It's a difficult task, being a leader of a warrior clan without having a deputy. They completed the smaller, but equally important tasks that the leader supposedly had no time for. It was just unfortunate for Bearstar that he had no deputy, since his previous one, Honeynose, left the clan to pursue a love life with a tom from RainClan. It had been an unfortunate loss for the clan, but it was what Honeynose had wanted in her life, so Bearstar had no choice but to let her go. Besides, it wasn't like he had any intention of kicking the bucket just yet. He hadn't even been leader for that long! But now that he was in the position, Bearstar had begun to understand why a deputy was required in the clan. Sometimes, doing things by yourself was an absolute pain the the tail.

Bearstar rose to his paws as sunshine began to stream into his den. New leader, no deputy, and no mate. He was such a fantastic example of what a warrior cat should be. He was rapidly reaching the end of his life, and the tom couldn't even get his act together and court a female. He was the leader, for StarClan's sake! He hated to admit it, but Bearstar had been secretly hoping that his status would give him a better chance at falling in love, but it had easily been proven wrong. Firefur was already expecting a family, and he was younger than the leader himself! Sighing at the thought, Bearstar shook out his pelt, and padded out of the leader's den, flicking his tail as he made his way over to the centre of the camp, and sat down. He wasn't going to wake them up just yet. They would need their rest to go on hunting and territory patrols.

"Good morning, Bearstar." a voice called, and Bearstar looked up to see a white she-cat, Cinderheart, make her way through the mist and sit down across from him.

"Hello there, Cinderheart." Bearstar replied, dipping his head in greeting to the she-cat. "I'm going to assume you're wanting to go on hunting patrol?" A small smile twitched on his muzzle as Cinderheart laughed softly, and looked over at the leader, her eyes twinkling with amusement.

"You bet."

Thrushflight sat up in his nest, his light green eyes glinting in the small amount of sunlight that reached inside the dark den. The tom's ears pricked forward as he listened to the light snoring of his clan-mates, his tail lashed once as he swiftly rose to his paws and weaved his way through the nest of sleeping warriors to exit the den, he was almost immediately greeted with the morning mists. But it didn't bother him, it didn't bother any cat within the clan, they'd grown up with these mist's. Thrushflight looked around camp, he was quick to notice he was one of the very few cats that were awake.

"Lazy mouse-brains." He mumbles under his breath as he glances over his shoulder to look back at the warriors den, easily noticing the movement of awakening warriors. He snorted lightly and looked around camp today, he'd probably be sent on a hunting patrol or just border patrol. But today he felt the need to go stir someone up, just for a bit of fun. His gaze scanned the camp's clearing quite contently as he looked for his target. His gaze landed on the medicine cat den, he often went to stir up Dawnpetal, he found it quite amusing. Though he never went too far and he always made sure they'd understand he was only there to stir them up.

Thrushflight eagerly bounded across the misty clearing to the medicine cat den, confidently poking his head into the den. "morning Dawnpetal." He called cheerfully into the den, ignoring the fact that her apprentice, Icepaw was also in the den and most likely sleeping. Thrushflight couldn't help but let out a quiet purr, and a friendly grin spread across his muzzle as he looked into the den.

Birdtail woke to the sun shinning on her face as her nest was nearest to the entrance. She carefully walked around her sleeping den-mates and went outside. The air was covered in mist, as usual, and Birdtail could make out two other figures talking, who she figured was Dawnpetal and a warrior. She walked across the camp and found all the apprentices still asleep in their dens. "Great StarClan, hedgehogs will be flying by the time you lot wake up" she said fairly loudly to all the apprentices. The cats started stirring, including her own apprentice Leafpaw, so she decided to leave them to actually get up.

Then Birdtail saw Cinderheart with Bearstar, she assumed he would be organising the patrols. She sometimes felt sad that Honeynose had left, but there was no-way she could EVER become deputy, even if she wanted to. "Good morning, are we having a patrol?" she asked Bearstar, who appeared to look dazed, or missing the deputy; she couldn't tell.

