Sweetberry-- [42 Moons][Warrior][Molly] Where - - Medicine Cats Den. With - - Skunkpaw. [~Skyblaze~ ] - -
As Skunkpaw crouched before her, she opened her maw to insist the black an white molly to move slowly. Yet, before she could even speak, her apprentice tumbled forwards, falling with a huff. Moving to Skunkpaw's side, she went to assist the little molly, yet forced herself to step back again when she hobbled back up on to her three strong legs. Circling the apprentice, she watched her crouch again, this time more slowly. Though, she only half crouched. Nodding her head slightly, she waited for Skunkpaw to insist she could do better, before moving in closer.
Sweetberry moved in front of her determined apprentice and tucked her paw close to her body. She'd practiced this many times before, and found it finally useful to know how to work with three legs. "Learning a hunters crouch on three legs can benefit in many ways. It's the beginning of learning how to fight on three legs." Crouching low, she shifted her paws to balance gracefully on her three legs. Her belly was slow low, it almost brushed the ground. "Focus on one thing, keep your gaze locked on it. But keep your mind solely on your balance. Focus on keeping your weight even between the three legs. Don't put too much weight on one paw."
Frostpaw - - [9 Moons][Apprentice][Molly] Location - -Apprentices Den. With - - Sandpaw [~Skyblaze~ ]- - She gazed warmly at the sandy yellow tom for a moment, as he spoke. Her thoughts trailed off to what his name might be and she couldn't help but pipe up. "Sandstrike. Sandstreak. Sandrunner. Sandstone." She finally stopped and gave a small chuckle. Curious to the max as to the names they would be given. While Sandpaw was only two moons away from his warrior name, she had another three moons to go. The tom would be a warrior a whole moon before her. "What am I gonna do when I have a whole moon before I'm a warrior with you." She gave a shake of her head, before turning her gaze back to the leader and Cobrastorm. Her gaze grew curious even more, blue eyes peircing where Pecanpaw interrupted their mentors and called the leader into her den with Dewdrop. "I wonder what's happening there."
Her mind snapped back to Sandpaw as the tom mentioned them getting to train Nightstar's apprentices. Eyes widened and she flicked her bushy tail with excitement. Nudging him, she couldn't help but rumble with a thick purr. "Can you imagine. Us two. Getting to train their kits! We'd be the best mentors. Training apprentices to hunt just as well as us." She puffed out her chest at her words, ears perked up high.

Dewdrop numbly took a seat inside her leaders den, indeed unable to find the strength to lift her head. Instead she spoke softly to floor, her ears pressed flat against her head and tail tucked tightly around herself.
“I’m with kits.” The words were so short, so soft and yet so damning. They felt like ice slipping through her teeth, numbing her mouth and tongue till she was sure she’d be unable to speak ever again.
The weight of Nightstar’s gaze was crushing even if she didn’t know what expression her leader wore. She didn’t need to, she knew what this meant.
———
Swansong trembled everywhere her body wasn’t locked tight. The shock numbed her even as that yawning pit inside enveloped her in darkness.
Beside her Scorchstreak was just a russet blur, his color washed out like everything else. Still it was familiar and instinctively she swung her head towards it, tucking her head against his chest. The movement was stiff and jarring in appearance and Swansong gritted her teeth against it, able to imagine how she looked.
Hot shame washed through her even as a small trickle of relief joined it. Out of all the cats who could have seen her thrashing about like a fish... she was glad it was him.
Scorchstreak infuriated her but... he had a gentle heart.
Tears stung her eyes and a strangled noise escaped her maw. “What’s happening to me?”
The fit hadn’t truly passed and she felt it, like toeing a hole in the dark. A huge drop awaiting her patiently. Still even a good while after her body was locked up in certain places, her right foreleg, her hind right leg, her left paw, and her neck. It felt as through sticks had been shoved inside her, holding her taught.
“Scorchstreak.” She begged, her eyes blown wide in panic as she tried to make the world focus, tried to regain some control over herself. “What’s happening?” Her voice was bordering on hysterical as she pushed her head even tighter to him.
———
Bearswipe listened quietly, his eyes now on the rolling waves and stormy sky. He hummed softly once Walnutpaw was done, unsure of exactly what to say.
After a moment his mind drifted to Walnutpaw’s family. “Even with your siblings?” He asked, the tom oblivious to the inner turmoil of Scorchstreak’s family.

