|Nightstar| Starcave patrol|
As the dogs disappeared back the way they had come, Wildmane joined Nightstar on the branch she was perched in. Gazing at the bristling molly, she let out a slight shake of her head, sighing at her words. Resting her bushy tail on her warriors shoulder, she led the way down the tree, where they were joined by her trusted deputy. While it was obvious that the leader had brought the warriors she was not only closest to, but trusted with her entire life, she felt a pull in her chest at the thought of putting any of them in harms way. The leaves crunched beneath the patrols paws as they moved amongst the trees. Gathering the warriors with her tail, she looked to each of them for a moment. Cobrastorm, her loving mate. Lightfall, her trustworthy deputy. Wildmane, her devoted warrior. Cinderblaze, her voice of reason. Lightningstrike, her blood and soul. Each one was part of the group she had pulled together during the gator attacks. Each one had played a huge role in her decisions. Each one of them, she had vowed to turn to any time there was trouble within her clan.
Of course, she trusted and depended on her other warriors as well. But these were the felines she had become closest to. Who had not only been her eyes and ears, but had also been her shoulders to lean on in the darkest times. Each one close to her age. They'd grown with her in the moons she had been alive. Some just under her, some right by her side. And she loved that about each of them.
With a final sigh, she nodded her head and started leading the way back to camp. "For the time being, I want a patrol going out this way, three times a day. I don't want you going up to the canyons, stay near the tree-line. But watch for the dogs, listen for them, pay attention. Our main concern is these dogs right now. I don't want any surprises. Hopefully this passes within a few days and their twolegs will find them." She turned large amber eyes on each of her clanmates, taking in their expressions. "Thank the stars that we have an abundance of new warriors. While we lack in apprentices at the moment, I don't want any younger members of the clan out this way." She turned her full attention to Lightfall, continuing on. "I want the six of us to rotate out on patrols. Cobrastorm and I will take the dawn patrol. Lightfall and Wildmane, you take the Sun-high patrol and Lightningstrike and Cinderblaze will take the sunset patrol. I want two other warriors in each patrol. Preferably an older warrior and one of our newer warriors. Any questions, ideas or concerns.?" The calico leader turned her eyes back on each of the members of her group, moving carefully and quietly through the trees. [Lightfall( ~Skyblaze~) Cinderblaze( Robinbreeze) Cobrastorm( Taiyou) Lightningstrike( Brindlebriar) Wildmane( Fallenleaves)] -โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-|Scorchstreak| Medicine Cats Den|As he did every day, Scorchstreak simply ignored the insults and instead started to groom at the once beautiful warriors, matted fur. Flicking her shoulder with his tail, yellowish orange eyes flashed to Swansong's face. So often lately, the tom had come to know the distant look in her orange eyes. "You know, know one would bicker over you like a kit, if you'd stop acting like one." He gently, but firmly nudged the white molly with his maw, trying to get her to her paws. His bushy tail flicked slightly behind him and he waited for her to fire back at him. While he had gained so much patience with the younger feline, he still wanted to smack her over the head some days. "For Starclan's sake. What do you plan to do in this den.? ROT.? You need to be useful. You're a warrior, you mouse-brain. So act like one." Yet as he spoke, his eyes were soft and his urges with his maw and paws were gentle. While he wouldn't admit it to the molly, he had grown quite fond of her. Even in the few moons since her first seizure. He'd padded after her until a particularly bad incident had her moved off of Warrior duties. That was almost a moon ago, and yet, the somali warrior continued to visit the white molly every morning and evening.

Brindlebriar || Nursery
Brindles eyes fluttered open. Things around camp had gotten strange. She found herself religiously avoiding those who were supportive of Dew's kits and her choices, leaving her with little to no one to confide in other than her mate. Seeing her mate was a warrior and had no need to spend his time in the nursery with her, she was alone with her kits most days.
