Tinyflower nearly jumped when the little kit's eyes peeked open, her own litter hadn't even had the opportunity to get that far, and her heart swelled at the sight of the tiny blue eyes. She rubbed her nose against the tiny kits cheek, "Good morning little one." She whispered quietly, "Welcome to Birchclan."{/sub]

Whisperfall made her way leisurely towards the Oak Bridge, enjoying the suttle whisper of the leaves in the wind. As she arrived near the Oak Bridge, she made sure her paw steps were careful, she had heard many stories about cats who had fallen and swept away by the current. She quickly and calmly collected some moss, and padded back to camp.

He purred at the voice he heard, it sounded very nice to his ears. He lifted his head a bit to touch Tinyflower with his nose, the purr still rumbling in his throat. He didn't completely understand what she said, but he would in time.

Chuckling at his soft touch, she exhaled her warm breath onto the little kit's underbelly. Playing with it with the tip of her nose, tickling him gently.

Coldkit huffed and squirmed a bit as he was tickled, he tried to reach out with his paw to find the source of the tickling air. His paw landed gently on Tinyflower's nose, he let out curious mewl and sniffed.

Tinyflower growled with laughter, the sound vibrating from her chest. "A warrior already it would appear," she purred.

Sorry for the lack of format I’m on Mobile rip ))
It wasn’t right away that she caught sight of a strange cat in a different part of their territory ; in fact , the muscular she cat thought she had been seeing things , and instead had fixed her attention back on the squirrel she had been tracking . As she snapped it’s neck between her jaws , she hurried away towards the camp without looking back ...
Rosethorn had returned later that evening , hers and her hunting party’s jaws full with prey to deposit to the fresh kill pile. She strode into camp proudly , her chin tilted upward as she set their kills down . She waved her tail in dismissal and the other cats disbanded , looking rather pleased with themselves as well .
“ Talk about a successful hunting trip , ” She purred , heading towards Eaglestar to alert him of their return . “ Good news , we brought back plenty of prey , and the territory has been patrolled and marked . We should be fine for the next few sunrises . Just thought you should be informed since your ... deputy apparently has yet to make her presence known . ” She muttered the last part of her sentence a bit , but nonetheless shook out her fur .
“ Did you need anything before I go ? ”

Whisperfall arrived back at camp, ducking into the raspberry bush den, taking out the old moss and placing it near the entrance to the den. She laid the slightly damp moss on top of the den dry for a bit. She discarded the old moss and tromped over to the nursery. She poked her head in to see if Tinyfkower was awake.

Coldkit yawned, showing he pink toothless gums and little pink tongue. He tried to curl up on top of Tinyflower's flank. Nuzzling into her fur, enjoy the warmth and familiar scent of his 'mother'.

Watching the kit in amusement, she licked his cheek and let him doze off against her flank. She twitched her ears at the sound of movement by the nursery entrance and craned her neck to look in order to see who was there. She looked a little uncertain of strangers around the nerborns, but she knew she could trust her clanmates regardless. "Good morning, Whisperfall." She said quietly.

"Good morning!" Whisperfall mewed "I just wanted to pop in and see the new kits really quick!" She glanced over them, and her heart absolutely melted. "Oh they're too precious! Do they have names?" She bubbled, trying to be quiet for their sensitive ears.

Sparkkit squirmed close to her mother's belly, mewling a little at the sound of a new voice. Curious but too bothered to be bothered to try and do anything, happy to sleep in the warmth of Tinyflower's fur and not intending to move for the time being. The tiny shecat suckled peacefully, her tiny paws kneading into the queen's underbelly.
Tinyflower purred proudly, they may not have been her own but that didn't mean she couldn't love them as much as a real mother did. She brushed her tail past each kit as she spoke, and said their names one by one. "Sparkkit, Coldkit, Dawnkit and (Unclaimed)kit."

"Beautiful names for beautiful kits!" Whisperfall whispered enthusiastically. "I'll leave you to rest now." Whisperfall smiled and took one last look at the kits.