Nightstar - - [32 Moons][Leader][Molly] Where. - - Leaders Den With - - Pecanpaw/Dewdrop - -[Fallenleaves ]
For a moment, all was still in the leaders den. Every inch of the dark hollow dug under the roots of a large oak, was filled with complete and utter silence. Shock was coursing through the calico leader as she stared blankly at her medicine cat. Had she heard correctly.? Her beloved medicine cat, the one she trusted the most in her clan, was expecting kits.? Maw opened and body stiffer than a stick, Nightstar found herself struggling to answer. Her mouth had grown dry and her words stuck in her throat. Feelings started to consume her, suffocating her, making it hard to breathe.
It wasn't until Pecanpaw stepped forwards to speak, that the molly reacted. Yet, the reaction was one of pure anger and disbelief. No one had ever seen the calm and respectful leader, lash out at anyone, especially not her medicine cat. But here she stood, legs stiff, fur bristling, towering over the pale golden molly. Her ears were tight against her head and her tail lashed behind her. If one didn't know any better, they'd believe the calico molly was going to attack her. Claws dug deep into the ground and her lips drew back to reveal two rows of sharp white teeth. A snarl erupted from Nightstar as she attacked her medicine cat with her words.
"YOU WHAT!? How dare you, Dewdrop. You knew the rules of being a medicine cat. How dare you betray your clan that way. You are an absolute disgrace to Leafclan!" The towering stopped and the calico molly started to pace before the two medicine cats, tail lashing so fiercely, it was surprising it didn't fly off the leader. Her head shook as the hisses and spits left her body, claws leaving gouges in the dirt flooring of her den. "How dare you betray my clan this way. Your clan. How dare you abandon your duties. That explains so much. You left your APPRENTICE. Pecanpaw, to deal with so much trauma in this clan! So many times I stuck up for you, as did your apprentice, and you were off with some..Some tom."
Her amber eyes flashed with such a fire like rage as she turned on the medicine cats again. "Who is it!? Which warrior do you bare kits with!?" She spit each word like it was poison on her tongue, disgust on her face. A reaction that even sent a twinge of shock through the leader herself. Yet, her hurt and betrayal caused more rage than ever. How would she ever trust another again.?
Pecanpaw- - [11 Moons][Medicine cat Apprentice][Tom] Where. - - In Leaders Den. With - - Dewdrop-Nightstar [Fallenleaves ] Pecanpaw almost cowered as Nightstar turned on his mentor, yet the russet brown tom forced himself to stand straight, gaze serious. He flickered his ears slightly, forcing himself to remain silent while Nightstar paced, lashing out with a sharp-tongue. In a moment when she had her back turned, the young tom slipped closer to Dewdrop. His fur brushed hers as the calico leader turned towards them once more. When she questioned about the father, it was Pecanpaw's turn to speak. Giving his mentor a comforting touch with his tail, he stepped forwards until he was mere inches from Nightstar.
"Now, that's absolutely enough, Nightstar. Dewdrop knows her wrongs better than anyone. She will already face her judgement with Starclan, she doesn't need ours as well." He paused and gave Nightstar a stern look, one the usually anxious tom had never given before. He held a new authority about him, a confidence that had grown in the last moon alone. "I don't think it will do anyone well to know the father. If Dewdrop wishes to share it in time, she may. But until then, we don't get to question her."
The look her receieved from Nightstar was one of absolute disbelief and annoyance. Like she hadn't expected him to defend Dewdrop and her sins to the clan and their ancestors. Yet, the flaming calico molly backed down and her fur started to flatten. Her gaze turned as cold as ice and her voice followed. An empty and hollow sound, hitting his ears.
"Very well. I will not question you any further. However. You will step down as Medicine cat of Leafclan. I expect you to take Pecanpaw to the Starcave and name him as a full medicine cat. Immediately. You will take a patrol with you. Walnutpaw, Sunflowerpaw and Snowpaw and their mentors, Bearswipe and Wildmane and Lightfall." Her gaze grew serious, showing she was not going to change her mind. Suddenly, realization flashed in her mind. Bearswipe only had three working legs. He would not be able to make the journey. "Unfortately, Bearswipe will not be able to make this journey with Walnutpaw. So It'll just be Lightfall and Wildmane with the three apprentices."
Pecanpaw's eyes widened in horror at Nightstar's words and he looked back at Dewdrop, mouth widening in a meow of protest. He felt his fur start to prickle along his shoulders and all his insecurities arose once more. "Wait..Wait. I..I'm not ready to be a full medicine cat. Let alone be the only medicine cat. Dewdrop. Tell her.." The grief and anxiety was thick in the young toms voice as he turned to Dewdrop, begging her to fight the leaders decision.

