Currentpaw looked down, realizing she was making this more about her when Rosepaw had lost someone close to him. "I'm sorry... I know losing Hawkcry was hard for everyone, but he was your mentor and had been training you and you had memories with you and..." she trailed off at her rambling, feeling the choke in her voice again. The tears started to fall. "I'm sorry Rosepaw... this all isn't fair" she murmured.

RosePaw leaned over and pulled the she-cat closer to him before placing his chin on her head. "It's okay. Losing HawkCry will not be in vain. And I understand that you were scared, just breath and calm down. Try to get some sleep." He spoke his words softly and tracing swirls on the she-cat's back with his tail tip as he spoke, hoping to calm her down.

When Fallendew came into the den Creekstar nodded to her. "Thank you for coming. I wish to speak to you concerning the clan. I know that you will be busy these next couple of days preparing to leave but I want to ask you to be on the look out for signs from Starclan about where we should go. And come to me as soon as you have a sign." The clan leader worried that this great journey they were to embark on would be an endless search for a new home. He just wanted the best for his can and sadly it was no longer the territory that he and many others grew up in. "And make sure to get some rest for yourself. You are taking the journey as well and we cannot loose you dear friend", the tom spoke softly as to not wake his sleeping mate. "Why don't you go rest now so you can start fresh in the morning. If you need the other apprentices to help gather herbs tell their mentors I have given you permission to use them." With that said he then curled up around his mate and gently started to groom her again untill the beautiful calico was silky and clean. He then laid his head down and fell asleep.
((Is everyone ready for the time skip?))

RosePaw and CurrentPaw are still talking. Right after they finish is fine though))
FallenDew nodded slightly before exiting the den. She yawned widely and saw PoolingWater and WolfShadow asleep in the camp. She smiled at the sleeping pair as she padded to her den. Flopping into her nest she pulled her tail over to cover her nose and quickly fell asleep, wolf teeth flashing through her dreams.
(Falcon. PM please. I asked fr more info on the idea))

Currentpaw laid her head down, hiding her face as she breathed to calm herself. “Rosepaw, you said you wanted to cry, yet you’re not... How are you feeling?” She finally asked, knowing the tom was in pain himself.

Soaringflower lifted her slender head and rested her black and orange face against his shoulder with a soft sigh, purring as she felt his attentive grooming across the slight swell of her stomach. She looked down at her belly with a purr, "I cant believe I'm going to be a mother," she admitted with a slight grin lighting her expression. She really seemed unable to believe the news herself, she'd had her suspicions but had never guessed she'd be so lucky. But the timing scared her, the idea that her kits might be born in an unsafe place. She wrapped her tail tightly around her very slightly swollen stomach, "I will give my life for them," she said mostly to herself.

RosePaw didn't speak for a while, trying to figure out how to word his feelings. HE finally spoke after a few more moments. "IT feels as if my entire body hates me for not going after HawkCry. Like my body is trying to rip itself apart from the inside out as punishment. I want to cry... but for some reason I find myself unable to." His voice cracked as he spoke.

Currentpaw nuzzled the tom to comfort him, laying her head against his body. "It hurts..." she murmured quietly before looking at Rosepaw again. "Rosepaw you're strong, thank you" she finally said and rested her head again on his body. "How do you feel having said that?"

RosePaw felt tears entering his eyes and laughed lightly, smiling. "Better. It feels like my guilt has lifted some." He nuzzled the she-cat. "Go to sleep. You need your rest."

Currentpaw nodded, closing her eyes and pulling her head down to lay it on top of her paws. She wrapped her tail around her and fell asleep.
(Alright time skip is good)

RosePaw also started to nod off and didn't feel like returning to his nest. So he simply curled around CurrentPaw and slowly fell asleep.
(Yep. Now's good)

"We will find the perfect place to raise our kits. I promise", Creekstar said softly his eyes still closed. He had heard his mate and wanted to make sure that she knew he would do everything possible to keep their kits safe and find them the perfect home.
((Okay I'll do it now let me type it up real quick before I have to go to town))

