(Wow. I fell asleep and slept the entire day. D: And sadly I won't be on throughout the weekend. I can try to get something up for everyone tomorrow, but there is no promises at all. I'm sorry everyone. It's a huge week for me. I am switching positions, so I'm working my current position and training at the same time, so I have no days off. And I've been super busy with wedding planning at the same time. D: I will however, be on after work for most of next week. As I only work until 4:30 in the afternoon.)

(Reposting for you, Tai. As I don't know if you saw these and it gives you something else to rp to until I can be on. Taiyou) 
Almondpaw
[Apprentice][Molly][11 Moons]
With; Twilightblaze(Taiyou )
Where; In camp.
While the day had felt long to Almondpaw, she couldn't help but feel like she could contribute more to the clan. As she settled beside her mentor, sharing a large thrush, her mind didn't settle to Twilightblaze's reassurance that Nightstar hadn't forgotten the apprentices. Yet, as a patrol with both her brothers and Sunflowerpaw had left with Dewdrop, Lightfall and Wildmane, she couldn't help but get her hopes up. If they were going to the Starcave, they were one step closer to apprenticeship. "I hope my name is something amazing," She glanced at her mentor for a moment, before murmuring slightly. "I kind of hope Nightstar names me after you. Almondblaze. Can you see it now."
A purr rose up in the little fawn somali's throat as she took a bite of the thrush. Chewing contently, she looked around the camp. While many were in camp, she could see more leaving. The day never came to an end, it seemed. While they were already half-way through the day, she knew many that would patrol all through the night. She, personally, had never been out at night. Glancing at her mentor, she gave her a playful nudge. "What if we went out on a night patrol tonight.? I've never been on one."

Ice
[Loner][Tom][36 Moons]
With; Russet(Taiyou )
Where; Wondering.?
Walking through the undergrowth, Ice worked his way after the scent of his brother. It didn't take much for him to pick up the familiar scent of the brown and tawny tom. Moving with a purpose, he gave a wave of greeting at catching Russet not far from their den. Slipping up to the tom, he flicked his ears gently with his thick tail. "Well, Russet. I feel like I haven't seen you in days. Where have you been.? What have you been up to.?" Shaking the rain from his black and white fur, Ice gave a stretch of his legs, a yawn taking over him. While he often kept to himself, Ice had felt a bit of loneliness at his brothers absence.

Dewdrop watched from the mouth of their den as Pecanfeather busied himself, chattering aloud as he was oft to do when nerves set in. The words tightened the pained feeling in her chest as she knew soon these would be the words of her medicine cat and not those of her apprentice and companion.
Finally her eyes drifted to her own pale paws and the slight swell pushing against the back of her forelegs. Bits of mud stuck to her here and there, as well as a few stray leaves. Glancing up she noticed Pecanfeather in a similar condition, his body so small with his damp fur flattened to him.
Why had she tried to walk two paths at the same time? Couldnโt she have just taken Pecanfeather as a son and felt fulfilled through him? Why had a mate and kits tempted her so strongly? Being a medicine cat hadnโt been her choice at first, having been trained from so young but sheโd grown to love it. Caring for her clan as a mother might. Why hadnโt that been enough?
She thought of green eyes as rich as new-leafโs first buds, her heart twisting. It hadnโt really felt like a choice then either, how hard sheโd fallen for those eyes, that gaze. The one that saw more than just the surface.
Pecanfeather made a small, soft sound of contemplation, rousing her from the heartache of Snake and their different lives. Instead she looked at the young tom before her and felt a different sort of heartbreak.
โWhy donโt we share tongues, one last time in our den... for as long as we can call it that.โ Dewdrop eased herself to her paws, ignoring the ache from her cooling body. The traveling finally catching up to her.
โโ
Swansong hadnโt really noticed they were back in camp till Scorchstreak was urging her down into her nest. Thankfully only a few napping warriors remained in the den, their drowsy gazes slipping over the pair without really taking note of them.
Still it brought Swansong more into the moment, her discomfort at everything finally pushing past the numbness. Tightly curled in her nest, ears flat, she lay as still as she could, spasms and shivers shaking her occasionally. The warmth of Scorchstreakโs touch startled her and she bristled even as the tom began to sooth the flustered fur down with his steady, soothing licks.
Normally the two of them were like flint, striking against each other until a fire blazed. It was how she liked things, to make him see red and finally leave her alone. Now however she couldnโt even find the strength to open her jaws and eat, much less bicker.
This weakness in her, she didnโt want anyone to see it and yet no doubt warriors would soon begin to take note, ask questions and talk. It would make her want to claw theyโre eyes out. Yet Swansong didnโt even know if she had the strength to do that anymore. To strut around and demand respect, to back it up...
What was she going to become? A cripple? Would she be forced to move into the elders den?
Feeling sick to her very core, Swansong through cation to the wind and pressed her head into Scorchstreakโs side. Doing her best to stop the shaking as emotion swept through her like a dark wave once more, threatening to take her under one final time.
โโ
โOf course I did.โ Bearswipe answered. It should have been him leading Walnutpaw up those slopes to the cave to stand watch, to make such a big step in a apprenticeโs training. The least he could do is sit and wait, yet as Walnutpaw grinned so too did he, pushing away any stray thoughts.
This was Walnutpawโs time and Bearswipe was more than glad to see his absence hadnโt affected the young tomโs monumental journey. โYouโre brother has done us all proud, just as you have. I bet it wonโt be long now till youโre the one getting a name.โ
Bearswipe butted heads with the younger tom again, smiling truly for the first time in what felt like seasons. โI couldnโt be prouder.โ It was much more personal that his first complement, showing just how grateful he was to have Walnutpaw as an apprentice. A bit of brightness to guide Bearswipe on so many dark days.
โโ
Sharppaw side eyed the pale molly as she settled nearby, his unconsciously cold gaze raking over her prey and pelt. It was uncommon for the other apprenticeโs to approach him so openly and though he wouldnโt admit it, the proximity set him on edge.
Still Sharppaw knew the importance of the bonds that tied clanmates together and in turn the entire clan. It was his duty to be a good clanmate just as it was to hunt and protect.
โYeah we hunted.โ Sharppawโs mew was low and soft, followed by crunch of gristle between his teeth.
Just cause he knew what to do and even, through some flawed sense of duty, wanted to, didnโt mean he was particularly good at socializing. One of the few qualities of himself he overlooked, or just misunderstood.
After a bit of chewing he added, โAnd you?โ His slate grey eyes sliding back to Snowpaw.

