(I can go)
Lightningstar chuckled. “Why would I do that? I’ve made plenty of mistakes and led Thunderclan into plenty of losing battles.” He spoke. “Losing is apart of life, that doesn’t mean you should be punished for it.”

Okie. Wanna send Russetfox? She’s your youngest warrior and it might make them look less intimidating with her instead of an older warrior.)

(I can go) Lightningstar chuckled. “Why would I do that? I’ve made plenty of mistakes and led Thunderclan into plenty of losing battles.” He spoke. “Losing is apart of life, that doesn’t mean you should be punished for it.” Frostmoon looked bewildered for a moment, before she swallowed and straightened herself again. "Well...you're very kind then, Lightningstar...but I do want to make up for my mistakes in any way I can. Even if it means doing extra chores or helping with other tasks. I promise that I'll get better." She swore. |

Peachdapple waited outside for Ghostscreech, her ears flicking as she looked towards her apprentice. "Aspenfall? I might be going out here soon with some Warriors. All I need you to do is be sure that the injuries are healed. Squirreltail's borage was divided earlier, and should be just enough. Make sure she gets that if I'm not back soon. We shouldn't be too long though. The rest, I trust you completely for any other issue. Use dried oak leaves around the camp instead of cobwebs for any extra bleeding as well." She explained.

Lightningstar just shook his head, amused at the young warrior. “I know you will.” He spoke. “Now go get some rest.” He told her. “Your wounds don’t look pleasant.”
(Sounds good to me)
Russetfox stood near Ghostscreech, shifting from paw to paw. What an honor! She got to go on a special medicine cat mission to Skyclan. She couldn’t wait to tell Silverfox all about it.

(Ooh, yeah let's do the ceremonies first since we're mostly all on for them rn)
Frostmoon quickly nodded to the leader, heart racing and mind filled with confusion as she slipped from the leader's den to stumble back into the clearing. Why had she not been in trouble? She felt a flicker of guilt, that even if she was a new Warrior, she still felt she should have done better. She looked for her mother or father instead, wanting to just be near them and try and work out why she was feeling all these stupid thoughts.

Lightningstar stood and padded from the den after her. He let out a small sigh before jumping up onto high rock. “Let’s all cats old enough to catch their own prey join beneath high rock for a clan meeting!”

Ghostscreech looked over at Russetfox, “We’ll leave after the meeting.” He said, joining the gathering clan.
Eclipsepaw left the apprentices den and joined the clan under the highrock.

Featherfoot watched with a chuckle of humor as both Drizzlekit and Flurrykit pushed eachother out of the nursery to curiously look up at Lightningstar. He hoped they would not have to traverse a Twolegplace anytime soon.
Hornetstrike looked up as he waved his tail for Frostmoon to join him at his side, nudging his daughter gently and warmly as she trotted to him and she sat with her head drooping and her eyes averting from Slatesight.
Midnightstream looked up from her spot beside Darktail, as Scarletpaw and Dawnpaw glanced up at the leader.

Lightninstar waited for everyone to gather before speaking. "As many of you have heard by now. Riverclan has taken control of sunningrocks." He spoke. "Frostmoon's border patrol encountered them. They were unfortunately outnumbered." He continued. "Due to the fire, we lack many important herbs. This means we cannot afford to go into battle right now to reclaim our territory. I had hoped the other clans would not take advantage of each other during this times but I was wrong." Lightninstar looked at his clan. "I can promise you however once we are at full strength and we have the herbs necessary to treat wounds we will claim our territory back."

Squirreltail curled her tail over her kits, worry in her eyes. “Will we have enough prey without Sunningrocks?” She mewed, not wanting her kits to starve.
Panthersight lashed his tail, “Those fishfaces.” He snarled, shaking his head, “Of course they would steal territory from us while we’re still recovering from the fire.”

"I don't know." Magpiewing replied once again, staying quiet for a moment. "I... I thought I could trust that Hornetstrike was my father, back before the secret came out... that I was a normal ThunderClan cat." she admitted. "Once I found out the truth, I felt destroyed. Even lonely, though my siblings felt just as lost and confused as me. I feel like I lost a lot of trust that day." She stopped to look at the other she-cat. "And I don't blame Hornetstrike for what he did, or Mapleleaf... they both raised me like they would anyone else. I'm just glad that I'm not the only one who feels that way." "The feeling's mutual." Slatesight spoke. "I hate to say it, but she still is. I don't think she ever forgave me for what I did, or even sees me as her father." the tom said, his voice dropping to a dismayed tone. "But I don't know if she still sees you as her father, either. I wish I could talk to her." Mothsong listened silently. Perhaps moons ago she would have sneered Slatesight and Mapleleaf’s names. She had once believed Hornetstrike to be lesser since he had been found as an outsider kit, long before it was known that Quailsong was his father. But now, looking at the pain in Magpiewing’s eyes, and knowing of her own pain in never being told the truth of her own father, she couldn’t find those sour feelings anymore. If anything, she felt less lonely knowing someone understood. “Well…” Mothsong murmured. “I understand that, alot actually. Your father’s a medicine cat that broke the code. My father was a murderous rogue who terrorized everyone he ever met. Neither of us were supposed to be born, and yet…I guess we’re still here. I appreciate that you’re here. I’ve always respected your dedication and your blunt honesty. It’s refreshing compared to being tiptoed around.” Hornetstrike looked at Slatesight with a twinge of guilt, though he soon shook his head and assured. “I hope Magpiewing knows, father or not, that I would always be there for her if she needed me to be. I think most kits want that, in the end, to know that you will be there for them. Maybe it’s time we truly ask how Magpiewing feels…and maybe assure her that you’re still her father and that you love her, even if she revealed the truth.” "You shouldn't be blamed for what your father did," Magpiewing reassured, remembering everything that had happened with Ringo and the other rogues. "We all know you would never support his actions. I'd claw anyone that tried to blame me or my siblings for being related to a medicine cat. You're a loyal ThunderClan cat, and I can see that now." she mewed. "I am also glad you're here. I know the Clan doesn't hold anything against me for what happened, but not many get it, you know?" Slatesight looked at his paws at that, not knowing if he was that sure of the idea. It would only hurt him more to find out if Magpiewing detested him. Bringing up the topic could only make things worse. "Perhaps." he answered, though he looked up at Lightningstar's call. |