Scorchstreak- - [47 Moons][Warrior][Tom] Where - -Training. With - - Swansong [ Fallenleaves ] As Scorchstreak held a paw against the trembling molly's shoulder, his heart ached. He watched her struggling, her choking cries hitting his hears like knives. His breath caught in his throat as she asked what was happening to her. For a moment, her eyes were wide and panicked, but then her head was buried against his thick furred chest. Instinctively, he wrapped himself around the dirty white molly, wrapping his paw around her flank to keep her as still as he could. Another panicked and hysterical cry came from her as she questioned him again. Her voice begging him to help her.
His voice caught in his throat as he watched her struggle, knowing there was nothing he could do. All he could do was lay with her, until it stopped. Memories flashed over his eyes like it was just yesterday. He had been an apprentice, his first day of training, taking care of the elders. An older molly, Miststorm had been her name, had been joking around with him one moment, then seizing in her nest the next moment. Her eyes had rolled, her head had stuck up, the same panicked cries and gurgles escaping her maw. Her legs had thrashed with the spasms that overtook her body.
He'd been so scared that day and had ran for the medicine cat. Who had taken him back to the den to show him what to do if it happened again. A 'Seizure' she had called it. Something that couldn't be controlled and one must stick with the feline during the incident. She'd shown him how to lay with them, try and protect their head, murmur encouragement. But the one thing she had insisted, was that the feline having the seizure to not get up. To be forced to lay still until it completely passed. And afterwards, they would be exhausted, the world would seem fuzzy, wouldn't make sense.
Snapped from his memories, he gazed upon the frantic and stiff molly, his heart throbbing against his chest. He flattened his ears tightly against his head and licked her face gently. His voice was softer than it'd been in a long time. A gentle warmth that filled his encouraging gaze. "I'm here, Swansong. It's going to be okay. It's going to pass. Just work through it. Know I am here. I'm right here." He licked her face a few more times, tail running along her flank. His own flank was matted in mud now, his body soaked. "You're having a seizure. I know someone that use to have the same issue. It's something that I can't stop. But I can do my best to help you through, Just try and relax. Rest. Don't struggle."
Walnutpaw - - [11 Moons][Apprentice][Tom] Location - -Warriors Den With - - Bearswipe. [Fallenleaves ]- - A small chuckle escaped the younger tom as he listened to the soft hums that escaped his mentor. It was nice to hear him make the calming noise. It wasn't until he questioned him about his family, that Walnutpaw stiffened slightly. He glanced at Bearswipe, before staring at his paws. A soft shrug came from the toms shoulders. "I'm not close to Scorchstreak. In my opinion, he's the one that chased our mother off. Useless. He could have stopped her from abandoning us. And Pecanpaw is a medicine cat. We were never very close. Almondpaw is the glue that holds us together. But even she is closest to Pecanpaw. I choose to be alone. I like my solitude. And they are all just a reminder that our mother didn't want us."
For a moment, silence consumed them again and he flicked the water from his ears. His fur was soaking wet now, and a chill had crept over his bones. Though he wasn't sure if it was from the wind or from the subject of his family. After a moment, he shook out his wet fur. "We should probably get back. Before anyone's looking for me. I'm sure they'll expect me to do something today." He grumbled slightly at the thought, not wanting to lose time with the brown tabby tom. It felt like a shame that the warrior couldn't be out with him, training, hunting, patrolling.

Skunkpaw | Apprentice | Forest | Sweetberry (♥𝔉𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱ℜ𝔬𝔰𝔢♥)Though Skunkpaw didn't turn to look at her mentor, her ears flicked to signal she had heard. She was too busy concentrating on the tree in front of her to reply. Blue eyes narrowed slightly in consternation, but it worked. Slowly, her knees stopped shaking as her weight evened out. It took a moment, but even her paw unfurled to hover above the ground, rather than remain tucked against her belly. She shook slightly, but as she maintained focus on the sturdy oak, she remained stable. Though it looked a bit awkward, she had managed an acceptable hunter's crouch. Whiskers twitching in satisfaction, she straightened up. "I did it!" She mewed triumphantly, tail wagging excitedly. "I can't wait to show Frostpaw! She's gonna be so-" She cut off abruptly and her face fell, as she remembered that she and her sister weren't exactly on speaking terms. Her tail drooped and she was silent for a second, but when she raised her head, her gaze was neutral. "I'll keep at it, and make it work." She finally mewed, her tone giving nothing away. Yet, as she did so, she turned back in the direction of the camp. Sandpaw | Apprentice | Camp | Frostpaw (♥𝔉𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱ℜ𝔬𝔰𝔢♥)(I'm glad you like it! Sandstrike sounds really cool as well!) "Really? You don't want at least one moon where you're the best hunter in the Clan?" Sandpaw asked with mock skepticism, though the thought of being in the warrior's den for a moon definitely felt strange to him as well. Of course, there was a slight sense of satisfaction of having gotten there first. There would always be that streak of competition. But the bite of it was quickly being overtaken by other feelings. He straightened up and then flattened himself to the ground, tail sticking out so he looked like a weasel, and pointed his snout in the air. "Now look here, young 'paw!" He began in a self-important caricature of a mentor. "When I was your age, I caught three times that number of mice! You'll have to do better than that!" Then, a snort of laughter broke the tom's character as his comical squat gave in, and he sprawled on the ground. Lightfall | Deputy | Warrior's Den Sleeping until needed.

