"His name is Blood." she said. "We-Er, Gatorfoot and Whitemuzzle went to check out what the smell was and ran into him and another cat. The older one ran off, but they brought Blood here back to camp. Erm, I met them at the camp entrance and showed him to the fresh-kill pile." Spottedkit half-lied, shuffling her paws. She wasn't an excellent liar, but she managed to succeed sometimes. Then again, Bluefeather probably overheard their conversation, since she was in the same den and all.

Bluefeather)

"Blood, who is or was your father?" she asked slowly.

Blood)

"Sam was my dad. He died." he flattened his ears as she started sobbing.

[rocoboq]

She jumped a little when Bluefeather began sobbing, it was so sudden. Not knowing what to do, she just stood there awkwardly. "I-I take it you knew him? Sam, that is?" she asked, finally thinking of something to say.

[ShadowBoi]

Bluefeather)

"H-he was m-my mate." she sobbed.

Blood)

His eyes widened "Mom?" he asked quietly.

"Oh, come on Venomfang! Put your big mouth to good use for once-" She cut herself off as Silvertail brought down two more eggs from the nest and proceeded to tell her to take them back down the tree. Fawnstep nodded, gently taking one in her mouth and nestling the other under her chin, pressed against her chest. She carefully made the lengthy descent back to the ground, one branch at a time. The wind was picking up a little and she hoped that the tree's branches would remain stable enough to support Silvertail's weight up there. Finally, her paws hit the familiar, and comforting, feeling of dirt and pine needles as she made the final leap onto the forest floor. Fawnstep carefully set the eggs down beside the other two that sat at the foot of the tree and warily glanced up at the silver tabby, "Be careful!"

[rocoboq]

Her eyes widened at the revelation. Now that wasn't something you saw every day. "I'll leave you two alone so you can... Talk, or whatever." she said. As she exited the medicine cat den, she was hit with sudden boredom. She finally decided to play with a feather off of one of the many birds in the fresh-kill pile.

Bluefeather)

She hugged Blood and her crying quieted a little.

Blood)

He was a bit upset "Why did you abandon me?!" Bluefeather sighed "I didn't. Your father stole you from me when we had a fight. I tried to find you, but I couldn't." Blood sniffed and hugged her before walking over to Spottedkit.

Mildtail
Female :: Medicine Cat :: 36 Moons Old
▬▬▬✖▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The medicine cat yawned at the mouth of her den. There was a sparrow in between her paws which she prodded but a few times without actually taking a bite. True, she did feel the pangs of hunger in her stomach but something had been gnawing away at her mind for some time now, though she didn't quite know what that was. With a roll of her eyes and an annoyed flick of her tail, she pushed it past and began to eat small bites until eventually, the she-cat finished. The camp was strong and healthy which was fine since it made her job easier. Soon, there would be the first gathering as the moon was nearing its full form. That would be interesting to say the least. All in all, she didn't know why she felt so nervous all the time. Perhaps it was the fact that everything was at peace for so long. Maybe she was just waiting for things to come crashing down. Hmm... what a happy thought.

Emberpaw
Male :: Apprentice :: 10 Moons Old
▬▬▬✖▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

At Icepaw's words he didn't even wait to go in for the first attack. The fiery tom's shoulders bunched and in quick succession that was not expected due to his size, he slunk under Icepaw's belly and out to the other side until he was behind the other cat. Then, he grabbed hold of Icepaw's tail and yanked hard, using his muscles to perhaps cause the white apprentice to lose his balance. As for one on one fighting, Emberpaw had not had a lot of it though his moves were expertly drawn out. Over and over, he would practice with himself against trees or bushes - really anything that he could dig his claws into. He would never back down from a fight. And he would never go easy on any opponent.

Icepaw was blind. But Emberpaw only saw a cat with claws and teeth so. What was the alternative? To go easy on the other? If he did that it would be an insult to booth himself and Icepaw. If everyone took pity on this apprentice than what would they teach him? No, Emberpaw would probably do the opposite and try harder. That's what he believed and if anyone thought it was harsh than tough.