Huffing, she looked around. Brightkit was much larger now, taking up a lot of room in the nursery, so by default, she normally slept in the spare nest in the corner while the others still nestled around her warm fur. Wrapping her tail around the ones that her against her, she made sure to keep them far away form Dews kits who were now old enough to want to play. Thankfully the kits were just barely old enough now to know that her decision was wrong, and most of the time, they stayed away from them.
Sighing again, the queen nudged the sleeping bundles. "Come young ones, lets go out of the den. I need some fresh air." She whispered, shooting a stabbing glance in the way of the kits and Dewdrop. Pushing her way out, not waiting for the kits to wake up, she found herself blinking. A few of the cats were gone. How odd. Where had they gone? Lightningstike, Cinderblaze, Wildmain, Lightfall, and Cobrastorm were all gone. As well as Nightstar. Cocking her head slightly, she wondered where her leader had run off to today. Rainpaw, now known as Rainflight, had become a warrior, leaving Scorchstreak to be alone again, and by the looks of it, causing issues with the Medicine Cat. Shaking her head, she couldn't help but feel bad for Pecanfeather. The poor cat had been made one too early in her opinion, leaving him to figure things out on his own. She felt bad for him.
Looking around once more, she searched for her mate. Brightkit, Rushingkit and Acornkit had made their way out, yawning and stretching loudly. Flattening her ears slightly at their obnoxious noises, she sat down loudly.
Acornkit || Rushingkit, Brightkit
Acornkit blinked as his mother woke him. Huffing in protest, he opened his eyes. Brindle had already pushed her way out, not waiting for him and his siblings to be awake. Looking after her, his heart grew in sadness. Ever since Dewdrop had taken place in the Nursery, she had been super irritable and not very fun, causing them to be corrected more and kept away from the new friends he could have made. Looking back at Dewdrop, he blinked softly, letting her know that he, although he was small, was grateful for her honesty and cared about her.
Stepping out of the den, he stretched his little thin legs, squeaking as he stretched out the tiredness from his fur. Sitting down quickly, noticing his mothers flat ears, he watched with large eyes. Would she ever be happy again? Looking back at his siblings, he searched for any sign of hope in their eyes.
Lightningstrike || Patrol
Lightningstrike blinked as the little patrol emerged, only to be met with the snarls of large dogs and large pointed teeth. Fluffing up and retreating, he listened to his sisters words. "To the trees" The words she yowled sounded muffled by the blood pounding through his ears, the adrenaline making his paws move faster than they ever have before. Upon meeting the trees, he dove into the under growth, the thorns pulling the skin below his fur, leaving behind stinging marks.
The blood began to drip as he launched himself up the tree, Holding his breath in pain, he squatted on a high branch as Nightstar did a quick head check. Blinking in shock, he was amazing at how calm his sister remained. Shaking his head, his ears flat, he scowled down the trees, his eyes watching each dog carefully. Their large bodies causing them to fall, their tongues lolling, the drool dripping.
As the patrol made it safely back to camp, he licked his wounds and sniffed out a large mouse. All the running and adrenaline that had pumped through him, he was starving. Lifting his head after he sniffed out a good enough piece, he couched down by the medicine cats den, waiting until Pecanfeather was ready before he pushed for help.
Rainflight || In the Camp
Rainflight sat upright, his fur moving with the wind. He had grown a lot in the last three moons, he gained his warrior name, one that he was beyond proud to wear for those to call him by. Glancing around, he flattened his ears as he watched his once fun mentor lash out at Pecanfeather. It felt weird watching the tom slip slightly back into his old grumpy ways. Now that Rainflight was his equal, things were weird. He wasn't sure what to do with himself now, his new freedoms giving him a way into the forest that he had never known before. He understood why the older warriors spent the days out there. The whispers of the trees, the glugging of water through the rivers. Now that the water monster was dead, the rivers were open for all, and Rainflight was able to find freedom in that. He loved spending his evening in the waters, the weight being lifted off his back as he simply floated.