As the shouting began Dewdrop bowed her head further, even as the fur along her shoulders bristled. Yes, she understood the rules of being a medicine cat. A reality Sheba’s the truly understood as a kit when she excitedly accepted her mentors proposal that she become his apprentice. Even her parents had believed she was born for the role, with her sweet heart and caring soul.
Yet Dewdrop had realized too late the limits it would have one her life. She could never have a mate, caring for someone in completion. Totally and utterly.
Instead she had to hold the cats she cared for at paws length, lest Starclan grow jealous.
Dewdrop felt her nose wrinkle in disgust even as her eyes stung. She hadn’t understood the role she was rushed into, that she had rushed into. This was the price of all her mistakes.
When Pecanpaw spoke up in her defense the curling of her lip eased and her chest ached. Pecanpaw was too good to be caught up in this. Even her earlier thoughts of him, attacking him, she felt guilt over. As he leaned into her she did the same to him.
When her leader finally came to a decision and gave her orders... Dewdrop felt her sorrow and anger curdled into despair, a despair that was matched by her apprentice.
Finally she lifted her golden head and met the panicked gaze of Pecanpaw. “Come, it will be okay. Just as you said.” Standing on trembling legs she curled her tail around him to guide him out. Never once meeting Nightstar’s gaze.
———
Scorchstreak’s muttering into her ear sounded far off yet still she clung to it, like a lifeline in the dark. Though she would be loath to admit, his voice was a light, warm sound to her, even through the words missed their mark. She caught snippets, something about passing, a word she didn’t recognize, and finally what she appreciated most was his muttered ‘I’m here.’
Swansong tried to reign herself in, breath through the panic but the loud rasping drags of her breathing only set her further on edge. Spasms rippled along her flanks as certain parts of her began to relax, the sensation of ants crawling across her pelt became pronounced as feeling trickled back into her body.
Scorchstreak’s warm grounded her and she shivered against him, too shaken to care or even be aware of the vulnerability she was showing him. Not once in her life had she ever been so desperate for another cats touch, comfort, and voice. It was a buffer against the fear and darkness swirling in her mind as she tried to grasp the situation.
“Stay with me.” Swansong mewed unconsciously, quietly into his fur, eyes screwed shut as she tried to calm herself.

