☪Bluewhisker ♂||Warrior||47 moons||→Moosestar, Mistlespots, Timberfoot, Tigerlily

He had a hard time focusing at the blood pounded in his ears, anxiety rising in his chest. While he managed to keep himself calm hearing the final call, he knew putting Wildclan in their place was overdue with how the last battle went. "I understand, stay safe everyone." He mews, trying to come up with an apology for Rabbitpaw since they wouldn't be able to train today. As the other warriors leave Tigerlily and Moosestar alone, he finds his ears pricked towards Mistlespots muttering as they part ways, hoping not all cats were as eager to taste blood today as their leader was. Sighing, he lifts his head to watch for the patrols, wondering who would be sent to outnumber whatever sad patrol Wildclan sent to check for them today. More importantly than that, he scanned camp quietly making notes of cats that might be remaining in camp. The apprentices would still need to blow off energy somehow if they couldn't leave camp.

✨Vervainclaw ♀||Warrior||26 moons||→Thistleflight

Her head tilts a little in confusion, glancing over to notice the three warriors leaving the leaders den. In all honesty, she'd been so in her own head that she hadn't noticed some gathering had been taking place. "Maybe that's for the best, they probably talk about really serious stuff... I couldn't handle the weight of the clan on my shoulders, not like them." She easily admired others, but experienced warriors with confidence and leadership always stood over certain cats. Thistleflight, from what she could gather, still had some growing to do too, but she didn't dare tell him that. "As for me, I'm just having my usual busy bee brain. More thoughts than stars in the sky it feels like; sometimes anyway. Cats like me don't belong in those meetings, but you will someday." She tries to reassure him.

> The white and black patched tom shook his head "No they don't like the fire inside their dens, inside their dens are many things that only feed the fire and soon the small fire will burn their whole den to the ground...so they try to control the fire so it doesn't destroy anything..." he meowed to them. He looked at Softheart "No not any longer, at first I did, I didn't know how to live in the wild, what to do, how to get food, back then I felt...like I could not do anything but wait for the dead to come...I was totally lost and scared...yes back then I did miss my owners a lot, but in the end, it was them, who abandoned me...after getting a much younger cat to their family..." he meowed his eyes looking over to his paws.

> He looked at the Emberheart for a moment as the tom did jump almost out of his fur when he spoke up earlier "Well yes, they will, but we could try later in better luck and when this rain stops those little animals will start their daily duties outside of their dens." he meowed to him. He then took his catches and waited for his apprentice to do the same, he then turned to the path which brought him to the camp. The weather was bad, and he seriously hoped that it could calm down soon, this was not fun at all.

Pumacloud - 22m - warrior - male - love interest: open - apprentice: open - tags: Tinyfang, Flypaw, Gorsewhisper
>He gave the apprentice a little angry glare after his harsh words, but he didn't say anything about it. He shook his head in annoyance as he took his way back to the camp, he himself already knew that this patrol was a waste of time, but they needed to do those. They could never be too trustful toward those who could wander to their lands and go threat their camp or everyone inside there, better to be alert than sorry later. Maybe someday the noisy angsty boy will learn why those boring patrols are so important to them to do.

Lotusflower - 14m - warrior - female - love interest: open - apprentice: n/a - tags: open
> She was not invited to the morning patrols and just sat there watching the camp at the dry spot near the warrior's den. The rain didn't really please her to do anything at all, although she was already getting a little bored.

Seapaw - 7m - apprentice - female - love interest: Flypaw & Oilpaw - mentor: Mudface - tags: open
> She walked over to the entrance and sat down peeking outside of the de, either Flypaw and Oilpaw were out to the patrols, which didn't bother her that much at all, she was actually a little bit happy that the angsty boy Flypaw got his pelt wet there. She found out that she had a little crush on the dark tom, but she didn't know why, the tom annoyed her a lot and there was not a single day when she didn't want to punch him in the head. She sighed her ears flicking over to the Plumpaw and Oakpaw who were talking there, but so far she only focused to look at the rain.