Looking around for something to do, he licked his paws. |

Lightfall | Deputy | Starcave Patrol | Nightstar, Cobrastorm, Lightningstrike, Wildmane, Cinderblaze
Lightfall nodded briskly as the group padded through the trees. By now, she had gotten in sync with her leader and understood her thought processes. Already, she was planning the next day's patrols and which cats would be in the area. "I'll remind the mentors." She meowed. "Though it is just Rosepaw and Skunkpaw for now." Both of the current apprentices were warrior age, but injuries from the past moons had held them back. It would be time for their ceremonies soon enough. "I'll also make sure Brindlebriar knows." She added. "Brightkit, Rushingkit, and Acornkit still have a couple moons to go, but knowing kits, they'll find a way to get in trouble, and I don't want them anywhere near there." Though the apprentice's den was nearly empty, the nursery in contrast was teeming, and the Clan would have young cats to train once more before they knew it.

Cobrastorm~ Starcave Patrol~ Nightstar, Wildmane, Cinderblaze, Lightningstrike, Lightfall
Cobrastorm bristled at the sight of the dogs emerging from Starcave and as the large bodies rushed toward them, a nudge from Nightstar broke his focus with her command to climb the trees. Cobrastorm hissed as the patrol launched themselves up to safely from the ferocious beast, it was that long ago that the clan was freed from the gator lurking in their waters now dogs were loose near the forest was Starclan angry with them again for Dewdrop, surly not as some cats have been supportive of Dewdrop and her kits. Once pulling himself on to a study branch, Cobrastorm looked around at his clanmates hoping everyone escaped the dogs and as everyone was accounted for he let out a sigh of relief before looking down at the dogs was they gave up on their chase and returned to the cave where the clan spoke with their ancestors. As the patrol made their way back to camp, Cobrastorm listened to Nightstar and Lightfall letting out a scoff. "The last thing we need is more cats getting killed or injured again. We should have cats guarding the entrance to the camp in case those mutts mange to wondered deeper in the forest."

Wildmane sniffed in displeasure at it all, โwe should keep a careful eye on the two legs when they come. Donโt want them wandering upon our camp either.โ
Her eyes turned back the way they came. โShould we do some hunting on the way back? Or head straight home?โ It would be a wasted trip to return having done nothing. At the same time Wildmane would understand Nightstarโs urgency to warn the clan if she so decided.
_
Swansong stood at Scorchstreakโs urging, only because she knew he would relentlessly pester her otherwise. The remark he threw at her made her heart twist, her worst nightmare, no longer a warrior. A burden rather than a blessing, the very thing sheโd always prided herself over. โIt wasnโt I would decided that.โ She hissed and stumbled past him, dreading how the clan would look at her once she exited the den. They should make their way quickly to the entrance or Swansong might just claws someoneโs eyes out.
-
Dewdrop had tucked her tail in close with her dosing kits as she watched Brindlebriar stand and leave the den. It was well known how much distaste the other queen had for her, as it had been quite the fight to get Dewdrop into the queenโs den without her objecting. The Mollyโs scorn however hurt less than the questions from her own kits as to why they werenโt allowed to play freely. So far sheโd just told them they were too young to play with the older kits. Hawkkit though seemed to see past her words and it hurt to spot him watching the other kits. He looked so much like his father then, separated from the group.
โWake up my kits.โ She meowed and nudged the four of them gently.
-
Bearswipe gave a pleased groan as he stretched out his limbs, the leg heโd broken had healed nicely and only aches when storms rolled in. It was more than he couldโve asked for and heโd let Pecanfeather know as much, the poor young Medicine cat needed the encouragement after all.
Rolling his shoulders Bearswipe shook off the moss from his bedding and stepped out into the proper of the warriors den. โAnyone want to go hunting?โ He wasnโt the best of course but that didnโt mean Bearswipe wouldnโt try, at the very least he might find something big to take down.

