“Oh uh not too bad.” Birchstep looked at his leader. “He’s pretty willing to learn, even if he does have a sharp tongue.” He said, trying to be light about it.

Swiftstar narrowed his eyes. "I need you to be honest with me Birchstep. If Dashclaw isn't progressing like he should, I need to know."
Frostpetal nuzzled her mate. "I'll be okay, I promise. I'm just glad you're alright."
Stormfury nodded. "I hope so. He looked pretty wounded when we left." He shuddered, imagining the pain the leader must be in.
Silverspirit smiled sadly. "It sure feels like it, doesn't it?" she turned to face him, an idea forming in her mind. "StarClan doesn't have to know." she murmured. "I can't lose you Eclipsesky, and I can't lose what we have....so why does anyone have to know?"

Thistlestalk flicked his tail as he pictured Cedarstar on the ground, Closesky and Starrylight hovering over him nervously. "Cloudscar may have to take over for a while, Cedarstar does need time to heal. Cedarstar seems like he'd be pretty stubborn about it though, no matter how bad his burns are."
Eclipsesky tilted his head in confusion "What do you mean Silverspirit? Starclan sees everything. I go speak with them every moon, do you know how disappointed Berrywatcher would be?"

Birchstep shifted on his paws awkwardly. He didn’t want to lie to Swiftstar but he didn’t want to throw Dashclaw under the bus. “It’s.. slow.” He admitted finally. “He’s better than when we began but.. he’s not meant to be a tunneler.” He spoke softly.

Stormfury snorted "If Cedarstar's anything, he's stubborn. ShadowClan may be better off for it, but I can't imagine being him."
Silverspirit shrugged. "Starclan was silent with my parents, why would they speak now?" she asked quietly
Swiftstar nodded. "Thank you, that's all I needed to know." he said, flicking his tail "I appreciate all the effort you have put into training him, but I think it's time we consider moving him out of the tunnels and back to the moor."

"It was frightening out there." Harewhisker sighed in admission. "The fire was everywhere. I could the tunnels collapsing in my paws, but I didn't tell Dashclaw or Swiftstar because I didn't want to worry them, but..." He shook his head. "I'm afraid to see what the territory will be like when we go back."

Birchstep nodded his head. “You’re welcome Swiftstar.” He spoke before adding. “I don’t think he’s going to like you sending him back to the moor. He seems pretty determined.”

Thistlestalk shook his head "I used to be envious of Cedarstar when he became deputy, but I was barely a warrior then. I can't imagine being in his paws now."
Eclipsesky wriggled nervously, his thoughts going a mile a minute "Your parents didn't have any contact with Starclan, I do."

Frostpetal nodded. "I'm thankful for Highstones, but I'm scared to see camp....I don't think there'll be anything left...it's going to be a lot of work." she sighed, felling bad that she wouldn't be able to help much once they moved.

"Especially in the tunnels." Harewhisker sighed heavily. "And we just got the ones by RiverClan connected...we'll have to start all over."

(Hiya Jules! :3)
Thorndash prepared to join Ashsong for her hunting patrol, his paws heavy with grief at the loss of his sister. He hoped Nettlefrost had at least gone quickly, as painlessly as possible. He took in a shaky breath and exhaled, continuing forwards. Tinyflower bounced quickly to their side, the sharp white she-cat looking determined to help catch prey.
Blacktail awaited for more tunnelers to gather, nodding as Siltpath and Splashstone padded towards him, thinking of the closest and safest tunnels they could peer down into.

Jasmineheart followed after Splashstone like a lost kit, not wanting to be separated from her brother. If he was going out, so was she.

Pigeonsong was still in a state of shock the fire having advanced so quickly. Her ears were flat against her skull the she cat let out a shuddering breath looking at her clan mates. She needed to do something in order to help but she was still uncertain the smell of smoke was all she could smell. Shuddering she let out a cough.

"Jasmineheart…" Splashstone murmured after a while, his ears flattened a bit. "Look, I...I'm sorry, about earlier, I...I shouldn't let such thoughts claw all over yours, I just..." He swallowed, not sure if he could describe how he was feeling. "I want to do what's best, and what's right, protect Windclan, and you and everyone else but..." He trailed off, sighing deeply.

Sandfall padded over to Pigeonsong, "You look like you could use a distraction. Do you want to go hunting with me? I want to try and bring something back for my sister and her kits."
Jasmineheart shook her head slowly, giving Splashstone a sad smile "Apology accepted." she nudged against him "I already said this but I can't lose you. I'm not going to let one fight get in between us."

Pigeonsong nodded her head, “Yes please.... anything,” she spoke her voice was low as she looked at the she cat. She needed something to do. A distraction would be quite useful right now.

Jasmineheart shook her head slowly, giving Splashstone a sad smile "Apology accepted." she nudged against him "I already said this but I can't lose you. I'm not going to let one fight get in between us." Splashstone seemed to accept his sister's words, though he did not admit the deep part of himself that still felt as if he did not belong here, or anywhere. Training in his dreams had made him a better fighter...and yet, he could not fight the fires. He could not fight the part of himself that wondered if he'd be better suited for the waters and rivers than he would be for the tunnels and moors. He shook his head lightly, not wanting to make himself upset again. Instead, he nodded quietly to his sister. "You won't lose me...let's go see if we can bring anything back."

lol Sandfall is a tom)
"Great, let's go then." Sandfall mewed before leading the way away from highstones and away from the fire. He scented the air, grumbling when all he could smell was soot and smoke "This may be harder than I thought."
Jasmineheart nodded, determination filling her eyes as she padded after her brother. She refused to fail Windclan now.

(Oops I’m sorry) Pigeonsong followed after him letting out a small breath trying to clear her nose to scent for prey. Letting out a shaky breath frowning looking at him then up at the sky her tail tip twitching. She sighed they might not find anything.

it's okay :3 )
Sandfall shook out his pelt as he continued to walk, glad to see at least some foliage had been spared from the fire, at least for now. His eyes darted side to side, looking for any signs of movement in the brush.

Pigeonsong frowned as she looked around her ears twitching. Her gaze clouded over a bit she was struggling as she let out a small breath. She desperately wanted the smell of smoke to leave her.

“I can’t get the smell of smoke out of my nose.... I smell it everywhere,” Pigeonsong shuddered slightly frownig raising a paw to her muzzle to rub at it frowning.

Sandfall nodded sympathetically, "I know what you mean. I can't smell any signs of prey anywhere... just smoke." the tom hummed in thought as he tried to come up with a solution. "Perhaps we should look for a water source. We could try and rid ourselves of the smoke scent and bring fresh moss water back for the queens, elders and kits!"

“Sure that would be a good idea,” Pigeonsong nodded her head why didn’t she think of that? The she cat let out a small breath walking beside him, “This is just awful,” she whispered.

Sandfall glanced over at her before continuing on their journey. He had never been here, born after the times of Adderclan. He had no idea where a creek or spring could be. “Yeah.. it is.” he answered, trying not to let his mind flicker back to the death of his mother. He needed to focus on Sagefoot and her kits. “A lot of good cats died and were injured. The Shadowclan patrol saved us.”

“We could have lost so many... the fire raged so quickly.... ,” Pigeonsong shuddered as they walked for the stream. She shook her head, “I don’t even want to think about it.... How are you holding up?” She asked him softly.