Nightstar - - [32 Moons][Leader][Molly] Where. - - Leaders Den With - - Lightfall/Wildmane/Cobrastorm - -[Fallenleaves ~Skyblaze~ Taiyou]
Nightstar's own nose wrinkled in the disgust and betrayal she felt from her Medicine cat. She held Pecanpaw's gaze with one of ice, showing her disapproval. She didn't speak another word at the apprentice was led out of her den, with Dewdrop's tail wrapped around him. He seemed defeated as he was pulled away, his thick feathery tail dragging in the dusty floor of her den. It wasn't until they had disappeared that her shoulders sunk and her head dropped. She stared at her paws, ears flattening against her head once more. She couldn't help but wonder, was this part of the prophecy that had been shared with her.? Did all the dangers that had befallen her clan, act as a punishment from their ancestors. A second medicine cat of Leafclan, betraying their clanmates. While Dewdrop's sins were no where near as horrible as the murderous medicine cat from the past, it was another shame to Leafclan's name. Another betrayal. Another wrong against the ancestors and their rules. It was a shame, and the young leader herself felt as if she'd failed her clan. Her stomach twisted at the thought of telling her clanmates that Dewdrop would no longer be their medicine cat. Sharing the news that she was carrying kits. They'd blame her instantly for the darkness that had befallen them. They'd lash out. They'd want her banished. And yet, Nightstar didn't know if she could turn her back on the molly. Not when she had a belly full of kits. It's make her no better than the medicine cat that had wreaked havoc through Leafclan long ago.
Taking a deep breath, the calico molly shoved her way from her den. She pushed past her mate, giving him a sad look, before striding to the warriors den. Pushing inside, the molly padded up to her deputy and gave her a few jabs in the rib. Her tone was tight and empty as she addressed Lightfall. "Get up. You are to take Wildmane, Snowpaw, Walnutpaw and Sunflowerpaw to the Starcave with Pecanpaw and Dewdrop. Immediately. The two will have herbs for you." She waited for the molly to sit up before speaking again, her voice low and urgent. While she was being quick and blunt about it, she just wanted her deputy to know what was happening before she made the trip. "Pecanpaw is to receive his full name and become Leafclan's medicine cat. I've just been informed that our medicine cat is expecting kits. Dewdrop will be forced to step down when they return. I want you to make sure they get there and back, safely. Do you understand.? And please. Keep this to yourself. Pecanpaw is already anxious and devastated enough, I don't need his journey to be tough as well."
Without waiting for her deputy to answer, she turned tail and slipped out of the warriors den. Flashing a look to where Wildmane was, she twitched her ears. "Wildmane. You will accompany your apprentice, Walnutpaw, Snowpaw and Lightfall in taking Pecanpaw and Dewdrop to the Starcave. This is a big moment for your apprentices. A big step in the apprenticeship. I trust you to keep everyone safe." She gave a curt nod, before heading to her den. Without speaking a word to anyone, she tapped Cobrastorm on the head to her tail, signaling for him to follow, before she slipped inside and settled into her nest. Her eyes were weary and she set her head on her paws, waiting for the tom to join her. She had high hopes that he wouldn't ask her about anything and would continue their discussion from earlier. She had asked him about taking a journey to the Starcave, which she still intended to do, even more now. And them being the mentors to Flameheart's kits when the time came.
(So I kind of moved quickly with this post. Taiyou You can respond with Cobra whenever now. However you want. If you want to pick up their conversation where it left off or pester her about what just happened. ~Skyblaze~ I'm making a post for Pecanpaw now, which is going to skip the whole group to the Starcave. You can respond with Lightfall there however you like. If you want to reflect back on her hearing Nightstar's words and gathering up the group and getting them to the Starcave or not is up to you! Just wanted you to know there will be another post before you respond! We are moving pretty quickly. Just to get this moving.)

