Weaselkit looked around camp, wondering if another warrior would play with them. "Yeah, moss ball sounds good," she meowed to Wishkit. At Gazekit's comment though she, too, realized how hungry she was. "But let's eat first! Maybe a rabbit or a squirrel!" Foxkit nodded eagerly at the mention of food. "Or a fish!" he added. He wondered if they could just walk over to the fresh kill pile and grab something. Earlier Coalkit had done so too, after all.
Wolfkit shrugged when the others talked about what kind of prey they wanted but he had to agree with them, some food would be great right now. "Let's just walk over and try. I'm sure they'll let us eat something." Darkclaw was still sitting near the fresh kill pile. After a while he had just picked one of the voles. While he ate it he glanced at the playing kits every now and then. He paused to look at the fresh kill pile and meowed loudly enough for the kits to hear "Well, what do you know. There's a perfectly good rabbit on our fresh kill pile and no one is eating it. Good thing there are no hungry kits around!" He hoped it was alright to offer it to the kits despite not having found much prey today. Then again he could go out on another hunt later to make up for it. The warrior grabbed the rabbit and set it down again a few paces away from the pile so the kits could eat it without getting in anyone's way. Then he went back to finish his vole.
(So is Coalkit not capable of speech or does she simply choose not to talk?)

Coalkit nodded and the shrugged off the apprentice's annoyance. She took a final bite of the mouse and layed back licking her face. "Mmmmm" she purred.
"Yes they will." Snowdapple purred. "Once they get straightened out some by their mentors. They are pretty loud right now." She laughed a little.
Frostfeather nodded and grabbed her prey before taking off after Sakura. They passed past Basilwhisker on the way back to the camp. She paused to wave at him and then continued to the camp.

Wishkit nodded in thanks to the warrior and moved to eat.
Gazekit sat and waited for the others to start eating beforehe ran over to eat too.

(Ah, okay. Good to know, thanks ^^)
Weaselkit swished her tail and with a "Yes! We get rabbit!" she ran over to eat, trying to get as many bites as possible. Foxkit followed more slowly and mumbled a thanks before he sat down between Wishkit and Weaselkit. With a happy purr he tore into the rabbit. Wolfkit quickly joined the others at the rabbit. After getting a bite out of it he looked over to Weaselkit. "Slow down, there's enough for everyone," he told her before taking another bite. Darkclaw just flicked his ears and gave a small smile. He watched the kits for a while, then he got up to his paws again and padded towards the camp's entrance. A few steps away from it he paused and glanced back at the other cats in camp. He decided to wait for a bit in case someone wanted to go on a hunt too.

Wishkit took a fee bites and then sat back for a second. She had eaten her fill and was getting full. "Wow that was good rabbit." She said kicking out one leg and licking it.
Gazekit was happily munching on the rabbit.
(I wish I could go like 6 months without talking sometimes. Or 4 so far in Coalkit's case. I venture she ought to have talked by the time she becomes an apprentice) )

Good morning everyone. I feel like today is gonna be another good day. I sent out messages to everyone we haven't heard from asking if they planned on coming back. No responses yet but some of them have been online recently. If anyone is lurking and thinking about joining our clan, hello. My name is Dark and I am at your service.))
Snowdapple "Yes they will." Snowdapple purred. "Once they get straightened out some by their mentors. They are pretty loud right now." She laughed a little.
Wishkit and Gazekit Wishkit took a fee bites and then sat back for a second. She had eaten her fill and was getting full. "Wow that was good rabbit." She said kicking out one leg and licking it.
Gazekit was happily munching on the rabbit.
Coalkit Coalkit nodded and the shrugged off the apprentice's annoyance. She took a final bite of the mouse and layed back licking her face. "Mmmmm" she purred.
Turtlepool "They are getting really good at that." Turtlepool purred. "They took down that badger pretty fast. And now our hungry warriors eat their spoils." She said laughing. Her tail lashed back and forth as if she were excited.
Frostfeather Frostfeather nodded and grabbed her prey before taking off after Sakura. They passed past Basilwhisker on the way back to the camp. She paused to wave at him and then continued to the camp.
Basilwhisker Basilwhisker saw Sakura and Frostfeather pass by and followed them back to camp. He had some fish of his own hanging from his jaws but wanted to go back out into the forest to hunt or wander some more.
Ivysplash Ivysplash lay next to his sister and watched Nutshine. She had played with the kits and then come back to lay with them to chat. "How are you today?" He asked. Though he was quick to argue and fight he didn't need to in this situation as Nutshine seemed like a very agreeable cat.