[Cradily]

🐯Tigerlily - Deputy - Female - 40 moons - Crush: Moosestar - Tags: Moosestar

Tigerlily dipped her head in acknowledgment of Moosestar's decision, and was about to get up and walk away with the rest of the senior warriors when the leader's tail brushed against her flank. She felt her ears grow hot at a mere touch from the gray-and-white tom, but ignored the feeling as best she could and turned back around to make eye contact. "Yes, Moosestar?"

🪵Timberfoot - Warrior - Male - 40 moons - Tags: Mistlespots, Bluewhisker

Timberfoot bowed respectfully before Moosestar before exiting the den alongside Mistlespots and Bluewhisker. His fur had almost started to dry off, but the second he was under the sky again the rain pelted him just as hard as before. Moosestar must have bees in his brain if he thinks fighting today is a good idea, he thought, but he knew he couldn't say so out loud. Thankfully, Mistlespots seemed to be on the same page as him, as she echoed his thoughts a moment later. "No, you're right," he assured her with a sigh. "She might be the one cat who could actually change Moosestar's mind, but she's too eager to get revenge on WildClan." And too in love with Moosestar to argue with him, he added to himself. At least he and Mistlespots were in agreement, and Bluewhisker didn't seem too ecstatic about the idea of battling either. "Bluewhisker," he mewed, turning to the smokey-gray tom, "would you mind telling Mothtumble to prepare herbs for any injured cats? I'm going to try to eat something before we leave." Timberfoot looked, sounded, and felt exhausted already, and the battle hadn't even begun yet. He had no appetite, but he knew he had to try and get some energy in him, if only to protect his clanmates when the time came.

🌊Riverripple - Warrior - Male - 26 moons - Crush: Creamflower - Tags: Creamflower, Cherrycloud, Ashkit

Thunder rolled overhead, rousing Riverripple from his slumber. It had been raining since last night, so he wasn't surprised to hear that it still was, although it had absolutely grown into a pretty serious storm. Deciding that he was in no rush, he spent a few minutes grooming his long sleek fur, knowing full well that it wouldn't matter once he stepped out into the downpour, before finally getting up and slipping out of the den. He noticed Rabbitpaw duck into the nursery, most likely bringing breakfast to the queens. But surely they wouldn't turn down more prey, right? He grabbed a few minnows from the fresh-kill pile and followed the apprentice into the nursery. "Morning, she-cats," he purred politely. "And Ashkit," he added to Cherrycloud's son. He nudged the minnows closer to them. "I see that Rabbitpaw has already brought you something to eat, but I figured I'd bring you a few minnows in case that's not enough to split between the three of you."

💦Creekshine - Warrior - Female - 13 moons - Tags: Emberheart, Goldmask, Dullgaze, Oilpaw

Creekshine flattened her ears, half from the rain, half trying to block out the chitchat from the rest of the patrol. No one else seemed to particularly notice or care that they were all soaked and were talking away like normal, everyone except for Dullgaze, who remained silent. At least she gets it, Creekshine thought, although part of her felt bad for the older she-cat. She slowed her pace a little until she was walking side by side with Dullgaze, not saying anything, but simply keeping the light gray tabby company.

🪰Flypaw - Apprentice - Male - 8 moons - Mentor: Tinyfang - Tags: Lotusflower

Flypaw had bounded so fast and far ahead of his patrolmates that he made it back to camp within just a few minutes. He cursed as he crossed through the stream that protected RiverClan's camp from outsiders, as the waters had risen considerably, and shook out his pelt when he made it to the other side, scattering droplets everywhere and especially on Lotusflower, who was not far from him.

[Animals65]

Creamflower hears a voice and looks up to see it was Riverripple, one of the warriors. "Hello Riverripple!" she greeted warmly. "Thank you for bringing the minnows! It is greatly appreciated!"

