Stormpaw frowned. His mentor hadn't responded. Was he okay? He seemed deep in thought. Stormpaw decided to wait for his mentor to respond. If Lynx wanted to think then he could, Stormpaw wouldn't interrupt him. Maybe he was daydreaming about a jucy mouse, or a meaty squirrel. Stormpaw wouldn't want to spoil that. Now that he thought about it, he was kind of hungry. He got up and padded quietly into the bush, walking a little ways away. He wouldn't go to far, he just had to hunt a bit so he could have something to give the clan. Then he could eat. He saw an injured Blue Jay hopping amongst the roots. He crouched low, his rump sticking up. He stepped on a twig, and the Jay let out a cry and flew up. He jumped, just catching it with his paw. He held it down on the ground, purring to himself, when he heard a rustling. He looked over to the tree a couple of fox lengths away and saw a huge squirrel. He looked at the jay. Lynxsoul sure would be proud if he brought that huge squirrel back... he took his paw off and the Jay flew up and away. He crouched again, and kept at the squirrel, but it ran. He followed it, getting further and further from his mentor...

"H-huh..!?" My eyes glanced over as I noticed Stormpaw running toward a squirrel. I frowned for a moment. "I'm awake, I swear!" I yowled out in protest, quickly dashing over to help my apprentice with the hunt. My eyes trained on the squirrel, as hunger began to set in. "The two of us can most likely catch that!" I boasted, unsure really what I wanted to think at the moment besides getting a good prey to bring back.

(Oooohhh yeah. Blackbrook is the mastermind behind everything, kinda. He's a medicine cat with a god complex and he's the one who pushed Owlshadow to kill the previous deputy. Here's a link to a discussion we had about Blackbrook's character in the planning thread. If you're interested in having Lizardpaw side with him, you should chat with Faun about it there! :3) (Uhh well Owlshadow is a bit malicious in the fact that he thinks strength and cunning is everything and he doesn't have time for "weak" cats, so as leader he'll be pretty strict on stuff and will also... be a little murder-y with the clanmembers who don't see eye-to-eye with him) Okay thanks. Stormpaw won't be siding with him though, because as his character description stated he won't hurt his clanmates to get to his ambition. In fact, he would oppose his rule, because of the cat(s) he had to kill to get there. But thanks for clearing it up though! |

Stormpaw grinned. With Lynxsoul here helping him, he was sure to get this squirrel. Then he saw it was heading toward a tree. He sped up, running in a crescent to get in front of it. He lept cutting it off from the tree and sending it straight to Lynxsoul. He fell over, the sudden contact of ground making him let out an audible 'Oof'.

Seeing my only chance to get the squirrel, thanks to my apprentice's aid, I leaped for it with my claws extended, intending to capture it. I landed on the ground in the hopes I was successful. I made a note to check on my apprentice in a few moments, staring down to possibly bite down on its neck. It was uncertain, due to being a long time since I made a successful hunt.

Stormpaw watched Lynxsoul eagerly. He could learn something about killing prey here, if he payed close attention!

I smirked, noticing I had caught the squirrel. Then after tilting my head down, I proceeded to mercy kill our prey with one swift bite. The squirrel laid still at my paws, causing me to glance over. "Hey, Storm! Caught it! Come on over!" I purred in happiness, noting Stormpaw and I made a good hunting team.

Stormpaw shot up and rushed over to the dead squirrel and his mentor. "Maybe you won't have to teach me anything!" He said, puffing his chest out Jokingly. His mentor had done most of the work, but that didn't mean he couldn't be happy with his accomplishment. He looked at the scratch on his side from where he fell. It was okay, only a couple of scratch marks, it was hardly even bleeding. He would hit it a wash when they were finished with the days activities.

"Yup. Calm and quiet until patrols are sent out and everyone is busy with something." Russetclaw flicked his tail tip along the ground. "Especially now since cats have to keep in groups when leaving camp." He fond of groups to often but now it seemed like he no choice since danger was lurking around somewhere in the territory.

"Ha, you've got a lot to learn. Though, here," I passed the squirrel over to my apprentice.
"You spotted the squirrel first, think you can take it back to camp." A few moments later, my eyes glanced over to see if there was any more prey we could bring back later. "Let's see...anything else to go along with this kill would be nice."

"Whatever it takes to keep us safe, I guess." Novalight shrugged. "We need everybody to feel secure in camp, and safety in numbers is how they opted to do it. It at least makes sense."