Pecanpaw- - [11 Moons][Medicine cat Apprentice][Tom] Where. - - The Starcave With - - Dewdrop-Wildmane(Sunflowerpaw)-Lightfall(Snowpaw & Walnutpaw) [Fallenleaves ~Skyblaze~ ] Pecanpaw had allowed his mentor to pull him out of the leaders den, but his protests had continued all the way to the medicine cats den, where the two prepared traveling herbs for their clanmates. Yet, nothing his said would get Dewdrop to fight Nightstar's decision. Did she truly believe that he was ready to be the only medicine cat of Leafclan.? He would be the youngest one to ever be named. Usually Medicine cats did not receive their name for some time, even after the 12 moon mark that warrior apprentices would achieve their warrior names. After trying for many many moments to convince Dewdrop that this wasn't the right call, he finally grew quiet and took the traveling herbs to each member of the patrol.
When each member had gathered, including Walnutpaw, who had been informed of the last minute journey to the Starcave, Pecanpaw gave a finally desperate look to the pale gold molly beside him, before the two of them walked side by side out of the camp. The patrol kept around them, but gave them their own space. No one talked the entire way, traveling quickly and urgently to the canyons where they shared tongues with their ancestors. The journey took some time, but to the tom himself, he felt like it was a blink of an eye and a couple trots. Now, as they looked up the canyon to where the cave was, his ears flattened and his tail drooped. He wasn't ready for this. Any other moment, he would have been excited. But now, he was devastated. Getting his full name, meant that Dewdrop would no longer be his denmate, his mentor, his friend.
With a deep breath, he led the molly up the pathway that led to the cave. Each pawstep was heavy and stung. He kept his head high, forcing his mind to relax. Once reaching the cave, his delicate russet paws slipped into the dips of many paws before him. He gulped, before setting in front of the Sacred rock. Now was the moment his mentor would give him his full name, before he shared tongues with Starclan. Anxiety formed in his chest as he gazed at her. Would Starclan accept him.?
Snowpaw - [9 Moons][Apprentice][Molly] Where. - -Shimmering pool. With - - Lightfall.- And others. [~Skyblaze~ ]
Shock had flooded over Snowpaw when Nightstar had woken Lightfall. The deputy had not slept long. Yet, it wasn't soon after the leader left the warriors den, that Lightfall had gathered her and the others up for a patrol to the Starcave. Excitement had burst through the little molly at first, but as the journey started and their flanks grew wet, disappointment had crossed her face. She didn't quite enjoy getting wet, like quite a few of her clanmates. The journey had been long, trudging through the wet and slightly muddy forest. And from the looks on Lightfall's, Dewdrop's and Pecanpaw's faces, something serious was going on. Yet, the little white molly kept her maw shut and walked close to Lightfall. Once reaching the canyons, the patrol stopped, allowing thr two medicine cat's to travel up to the cave and be alone. Walnutpaw had placed himself outside of the cave, not minding the rain at all. He simply turned his gaze to watch over them all, making sure no danger befell them.
Now she was hiding among some bushes with Lightfall. Wildmane and her apprentice, Sunflowerpaw were a little ways away. Leaning against her temporary mentor, she glanced at the molly, blue eyes full of sympathy. "So much for getting some rest, huh.?" She paused, before pushing her nose into buisness that wasn't really hers. "Did Nightstar tell you the urgency in coming out in this weather.?"
Walnutpaw - - [11 Moons][Apprentice][Tom] Location - -The starcave With - - Everyone else. [Fallenleaves ~Skyblaze~ ]- - Not gonna write a big ole post for him. He's here though, if you need to mention him or want to interact. Sitting watch outside the Starcave.
Sunflowerpaw- - [10 Moons][Apprentice][Molly] Where - -Shimmering pool. With - - Wildmane.-Others [Fallenleaves ~Skyblaze~ ] As they finally reached the canyons, Sunflowerpaw couldn't help but give a sigh of relief. She cowered among the protection of a nearby bush, eyes watching as Walnutpaw took place outside the Starcave. The medicine cats had just disappeared within the dark opening. Glancing around, she shook herself out, irritation flooding in her eyes. "What was so urgent that we had to travel in the rain. I've been wet all day long." While the little molly never usually complained, she was exhausted, from her morning fishing and then traveling to the Starcave. Not to mention, the chilly rain made her uncomfortable. After a moment, she shook her head and gave another sigh. "I'm sorry. I know it's important when they need to speak with Starclan. I'm just tired of being wet." She gave a soft smile. "One of the biggest steps of apprenticeship."

(( tbh i dont want to read through all this! I think I'll just take the small recap you gave me and try to jump in without disrupting the flow of anything lol
alright... rosepaw fell out of a tree and hurt himself so he's currently recovering in medicine cat den, darkrose was on the list to be killed off so we can say that happened recently... I'll be keeping Rosepaw, Briarpaw, Stormpatch, and Molestep. I believe that would be dropping Brightwing and Darkrose. rip.
I assume Brightkit was given to someone else in my disappearance? )) (That all sounds good. And We’ll say Darkrose passed from sickness. And Brightwing maybe was killed by a badger.? Brightkit is just being Rp’s by Brindle and myself. I’m sure Brindle would be good with you taking her back over!)