Waspstrike - Camp - Morningdew (โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ)Waspstrike grinned at Morningdewโs agreement, taking another bite of the rabbit. Following her gaze, he nodded sadly. โQuite. It is certainly an unlucky time right now.โ He spoke with sympathetic voice. Wrapping his tail around his paws, the dusky warrior allowed his eyes to travel around the camp. There had to be something the clan could do to get rid of the gator, and then maybe they could all take a breath. โThis is much worse than just a bout of greencough though, so the clan must have done something. But I can only imagine what we could have done to make Starclan angry.โ Waspstrike lowered his head slightly and sighed. Sakura - Her den - Lilac (โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ)Sakura watched with amusement twinkling in her eyes as the molly jumped before explaining herself. Nodding, she glanced around the small space inside. โNo, I donโt think I want to hurt you. You clearly arenโt a clan cat.โ She gave a small huff before taking a few steps into the den. Settling herself beside her prey, she motioned for the other molly to join her. โIโm Sakura.โ The gray and white molly bit into the squirrel, keeping one eye on the other feline. She looked quite a bit like Snake, so Sakura assumed this was the sister he had talked about. โWhatโs your name?โ Kyna - Twoleg Clearing - Ace (Brindlebriar)Kyna turned her head as another cat raced toward the twolegs, calling out to her. She took one last glance of the twolegs before darting around them and leaping onto a low branch. Climbing higher, she didnโt stop until she was sure no twoleg could reach her. Then, once hidden behind the leaves, she scanned the forest for the ginger and white cat. Kyna cringed at how far up she was, but breathed a sigh of relief when the twolegs began to move away. Slowly, she scooted down the tree, mouth parted for any scent of that cat. She wanted to thank her, and perhaps find an ally.

(Hiya Friends. I am getting a post up now for a meeting from Nightstar. I am just going to go through it, assume everyone gathers and go through everything. Everyone can respond how they would like. :3 I expect some issues with the whole Dewdrop situations. Lots of backlash.
Points-
-We are going to assume that Cobra and Night spoke to Lilacdawn and got the idea to shove a couple of freshly killed rabbits full of deathberries and put it besides the pond.
-Briarpaw will get her warrior name.
-And I will do the announcement of Dewdrop last.)

Nightstar
[Leader][Molly][32 Moons]
With; Everyone.
(Taiyou Brindlebriar ~Skyblaze~ Fallenleaves
renaissance Robinbreeze )
Where; Meeting.
While Nightstar had moved from her den to join Lilacdawn and Stormpatch with Cobrastorm, the patrol with Dewdrop returned to camp. Making sure to keep her gaze on Lilacdawn as she spoke, her ears swiveled up to overhear Walnutpaw telling Bearswipe Pecanfeather's new name. Giving a slight nod, she focused her attention back to the eldest member of Leafclan. The blind calico Persian had been telling her a story of before even Speckledflame had been born, of a gator that wreaked havoc on the clan. A chuckle had formed in the elderly molly's tone as she continued on.
"We thought we were doomed then, as you all do now. We lost many members of our clan when that gator struck. Took out a whole patrol one time." Her voice trailed for a moment and she seemed to grow sorrowful. "That was the day my oldest kits had been killed. I had two of them in that litter and they both were on that patrol." After a moment of silence, she shook her head and continued on. "After that day, we decided to poison the monster. We took three rabbits, Fresh of course, and shoved them full of deathberries. We placed it on the bank, right by the stream. That creature swiped up those rabbits immediately."
As Nightstar opened her maw to protest, a small white paw waved to shush her. Lilacdawn flicked her smaller than average ears and continued. "Before you even protest, Yes. I know this gator isn't tricked by dead prey. However. I heard that lightfall blinded it, which means it'll be hungry. Hunting will be hard for it. Leave the rabbits by the water, let the blood seep into the stream. It will come. It will eat. And it will die."
With Lilacdawn's words coming to an end, Nightstar ran her thick tail along the elder's spine in a gesture of appreciation. Touching her nose to the molly's cheek, she murmured her appreciation, before turning and padding up to the meeting stump. Hopping on to her stump, she sat down and wrapped her tail over her paws. Turning solemn amber eyes on the clan, she lifted her head high and called out to her clanmates. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather around the meeting stump for a clan meeting."
It didn't take long for her clan to gather around her. Her whiskers twitched in disapproval as Pecanfeather led Dewdrop from the medicine cat's den and sat near it, not exactly joining the ranks of the clan. Lightfall took her place near the meeting stump, looking over the clan with her. After everyone seemed to gather, Nightstar gave a curt nod, before speaking. "As we all know, the gator is a huge threat. I have spoken with Lilacdawn and it has come to my attention that this has happened in the history of the clan before. Lilacdawn has mentioned that they killed the gator with deathberries, by stuffing freshly killed rabbits with them and leaving them beside the stream." She paused to make sure everyone was listening, before going on. "As Lightfall managed to blind the gator on our last attack, it should take the bait. Tomorrow, a patrol will come out with myself and Lightfall and we will get rid of this gator, once and for all."
Meows of approval seemed to rise around her and she could already see certain warriors nodding their heads and watching her intently. Of course, she supposed they would be wanting to join her. After the murmurs died down, the calico leader continued. The look of joy in her eyes, was enough to make anyone believe that all that was left, was good news. Settling her eyes on the brown and white apprentice before her. She'd done a fabulous job on her hunting assessment, catching prey in each part of the clans territory. "Briarpaw, It is due time for you to receive your warrior name. Please step forward."
As the apprentice stepped forward, Nightstar jumped down from the stump she was standing on. Padding up to Briarpaw, she stopped in front of her and lifted her head towards the sky. "I, Nightstar, Leader of Leafclan, call upon our warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and commend her to you as a warrior in her turn." Turning her large eyes back to Briarpaw, she blinked warmly at the molly before speaking gently. "Briarpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, and protect and defend your clan, even at the cost of your life.?"
"I do."
"Than by the powers of Starclan, I give you your warrior name. Briarpaw, from this moment on, you will be known as Briarfrost. Starclan honors your , and we welcome you as a full warrior of Leafclan."
Resting her head on the newly named warrior's head, she waited for the lap on her shoulder, before stepping back and listening to the clan greeting Briarfrost. Once the cheering died down, Nightstar moved back to the stump. This time, however, the leader stood at Lightfall's side.
"Lightfall. You are now without an apprentice, and as you have already taken responsiblity for dear Snowpaw..It only seems fit to name you as her official mentor. I know you will teach her well and help her grow from the loss of Flameheart." Turning to where Bearswipe sat with Walnutpaw, she sighed softly. "Walnutpaw. You are without a mentor, once more. As you are only one moon away from your warrior ceremony, it seems only fit that you learn the skills of many mentors. Each warrior will take turns in passing on their skills to Walnutpaw here. Bearswipe. You may be without use of your leg, but you are still Walnutpaw's mentor. You will oversee his training with the other warriors. Each evening, I want you to take time with Walnutpaw and discuss what he has learned, find areas for which he can improve. Let him show you his skills. Challenge him to do better. You have been a wonderful mentor in the short time you have been with him, and I plan to give you another opportunity, as soon as the kits in the nursery are 6 moons old."
She let the mentors give their approvals of her choices, before growing silent. Her face grew still and her eyes became emotionless as she moved on with her meeting. She was hesitant for this last part, her heart aching in her chest. She already knew the backlash that Dewdrop would receive from the clan. As well as the argument, that some may believe she deserved to be exiled.
"It is my duty as the leader of this clan to give both good news and bad news. First, I would like to welcome Pecanpaw as a full medicine cat of Leafclan. He has just returned from the Starcave. He will now be known as Pecanfeather. Starclan knows, you have helped this clan plenty and no one here doubts that you are deserving of your name. Welcome Pecanfeather."
For a moment, Nightstar let the clan greet the newly named Medicine cat. Offering him words of encouragement and cheer. Yet, the look the little russet/brown somali gave Nightstar, made her fur prickle uncomfortably. He was unhappy with her and she understood why. Yet, she had a duty to her clan, and she had to do what was necessary.
"Unfortunately, with this news, comes the worst news to share. It has been brought to my attention that our medicine cat, Dewdrop, is expecting kits. Wh..."
Her words were cut off abruptly by the cries of outrage within her clan. Shock filtered through many of the warriors and apprentices, while others spoke their outrage without fear.
"No wonder Starclan is punishing us! GET RID OF HER!" - Scorchstreak
"It's because of you that we have lost so many of our clanmates!" -Sweetstorm.
"EXILE HER!" -Thistletongue
"ENOUGH." The snarl erupted from the leader as she flattened her ears. Her long and fluffy tail lashed behind her as she addressed her clanmates. Eyes blazing, she continued as the outrage grew quiet. "Dewdrop will be forced to step down as Medicine cat. Pecanfeather is now the medicine cat of Leafclan. Dewdrop will move to the nursery. She is your clanmate and we will not force her out. Especially with her expecting kits. We are warriors, not rogues. MEETING DISMISSED." With a final lash of her tail, Nightstar stepped away and sat down. Cool amber eyes traveled over her clanmates, watching them all as they broke up. Voices rose all around her as members of her clan expressed their thoughts.

