I'm ighr with a time skip)
Oakleaf flicked his tail. "First I'll teach you the jump and pin," he said. "What you want to do is to leap and using your surroundings like a tree kick off against it to land on top of your opponent. So it is similar to the leap and hold, just more steps to it. As this requires more precision in what you do." He shot a small glare to his apprentice.

Redjaw sat beside the lake in camp, her tail still behind her. Her head was down. She stared at the water in front of her, her mind lingering on how Briarleaf had passed on to starclan. Her heart was heavy and she sighed before laying down and restig her head on her paws. Silverrose noticed that Redjaw layed by the lake and padded up to her. "Hello. How are you feeling?" She called out as she approached. "I'm doing okay i guess, I just can't believe it. You?" Redjaw answered. She turned to face silverrose.

"I'm doing okay. I was pretty close to Brairleaf." Silverrose said. She licked her shoulder and sighed. "I don't know how Cedarsong will cope while taking care of the clan but he will have to. Plus training Meadowpaw." She shook her head.

Birchpaw doesn't flinch from his glare. This sounded easy enough and would be a good time to reedem himself. "Okay anything else we should know?" He asked.

Fresh starters for anyone to find. Jademist I think we discussed Sootwing finding Flora, Fawn and Doe?( Flora, Doe, and Fawn Open -Edge of the Territory Flora coughed loudly and took a gasping breath. She paced forward nosing Doe and Fawn forward into a clearing near the clan's territory. Sje coughed again wheezing and spitting up a little blood. "Help" She called. "Help me and my kits." She cried out stumbling forward. She and the kits crossed into clan territory before she fell to the ground. Doe looked sadly at her mother. She had been coughing the past few days and had only been getting worse. She tried to push Fawn ahead of her and keep her from seeing the blood. Fawn bounced along ahead of Flora and Doe. She was unfazed by her mother's coughing and crying out. She had said they were going to meet clan cats today. And Fawn was always excited to meet new cats. She didn't notice the scent of blood as Flora coughed. Heronpaw Open Heronpaw was out hunting again early in the morning. He left about the same time as the dawn patrol but he took off in the opposite direction. Willowpaw Open Willowpaw lay dozing in the Apprentice's den. Her front legs covered her face as the sun started to peek through the windows of the cabin. She sighed and sat up looking around the den. Rosebriar Open Rosebrair layed on porch of the warrior's den her jaws parting in a big yawn. She sighed and got up looking for someone who was calm enough to talk to. Silverrose Open Silverrose sat down near Hawkstar's den waiting for the clan to wake up. She hoped that it would be unlike the day a few sunrises ago when Briarleaf died. She hoped that everyone would start copinh with the death and stepping forward in their lives. She knew it would he hard for the other elders and for Cedarsong and herself. She watched as Heronpaw and the dawn patrol took off from camp. Melonburr Open Melonburr was part of the Dawn patrol. He kept pace with the other cats scenting the air for anything out of the ordinary. (I was hoping they wouldn't find Flora and the others. I want a single warrior to do that.) Wrenwillow Open Wrenwillow slept hard in the warrior's den. She was curled into a ball next to Melonburr's nest. She had no clue her mate was gone and exploring the territory. Brackenheart Open Brackenheart sat on the porch of the elder's den drinking in the morning air. He felt at ease despite the loss of Briarleaf. He knew his own time would come soon and Frostflower's too. He sighed hoping he would go down fighting to protect his clan though he also hoped nothing would happen to the clan for a great while. Turtlepool Open Turtlepool trotted around camp trying to avoid getting achy. She wondered what her family would be doing right now if they were still alive from the fire. She desperately hoped she would be visited by their spirits in her dreams but doubted it would happen. She also hoped Cherrydapple would visit her. As she was her only surviving kin.

Crowley Open
Crowley sat at the edge of clan territory watching to see if any cat was coming his way. His den wasn't far from the border and he liked to share the herbs in his garden with the medicine cats. His owner didn't mind much because the garden was a bit overrun. He sighed and turned in a circle. He got bored when no one talked to him.
Crowflight Open
Crowflight sat in camp near the freshkill pile. He had picked up a small mouse for himself to eat and slowly ate it. He finished and took the bones fo bury in the forest. He then went back to his spot and began to bathe.
Ryesplash Open
The tom trotted out of camp ahead of the dawn patrol. He was off to go hunting in the denser part of the forest where the trees grew closer together and the light was dim.
Foxclaw Open
Foxclaw got back from his walk around the camp and climbed into the den. He jumped up onto a matress where his nest was and curled up. He sighed and fell into a fitful sleep.
Frostflower Open
Frostflower sat near Brackenheart on the porch but didn't speak. She was still depressed over the loss of Briarleaf and had trouble eating and sleeping. She looked a little worse for wear and she still cried in small bursts when she remembered the medicine cat was gone.