[C a s]

⌠✯⌡→ Moosestar → 43 mns | ♂ | Apprentice: | Crush: Featherleap | Tags: Tigerlily

The tom patted the space beside him with a large paw, motioning for the deputy to sit and join him. "Thank you for your support," he began, with a dip of his head. "Adjusting to leadership has been...difficult, but having you here to help has made it much easier. I'm glad I chose you as deputy, Tigerlily." For a moment, the tom was silent, as if carefully mulling over the words he'd use next.
"Tigerlily - I'm sorry, but I need you to stay here. I knew you'd want to be on the patrol...but if anything were to happen to me, the Clan needs a leader. In fact, while I'm gone to battle the Clan will need somebody to keep them calm. What if something were to happen in camp? I need you to take charge." Again, the tom let his fluffy tail rest on her flank. "I'm sorry - I knew you'd want to take part in this battle more than any cat in TranquilClan, but for the Clan's sake, I can't let you."
From the entrance to his den, Moosestar caught sight of Flypaw's black pelt charging into camp and then giving himself a vigorous shake. "Ah, the border patrol must be back."

⌠❣⌡→ Tinyfang → 34 mns | ♀ | Apprentice: Flypaw | Crush: | Tags: Pumacloud, Gorsewhisper; Bluewhisker

Tinyfang maintained silence, her head down, as she padded several tail-lengths behind her apprentice. She was ashamed in her inability to make him behave; in fact, she was ashamed to be Flypaw's mentor in general. As the patrol arrived back to camp, she held her tail up for the others to stop. The mood in camp seemed sour. Right away the she-cat noticed that Bluewhisker seemed to be keeping an eye on the entrance, and for a moment, her bad day was forgotten. She headed straight towards the tom. "Bluewhisker - what's going on? I feel like we weren't gone long enough to miss anything."

⌠∞⌡→ Oakpaw → 10 mns | ♂ | Mentor: Timberfoot | Crush: | Tags: Plumpaw

Having been lost in thought, paws on the Oakpaw's tail made the tom jump. "Hey- oh, Plumpaw." Oakpaw mewed as he realized who was there. The tabby tom nodded along to the other apprentice's words. "You're right; I hope Timberfoot doesn't drag me all the way to the moor today...and I hope Thistleflight takes it easy on you, too." Oakpaw flicked his tail towards the leader's den. "Moosestar has had the senior warriors in there all morning. I wonder what they could be talking about...and I hope it doesn't take too much longer. I'm getting bored." To Oakpaw, even a wet pelt was worth having something to do.

⌠❆⌡→ Icestep → 81 mns | ♀ | Apprentice: | Mate: Graywind, Owlfoot | Tags: Frostegret, Softheart

The black-and-white cat's eyes softened as Frostegret spoke. She let her tail rest on the tom's back. "Don't worry, Frostegret - you're our Clanmate now. None of us would ever abandon you. That must have been scary, though - living in a den that burns so easily, with no way to escape! Here in the forest you can run from danger like that." Finally, Icestep stood and stretched. "Say, why don't I see if I can't find us all something to eat? I'd bet the hunting patrol will be returning soon. I hope they were able to find something in this weather."

⌠☁⌡→ Cherrycloud → 38 mns | ♀ | Apprentice: | Crush: Timberfoot | Tags: Ashkit, Creamflower, Rabbitpaw, Riverripple

"I'm sure," Cherrycloud assured the other queen. As Ashkit pranced around Rabbitpaw's feet, the queen let her eyes wander to the entrance to the den, and she let her head rest on her paws. I hope Ashclaw has found shelter somewhere from this weather...if he's even anywhere around here. For all I know, he could have traveled far from TranquilClan's territory... A sigh escaped the she-cat. She missed her brother dearly and more than anything she wished he could see the cat his son was becoming.
Cherrycloud was drawn out of thought as Riverripple entered. "Oh - Riverripple, good morning! Thank you very much, those minnows will be the perfect size for Ashkit. I hope it wasn't too much trouble, bringing them to us in the rain."

⌠☄⌡→ Ashkit → 6 mns | ♂ | Mentor: | Crush: | Tags: Creamflower, Rabbitpaw, Cherrycloud, Riverripple

The tiny cat was almost vibrating with how hard his purr rumbled in his chest. Ashkit dropped into a crouch, his rump wiggling ungracefully, before he pounced at Rabbitpaw's paw. The small tom latched onto her paw, rolling onto his side, and kicking it with his back feet. He growled verociously at the apprentice before reaching up to bat at her nose. As Riverripple walked in, the tiny kit scrambled to his paws. "Minnows!" He cheered. Perhaps it was all the time around Creamflower, but the young tom had quite the taste for fish, unlike Cherrycloud's preferance for land prey.
"Thank you Riverripple!" Ashkit purred, before picking up two of the minnows. The gray kit dropped them at Rabbitpaw's feet, nudging one of them in her direction. "For you!"