|Nightstar|
|Starcave Patrol|
Listening to each of her warriors speak up to her words, the calico leader nodded her orange and black head. As they neared the camp entrance, she watched Lightningstrike slip into the camp, before turning to Cobrastorm first. "I completely agree with you, Cobrastorm. We will do that. I want two warriors posted at all times, Lightfall." She turned her attention to her ginger and gold deputy, amber eyes sparking. "Both are to sit outside the camp entrance. I want them to shift out so no one gets too tired. And whoever is on guard is to take turns with their partner, circling the camp, so we are completely protected." Her thoughts wondered to the queens and their kits and she immediately nodded. "Yes. Yes. And please warn Dewdrop and Applenose. While Brindlebriar's kits are 4 moons old now, Applenose has 3 moon old kits and even Dewdrops kits are 2 moons old. All are old enough to sneak off and cause havoc for us."
Finally, she turned her attention to Wildmane and gave the black molly a tap to the shoulder to show her that she had heard her concerns and voice as well. "With the patrols to scan out the dogs, we will watch for twolegs as well. There is much distance between camp and the canyons." Sweeping her tail out, she gave a quick nod. "Cinderblaze, head into camp, get some rest. You and Lightningstrike will be taking the Sundown patrol. I want you fully rested. And you can take Bearswipe and Walnutstorm with you this evening." After a moment, she gathered Cobrastorm, Lightfall and Wildmane around her, leading them away from the camp and deeper into the forest. "Let's get some hunting done. Then we can get to camp and discuss the plan with out clanmates. We'll all eat together tonight, as a group, so we can discuss as well."
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Thistletongue|
|In Camp|
Thistletongue had just returned from a border patrol, soon before his mate and three kits tumbled out of the nursery. While Brightkit, Acornkit and Rushingkit had grown and they still couldn't completely understand why they were denied from making friends with Dewdrop and her kits. Brindlebriar had taken the news the worst of the clan. Even Thistletongue had let up slightly on his harsh behavior towards the previous medicine cat. Yet, the tom still bristled when looking at Hawkkit, who resembled his father, Snake, the most. He knew many of the others fur prickled around the little tom, and many avoided the litter of kits all together.
As his dark green eyes scanned his own three kits, be moved slowly to where Brindlebriar sat in the clearing. Sitting at her side, his brown tabby fur just brushed her caliby fur. He didn't speak at first, almost feeling the tension rolling off of the pretty queen. She had been so uptight lately, so angry with the world. The warrior wished nothing more than to cheer her up. "The little one's will be apprentices in time for leaf-bare to hit us." He set his tail on hers as he spoke, giving her a little nuzzle. "What a season to have to start your training in. I'm sure they'll love that."
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Rushingkit|
|Camp Clearing|
Rushingkit let out a meowl of protest as their mother demanded they leave the den again. Every day was the same routine since Dewdrop's kits had been born. Come outside and play. Stay away from them. Nap at the far end of the nursery, as far away from Dewdrop as possible. With a sigh, the little blue/grey molly got to her paws and stretched each leg. While Brightkit was the largest of the three, muscle already built to her body, Rushingkit had the longest legs. Slender and delicate paws. While Acornkit was a short little fluff-ball. As Acornkit and Brightkit bundled out of the nursery, Rushingkit's eyes met Hawkkit's, who was watching the group with angry green eyes. With a slight squeak, the little molly booked it out of the nursery, practically barreling Acornkit over as he looked back with hopeful eyes to his two sisters. "Hawkkit is kind of scary! I'm glad mama won't let us be friends with them." The kits voice was loud enough to carry into the nursery, reaching the ears of the remaining two queens and their kits.
(I think we lost Ren again, so we will have to rp Brightkit. XD)
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Applenose-Hawkkit-Firekit|
|Nursery|
For the first moon, Applenose hadn't been able to bear the thought of Dewdrop in the nursery with her. Yet when the previous medicine cat had birthed her kits, Applenose had been at her side to help her with the four bundles. At first, when she learned that Snake had been the father to the four kits, it had angered the creamy furred queen. Now, as she watched Brindlebriar lead her kits out of the nursery, as she did often these days, a sad sigh escaped her. It wasn't normal to keep kits apart from each other. She had been letting her kits start to play with Dewdrops, but many members of the clan were on edge about her choice. Especially with Hawkkit. Running her feathery tail over her three kits, she touched a nose to each of their foreheads, before turning green eyes to Dewdrop and her family. "Good morning, you bunch full of flowers." Applenose's voice was so gentle as she addressed each of them, calling them flowers every morning. "Hawkkit, don't look so down. Once you're all apprentices, Brindlebriar can't boss those kits around anymore."
