Spottednight rolled over, hoping to sleep in for a while longer but the sun was too bright and it traveled through the thickets and stone that hid away their camp and showed through the entrance of the warriors den. She rose from her bed of moss, looked around, surveying who was still asleep. She could make out the black body of Ravennight, and of course the soft grew pelt of Mistfeather resting beside her. She slipped out of the warrior's den and padded over to the prey pile and spotted a few rabbits, a brownish bird, possibly a sparrow, and a mouse. Their prey pile looked a bit empty; perhaps she find someone to go hunting with her. But for now she picked the bird and sat near the warriors den

Furzestar Location: Camp With: Turkeyjaw ( Feathertalon) While some cats were still asleep, Furzestar didn't want to waste another moment, slipping out of his den underneath the Hightree, and leaping up onto the fallen tree. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the Hightree!", he called, and waited. It took a bit for the cats that were awake to wake anyone still asleep, but he waited, until he saw almost everyone outside. He figured some cats might be out in the territory, but they'd hear the news soon enough. "After several days with no deputy, after Longwing's death, I have made my decision for her successor.", he said, before turning his gaze to Turkeyjaw. "Turkeyjaw shall be LightningClan's new deputy. Dawnstar always spoke very highly of you, and you always put your Clan first. You will make an excellent deputy.", he said. Runningshadow Location: Camp With: Flareclaw ( {Azure}) Runningshadow had been about to comment on Flareclaw's words, when Furzestar had called for attention. He waited with the rest of the Clan for what the anouncement was, chuckling slightly when Turkeyjaw was named the new deputy. "Well, guess Furzestar won't have to do it after all.", he said, looking amused. Lostdawn Location: The Moor With: Dragonfly ( Ember34) "Thanks.", Lostdawn said with a slight purr. "Well, maybe, but I do enjoy having company while hunting. Makes it go by faster. Besides, we can try and tagteam a rabbit or two.", she said. "I'm very good at ambushing. Darkstalker and I do a lot of hunting as a pair.", she said. |

Greyfoot watches on silently approving of Furzestar's choice of deputy. He liked Turkeyjaw well enough and hoped he would lead the clan to greatness.

rippleshine walked aroud the lightningclan camp, looking for something to do or someone to talk to. flareclaw was eating with runningshadow and he was a little hurt but also used to it. he wanted to be flareclaw's mate since... forever. but he knew runningshadow had the tom's heart. lucky him he thought crossly and reminded himself that they were clanmates and he shouldn't resent him.

flareclaw camp runningshadow ( runningsky123) flareclaw finished his dove and padded over to rippleshine who exitedly greeted him just as he did runningshadow. he couldn't possibly... right? the tom was left at camp as a kit and they'd been friends ever since, but could it be that ripple shine felt more for him? he loved runningshadow but wasn't sure he'd ever love him back. (i want someone to help rippleshine confess to see what drama stirs up >:3 ) |

Turkeyjaw »
On most days Turkeyjaw was one of the first cats to get out of the warriors’ den and start the day. He’d hang around camp just long enough to hear Longwing make out the day’s patrols, but the past few days had not been like that. Longwing had sadly been taken away from LightningClan to join the ranks of StarClan, her passing still hanging heavily on the shoulders of LightningClan cats. The molly had been a good deputy, noble and quick to make decisions. Her leadership had been looked up to, a cat that could inspire any other. Furzestar had been wise in promoting her to deputy, but now she was gone, and the Clan lacked the second authority figure that they so desperately needed. While Turkeyjaw was not one to rush another, especially the Clan leader, he had been eager to hear the calling of an announcement from the leader.
And finally, it seemed as if today was the day.
Upon hearing the leader’s voice ring out across camp, Turkeyjaw stepped away from the pile of old moss he had collected. The copper eyed tom had noticed quite a few of his Clanmates leaving camp already, so he had decided to hang around and help out with housekeeping chores. As of right now they only had three apprentices, one being a medicine cat apprentice, and while Emberpaw and Brownpaw did their fair share of work around the camp, Turkeyjaw knew it never hurt to help them out, especially since they needed to focus on battle and hunting training just as much as they needed to care for the Clan and those stuck inside camp.
The gray tabby settled himself down just in time to hear Furzestar announce his decision to appoint a new deputy. Turkeyjaw’s eyes glanced around the camp, curious to know who the leader had decided on. There were a number of warriors in the Clan that could easily step up and take the deputy position. Grayfoot would make for a good choice, he thought. The tom could become a little snappy at times, but every cat had their flaws.
It took a minute before the gray tabby registered that his name had been called out, and once he realized, his copper eyes went wide and his jaw came open, slack in shock. Slowly he got to his paws, eyes looking up at Furzestar with shock and pride. Turkeyjaw had not expected to hear his name coming from the leader’s mouth. He had never been the type of cat to look for leadership, rather, he did as he was supposed to and did what he could to help his Clanmates. Turkeyjaw knew he was a hardworking and loyal warrior, but the idea of Furzestar even thinking of him as a candidate for deputyship had never once crossed his mind. ”I…thank you, Furzestar. I hope that I can make you and the Clan proud. I know I can’t fill Longwing’s pawsteps, but I’ll do everything in my power to continue where she left off.” Turkeyjaw stood tall, still shocked that he had been given such an important promotion but also proud of himself. He had just proved that his hard work and dedication had paid off, and he vowed to continue doing his best and more.

