Moonclan;
Brightpaw smiled. "Yeah, sounds fun. We could probably teach them a thing or two." Suddenly, he remembered to ask about the gathering. He had meant to earlier and evidently had forgotten in the midst of their competition. The mottled apprentice had gotten the gist of what had happened that night; the covering of the moon, and the water monsters which he honest wasn't particularly concerned about. "Did you speak to the apprentices at the gathering the other night? Any new ones?" At previous gatherings, he had met the Sunclan apprentices, Tigerpaw and Minnowpaw, though he figured there might be more of them now.

MoonClan. Woodpaw smiled happily and followed Cricketshine into the medicine cat den. "Thats great for you! Im so happy!" She felt nothing but joy for the she-cat who was her mentor. Then her mind jerked back to reality. Cricketshine could only meet up with Iceleap in secret.She decided to bring it up later, when Cricketshine had calmed down a bit. "Anyways, I didnt lie about needing more marigold. We should probably get some."

Moonclan:
Cricketshine nodded, joy fizzling inside of her. She didn't think it would ever stop. "Let's go and find some marigold then." She meowed happily as she walked towards the entrance of camp. "Where do you think we should look?" She asked, turning to face her apprentice.

MoonClan: Woodpaw shrugged. "Wherever you think is best". It was unlike Woodpaw not to take the lead, but she was too preocupied with her thoughts on how to bring up the bad news to Cricketshine.

Cricketshine blinked at her. "I think it's best that you take the lead. You might be getting your full name soon. Maybe even at the next Medicine cat meeting." She meowed happily.

MoonClan: Woodpaw forced her way out of her mind "U-uh ok." Then Cricketshines words registered. "W-wait! My full medicine cat name?!" Woodpaw was too shocked too speak. Then she forced herself to be calm. "T-thank you Cricketshine! Alright, um, lets go to the patch over there" She flicked her tail to the left.

Moonclan:
Cricketshine padded over to the patch Woodpaw had pointed out, and sure enough, there was a large patch of marigold. She carefully nipped the stems and grabbed the bundle with her jaws. "Good job Woodpaw!" She meowed through a mouthful of herbs.

βοΈ Tigerpaw smiled took a moment to think about what they could do best. βHmmm I donβt really fancy getting my fur wet again now that I think about it, but if you have some great fishing skills to show me Iβm totally up for it.β She meowed excitedly. The she-cat enjoyed Amberpawβs company, he wasnβt as talkative as she was, nor as closed off as Koipaw. He just had the right kind of energy that balanced everyone out. He seemed to get more skilled by the day as well. Maybe theyβd spot some water monsters near the shore, thatβd be quite interesting. Tigerpawβs thoughts were already miles ahead of her. βWe could always do some sparring afterwards if we have some energy left. See you around Koipaw!β
π Wolfmist smiled at the two apprentices, though she felt quite worried as she heard what Reedpaw had learned so far - or how much she didnβt learn. If she compared it to what Flashpaw could do.. It didnβt really look good. She hid her worries from the two apprentices, not wanting to stress them. βAhh I wonder where Flashpaw learned those great moves, she must have a great teacher.β She grinned and flicked her tail playfully over her apprenticeβs ear. βBut if I understand this correctly; your mentor hasnβt taught you any battlemoves??β Wolfmist questioned Reedpaw, a slight hint of disbelief in her voice. How could a warrior - a mentor - not teach an apprentice how to fight? Or how to defend herself? It baffled her.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw shrugged lightly. "Alright. No harm in bringing back more prey." He had also considered the fact that they may come across some water monsters, and was admittedly curious. As they started to walk out through the camp entrance, he meowed, "Is it true that not all the Moonclan apprentices were at the gathering? I guess you've spoken to them before, right?" It made sense. From what he'd heard, Moonclan had about the same number of apprentices as Sunclan and not all of the latter's apprentices had gone to the gathering either.

(Honestly Iβm not sure about Tigerpawβs age haha. I roleplayed the gathering as her first one π΅ Iβll just roll with it π)
βοΈ Tigerpaw followed Amberpaw out of camp, her striped tail swishing behind her. βWell.. not really.β The she-cat admitted. βI missed my first gathering because I stepped on something sharp while training and my paw was all sore and inflammated. It was a big disappointment but Rainfern said I shouldnβt go.β Her tail drooped a little as she thought back to that moment. For a chatty cat like herself it had been a missed opportunity to socialize and hear stories - or gossip - about the other clan. βIβve heard some talk about some of them though.β Sheβd made an effort to inquire with the other warriors and apprentice to hear about everything that had gone on.