TIME SKIP 2 Days
Creekstar woke full of energy and ready to start his day. Today was the day that the clan was to leave. The only activity that any cat did in the clan was hunt and gather herbs, other than that the clan cats ate and rested. With every cat now able to make the journey it was time they left before the wolves decided to attack the camp. Carefully rising to his paws he gave Soaringflawer a quick good morning lick before exiting the leaders den. Under his paws the soft snow crunched and a small breeze blew through the camp. The sun had not yet risen over the horizon and the plan was to leave the moment the sun came up. The dark tom sent up a quick prayer to Starclan for them to look over his clan as they left their home in search for a new one. After visiting the dirtplace the clan leader positioned himself close to the camps entrance and waited for the clan to awaken and join him.

Waking at the affectionate touch of her mate, Soaringflower let out a soft sigh. Today was the day they would say one final goodbye to the place she had known as home for as long as she was able to remember. And in truth she didn't want to, in silence the pretty calico followed her mate from the den and came to sit beside him. Still limping heavily from her wounds, but she was on the slow road to recovery and was growing even plumper with the lives she carried. She could only hope her kits would wait until they reached their new homes before they came into the world. She sat beside him, nuzzling close to her mate with a sad purr.

Leopardfrost stretched from within his nest inside of the warriors den, his long legs spreading out of his nest and into Arcticstrikes. He then purposefully pressed his paws against his brothers back to wake him up. Hearing a soft growl the tom withdrew his paws and stood up. Flicking his brother with his tail as he left the warriors den Leopardfrost looked about him to take in the sight of his home one last time.

PoolingWater had been up fir a while, her fur prickling in anticipation to leave. When she saw CreekStar at tge entrance she padded over to him and sat down, curlimg her tail around her paws. "You're doing the right thing CreekStar. We'll all be fine as long as we work together and help each other ever step of the way." The she-cat wanted to make sure her leader wouldn't regret his choice.

FallenDew had been awake in her den for a while. She had found a vine the day before and had weaved together some branches and ferns and used the vine to hold her now pouch like structure around her neck as she placed the herbs she had managed to find inside it.

Sunfeather had been perched at the edge of camp in a tree looking out over the forest longingly. Sad to leave her home behind but excited for the adventure before them the golden she-cat made her way down at the sight of the other waking. Seeing a couple of cats already gathered at the camp entrance she made her way and sat herself down next to her friend Poolingwater. The shecat was grateful to no longer be sick but she still did feel slightly weak however Sunfeather did not let that hinder her.
Ivysong woke to a small pain in her belly causing her to jump. She knew that it was a little more than just a kick from her kits but the queen did her best to not think about it. 'You stay in there just a while longer', she thought to her kits. Today was the day they were to leave and Ivysong was anxious to leave. Giving a big yawn the queen leaned over and began to lick her belly to try and ease the pain she had felt.
Arcticstrike finally decided to get up after laying there for a minute after his brother had awakened him. Sitting up he gave his white and striped pelt a quick grooming before standing on all fours. Once outside the den the white tom did his best to stretch his wounded hind leg to help get the stiffness out and he winced in pain as he did it. He knew that it was good for his leg to stretch and he started to growl and it stretched it a final time before limping over to stand next to Poolingwater and Leopardfrost.
Creekstar blinked thankfully to Poolingwater. Her words of encouragement were much needed, "Thank you I needed to hear that", he responded as he let his tail wrap around Soaringflower as she took her spot at his side.

Nettlemask awoke beside his mate and sat up abruptly, stretching out he offered his shoulder to the pretty shecat so she would be able to use it to get up without too much excursion. Licking her between the ears, he asked with a careful and worried tone of voice when he noticed something didn't seem entirely right with the shecat he adored. Burrying his nose deep into her fur with a rumbling purr, licking at her swollen belly. "We'll find you a safe home little ones," he swore solemnly as he led her from the nursery.
Soaringflower licked her mate's ear as she settled comfortably beside him, favouring her leg but trying not to make a big deal out of the fact she was in pain, knowing a lot of her clan currently were.

FallenDew padded from the medicine cats den and over to the gathering group of cats. Seating herself she waited for the rest of the clan to join them.

