Briarpatch watched from below at the trunk of the tree, her own work done. She purred as she heard the satisfying crunch of prey. "Nice catch! It's like it's newleaf or something."

Spiritstar padded over to the rock pile and stopped in front of it, gazing around the clan. "It's time to send out the first of the patrols to the twolegplace. The first patrol will consist of Silvercloud, Skyflight, Jadefeather, and Firepaw. Wait at the border for the Thunderclan patrol, they should arrive by sunhigh. I pray to Starclan that the patrol is successful and you return with enough prey to hold a feast tonight. That is all." The leader padded back over to her den, settling outside it to send a prayer to Starclan.

"It's practically raining birds." Flarestorm smirked, before picking up the bird in his jaws and beginning his descent down the tree. He landed on his paws beside his mate, nudging her fondly before flicking her nose with his tail.
Jadefeather looked up quickly, but found herself understanding of why she would be chosen. It had been a long time since she had lived beyond Skyclan's borders, but she could never forget the first moons of her life where she had developed her fist survival skills. She padded towards the rest of the patrol.

Skyflight got up from where she was resting at the edge of camp and padded towards the entrance of the camp, nodding to Jadefeather. "I hope this goes well," she said quietly. She would much rather be up in the trees hidden than out in the open of the twolegplace.

Briarpatch touched her nose to his cheek just because she could now. "Think we can find any more prey? I'd like to take a turn. Gotta keep my skills sharp while I can."

Silvercloud let out a sigh when she heard her name first. Of course Spiritstar would pick her. After all their time in the twoleggedplace together, how could she not pick her? Silvercloud got up and padded over to Jadefeather and Skyflight. She tried not thinking of her time as Mitten the rogue.

"I guess this would be the wise group for a first patrol." Jadefeather admitted, looking at Silvercloud with a hint of understanding. Jadefeather had always been rather relieved that she was not the only cat in the Clan who hadn't been born here. Even so, she never doubted any of her Clanmates. She looked back at Skyflight and nodded. "In and out, it'll go just fine! At least, that's what I'm going to believe."

Briarpatch touched her nose to his cheek just because she could now. "Think we can find any more prey? I'd like to take a turn. Gotta keep my skills sharp while I can." "Want to switch and do the same tactic? Or do we want to try and fish out some prey on the high ledges?" Flarestorm offered, more than happy to do either if she wanted to.

Skyflight huffed out a laugh but forced herself to relax as they waited for Firepaw. Turning to Silvercloud she tilted her head, looking at the other she-cat, "What do you think of these patrols? Is there really that much prey to catch in the twolegplace?"
Briarpatch hummed quietly as she thought, "Doesn't really matter, but we can go over to the high ledges and see what we can find. Since I probably scared away all the prey around this area."

Silvercloud flicked her ear. "Of course. The twoleggednests are a breeding ground for rats and they put out feeders to attract birds. Trouble is, you have to watch out for other cats. Rogues and kittypets claim the twoleggedplace. They don't take kindly to Clan cats." She lightly shrugged. "Unless you run into Gregory. He enjoys meeting cats from all walks of life."

Firepaw flicked his ear in surprise when he was called for the twoleggedplace hunting patrol. He stood up and joined the three warriors quietly, ready to go.

Silvercloud nodded to Firepaw. She looked to the others. "We should get going. We can't let ThunderClan beat us to the border."

Skyflight smiled at Firepaw, before heading out of camp. "That does make me feel better Silvercloud. I've never been closer than I've had to be so I'm glad both of you are here for this first patrol."

Silvercloud sighed. She wasn't happy about being on the patrol. "Let's just go."

Warblerpaw rested on a sturdy branch that hung over the camp wall, his front leg dangling in the open air as he dozed, away from the watchful eyes of his mentor. The day was unseasonably warm, and it felt wrong to waste such prime napping weather.

Warblerpaw rested on a sturdy branch that hung over the camp wall, his front leg dangling in the open air as he dozed, away from the watchful eyes of his mentor. The day was unseasonably warm, and it felt wrong to waste such prime napping weather. Plumwillow crept quietly up the tree that Warblerpaw was currently dozing in. The mischievous she-cat inwardly giggled to herself. If Warblerpaw wanted to hide away to sleep, then surely he wouldn't mind a little company. After all, if she was going to be a mentor, she had to take it seriously, right? Eh, seriousness wasn't in her nature, but pranking her apprentice certainly was. She began to inch herself across a second branch that hung above the branch he was dozing on. Laying down and hanging her head over the side to look down at him, she gave a little grin and sighed dreamily. "Oh wow! It's like a day of greenleaf in leafbare! Perfect napping weather, yeah?" She crooned.

