Mockingbird Mockingbird
He puts my soul at rest
with a thousand songs
and a thousand calls
He who has seen a thousand creatures
and remember their names
Their voices
Mockingbird Mockingbird on the branch
over my den
He sings to me, he sings to me
And he calls me by my name


Mockingbird with song sharp and clear
Mockingbird with ears quick and cunning
Mockingbird with a thousand voices
Mockingbird with a thousand friends
Mockingbird my wily friend
Teach me your songs
Tell me your stories
And sing me a lullaby my cunning friend

A calm breeze ruffled Finchflight’s fur as she watched from the edge of BoulderClan’s territory, looking out into the marshes of RippleClan. The plant life swayed with the wind, and she quickly found herself rocking her body with it. It was peaceful; exactly what she needed after a long day of hunting. The sun was setting, casting an orange glow round her. Her gaze drifted upwards to the sparse clouds, though she quickly pulled her head down as a large dark shadow flew overhead. Her eyes clenched shut in terror, but the sound of the bird splashing in the water shocked them open.

The bird was large, larger than any she’d seen in BoulderClan territory. Its bill was long and looked powerful, but it seemed too strange to be real. Finchflight carefully stood up and took a few steps towards it. The closer she got, the more scared she became. It quickly turned its head, looking at her with piercing, beady eyes. She stopped and stared back. She noticed its white feathers shimmering in the light, droplets of water coating the bird. Had it been to a far away place where it could spend time in water, or did it simply live in the marshes? The bird continued staring, not backing down, though the she-cat was very tempted to run.

“Y-you should leave. I could tear you to pieces if I wanted to!” She shouted from the bank of the marsh. The bird was unfazed. She grunted in annoyance. “I mean it! I would feed my entire clan for moons!”

“Finchflight, what are you doing?” Stonecloud’s voice came from behind her, making her jump.

“I was just telling this weird bird to leave, or I’d bring it back to the clan.” Her fur was spiked up from the shock, and she knew that Stonecloud’s chuckles were because of it.

“It’s just a pelican. It won’t hurt you as long as you don’t get any closer. I don’t trust them.”

“A…pelican?” Her brows furrowed. She hadn’t heard of these birds before.

“Yeah. Now c’mon, Lionstar wants to have a meeting.” Stonecloud turned away and started walking back towards camp. This ‘pelican’ still watched on with its beady eyes and shimmering white feathers. Finchflight felt herself smile as she turned away to follow. How could this bird not fear a cat? She rather liked the strange bird.

The fearless pelican.

I found this form stood out a bit compared to the others, mostly with the interesting choice of wording and birds. Congrats!

For a few moons of the year, puffins live off the coast of OceanClan territory on small, rocky outcrops and islands. These birds never stray near OceanClan cats, almost all do not even realise they are there. Except Dawnmask. With a sleeker coat than most, she swims from rock to rock, swiftly dancing across the surface of the ocean with her long legs. The puffins were never frightened of her, she never attacked them or ever strayed too close to them. Watching them potter around was all she was after.

She would slip out to visit them just after the moonhigh patrol had left and the rest of the camp was asleep. Her younger life was spent moving noiselessly, she was already skilled at creeping in pure silence long before joining OceanClan. She first came across the puffin group a few moons after coming to the clan, her name still Dawnpaw. Her first journey to the mini puffin island resulted in her becoming soaked with water and almost dying, but she looks back on the memory fondly. She found the island by chance, her true mission being to find a MoonShell. Instead, she found a colony of puffins.

Never quite sure why she returned year after year, Dawnmask grew attached to the strange looking birds. They were unlike anything she had ever seen before, none of the forest birds looked even remotely similar to them and it had taken her a while to even figure out that they were in fact birds. She enjoys watching them totter around, like newborn kits but with wings. So far she has never been caught sneaking out in the darkness, although she suspects her brother Smokefang has realised that she doesn’t spend all her nights in camp.

Returning home the next morning, before the dawn patrol, fills her with a type of happiness she has not found in any other place. It is not the adrenaline of a hunt, nor is it the serenity of speaking with respected clanmates, nor the joy in training apprentices. She cannot place a name to this emotion, it is indescribable.

And to everyone else that participated, don't give up hope, best of luck in other competitions and much love from Rei <3