The kits
Wolfkit took a few more bites before he retreated from the rabbit. Glancing at the others every now and then he sat down to wash his fur. After a few moments Foxkit stepped back too. With a yawn he lay down and blinked sleepily at the kits who were still eating. Weaselkit had slowed down a little now that some of the others had finished eating but was still busy tearing bites out of the rabbit.
Heronflight
"Nothing like a good meal after defending the clan." Heronflight laughed quietly to herself. "What a live they have. Taking down badgers and having great feasts every other day," she purred.
Darkclaw
Darkclaw watched the kits for a while, then he got up to his paws again and padded towards the camp's entrance. A few steps away from it he paused and glanced back at the other cats in camp. He decided to wait for a bit in case someone wanted to go on a hunt too.
Adderheart
Adderheart looked up when Darkclaw walked towards the camp's entrance but decided not to follow. She would watch the camp some more and then try to find some prey in the evening.
Rainsong
Rainsong glanced back and forth between Wishkit's group and Coalkit and Pinepaw, smiling to himself. No matter what happened, nothing seemed to bring the kits down for too long. Maybe this was exactly what the clan needed. Then he went back to looking at nothing in particular, just enjoying the day. He would check one of the borders later or join a hunting patrol but for now he was content with staying in camp for a bit.
Silverpaw
Silverpaw was pacing outside the apprentices' den, restless but at the same time not really feeling up to training battle or hunting techniques. With what was going on in the clan right no he didn't think he would be able to focus anyway.
(Depending on whether Morior comes back or not Icewhisper would be open for interaction too. I can also bring Cenra out again if she's needed for something.)

Wishkit saw there was still more rabbit and went in for seconds. She lay across from Weaselkit. "This is the bedt rsbbit I've had yet." She said aloud between bites.
Gazekit had dozed off laying just off from the rabbit. His head falling to rest on his paws. He started to drool a little as he fell deeper into sleep. His back paws moved a little as though he were running in his sleep.
"Ah the life of kits. May we always remember how extravagantly we lived once and live that way again when we make it to starclan" Turtlepool yawned. "Looks like its about time for a nap too" she added looking at the sleepy kits and realizing how tired she was herself. The light from above was breaking through the tree tops better and covering the outside of the den in a pool of golden sunlight.

Pinepaw thought for a second. "Ivysplash is okay, but he can be a little grumpy at times. Sometimes it feels like he argues everything for fun." She rolled her eyes slid the last peice of mouse to Coalkit. "Here, you can have the rest." She spotted Silverpaw by the apprentices den and beckoned him over with a flick of her tail.
Nutshine watched the kits with a smile on her face. "I'm doing good, how have you been doing Ivysplash?" She asked, tuening to face the tom.

Coalkit nodded. She ate the rest of mouse quickly. She watched as Pinepaw called over Silverpaw.
"I've been okay. I need to take Pinepaw out for some sort of training today." Ivysplash said.

