Rank: Warrior
Gender: Male
Age: 28 Moons
Prompt:
"I hate that you say that." he remarked, crouching down beside her.
"It's true. I can't hunt, or fight, or even gather; I'm worthless!" she retorted, before burying her head in her paws.
He had to admit; his sister, Bramblefang, was once an impeccable warrior. She seemed to be the best at hunting and fighting, practically everything - and even he had to admit he was often jealous. He didn't loathe her for it, no; he remembered tumbling through the woods, without a care in the world.
One day, she became sick.
Not even the medicine cat understood what was wrong with her. It wasn't contagious, but it practically crippled her. She could no longer do the duties she'd always excel at; she'd always be exhausted and hurt. It killed her inside.
Acornheart would periodically come to visit her.
"Do you remember when we'd go out and help with gathering as apprentices?" he'd say, trying to cheer her up, "You'd always find the prettiest things, remember?"
"Too bad I can't do that anymore," she mumbled.
"Don't think of it like that!" he said, "It's a good thing we don't go out anymore. I think I'd injure myself again. I think every time we tried to venture out I got stuck in something!"
She chuckled and rasped, "That's true. You always had terrible luck."
"That reminds me. Isn't it the time everyone gives things to each other? I've never really gotten into that, but I didn't want you to feel left out, so I brought you something."

As he traveled through the outer ring of the woods, thankful that there hadn't been that much snow, he stopped as he noticed something in particular.
A patch of flowers he remembered. He and his sister would sometimes sneak out and play around here, pretending various scenarios; perhaps an invasion, or mixing up "poultices" together.
He spotted a few lone flowers, but most of all, he spotted the most beautiful. It was a brilliant amber with yellow coursing through it like the embers of a fire; it reminded him of Bramblefang. Her personality - a firecracker, not afraid to do things other wouldn't (perhaps that was why she never had a mate; she never cared), and her eyes, like her eyes in flower form.
This would be perfect for her, he thought, and swiftly picked it up and carried on.

"It's so pretty, Acornheart! I've only ever seen this kind once... didn't we play around that patch when we were young?" she whispered, drawing the flower closer.
"Yeah, it made me think of you. I hope you like it; it reminded me of you, "fiery" and all--"
She snorted. "Hah - I love it, what are you kidding? I love flowers. If only I could get more myself, my whole nest would be decorated with the things by now."
"Maybe we will, one day."

Cat Name: softfeather

Softfeather looked around anxiously. He didn’t want to be caught going into enemy clan territory, but he needed to get something. Softfeather scampered across the grassland. Though it was leafbare snow never fell but the wind did chill his clanmates to the bone. He sniffed the air. Nothing. Just how he liked it. Softfeather was the best in the clan at sneaking as his paws were fluffy and he landed on the earth light as a feather. Softfeather finally sees what he was after all along, a pebble! This pebble he spotted out of hundreds of others. This pebble was smooth, Black, and perfectly rounded. Quickly he scooped it into his mouth. The feeling of it on his teeth made him cringe but he hurried along back to oakclan camp. Upon his return a silver she cat came to greet him. Fishclaw. A purr began to rise in his throat as the she cat brushed his fur with hers. ”where is coalkit?” he meowed. where do you expect a KIT to be?” she joked ”he’s in the nursery with cinderkit and flowerfall.” fishclaw padded away shaking her head. Softfeather watched her go, one day she would know how he felt about her but right now coalkit needed him. Softfeather entered the den. It smelled of milk and sickness. Softfeather nudged the little black jelly bean. hey there buddy, how are you feeling?” the kit looked up meekly ”I’m feeling a bit better, I still feel shaky though”. the kits body shook as he sneezed. ”well I brought you something to make you feel better!” Softfeather laid the pebble in front of the kits paws. ”this pebble is special. It’s dark as night to help you sleep, smooth as the softest nest, and round like the moon which brings light even in darkness.” Softfeather explained. ”wow! This is great! Thank you Softfeather” the kit replied with a yawn. Coalkit curled his tiny body around the stone and fell asleep. Flowerfall looked up to Softfeather ”does that pebble really have the power to heal him?” she asked with hopeful eyes. Softfeather sighed ”no, but as long as he believes it he has hope”. he walked out of the den and into the clearing over to fishclaw. Well now is as good a time as any to confess his feelings. Softfeather chuckled to himself.

Cat Name: SunSmoke
Clan: ThistleClan
Rank: warden
Gender: shecat
Age: 30 moons
Prompt:
"I'm gonna do it Silver!"
SunSmoke's determined meow sounded outside the healers' den, causing the blue point to poke their slender head out to greet the she-cat.
Already the cleric knew what was up, and they let a toothy smile spread across their face.
"You finally got the nerves to go away?" They meowed, their voice amused.
"Yup! I'm going to do it!"
SunSmoke had had a crush on another she-cat from another clan. She first spotted her at a gathering, her loud meow echoing throughout the clearing. From then and afterwards the other's bright pelt always caught the warden's eye.
SageStrike, a warrior in SilentClan, was the cat that was always on SunSmoke's mind.
"How are you going to do it?" SilverMint's question snapped the fluffy she-cat from her thoughts.
"Huh, I'm not quite sure. I think I'll figure that out on the way there. It's a few days journey after all." She thought aloud.
She had spoken to the other she-cat once or twice before, and it only caused the she-cat's feelings to grow. She was so kind to her it was so strange.
She hoped she wouldn't get turned down, she didn't have to worry about it being against the rules, as their deputy HeatherPool was mated to AdderStar himself.
"A rose." She decided, causing SilverMint to turn and regard their comrade.
"A rose would be nice, my old stand-ups gave them to each other on valentines day, though that's not for a few moons." The healer mused.
Though valentines day was a strange concept to the warden, she nodded stoically to herself and stood.
---
She had made it to the border of SilentClan, and she waited patiently for a patrol, a red rose in her jaws. The thorns pricked her mouth, but she decided the pain would be worth it. She just hoped she wouldn't get turned down.
She heard voices not far away, and the scents of cats wafted up her nostrils as she anticipated the greeting.
She watched as three cats walked out of the undergrowth, eyeing her suspiciously. SunSmoke recognized BrackenHaze, as well as a slim flame point she couldn't remember the name of.
Then there she was, her coat gleaming in the afternoon sun, and SunSmoke prayed the blush that covered her face wasn't visible.
"What is your purpose to be on SilentClan territory?" SageStrike asked, though her eyes flickered with recognition to the smoke.
Instead of saying anything, SunSmoke stood and stepped forward, keeping in mind the borderline. She placed the rose at SageStrike's paws and stepped away, dipping her head as she sat back down. "For you." She meowed simply.
The tabby clearly didn't know how to respond, her mouth hanging agape for several moments, and a faint blush could be seen where her fur was white. She closed her jaws, letting a small smile play across her muzzle--unable to respond.
“Oh my gosh thank you!” She finally said, leaping forward to grab the rose, wearing a heavy blush.