Aspenfall tilted his head in curiosity. Peachdapple was going somewhere? He nodded, taking in everything that she instructed him to do. Nothing too difficult to take care of. "Can you tell me where you are going, or is this something StarClan instructed you to do?" he asked. He hoped she wasn't going somewhere too dangerous. Her loss would be a devastating blow to the already weakened Clan, and he couldn't imagine a medicine cat den without her. |

Mothsong felt a flicker of appreciation for the younger Warrior, offering a light smile as she nodded. “Right. Not many do get it. I think you did the right thing, you know. Keeping secrets like those does nothing but ruin everyone in the end…I’m guessing you don’t talk much to Slatesight these days?” |

Peachdapple offered a look of assurance as she sat beside the tom to listen to Lightningstar. “We’re going to try and strike a deal with Skyclan to trade herbs and get access to hunt at Twolegplace. If anything, it will be a good way to strengthen our bonds and perhaps prevent as much sickness and starvation for both of our clans as possible. Starclan has not sent me signs, so in times like these we go with our instincts. Do not worry. It will not be a danger so long as I am there.” |

"I can promise you however once we are at full strength and we have the herbs necessary to treat wounds we will claim our territory back." “What if Riverclan sees it fit to take more territory now that they surely must see us as weakened?” Autumnfall called up, concern in her voice for her sister and her kits. More so, she hated the thought that Riverclan must believe Thunderclan was a pushover. “Earthstar sure has the audacity to do this knowing that we need that prey for Leafbare. I hope Starclan gives them what’s coming to them.” Yarrowcloud grunted, pulling himself from the Elder’s den to look up at his leader. |

"I know many of you are concerned." Lightningstar continued. "If they continue to push into our territory we will push back. I don't believe its necessary at the moment however to fight an unnecessary battle." He looked at his clanmates. "To offset the loss of prey from the fire and sunningrocks, Ghostscreech has suggested sending patrols to the twolegplace. I have decided to give it a shot." He spoke. "Featherfoot, Ravenshade, Leopardfrost, and Eclipsepaw will lead patrols into the twolegplace due to their experience there."

“Twolegplace…” Yarrowcloud murmured, before a flicker of hope filled him. Surely that was where Bloompelt had to be, when she had left with her kits. The elder lifted his voice, trying not to sound as pained as he felt. “Can…can they perhaps keep an eye out for Bloompelt too? I just…if she’s there, I want to tell her that I’ll always love her…even if she’s not with us.” He asked.
Featherfoot looked sadly at his father, though inwardly the thought of seeing his sister again did give him hope. Maybe they would see her again on a patrol.

“Aw, what?” Scarletpaw huffed up at the leader, her eyes sharp with argument. “But there’s so much we could do to help! We’re not kits, after all!”
Dawnpaw shuffled a few steps away from his outspoken sister, embarrassment prickling at his pelt as she barked up right at the leader. Oh, Starclan, why was everything an argument with her? He sighed heavily, giving Scarletpaw a look for her outburst.

Shadowblossom looked at Featherfoot with worry, she knew he knew his way around there, but it didn't make the situation any less nerve-wracking.
Seafoam nodded approvingly from her spot near the elder's den, hoping the clan would recover swiftly.
Blizzardstorm nuzzled Squirreltail, "I will never let our kits starve. We'll find prey." he reassured softly.

“But what about Eclipsepaw? She’s still an apprentice!” Forestpaw called out. The apprentice lashed his tail, he wouldn’t mind proving himself to the clan by going to the twolegplace.
Squirreltail leaned against Blizzardstorm, hoping he was right.

"Eclipsepaw is one of the few cats in the clan with twolegplace experience." He spoke. "That is invaluable in this situation." He then added. "And after today she will no longer be an apprentice. Eclipsepaw step forward please." He spoke.

Scarletpaw lashed her tail in agreement with Forestpaw, only to scowl and toss her eyes lightly as Eclipsepaw was clearly going to receive her Warrior name. First she got to be Lightningstar’s apprentice, then she got to fight at Sunningrocks, and now she would be leading patrols to Twolegplace as the Clan’s newest Warrior! Scarletpaw huffed to herself, turning her gaze to the camp wall instead of watching the ceremony.

Forestpaw huffed and sat back, a scowl on his face. He shook his head as Eclipsepaw was called up, of course she would be made a warrior.
Eclipsepaw blinked in surprise as she was called up. She was being made a warrior? But she had lost to Fluffpaw and Crookedpaw. Flicking her ear, she stepped up to Lightningstar.
