Fernleaf|In Camp|Tags: -Nightflash-|

Fernleaf smiled and flicked her tail in greeting to Nightflash, before turning to follow her gaze over to Thornfall. She rolled her eyes and shook her head slightly. "Probably has something to do with whatever is making him tired. He certainly won't be any help to anyone today, dragging his paws around like that. "She mewed before smiling lightly back at the she-cat. "I was about to head out hunting since Pebblepaw isn't around, did you want to come with me? We could check the far south side of the forest for possible scent markers for a border while were there." She mewed, eager to be moving around outside the camp and doing something.

Lilydawn|In Camp|Tags:-Minkpaw-|

Lilydawn smiled thoughtfully at Minkpaw, her whiskers twitching with amusement as she glanced at her kit," I might need help washing Frostkit after she's done playing in the mud." She purred with amusement. "Other than that, not really, the bedding is still alright for now. Though it might need to be changed tomorrow if the rain has cleared." She added more seriously as she wrapped her tail around her paws.

Frostkit|In Camp|Tags:-open-|

Frostkit made a small excited happy sound as she managed to catch the bug and kill it with her paws. She sniffed it curiously before looking up and around for something else to do or investigate. Seeing some puddles slowly gathering up because of the rain, she beamed and raced over to play in them. Her white paws immediately getting full of mud from the wet dirt, it didn't take very long for the rest of her white pelt to follow.

Orangepaw|In Camp|Tags:-Thrushfoot-|

Orangepaw nodded, her bright ginger fur fluffed up with excitement and her dark green eyes gleaming eagerly at the challenge. She turned to her brother with a confident smile. "I bet even with the rain I'll catch more birds than you!"She mewed teasingly.

Cragpaw|In Camp|Tags:-Thrushfoot-|

Cragpaw frowned and with a shrug nodded to Thrushpelt in acceptance. He rolled his eyes at his sister's teasing, his pelt unruffled by it in the slightest. He turned to look up at Thrushpelt, "Can we start hunting now?" He asked the young warrior.

Thrushfood nodded to the tom, wrapping his tail around his paws. It was clear he was treating this patrol as a training lesson. While Orangepaw and Cragpaw hunted, Thrushfoot would observe their techniques and give them advice. (Sorry for the short post, I'm on mobile and am a lil busy)

Gingertree | she-cat | 22 | warrior | tags; Cloudpaw
While Gingertree wasn't the best fan of the rain she wasn't going to say anything about it now, if they could find a squirrels or two each and take it back to the clan then they could go back and work on the mud beginning to clump to their pelts. "I don't know who she's going to pick honestly, I think there's a few who she's looking at but from what I've seen she doesn't favor one over the other. She may surprise us all though who knows." Gingertree told the apprentice. She knew that she was most likely not in the running and that was just fine with her because while she liked to help others and work with them she didn't feel like she would be a good helper when it came to leading the clan or even if the day came leading the clan.


Silver | tom | 22 | loner | tags; open
With his morning starting off a bit different than he had expected Silver decided that he mine as well try and hunt now to get his day started. His ears perked as he walked quietly around scanning for any signs of prey in the area. The rain begins to come down won't help with his hunt, but his ears down a bit Silver still decides to try.

Turtle ~ Location: marigold patch, forest ~ Tags: Nightecho ~

Turtle smiled. "Its alright, and yes. But I don't need you protecting me like a kit! I didn't come all this way for you to heal me again. I came to find you," she said, looking away, the wariness was finally showing in her eyes. "I don't want you to feel like whenever I'm around, that you need to help me. I know I can be clumsy, but If you only start coming to heal me and then leave, then you might as well not come." She knew that she was probably sounding rude, and she didn't want to lose a friend, but thats what she wanted. A friend, not a caretaker. She moved so that he could see her leg more clearly.

Rivermist ~ Location: camp ~ Tags: Hawkwing, Thistlewing, Leopardpelt~

Rivermist finally got away from Blizzardwind, but his words hit her hard. She knew that she wasn't acting like her usual self, but there wasn't many who could help. Especially since Hawkwing went back to his old ways. "Hey Thistlewing, Leopardpelt,
I wouldn't trust him if I were you! Knowing him he's just trying to impress you. He probably didn't even get the eggs himself," she teased, seeing Hawkwing showing them his catch. She knew very well that he most likely caught them on his own, but taunting him felt good again. She sat a few tail-lengths away from them, a slight smile on her face that didn't quite reach her eyes.

