Soon the fox went limp, when it stopped moving Bonefang let go and took a step back. Observing the bigger predator Bonefang mewed, "That was one gross, mangy fox." he spat, trying to get the taste of it out of his mouth. But the job was done, and their clanmates would be safer with it gone. Eaglestar would probably be a little happy knowing it was taken care off.

Eaglestar sat at the base of the Ancient Birch, grooming himself as he relaxed for a moment. His light brown, spotted fur was shiny as it was hit by the sunlight. He stood up and stretched out, he had finally decided to make someone deputy so now at least other cats would stop bothering him about it. "Oh Eaglestar you must pick a deputy soon!" or "Starclan will be angry if you don't pick a deputy, its against the code.". Honestly he was sick of it, he didn't like the idea of having to share any power. But if it meant someone else had to handle the day to day duties of sending out patrols and whatnot then he could tolerate it for now. " Greetings , Eaglestar , " A gentle greeting and a wave of a tail ; Barkpelt had passed his Clan Leader with a squirrel between his jaws . He slowed to a halt and set it down at his paws , offering a tired smile . Barkpelt always looked like he was tired ; his eyes always half lidded , but most knew it was just his easy going attitude .
" You look like you've got a lot on your mind . Never does well to think on an empty stomach , " He chuckled lightly , nodding to the squirrel . He didn't mind if he had to go and fetch another one for himself by any means . Though most held their Leader at an unreachable standard , Barkpelt liked to think that despite leading the clan , they were still cats like him and the others , and while Eaglestar deserved his respect ( which of course , he had , mind you , ) he thought it might do him some good to maybe not feel so tip - toed around . " How are you doing ? "
Though he wasn't going to say anything , he could feel his sister's amber eyes burning into his pelt from a distance once he caught her gaze . He tried his best to ignore it . He held no fear for his littermate , but since the announcement was made for a new deputy , she'd been giving him the side eye every time he even approached Eaglestar ...

"Hmm?" Eaglestar turned his gaze to Barkpelt, "Oh yes, hello Barkpelt." he greeted the other tom with a small dip of the head. "As leader it's fairly common to have a lot on my mind, although now that Rainfoot is deputy it does lift some weight off my shoulders. Now I can watch over the camp in peace." he explained, he starred at the squirrel Barkpelt was carrying. "I suppose I could eat such a nice looking squirrel, thank you Barkpelt." he gave his warrior a forced, soft smile and reach out to pick up the squirrel with his mouth.

Bonefang looked at Bramblestorm, "Okay, okay, you made a good call this time." he laughed, he looked back at the dead rabbit and saw some crows and buzzards landing close by. "Might as well head, leave those scavengers to clean up the mess." he huffed, his nose wrinkling at their disgusting odor.

(( Thanks !! <3 ))
" Doesn't sound like being Leader is all fun and games like every cat thinks it is , " He smirked , his head tilting to the side , " I can only imagine how much pressure you've got on you . It's good that you have someone to be there when you need it though , I'm sure Rainfoot will do just fine in her new position . " He rose to his paws once more , stretching out a bit . " In any case , I won't bother you too much , "
He glanced over his shoulder to see Rosethorn staring him down from across the way still . With an irritated sigh he flicked his tail , " Besides , it looks like I have a whole other set of problems to deal with . " He nodded slightly in Rosethorn's direction , giving a shrug . This was nothing new . Sure , she was a great mentor , a talented fighter and hunter , and loyal above all to her clan , but without a shadow of doubt she sure could be a major b-
" Barkpelt , would you mind coming with me for a moment ? "
There she was .
Though her voice was gentle and smooth as ice , you could tell by the look in her eyes that something was irritating her . Barkpelt rolled his eyes as his sister wrapped her fluffy tail around his shoulder and urged him in the direction of the Warrior's den . " I just saw the strangest thing , and you absolutely must see it . " She glanced over her shoulder to Eaglestar , dipping her head as she gave a fake nervous laugh , " Sorry to steal him away from you , Eaglestar , I'm sure he'll be back ! "
Once they were out of ear shot , a low growl rose in her throat as she thumped in front of her brother on heavy paws and slammed her rear onto the ground . " Of all cats , Rainfoot ?! " She hissed , her fangs parting , " Please , as if ! Way to be a hind - quarter kisser , Barkpelt . "
" It's called being civilized , something clearly you would know nothing about . " He muttered , shaking his head . At least she wasn't yelling about it aloud to the whole clan , something that wasn't entirely uncommon . " You're just jealous because you didn't get to become deputy . "
Rosethorn mock gasped , appearing offended , " Oh please , I would've been a much better choice ! " Though despite her throwing away his claims , he wasn't entirely wrong . Clearly this would take some getting over . It wasn't even like she even had any blatant rivalry with Rainfoot , in fact , the two didn't really talk often , - if at all - since they became Warriors . So why was it getting under her fur so bad ?
(( Rosethorn maybe if u weren't such a grump ,,, jeeze ,,,
I really love writing her though she's so ,,, antagonistic ,,, Villain Material™ ))

I wondered if I could join with a three legged elder whose expecting kits but the clan isn't yet aware of it? For a little bit of drama and fun? I understand if not, and intend to join all the same, but I thought I would ask first as to not waste anyone's time!