Ivysong let her mate help her up and she walked at his side as they made their way over to where the rest of the group had started to gather. The queens belly swayed as she walked and once they reached the group she sat down letting her belly rested on the ground comfortably.
Creekstar watched as everyone joined them and then stood up. "Okay everyone. We are going to do this together as one. We will be traveling to Star Cave to seek guidance from Starclan and then we will journey forth from there." The dark toms voice rang out clearly among the group so that all could hear him. "I would like to move as fast as possible out of the territory to make sure we do not run into the wolves. After Star Cave we can move at a more comfortable pace, but I would like to get everyone out of the territory as fast as possible.

Soaringflower settled beside her mate and watched the clan flood around her in silence. Her tail tip twitching in a nervous manner as she waited to set off, she pressed close to him though was careful to remain in the shadows and not interrupt her mate as he stood before their clan. She wrapped her tail around the slight swell to her stomach and watched her clanmates with a level of worry embedded into her expression, she could only pray that they would all make it out of here alive and safe.
Nettlemask sat close to his mate, pressing close to her so she didn't need to do anything that wasn't absolutely necessary. Waiting with a level of eagerness, desperate to get out of the confines of camp and the territory they had now deemed as dangerous. The need to keep his mate and unborn kits safe overruling just about every other thought that enterred his mind in that moment.

Should we wait for bramble to reply??))
PoolingWater nodded before padding over to where her mate was still asleep. She prodded him with her paw. "WolfShadow, get up. It's time for us to go." Her voice was soft and full of love but her tail tip twitched impatiently.
--
FallenDew stood and got the pouch comfortable around her neck. It She had her head, neck and front right leg through the vine as to keep the pouch from moving to much and then raised her voice to the gathered cats. "I would like to say my thanks to all those that helped me to gather these herbs the past few days. We did manage to find raspberry leaves and borage for when SoaringFlower and IvySong kit and some dock and catmint to treat wounds and sickness. I wouldn't have found it all without your help."
--
RosePaw looked around quickly, his claws digging into the ground slightly when he didn't see CurrentPaw or PebblePaw. CreekStar wouldn't leave with out them... right?

(Sorry was watching my friend fly the plane he’s been working on)
Mosspebble yawned as she exited the warriors den, feeling the light of the sky hit her eyes causing her to squint briefly as they adjusted. She solemnly followed her clanmates, giving a brief look back at the camp.
Pebblepaw and Currentpaw exited the apprentice den, looking to Creekstar for guidance as they followed close to their sister.

(( Alrighty lets get the show on the road ))
After doing a headcount and seeing that everyone was finally gathered together Creekstar spoke. "Okay everyone here is how we are going to do this. Queens will be in the middle and apprentices", Creekstar then looked to Rosepaw, Currentpaw and Pebblepaw. "You will be in the middle with the queens helping them in any way that they need. They are carrying the furture of Hollowclan and need to be protected. Stay by their sides no matter what. Fallendew if you would stay with the queens to keep an eye on them we would be grateful." The clan leader then turned to his warriors, " Warriors I would like you to surround them and make sure that there are no open gaps. I need two strong warriors to bring up the rear and I need two faster warriors to run ahead of the group to make sure the path ahead is safe. The rest of you take up position on the flanks."
Leopardfrost stood up and looked at Creekstar. "I am fast Creekstar let me be one of the cat who goes ahead of the clan", the tom said loud enough for his leader to hear. Not only was he wanting to be useful but the leopard spotted tom was not a fan of large crowds and felt as if he could be best used as a scout.
Ivysong looked to her mate longingly disappointed that he wouldn't be traveling next to her but she knew he had to do his duty to the clan. Giving him a couple of licks as if to tell him she would be okay she then glanced at the apprentices Rosepaw specifically since he was the largest of them, just about the size of a warrior but slightly smaller. She felt it would be good to have him at her side just incase she needed to lean on him for help.

PoolingWater stood now and padded over before looking at her leader, loyalty shining in her eyes. "I'll take up the rear and keep a look out for if the wolves come after us before we leave the territory. IF they do, I'll lead them away. You all must go on if this happens though." She had determination in her eyes and she radiate strength as she stood, willing to give her life to keep her clan safe.
