GladeClan (1x1 with NightWolf950)

[NightWolf950]

Wolfsong hissed at Ospreykit before speaking. "You kits are in big trouble. Your lucky we are alive. Lucky your alive." she meowed. Due to holding Swiftkit, her words came out a bit muffled. The black cat was a bit annoyed with ehr kits, however she was greatful they where alive.

[Cradily]

Ospreykit was silent for the rest of the way home.

Badgerstorm returned to the nursery to find Dustpaw telling the other two kits a story, but Petalkit sprang to her paws when she saw her parents enter and raced to meet them. "Mom! Dad! You found them!" she exclaimed cheerfully when she saw Ospreykit and Swiftkit hanging from their mouths. But then she noticed her parents' wounds and her eyes widened. "What happened?"

[NightWolf950]

Wolfsong set Swiftkit down, gently pushing her father in to the nursery. "You and Ospreypaw are in big trouble. We might just have your apprentice ceremonies put on hold for a bit." she growled, slightly. Wolfsong's back leg was aching, she could feel that it was broken. The other wounds didn't bother her so much. The black queen lied down in her nest, exhausted. "Dustpaw, do you mind taking a look at my leg? The fox stepped on it and I heard a snap." she meowed quietly.

Swiftkit hissed a bit as she was pushed in to the nursery then grew even more angry when her mother threatened to have their apprentice ceremonies put on hold.

Ravenkit's eyes grew wide, upon seeing his parents in such bad shape. However they where able to stay alive and even bring back his brother and sister.

[Cradily]

Dustpaw was curious about what had happened too, and pricked his ears up a bit at the mention of a fox, but didn't bother asking for details. An explanation could wait till later. "Of course." In an instant, he was at Wolfsong's side and gently ran his paw across her leg. "Where does it hurt?"

Meanwhile, Petalkit's eyes had enlarged even more. "Fox? What fox? You fought a fox? What did it look like?"

"Sure did," Ospreykit boasted, as if he had been the one to fight the fox. "It was big and orange and--" But a stern look from Badgerstorm silenced him. "Oh, so you were the one who fought it now, were you?" Badgerstorm asked his son, and Ospreykit just shook his head.

[NightWolf950]

Wolfsong was fine until young Dustpaw gently ran his paw across the middle part of her back leg. "Y-yeah right there is where it really hurts." she meowed to the young apprentice.

Swiftkit let out a small hiss at Petalkkit, only to be hissed back at by Ravenkit. Swiftkit rolled her eyes and walked away, curling up on the far side of the nursery.

Ravenkit watched as Swiftkit walked away then watched as she curled up. He then sat down next to Petalkit. "It'll be aright." he meowed.

[Cradily]

Ospreykit hissed right back at Ravenkit before going to join Swiftkit in the corner of the nursery.

Petalkit just glared after Swiftkit and Ospreykit, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes as well. "Why are they so mean?" she asked Ravenkit. "We never did anything to them." Why couldn't they all just get along?

Dustpaw gently felt the middle part of the queen's leg. After a moment or two, he meowed, "I'll be right back." and exited the nursery.

[NightWolf950]

Wolfsong watched Dustpaw leave before looking over at her kits. She sighed a bit, a bit disappointed they couldn't get along for once. "I hope whoever becomes their mentors can handle their feisty personalities." she said to Badgerstrom.

Ravenkit shrugged a bit, letting out a small sigh. "I don't know Petalkit... I just want us to be a happy family." he mumbled.

Cherryblossom saw Dustpaw dash in to the medicine cat's den, curiously the white she-cat padded over to her apprentice. "What's wrong Dustpaw?" she asked.

(When should we skip a few moons?)

[Cradily]

Badgerstorm just grunted. It was clear he was still angry at the kits for leaving camp and getting into trouble, resulting in him and Wolfsong getting hurt, not to mention the fact that they weren't even sorry. If it was up to him, he would delay their apprentice ceremonies by at least a moon.

"Me too." Petalkit looked sad for a minute, but she soon perked up. "At least we have each other, and Mom and Dad."

"Wolfsong and Badgerstorm got into a fight with a fox," Dustpaw explained to his mentor. "Wolfsong's got a broken leg. Could you check on Badgerstorm while I take care of Wolfsong?" he asked as he went through the assorted herbs they had stored in the back.

(Whenever you want. Would you like to now, or do you want to finish the interactions we have going on and then skip?)

[NightWolf950]

(It would just be the two meds. checking on our darling parents. So maybe would could skip. Maybe to Dustpaw and Maplepaw's cermonies. Along with the kits becoming apprentices. So maybe 2 or 3 moon skip.)

[Cradily]

(Sounds good to me. Do you think Ospreykit's and Swiftkit's apprentice ceremonies should be delayed or no? Also, if I remember correctly, med cat apprentices receive their full names from their mentors at the Moonpool/stone/whatever. So I think Cherryblossom would have to give Dustpaw his full name the next time they go to the Moonflower.)

Maplepaw sleepily opened her eyes, only to close them shut again when the sun shone in them. With her leg mostly healed and only a slight limp left, she had moved back to the apprentices' den about a moon ago. Even though she enjoyed the company of her brother and Cherryblossom, she had missed her old nest and was happy to be back. As she was beginning to drift back to sleep, she suddenly remembered: Today was the day she would become a warrior! Immediately, her eyes opened and she sprung to her paws and began to groom herself. She had to look her best for the big day.

"Ravenkit! Ravenkit!" Petalkit practically jumped on her sleeping brother. "Today's the day! Get up!"
