Harestar padded out of the medicine cat's den, having his wounds that weren't fixed from his new life being treated. He saw Dewnose'snvigil had ended and walked over to Sparrowtail's and Mothdapple's bodies. "It's time to burry them." he mewed sadly.

He saw Dewnose'snvigil had ended and walked over to Sparrowtail's and Mothdapple's bodies. "It's time to burry them." he mewed sadly. Pricklepaw had returned and gazed expressionlessly the leader. He shouldered up his father onto his back and, struggling under the weight, crept over to the grave. With a grunt he rolled Mothdapple into the earth.

( Aww. D: Shame about Rose and Blue quitting, but I'm glad everyone made it to the battle! Would it be ok if I made a new cat to be Ravensteps' former mate? Different character, same role? I wanted a queen and kitten characters. Also now that the battle is over I'm gonna replace Sparrowtail with a ton of cats just watch me. c': I wanted to make a few more kitties. ^u^ )
Foxpaw sighed, feeling his eyes tear up again he quickly drew his paw over them. He moved away from Honeypaw to sit by his mother, brother and father. This would be the last time they'd all be together, besides StarClan, of course. He knew they'd bury her soon a for a moment he feared how his family, especially his brother, would react to this. Crowpaw had barely moved from her side after she died.
Nightglisten watched her for a moment, and, seeing she knew what she was doing padded off to check up on all the patients. A few might need a cahnge of cobwebs soon. Looking to Mooneyes he replied. "Yes, but it shan't be too much use." He pushed the dried flowers toward her. "Snow's spoiled them, but, maybe they'll still be effective enough."

Harestar assisted in Mothdapple's burial. "He would have been very proud of the way you fought the rest of the battle today, Pricklepaw."
(Lol yes Rain you totally can)
Honeypaw comforted Foxpaw once more before he left. She padded off, wanting to give the family space.

( Ok! I'll post them later then. c: BRB for a little bit. )
Shiverpaw sat by during the burial, not daring to look anyone in the eye, especially Pricklepaw. She felt ashamed she's run out of camp so soon during the battle, and the relations of the dead especially her mentor's son, made it ten times worse. She silently asked StarClan they'd all travel safely there, then turned and padded back into the apprentice den. She couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Foxpaw nudged Crowpaw with a paw as he noticed Mothdapple's burial was over, his expression grim. "... Crowpaw? Mothdapple's been buried now and... Mother..." Crowpaw shot Foxpaw a look, eyes wide. The sleek black tomcat was still shaking and he slowly shook his head, wanting more time. Fox however sat up, his tears had stopped but his eyes looked glassy and depressed. "... Your brother's right." He said, placing a paw on Crowpaw's head comfortingly. "Come on... we've... we've said good bye."

After the burials of the badgers, Dewnose, Mothdapple's and Sparrowtail were done, Harestar walked to Sandpebble. "I'm sorry." he said to his daughter. "but we must bury him now, and far away."

Pricklepaw gave Harestar a half-smile. "Oh, yeah? I sure hope." His gaze shifted across each member of the Clan, united in their mourning. He noticed Shiverpaw pad away and trotted after her when his father's burial was finished. He entered the apprentice den and stood there, watching for a few moments before finally speaking. "What's wrong with you?" he asked harshly, before exhaling deeply and correcting his tone. "Sorry, I mean... what's wrong? You're usually pretty angry and it's odd to see you so quiet," he murmured, approaching her. His face was empty and plain, as though the reality of Mothdapple's death hadn't caught up to him yet.

"No not yet," Sandpebble said softly and looked down at her brother. "He wasn't a bad cat...just misguided.." she added as though she needed someone to know that.

"I'm sorry, but it's ritual. We must do it now." Harestar responded, still processing everything that happened and everything he learned today.

Harestar nodded at her response and looked for a few warriors to help him.