(Okay! Oof yeah, it will scar him but that's fine haha. Sorry I just now saw that you said the same at the top of your post!!)
// Sootwing had set off on a lone hunting trip near the clan borders, he hadn't been in the mood to talk to others this morning and it would be good to clear his head. He'd just caught a squirrel and buried it below a bush when he picked up the distressed sounds of an unfamiliar cat. His head perked up in alarm. It didn't sound like anyone from Cinderclan. He needed to check this out. Quickly he made way to the clearing where the cries were coming from. To his suprise he spotted a she-cat; she looked quite sick. And two small bundles of fur. Warily he took a few steps closer but made sure to still keep his distance. "What happened to you? Who are you?" He asked as he took in their surroundings, making sure to keep an eye on the kits as well.

Flora looked up feebly when ahe heard a voice. "I'm Flora." She managed before coughing again. "Please take my kits I'm sick." She said a cough wracking her body and blood dripping from her mouth.
Fawn bounded up to Sootwing and sniffed him. "Hi are you a clan cat? Flora said we were going to meet clan cats today." She pranced around unaware of Flora's statement and coughing.
Doe looked from Flora in concern to Sootwing in utter fear. She hissed at Fawn to get back and huddled close to her mother.

Lizardstripes Open
Lizardstripes leaves the elder's den and takes a long stretch. He sits down and begins to groom his fur. He eyed the camp entrance wondering if he could get away with leaving camp to hunt for a little bit. So far, no one appeared to be paying much attention to him. He rises to his paws and carefully starts making his way over.
Cherrydapple Open:
Cherrydapple flicked her tail as she figures out what to do next. She considered going out to hunt to clear her mind.

// Sootwing wasn't sure what to do. The she-cat was obviously and knowingly tresspassing but she was also in a very bad shape. He didn't trust outsiders for one bit, however the code taught him to be compassionate towards kits and sick cats. Besides, he couldn't just let them die out here. It wouldn't sit right with him. He ignored the little kit chatting at him, trying to gather his thoughts as to what the best plan would be. The dawn patrol was probably too far off by now to call for help.. The best thing to do was to find either Cedarsong or Meadowpaw in hopes of saving Flora. "I'm going to get help." Sootwing meowed, glancing over at the sick she-cat. "I'll take your kits to be cared for." He promised her, hoping that would give her some peace of mind. He knew just the right cat for the task; Crowflight always had more of a soft spot for kits, in this he was totally opposite to Sootwing. He didn't really care for the small babbling critters himself, he'd rather wait until they were able to hold a full conversation.
// Cloudpaw emerged from the apprentices den, ready to take on the day. Even though Briarleaf's death wasn't too long ago her mood had improved significantly. But then again, she probably was incapable of staying sad for too long. In the corner of her blue eyes she spotted Lizardstripes sneaking out of camp again. It wasn't the first time she'd seen the old tom silently stalking off. Maybe he'd like some company. She walked after the elder until they were out of camp to not expose him to the other clanmates. "Can I come with you?" She blurted out excitedly once they were out of hearing distance.

Flora coughed some more her eyes clouding with pain. She smiled when Sootwing said he would take the kits. There was blood dried on her mouth. "They are 5 moons old." She said before having a final cough shake her body for a long minute before she finally shut her eyes and grew still. She was no longer in pain and you could tell from the slack in her muscles.
Doe who was right next to her mother was destroyed by her death crying and growling at Sootwing. She fought the urge to drag Fawn back agaisnt her mother's body since the other kit seemed not to notice.
Fawn was still bouncing around trying to get Sootwing's attention. "I'm Fawn and my sister is Doe. Like Flora said were almost 5 moons." She babbled on.

