Breezefoot moves over towards Dashclaw. Since when was he a motor runner again? He shook his head but stopped once he was at the tom.

Dashclaw still laid in his little cave outcropping, having completely ignored the Clan meeting.

Sunstep nodded to Stonepath. "Alright." he said. "We might not be able to tell some of the tunnels are damaged until much further in. I'm sure lots of prey tried to muscle their way through them for safety."
Fawnspots beamed at her brother before turning to look for Dashclaw. "Where in StarClan is Dashclaw?" she muttered. "Isn't he supposed to be leading this patrol? And isn't he a tunneler now?" The thought only occurred to her after she started speaking.
Stormfury shrugged. "I suppose it wouldn't hurt to at least try and get home." he agreed. There wasn't much left for him here now, not with Swallowfeather gone and Eclipsesky...he was doing more harm than good to the poor medicine cat.

“Dashclaw time to go on the patrol.” Breezefoot looked at the (younger?) warrior. He flicked his tail, notching his moping.

“Then we’ll take it tunnel by tunnel.” Stonepath nodded to Sunstep, relieved to see that he seemed steady, even with the passing of Rainfeather. They had been raised by the same she-cat, after all. Stonepath turned and nodded. “Let’s get moving then.”

(Yeah, Dashclaw is younger)
Dashclaw glanced up at Breezefoot, but didn't really move. His voice was hardened. "What?"

“You’re leading a patrol of mood runners.” Breezefoot explained again to the tom. “We’re you even listening to Swiftstar?”

"Not particularly." Dashclaw replied bitterly.

Sunstep nodded, following after Stonepath. "How are you holding up?" he asked quietly, not wanting to pressure his foster brother to speak if he didn't want to.
Fawnspots bounded over to Dashclaw and Breezefoot. "Dashclaw let's go! We have to go check on the camp." she said cheerfully. She had no idea what was going on with the tom.

“...I am struck, by how sudden it happened, but I also know that I have the rest of the clan to watch over. Rainfeather would have never wanted to see us suffer...At the very least, I know she did not go alone.” Stonepath admitted in a rare moment of openness, as he looked at Sunstep. “She missed Beetleclaw, and her father. I know she will see them again.”

Breezefoot rolled his eyes. “Get up.” He grumbled back. “And you should listen to your leader.” He gave him a warning.

Dashclaw rolled his eyes. He started to get up. "Because the leader's word is law, isn't it? Fine, where is this rabbit-dunged patrol going?"

Soulspirit moves over to the medicine cats, ready to help.
Crowfrost stood with his patrol.
Poppyflame nodded in agreement, “I’m ready to head back home.” She said, looking at the others.

Wolfstep gave Dashclaw a deep frown, how could Dashclaw talk abou his father like that right in front of him and his sister! he flicked his ears in annoyance, wishing Hazelear was going on the patrol instead.

Thistlestalk purred softly “Alright we should go thank Swiftstar and then we can head out.” He mewed, leading the others towards the Windclan leader.
Eclipsesky dipped his head to the warriors as they approached. “I’m not sure we’ll fine much but let’s go. The clan definitely needs a better stock.”

“Shouldn’t be too hard.” Tinyflower mewed with confidence and strength in her voice. “It’s not like herbs will run away like rabbits do. Tell me what to scent for, and I’ll find it.”

Breezefoot narrowed his eyes. “We’re checking through moors to see if the fire is out.” He spoke before adding. “You should show some respect to Swiftstar.”

"Respect the cat who has taken away the only thing I ever wanted?" Dashclaw shot Breezefoot a bitter look, almost warming the older warrior to drop the topic. "Right." He looked away and started toward the entrance of the Highstones camp.

Wolfstep held his tongue, not wanting to disrespect the older warrior. He followed after him silently, sending a confused glance to Fawnspots.

“You’re not meant to be a tunneler Dashclaw.” Breezefoot shot back at him. “And in this dangerous time the clan comes before your own desires.”

"My entire family had been tunnelers!" Dashclaw hissed through clenched teeth. "I should be one too!"

“And? You’re a moor runner.” Breezefoot looked at him. “You’re one of the fastest cats in the clan and you a smart rabbit hunter.” He spoke. “You know the moor like the back of your paw. That’s where you belong. You don’t have to follow in the footsteps of your family.”

Wolfstep looked at Dashclaw, his anger turning into sorrow for the older warrior. “Dashclaw, you know you’re good at being a moor runner. Why does it matter if that’s what your family does? It’s not what you do.”

Dashclaw scoffed and looking away from them, wishing they would drop the subject. "Tunneling is the only thing my family is proud of."

Fawnspots padded over to Dashclaw and gave him a friendly nudge "Well I'm proud to go on this patrol with you" she said cheerfully, hoping her mood would lift the tom's spirits.

Sandfall watched the patrols go frowning slightly, he wanted to help to, but he knew there were other jobs for him to do here. Perhaps he should go get more water soaked moss for the clan.
Eclipsesky led his apprentice and the two warriors away from highstones back towards their territory. "We'll take any herbs we can find, but the ones that are most important right now are coltsfoot, ginger, horsetail and honey."
Thistlestalk led Stormfury and Poppyflame over to Swiftstar, dipping his head. "Thank you for allowing us to stay here with you. I believe the territory is safe enough for us to return to our own clan though so we will be on our way."
Goldheart sat by himself in a little overhang, watching the patrols go silently.

Breezefoot just rolled his eyes at the warrior. “You’re being selfish. That’s not true now come on.”
Dawnshadow followed after her mentor. “Do you know where to find them outside the territory?”

Crowfrost waited for the rest of the patrol impatiently, his tail tapping the ground in annoyance with Dashclaw’s bickering.
Poppyflame followed after Thistlestalk, ready to go home.
Soulspirit followed after the medicine cats quietly.

Thistlestalk led Stormfury and Poppyflame over to Swiftstar, dipping his head. "Thank you for allowing us to stay here with you. I believe the territory is safe enough for us to return to our own clan though so we will be on our way." Stormfury padded silently behind Thistlestalk, his eyes narrowing only slightly as they approached the leader, but his tail flicked restlessly behind him. He didn't want to spend any more time near Swiftstar than he had to. He did not dip his head when Thistlestalk did. Swiftstar didn't deserve it. Swiftstar nodded to the ShadowClan patrol leader. "Of course. WindClan owes you a lot for risking your lives to help us. Please send our gratitude to Cedarstar, and if we can be of assistance while you rebuild we will do what we can." he flicked his tail "May StarClan guide your pawsteps on your journey home."