Angry green eyes flashed towards the queen and brown tabby fur fluffed up in protest. Glaring at Applenose and her kits, Hawkkit grumbled angrily, throwing a tiny paw in the air in protest. "Everyone hates me. And I just don't understand why. I didn't do anything wrong." He looked up at his mother with big sad eyes. "I don't understand."
Firekit hopped out of the nest he shared with him and his siblings, padding up to the nest that Dewdrop and her four kits were resting in. "Well, I don't hate any of you. Mama says father would have welcomed you all with warm paws. We'll be the best warriors this clan has ever seen, Hawkkit! You'll show them!" The silky tone of Firekit's voice was almost copy and paste to what Flameheart's had once been. He was almost identical to his father in every single way. "Dewdrop, you knew my father, right.? Was he always kind.?"
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Scorchstreak|
|Starcave Patrol|
Moving at her side, the large russet furred somali walked so close to here, their fur almost brushed. He moved quickly beside her, heading straight for the camp entrance. Blinking slightly as he watched the hindquarters of Nightstar, Lighfall, Cobrastorm and Wildmane padding off into the woods. The patrol had gone to the Starcave, why were they back so early.? And now where were they going.? Giving a shake of his head, he bumped Swansong's shoulder, leading the white molly towards the farmhouse. "You know. Pecanfeather will find something that will work, eventually. It's just going to take time. At least he hasn't asked you to retire yet. He just doesn't want you to push yourself to hard."
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Pecanfeather|
|Medicine cats den|
Pecanfeather had retreated to the fresh-kill pile, scarfing down a small mouse. Waiting for Scorchstreak and Swansong to leave his den, before pushing his way back in the comfort of his home. He had no more than padded into the den when the scent of Lightningstrike filled his den. With a heavy sigh, the russet brown somali turned and poked his head back out of his den. Warm hazel eyes scanned the black and white tom, before he flickered his feathery tail for the warrior to come into his den. "What can I do for you Lightningstrike.?" The faint scent of blood touched his nose, but he waited for the leaders brother to respond.
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Walnutstorm|
|Hunting|
A giant paw swatted Bearswipe as he was joined by Walnutstorm, who had grown just as large as the large tom. The tan/brown somali gave his previous mentor a big bump to the side with his forehead, before giving a teasing growl. "Hunting.? More like scare all the prey away, you big bear." The laughter was full in the young warriors tone, light orange eyes warm and happy. His days as a warrior had been one of wonder to him. They had taken down the gator, and soon after he had done his assessment, under Bearswipe's guidance and received his warrior name. Now, so shortly after, Bearswipe himself was back on his paws, and eager to be doing anything. It'd surprised everyone how quickly the brown tabby had healed, especially with a leg injury. Sweetberry had consistently taken Bearswipe, Skunkpaw and Rosepaw out to the lake to do excercises on their broken bones. It had made the recovery process so much faster. "Come on you big lump. You have more energy than a new apprentice." Trotting away, he headed for the camp entrance, just as eager to be out and doing something, anything.
-โฟ- โฟ-โฟ -โฟ-
|Sunflowerheart|
|Camp|
A small delicate molly stepped out of the shadows of the camp at the sight of Rainflight. Sandy golden and white fur was groomed and shiny as she approached the multi-colored warrior. Touching her nose to his in greeting, the usually shy molly blinked warm green eyes at the tom. While she had focused so much on her apprenticeship, she had just started to notice the devoted tom. She hadn't admitted to anyone, hardly even herself, but everyone could see she was padding after the younger tom. "Hello Rainflight. What've you been up to today.?" Sunhigh had approached and was bright in the sky, warming the camp in the leaf-fall chill. "It's nice to get some warmth in the camp after a chilly morning."