Palefire was perched on a log not far outside of camp, his ears strained to hear the scuttling pitter patter of prey's paws, but here he heard none.
"Foxdung," he hissed quietly to himself, his own paws snapping a branch as he slid from the disheveled trunk. He felt the chill of the breeze through his thin pelt and shivered where he stood.

The young queen winced, it was hardly as though she needed rest. They weren't hers. In actuality she was full of energy and dying to burn it off, but she knew she had to stay put to ensure they stayed safe.

When she came over to him Eaglestar smiled, "I can see that, very good job Rosethorn." he mewed grateful to have someone in this clan capable of taking charge. "No no you've done plenty for now, but if I need anything done around here in the future I know exactly which cat to go to." he purred giving the she-cat a small wink before dismissing her. |

Leaf Eye trotted along the territory, for an old cat his body still felt young majority of the time. He batted at a few leaves as they fell to the ground. The clan scent was fresh around here, but the tom meant no harm so he didn't feel any reason to worry.

Palefire trotted further away from camp in the hopes of catching a whiff of something to bring back to camp.
He smelled no such creature, but as he parted his angular maw something flooded his senses, causing him to instinctively snap his mouth closed.
He scented loner, and close. With a cautious pace, he fell in step with the winding and alarmingly fresh smell.

Whisperfall walked back to the warriors den and swiped the new moss off the top of the nursery roof, and took it in her mouth. She laid it down in her spot in the warriors den and she Laid her head on her paws, sighing. One day I could have kits... Maybe. I don't think anyone likes me like that though. She sighed again and curled up in a small ball.

(I'm just gonna time skip with everyone; assume that Hailrush's and Cinderfrost's misadventures outside of the camp went smoothly! If you guys (Night and Apple) that play Nightpaw or Russetpaw want to have had something happen, just allude to it in your passages and I'll roll with it! I'd just like to be back up to date with everyone. ^^;;;; )
Hailrush watched her clanmate, Rosethorn, bitterly, feeling her tail tick back and forth as she waited in the midst of camp. She had been on her hunting patrol with her and was quite sick and tired of the calico sucking up to their leader like a baby bird. To be fair, she was likely just projecting her frustrations of the day directly onto who she saw as her main competition for deputy. Hailrush understood this, but it didn't stop her from keeping a close eye on the she-cat. The two were an even match, both in the number of apprentices they had mentored and in physical strength. Rosethorn, however, was much better with her words and that automatically made Hailrush feel threatened. She was sneaky and coy; Hailrush was blunt and honest, which was a quality of hers not quite appreciated among others.
To say that the large silver tabby was 'upset' was a servere understatement; she was somewhere past the point of livid. The events that transpired in the previous day further made her wary about the future in store for Birchclan; Eaglestar was seeming more and more as a tyrant that used the fear of StarClan to oppress those he saw as weaker. But oh, did she wish that she had been back in camp during the time; then again, she likely would have ended up exiled, or worse, dead. She thought of all the cats with short tails she had trained in her moons, bitterly wondering if their disadvantage at balance and jumping made Eaglestar look down on them. She lashed her tail fitfully as she realized if anyone were to bring that fact up to her leader, he might take it seriously as opposed to rhetorical; she dropped her kill into the pile.
Hiding her frustration was not a goal of hers; the warrior was big and could handle any conflict that presented itself. She at least hoped that her clanmates would have the decency to respect any differences in philosophy that she had with her leader.

Eaglestar sat by the Ancient Birch, he rolled the rose a little with his paws. The tall tom was still confused, he hoped Starclan would send him another message soon. If this was a matter of changing deputies then he needed to know soon before anything bad happened to the clan. He pulled the rose closer to his with his tail, tucking it close between his tail and flank.