"Too true," he laughed, shaking his head. Mudface's treatment of him was no secret to anyone in the clan. It was nice to think that she was just cranky and not biased towards him. He wondered, idly, if she'd ever respect him as medicine cat some day. She'd have a fun time trying to heal herself if not! "Alright, I'll see who's up to help," Beetlepaw gave a nod, watching Mothtumble look over the herbs. Oh, cobwebs, of course! "If there are any, I'll be sure to find them!" he responded, a cheerful pep in his step. The rain really was no bother to Beetlepaw. After living most of his life in Desertclan, he was more than happy for rain. He paused at Mothtumble's next words, letting them settle between his ears. "Thank you, Mothtumble, that means a lot. Sometimes I wonder why Starclan didn't let me die with the rest of my clan. But the longer I'm here, the more obvious it is to me that I was meant for this," he smiled. He pressed his flank up against her for a moment, before leaning off. "Alright, off I go. Try not to have too much excitement without me!"

Beetlepaw wandered out of the dry sanctuary that was the medicine cat den, looking over the camp. Who could he borrow for an herb gathering mission? Maybe someone in the warrior's den would be up to the journey. He made his way over, darting inside to save his coat from more rain. "Good morning, Thistleflight, Vervainclaw, Strikinggaze," he greeted. "Would any of you be willing to join me herb hunting? I know the rain's awful and all, so don't feel like you have to put yourself out."

🪔Oilpaw🪔

Oilpaw followed his mentor's example, picking up the mouse he'd caught and carrying it with his head held high. He'd done his part, he'd helped feed the clan! Even if it wasn't much, it was something. He followed Goldmask obediently, making his way back to camp. When they'd arrived, he was first to put his fresh kill on the pile. The energy in the camp was... different than they'd left it. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he was sure it wasn't good. Observe, Oilpaw, he told himself. The senior warriors all looked like they were worried about something. He wanted to ask questions, but knew it wasn't his place. Instead, he decided to busy himself by bringing fresh-kill to the elders.

He picked up a squirrel from the pile and made his way to the elder's den. "Good morning!" he greeted, voice muffled around the squirrel. He dropped it just inside the den. "If this isn't enough, just let me know and I'll grab more!" The young cat beamed.

"If the rain were an adder, it would've got you!" She laughed, shaking her head. Apprentices could be so funny. "Go easy on your old man, he just wants what's best for you," Mudface leaned in, licking a droplet of water off of the top of Sorrelpaw's head affectionately. "Try not to get too soaked, we don't need any sick cats," she advised, before disappearing into the apprentice den. "Good morning, Seapaw. Get enough rest?" she greeted, sitting down beside her apprentice. "I was thinking we could go train in a little bit, once you've had some fresh-kill. The rain's not going to let up any time soon, but it would be good to learn how to fight when everything's slippery. It takes keen skill," she hummed, though the thought of sitting inside this den all day sounded awfully luxurious right now. She began to groom herself, getting all of the water off of her coat.

Gorsewhisper was more than relieved to get back to camp. Flypaw lead the way and for once she was glad to follow the little spitfire. He was such a weird kit, she was quietly thankful her own hadn't turned out quite like him. Speaking of, it looked like the hunting patrol had returned too. The little motherly part of her left wanted to grab Creekshine by the scruff and carry her out of the rain so she didn't catch a cold. She had to remind herself, though, Creekshine wasn't a kit anymore. She did her best not to stare at her child, not sure what to even say to her. She should at least try to say something, right?

She approached, clearly awkward in her stance. God, why was talking to her own child so hard? She knew why, because she saw Riverripple in her. "Morning, Creekshine. Catch anything in all this rain?" she asked.