โใใใใใโใใใใใโ  Wolfspirit || Thistletongue
โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ
Inside CampWolfspirit gazed at the water, waiting. He wasn't waiting for anything in particular, it was just that his paws had lead him there when he left the camp for some quiet. Cats rarely came to the stream anymore, so he knew it would be just what he needed.
Thistletongue had joined him a while ago. Wolfspirit was thankful for the large toms company. Wolf had very few friends in the clan, but he had taken to Thistletongue quickly, their temperaments very similar.
As Thistle worked his way down the branches, Wolf kept his eyes forward. He wasn't to thrilled with the idea of going back to the camp already, but as a Warrior, he knew he couldn't stay out here in the trees forever. Lifting his large tabby body off his paws and down the branches to where Thistletongue had headed, he sighed. "I'm coming."
Just as the two toms had reached the camp entrance, the call from their leader to join a clan meeting got his attention. Lifting his ears in curiosity, he glanced and his companion. "What do you think this is going to be about?" He had been out of the camp most of the day, so the warrior had missed Pecanfeather and Dewdrop leaving to go speak with Starclan.
Chanting with the clan as the new apprentice became a warrior, he lifted his head to yell it to the stars. "Briarfrost! Briarfrost!"
The warriors chant was cut short as Nightstar revealed why Dewdrop had been away from camp so often, it was because she was a traitor. Snarling, he slid his claws out. "I agree with Thistletongue! She shouldn't be here!" He growled, his eyes slits, glittering in anger. "She is the reason so many have died!" He mewed. โใใใใใโใใใใใโ  Ashestream || Eaglecry & Molestep
Returning to camp
โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ renaissance Ashestream had returned to camp with his little patrol a few moments before his leader had called a meeting. Perking his ears as the new warrior was named, he chanted with the rest of his clan.
As Nightstar told what Dewdrop had done, the anti-social, usually quiet tom yowled with the rest. The traitor deserved to be kicked out! There was no place in Leafclan for cats who broke the warrior code, not this bad at least. The little grey tom flattened his ears as Nightstar reproved the cats for voicing their opinions, making his grow silent. "Ridiculous." He hissed to Eaglecry and Molestep. โใใใใใโใใใใใโ  Rainpaw || Sunflowerpaw
โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ
Outside the Apprentice Den
Rainpaw lifted his head as Sunflower spoke to him. "It just... mentor problems." He grumbled, not lifting his head from his paws. "I think I upset Scorch, but I'm not sure how... He sent me home early from training without any explanation, and I haven't seen him around in days. Im not sure what happened." He sighed, pulling himself up into the sitting position.
The little apprentice as lost in his own thoughts when the call for a meeting rang in his ears. Deciding to listen from his spot, he perked his ears. Briarpaw had been made a warrior! His little heart skipped beats in excitement for the fellow apprentice gaining a new name. "Briarfrost! Briarfrost!" He chanted, letting the new warrior know that the apprentices approved. "Man, the den is going to be weird with out her here. Although Rainpaw hadn't ever really spoke to her, it was always nice having a full den.
The meeting went on. Warriors were given new apprentices, setting things right since the death of beloved warriors set things off kilter. What was voice next confused Rainpaw. "Dewdrop doesnt belong here!" Someone shouted from close to him. "Exile her!" Thistletongue snarled. Rainpaw flattened his ears. The clans Medicine Cat was with kits, and by the looks of it, Dewdrop had fought her demons to tell her leader. She had already undergone a large punishment on her own. Looking around, Rainpaw kept quiet. There was no point in spewing hate to the new queen of Leafclan, regardless of it was a horrid thing. She would still need the support of someone to get through this.
Once things had calmed down, Rainpaw leaned over to Sunflowerpaw. "Who do you think the father is?" He whispered, noticing how Nightstar had neer mentioned. "I'm sure who ever it is must feel horrible..." His mind drifted to his mentor. What if it was Scorchstreak? Was that why he had been sent home early that day? Did Scorch meet with Dewdrop and reveal the news? Shaking his head to free himself from the thought. There was no way his mentor would do that. Scorch wasn't that empty-headed.... โใใใใใโใใใใใโ /GettyImages-1015612954-05c4e57546a8492a80bc0fae74681114.jpg) Brindlebriar || Applenose
โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ
Sitting outside the nurseryBrindle watched as her kits finished their first warrior meal. "Now you will never want milk again!" She laughed, licking their swollen bellies. Her heart was so full. She had lost kits during her birth, but gained more when Starclan had seen fit, giving Brightkit the siblings she deserved.
As the little family finished up, Nightstars call rang through the nursery walls. "Come Apple, sit with me outside while our kits rest. Its been a while since we've had a meeting, so this one should be good!" She mewed, slinking out of the den. She had decided to stay close to the nursery incase Applenose or her own kits woke up.
Briarpaw had been named a warrior, mentors were given apprentices, things were starting look good in her eyes, the clan was finally getting back up on their paws. Purring as the clan chanted the new warriors name, she dipped her head out of respect for Briarfrost.
What was voiced next shook Brindlebriar to the core. Dewdrop, is expecting kits. The words of Nightstar seemed to fall to the ground, the cats around her sitting in a shocked silent for mere moments before yowls broke out everywhere. "She will have no place in the nursery with my kits!" Brindlebriar snarled, her fur rising. Nightstar must have lost her mind to think someone so unworthy should share the nursery with innocent kits and queens. "She is going to ruin all the kits!" She hissed, stalking forward until her soft fur blended with her mates, anger making her eyes glow. It was rare that the queen ever felt anger, but this was so shocking to her, she wasn't sure how to react. โใใใใใโใใใใใโ  Ace || Kyna
Forest
Robinbreeze
Ace darted back into the tree, barely missing the paw of the smaller two-leg grabbing for her as she ran past. She had done well distracting the two-legs from the other cat caught in harms way, but at what cost of her own. Climbing with quickness, she made it safely up into the hidden foliage. Breathing heavy, she hadn't even realized she was a branch lower than the cat she helped.
The two-leg grabbed its kit and loped off, back onto the trail where they had come from. Sighing very loudly, she blinked. "Well that was fun!" She laughed, thinking she was alone. |

