Tempestclan: The Wild and Restless Open

"Nice catch," Morningpaw meowed, seeing the bird Parsleypatch had caught, "Wish I could catch something." She then stopped talking and noticed a flash of black and white. "There's somebody here..." She whispered to the patrol.

---

Milo stopped, panting. He then looked back to see Morningpaw alert. He quietly crept into a bush, waiting to see what would happen next.

"How are you feeling and can you walk on your own?" Sageflower asked as she keeps her eyes on Swiftfox. If needed, she could find some herbs to give her a bit of extra strength.


"Let's try and catch one more piece of prey." Thundershade begins to follow the river upstream. He thought about teaching Patchpaw how to fish though he wasn't the best at fishing himself. For now, he would see if they can catch another mouse or find a shrew.


"Oh momma says that I look like a rose! It's suppose to be a really pretty flower!" Rosekit explained. "However, a rose also has these pointy things cause thorns."

"Y-yes, I can ;my nose just feels a little stuffed. But my ears.." Swiftfox rasped with annoyance. She raised her paw and leaned her head to a angle near the ground. She pat her ears as had as she can, despise the agony. She felt warm liquid flowing from her ear it was water. She lean back to the left and did the same thing for the next ear. Water came from both of her ears, and thankfully the pain stopped. Swiftfox stood up awkwardly and faced Sageflower. "Now that I remember.. Rushingwater isn't the cat we thought who he was" Swiftfox said high pitched for the two she-cats to understand what she is going on about.

Scorpionpaw snuck through the exit of the camp. She leaped through the soft pitch of grass, and ran between the alleys of trees. She ran though the forest, her fur was ruffled up by the wind resistance. "This is how it feels to be free!" Scorpionpaw foolishly announced, now the prey that was any closer with her ran off by the disturbance. But why should Scorpionpaw ca-. Her thoughts were interrupted as she tripped over a large root from the tree. Scorpionpaw's eyes widened before she can react. She thudded and slammed hard against the ground over a large hill. Scorpionpaw felt pain of sharp rocks building in her belly and pelt. And especially her face. Scorpionpaw let out a yowl but it cut short- as she landed hard into a pile of rocks and her vision immediately went black.

Cheetahrunner and Springtrap walked back to camp. The two huddled close to each other near the warriors den. "I should get going, it was nice talking to you" Cheetahrunner purred. "Same to you Cheetahrunner as always" Springtrap smiled. The two cats depart as Cheetahrunner went to check for Scorpionpaw in the apprentices den. She poked her head expecting to see Scorpionpaw sleeping but she wasn't there. How odd, she turned back and look through the camp. And search everywhere, she was not in sight nor the camp. Expect she smelled the familiar scent off from the exit of the camp. Her heart lurked, Scorpionpaw snuck out, however the scent was not recent not much longer. But the scent carried off mix with other scents, Scorpionpaw's scent was gone. Cheetahrunner panicked. "SCORPIONPAW! SCORPIONPAW'S GONE!" Cheetahrunner yowled, her tone half-bitten with shock and anger. 

Rushingwater and Whitelily padded through the sand. As their well-cleaned pelts were matted with sand. Whitelily groaned, she hated when her silky pelt was getting dirty all over again. Rushingwater stopped in his tracks in front of Whitelily. "What-?" Whitelily murmured. "Look ahead" Rushingwater pointed with his tail toward a fuzzy familiar pelt. The cat was laying on the rock; to be identified as Ratscar. "Whaddya know?" Whitelily purred. Rushingwater grinned as he purposely stomped towards Ratscar to wake her up.


Ratscar woke up to the sound of disturbance as she lifted her head to see two shapes of cats walking towards her. She leaped up and snarled, it was the clan cats. How dare they come back? To have the audacity to come up to her after humiliating her infront of everyone especially Gail. "What do you want? You waste of pathetic piece of FOX-DUNG!" Ratscar yowled loudly, blinded with fury she sheathed her claws leaped towards the cats.