Spottednight was about finished from eating her bird as she spotted Furzstar walking out with a surprising amount of happiness. The tom had seemed so stressed while deciding who to choose as deputy or he at least seemed a bit nervous. Spottednight watched the Furzstar leap onto the fallen tree and listened thoughtfully as he announced the new deputy. Hmm, Turkeyjaw is wise and very kind; he'd make a fine deputy. She purred, approving of his choice. Turkeyjaw often helped his clan mates even when he wasn't asked and hardly complained. He'd do what was right for the clan. Shed have to congratulate him later after he adjusted from the shock he seemed to be in

Furzestar Location: Camp With: Turkeyjaw ( Feathertalon) Furzestar waited until the scattered cheers for Turkeyjaw had dissipated before he leapt down off of the Hightree, and over to the gray tabby. “I know you will, which is why I chose you. Longwing had mentioned before that you would make a good deputy.”, he said. Longwing had been an older cat, not much younger than Dawnstar, and had been cognizant of the fact that she might not be around long enough to become leader. She would often make remarks to Furzestar about potential replacements for her, and Turkeyjaw had been a favorite. “I’ll of course help you with patrols and whatever else for a few days, to let you get the hang of everything.”, he said. “I don’t just want to throw you to the foxes.”, he said with a soft purr. Ravennight Location: Camp With: Greyfoot ( Hawkeyes258) Ravennight walked up to stand beside Greyfoot, yawning slightly as she did. She stayed quiet during Furzestar’s announcement, but leaned over slightly to Greyfoot afterwards. “You would have been a good choice too.”, she said. While she wouldn’t directly consider the two of them friends, she did like Greyfoot. He was dutiful and very accomplished, always doing more for his Clan when he saw the need. Grasspaw Location: Medicine Cat Den With: Daydrift ( Feathertalon) Grasspaw had poked his head out for the announcement, before slipping back into the medicine den, where Daydrift was continuing their task of sorting the herb stores, tossing anything old so they could collect new herbs. “Furzestar made Turkeyjaw the new deputy.”, he relayed to his mentor as he sat down across from her, reaching out and pulling the small bundle of comfrey towards him, starting to pick out the older, limp leaves. “I think he’s a great choice. I like him.”, he said. Turkeyjaw had been very kind to his mother when she’d been with the Clan, and had promised Elvira to watch over her kitten when she had decided Clan life wasn’t for her. |

Emberpaw Location: Camp With: Brownpaw, Turkeyjaw, Darkstalker ( Feathertalon) Emberpaw had woken up to Furzestar's first yowl to gather, having watched the announcement from just outside the apprentice's den. He perked up when Turkeyjaw was named as deputy. He was the deputy's apprentice! That had to count for something. He bounced over to Turkeyjaw after the cats started to break up, hanging back while he talked to Furzestar. He glanced to his side when he saw someone come to stand beside him, relaxing a bit when he saw it was just Brownpaw. "I'm the deputy's apprentice now.", he said proudly. While he was excited for being able to say that, he was also excited because Turkeyjaw would make an awesome deputy. |

Greyfoot glances over at Ravennight a little surprised by what she said. He didn't really know her all that well. They had been on a couple of patrols but that was it. "Why thank you, suppose there is always next time right?" He just needed to keep working hard and maybe others would notice him too.

Ravennight Location: Camp With: Greyfoot ( Hawkeyes258) “Always next time.”, Ravennight agreed with a nod. “I think Furzestar wanted someone with a lot of experience this time, since he hasn’t been leader long.”, she said. It had only been a couple seasons since his mother Dawnstar had died, leaving the then Furzeclaw to take over as leader. “But Turkeyjaw is also getting older. I wouldn’t be surprised if he retired.”, she said. Even if they weren’t friendly, she was telling the truth. Greyfoot would make a good deputy. Maybe when Turkeyjaw retired, or got close to it, she could put in a good word with Furzestar for him. |