Rosethorn chuckled airily , swishing her tail confidently before striding off to sit towards the center of camp . She perched herself carefully atop a small boulder , sunlight streaming down onto her through the clouds that hung in the air and covered most of the camp . She let the breeze ruffle her fur and whiskers for a moment before running her tongue over her paw and flattening out her fluffy fur . She sat silently in thought , observing the other cats around her . She knew this would make Eaglestar think , perhaps budge , but not move forward completely . Despite her strategic shining throne in the sun , she knew she had to think of another way to push her agenda ...
Her eyes lazily rested on Hailrush , and she raised an apathetic eyebrow . Oh , the things she could say , but she knew better . She was one step ahead of the game , and couldn't wait to see the look on her face when she upped her game .
" Hailrush , how nice to see you , " She chided , continuing to groom herself , " Have you seen those kits that I brought back unscathed ? Absolutely adorable , you really should go see them some time ~ " Rosethorn whisked her tail aside as she stood , tipping her chin up and flicking her tail under her clanmate's nose as she grabbed a piece of prey from the pile .

The silver tabby almost rolled her eyes at the comment, feeling an uneasy prickle settle along her spine. The calico was just trying to push her buttons today and she could taste it in the back of her throat like rotten kill. Instead of being outwardly foul to her fellow warrior, she instead shrugged off her sarcastic tone like a snake sheds skin. "We were on a patrol a few moments ago, Rosethorn," she said bluntly, before adding a little more playfully, "Unless you're just always soooo keen on seeing my lovely face." Oh Starclan, she wanted to vomit.
Hailrush directed her attentions to the kits; she hadn't gone into see them, but they were all anyone could talk about. A miracle, many whispered, that they didn't have their mother's deformity; she couldn't help but snort every time she heard such nonsense. "They are precious; a wonderful addition to the clan," she mewed lightly, still upset about how the events had transpired but kept those thoughts to herself. "Russetpaw is quickly on her way to becoming a well-rounded and capable warrior; I'm hoping to earn another apprentice by the time they are ready." Perhaps she was being a little cheeky by responding as such, knowing that Rosethorn had been expressively upset about not having an apprentice at the moment, but her sass didn't falsify the truth of the statement. It was a lesser known interest of Hailrush's to train apprentices from naive kits to warriors that could leave their marks on top of the claw wall. She was definitely good at it, if she did say so herself.

(( I'm so loving this thing between them it's ,, appalling Rose is like ,, trying to establish her dominance as SassMaster™ ,, but rIGHT NOW THEY'RE LIKE WHITE SUBURBAN MOMS IM DYIN . ))
" Well , someone's got to be glad to see you , " She snorted , taking a bite of her kill and swallowing it before stretching . She raised her head to glance over to Hailrush , giving a lackadaisical shrug to cover her irritability about not having an apprentice at the moment . She tried not to let it prickle her pelt too much though ; after all , she would have something much better in store soon ... Unfortunately , before she could open her mouth to say anything else , her brother had swiftly approached at her side .
" Nice to see you guys were able to bring such a hefty amount of prey back to camp . We definitely need to store up before it gets too cold , " Barkpelt had fur as thick as his sister's , but even he was starting to get antsy at the weather patterns . He felt a bit guilty about not being able to hunt like his sister ; he wasn't exactly good at it . He was good with tracking , sure , in fact , he was quite skilled at it , but executing the kills didn't come as easily . He didn't quite have the speed required , even though he had the patience and the sneakiness .
" Oh - Hey there , Hailrush , " He smiled , almost ... nervously ? He sat down a few paces away , curling his tail over his paws , " Sorry , I hope I wasn't interrupting anything , my apologies - "
How could a tom like him be related to such a rough cat like Rosethorn , honestly ?

Leaf Eye sat in a tall pine tree nearby the clan camp, his curiosity got the better of him and he decided to see what it all looked like. He was sitting on a branch high up the tree, staring down at the moving cats below. "They all look like kits from up here!" The senior tom said, laughing out loud. He could sense there was some tension in the clan, but it wasn't his place to stick him nose where it didn't belong.
