Poppystar noticed the hungry look on Jasminepaw's face as she eyeballed her breakfast. How rude, she almost forgot about that! "Oh how rude of me to keep you from your meal," she purred, tail waving. "Just find Mintleaves when you're ready, I'll let her know you two are headed out."
Mintleaves sat nearby the nursery den, grooming her pelt. She didn't feel particularly keen on doing anything today, despite her inane responsibilities. The she-cat just wished the morning could last a little longer... "Mintleaves?" A calm voice interrupted the she-cat's routine. She looked over her shoulder to see Poppystar, and suddenly she was awake. "Poppystar! ... Good morning," she greeted, a bit suprised. The she-cat may be lazy but she wasn't stupid; she rose to her paws and dipped her head in acknowledgement. "What can I do for you?"
Poppystar had always found the formalities cats gave her when greeting her to be a bit jarring, considering how new she still felt to such authority. She sighed, touching her nose to Mintleaves' forehead. "No need for all that, Mintleaves. I just came to ask you a favor."
"Of course Poppystar, whatever you need!"
Poppystar felt a twinge of awkwardness being spoken to so formally, but she ignored it. "I need you to accompany Jasminepaw on her herb collecting this sunhigh. Make sure nothing...happens. Okay?" The dappled she-cat knew of the sudden increase in rogue appearances and prey thieves on the territory. She didn't dare send anyone alone out on patrol, let alone an apprentice.
Mintleaves nodded, understanding her leader's concern. "I'll keep an eye on her, don't worry," she promised with a smile, glancing past Poppystar at the young she-cat eating.

Fawndance turned to face Stagleap and nodded firmly, "Great idea! I was just thinking about hunting," She purred. It was perfect timing on his part, as she was just going to start looking for a cat to go with her. She refused to go hunting by herself, in fear of getting hurt and than being alone. "I think that we should go hunt by the elder tree. Yesterday I saw an obscene amount of squirrels and birds around there." She mewed, as she began to walk towards the entrance, not waiting to see if he was following. She didn't want to lose any time.

Needlepaw caterwauled in fear when Swiftwater pinned her down, and she struggled underneath his claws as she tried to kick his legs out from underneath him. "It- it's not my fault! Nighthawk made me do it! I didn't want to!" She squealed like a kit. She scrambled to her paws the moment her mentor crashed the Breezeclan tom off of her, her back arched. The round, dark brown tabby apprentice of the opposing clan cat threw himself at her, an exaggerated snarl on his face, but he was smaller than her and she was able to avoid his leap and she bowled him over with the strike of her paw, keeping her claws sheathed as she didn't have the heart to hurt such a young apprentice. Swiftwater howled with pain as Nighthawk tore the tip of his ear off, warm blood streaming down his ear. He was convinced the smoky tom was out for blood, if he hadn't managed to wriggle his small frame out of Nighthawk's grasp. "You foxhearts!" he spat, back arched and tail lashing. He felt a terrible stinging on his ear, swiping at it with a paw. Nighthawk flared himself out, appearing giant. He had a dangerous glare in his eyes as he only saw red. "Get your claws off my apprentice," he growled. The smoky tom glanced behind him as Needlepaw fended off the small apprentice. He scoffed. "No wonder all you Breezeclan cats do is steal prey and hide. Your fighting skills are crowfood!" Swiftwater gritted his teeth, looking at Cricketpaw. What did he say, don't do anything stupid! "Cricketpaw!" he beckoned the small tom back to him desperately.

Needlepaw ducked behind the safety of her powerful mentor, jeering after the fleeing Breezeclan warrior. "Y-Yeah! Get outta here!" She squeaked.
Cricketpaw blinked, his eyes widening when he saw the blood pouring from his mentor's ear. He gave a shrill yowl and he bound after Swiftwater, glancing behind him at the Mapleclan cats with fear once he had joined his side. "Your ear!" He mewed sympathetically. "Are you okay?"

Stagleap quickly bounded after his sister, his tail instinctively disappearing between his legs cautiously, until he was able to trot at her side. He was glad that she was hunting with him, but he was instantly worried -Elder Tree? That was kind of close to BreezeClan -what if he trespassed hunting one of those obscene amounts of squirrels and got attacked? or what if they ran into a rogue? He thought to voice his concerns, but instead ducked his head and bit his lip. "Yeah, okay, let's do that." he meowed, walking as close as possible, just in case a rogue popped out.

Nighthawk hissed, flicking Needlepaw with his tail. Now was definitely not the time for her to be speaking, he thought! He glared back at Swiftwater and Cricketpaw. "Next time I won't be so kind," he sneered, his fur raised enormously. He almost looked the size of a bear cub.
Swiftwater burned with embarrassment as he stood defeated, with his apprentice worrying for his sake. He gave Nighthawk a deadly glare. "I hope you Mapleclan dogs rot," he spat, rising wobbly to his paws as his whole body ached. He looked at Cricketpaw, eyes pleading for forgiveness, before nudging him back to camp with his nose. "Echostar will hear about this."