Weaselkit quickly gulped down another piece of the rabbit before she nodded. Rabbits were the best kind of food and this one was even better than the last one they had. "Good thing the others are done," she meowed as she took another bite.
Wolfkit got up from where he sat and padded over to the moss ball. He rolled it around for a bit before he trotted over to Foxkit and sat down again.
Foxkit acknowledged his brother with a small nod and another yawn. He moved slightly so Wolfkit could sit more comfortably.
Heronflight let out a loud yawn as she watched the kits. "Looks like they're just like us in that regard," she meowed. She thought about going inside the elders den for a bit but it was still warm and comfortable outside.
Silverpaw looked up when he caught sight of Pinepaw and Coalkit. Wait, Coalkit? Spending time with someone who isn't Snowdapple? he thought. Curious, he walked over to them. "Hey, you two," he greeted once he had reached them. To Pinepaw he meowed "What were you two talking about?" So far he had never seen Coalkit play with anyone.

Pinepaw looked back at Coalkit. "I'm calling Silverpaw over so we can show you some more hunting or fighting skills. But that's only if you want us to show you. You do, right?" She asked Coalkit, hoping that she could show the kit some more of her skills.
Nutshine smiled and looked at the dark ginger apprentice. "She's doing a very good job in her training so far, don't you think? Look how well she's doing with Coalkit." She motioned to the kit as she talked.

Pinepaw looked up as Silverpaw approached. "Hey!" She mewed happily. "Do you want to show Coalkit some fighting or hunting moves?" She asked the silver tom. "I already showed her the hunter's crouch and she's doing super good so far! Show him Coalkit." She turned her eager gaze to Coalkit.

"Yeah it means we can both finish it." Wishkit said taking a few more bites. She chewed thoughtfully and then layed back finally full. "You're gonna have to finish it yourself. She said eyeing the rest. She then hopped over to Wolfkit and Foxkit.
Gazekit continued to sleep his body moving more and more like he was in a dream fight.
Coalkit nodded about being taught more stuff and then dropped into her little hunters crouch. She purred and took a little hop.
"She is doing well. She's a very enthusiastic student. I might let her have the day off since she and Silverpaw seem to be teaching Coalkit what they know. Teaching is the best way to cement your skills anyway." Ivysplash said with a grin.

Silverpaw looked at Coalkit for a second, then he nodded. "Sure! I think we can show her a basic fighting move or two," he meowed to Pinepaw. Then he turned to Coalkit again to watch her trying out the hunters crouch. With a happy purr he gave her a nod of approval. "Hey, that was pretty good! And you've just learned it?" Weaselkit flicked her tail as Wishkit finished her meal. "Oh, okay. More for me I guess." She watched her friend hopping over to Wolfkit and Foxkit before she turned her attention to the rabbit again, this time eating more slowly.
Foxkit looked up when Wishkit came over to them. Stifling a yawn he just flicked his tail to indicate that she was welcome to sit with them while Wolfkit just nodded sleepily. "We can play later, right?" mumbled Foxkit, already half-asleep.

Pinekit purred at Coalkit and stood up to face Silverpaw. "What move should we show her first? Belly rake? leap-and-hold? Something else?" she asked, eagerness shining in her eyes.
Nutshine nodded. "They seem to be getting along well. Pinepaw and Coalkit are really bonding. It's really amazing to see." she purred, watching the apprentices and Coalkit.

Coalkit nodded happily. She hopped around a little and the sat very still. She watched the two apprentices very carefully.
(I keep forggeting Turtlepools reply lol)
Turtlepool glanced over at the sleepy kits again. "They sure are." Then seeing Silverpaw had joined Pinepaw with Coalkit she said "look now Coalkit is playing with two new cats"
"Yeah we can play later." Coalkit said sitting down next to the boys.
Ivysplash nodded. "If Pinepaw were older I would say she could have mentored Coalkit." He tilted his head and watched the trio carefully.

Silverpaw glanced around camp for a moment, wondering if there was some place to show off the Jump-and-pin. Then again that move wasn't easy to pull off, Silverpaw himself was still working on getting the hang of it. Pinepaw's suggestions made more sense. They were simple yet effective moves. "Why not both?" he said finally, referring to the belly rake and leap-and-hold. He swished his tail, eyeing Pinepaw carefully. "Show her how to leap-and-hold first, then I can show her the other move."
Heronflight had placed her head on her paws, still keeping an eye on the kits. She smiled at the sight of the two apprentices. "Looks like Coalkit is going to see same battle techniques now," she purred. "But I must say, I'm impressed. She's being more social today than in the past four moons."