βΎ Reedpaw "I can already tell that if I say no, that's not a good thing," Reedpaw said dourly. Just by Wolfmist's expression, he must've been farther behind than he even imagined. "I guess battle moves weren't really his priority." Maybe his mentor was trying to get him proficient at hunting first, and then teach him battle moves? Or maybe his mentor's just lazy. Either would do it. "So, what are we starting with?"
βΌ Pebblefish Pebblefish nearly jumped in shock at Smokefeather's yowl of pain, staring with wide eyes as she hovered over her mate. "Smokefeather! Are you alright?" She nosed about him, checking him over. "Did you twist your ankle? Where does it hurt? Can you walk?" She peppered him with anxious questions, restlessly padding around him. Despair was starting to rise in her chest - she was heavy with kits. Would she have to strength to carry her mate back to camp?

Sunclan:
Smokefrost winced in pain as he tried to move his hind leg. "Yeah, I think I twisted my back leg." he winced again. "My whole back leg hurts. It feels like I broke it. I don't think I can walk." He hissed in pain. He looked up at her with pained eyes. "I'm sorry this happened Pebblefish." He apologized.

(I wasn't sure either xD
Should Amberpaw and Tigerpaw run into Smokefrost and Pebblefish on their way up?)
Sunclan;
"Oh. That must have been pretty boring." Amberpaw nodded sympathetically. While not the most talkative cat, he knew he too would much rather be at Crescent Cove on the night of the gathering than being stuck in camp. "We'll just have to talk to them next moon." As he said that, he realised how far away that felt. It's kind of funny. Times like this, I'm excited to talk to all the other apprentices, but when I'm actually there I just freeze up.

(Oooo yes thatβs a good idea!)
βοΈ βI hope so. I know one apprentice is called Brightpaw. From what Iβve heard he seems to be pretty close to becoming a warrior.β Tigerpaw meowed, remembering what Mallowpool had told her about the previous clan meeting. βHopefully next time weβll have some more time to chat too.β She meowed and grinned softly. βI bet Pinkpaw will have some new big stories to tell.β
π Wolfmist decided not to stretch the subject of Alderfangβs faillure to mentor Reedpaw properly. βI want to see what you can do, so I want you to spar with Flashpaw. Claws in of course.β She meowed as they had reached the clearing where she and Flashpaw usually trained. With her tail she gestured to the middle of the place for the apprentices to face eachother while she sat at the edge, peering intently at the two with her hazel gaze. She sat down on her haunches, waiting for their first move.

Sunclan;
"Who knows? Maybe we'll have some of our own to tell ... even if they are only about how well we did during training." Amberpaw smiled, his amber eyes flickering. Almost a warrior. So then he must be pretty skilled, he thought, wondering if the older apprentice would be intimidating or just like the others they'd met. He breathed in the fresh air. "Speaking of, have you and Mallowpool done tree climbing yet?" He knew tree climbing usually wasn't focused on in comparison to swimming or fighting or hunting. Nonetheless, he had always thought his agile frame might help with it.

Moonclan: "Alright," Flashpaw said,with a nod to her mentor and headed to be in the middle. She waited for Reedpaw to join her. She wondered if it was a fair fight to be putting her against her brother. Crouching she got ready to pounce at him, when she felt she had the right moment she leapt forward, and did a front paw strike at Reedpaw, keeping her claws in.

βοΈ Amberpaw was right, surely they would have some interesting stories to tell as well. Tigerpaw wondered what it would be like to go to the gathering as a warrior. Maybe Brightpaw would be going as one next time. She followed Amberpawβs gaze to the trees. βNo, have you?β The striped apprentice asked, switching her gaze back to the tom. Her tail twitched with anticipation. Could she just climb up a tree? She certainly was willing to try, fishing could wait. And who knows; they might even be able to spot the water monsters from the higher branches.