Silvertail
Female :: Warrior :: 33 Moons Old

"I'll be fine!" She nodded curtly as she watched Fawnstep make her descent down to the forest floor. With a satisfied chirp of approval, Silvertail made her way back to the nest. The last egg looked so small by itself and she gave thanks to Star Clan for the mother's sacrifice. However her brief moment of appreciative silence was cut short by a sqawk loud enough to wake the whole forest. Movement caught the corner of her eye, and Silvertail spotted a flash of angered wings. Mouse dung! A quick plan flitted through her mind and soon she backed closer to the trunk for more support. As expected the bird, came at her beak first and eyes aflame. There would be no second chance and if she was going to try to catch the thing she'd need all her agility in a moments notice. The sparrow was on her in a matter of seconds but before it could attack, Silvertail took a deep breath and jumped from her stationary stand still position into the air. The sparrow, caught unaware, shot under the silver tabby who landed back down right on top of it, catching the prey in her claws like fish hooks. Her heart was beating fast as she realized that her back leg was hanging off the side of the branch dangerously. Swallowing her nerves, Silvertail scooped up the weakened... and now dead sparrow in her jaws and proceeded to the nest with her tail held high like a proud kit.

Venomfang
Male :: Warrior :: 29 Moons Old
▬▬▬✖▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The tom paced back and forward in a manner that must have made him look a little insane. His tail was lashing to and fro and he barely heard Petal flower approach with the rabbit. It had gotten a little quiet up in the tree. Finally, the tom turned to Petalflower and flicked his tail, "What!? ... Oh." He looked down at the rabbit that the she-cat had brought him and sighed, "Just... set it down by those eggs. Fawnstep!" He perked his ears in relief when the she-cat appeared on the ground with two eggs on her person. Quickly he straightened his fur out and padded over to her, hiding his anxieties. "Silvertail. Is she still up there? You left her up there?!" Growling, he turned his back to both Fawnstep and Petalflower and fixed his gaze up to the trees. He had one job! One job! And that was to make sure that stupid feline didn't get hurt. And what does she do? She's raiding a bird's nest of all things. Previously sitting, Venomfang shot up when he heard the furious noises of a mother who just realized her eggs were missing. "Silvertail!" he spat in frustration and an inch of concern. When there was no reply he waited until he heard silence from above. Well, she hadn't fallen so that was something. He waited, his whiskers twitching until he heard movement and a moment later a silver tabby hopped to the ground, carrying an egg in her mouth and a sparrow under her chin. He opened his mouth in anger and looked at Fawnstep who undoubtedly was the one that lured her in the trees in the first place. But he didn't really say anything. Just a bunch of indistinguished noises from the back of his throat. Silvertail shot him another confused look as she passed, setting the articles down by the others, "I said I'd be fine..."

Hollowkit
Female :: Kit :: 2 Moons Old
▬▬▬✖▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The kit stumbled about the camp with a mischievous grin on her face. It only took a couple of minutes for her to come across Bluefeather and Spottedkit. She flicked her spindly tail and hopped over, suddenly taken aback by Bluefeather who was... what? Crying? Interesting. She hadn't even noticed that there was a stranger standing literally a couple pawlengths from her and she finally looked at the newcomer. The hairless kit turned and and followed after Spottedkit, "Who is that? Shouldn't we be chasing it out of our camp?"

//I'll be going out to eat dinner so I don't know exactly when I'll be back on Busy me.

[ShadowBoi]

Blood)

He heard Hollowkit and he growled "I'm Blood. Bluefeather's son. You are?"

[Animals65]

Petalflower nods and places the rabbit next to the eggs. "The eggs look delicious!" she said licking her lips. "It would be a nice little change to the fresh-kill pile for a while. I havent had eggs in a long time!" She remembers how much she loved the taste of eggs when she first tried them as an apprentice, licking her lips at the memory.