At the sound of Birdtail's voice, Lionpaw blinked his amber-brown eyes open with a yawn. Quickly getting to his paws, he smiled, nodding in agreement with the warrior. "Yeah, you guys are lay-zee." He mewed, sticking his nose in the air at the other apprentices before trotting around them and out of the den. Once outside, he shook a few pieces of moss from his fur, narrowing his eyes as he looked through the ever-present mist for Skywish. He was ready to go hunting, or do some battle training, or maybe even a border patrol! Padding over to the warriors den, he peeked his head in. Smiling, he made the decision to step right on in, going to prod his mentor with a paw. "Goodmorning, Skywish!" He said brightly, smiling down at the she-cat.

Branchfrost had been awake for a little while now, having gone on an early hunting trip. He was now sitting in a secluded spot in the camp, his large outline just visible through the mist as he groomed himself. His ears pricked as he heard some other cats conversing with Bearstar, and wondered if they were setting up patrols. He'd have to ask Bearstar if he was faring well without a deputy, he was always willing to help out if necessary anywhere he could, but he certainly didn't think he was up for the position of deputy.

Icepaw had been curled up in his nest when Thrushflight called for his mentor, somewhere in between consciousness and sleep. Hearing the toms voice, he opened his eyes, revealing his frosty blue gaze. Scowling, he sat up on his haunches and licked a paw, his tail curling behind him. That cat was always here, bothering them. Didn't he have some kind of warrior duties to attend to?

The pretty calico she-cat had been dreaming pleasantly of chasing a mouse when Thrushflight appeared. Sighing, the medicine cat opened one gleaming eye and rose to her paws to face the handsome warrior. ''I could have been having a dream from StarClan, you know,'' she purred, affection gleaming in her pale green eyes, ''thankfully I wasn't or I would have had your pelt.'' Ears flicking, Dawnpetal's back arched in a stretch and when you spoke again, warmth was flooding into her mew. ''Morning, Thrushpelt. Did you have nice dreams?''

Dawnpetal would never admit it to any cat [except Thrushflight] but she had a massive crush on the tom. It wasn't a good path to be on for a medicine cat, she knew what was forbidden but whenever she layed eyes on him, her heart missed a beat. Dawnpetal's tail twitched and she glanced back at Icepaw who was up before she shot a warning look at her apprentice. Dawnpetal knew that Icepaw wasn't a fan of Thrushflight always popping in but that was his problem, period.

The medicine cat's attention turned back to Thrushpelt and a lazy grin appeared over her muzzle. ''So, Bearstar's picking deputy today, huh?'' Her voice was sweet as honey and her eyes sparkled with light as she watched the tom. ''Are you interested in the spot?'' Dawnpetal briefly wonder if Bearstar would want her help on picking the new deputy. She would go and have a word with him later if he needed it. Who would become deputy? There were many fine warrior who desired the spot and Dawnpetal knew that Bearstar would probably have a hard time picking.

Thrushflight's grin became more teasingly as the she-cat responded to his good morning, telling him that she could have been having a dream from StarClan. He gave a small shrug and seated himself at the den entrance, his fluffy tail swishing behind him. "I'm sure your nest would be nice and warm if you clawed off all my pelt." He teased, referring to her threat she made moments ago. Thrushflight blinked his light green eyes and shot a playful glare at Icepaw as he noticed the annoyed look deep within his gaze. "Nah, no dreams for me last night. I had a peaceful sleep?" He answers, bending downwards to give his chest fur a few licks, flattening down his ruffled up fur.

Thrushflight raised his head again and looked around the medicine cat den. To him it always seemed so stuffy with all the sick or injured cats, and the first time he had came in here he had practicality choked on the strong scent of herbs, but since he made regularly visits he had gotten use to it. Thrushflight looks back at Dawnpetal as the she-cat comments on Bearstar choosing who the deputy were to be, he shrugged. "I guess so." He meows, one of his ears flicked to the side as Dawnpetal asked if he was interested in the position. "Honestly, I don't really know." He said with a short laugh. "I guess it'd be nice to be deputy, but there are better choses. Bearstar will know who to choose." He added, shrugging once again.

Skywish blinks open her light blue eyes as someone prods her side and greets her with a cheerful good morning, without looking she knew who it was. "Morning Lionpaw." She meows, raising her head off her paws and glancing at Lionpaw. "Now out of the warrior den." She adds, rising to her paws and gently nudging Lionpaw towards the den entrance. Skywish gave Lionpaw another nudge the weaved her way around her apprentice and exited the warriors den before him.