Cinderblaze - Forest/Camp - Open
Cinderblaze allowed her breath to slow down once she made it into the trees. The dogs had given the patrol quite a surprise, especially since they were so close to where the clan shared with their ancestors. She hoped Nightstar was right, and they would be gone within the next few days, but she couldnโt help but feel concerned. It had been a good few moons of peace since the gator had been killed, but it seemed to soon for something else to go wrong. Shaking herself from her thoughts, the pale ginger she-cat leaped down from the trees and landed beside the patrol as they started back towards the camp. She listened silently to the other warriors plan patrols, nodding her head in acknowledgement when Nightstar placed her on sundown patrol. As the calico leader lead her deputy and mate away from the camp again, she followed Lightningstrike into camp and headed for the fresh-kill pile.
Waspstrike - Camp - Bearswipe, Walnutstorm
Waspstrike yawned in his nest, glanced at Bearswipe as he called out. Taking a moment to stretch, the dusky and black tom stood up. โIโll go,โ he offered, dipping his head to Walnutstorm as he volunteered as well. Following the two out of the den and out of camp, he breathed in the scents of the forest. It was leaf-fall, but the weather was still beautiful. The tom just hoped that it would stay that way long enough for the clan to prepare for leaf-bare.
Sakura - Outside Leafclan territory - Open
Sakura lay in a patch of sun. It had been a while since she had last been visited by Snake or Lilac. The little tabby she-cat had come a little more frequently since her first visit, which made Sakura happy. Standing, the gray and white she-cat began to pad in the general direction of Snake and Lilacโs den, hoping to find one of them. Although, she was probably more likely to find Lilac since Snake would probably be out trying to find his girlfriend. Sakura shook her head at the thought.
Sunkit - Nursery - Dewdrop, Hawkkit, Nightkit, Mintkit
Sunkit gave a big yawn as Dewdrop nudged her. โGood morning, Mom,โ she squeaked, pushing up against the she-catโs pale golden chest. Turning to look at her siblings, she noticed Hawkkit sitting apart from them. Trotting over, she butted her head against his side. โOh silly. Why do you care what everybody else thinks? We love you and thatโs all that matters.โ She blinked sincere eyes at him and swished her tail toward their mother and siblings, indicating who she meant.
(Kynaโs out there as well, if anyone wants to rp with her.)

Lightninstrike || Clan Camp
Lightning ate. His eyes on his sister as she spoke to cats about organizing patrols in the area where the dogs were. It seemed odd ot him that three large dogs would just show up randomly in their territory, especially after the clan had just rid themselves of the water monster and other thorns in their side. If its not one thing, its another. Lost in thought, the dark furred warrior chewed. They were just dogs. This kind of thing happened often in other clans, the tales the elders told them millions of time as kits, how dogs would run free and find their way into the territory, yet leave soon after.
Lightningstrike blinked his eyes at his sister to let her know he had heard her commands to increase patrols, yet as soon as he was about to leave the area, Pecanfeathers loud sigh and voice got his attention. "Hello. If your not busy, i got some scratches from the dog chase. Not the dogs. The bushes. It happened while running from the dogs." The tom seemed to stumble and search for words. He had never really had to go to the Medicine Cat for help before, so he wasn't sure how to speak to him. Smiling awkwardly, he followed Pecan into the den, and waited for instruction.
Brindlebriar || Thistletongue
Brindle finished grooming herself. Thistletongue had returned from a patrol and decided to join her. "Hello." She mewed matter of factly. Whijle she loved her mate with every ounce of her being, the thought of the tom easing up on Dewdrop and her kits made her paws burn with jealously. It was an unspoken topic between the two, seeing Brindle was stuck in her ways. As he spoke of the kits becoming apprentices, a little hiss escaped her. "Once they are apprentices, they will no longer have me by their side to tell them to stay away from Dewdrops kits. I just hope that once they are old enough, they understand and can choose the right way on their own." She mewed, looking away from her mates eyes. She knew he would not agree with her or her words, but this was one fight she was not willing to have with him. "Whatever." She mewed in response to herself. "Im sure the kits will be the greatest warriors this can has seen. I mean, just look at how large Brightkit has gotten. She is nearly the size of an apprentice already." She let out a little laugh. Brightkit was her pride and joy, her one surviving kit. Although she had taken in Rushingkit and Acornkit after tragedy struck with their mother and she loved them just the same, something about Brightkit made Brindles heart swell in pride.