"That does sound awfully dangerous. I'm glad you're with us, Frostegret," she smiled, leaning in to press her nose against his flank. Just as soon as Icestep had finished talking, Oilpaw had walked in with fresh-kill, beating her to the punch. "Looks like a little apprentice beat you to it!" she teased. "What do I smell? Mouse? No.. squirrel?" she sniffed the air gingerly. "Thank you, Oilpaw. I'm sure it wasn't easy to catch anything in this weather," she moved a little closer to the prey. She usually let the other two eat first, and today was no exception.

38 Moons ➥ He/Him ➥ Widow ➥ @ Hunting Party

Emberheart sighed, feathers quivering in his mouth. He kept his ears flat as rain patted them down. He just wanted to get back home, maybe go see his daughter... Maybe he could see to her training a little, assist Roseleaf a bit? What could he say, he was very enthusiastic to know if his daughter was doing well.

6 Moons ➥ She/Her ➥ Uninterested ➥ @ Mudface

The apprentice purred a little as the molly licked the droplet off her head, although still embarrassed by her fumble. Sorrelpaw nodded, though the comment on her father did make her sigh a little to herself. She stood back up, before stepping back to her nest, sitting in it as she began to clean herself, for real this time. She decided if Roseleaf wasn't going to come pick her up for training today, then she might visit Cherrycloud and Ashkit in the nursery.

Mothtumble purred as her apprentice spoke, letting out a small laugh. "Of course not, you know there's no fun had around here without you." She mewed, watching him leave. Her smile faded once the tom was gone, her gaze fixated on the senior warriors leaving the leaders den. She noticed the absence of Tigerlily leaving, meaning she was still inside with Moosestar. She felt like she had bees in her belly as she thought about the two, though she was unsure why. The she-cat shook her head, trying to force the uncomfortable feeling away, but it was of no use. Mothtumble went to go back to her work of sorting herbs out, in an attempt to keep herself busy and away from that feelings that was stinging at her insides, like a swarm of bees attacking after someone attempted to harm their hive, but she noticed Bluewhisker heading towards her den before she had the time to turn around. the she-cat sighed, waiting for Bluewhisker to enter her den and ask whatever needed to be asked of her, no use in starting up the job she had been doing when there was obviously going to be a more important task at hand.

Rabbitpaw feigned being hurt by the young tom, falling to the ground dramatically. He wasn't too bad for an untrained kit, Rabbitpaw had to admit, and she was excited to see who his mentor would be and how they would refine his skills. "You beat me!" She mewed, eyes shining with amusement as Ashkit's attention was suddenly diverted to Riveripple coming in with minnows. She sat up, sitting down and watching him go pick up the minnows. When he brought them to her and dropped them at her feet, Rabbitpaw smiled, nuzzling the kit's cheek. "That's so sweet, thank you Ashkit." She mewed, hooking both the minnows with her claws and dropping them into her mouth, purring with delight at the taste. While fish wasn't her favorite prey, she much preferred her name-sake, she wasn't going to pass up her chance at getting some food in her tummy before Bluewhisker took her out on a patrol or had her begin training in the rain. She looked over at Cherrycloud, giving the queen a small smile, "Ashkit's going to get his apprentice name soon, right? Are you excited to finally get out of the nursery?" She asked, flicking her tail on the ground in front of Ashkit, in an attempt to get him to practice his hunting skills.

Thistleflight didn't say anything after Vervainclaw spoke, wondering if she was right. From what Mistlespots and Icestep had told him, he'd never become that important with his attitude, but he didn't really believe them. They never understood him anyway. "One day, I'll be making the important choices for this clan, I'm sure of it. Mistlespots and Icestep will just have to wait and see." He mewed, mostly to himself. He gave Vervainclaw a small look, wondering about what many things she could be thinking about. He wasn't sure, especially since his mind was so focused on being the best warrior he could be and surpassing his sister and the other senior warriors. "If you'd like to talk about whatever is on your mind, I'm here, it's not like we've got much else to do with all this rain." He mewed, curling his tail around his paws, "I'm sure you do belong in important meetings like that, by the way, you're a skilled warrior, not to mention a beautiful one, if you just put yourself out there, everyone will notice what you have to offer to the clan." When Beetlepaw padded up, Thistleflight was about to speak, but Strikinggaze beat him to it. When the other tom agreed to accompany the medicine cat and said he and Vervainclaw should stay in camp to keep an eye on everything, Thistleflight stayed quiet.