Cobrastorm Warrior Leader's Den w/ Nightstar (♥𝔉𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱ℜ𝔬𝔰𝔢♥ ) Cobrastorm whiskers twitched in amusement at Nightstar, the calico she-cat was returning to her usually self so quickly after just losing a life of course with it being Nightstar, she didn’t allow anything to stop her for being there for the clan. At the mention of training apprentices again so soon after their current apprentice became warrior, Cobrastorm felt a little reluctant to agree at the moment although he enjoyed training Frostpaw and reflected on their time together once she became a warrior but he wouldn’t mind taking a break from training another apprentice. Seeing Nightstar bring thrilled at the idea, he figured it won’t be so bad to train Flameheart’s kits after all it wouldn’t be another six moons anyway. Turning his attention Frostpaw and Sandpaw as Nightstar pointed it out, the two apprentices were a match for each other always competing against each and pushing each other to be better it wouldn’t be a surprise for them to share the same bond that him and Nightstar have now, soon the clan would have more capable warriors since it was nearing for many of the older apprentices to make their journey to Whispering Canyon. “Well…” As Cobrastorm readied to respond to Nightstar suddenly Dewdrop and Pecanpaw padded over to them, requesting Nightstar’s audience in her den and after seeing them disappeared into the den it seem to not take long for the three cats make their way out the den. Dewdrop and Pecanpaw’s expression were different then usual, the two medience cats were walking beside each with gloom and Nightstar eye’s held sadness as she passed by him to the warrior’s den to wake Lightfall and after Nightstar gave her orders to Wildmane and a group of apprentices, Cobrastorm got his paws to follow Nightstar inside her den as she beckoned him to join her. He couldn’t help but wondered what happen just now in the den, it had to something drastic to cause Nightstar to get so worked up. "So…what was that about?" He mewed. “Something from Starclan? As if we don’t have enough going on. What message are the raining down on us now?” Cobrastorm chuckled slightly trying to make light of situation with no idea of the truth.
Russet drew back as Ace shock out her pelt, what was the point when they are sitting around in the middle a storm and more rain was pouring down on them. Watching Ace closely, Russet moved his mouse closer to him grunting in disgust as it a little mud on it after falling into a puddle when Ace slam into him, he wasn’t going to allow her to take his catch no matter what even for Russet fighting for food to fill his belly was his least favorite but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t hesitate to attack someone if they tried to steal from him. At the mention of the clan, Russet rolled his eyes and his tail flicked in annoyance. “I met one of them in the meadow before. What about them?” He mewed dryly.
Twlightblaze Warrior Camp w/ Almondpaw Once back at camp, Twilightblaze drop off the fish she caught with Almondpaw ready to return to the warriors’ den to dry off when Almondpaw offered to share a fish with her. Twilightblaze didn’t see no reason they couldn’t share a meal together just like with sharing tongues, sharing a meal together with another cat was nice and as mentor and apprentice, it should feel kind of like accomplishment to eat beside each other as before long they would be sharing a den together. “ I have nothing else to do so why not?” Twlightblaze meowed looking for a place for them to settle before turning back to Almondpaw as she expresses her concern of being made a warrior. “ Don’t worry.” She placed her tail on Almondpaw’s shoulder. “ Nightstar hasn’t forgotten about you or the other apprentices, so much has happened to the clan so fast her attention had to place elsewhere. I’m sure you’ll make that journey soon enough and if not, we’ll work twice as hard to prove you are ready to be a warrior." Sorry this took so long, Life you know. Also I was think , Cobrastorm may not be so bias against Dewdrop or at least her kits cause his father if that makes sense. It was just an idea.)

Cinderblaze - Forest - Sharppaw (Fallenleaves )Cinderblaze glanced over to the cats as Sharppaw pointed them out, narrowing her eyes as she tried to recognize them. Once she didn’t she waved her tail in greeting and followed after them. “Seems we weren’t the only ones who had their training delayed by the rain.” She traveled quickly over logs and around bushes until the pair reached camp, shaking out her fur once she was inside. Then, the pale ginger warrior padded to the fresh-kill pile and set her kills down before mewing, “You can grab something from the pile once you give that rabbit to the elders, alright?” She grabbed a small thrush for herself and headed toward one of the trees that sheltered the camp, grateful to be out of the rain. Sakura - Her den - Shade, Angel (nimble )Sakura sighed, knowing that was what he would say. Of course they would add to their patrols, but it didn’t stop Sakura from thinking of ways they could overpower them. At his next comment, she grinned. His concern for her was sweet, but she wasn’t sure how to take it. “I’m fine,” she mewed. “I can handle a couple scratches from those clan cats.” She flicked her tail over her ear as she stood up. Her gaze flickered to her den, noticing Angel in the shadows. She motioned for the ginger and white she-cat to join them. Waspstrike - Forest - Morningdew, Lightningstrike (♥𝔉𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱ℜ𝔬𝔰𝔢♥ , Brindlebriar )Waspstrike eyed the undergrowth around them as he marked the border. He wanted to agree with both Morningdew and Lightningstrike, but he was sure some cats would still be trying to hunt. As they padded along to border, he couldn’t help but stop and check the air for scents even though not many could be detectable among the rain. “We could head back, but I’d like to get a bit more markers down before. The rogues might take the rain as an advantage.” While he knew the markers would probably just wash away, he didn’t want to go back to camp with that idea. “If we don’t find anything within a few tree-lengths from here, we’ll head back.” He threw down another scent marker and padded onward. (I’m fine with the patrol finding Russet and Ace. Also, welcome back renaissance!!)