// Sootwing had been ready to run off but it was already too late. He wasn’t even sure what he just witnessed. Now he just stood there, frozen. A shiver ran over his spine at the sight of Flora’s lifeless body. The sound of Fawn’s voice seemed very distant in the back of his mind and it felt like ages before he could bring out a word. “I.. uh - we have to go. You have to come with me.” He shook out his fur, trying to get rid of the uneasy feeling that creeped over him. Going up to Flora’s body, he used his paw to softly close her eyes. Then he turned to Doe, he had a hunch she’d be much harder to separate from her mother’s body than Fawn. They couldn’t stay here alone though.

Lizardstripes jumped when he suddenly heard a voice behind him. He whips around to see Cloudpaw standing behind him. He considers telling the apprentice off so he could be alone but decides against it. Besides, she might return back to camp and tell everyone. "Fine but don't get in my way! I may be limp but I am still one of the best hunters you will ever meet!"

Fawn skipped around as Sootwing said they needed to go. She nodded and stood waiting for him to show her the way. "I'm excited to go on an adventure with you." She purred looking out at the trees.
Doe growled as Sootwing came up to her and Flora's body. She stepped away from her mother as she grew cold.n Flora's breathing no longer ragged as it had stopped. She started to cry slightly. Just a few tears sliding down her face. "Why didn't you help her." She growled at the tom.

"Just be accurate with your jumps," he stated. "Birchpaw you go first. " He flicked his tail to the tom. "Use the tree over there." He gestured with his tail towards where he was referencing.

(How long was the time skip Dark?)
// "Ok, ok. I won't. I promise!" Cloudpaw smiled contently, glad that the old tom let her come with him on his secret trip. "So, where are we going?" She asked, her tail rippling excitedly behind her. It would be nice to see Lizardstripes in action. She'd picked up a few stories about his glory days, he had been a great hunter so she could probably learn a lot from him. And maybe he had some fun stories to tell from before she was born, who knew!
// "Good." Sootwing meowed, glad that at least one of them was willing to go with him. He turned back to Doe, taking a small step towards the kit. "It was already too late.. But now I need to help you two. I promised to get you to safety." He tried to explain it as best as he could, though in the back of his mind he wasn't totally sure what he could offer them. Would Hawkstar take two lone kits in? He'd leave the decision in the leader's paws. First these two needed to come with him to camp.

She frowned at her sister's grumpiness. "Come on Doe lets go on an adventure with him." She whined. Doe looked at Sootwing and then at Fawn. "Fine I'll go with you. But only for her sake. And we have to bury Flora." She spat. For being just a kit she was firey and grumpy.

(Okay thanks!)
// Sootwing shrugged lightly. He was trying to be understanding and patient with the situation but the little kit was quite delusional, thinking she'd survive even one day alone in the forest. "We'll bury her after we get you two checked out in camp." He replied to Doe and gently dragged Flora’s body under a bush. It wasn’t right to leave her body out in the open. Cedersong might have to check the cause of death, so burying her right now would probably not be a good plan. “I don’t want to leave your mother’s body like this too long, so it would be best if I carry you two.” He glanced from one kit to the other.

Fawn frowned at Sootwing. "I don't want to be carried but okay." She said. She walked over to him and sat down.
Doe looked up at Sootwing with wild eyes. She was glad he moved Flora's body under the bushes but hated that she 3as gping to leave her mother but she had to protect Fawn. She was far too naive to be left alone.

Ember34 Mother Dark // “Thanks.” Sootwing meowed as Fawn walked up to him. Doe didn’t seem very convinced yet but at least she wasn’t protesting this time. He craned his neck to pick up the two kits, keeping their scruffs firmly in his jaws. Once they were set the warrior took off as fast as he could with the two kits dangling from his mouth. It felt totally different to carrying limp prey, and heavier too. It definitely took it’s toll on his energy level. After a while of running and sometimes walking quickly in between they finally reached Cinderclan camp. Immediately he went over to the medicine cat den in the old general store and set the kits down at his paws. “Cedarsong?”

"We will head over to the pond." Lizardtail mewed as he begins walking in that direction. "We will hunt for fish and maybe some mice if some are nearby." He said keeping his eye open for anything. "Do you know how to hunt for fish?"

The kits clumped together at Sootwing's paws. Fawn tried to smile at Doe but she was turned away. Then she smiled at Sootwing. She thought about talking to him bit he seemed distracted and trying to get someone's attention.