(Iโll wait with Dewdrop till everyone has had a chance to reply)
Bearswipe had hobbled over to join his clanmates when the meeting had started. Heโd chanted with the rest of them and felt humbled as Nightstar praised him. When sheโd promised that Walnutpaw was still his apprentice and that he was to oversee the toms training Bearswipe actually beamed. Even with his head bowed a brightness seemed to grow from him. Once heโd raised his head he did his best to control his expression but still looked to the other brown tom and gave a cheerful flick of both ears.
Bearswipe was on such a high that it took a moment for his leaders last few words to sink in. Pecanfeather, the missing golden she-cat, it all made sense now. As the chorus of hiss and yowls rose, the grin slipped from his maw. Big hazel eyes found Dewdrop at the back of the crowd with her head turned away and her tail curled tightly round herself. Pecanfeather was by her side, obviously showing support. It was heartbreaking to see and he felt pity for the former medicine cat. The decision that was to be made... he just couldnโt imagine turning out a queen to fend for herself, let alone one that hadnโt been trained as a warrior.
โI say she has served us faithfully for many moons and deserves a second chance at the very least! Let alone the fact that she is with kits and has no warrior training! Sending her off on her own is as good as killing her!โ Bearswipe bared his teeth as the image of the golden molly dead with a swollen belly or watching her own kits die when she bared no milk. โI would be ashamed for all my days to know I turned my back on a queen and her kits! If I werenโt in such a state I would go with her into exile just to ensure a gentle she-cat doesnโt die for one mistake. As it is I call on all toms here, only the worst fox-dung would allow his mate be exiled alone while bearing his kits! Donโt hide like a coward, step forward and share her blame!โ
The words rushed out of him, his fur standing on end as he spoke. The image of his own mother, faceless as she was, fighting to defend her kits till her dying breath came to mind. โI am the kit of a queen doing her best to protect her kits, look what that got her! Would we really damn our former medicine cat to the same fate?โ
As the last of his words left his maw Bearswipe glanced around to gauge his clanโs reaction.
โโ
Wildmaneโs ears flattened as the clan reacted, chaos was all around her and within. It enraged her to know that Dewdrop had betrayed them all. Sheโd never been sure of Starclanโs power but if Dewdrop was to blame then Wildmane wanted to claw her ears off.
Doeleap had died so Dewdrop could have a mate? The little black mollyโs claws dug mercilessly into the earth below her paws, ripping and tearing. Still Wildmane heeded her leaders words, Nightstar was watching and she would do her best not to disrespect such a direct command. Still... it was no easy task for Wildmane.

Swansong is sleeping (albeit roughly)

Pinecrest had remained at the tunnel, not wanting to reckless abandon his post just cause heโd been called. Still he was able to listen all the same and call Briarfrostโs new name just as well.
Yet when Dewdropโs betrayal had been revealed the tom had cringed away. He agreed with his clanmateโs rage but when he looked at Dewdrop. She just looked pitiful. Pinecrest was glad to remain unnoticed in this debate.
โโ
Sharppaw didnโt miss the way his older brother tucked himself more into the shadows than before and the pathetic sight made his fur stand on end. โThose who donโt respect the code should be punished by it!โ He yowled, standing so his piercing eyes could reach Pinecrest. โIf she hides behind her kits then sheโs even more of a coward! What happens after theyโre born?โ
It was unlike the stoic tom to raise his voice or show much of his feelings yet heโd never been more clear. In both his feeling towards code-breakers as well as his last remaining bit of family.

