Moonclan;
"Fox face? Me?" Brightpaw exclaimed, his words a melodramatic tidal wave of mock hurt and barely concealed amusement. "How you wound me." He flicked his tail at her muzzle with a laugh. "I'll give you the mischievous part. That just makes me all the more fun to spend time with! Besides, he might mistake you for a bird with how often you like to crow about your achievements."

☀️ After struggling for a few more moments Tigerpaw took a leap of faith, aiming for the treebranch. Her nails made a scratching sound on the surface of the wood. She managed to get a hold with her claws and with some effort she dragged herself up to where she could finally sit. “Ooff..” An relieved sigh escaped her mouth. She actually felt pretty good now that she finally made it. It wasn’t that high but it was an accomplishment nonetheless. “Are you coming?” She called at Amberpaw.
☀️ Pinestripe purred at Ripplecatcher’s compliment. She felt lucky to have a supportive mate like him. “I’ve started by seeing how he moved. Amberpaw is really accurate with his blows and quite fast but he lacks force. So we’re focusing on that for now. I hope that will give him the confidence to grasp the battle moves later on.” She explained and glanced over at the mouse. “Do you want to share? I forgot to ask.” She chuckled softly.

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher gave a smile at her offer. "Sure," he replied, a happy purr slipping from him. He listened to her explain her way of going about training Amberpaw in regards to battle. Maybe that method could work for Hornetpaw, see where he is good and see where he is lacking then focus on moves that will help him build in that area. "Hopefully," he said to her. "I'm sure he will make a fine warrior if he is already accurate and fast. When you get him to be able to get force behind it, he sounds like a force to be reckoned with."

Sunclan;
Amberpaw sucked in a breath and nodded. "I'll give it a go." He sat back on his haunches and pressed his paws, claws unsheathed into the bark. Moving his forepaws one by one, he was able to get enough momentum to start climbing properly, all four paws now on the trunk. At one point he felt the bark crumble around his claws and grimaced. He did not want to fall. When he got to the same place Tigerpaw had been, he attempted a jump like she had. For one horrible moment he thought he was going to just miss the lowest branch. Thankfully, he managed to sink his claws into it, but only just. His hind-legs dangled as he desperately tried to haul himself up.

☀️ “I really think he will be. And the nice thing about it is that I know he won’t use his skill in a bad way. He’s a good kid.” Pinestripe nodded. “Did you already have some battle training with Hornetpaw? He seems to be quite the hunter. Sunclan does have some great apprentices around.” The striped she-cat purred contently and took a bite from the mouse she’d brought with her, leaving the other half for Ripplecatcher.
☀️ Tigerpaw watched Amberpaw climb with great interest, hoping he’d make it to where she sat. “You can do it Amberpaw!” She encouraged the tom before his jump. When he dangled on the branch Tigerpaw quickly reached out to help him climb up. “We made it.” She grinned as they both finally sat firmly on the branch. The apprentice felt proud that they got up there but climbing sure was some intense stuff. She had to catch her breath for a moment while she glanced over the forest floor from their high spot.

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. Moonclan: Cricketshine blinked at her apprentice. She set down the clump of marigold and turned to face her apprentice. "If meeting him in secret is the only way, then so be it. let's get this marigold back to camp already, okay?" She grabbed the marigold and started to pad back to camp, but she stopped to face Woodpaw. "I can't ignore him either way, we're in the same clan." She added through a mouthful of herbs as she continued to walk back to camp.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw sighed in relief when Tigerpaw helped pull him up the last mouse-length so that he was level with her on the branch. "Thanks." He sat next to her, also taking a moment to catch his breath as well as take in the view. Awe made his eyes gleam. "Wow." He murmured breathlessly and beamed at her. It all looks really beautiful from up here. I wouldn't mind doing this more often ... although it's tiring. "Doesn't it look amazing? We're not even that far up."

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher shook his head. "Not yet, but I have been meaning to, he so far as been adamant about going hunting, he doesn't want to be the only apprentice that hasn't caught a squirrel," he commented, taking a bite from the mouse. "I do want to teach him at least some basic moves later today or tomorrow so he can at the very least defend himself to some degree." He was grateful Hornetpaw was a young apprentice which meant there was plenty of time to get the tom to learn battle moves and still be able to catch a squirrel. "But yea Sunclan is blessed to have hard working apprentices."