Brightkit || Rushingkit & Acornkit in the camp
Brightkit threw herself on the floor of the camp, the tiredness in her eyes not wanting to vanish. Her mother had a bad habit of of taking the kits out of the warm nursery to escape from Dewdrop and her kits. Brightkit didn't like them. If her mother didn't like them, why would she? She trusted her mother more than any cat in the camp. Catching Acornkit eyeing the kits that sat by Dewdrops side, she swiped a large paw over the little toms ear. "You better watch yourself. If mom sees you making googly eyes at the other kits, she will have you fur in her nest." She hissed, keeping her voice quite so Brindle didn't over hear their conversation. To their luck, she was in conversation with their father.
Acornkit || Brightkit in the camp
Acornkit yelped as Brightkit cuffed her ears. "Watch it!" He yelped, his head reeling in frustration. Looking over to Rushingkit, Acornkit spoke. "Why aren't we allowed to talk to them. Its so unfair. Imagine if we were them. Imagine if the clan looked at us weird because we aren't Brindles real kits." The words fell out of the little toms mouth, taking his happy spirit with them as they fell.
Rainflight || Sunflowerheart in camp
Rainflight dipped his head to the pretty she-cat. The two had never really spoke during their whole apprenticeship, seeing they were both super focused on being the best. "Hello." The tom mewed, a little to silkily for his liking. He felt his fur grown hot as the pretty she-cat looked him over. "Its a great day so far. The sun feels amazing, although, Nightstar spoke earlier of dogs in area, so if anyone goes out, they need to be super careful." Rainflgiht was always pointing things out to other cats, giving them direction and help, even if they didn't ask. Ducking his head, he looked up. "We could go out, if youd like." He mewed finally. |

/// Bearswipe ///
w/ Walnutstorm & Waspstrike on a forest path
The tom gave a hearty laugh at Walnutstorm's antics. It was still a bit strange to have his apprentice as a close compainion but Bearswipe hadnt realized just how much he'd needed a friend after the loss of Doeleap until the easy banter between them had grown. Wildmane had become more driven then ever before, seeming to leave any familial ties behind in favor of increasing her standing. Swansong meanwhile had nearly ripped his head off the last time he'd spoke to her, claiming she didnt need his company nor pity. Bearswipe was just tired and hadnt bothered with either of them, instead finding comfort n the way Walnutstorm seemed ready to fill the gaps. Though the Doeleap hole left on his heart couldnt be filled, things werent as difficult, least of all the humor that eased over him currently.
"Watch it lil' mouse, or this bear is going to show you what these big claws are for." Bearswipe plowed his broad head into Walnutstorm's shoulder in retaliation, the amusement similarly bright in his hazel eyes. The older tom had begun joking as though Walnutstorm was much smaller than him, something Bearswipe honestly found funnier than he should, the clan often watching on in fond exasperation at the playful pair.
Turning to Waspstrike the older tom gave a small grin and a polite dip of the head. "Thanks for joining us, though i hope you dont regret it by the end."
Without waiting for either toms reponse Bearswipe ducked into the tunnel and broke out into the forest, breating deep the freshly healed warrior tore off at a fierce pace, charging though the undergrowth just as his namesake could. Doing exactly as Walnutstorm had teased just to spite him.
* Wildmane *
w/ Nightstar & clan at Camp.
Wildmane felt like Nightsar had dismissed her warning pretty quickly but she kept her maw shut, something that had been coming a bit easier recently. Still sher couldnt help but think of the twolegs tearing up the forest in search of the dogs, scattering the thinning prey to more distant areas. Not good news with leaf-bare drawing near.