Waspstrike - Camp - Morningdew (โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ)Waspstrike turned from the rabbit and his conversation with Morningdew as Nightstar called the clan together. Cheering for his new den mate, he sat up and curled his tail around his paws. The dusky tom narrowed his eyes when the calico leader finally addressed the gator and the curses that seemed to have fallen over the clan. As his clan mates argued about the former medicine catโs punishment, he turned his eyes toward her. She clearly regretted what she had done, and Nightstar was right. If they exiled her now, they would be no more than dirty rogues. Yet, he didnโt voice his thoughts. Waspstrike knew Dewdrop had served them well, but she could have served them more and not been out to see a tom. Glancing in Bearswipeโs direction, he nodded. She definitely deserved a second chance. Cinderblaze - Camp - OpenAt the call from her leader, Cinderblaze pushed the bones of her meal aside and padded to join the group in front of the tree stump. As the new name of the new warrior rang around the clearing, she yowled along with everyone else. โBriarfrost! Briarfrost!โ Her gaze traveled around the camp, coming to an abrupt halt when they settled on Dewdrop. She wasnโt celebrating like the rest of them, and instead looked as if she was a kit during a scolding. And sure enough, when Nightstar explained, voices rose to scold her even more. Had she really gone out, against the code, and met with a tom? With she really with kits? She did look plumper than usual, but the ginger molly would have thought it was all the green-leaf prey. And which one of her clan mates had been secretly meeting with the medicine cat, and was now to cowardly to admit their mistakes? Hissing under her breath, Cinderblaze twisted her head to try and find out which tom looked guilty enough to be the father. Sakura - Her den - Lilac (โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ)Sakura watched with amusement twinkling in her eyes as the molly jumped before explaining herself. Nodding, she glanced around the small space inside. โNo, I donโt think I want to hurt you. You clearly arenโt a clan cat.โ She gave a small huff before taking a few steps into the den. Settling herself beside her prey, she motioned for the other molly to join her. โIโm Sakura.โ The gray and white molly bit into the squirrel, keeping one eye on the other feline. She looked quite a bit like Snake, so Sakura assumed this was the sister he had talked about. โWhatโs your name?โ Kyna - Forest - Ace (Brindlebriar)Kyna peered down at the exclamation that came from below. Grinning softly, she nodded. โI guess, if thatโs what you want to call it.โ She clambered down to be eye level with the other cat, momentarily forgetting the height. โIโm Kyna, by the way. Uh, thanks for saving me.โ The tortoiseshell molly crouched lower on the branch, waving her tail behind her for balance.

Cobrastorm
Warrior
Camp
After speaking with Lilacdawn about dealing with the alligator, Cobrastorm felt the plan would free the clan from the jaws of the water monster once and for, live in the clan would return back to normal but as he followed Nightstar at the den and settled down for the clan meeting he knew that wouldn't the case with the news she was going to announce. Cobrastorm gave a small chant with the others but soon fell silent as Nightstar told the clan of Dewdrops' actions, it didn't take along before everyone threw out yowls and hissing in disagreement and disgust. Cobrastorm looked at Dewdrop sighing, she would be force to live with such shame for life because certainly most in the clan wouldn't forgive her, the same fate was going to happen to her kits such little innocent lives being judge because their parents, as Bearswipe mentioned she deserved a second chance he nodded in agreement. "Any one calling her to be exiled is a foxheart, warrior training or not casting a queen out is wishing harm on her and her kits is just shameful and unforgivable!" He snarled recalling his own parents, he was lucky his father was willing to join the clan but that didn't make things easier at first. As for Dewdrop, it seemed she was in this battle alone since no tom was named the father or no-one was willing to share the rage of their clanmates, such cowardice made Cobrastorm's bristle with anger.
Twlightblaze
Warrior
Camp w/ Almondpaw
Twlightblaze turned to Almondpaw as she mention wanting her warrior name to similar to hers', a sense of proud filled Twilightblaze as she purred softly and brushed her tail along the ground. "You wouldn't want to be named after old me." She meowed playfully, every warrior and apprentice had a different relationship and if she ever got the chance to have another apprentice, she silently wished they would be like Almondpaw and she looked forward to the day when Almondpaw became a warrior and got her own apprentice. "A night patrol? Perhaps we can let's see how the rest of the evening goes." After taking a few bit of the thrush, Twilightblaze pushed the rest for Almondpaw to finish and as she got ready to take a quick rest, Nightstar called for a meeting. Twilightblaze gathered with Almondpaw and the rest of the clanmates for their leader's announcement. Good and important news was shared first but the next words out of Nightstar's mew sent the clan in a state of shock, Dewdrop the clan medience cat was expecting kits. It was hard to believe but judging from Dewdrop's expression it had to be true and she wondered who the father was and as such Twilightblaze felt no needed to join in with the scolding and backlash believing she had no right to judge the new queen at the end of the day that would be between Dewdrop and her conscience.
Russet
Rogue
w/ Ice (โฅ๐๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ฑโ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ขโฅ)
Russet was settled in a clump of grass when the scent of another cat filled his nose, it wasn't another rogue or Leafclan cat but his brother, Ice and Russet let out a huff as Ice came over greeting him with a tail flick. Although Russet didn't show it much, he enjoyed his brother's company the most and he would try not to worry about Ice so much but couldn't help it, he was the only kin he had now even though brother would go off to do their own things they would always come back to each other. "I could say the same about you." Russet gave Ice a playful nudge. "I've exploring the forest only to meet a few annoying cats and most of them were those strange cats that call themselves warriors of Leafclan." He meowed. "What about you? Where did you limber off today?" |

Thistletongue
[Warrior][Tom][57 Moons]
With; Pecanfeather, Dewdrop and everyone.
Where; Fallenleaves
Thistletongue seemed to bristle even more at the argument's between the clan. Nightstar's snarl for the clan to quiet down didn't seem to phase a single warrior. Heated as warriors joined in with him, insisting that the medicine cat be banished, he stepped up, Brindlebriar had moved to his side, and the two looked twice their size as they turned on not only Dewdrop, but Pecanfeather and Nightstar as well. Coming nose to nose with Dewdrop, he flattened his ears, green eyes blazing with anger. Long and sharp claws dug into the ground as he snarled in her face. "You think you deserve a place in this clan, Fox-dung.? After everything you've caused this clan." He bared his teeth at her, muscles tight beneath his flank as if he was about to attack her. "What makes you think you or your kits produced from code-breaking will ever be fully welcome in this clan.?" His tail lashed behind him as he spoke.