☀️ Tigerpaw took the time to look all around her, over to the other trees and up to the treetops. Somehow everything looked different when you sat higher up. “It does! Thanks Amberpaw, I would’ve never thought about this by myself.” She smiled gratefully at the tom, glad that she could share this moment with him. When her gaze travelled over to the other side she spotted two warriors, from here they looked tiny. “Hey look.” She meowed and gestured with her white paw to the duo. “Isn’t that Pebblefish? They look funny from here.”
☀️ “You still have a lot of time. I’m sure that will work out fine but some basic moves are always good to know.” Pinestripe nodded. “And hopefully he’ll catch his first squirrel soon!” The striped she-cat smiled and stretched out her legs. She glanced around camp, a few cats were walking around. “Do you want to go for a small walk?” She asked, hoping to get to talk to Ripplecatcher more privately. Since she’d lost two kits in a previous litter she was extra careful with the new information and she only wanted Ripplecatcher and Rainfern to know for now.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw had been leaning back against the tree trunk until Tigerpaw mentioned the small figures below them. His eyes narrowed, trying to make out who the two cats were. One definitely was Pebblefish and the other he could assume was her mate, Smokefrost. Something seems off, he thought and frowned. Was it just his imagination or was one of the two cats slumped against the ground? "Is someone hurt?" He asked Tigerpaw, the earlier awe replaced by slight concern.

MoonClan: Woodpaw winced. This was bad. She tried once more to convince Cricketshine to let it go. "Cricketshine, you cant do this! You took a vow when you became a medicine cat, remember? Are you prepared to just break a sacred vow?" Woodpaw spun around on her heels and stormed off. Why is Cricketshine acting so dumb? She must know that this is as bad an idea as feeding parsley to a nursing queen! (Btw parsley stops the flow of queens milk supply.)

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher thought for a moment. A short walk wouldn't hurt. He thought to himself. He gave a smile to his mate. "Sure let's go," he said rising to his paws, shaking out his fur a bit being careful to not get dirt on her. The fluffy tom looked at her. "Where would you like to walk to?" Maybe Pinestripe also wanted toc heck out the water monsters to ensure things were fine?

Moonclan:
Cricketshine quickly set down the clump of marigold in a spot of tall grass before she raced after her apprentice. "Woodpaw! Come back here!" She yowled as she ran after the she-cat. "Please just come back so we can talk about this!" She could only scarcely see Woodpaw but she kept running.

Pinkpaw "I only tell the truth. It'd hardly call that crowing about it." Pinkpaw huffed, returning with a tail flick of amusement of her own. This may not be training or anything, but she was enjoying passing the time like this as well. She glanced around the clearing and tilted her head "I wonder where the medicine cats are. It's been a while since I last saw them." she mused idly. Shrugging, she returned her attention to their conversation.

Moonclan;
Brightpaw followed her gaze without much interest. "I don't know. Foraging? Sorting? Isn't that what they usually do?" On further reflection, he could understand why she had mentioned it. It seemed that the medicine cats were out a lot lately. Not that it was something he paid much attention to. Woodpaw was his fellow apprentice, he supposed, but he wasn't especially close to her. He had probably pranked her a couple of times and that was the extent of their interactions.

☀️ Tigerpaw narrowed her amber gaze to get a better look at the pair. “I think you’re right. It doesn’t look good.” She meowed, they seemed to be a little panicked as well. “We should go see what’s going on. They might need help.” She glanced over at Amberpaw to see if he was on the same page. Hopefully he’d have an idea on how to get down first, because Tigerpaw wasn’t too sure about it. The ground beneath them seemed quite far away, too far away to just jump down.
☀️ Pinestripe smiled gratefully. She knew her mate was busy mentoring but she really needed to get this off her chest. “It won’t be too long. Just a little into the forest.” She assured him as they walked out of camp. The she-cat purposefully went the opposite way from where she knew other cats often walked around.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw looked back at her and nodded, then he looked down at the ground, fur prickling uncomfortably along his spine. Should he try going down tail first? Head first was too scary and he figured he'd just slip. "A-alright." He mewed with some conviction, trying to psych himself up. The ginger tom pivoted so that he was facing the trunk and reached a paw down from the branch. He sunk his claws in. His other hind-leg followed. I'm not going to look at the ground. Just slow and steady ...

