glinting as she watched the mouse.

His pelt fluffed slightly with praise as his former mentor praised him "I think I'm an alright mentor, but there certainly is room for improvement." "The fact that you say that shows me that you mean it. The best mentors and warriors are the ones who always believe that there is more to be done, for the sake of the ones we teach and care for. You just so happened to get a headstrong apprentice, though I can remind you that you were just as excitable when you were her age." Blacktail chuckled warmly, remembering the first few days with the tom as his apprentice. "Though, I'm sure Weaselpaw sees you in the same way she sees Stonepath, like kin." |

Ashsong slowly started to creep forward, her eyes glinting as she watched the mouse. Thorndash sighed softly as he gave up on tracking a scent. He did manage to see Ashsong slinking towards something though. He turned to watch her silently, not wanting to mess up a catch that could help feed their clan. Ashsong was a very skilled warrior, one that he had always enjoyed patrolling with. He had faith that she would catch it. |

Juniperkit looked up at Sagefoot, her eyes glowing with confusion and weariness. "Everyone looks so sad...when can we go back home?" She pleaded quietly, not liking how the stones felt, or how the sky was no longer above her head. Just dark and creepy rock. |

Frostpetal gasped at her mate's story. "StarClan! I'm glad you got there in time to help him." She looked back at her mate. "You're so brave! You could've died yourself!" she nuzzled him closer. "Dashclaw's lucky to have you."
Swiftstar wrapped his tail around his paws "What I mean Dashclaw, is you were born to be a moor runner. I would never ask a WindClan cat to go swim with RiverClan, or a ThunderClan cat to hunt at night with ShadowClan, because that's not where they belong, just like you don't belong underground. Once we got out of the tunnels your instincts were to get to highstones as fast as you could, which you did, leaving Harewhisker in the dust. But underground? You were a completely different cat. You were scared, reckless, you had no idea which way was up or what was the right thing to do. I can't force that life on you anymore, not when you deserve to be out on the moor."

Ashsong paused for a moment before pouncing on the mouse, killing it instantly. She sat up with a sigh, at least the queens and elder's wouldn't go hungry. She looked over and spotted Thorndash, picking up her mouse she padded over to him and dropped it on the ground, "Find anything?" she asked.

Harewhisker snorted and shook his head. "I can't believe he got himself turned around like that! No one knew what happened to him and if you hadn't convinced me to go find him, he would be dead! He has no place underground and I wish he would get that!" Dashclaw grit his teeth. "Swiftstar, being a tunneler is the life I'm choosing for myself. No one is forcing me to do it." |

Silverspirit padded over to Eclipsesky. She had been trying to stay away from the medicine cat after their awkward earlier encounter, but she couldn't seem to stay too far away. "You look tired, you should sleep" she said softly.
Sunstep shrugged. "Maybe she does, but that doesn't mean I'm going easy on her." he said with a chuckle. "She has talent, she'll make a great tunneler someday....if there are any tunnels left that is"

((I'm not sorry I will hog them forever xD ))
Frostpetal gave her mate a lick "I'm sure he's scared and embarrassed enough my love, you getting mad at him won't help make that any better."
Swiftstar flicked his tail. "And you are endangering the rest of my tunnelers by doing so." he said, growing frustrated. Whether the frustration was with himself or Dashclaw, he wasn't sure, but it was there, and growing. Between the fire, losing his daughter, losing a life, and almost losing another one, he felt exhausted.

Sagefoot sighed, looking down at Juniperkit with a sad smile, "I know this isn't what you're used to little one, but camp is not safe right now. We can't go home until Swiftstar tells us we can."
Eclipsesky shook his head firmly, unable to look Silverspirit in the eyes. "I have to watch over Stagpaw. He's in shock."

She looked over and spotted Thorndash, picking up her mouse she padded over to him and dropped it on the ground, "Find anything?" she asked. "I..." Thorndash wanted to be able to say that he did, anything to show that he could provide something for the clan, but the spiky furred tom could only sigh, shaking his head. "No, nothing really. I admit, I thought it would be easier out here, but I'm still not the best tracker in the clan..." He chuckled weakly, before he mewed. "Good catch, Ashsong. The clan will need all it can get." |

Birchstep moved away to allow room for the tom to hunt.
Hazelear crouched down as well, moving to stalk after him just in case she could help.

Silverspirit sighed. "And what happens when he wakes up and you're too exhausted to care for him?" she sat down next to him. "At least let me stay with you." she said softly

"She has talent, she'll make a great tunneler someday....if there are any tunnels left that is" "Good. Weaselpaw is not a cat that would ever want you to go easy on her, from what I can tell." Blacktail nodded firmly. He stood on his paws, promising. "We'll dig our tunnels back, good as new, as long as it takes. Cats like Weaselpaw will make that process smoother then. Make sure you check in with your siblings too. They will need you, in these times." |

Wolfstep signaled Hazelear to move to his right so they could corner it. Stalking slightly more to the left of the bird he approached it slowly, checking the ground for any undergrowth that could snap under his paws.
Eclipsesky grunted out an agreement, not letting his gaze leave Stagpaw. "I stayed up much longer while talking care of Sparrowwing. I'll do it again for Stagpaw if I have to. It's my duty."

Ashsong looked at her mouse and flicked her tail, "It's alright. Come on, I'll help you find something to catch. Maybe we can find some rabbits." she said, burying the mouse and scenting the air.

Hazelear moved to the right to circle around the bird. She tried to stay quiet, not wanting to step on a leaf.

"What if Swiftstar says we can never go back home?" Juniperkit pouted, looking a bit fearful. She could see her father guarding the camp entrance, though she still didn't want him to go outside. She looked back at her mother and sister and mewed. "I don't want to be a tunneler above the ground! I wanna dig into it!" |

Sagefoot shushed her daughter, running her tail across her back soothingly. "We'll be able to home before the next sunhigh hopefully dear, if not the next moonhigh. The fire won't last forever."
Wolfstep nodded when Hazelear was in position. Dashing forward towards the bird. At the sound of his paws, it fluttered straight towards Hazelear.

Sunstep nodded, shifting his paws uncertainly. "I feel like I can't." he admitted after an awkward pause. "They lost their mother...and I'm not....I'm not Rainfeather's kit." he said softly "Not really. I have family in ThunderClan, and I'll never know....I don't know if they're okay, and even if they aren't I can't do anything about it."
Silverspirit shrugged. "I know you will. You're a great medicine cat." she sighed, but sat near the tom. "WindClan is lucky to have you."

Hazelear leapt forward quickly, paws out stretched. She snagged the bird’s wing, dragging it to the ground and killing it quickly.