"We should set some warriors to reworking all the den's walls since they've been neglected with how few apprentices we have. Starclan willing they wont matter but it is a last line of defense." Her smouldering ember-like eyes finding Nightstar's. "If you'd trust me with the task I'll ensure it happens." The elders had always praised Wildmane for how her walled entrance seemed to keep out even the coldest winds from their tunnel-like den, the small she-cat had latched onto that praise in the face of Swansong's belittling and often worked the branches that made up the clan's dens.
... Dewdrop, Nightkit, & Lilykit ...
w/Hawkit, Nightkit, Sunkit, Firekit, Tigerkit, Mintkit, & Applenose in Nursery
Dewdrop breathed out a sigh as she stared into those familar green eyes. She couldn't tell him the whole truth, he'd only become even more bitter than he already was. instead she told most of the truth. "It's not you all that they dislike sweetpaws, it's your mother, I've hurt them all without meaning to and now some shortminded cats wish to punish you for my mistakes." It enraged her, not on her behalf but on her kits. They didnt even get an opprotunity at a normal clan life and she feared they would have a long road ahead of them before they were ever accpeted. Finally Dewdrop lifted her head to look down at Firekit. "Yes, you're father was a sweet and good tom. One of the best in the clan, you have his voice. When you're a warrior I'm sure you'll have his heart too."
Nightkit scowled just like his brother though it looked more like he'd eaten something sour than it looked intimidating. "No cat is sweeter than our momma." The young kit hissed and puffed up at Firekit. Dewdrop quickly shushed the runtish kit and pulled him closer to her side.
"Be nice, Firekit just wants to hear about his father." Nightkit hurrmped against his mother, before the kits blurry gaze drifted to Hawkkit, almost as if looking for approval.
Lilykit watched the exchanged both slipping in beside her brother, her soulful eyes sliding quizzically over the smaller kits. "So do you want to play? I promise Tigerkit wont bite... or I'll bite him for you."
~Swansong~
w/Scorchstreak near the farm
"We dont know that so stop acting a fool, it dosen't look good on you." Swansong grit the words out like she was too tired to even properly growl at him.
The wind made her squint agaisnt the open land the farm occupied. It was good land for hunting, not that she could do any of that, whipping her head away she wondered towards a bush and plopped herself under the leaves. "Well what a good time this is." She grumbled loud enough for him to overhear. "We could climb- oh wait could fall and die, well we could hunt- ah i might break my neck mid-jump... what about sparring- ohhh thats right im made a leaves and the brush of you paw will strike me dead, maybe we could go to the river and i could-" Swansong cut off with a choke and though it may appear as if she meant to, in all actuality she hadnt really though of what was coming out of her mouth till it was too late. The feeling of dark water trickling across her fur had the tall molly shivering, her pupils blown wide as she stared off into nothing.
< Sharpsight >
w/ Pecanfeather & Lightningstrike entering Medicine Cat Den
Sharpsight pushed his way into the Medicine Cat den, interest piqued by the smell of Lightningstrike. "Is that dog on you?" Sharpsight had keen senses and there was no denying that not only did he smell dog but also dog breath. Sharpsight's nose wrinkled instictively, making him look a bit silly since he had orange Marigold's trapped between his jaws.
The tom's slate grey eyes scanned over the older warrior and when he saw no injuries Sharpsight shrugged and sat just inside the den. Gently he placed the slightly wilted flowers at his feet, awaiting Pecanpaw's time. "Dont let me intrude, I can wait."

(Oh my gosh. YES. I forgot about that. So, obviously Hawk can't wreak havoc on the clan yet. But to be able to get his bad ways started, would be awesome! I thought maybe the first interaction with Owlmask in a dream, Owlmask can tell him who his father is and why the clan cats hate him. Help build his anger and drive him towards the path of revenge.)

(OMG I can see that. Basically turn him against everyone and everything by saying that everyone's been lying to him from birth, even his mother, and that he's the only one he can depend on.)