Snowbird purred. "Okay." She said, watching him leave. She looked over at Briarclaw with worry and stretched out her front feet. Maybe she could manage to crawl over to him. Tawnyhaze glanced up, catching Icefire's gaze. The tom flicked his tail. "Are you okay?" He asked, knowing a badger had gotten ahold of her paw.

"I'll help," Sandpebble mewed and tried to stand despite her leg that hadn't been taken care of yet.

Harestar shook his head. "You haven't been seen yet." He would've loved her company, there were so many questions he had. But now wasn't the time.

Harestar sighed. "Alright. But the second we come back you are going to the medicine cat den." he told her. He sounded like a father.

"Thank you," Sandpebble mewed and waited for the other warriors to get her brother onto their backs

Tawnyhaze glanced up, catching Icefire's gaze. The tom flicked his tail. "Are you okay?" He asked, knowing a badger had gotten ahold of her paw. (Not sure if I replied to this.) Icefire shrugged. "I'm not as bad as I could've been. Hurts to walk though." she looked him over. "Are you?"

Doeleap and Wolfshadow walked over to carry Mudfang. Harestar also joined them, picking up the other end. He motioned for Sandpebble to follow.

Smallnose headed for the medicine den, bringing the last few cobwebs she'd collected, then being instructed by Nightglisten to sit and wait for her own injuries to be tended to. She had watched the burials from there, her eyes sad as he saw the three cats for the last time. She noticed Harestar walking towards Sandpebble and narrowed her eyes. She knew all outsiders where not bad, Mudfang was just a cruel exception... but, the traitor's sister? She wasn't sure how she should feel about her.
Ravenheart was curled up near the medicine den entrance. Now that the burials where over and his wounds where tended to he decided to rest right there. He was exhausted and his leg was throbbing with pain, but he felt he should remain out of the warriors den, in case he was needed for anything. It felt wrong to just go off into the den and sleep just then. Though I feel as though I can sleep for a moon I'm so tired... He thought, placing his head on his paws.
Foxpaw had to pull Crowpaw away from Sparrowtail as they buried her, and he and Fox aided in carrying her to her grave, Crowpaw following behind, but seeming to protest the entire time. After all was done Foxpaw sat with his brother near the medicine den, both needed a few herbs to avoid infection. Crowpaw had stopped shaking, but he was staring around blankly, looking lost and afraid.
Shiverpaw was curled in her nest when Pricklepaw' voice made her start. She was facing the opposite direction, and did not turn around when he entered, only flattening her ears on her head and looking towards the wall. What could she say? "I-I'm just... tired." She replied, her voice hushed. It was true, but, at the same time, not. Yet could she even admit to him her fleeing camp?
Fox remained on the sidelines, watching the clan in a haze of confusion and disbelief. He flinched whenever a cat passed or he spotted anyone injured. He also avoided going near the medicine den. What could those healers do? They couldn't save her, they shouldn't help me. He thought bitterly.

Tawnyhaze turned sideways. "Badger got me in the side when I went after Snowbird." He said. "Mooneyes won't let me leave."

Honeypaw flattened her ears as she walked past Fox, afraid if he'd say anything to her. She walked towards the medicine cat's den. Now that the shock was over of having her father killed and knowing how her brother died, she could use a few poppy seeds

Harestar guided the cats deep into camp, close to border. He started digging in silence.

Tawnyhaze noticed her shock and knew where it came from. "Don't be so surprised." He said gruffly. "I still love her like a sister." He said, looking away. The tom didn't like talking about this topic, but he felt it wouldn't go away anytime soon.

Sandpebble helped dig by scooping up single pawfuls of dirt and flinging them away

Those usually knock me out real quick," he murmured.

The tom didn't like talking about this topic, but he felt it wouldn't go away anytime soon. "You expect me to believe that when sunrise you told her how awful she was for being half Clan?" Icefire scoffed. "Just because you saved my life doesn't mean I think you're no longer a bully."