Turtlepool just nodded and started to doze off like the larger group of kits were.
Frostfeather dropped her prey in the fresh kill pile and followed after Sakura. "Did you have any more questions about starclan or clan life in general I guess?" She asked quietly.
Basilwhisker dropped his fish off to thr freshkill pile and the nodded to Darkclaw who looked like he was contemplating hunting.

Darkclaw watched Basilwhisker, Frostfeather and Sakura drop of their prey. Since those three just been out hunting he was surprised when Basilwhisker nodded to him. Still, he wouldn't say no if the other warrior wanted to find some more prey. He dipped his head in acknowledgement before he meowed "Ready for another hunt? Maybe we can find more this time. I haven't really caught much today."

Basilwhisker nodded. "I don't feel like staying in camp. Its bring back too many memories." He said. Waiting for the younger warrior to lead the way. "Sakura and Frostfeather were hinting in the meadow it seems so we could see if there's more there or we could go somewhere completely different.

Darkclaw lowered his gaze a little. He didn't really like to think about it. So far the playing kits and apprentices had been a welcome distraction but that didn't mean the clan had already forgotten. "Yeah, I suppose it does." But what were he and his clanmates supposed to do aside from trying to maintain their usual routine? And since the fox had already been killed there wasn't really some other action the clan could take. And as far as the clan was concerned, there was prey in the forest just waiting to be caught. So Darkclaw just nodded, meowing a "No, the meadow will do just fine" to Basilwhisker. Setting a quick pace the young warrior led the way but still paid close attention to his surroundings in case they would run into some prey on their way there.

Basilwhisker was relieved when Darkclaw started off. He was fond of the meadow and its cloying smells. The prey usually ran pretty well in the meadow as well as it being good for herbs. Je made a sound to pause when he scented a finch nearby. The bird was pecking at some seeds sprinkled on the ground when Basilwhisker made his approach. He pounced and missed the bird and it lighted on a branch nearby.

Darkclaw stopped on Basilwhisker's signal, not wanting to scare of the nearby finch. The bird was busy pecking at some seeds and looked like an easy catch. When the older warrior missed however the bird fled to a branch. Darkclaw narrowed his eyes at the finch as if he wanted to tell it off for making the hunt harder but then he just flicked his tail. "Maybe we'll have better luck if we go a little further," he meowed quietly. While the bird hadn't been loud there was a chance some other forest dwellers had seen it.
After a while he paused again, having caught the scent of a squirrel. It didn't take him long to find it. The squirrel had it's back turned to them but one wrong move could scare it off. He carefully approached the squirrel, pausing one time when it seemed like it was going to look up. Relieved that the squirrel hadn't noticed anything yet he continued his approach. Once he was close enough he pounced and killed it with one swift bite. When he dropped the squirrel and got a closer look he grunted, sounding slightly disappointed. "It's scrawnier than it looked it first," he meowed. "I hope we'll find something better."
(I made another cat. She and Rainsong are littermates.)
Warrior Ripplefur 36 moons A mottled pale-gray she-cat with green eyes. She can be very impatient with others and tends to speak her mind. As an apprentice she often got in trouble for being disrespectful and even got her warrior ceremony delayed by one moon. Even now she's not afraid of speaking out against higher-ranking clanmates if she thinks they're being mousebrained. She doesn't only voice her negative thoughts though, Ripplefur doesn't hesitate when it comes to complimenting or encouraging others. pineclaw

"I know leafbare is coming in a few moons but it shouldn't be this hard to find prey yet." Basilwhisker said a little miffed that he lost the finch. He dipped his head to Darkclaw. "Good job on the squirrel it will feed a cat even if its scrawny." He said calmly. He then kept moving toward the meadow.
(She sounds fun to be around and kind of like she and Ivysplash would either get along really well or not get along at all. Accepted I'll add her in.)