Warblerpaw jumped at the sudden voice of his mentor, startling so hard he slipped from the branch. He caught himself easily, swinging himself back up with ease.
"Plumwillow, hey!" he meowed, his voice cracking involuntarily. He cleared his throat quickly, smoothing the fluffy fur around his neck with a few licks. He sat on the branch he'd been laying on, his fluffy tail hanging down and swaying in the light breeze.
"Yeah, yeah it's great! What's, uh, what's up with you?" he asked casually.

"That's my name, yep!" Plumwillow popped the p and the end of her statement with a knowing and playful look, before she tilted her head and hummed. "What's up with me? Well! I'd say me is up with me! Seeing as I'm up on the branch above you! Speaking of which!" She stood to her paws and poised her legs, before hopping down onto the branch that Warblerpaw was on. She grinned. "Don't worry, I'm not going to split your whiskers or anything! Then I'd get Spiritstar and Slateheart on my pelt, and who would want that? Mmm. You're lucky I caught you first and not your parents." She winked.

Warblerpaw chuckled at his mentor's antics before rolling his eyes and flopping back down onto the branch with a sigh. "Ugh, yeah," he groaned. "Sometimes they can be a pawful. But anyway, you're my mentor, right? You should be able to split my whiskers all you want, leader's son or not!"
After a moment of pouting at the bark, he cracked a sly grin. "It really is the perfect weather for a nap, though."

"It really is the perfect weather for a nap, though." "That I am. A mentor! Your mentor. It's crazy how fast time flies by, I remember being right where you are right now, up in the trees with a paw in my name!" Plumwillow purred, before she quickly stood on her paws and conceded. "It's pretty nice! But you know what's nicer? Climbing one of the taller trees and looking out across the territory." She decided. "Want to give it a shot?"

"Sure, why not?" he said, stretching leisurely. "Where were you thinking?"
(so I initially created Warbler to be an older apprentice, is that okay or does he have to start as a new one? also I love plum omg)

Gives me a chance to rp her more too <3 ) “Well, if I was crazy, I would take you to the highest tree in Skyclan and see if you have what it takes to climb all the way up. But! I’m only half-crazy, because you’re not quiiiite there yet. Close! But that’s more during your last moon of training.” Plumwillow explained, approaching the trunk of the tree and skillfully leaping down to a lower branch. “Instead, let’s go out to the center of the territory and get a good tree there. I have some secret spots I can show you.” She offered excitedly.

"Really, only half?" he meowed, following Plumwillow down through the branches with ease, landing lightly on a large root that snaked across the ground in front of the camp wall. He straightened a crooked pinecone that was tucked into the woven branches before turning to his mentor with a dramatic sweep of his tail. "Let's get a move on, shall we? These secret spots are enticing."

It’s like it curls down towards the forest floor.” She described, scampering towards the camp entrance.

Beneath the canopy, where the sun couldn't break through save for in small spots, it was chillier, feeling much more like late leaf-bare. Warblerpaw fluffed his fur, trotting to catch up to his mentor. "Hey, Plumwillow," he began, a hint of mischief in his voice as he noticed that his eyes were almost level with hers. "Have you been shrinking? I swear last moon my head only reached your shoulder..."

“I should hope not! I worked hard to get my height, thank you!” Plumwillow gasped, aiming to match the tom’s energy as she flicked her tail and swatted his nose. “How about you stop growing a mouselength every morning, huh? I don’t know my father, but I blame him for my height.” She snorted.

Warblerpaw laughed loudly as he recoiled from the offending tail, a songbird startling in the trees high above. "You've got me there!" he meowed good-naturedly. "I like being tall, but I hope my legs don't always seem so ill-proportioned." With that, he high-stepped awkwardly for comedic effect. Resuming his normal strides, he noted that they had come closer to the center of the territory.

"Imperfections are the most perfect things we have. Makes us unique, and special." Plumwillow purred, her ever infectious optimism giving her a bright view of the world around her. "You'll get bigger, until everything works just right. That's kinda how growing works. Ooookay!" She suddenly stopped before looking right at one of the trees to the left of them. "Look! Come around the tree and look at this big branch! Isn't it odd?"

Warblerpaw paused for a moment, considering his mentor’s insightful words. Imperfections… He quickly shook his head, following her around the tree and gazing at the massive branch that seemed to come from the sky itself to touch the ground. “Wow!” he exclaimed, jumping right up onto the bough and giving it a good scratching. “Yeah, but it’s also kind of incredible.”