Coyote searched through the camp to Gail, about the intermission of the encounter with the hawk. The camp could be in danger if so, exposed by the hawks. He needed to tell her, to  get everyone prepared for the future attack of the hawk IF it happen.

(I’ll try to come up with replies on sunday! Everything has been unexpectedly busy 😫)

(Same for me, been trying to get ready for spring break and creativity it burning out quickly with the amount of homework I got. I should be able to get something up hopefully soon)

(Hey old friend. For now Kestralpaw has kind of been in the background. Rn Eaglepaw is being held captive by the rogues and has been for over a moon. The clan plans on launching a rescue mission soon)

(Sorry for the delay!)

Blackclaw grinned, glad his apprentice was as bubbly as ever. "That's the spirit!" He purred as they travelled, a clear pep in his step. He was in a good mood, though it was rare when he wasn't. For all his faults, being positive was something Blackclaw always had going for him. When they arrived at the distinctive rock, Blackclaw turned to his apprentice, "I don't think I've had you climb before." He stated, trying to remember, with everything that had happened the past moon or two, it is a struggle to recall somethings. "Anyways, that's what we will be doing today. It's an important skill, it also helps with strength and balance." He explained, his tone as casual as ever. The tom never saw the point in being so stuffy and formal when training, "I want you to try to climb to the top as quickly as you can. If you fall, just try again. Don't stop trying until you reach the top." He told the younger cat, sitting down to watch. It would be good to see what Wandererpaw struggled with, where he was compensating and how he could improve. The last thing he wanted was Wandererpaw to slip or fall while on patrol due to poor mentorship.

Cheetahrunner faced Falconfrost, hiding her shock expression and her anger. She lifted her chin to the cat. "Are you as deaf as you are thick? Scorpionpaw isn't allowed to leave she's a reckless and a unstable clumsy excuse for a cat. For all I know the rogues would chewed her up easily if she were alone" Cheetahrunner admitted harshly, talking behind Scorpionpaw's back. Springtrap listened to the commotion from ahead, but he stayed stable.

Swiftfox shook her head to Pearmoon's offer. "I'm fine, I can manage on the way to camp. But..Rushingwater.." Swiftfox hissed with hatred. "Rushingwater is nothing but a bile of fox-dung! He's been trying to gain on us with the rogues behind our backs. Including with his follower, Whitelily" Swiftfox hated the two, and knew they are cruel and selfish. But she never known they were thirsty to rule the clan foolishly. "I followed them both out from the camp. I found them, but they weren't alone. It was where the rogues' were located.." Swiftfox hesitantly continued while walking off. "They..were telling lies, spitting out that TempestClan, their own clan..who raised them well with the best offers. Saying that they chased them off, and "killed" their families. And Whitelily said that they needed the rogues to take us out. But unsurprisingly, the rogues declined their deal as the two left. But when I learned of their betrayal and tried to run away. I made too much noises, and Rushingwater spotted me. A-and chased me..until we were close to the lake. He tried to drown me, wanting me to keep quiet. Since I listened to too much.. that's all I remembered until Pearmoon founded me" Swiftfox meowed. "We have to inform Wolfstar, they are poisonous..lying snakes they deserve exile!" Swiftfox dramatically snarled.

kittyking2  This is the last reply from the rp with Oakstrike, Parsleypatch, and Morningpaw.

Oakstrike snuffled around, feeling the strange cat's fur. He bent down, grabbing it by the scruff and pulling it out of the bushes, instantly he leaped on him pinning him to the ground. "Give me one reason I shouldn't kill you right now" Oakstrike growled.

"A flower huh? Maybe we can try and find one..... my dad never told me why he named me Swiftkit." Swiftkit said, trailing off. "Hey, do you know why that Patch-whatever got her name changed?" he said

Patchpaw nodded rushing after Thundershade "Hey Thundershade, why were those cats from earlier so mean? Weren't they from Tempestclan?" Patchpaw asked.

"I am letting him talk!" Oakstrike said, releasing his grip on the cat a little "Now do you wanna talk?" Oakstrike said.