(( gosh, these are so small as i try to wiggle my way back in. im sorryyy ))
Stormpatch | camp | open Stormpatch sat outside the warriors den, her black and white tail wrapped tightly around her body. She was staring absently ahead, lost in thought about the recent events. The clan has been having such... bad luck? One horrible event after another. She was starting to think Starclan had cursed or disowned them. With a sigh, she shifted to lay down in a more comfortable position and laid her head on her paws.
Molestep | camp | open Paws itching for something to do, Molestep was standing in camp and looking around with wide green eyes for someone to talk to. Perhaps find a partner to go hunting with. He spotted Stormpatch nearby but shook his head and went on scanning the area for someone else. She was a nice cat, but quiet and rather boring. Shifting restlessly on his paws, the gray tom's tail twitched with anticipation.
Rosepaw | camp | open Falling out of a tree was the most embarrassing and humiliating thing Rosepaw had ever done. The worse part was his paw was now messed up and he was stuck in the medicine cat den for Starclan knows how long. Grumbling to himself, the apprentice scrambled from his nest and began to hobble towards the exit into camp. He didn't want to lay here all day. He wanted to at least mingle in camp with his clanmates, even if it was a struggle to walk.
Briarpaw | camp | open Briarpaw was laying outside the apprentice den, curled up with her tail wrapped over her nose as she tried to take a nap. She was feeling down, instead of her usual upbeat self, and has just been laying around without the desire to get anything done. Likely due to the loss of her mentor, then her mother. Rosepaw would usually cheer her up but her brother got himself hurt and had to move to the medicine cat den. She felt kind of alone. She'd even been distancing herself from Walnutpaw, who she would never leave alone before.

(Oh, Ren! I forgot to mention. So we upped everyone's ages a couple moons now, since the rp has progressed. Do you want your characters to remain the same or be matched up. That would make Rosepaw 13 moons(but of course, we can say he got injured the day he was doing his warrior assessment.?) and Briarpaw would be 12 moons. We can do her warrior assessment and she can get her warrior name shortly.? This is up to you completely!)

(Good. Then we will do that soon. Maybe once Lightfall returns with the patrol at the Starcave. Nightstar will make the announcement about Dewdrop and then name Briarpaw a warrior, then officially name Snowpaw the apprentice to Lightfall.(Since her actually apprentice will be a warrior. Also. Walnutpaw and Briarpaw would be so cute together.)

(Taiyou, Also. I am absolutely for Cobrastorm being understanding to Dewdrop and her kits. Though no one will know who the father is until the kits are born and they recognize Snake in the kits. But him having a loner father could make him more gentle towards the family. Plus give Nightstar some guidance in being kinder to Dewdrop and the family.)

Dewdrop was cold, muddy, and beyond exhausted in every way possible. Mud stained her pale gold paws and belly, the slight swell noticeable with her fur slicked down as it was. She could feel Lightfall’s gaze on her most of the way here and it only made Dewdrop bristle. How long before they all turned on her? Called for her exile?
A shaky exhale at her side drew Dewdrop back into the moment, her blue eyes blinking several times as she refocused on the moonstone, the sight of it having sent her into a internal spiral. Slowly her eyes slid to the young tom at her side and his frightened fidgeting.
Pecanpaw had shown her kindness where most wouldn’t, or shouldn’t as a devoted medicine cat. It touched her, even beneath all the distress and anger she was feeling. Now she wanted to do the same for him. Show him how much faith she’d always had in him.
“Pecanpaw you have shown you’re kindness, faithfulness, and determination throughout these past moons of training. All the signs of a true Medicine Cat.” The words stung as they left her maw but she forced herself to hold his gaze and soften her eyes. To show him how even with the disaster this had all become, she truly meant what she said. Dewdrop’s next words came out soft and slow, her head ducking so she could touch noses with him. “Your gentle nature inspired my decision long before this moment. From now on you shall be known as Pecanfeather, as you will act as both a soothing touch and a shield against sorrow to ease all your clanmate’s troubles.” As her nose finally pressed against his a knot twisted deep in her stomach. “I hope you find happiness in your life Pecanfeather.”
———
Wildmane snorted at her apprentices attempt at being upbeat. Without responding she huddled close under the bush, doing her best to both find and share some warmth. Both of them were relatively thin and small she-cats, their muscle doing little to keep out the cold.
“It is important but you’re right to be irritated.” Wildmane herself scowled up at the cave. “None of this makes much sense.”

(Oh yay! I can't wait to do a dream with Starclan and Pecanfeather. Fallenleaves, If you are okay with it. I'd like to do a post of Pecanfeather speaking with Starclan, and then skip back to camp where Nightstar will be addressing the clan about Dewdrop and other things.)