The grey she-cat stepped aside, allowing Lionpaw to exit the den. Her grey fur blending into the mist, her light blue eyes gleamed as she turned her attention to Lionpaw. "Lets go see if Bearstar wants us to join a hunting or border patrol." She meows, padding away from the warriors den and approaching Bearstar. She stopped, dipping her head in greeting, "morning Bearstar. Is there any hunting or border patrol me and Lionpaw could join?" She asked, her ears pinning against her head briefly, then pricking forward again.

Icepaw only snorted at Dawnpetal's warning glare, and scowled at the others toms playful one. Getting up with a stretch the tabby tom decided he'd go look through the herb stores for the time being. It was quite clear his mentor had a crush on Thrushflight, and he didn't like it one bit. It wasn't that he was jealous or anything, he just didn't want Dawnpetal getting herself in trouble. Pawing through the multitude of stores, he noted they were low on borage, which with all the queens they certainly might need, and dock leaves. Popping up beside Dawnpetal, he gave Thrushflight the most polite of smiles he could muster, murmuring a 'good morning', before turning his attention to his mentor. "We're low on borage, and dock." He informed, his tail lashing behind him as he gave Thrushflight a final smile, one that was almost taunting, before going around him and out into the misty camp clearing. He quickly made his way over to the fresh-kill pile, taking a mouse for himself and deciding to eat in a little spot not to far from the pile. Hopefully Thrushflight wouldn't invite himself along on the herb expedition to 'help.' But knowing the tom, he would. With a small sigh, Icepaw took a bite from the still warm mouse, observing the other clan cats as they awoke and emerged from their respective dens.

Lionpaw grinned as Skywish awoke, but his grin soon turned into a frown as she ushered him from the warriors den."Aw." He complained, moving forward a few steps as he was nudged. Letting her pass in front of him, he followed after with a small smile on his face. Lionpaw nodded, padding after Skywish. His own white and orange fur didn't blend into the mist well, unlike his brothers, who he eventually spotted having a meal of a mouse. He smiled, waving his tail in greeting. His brother smiled back, but he could tell something was bothering him. He guessed he'd have to ask later. Looking back in front of him, he trained his amber-brown gaze on Bearstar, bowing his head in time with his mentor. Sitting on his haunches, he hoped he could join a border patrol. Lionpaw was a decent hunter, but he thought it more fun to explore the territory and protect the borders from any possible intruders. And it allowed him to get rid of some of his pent up energy with all that walking around.

The she-cat lowered herself into a crouch as she listened to the tom. Her eyes glimmered playfully as Thrushflight commented how her nest would be nice and warm if she clawed his fur off. ''I'll keep that in mind,'' she meowed, her voice light and playful. The calico she-cat gave the slightest of nods as Thrushflight siad on how it would be nice to the deputy but there were better choices. She understood what he meant even though she was a medicine cat.

A low growl rumbled deep in Dawnpetal's throat as he watched her apprentice head over to the fresh-kill pile. Couldn't he at least be a bit nicer to Thrushflight? Even if she did have feelings for the tom, nothing would ever happen between them, would it? Dawnpetal suspected Icepaw knew of her crush but the medicine cat trusted the apprentice to keep his jaws shut.

Dawnpetal's ears flicked and she glanced at Thrushflight. ''Do you want to maybe go by the river?'' she suggested, rather nervously. Embarrassed, the calico she-cat stared at her paws.

Bearstar flicked his tail, watching as cats made their way over and asked him whether they were having patrols or not. What were they thinking, that he couldn't organise them without being asked over and over again? "Yes, yes, yes. Patrols are being organised, keep your fur on you lot." he meowed in a teasing tone, looking over at all the cats. "Okay, Birdtail will lead the territory patrol. Take Thrushflight, Crowface, Branchfrost and Longwhisker with you. Skywish, you can lead the hunting. Take Cinderheart, Birdcry, Applestem and Whitespark with you, and take the apprentices if you deem it necessary." Bearstar twitched his tail and stood up, looking at the warriors. "Birdtail, take your group along the Western border and around, I'll take a look at the Eastern side, and meet you when we get to the south." he spoke, before nodding. "I'll see you all soon."