Eaglestar watched the two but said nothing, wondering if all siblings acted like that. He munched on on the squirrel, purring at the nice fresh taste of the prey. He continued to watch Barkpelt and Rosethorn, though he couldn't hear what was going on. He knew Rosethorn was a bit of a hot-head at time, so he could only image that Barkpelt did something to upset her.

Morningflight slipped through the camp entrance in silence, she kept herself as small as she could to avoid attention. Clamped in her jaws a small pair of mice which hung from their tails, it hadn't been her intention to find prey. She had left camp only with the intention of stretching her legs, and quieting the restless kits in her belly. It wouldn't be long before her kits entered the world, and her secret wouldn't be kept for much longer.
Dropping the prey onto the pile, she settled herself down without taking something for herself and began to groom her golden fur. Twitching her ears from side to side, carefully listening to the world around her, cautious for anyone who might be watching.
(Hope that was ok for a first attempt)

"Yeah." For once, Bramblestorm actually agreed with the other tom. "Let's go." Bonefang smiled, finally getting his way and began hurrying back toward the river to get to camp. (Let's just skip back to when they get back to camp, since not much will happen from this point.)

Bonefang headed back into camp, since Bramblestorm led the patrol for the most he figured it was okay for him to be a bit lazy and just let his fellow clanmate report to Eaglestar. He yawned and stretched out, heading over the fresh kill pile for a quick meal. He grabbed a mouse from the pile and sat down, plucking some fox fur out from between his paw toes.

Morningflight only twitched her ears as the tom walked past, careful not to make eye contact or even look in an obvious manner. Terrified that the slightest look might give them away, she shifted and stretched out. Grunting at further movement in her swollen belly, she repositioned herself to make it as unobvious as she could. Flinching at the kicks which made her flank shiver. Resting her head on her paws, she watched the fresh kill pile in hunger, imagining the taste of prey on her lips but not moving to get anything. Not that I deserve it anyway.
As much as she loved the tom, and at this rate she was beginning to hate to admit it. She wished beyond wishing that the kits had never happened, she knew that as soon as she was found out, she would be exiled. And it might as well be a death sentence for her and the little lives she carried. She didn't know what she was going to do, and was terrified of the consequences. Especially for the tom she loved.

Bonefang looked up for a moment and caught sight of Mourningflight, his ears flattened for a second and his lower his head to eat the mouse. Pretending he hadn't seen the she-cat, which was easier said than done as his ears already felt warm. He didn't mean to get feelings for a three-legged cat, not like he could control feelings like that. He only hoped that Starclan would forgive him, and her, for it because he knew the clan wouldn't show mercy with Eaglestar in control.

Another kick to the ribs very nearly drew a yelp of pain from the young shecat, and she winced visibly at the pain she let out a low hiss. Scolding herself inwardly for the show of pain, she only hoped that no one noticed. She wasn't used to this much movement, they were normally a very quiet litter but today they seemed intent on causing her as much discomfort as possible. She rolled onto her side, for a split second to try and relieve the pressure. In that moment showing the true extent to the swell of her stomach, but quickly straightening.

Bonefang couldn't help but look at the Mourningflight again, he caught a glimpse of her laying on her side. He noticed her belly bigger than usually and nearly choked on a piece of mouse. "She couldn't be..." he shook his head trying to shake off the fear, "Probably just been eating a lot lately." he reassured himself making a small, quiet laugh.

Sighing when she still couldn't find a comfortable position, and oblivious to the watching gaze of the warrior. Morningflight slipped to her paws and stretched again, the sound of cracking splitting across her back as she shook the ache from her bones. Nearly slipping when she lost balance on her side missing a leg, and grunting as she pulled herself back to her feet. Rolling her eyes at her own inelegance, she gave in to the pangs of hunger. Hoping no one would notice, she made her way to the fresh kill pile. Picking up the smallest thing she could find, a vole and settling back. This time a little closer to Bonefang, and devouring it in practically a single bite. It didn't fully finish her hunger, but it quietened the unborn kits in her belly, and made it easier to bare.
Regarding the tom for the first time properly with a flicker of her gaze, she contemplated silently saying something. Telling him. She was desperate to let someone know, anyone and he was the only one she could tell without fear of repercussion. At least that was what she hoped. She flinched as her flank shook again, this time a fair amount more noticabley. She wondered if even the little kits were trying to tell her to do it, but she didn't say anything. Looking away, abashed.