While Sweetberry was usually the calmest and most accepting molly in the clan, her creamy white fur bristled as she faced her past medicine cat. She couldn't help but hiss in anger as she watched Peacanfeather rise to defend her against Thistletongue and Brindlebriar. How could the tom defend her, after leaving him to fend in taking care of the clan, time and time again. "She abandoned us, in our times of need! How could any of you defend her! She will just allow her kits to live the way she has. They will be code-breakers, just as she is!"
Blue eyes flashed as she turned on Wildmane, trying to get a rise out of her. "Wildmane. Your sister died in the anger she caused out ancestors." Flashing a look towards her sister, she questioned Applenose. "What about Flameheart! He'll never see his kits alive. They'll never know their father. You'll never feel his presence again, because of her!" She sliced the ground with sharp claws, tail brushed out as she turned to Bearswipe who was defending her. "You think her sins are okay now. Yet, would your sister believe the same thing as she rots in her grave because of HER!" She threw a white paw towards the medicine cats. "We lost so many good clanmates. SO MANY. Duskmeadow. Amberblaze. Taloneye. Flameheart. Doeleap. Thistletongue and Brindlebriar's kits didn't even stand a chance!" She only listed some of the ones that had fallen in the last few moons.

He stepped forward to speak louder. His voice strong and carrying around him. "We have warriors here with parents outside of this clan. And warriors who have no blood-line directly to us at all. Every single one of them has proven they belong. So why should Dewdrop be chased out.?" He blinked warmly at the medicine cat. "I support her staying. She belongs with us. Always has." He turned to Ashstream, his good eye questioning. "Being good warriors doesn't mean there is no room for mistakes. It also means that we must be willing to accept something that we can't change.

White and silver fur crawling with disgust, the warrior simply growled under her breath. Shaking her head sadly, she glanced at the tom beside her. "I wonder which fox-breath is the father around here. It makes me sad that they would let her face this alone." She shrugged slightly before continuing.

"You're nothing but a bully, Thistletongue! Leave her alone!" He slammed a large paw to the ground in anger. "What if it was one of your kits that decided to break the code.? Would you want them chased out, or would you defend them.? What about you Brindlebriar.? What if it was one of your blood who made the same mistake!?" He hoped Dewdrop would speak up and defend herself against the clan. Turning to Bearswipe, he looked up to him with large hazel eyes, Hoping Sweetberry's words hadn't effected his thoughts on defending Dewdrop.

Wildmane bristled as Sweetberry began shouting into her ear, which in response had flattened against her head. The rage, it was so overwhelming her stomach turned. With a horrible wrenching, Wildmane spun away from her clanmates to dry heave into the grass.
Tears built in her eyes as she gagged and gagged, body trembling with the swirling storm of emotion within. The world around her deafened and fell dark, Doeleap flashing behind her eyes, her way of comforting scolding and the brush of her fur as she settled between her and Bearswipe... where sheโd belonged.
Wildmane had always wanted to fit in, to be apart of the clan, that she often scorned her siblings for their cliquish behavior. Now she wanted to take it all back, she just wanted to see her sister again, feel her fur brush against her side, hear the sound of her meowing...
And it was all Dewdropโs fault...
โโ
Bearswipe swayed as he stood up but held himself aloft and his head high as Thistletongue and Brindlebrair descended on Dewdrop, spitting and raging. All the fluffy fur along his sides and back fluffed out to the max, the large tom growing almost double in appearance.
Mentally he cursed his bad leg as he awkwardly shuffled forward to join his apprentice. As he was in the process of taking up a defensive position Sweetberryโs yowl finally sunk in.
The slightly timid, gentle tom had never felt true rage before. Never at a clanmate, never once. Yet as the words sank in an expression never before seen on him slid into place, gone was any Bearswipe the clan had known. Instead a beast seemed to replace him.
Bearswipeโs wide brown head fell as he twisted to face Sweetberrry, his kind and cheery eyes blown insanely wide while nearly every fang in his head was on full display. The look was one of a crazed cat, a rabid look.
โDonโt you tell ME what MY sister would have done you wretched piece of crow-food.โ Bearswipe snarled, the sound low and dark. Normally Bearswipe would have spoke of how Doeleap would wish for unity and forgiveness but those conceptโs were just as foreign to him as he currently was to his own clan. โSay her name like you know her again and Iโll show you just how little you know.โ He spat the words, spittle and foam flying from his maw. Even with his injury Bearswipe cut an imposing figure in the swathe of cats surrounding him, only Walnutpaw and Thistletongue werenโt completely dwarfed by his puffed up look.
โโ
Dewdrop felt the heat off Thistletongueโs breath as he yowled in her face. Her gaze however was downcast, her eyes wide and body trembling.
Fear, rage, and sorrow all coiled within her like some huge dark snake, squeezing and suffocating her insides. Struggling just to breathe Dewdrop barely heard anyone but the yowling tom practically touching his nose to her brow.
She had to speak, or they really might exile her or worse... still the idea of lifting her head was almost unbearable.
Finally she felt Pecanfeather press his flank tightly to hers and the hot breath of Thistletongue leave her face. Shaking like a leaf Dewdrop finally picked up her head, her eyes wide and shining with shock. The response had been even worse than sheโd expected. Warriors all around were spitting and yowling, both at her and at each other.
All because of her mistake? All because kits were in her belly? All because Starclan was irritated?
โI didnโt mean to hurt anyone!โ She cried out and though the words fell on deaf ears, Dewdrop still looked to Nightstar. Pleading even as she bared her fangs instinctively against the raging cats around her. โI just wanted love like everyone else!โ The words were bitten out between sobs, her eyes clenching closed as she tried to hold back tears. โWhy would Starclan kill the innocent over my mistake! Why wouldnโt they just kill me?!โ Her eyes flew open to meet Nightstarโs gaze once more. โIf Iโm a villain then so are the stars above us!โ Yowls of protest rose up almost instantly but Dewdrop couldnโt stop the words from leaving her maw. If she was to die, if her kits were to die, all because dead cats wanted to control her life, then she wasnโt going to just roll over. โI may have set them off but it was Starclan who killed our clanmates!โ