Springtrap leaped to Cheetahrunner's side, at a pick pace. "What happened? I heard you yowling like a lost kit, where's Scorpionpaw?" Springtrap questioned the she-cat. Cheetahrunner's gaze was placed on Wolfstar, but she turned to Springtrap. "Scorpionpaw left camp; and now she's missing. Her scent was washed away but other cats scents. I don't know if we have good scenters here to track Scorpionpaw down. But I doubt we will find her, the rogues could've snatched her up" Cheetahrunner said, trying to sound calm. Springtrap flattened his ears, and turned from Cheetahrunner.

(It's okay! C:
Wandererpaw nodded, with confidence."You got it!" he smiled and turned from his mentor to the rock. He unheasthe his claws, and focus on the spots that are easy for him to climb. He leaped on the a side of the rock, he slipped off but he clung on with his claws. Digging into the rock, he pushed himself upward. He tried to use his other good hindleg, but instead he slipped down the rock and fell on his back. With determination, he dashed back to the rock and sprinted on the air. With a powerful boost from his good hindleg he launched on the rear side of the rock. Clawing desperately to get up, with all his strength. He pulled upward, almost reaching to the top but he slid off. However, Wandererpaw reacted quickly, and pulled himself upward fast. He let out a groan of exhaustion, his strength was rearing down. But he didn't care, he dug his way up. Until he reached the top, he climbed himself on there. And fell back with a wheeze and and a gasp. Breathing for air desperately. "I..did it" Wandererpaw sighed happily, as he sprang up to face down on his mentor. But a part of the distinctive rock fell under his paws by his weight. Wandererpaw eyes widened as he crashed to the ground from a short fall. He landed on his legs, shivering, he wasn't hurt. He tugged himself upward to Blackclaw hiding his shock, but he was trembling. "What now? I can do anything!" Wandererpaw grinned.

"Just because they are apart of the clan doesn't mean cats have to be nice to you." Thundershade explained glancing down at her. "Some cats are just mean no matter what."


"Oh, because she turned six moons! When you are six moons, you get to be an apprentice and train to be a warrior!" Rosekit said excitedly. "You get to learn how to hunt, fight and protect the territory from bad cats!"


Snowfeather looks down at Shellkit who was nestled next to her. "Do you want to say hello to Swiftkit?" She asked her voice soft. She could tell Shellkit was a little more reserved than her sister and she hoped Shellkit would open up a little when she was older.



Thorn clears his throat and takes a step towards Gail. "Sorry to bother you. Um a kittypet came to the group and you probably want to meet her. She is kind of strange though." He warned.

Gail turned around when Thorn entered her den, her tail twitching with annoyance as she listened to what he had to say. “Another stranger? We might have to up our defenses if all these cats keep walking into our camp as they please.” She glanced at Thorn. “What do you think of her, is she as weak and entitled as the usual kittypet or do you think she could be of use?”

——————

Shellkit shrugged and glanced up to her mother. “I don’t really like strangers.” She admitted, curling her tail around her body. Her gaze travelled over to her sister and the new kit for a moment before returning to her mother.

——————

Pearmoon was taken aback when Swiftfox reacted that fiercely and her neck shrunk back when the warrior faced her. “We just want to get you to safety, inside of Sageflower’s den.” She explained, hoping the she-cat would understand. If what she said was true, of course she needed to be protected but there was no safer spot than the medicine cat den. Though, deep inside she hoped what Swiftfox said wasn’t true. It would be terrible having their clanmates plotting to kill their own.

————————

“I wouldn’t react this over-emotional and throw a tantrum, that’s for sure.” Poppyfall raised an eyebrow at her words. “I’d suggest you calm down a bit and use your head to think of a way to fix this problem because ultimately Scorpionpaw is your responsibility. And as you explained very kindly to Falconfrost; she’s reckless and unstable.” She flicked her tail irritably, if Scorpionpaw would have been her apprentice she wouldn’t have let that cat out of her sight. Admittedly Scorpionpaw was a very difficult apprentice. But that means Cheetahrunner should keep an extra good eye on her. “I guess prancing around with Springtrap was more important than your duties to the clan and now you’re making your problem everyone’s problem.”
