Palepaw shook his head, sides heaving from running all over the place. It was evident speed was not his forte. ''No...but maybe just one?'' Addercloud flicked an ear. ''Very well...what is it dear?'' ''Are you single?'' Palepaw inquired, winking, a smirk curling his lips. ''W-what...no!'' Addercloud exclaimed meekly, looking startled. ''Just joking!'' Palepaw sniggered. ''I'm sorry m'lady.'' Addercloud merely nodded uncomfortably.

She could hear him, but in his horrible attempt of sneakiness that was a disgrace to the word stealth, he was taking an awfully long time. She yawned loudly, calling out into the woods, "Come out, come out, wherever you are.." Eventually they stepped out the brush, their pelt covered head to toe in mud, and their eyes glowing curiously. "The verdict?" Foxpoppy let out a raspy purr, her sharp claws flexing in the dirt. "Ah, yes." "Thicketclan is not too large, yet not too small. Established, yet not quite firm. Plus, I've been recognized as 'sent by Starclan,' so who would suspect me? Silly kittens.. Plus, their leader is very soft. Could very easily be played with, and disposed of once we're over. Come as soon as you can, and we can start."

He rolled on the floor, groaning. He opened one eyes to see a badger looking at him. The warrior snarled weakly, noticing the animal had attacked him. His breathing turned shallow until he passed out... Or was he dead? His heart slowed down, feeling a claw dig into his neck. Slowly, his breathing stopped and the animal trotted away.

tauriel. wrote:"Another new member!" Juniperfoot exclaimed, delighted. "And a tribe cat! I wonder what a tribe cat is?" She wondered aloud to Sedgetail and Harespring. "No idea but it sounds interesting!" Sedgetail replied, glancing curiously at the tabby as Woolyfur took him on a quick tour of the camp. Harespring followed her gaze to the tom, thinking All this would be even better if Sedgetail fell for him and stopped talking to Burrwhisker. He still didn't approve of Sedgetail's friendship with the tom and their fighting about it wasn't getting any better. In fact, Sedgetail was now ignoring him. "Sedgetail-" He began, but the silver tabby cut him off saying, "I need to go. Rowanfur, Chiveclaw, and I are training the apprentices. Bye Juniperfoot!" Without a word to Harespring, Sedgetail darted off towards the apprentice den. Juniperfoot looked sympathetically at Harespring. "I don't know what your fighting about but let her cool off for a while. After the hunting patrol, you should talk to her." She advised. Her advice made him feel a million times better. Talking to Juniperfoot always had that effect on him. "Thanks Juniperfoot. I will." Harespring replied, nudging her gratefully. Juniperfoot had a way of calming him down even when Sedgetail was being infuriating. It was one of the first things that had drawn him to her. "Come on, we better get going." She purred, leading him to the rest of their hunting patrol.

But still, 'Bumble' had a strong divine feeling, a feeling indicating that someone was looking over and protecting him every single day. And then, waiting for the perfect moment, that same feeling had lead him here. A place where he now called home. The medicine cat had to admit, he was intimidated by other medicine cats. Most of them had been mentored by a professional former medicine cat. But him? He taught himself on his own. The cat felt flustered whenever his leader described him as 'skillful'. But it was true he had special home remedies and tricks up his sleeves that many other cats do not know about. But still, how would they think about him, a former kittypet?

shimmerstream wrote:Stormshadow padded towards the west in search of prey. Her belly grumbled at her and she hissed softly at it. Leafbare had been hard on them all, Falconswoop had given her the last of their stored prey after he had found her cold and starving in a hollow log during the blizzard. They had spent several days together before Soaringstar had returned with Poppythorn, since then he'd barely spoken to her. Stormshadow admired and respected the deputy, he'd saved her life and given her a home. With this new home, her previous name and life no longer mattered, and she was just fine with that. She had named herself in regard to the blizzard she had been saved from. She had always been uncomfortable around other cats, but she felt like the others were ignoring her. Stormshadow crouched in the undergrowth, watching a shrew. She hoped that if she could provide for her new clan, maybe then Falconswoop would actually seem to approve of her.

The pain left by the deaths of Cricketleap and Speckledpaw was still raw, but the cats were starting to regain their hope. The only exception was Robinstar, who had been cowering in the back of her den since her visit to the moonpool. Brambletooth padded up to the den, cautiously poking his head inside. "H-hi Robinstar. I was just wondering if you wanted anything," he stammered, trying to swallow the unsettling feeling he got when he saw the leader's oddly detached look. "No. Get out. Leave me alone," Robinstar ordered. Brambletooth nodded briskly, backing away. "Send Tanglestep to me," the patched she-cat added after a moment. The ginger deputy nodded again. "Of course," he mewed before rushing to the warrior den. "Tanglestep, Robinstar wishes for you to meet her in her den." Tanglestep stood up swiftly, and Brambletooth was unable to keep the smug grin off his face. Certainly this meant that Robinstar suspected the tabby warrior. His expression stoic, Tanglestep padded to Robinstar's den. As soon as he arrived, the leader urged him to sit. Without hesitation, she dove into a recall of the entire dream she had at the moonpool. When she finished, the air was silent and heavy. "Did you recognize the voices? In the screams?" Tanglestep finally asked. Robinstar shook her head faintly. "I don't know. I wasn't..." Her voice trailed off. After a moment's silence, the she-cat jerked her head up suddenly, making eye contact for the first time in what seemed like moons. "Nobody understands me. Nobody hears me. They don't listen!" she cried, surprising Tanglestep. "They all think I'm crazy. I'm not. I know what I saw at the moonpool. The Clan is in danger, and nobody believes me!" The brown tabby nodded. "I believe you," he meowed smoothly. "I don't know exactly what's going on—nobody really does—but I'm willing to help in any way possible," Tanglestep lied. "Thank you. You may go," Robinstar murmured. The warrior dipped his head respectfully before padding out. Brambletooth sauntered up to him, a smirk playing at his lips. "So, how did it go?" he mewed, certain that Tanglestep was in deep trouble. Contrarily, the younger tom only smiled. "Don't get your hopes up," he purred before padding swiftly into the forest. Brambletooth only watched, bewildered, as his confidence began slipping away.

Birdsong turned her good ear towards the ginger queen so she could hear her. "Yeah, I'm fine..." BIrdsong mewed. "You look like you hate Bloodyclaws." Sunnyflower mewed. "He's your mate." Birdsong shrugged. "I don't mind him but I don't really like him either. He's also not my mate, we're just having kits." Sunnyflower looked at Birdsong, confused but deciding not to say anything else. "I don't trust him that much, something seems off with him..." The young spotted brown queen mewed as she watched Bloodyclaws talking quietly with Mossycreek before the pair left camp together.