Nightstar
[Leader][Molly][32 Moons]
With; Everyone
Where; In Camp.
(Taiyou , ~Skyblaze~ , Robinbreeze , Brindlebriar , renaissance , Fallenleaves ) *Please see Lilacdawn's post first.*For many many heartbeats, Nightstar let her clan bicker amongst themselves. Her ears stayed pricked up high, and her amber eyes were narrowed as she scanned each of her clanmates. Fur rising on her shoulders, the leader was stone cold and silent. It wasn't until Dewdrop's sparkling blue eyes locked on her gaze, that she moved. Yet, the simple movement was a flatten of her black ears as her lips drew back in disgust. The medicine cat's words rang in her ears, the pleading, as she argued with her angry clanmates. While she wanted to snarl at her old medicine cat, her words caught in her throat. What Dewdrop stated, was true. While she had been the one to anger Starclan, it was their ancestors that let the fallen felines die. Yet, even then, was death out of Starclan's paws.? Was everything a simple coincidence.?
After what felt like a lifetime of processing, Nightstar finally flickered her ears back up, yet before she could speak, Lilacdawn was snarling at her clanmates, batting Thistletongue over the head, chasing him and Brindlebriar back away from Dewdrop and Pecanfeather. The blind elder was sweeping everyone with blind clouded eyes. In those very moments, it felt as if the oldest feline of Leafclan, could see each and every one of them. After letting the calico Persian say her piece, to not only the clan, but to the leader herself, Nightstar finally swept her bushy tail in an order of silence. Standing high, she gave each and every warrior and apprentice a stern look. While she agreed that they had a right to be upset, each of the warriors defending Dewdrop. spoke the truth.
Keeping her voice level and strong, the calico leader commanded for her warriors to listen. "Now each of you has said your thoughts on this. And while I understand many of your frustrations, Dewdrop is our clanmate. She is a queen. And while some of you..." She paused to give Thistletongue, Brindlebriar, and Sweetstorm a hard stare, before continuing on. "Will not budge on accepting Dewdrop, many of your clanmates believe the right thing to do, is to accept what can not be undone. Dewdrop, you will have a place in Leafclan. As will your kits. Please make yourself a nest in the nursery. Brindlebriar and Applenose. While it may be hard for you, I EXPECT you to be kind to Dewdrop. You don't have to be her friend, but you will not be rude."
Whipping around, Nightstar started towards her den, once outside it, she paused and sat down. "Everyone is dismissed. Cobrastorm, Lightfall, Cinderblaze, Wildmane and Lightningstrike. I want you all to come meet with me. You will be the patrol to join me with Briarfrost tomorrow. We must discuss what I have planned. I don't want to lose any more of my warriors."

Where; In Camp.
*Please see Lilacdawn and Nightstar's post first.*
While it took the russet brown somali a moment to process all the outbursts, it was Thistletongue's that surprised him the most. The very large brown tabby had strode up to him and Dewdrop and had shoved his face into Dewdrop's. The snarl the erupted from him as he confronted the pale gold molly caused the newest medicine cat to flinch slightly. So many looked so angry, half at Dewdrop herself, the other half at their clanmates for being angry at Dewdrop. Yet, Nightstar just looked on in pure silence, watching them all with a cold and stony look. It was the first time that he had ever seen her so shut down.
He was about to move forward to shove Thistletongue away, when Lilacdawn shoved Brindlebriar away and then moved up behind Thistletongue. Waddling up on old bones, the elderly calico swiped Thistletongue over the back of his head, hissing in fury. A gasp escaped from Pecanfeather as the warrior turned on the elder, claws flashing and paw raised. It wasn't until he realized who it was, that he stepped back, paw dropping. The angry tom allowed the elder to chase him away from Dewdrop, ears flattened.
It wasn't until Lilacdawn spoke her piece, that the Leader of Leafclan called the meeting to an end and called certain warriors to join her. His head sinking, the young somali gave a heavy sigh and shuffled his paws anxiously. He wasn't little anymore, he was now in control. Yet, something about Dewdrop leaving made panic set into his chest. What if he did something wrong.? What if he needed help.? Why couldn't she stay with him.? Could she stay with him.?
As the clan started to move away, Pecanfeather waited for Lilacdawn to finish her words towards Dewdrop, before he swept his long feathery tail along her spine. Leaning in, he offered her a nuzzle of comfort, before nudging her towards their...His den. His eyes glowed with a fiery defiance, as if threatening anyone to challenge him. At one moment, his gaze locked with Nightstar's amber eyes, who opened her maw to speak, but ended up looking away with a grunt. "Come on, Dewdrop. You're going to stay with me for a couple of days. I want to monitor you. So much stress for an expecting queen is not good for the kits."

Thistletongue bristled as Pecanfeather started at him, Dewdrop not even turning to look at him. He was just about to screech again, when a swipe to the back of his head had him whipping around. Eyes blazing with anger, he towered over the feline responsible for pulling him away from the old medicine cat. Paw up and claws flashing, the tabby went to strike at his attacker. A gasp from Pecanfeather hit his ears and his eyes met the blind and clouded eyes of Lilacdawn. Immediately, the tom lowered his large paw and took a few steps back, shock flickering in his green eyes. Allowing the old molly to chase him back towards his mate, he flattened his ears and grumbled irritably. Turning back around, he watched as Lilacdawn stood before Dewdrop and waited for her to plead her case, before the calico elder spoke her own part.
For a moment, the warrior just growled, but then it was quickly cut short as the leader turned sharp eyes on him and his mate and scolded them like kits in front of the entire clan. Behind him, he could hear Bearswipe snarling at Sweetberry. Shaking his head, he wrapped his tail around Brindlebriar and led her back towards the nursery, eyes flashing in frustration. He knew he would have to accept Nightstar's decision, but he would NEVER accept Dewdrop and her kits. They may live in the clan, but they would never be clanmates of his. "Come, Brindlebriar. We must check on our kits. I'm sure all this noise has woken them up."

