Sparrowpaw ~ Tom ~ Apprentice ~ Tags: Silverpaw

Sparrowpaw woke up to a reek of a bad smell and some cat screaming. He scrambled to his paws, his blue-gray eyes darting to Silverpaw. Her jaw seemed to be ajar starting at one of the fello apprentices. At first, he thought she was trying to wake everyone, but the smell seemed to worry him. He went over to her gazing down at Applepaw. There, the tom saw Applepaw in blood. "What happened?! Where is Honeypebble when you need him!?" The apprentice's tail lashed in worry, not sure if he was just unconscious or worse.

Lionmask grumpily pushed his way out of the warriors den. He was feeling extra irritated today. He just wanted to get out of camp, so he decided to use his apprentice as an excuse. “Amberpaw!” He barked into the apprentice den “Come on we’re going hunting!” But when he looked in the den, he saw a crowd of the apprentices. “Hey! What are you lot doing?” He hissed, pushing his way into the den “Dear StarClan! What’s that horrid smell?!”

she choked back her emotions as cars began to crowd around her. “I... I think...” Silverpaw didn’t know if she could finish her sentence, she glanced at the two toms, hoping they would understand what she meant. “No... please NO!” she bowed her nose to her paws.

Sparrowpaw ~ Tom ~ Apprentice ~ Tags: Silverpaw, Lionmask

Sparrowpaw looked at Silverpaw, then at Applepaw. He felt a gloom inside him making him shiver. He didn't want to say himself of what Applepaw's condition was at. He looked at his stiff body, limp on her moss bed. Then he narrowed his gaze, now a bit angered. "What c-could of had done this?! W-who..." he was going to break to tears at this point, crouching down beside him, "W-why Starclan?! Why?" his mew quiet, looking suddenly at Lionmask. The warrior standing above him like a tree. "I-It's Applepaw! H-he..." he couldn't finish his sentance, as the word had terrified the tom. His paws fidgeting in his stress looking at his friend's corpse. It horrified him all together.

Silverpaw raises her nose to brush it against his shoulder. “I’m going to go get Honeypebble and Breezefire.” she meowed, rushing out of her den yowling. “HELP! HELP! ITS APPLEPAW HES- he’s...”

Lionmask scowled at the cats. He brushed them away and looked at the scene in front of him. His eyes took in the sight. He felt his muscles relax, tail dropping and shoulders sagging. “Great StarClan.” He whispered. Shock took hold of him. “Get out.” He ordered the young cats “Go on! You don’t need to see this.” He pushed the apprentices out of the den.

Honeypebble | Tom | Medicine Cat | Tags: Breezefire, Lionmask, Silverpaw

Honeypebble awoke with a snort, his eyes opening slowly. He took in a deep breath, then let out a cough as he shuffled to his paws. He could hear the screams of his younger clanmate, and as he perked his ears his eyes widened. "Dear Starclan, what is going on?" he mumbled under his breath, shaking his head. "Breezefire, get up. Something is going on." He prodded his apprentice in the side, but didn't wait for her to stir. He quickly grabbed the common herbs, goldenrod, poppy seeds, and cobwebs, wrapping them with a reed to hold them in his jaws. He ran out, pushing past the mass of apprentices and warriors in front of the entrance to the apprentice's den. He looked at Silverpaw, who had called his name, and could see the fear and sadness in her eyes. His tail began to droop as he crouched to enter the dimly lit apprentice's den. As he moved towards the still body of Applepaw, he let out a deep sigh. He dropped his herbs, dipping his head to Lionmask.
"He already hunts among the stars.. the smell that lingers is proof of that." He touched his nose to the apprentice's fur, and shut his eyes to pray quietly to Starclan. He could tell that the apprentice had been here almost all night at least- his fur was as cold as the night air had been. He looked up to greet Lionmask's gaze, whispering hoarsely "Get the deputy, or the leader. Whomever you find first. I believe this to be foul play."

Breezefire jolted up after hearing her name being shouted. “Y-yes?” She asked the emptiness in the den. “Where is Honeypebble?” She murmured and walked out of the den. A crowd of cats surrounded the apprentice den. “What is wrong?” But she heard the screeches and mews of despair and sadness. A death had occurred, and it was too late for her to change anything about it.

Silverpaw choked back a wail, she had grown up with Applepaw since they were kits, and now they would never speak another word to each other again, never share a fresh catch, never race each other across the creek. She wanted a cat to comfort her, to tell her it would all be okay. But a voice inside of her told her it wouldn’t, things would never be the same! She whimpered and padded up to Breezefire. “I can’t believe he is dead! Applepaw didn’t do anything wrong!”

Lionmask bowed his head in grief as the medicine cat confirmed what he already knew. He blinked up at him and nodded. Applepaw was gone. Even though he didn’t know the apprentice, it was still a tragic event. Taking Honeypebble’s orders, he bounded to the leader’s den. “Tanglestar! Willowstream” He cried as he ran “Come quick!”