Sunclan: "Alright lead the way," Ripplecatcher said as he followed her out of the camp. He was certain he was going to have enough time to train Hornetpaw when he got back, but for now he was happy to spend time with Pinestripe. As he walked beside her letting her decide the way for their walk in the forest. His curiosity was peaked when he noticed the direction they were taking away from the camp.

☀️ Tigerpaw wachted Amberpaw as he carefully clung to the treebark. “That’s a good way I think.” She nodded, there wasn’t really any other way to go down without possibly hurting themselves. As Amberpaw moved down a little Tigerpaw latched her claws to the bark with some hesitation. She’d have to get to the ground somehow sometime so she’d better do it now. Following Amberpaw’s lead she slowly made her way down.
☀️ Pinestripe walked close next to Ripplecatcher, their pelts gently brushing. “So, I need to tell you something.” She started as she knew they were out of hearing distance from their clanmates. In a sunlit clearing she stopped and sat down, gesturing for her mate to take place close to her. As she watched the tom she smiled, it was happy news she wanted to tell so she hoped he wasn’t worried.

Sunclan;
Amberpaw carefully inched his way down the tree. His claws were starting to ache by the time he was half-way there; he felt like they were being yanked out of his paws. Concern, however, for Pebblefish and Smokefrost kept him going. Eventually, after some very hairy moments where he felt like he might unlatch and fall backward, he reached the forest floor and couldn't be more relieved. He took a moment to steady his breathing. Once he felt like he might be able to get some proper words out, he turned to watch the rest of Tigerpaw's descent, anxious to go over to the others, and yet wanting to make such she didn't injure herself a the same time.

Sunclan: Ripplecatcher looked at her. "What is it<" he asked tilting his head to the side, settling onto the ground beside her. He smiled back at her, his worries starting to die down, because if she was able to be happy then it must mean that everything was okay. His tail flicked curiously as he waited for her to them him what was going on.

☀️ Tigerpaw tried her best to hold onto the bark. For a split second she let go and thrashed a few inches down before she was able to get a hold on the wood again. A sigh of relief escaped her mouth. Her heartbeat just went way up in this small moment, feeling like she was going to fall all the way to the forest floor. The sound of Amberpaw landing back on the ground reached her ears, with new determination she carefully made her way down the last part of the tree. She was thankful to have landed without anymore trouble and she felt happy to see Amberpaw standing at the tree base, safe and sound as well. Tigerpaw wanted to catch her breath with her friend but they had to go see what was up with Pebblefish and Smokefrost.
☀️ Pinestripe excitedly pawed the ground as she looked her mate into his eyes. “I went to Rainfern this morning and I was feeling a little bit off lately.” She paused for a moment, her green gaze glinstering warmly. “You’ll be a father soon.” She purred, she wasn’t far along yet but the signs had been clear and Rainfern had confirmed that she was bearing kits.

Sunclan; Ripplecatcher blinked as he processed the news before he nuzzled his mate purring. "That's wonderful news," he said, smiling happily. He was excited to be starting a family with her, but his mind went to the she cat's daughter, Tigerpaw. "Do you plan on telling Tigerpaw?"

☀️ Pinestripe was glad to hear Ripplecatcher was happy about the news. It was a big responsibility to have and raise kits and she wouldn’t want to do it with anyone else. “I will tell Tigerpaw.” She pondered for a moment. “I think soon. I just don’t want to tell too many cats about it and then possibly have to share bad news too. I’m a little scared something will go wrong like it did with Tigerpaw’s littermates.” She sighed softly and rested her head on Ripplecatcher’s shoulder, finding comfort in the scent of his fur. Pinestripe was more then happy to be expecting again and she really wanted kits but the possibility of losing them again still haunted haunted her in the back of her mind.

Sunclan: Riplecatcher wrapped his tail around Pimestripe. "It will be okay. We have an amazing medicine cat that is here to help you through it and a clan to support you," he said to her, he wanted to do his best to comfort her. He licked her forehead, he had heard of what Pinestripe went through during her first litter, and he knew it wasn't something that could easily be gotten over.

(I guess we’ll have to wait for willowflower to continue with Amberpaw and Tigerpaw?) ☀️ Pinestripe purred. Ripplecatcher’s words comforted her, he was right; there was no reason to stress about it yet. It would probably be okay. “Your support is the most important to me.” She meowed and gave his cheek a soft nuzzle. “Let’s head back. Hopefully you’ll still have enough time to train with Hornetpaw.”