Where; Warriors Den.
While Swansong had fallen asleep almost immediately, Scorchstreak still stayed by her side. The russet furred tom had moved slightly away from the white molly once he had groomed her dirty fur back to its normal white color. He had heard Nightstar call a meeting and had moved to the entrance to the warriors den, ears pricked up. Yellowish orange eyes flickered from the shadows of the den as he simply watched and listened to the chaos before him. At first, the meeting had seemed wonderful. Good news, really. Briarpaw was now Briarfrost. Lilacdawn had guided them in how to hopefully get rid of the gator. But then...The news of Dewdrop expecting kits, seemed to be a bomb that dropped on the clan.
While so many seemed to screech and snarl their rage, others spat and hissed back in defense for the once great medicine cat. Scorchstreak simply sighed and shook his head. While it had been his brother that had been killed, he couldn't imagine that his death was at the cause of Dewdrops sins. Starclan couldn't be so cruel as to send the gator their way. Not over something that seemed so small and silly. Shaking his head, the tom turned and gazed over the white feline that looked so peaceful in her nest. While it may have only been for the moment, it was a relief to the older tom after seeing her struggle not too long before that. Rest was all she needed, and his heart pulled him to stay with her. While he had been her mentor at one point, and the two had always had their ups and downs, something was pulling him to the white molly that he just couldn't explain at that very moment.

Nothing could have prepared Sweetstorm for the fury that Bearswipe unleashed on her. While Thistletongue was swiped back by Lilacdawn, Sweetstorm was silenced by the vicious looking down. She cringed, flinching away from him. Her creamy white and peachy hinted fur bristled as she crouched before the large tom. He was over double her size. Wide blue eyes filled with panic as she twitched her tail uncomfortably. Stepping back, she kept her maw shut as Walnutpaw slipped between her and Bearswipe. Thank Starclan for the toms apprentice. Moving back, she ended up closer to Wildmane, gaze flickering to the dark furred molly in a slight panic that the warrior would lash out at her as well. A low growl rumbled in her throat as she tensed up, preparing in case Bearswipe launched at her. She'd never seen him so angry before.

Watching is mentor, who never seemed to have a mean bone in his body, lash out at Sweetberry, startled the brown somali. Taken aback, he watched with mouth gaped open for a slight moment, before pushing forwards. While his mentor had fluffed out to twice his size, Walnutpaw was still larger than Sweetberry, and facing the angry tom wasn't as scary. Coming face to face with Bearswipe, the apprentice batted a paw to his mentor's chest, trying to move him away from the crowd. Hissing under his breath, he tried to break the raging eyes from Sweetberry, to face him. "Bearswipe. That's enough. You are better than this...This outrage." Swallowing hard, the tom almost mentioned something about Doeleap, but he quickly decided otherwise.
After a moment of silence erupted around them and Nightstar demanded the meeting end, Walnutpaw flicked his ears. He didn't back down from his mentor, praying to Starclan to help him. "Fighting isn't going to get us anywhere. Sweetberry has no clue what she is talking about. All these angry clanmates, the best we can do is stick up for Dewdrop. Defend her against their backlash." His voice held strong as he spoke, eyes locked on Bearswipe's.

Tiny ears pricked up on her pudgy head as she moved closer to the medicine cat. It wasn't until Sweetberry's snarling erupted, that Lilacdawn could sense the anger rise even more. Scenting Pecanfeather's fear scent rise, she listened as heavy pawsteps moved towards the medicine cats and Thistletongue's voice rose up. Slinking up, Lilacdawn batted at Brindlebriar, pushing her back towards the nursery. Then the calico Persian slipped behind Thistletongue and swiped him over the head. She didn't flinch when her fur swayed slightly at the power of him whipping around.
Drawing her lips back in a snarl, the elderly molly nipped at the brown tabby, chasing him back towards his mate. She stood firmly with Pecanfeather, protecting Dewdrop from any more backlash. The molly had spoke up to defend herself. Sweeping her clan with a frowning look, blind eyes pierced each of them. One would think she could see, each and every one of them, if they didn't know any better.
"At this very moment, I am ashamed of all of you. Are we a group of savaging rogues.? Or are we a clan that vowed to protect and defend our clanmates, no matter what.? Dewdrop made a mistake, she fell in love and is now carrying to sins of that choice. Her punishment is large enough. Not only does she face this without a mate, she has been removed from her position." Shaking her black and orange head, a sigh escaped the oldest molly's chest. "Nightstar, this is your clan. But you need to control your warriors. Everyone makes mistakes, but Dewdrop has served us well and she deserves the support of her clanmates. If she is to be exiled, I will leave with her."
When Nightstar finally spoke, defending Dewdrop as well against the angry felines, Lilacdawn gave a weary huff. Turning to the old medicine cat as Nightstar called the meeting to an end, she touched her nose to the pale golden molly's. Her smushed face warm with comfort. "I will stand by your side and defend you through all of this, Dewdrop. And if those queens give you too much trouble, you are always welcome in my den." She paused with a little laugh, before resting a delicate white paw on Dewdrop's shoulder. "Time's are hard, and the clan is mourning. It makes pointing blame and being angry, very easy. While others don't support you, there are others who will stand by your side. You are our clanmate and some of us haven't forgotten everything you have done for us."

While his brother butted his shoulder in a playful nudge, the large white and black tom gazed at his brown speckled brother. Icy silver eyes met bright green eyes as his brother explained his adventures. When the question turned to him, he simply flexed his claws and settled on his haunches. Licking his black paw, he drew it over his face before answering. "You remember that rogue, Snake.? I was wondering around and met up with him again. Apparently him and some of the other rogues have been causing trouble for those clan cats. He asked if we would join them in attacking their patrols."
A small snort escaped the loner as he looked around them. It was nice to be closer to home after wondering most of the day. "Did you meet anyone interesting from the clan.?"

[Rogue][Molly][35 Moons]
With; Sakura(Robinbreeze )
Where; Sakura's den.
Relief washed over Lilac as the pale grey molly relaxed and kindness seemed to wash from her. Moving forward slowly, the little brown and white tabby slunk to her. Once by her side, she settled with her chest under her paws and watched her start eating what was left of the squirrel. Her pale green eyes filled with curiosity as the name washed over her ears. "Sakura..Snake has mentioned you before." She paused as she thought of her brother, wondering where he was. "I'm Lilac. Snake doesn't bring me out much. I can't hunt very well or fight. So It's safer that I stick close to home or with him.." She trailed off as she thought of the fact that once again, he'd wondered away for days. "He hasn't been around in a couple of days. Have you seen him.?"