Blizzardwind ~ Location: camp ~ Tags:open ~

Blizzardwind could feel a light mist start to fall as he sat down on a warm stone. He curled his tail around him and closed his eyes, not really caring much about anything. The mist felt nice against the heat of the breeze.

Thrushfood nodded to the tom, wrapping his tail around his paws. It was clear he was treating this patrol as a training lesson. While Orangepaw and Cragpaw hunted, Thrushfoot would observe their techniques and give them advice. The tom, like Hawkwing, was known for being a skilled hunter. The only reason Thrushfoot was so skilled was due to his long legs, which blessed him with a longer stride than most cats.

"Well I hope they pick soon. Starclan won't be pleased if Sunstar doesn't have a deputy by sunrise tomorrow." Cloudpaw said, she was about to continue when she heard something moving not far off. The shecat, fur now coated in a thin layer of mud, quickly went into hunting mode. She sniffed the air, able to pick up the scent of squirrel through the smell of the rain.

Nightecho ; Forest ; 20 moons ; Tags - Turtle
Night echo sniffed at her leg, "I know Turtle." He said ears flat, "It's just been so long since I last saw you i want to make sure you're well off... Plus I'm a medicine cat and can't always help it." He gave her a faint smile at his last comment before lightly applying herbs to her sprained paw and giving her poppy seeds for pain. Once he was finished the small black tom sat beside the loner. "I wish i could tell you where the best hunting grounds are but I usually leave camp just to find herbs." He liked his paw in a vain attempt to groom the mud from it. "But it shouldn't be too hard to visit you with that in mind."

Hawkwing ; Camp ; 30 moons ; Tags - Leopardpelt, Thistlewing, Rivermist
Hawkwing smiled as Rivermist joined in the small groups banter, his ego clearly being fed to the max despite the teasing. "Haha, trying to turn them against me or something?" He replied, "I can prove i know where at least a dozen nests are, sweetheart. I'll show you all if you want. Once the rain stops of course."

[.kingdom.]

Turtle ~ Location: marigold patch, forest ~ Tags: Nightecho ~

Turtle looked up at him as he sat down. "Thank you. And well considering I'm surrounded by marigold, of course it shouldn't be hard. And its alright. I don't need to know. I wouldn't want to hunt in the territory, that's rude," she answered, slowly lowering her paw so the herbs didn't get messed up.

Rivermist ~ Location: camp ~ Tags: Hawkwing, Thistlewing, Leopardpelt~

Rivermist glared at Hawkwing, completely ignoring the other two cats. "Don't call me that, I'm not your sweetheart," she said icily. She didn't want to be so rude to him, but she couldn't help it, seeing that he didn't actually care if she was there or not, it was only making him more confident in what he was doing.

Blizzardwind ~ Location: camp ~ Tags:open ~

Blizzardwind could feel a light mist start to fall as he sat down on a warm stone. He curled his tail around him and closed his eyes, not really caring much about anything. The mist felt nice against the heat of the breeze.

"If any of my clanmate's find you, just tell them you knew me from the lake." Nightecho said, he stayed with Turtle for a little while longer before letting out a short sigh. "They'll be missing me at the camp soon... I need to go." The small black tom gathered up the leaf holding his herbs before looking back at turtle, "I'll visit as soon as I can."

Hawkwing ; Camp ; 30 moons ; Tags - Leopardpelt, Thistlewing, Rivermist
Hawkwing smirked knowing what he said got on Rivermist nerves, "Aw why not?" He said with a feigned pouty face before returning to his typical smirk, "Oh come on Rivermist, you know i meant nothing by it. I was only teasing. " His piercing blue eyes looking right into her's, a hint of knowing in them. However that hint left as fast as it came, Hawkwing soon looked back at the other she-cats, including Rivermist. "Anyway, what yo you stay? Boarder patrol once the rain stops, gathering a couple eggs on the way?"

[.kingdom.]