Mewing goodbye to his mentor he picked up the squirrel and started padding back to camp. He planned to get back as soon as he could, wanting to hunt again. As he padded through the entrance he saw a couple of warriors, one of them being Owlshadow. He skirted around the edge, trying desperately to stay away from the terrifying deputy. Depositing the squirrel, he began to hurry to the entrance.

I started to head back with the assumed route in mind, but then I recalled the undergrowth was really easy to get lost. My head turned aside in slight confusion. "Oh, I hope this was the right way to go. The last thing I need is to find myself forgetting where the..." then I slowly froze. "Well, this sucks. I don't recall how we got here in the first place. Maybe I should've followed Storm." I nervously chuckled in an attempt to lighten the mood, only to have reality sink in that my sense of direction was not the best, especially in a thick forest.

With the help of Stormberry, Lizardpaw got to her paws again, sniffing and nodding.
"My shoulder hurts.. can I go to the medicine cat before we patrol?" She mumbled, standing awkwardly as she avoided putting weight on one of her front legs. It was still pulsing, and felt a bit out of place, making every movement of it painful.
Lizardpaw probably dislocated it after she ran it into the tree. Honestly, she wasn't in the best condition to go on a patrol right now. "Yeah." Stormberry helped Lizardpaw to her paws, and walked her back to camp. As they were walking Stormberry said," I'd suggest taking a break from your duties today. Go get yourself a squirrel to eat." Stormberry chuckled. When Lizardpaw started over to the Medicine Cat's den, she saw Littlespring still sitting in the clearing. "Hey, sorry about that, her private lesson took a bit longer than I thought it would. She won't be hunting today. But how about we still go on a hunting patrol? I see Lynxsoul left already with his apprentice." |

"Should we catch up to them? Stonestar said to patrol with more than two cats." Littlespring mewed with a flick of her ear. "Otherwise, I would have loved some alone time." She mewed her voice sweet. Littlespring never really flirted before but she had a good idea of it.

Littlespring never really flirted before but she had a good idea of it. Stormberry became a bit flustered after Littlespring did that. She was deifying all expectations of herself by even talking to the she-cat, let alone do anything flirtatious. So Stormberry did what she did best, pretending it never happened. "It would be nice to catch up, we never send time together do we?" Stormberry realized that may have been a bit flirtatious. Mouse-dung. Ignore it, move on. "Yeah, let's catch up to them. Did you see which way they went?" |

"I think so." Littlespring mewed getting to her paws. She makes her way to the entrance and waits on the other side for Stormberry. Seemed she may have to flirt a little more.

Stormberry was just about to start following Littlespring, when she saw Stormpaw enter the camp alone. Wasn't the rule that more than two clans needed to be with each other when out of camp? Those two shouldn't even been out there, let alone sending an apprentice back by themselves. "Hey Stormpaw! Where's Lynxsoul?"
(Going to sleep, see y'all tomorrow.)

Littlespring flicked her ear in annoyance. Were they ever going to hunt? "Yeah where is Lynxsoul?" She asked keeping her voice yet questioning.

"No, not here either. This is getting annoying." I sighed, after seeing yet another wrong turn. I was walking through the undergrowth of the High Pines Forest, having sadly gotten myself lost. It was ridiculous to believe I let myself end up like this and it just made it all the more worrying about Stormpaw much worse. The worst part about all this have I felt myself feeling unnaturally tired--was it from spending too much energy or something completely unrelated? I had no idea, all I did notice was I was casually laying down on the ground and slowly shutting my eyes. My breathing was slowing down. Why did I feel the sudden need to sleep? Something was seriously wrong here, I should have gotten plenty of sleep last night in the warriors den, after all! I quietly sighed, after my eyes fully closed. My thinking started to get less frequent before I knew it; I was dozing off to sleep in the middle of the forest...

(i'll respond in a little bit to the roleplays, but Blackbrook is totally the type to be likw, "the ancestors see greatness in you and by following me I can get you the power and respect that you deserve, even if it isnt exactly a ruling position-" but he'd like cats to know he's calling the shots because he has all this power- so he's also the type to set up little "reminders" that he's actually the big cat around here because HE'S the best, and HE have them this power, and suchnot lol)

"I know but everyone well be looking over their shoulders twice as much now." Russetclaw got to his paws stretching out his hindlegs. "Anyway we should see if another patrol needs to be sent out. Sitting around during is great but it does get boring eventually." He looked around camp trying to find Owlshadow just to check with the deputy before gathering a few cats for a patrol.

"Yeah, I guess." Novalight got up from his sitting position. "Talk with you later, Russetclaw." He turned and began to wander about in the camp, seeing if anybody needed help.