Cricketpaw hurried back in the direction his mentor had guided him, eager to get Swiftwater to a medicine cat.
Needlepaw felt her fur prickle at the Breezeclan warrior's parting words, dread gnawing at her belly. It was Nighthawk's fault! If he hadn't ordered her to steal prey, this wouldn't have happened! She had to tell Poppystar before Echostar could tell her, just so the story would be straight. "Th-Thank you, Nighthawk..." She mewed anxiously, knowing full well he would be blaming her, the victim, for all this. She braced herself, ready to get his sharp words for her over with.

Nighthawk huffed, releasing the tension from his body. He snorted through his nose, then turned to Needlepaw. Anger and disappointment was clear on his face. "I asked you to catch a rabbit. Just. One." he hissed. "And you got yourself caught. It's clear I have too much faith in you." He growled with annoyance, flicking his tail and leading the way back over the border.

Fawndance nodded to herself as they walked down the path. She perked her ears, listening to the leaves crunching as the two walked together. She shot a quick glance towards Stagleap and saw how closely he was walking towards her, and she figured he might be freaking himself out. She thought for a moment before speaking, not wanting to say the wrong thing, "I think we'll be okay." Fawndance turned her head towards Stagleap, and smiled in a reassuring manner."We wont be that close to Breezeclan, and there's nothing dangerous around the Elder Tree. It's just a tree." Fawndance didn't really know the best way to calm him down, but she would certainly try her best.

Needlepaw gasped, not ready to hear the words he had for her, as much as she had braced herself. It wasn't fair! "There wasn't any hares near the border! And it wasn't my fault some Breezeclan cats happened to be nearby JUST when I was over there!" She snapped, her fur prickling defensively.

He sighed, frustrated with the circumstances given to them. He knew, deep down, Needlepaw had a valid argument. But the tom was too stubborn to admit his supposed flaws. He looked back at the she-cat, his anger mostly diminished, now replaced with a grumpy fatigued expression. "Poppystar doesn't hear about this. Anyone asks and you just deny it," he remarked. He knew there would be fire and fury raised the next gathering regarding the matter, but if he simply played it off as an overreaction, everyone will just think Breezeclan is a bunch of harebrains. "Trust me, I'm telling you that for YOUR sake." Nighthawk continued back over the border, keen on finding the others and finishing up the patrol as quickly as he could help it.

Needlepaw followed Nighthawk, her tail drooping as she glared at him. She only saw his plan blowing up in their faces. At the very least, she had the right to tell Droppaw about it, and he couldn't stop her. "Why? Can't you see that backfiring? What if the other clans take Breezeclan's side at the next gathering, then what?" She asked sharply.

"Please. No one takes those flower-frolicking buffoons seriously," Nighthawk replied, a bit quickly, almost as a deflector. He wished the she-cat didn't ask so many questions and just did what she was told.

Needlepaw's nose wrinkled at his comment, thinking back on the mentor and apprentice they had fought against. They didn't seem like buffoons to her. She gave a half-hearted grunt, not really agreeing with his instructions, but not saying she didn't agree with him either. Either way, she knew she was going to end up with some cat clawing her ears off, just her luck.

Sure, she wondered what her mentor would be doing with her gone, but she didn't really want to push him any more. She darted off into the overgrowth, scenting for the other cats in the patrol as she made her way toward Stoneclan border like Thornfang had instructed them before they had split apart. She felt a shiver run up her spine as she thought about what might have happened if Nighthawk hadn't been there to protect her.

(I have Drizzlenose open!) Would you like to start? :3 )) Drizzlenose lay in a sunny spot that filtered through the trees in camp, comfortable to just watch the activity around camp before going out to hunt. She liked taking her time to do her duties now that she was a warrior. A low purr rumbled in her throat.

She liked taking her time to do her duties now that she was a warrior. A low purr rumbled in her throat. Smokefeather padded into camp with a large brown rabbit clasped in his jaws; his solo hunting mission had proved, as he'd hoped, to be successful.
Padding over to the fresh-kill pile, he dropped his prey in, trading it for a juicy finch. Casting a glance around, he spotted Drizzlenose lounging around in a patch of sunlight. He drew his gaze back to the pile and took a small mouse delicately in his teeth so it wouldn't bleed and made his way over to the young she-cat.
"Grd mmphing, Dwifleneeze." He tried to meow through the mouthful of fur and feathers, but failed miserably. With a cough he put them both on the sun-soaked earth and tried again. "I mean, Good morning, Drizzlenose." He pushed the mouse towards her and tucked into the finch. "Are you hungry?"

Drizzlenose blinked in surprise, feeling shy at being spoken to by the deputy of all cats. Her ears flushed pink. "Oh! H-Hi Smokefeather!" She meowed, sitting upright as quick as possible. She dipped her head gratefully at the mouse. "Wow, thanks. I mean, sure, I'm- I'm hungry..." She purred.

Look at Smokefeather, being the klutzy gentletom.. :3)) 👻videocassette👻 Smokefeather's nose twitched at her bashful attitude. Did I startle her? Does she not like me?.. or is it just because I'm the deputy? Casting those thoughts away, he added, "It is a nice day, isn't it?" Taking another bite of the finch, he realized why the she-cat had chosen this spot... you could survey the whole camp from here. Watching warriors and apprentices performing their tasks and activities had always seemed peaceful to him.