Mistlespots stood silently as Timberfoot asked Bluewhisker to go speak to Mothtumble about preparing herself for the upcoming battle. The senior warrior shook her head, padding after Timberfoot towards the fresh-kill pile. She wasn't going to eat, even though she knew she ought to. The younger cats needed it more, she'd be able to last on the meal she had the night before. "I'm concerned about all this. Especially with how eager both Tigerlily and Moosestar seem to be. And the fact that Mothtumble hasn't been consulted about the battle. Shouldn't our medicine cat at least have a say in what happens?" She asked, mostly speaking to herself, but the question was also aimed at Timberfoot. "Though, I suppose if Starclan didn't want us to take back Sunning Rocks, they would have sent her a sign." The she-cat flicked her tail, her paws squelching as she walked through the mud. There wasn't much she, or Timberfoot could do at this point but support their leader and deputy, though she did hope that maybe Mothtumble would be able to talk some sense into Moosestar.

Strikinggaze gave a small smile as the medicine cat apprentice walked into the warriors den, dipping his head in greeting. At Beetlepaw's question, he gave a nod. "I'll come with you, Thistleflight, Vervainclaw, you two should stay here. Keep an eye on the camp and stay dry. There's no need for all of us to get wet." He mewed, standing up and padding over to the medicine cat apprentice. He walked out of the den, fluffing his fur up against the rain, but his efforts were in vain as the downpour just smoothed his fur back down and slicked it to his body. "What herbs are we going after? If you describe them to me I can help you look for them, though I'm not sure I'll be much help, I'm not medicine cat after all. But I can carry whatever you need me to." He asked, giving Beetlepaw a curious look.

Dullgaze continued to follow the patrol home, keeping herself towards the back. She didn't speak when everyone else started a conversation, just keeping her mouth tightly around her mouse and squirrel. There wasn't anything for her to say anyway, so why start talking. It's not like they would actually listen to her anyway. Her paws ached for her to get back to camp, to crawl into her own next and start drying her fur. She gave a thankful sigh when the patrol began to head back to camp, her footsteps speeding up as they neared the entrance. Ignoring everyone else on the patrol, the she-cat ducked into camp, dropping her catch onto the fresh kill pile quickly. The longer the rain pounded around her, the more agitated she got. The she-cat quickly made for the warriors den, avoiding looking at her brother as he spoke to Beetlepaw. She settled into a dry spot, away from her nest and quickly began trying to dry her fur, licking it the wrong way in order for it to dry faster.

Ashclaw sat under the protection of the lip of the roof of Dolly's two-leg home, sitting on their front steps, waiting for the rain to stop. He had been wandering the two-leg place when it started, and he immediately took shelter under the roof. It made him feel safe to be where Dolly used to live, knowing she was watching over him with their two kittens by her side. He looked up at the sky, watching as the rain poured down in sheets. For some reason, this storm didn't unnerve him, it calmed him down. . except when he thought about his sister, Cherrycloud, and his son who were in Tranquilclan, having to deal with the weather. He frowned, his paws itching to run to them, to protect them from the storm, but he knew that wasn't possible. He had chosen to leave the clan, and that is where he must stay. He sighed, hoping his sister and his son were alright. The short furred tom turned away from looking into the forest, hopping off of the front steps of the two-leg nest and walking into the open street. The roads were quiet, and he took the chance to cross, heading towards the forest.

He looked at OIlpaw bringing a squirrel to the elder's den as he dropped his catch to the fresh-kill pile. He thought to bring something to the queens but saw there were so many cat's that he thought that the three could've already got their meals.

He then looked at his patrol there for a moment before looking back to the two "Just wanted to inform you that the territory seemed to be untouched, only the water is high everywhere and the riverbank is dangerously slippery" he meowed to them as he walked closer to them.