Turkeyjaw »
Had cats such as Dawnstar and Longwing really spoken so highly of him? Not only has Furzestar mentioned Dawnstar speaking about him earlier, but now the leader was telling Turkeyjaw that Longwing herself had mentioned something about the gray tabby being a good deputy. The tom’s chest swelled. Never had he been prideful or chasing after leadership. He had always done what he thought was right for the Clan. His loyalty and his dedication to LightningClan’s wellbeing had paid off. Here he stood before the Clan as their new deputy, an honor that not many cats received.
For a moment there the gray tabby stood silently in place. His head tilted upward and his eyes closed as he sent a silent, and quick, prayer to StarClan. Thank you, Dawnstar and Longwing, for believing in me. I’ll make you both proud. Turkeyjaw sure hopes that he could at least. The last thing he wanted was to let the former leader and former deputy down, especially not after they had apparently put in very good words about him.
Turkeyjaw stepped back to reality when Furzestar spoke once more. The gray tabby lowered his head and angled his ears toward the leader, smiling gratefully when he registered what the brown tabby had said. ”I greatly appreciate that, Furzestar. I’ve led patrols before and have given orders, but never have I held the responsibility of the entire day’s patrols.” While Turkeyjaw was old enough to be a senior warrior and had been a mentor before Emberpaw, the responsibility of a deputy was new to him. He had never expected such an honor and therefore had never practiced the skills that he would need. He knew how to lead patrols and how to make decisions on what needed to be done, but telling every cat in the Clan what they needed to be doing and when they needed to be doing it was something totally different for him, and he was thankful that Furzestar was here to help.
Daydrift »
It wasn’t unusual for Daydrift to be absent during Clan meetings, especially when she was busy with her herbs like she was now. It wasn’t even unusual for her to not realize that Grasspaw has momentarily left, the young tom interested in hearing what the meeting was about, the meeting that Daydrift had no idea about. Instead she was busying herself with collecting dried pieces of marigold to discard later. A pile of other dried out and old herbs lay off to the side, an indicator of what the medicine cat had been doing this far for today.
She was barely even aware that her apprentice had spoken to her, all the medicine cat hearing was something about a new deputy. While Daydrift did not look away from her pile of herbs as skilled paws continued to sort through them, her large ears angled toward young Grasspaw. ”Hmm?” She mewed dreamily, her tone soft and whispery. ”What about the deputy? Did Furzestar appoint some cat?” Longwing’s death had been some sunrises ago now, the old molly’s departure from this world both shocking yet not surprising. She had been only a few moons younger than the Clan’s previous leader. Not many cats outlived another with nine lives.
Brownpaw »
As Furzestar called to the cats of LightningClan, Brownpaw stayed more to himself in the back of camp. He had been on the lookout for the silver tabby pelt of his mentor, but having not seen her yet Brownpaw was starting to wonder if he had the day off of training. Perhaps he’d look around camp and see if anything needed to be fixed or cleaned. Some of the dens were bound to be needing some fresh moss. And while some apprentices hated being stuck in camp all day and tending to the nests, Brownpaw didn’t mind it. It was an easy enough task, and something he didn’t have to worry about messing up.
Upon hearing that Turkeyjaw was to be the Clan’s new deputy, Brownpaw perked up and immediately began to search for his brother, curious to know how he was reacting to the news of being apprenticed to the deputy. If Brownpaw knew anything about Emberpaw it was that Emberpaw was going to eat this up and brag about it for days. He’d act as if he had been appointed deputy. Perhaps Brownpaw needed to talk some sense into his littermate before he took his boasting a little too far.
It didn’t take long for Brownpaw to find his sibling, and as soon as he did it didn’t take long for the boasting to start. Brownpaw rolled his eyes teasingly. ”Hey, don’t let that get to your head. You probably have to train twice as hard now so you can prove your worth as the deputy’s apprentice.” Brownpaw was mostly teasing, but he did have to wonder if that was true. Did a deputy’s apprentice have more to prove? More to live up to? If that were the case then Brownpaw sure was glad Lostdawn wasn’t deputy. He was already scared enough that he’d disappoint her, he couldn’t even begin to imagine how nerve wracking it would be to train under the Clan’s second in command.

Emberpaw Location: Camp With: Brownpaw ( Feathertalon) Emberpaw narrowed his eyes at his brother, knowing he was messing with him. “You’re just worried I’ll outshine you.”, he teased, nudging his brother with his shoulder. Part of the reason Emberpaw was crowing about being the deputy’s apprentice were his not-so-quiet wishes to lead the Clan in the future. He knew it was a long shot, but maybe if he let his wishes be known now, it could come true. Furzestar Location: Camp With: Turkeyjaw “Of course.”, Furzestar said with a dip of his head. “I believe a few cats have already headed out for the day, but the rest can be assigned to patrols and duties.”, he said. His gaze swept over the camp, settling on where Brownpaw and Emberpaw were chatting. “Then I think it would be good for those two to stretch their legs.”, he said with a soft chuckle. The two had been doing camp chores the few days before, as everything had been a bit off with a lack of deputy. “I believe Lostdawn left to hunt a bit, she should be back soon.”, he said. Lostdawn Location: Camp With: Brownpaw Lostdawn would indeed be back soon, walking in through the entrance to camp with a rabbit hanging from her jaws almost as soon as Furzestar mentioned her. She went and laid it down on the fresh-kill pile, noticing most cats up despite the early hour. She walked over to her apprentice, sitting down beside him. “What did I miss?”, she asked, looking out over the camp, noticing Furzestar speaking to Turkeyjaw. Grasspaw Location: Medicine Cat Den With: Daydrift Grasspaw looked amused at his mentor’s lack of attention, more than used to it at that point. “Turkeyjaw’s the new deputy.”, he said, keeping it short and sweet as he continued to sort through the bundle of comfrey. Sorting the herbs was one of his favorite tasks, as it was quiet and peaceful, a good time for thought and daydreaming. It also meant being in the safety of the medicine cat den, not having to worry about sudden rain or wind out on the moor or in the forest. |