((On mobile))

Rivermist sighed. "You're always teasing," she said quietly so the other two wouldn't hear. "I'm game," she said louder. "Someone needs to put you in your place," she challenged. It sounded like she was joking but her blue eyes were like chips of ice.

Turtle nodded. "Alright, I know you will," she mewed. She touched her nose to his cheek, smiling faintly. "Thank you for helping me."

We could check the far south side of the forest for possible scent markers for the border on that side of the forest while were there." She mewed, eager to be moving around outside the camp, doing something, and besides with no official borders set up yet, it would be good to scout the edges of their territory for future markers.

Lilydawn smiled thoughtfully at Minkpaw, her whiskers twitching with amusement as she glanced at her kit," I might need help washing Frostkit after she's done playing in the mud." She purred with amusement. "Other than that, not really, the bedding is still alright for now. Though it might need to be changed tomorrow if the rain has cleared." She added more seriously as she wrapped her tail around her paws as she looked up at the cloudy sky.

Frostkit|In Camp|Tags:-open-|

Within a few moments of playing within the muddy rain puddles, the young she-kit's white fur had turned nearly completely brown with mud. She giggled as she pounced from puddle to puddle, creating small splashes of murky rainwater as she did so. Her bright blue eyes shined gleefully as she played, enjoying the feel of mud between her toes and not really minding get wet. She hoped her mother wouldn't signal for her to come back into the nursery soon.

Orangepaw|In Camp|Tags:-Thrushfoot-|

Eager to prove her boast to her brother, the bright ginger she-cat quickly moved away from the two toms, her senses pricked for signs of prey. Knowing that with the rain she stood a better chance of hearing prey then scenting it, she listened attentively for sounds of birds. After a few moments, she heard the sound of a bird's nest not too far off, and quietly followed the sound to an old pine tree. The young birds were making a racket, and crouching down she could see the robin parents searching for worms at the base of the tree to feed them. She knew she couldn't catch both birds since the hatchlings would die without a parent but she figured she could catch one and maybe kill one or two of the hatchlings to. Crouching low to the ground she stalked quietly closer to where the robins were searching for food at its base, careful to stay in the cover of the nearby bushes with her tail down. She waited till one of the birds was on the ground and the other had flown away in search of food elsewhere before pouncing. She missed but managed to quickly catch it before it could make too much noise. She waited quietly near the tree till the other robin had come and gone again, before climbing up the tree towards the nest. Not wasting any time, she caught two of the four hatchlings there that were about half the size of their parents. She quickly climbed down with them, when she heard the other robin return and buried them with the robin she had caught earlier.

Cragpaw|In Camp|Tags:-Thrushfoot-|

Flicking his tail to show he had understood, he watched his sister leave through some bushes before he padded over to some trees in the opposite direction. Though not very optimistic that he would catch anything with the rainy weather, he decided to try his best regardless. Taking a deep breath, he tried to see if he could scent anything as he walked further away. After awhile he managed to catch the faint scent of a bird that was perched in the cover of a large old oak tree. Careful to be as quiet as he could, he climbed up the tree and settled on a fat branch that was right next to the bird's branch but slightly under it. He waited a few moments, watching as the bird went from being alert because of his climbing to once more relaxed because he had not moved a muscle since settling on the branch. Patiently he waited till the bird moved closer toward him by chance before quickly moving to catch it with his front paws while digging his back claws into the branch to keep his balance. A few moments later he climbed down with his prey, happy that he had managed to catch something.

Nightecho ; Forest ; 20 moons ; Tags - Turtle
NIghtecho got flustered once again as soon as turtle touched his cheek. "Um uh well, I'll see you soon!" The tom nodded his goodby before disappearing in the undergrowth. It wasn't long before Nightecho was back safe in camp. The small medicine cat first returned to his den to sort his new stock of herbs, once he was finished with that Nightecho headed to the Nursery. "Pardon me," he said to Lilydawn, "I have some parsley for you, now that Frostkit has been weaned.

Thrushfoot ; Forest ; 25 moons ; Tags - Orangepaw, Cragpaw
While Thrushfoot waited for the apprentices to return, the tom did some hunting of his own. He had gathered some worms that were fleeing from the rain and laid them out in the open. He waited a little longer and sure enough a mole appeared. As soon as he saw the dark pink nosed creature Thrushfoot pounced, killing it.