Pinkpaw "There were a few new faces. I can't remember their names though. I heard one of them was a kittypet before, which is pretty rare here." she shrugged. Pinkpaw was the type to forget faces and names unless they made an impact on her.

ah i must have missed that sorry) Sunclan: Ripplecatcher yawned as he shook out his fur from his nap. He licked at his fur to smooth it out, the tom gazing around the camp. He must have fallen asleep in the shade, after getting back from taking Hornetpaw hunting. The fluffy grey tom licked at his paw and swept it over his face.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw shook his head with a thoughtful frown on his face. "No. Do you think it would be safe to?" He looked up at a nearby tree, his head tilted questioningly as though he was considering it. Sunclan territory wasn't as heavily forested as Moonclan so he hadn't given it too much contemplation until now.
Moonclan;
"A kittypet? Really?" Brightpaw mewed in a surprised, almost gossipy tone. "Don't get them too often. I wonder if he's any good." He must be pretty decent to have made it to the island, he decided, his curiosity piqued. The apprentice had to admit he felt a sense of disdain toward the life that kittypets led. It just seemed so lazy and uninteresting in comparison.

Koipaw better not tell Brightpaw how he got to the island lakfjladkj Have the other hold some respect for him even if it's a lie.)
Moonclan
Pinkpaw "Yeah. He didn't seem very talkative. Must not like clan cats or something." she scoffed, though there wasn't actual venom to her tone. She was more just enjoying the idle gossip than being actually mad at the kittypet for not interacting with them. Besides, she'd gotten to brag to the other apprentices, so it all worked out.

(Donβt worry about it ^^)
βοΈ Pinestripe noticed Ripplecatcher had woken up in a shady spot of camp. With a quick trot the she-cat made her way over to her mate, her tail rippling happily behind her. A mouse dangled from her jaws. She set the piece of prey down and gently shoved it towards him with her paw. βHey you.β She meowed and sat down close to the tom. βHow did training go with your apprentice?β
βοΈ Tigerpaw shrugged. βWe can just try. If it doesnβt work so be it.β She smiled and walked up to one of the trees, stuying it for a moment. Then she took a few steps back and ran up close before she leapt at the bark, trying to reach the first branch. With her claws out she clung to the bark. Now that βlowβ first branch actually seemed miles away. She tried to adjust her paws to climb a little closer but it only helped her get a few inches further. βWhat do I do now??β She asked Amberpaw, her voice laced with doubt.

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher smiled as he licked her cheek. "Hey," he said, with a small purr. "It went well, Hornetpaw managed to catch three pieces of prey, with only a few minor mistakes, but he's young, so he has a lot of time for improvement. If he's up for it I might take him out again" He looked at Pinestripe. "How about you and your apprentice? Are things going well?"

βοΈ βThatβs great!β Pinestripe smiled and nuzzled his cheek. βBut youβre a great mentor too.β She curled her striped tail over her paws. βAmberpaw is making very good progress. We focused on battletraining today. I know itβs not his favorite part of warrior training but heβs making great effort to get the moves right.β Pinestripe was glad to hear Ripplecatcherβs apprentice was doing well, it showed her that he was good with young cats and soon he might need to use that skill a lot more.

(Oh noo. Brightpaw would be like "oh hey, you must be an amazing swimmer, huh?" and Koipaw's like ._. )
Moonclan;
"Might have to talk to him next time." Brightpaw mused. He shrugged nonchalantly, his green, almost yellow eyes scrolling across the camp. "I'm so charming, he'd probably talk to me." His tone was light and not especially serious. Bet he's called Fluffy or something silly like that. Poor guy.
Sunclan;
Amberpaw blinked uncertainly up at Tigerpaw. "Uh. I don't know? Try moving your paws individually?" He offered and sunk his claws into the base of the tree curiously. It was hard. As expected. Was climbing similar to swimming ... but on bark?

Pinkpaw "Oh please, I bet he'd want to talk to me more." Pinkpaw snorted "You have a mischievous look about you, he'd probably avoid you. You know what they say, don't trust a cat with a fox face." she added, though her words didn't sound that serious. Brightpaw was a good cat, but she had to deny him this. That's how friendship worked.

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher gave a nod. "That's good, you seem like you would be an amazing teacher," he said, he meant the comment. Pinestripe had a kind personality, and was a mother, to Tigerpaw, so she knew how to handle young cats and help them. He nuzzled against her cheek in return. He settled to be laying down, his gaze flickering to the mouse briefly. "What moves have you taught him so far?" He was curious to know what other apprentices had learned, to get an idea on where to start in regards to Hornetpaw's battle training.

MoonClan: Woodpaw knew she was going to feel bad about what she was going to say, but she needed to snap Cricketshine back to reality. "Cricketshine, you do know that this cant be something thats everyone knows about, right? You either need to meet with him in secret, which is extremely risky, or not see him at all." She winced, bracing for Cricketshines reaction.