( Hawkeyes258 I have Heatherpaw looking for Dawnripple if you'd like to roleplay :3 Put a starter for it in a page back~ ) "Right." That made sense.. and she could see why, with all the worry about Yellowclaw why cats should be cautious. "U-Uh." should they? Wouldn't that just be disobeying even more...? But if they joined they would be following the four cat rule. "...If you'd like, Minnowheart." She offers. Usually she went along with whatever Heatherkit wanted and then cleaned up the mess after, as an apprentice.. they wouldn't have too much time together to get into trouble. She sees Owlshadow padding into the clearing though, if they'd want to head out after them, they'd have to be quick before he noticed. "Let's go..?" ~~~~ Blackbrook says some parting words to his apprentice, they may be confused when he wakes up, but they could wait while he discussed more pressing matters than what poultice was going to be needed to remove ticks as the seasons changed. He casts a quick glance over the camp, glad to see they were all busy with their own business before he slipped out of camp and makes his way to the rocks. He'd persuade Owlshadow to catch something for him later- the deputy certainly had finesse when it came to the activity; when Blackbrook was younger, he did try and convince the other to teach him, but his prey was always killed sloppily. Mice and birds were so small and quick... things of a larger size fell under his claws far easier. At the rocks he stretches and begins to groom, enjoying the quiet noises of the forest around him. ~~~~"I don't want to leave the den." "Larkeye... you can't stay in." "They're mad at me. I shouldn't have mentioned Yellowclaw-" "Of course not. But you cannot stay in the den," Speckleclaw sighs, "You'll have to join me in the warrior den again, Larkeye... and if any cat mentions what happened at the meeting, you apologize." "I want to stay here, this is my den-" "This is the den for queen's, Larkeye, and all of our kits are in the apprentice den." He gives her a stern look and stands, "I have duties to this clan, and so do you." Though he gives her an affectionate nuzzle, he turns and leaves her in the den quickly. Patrols were needed, prey needed to be gathered, and so on. When he steps out, however, cats seem a bit scattered and there is a disgruntled deputy watching over with disapproval. ~~~~ Briawpaw spots Blackbrook slipping out of camp- Shouldn't he have a warrior with him...? And where was his apprentice? Certainly those two wouldn't be allowed to wander off by themselves- especially those two, who didn't have any fighting skills- the thought is cut off quick when he spots Speckleclaw. Briarpaw tenses, expecting Larkeye close behind, but she doesn't follow. Huh. Well, Owlshadow was up and looking around the camp... Heatherpaw was peeking into the warriors den, so on and so on- but where was Blazestep? Sleeping still..? Would he even get to leave the camp today? With his luck, no, so he'd get one thing done at least and go check on Ripplepelt... if she still wanted to see him after Larkeye's inconsiderate words last night. He hesitantly makes his way towards the elders den. |

Dawnripple makes her way over to Heatherpaw and uses her paw to poke her. "So little one, are you ready to start training?" She wasn't sure if she should use the same statics her mentor used or come up with her own. Come on focus! The clan is watching and I need to show them how great I can be!

Shadowpaw hung around in the shadows. She thought about the new addition. She had never considered it wrong to not be clanborn, so she didn't get why everyone was making such a large fuss about it. If she had nothing to complain about in a subject, clearly everyone else shouldn't as well. She shook out her fur, and sat down again, and hoped she didn't have to do something productive, as she was feeling lazy. More than usual.

What seemed like mere moments, my eyes sharply opened. I shot up from the ground, staring around in a panic. "What the--" I growled when I noticed that again I was waking up in an unfamiliar place. Sighing slowly, I tried to recall what happened and only just noticed I was alone again. "..." I was silent for a good amount of time, debating my options. Go back to camp now and get chewed out for something out of my control, or wait till I was found. No, I know what needed to be done and it was to get moving before I passed out yet again. I moved forward through the High Pines Forest' undergrowth, finally making my way back, at least I hoped I did, given I can't see as good for some reason. "Storm?" I cried out weakly, sounding way more exhausted than I would've like. There was a huge issue--I could barely keep my eyes open for more than a few minutes. "Berry? Lizard? Anyone?" I weakly cried once more, nearly slumping to the ground. Something's wrong with me--I shouldn't be this exhausted so early on, and I really shouldn't be passing out without warning either, but could I do? Who would even believe me? I might sound insane if I tried even talking about it. I just tried to do everything to avoid falling asleep again, barely trying to keep my attention from drifting off unwarranted.

Darkwind wondered when the hunting patrols would return. He looked down into the fresh kill pile and flicked his ear. He didn't want to take anything even though he was hungry.
