Nightfoot
Tom||45 Moons||Warrior||Elec Man, Megaman||Crush: ---||Tagged: Scatterslash

Nightfoot nodded at Scatterslash, giving a friendly smile in return. "Well, you can grab something to eat if you'd like first," He offered, flicking his tail in the direction of the fresh kill pile. He was actually surprised at the pleasant weather they had today, especially figuring it was normally rather rainy during new leaf. He decided to bring up the topic. "The weather is really nice today, especially considering how rough this past leaf bare was." He chirped, looking up momentarily as if to confirm the weather.

Firestrike
Tom||45 Moons||Warrior||Fire Man, Megaman||Crush: ---||Tagged: Woodenpaw, Christine

Firestrike gave an amused chuckle at Christine's nervousness, and listened as Woodenpaw explained how their territory marking worked. "Yup, our actual territory doesn't start until about a tree's length back. We were just out this way thanks to a raccoon," He added on softly, as to not interrupt his apprentice.

Poppyfern
She-Cat||26 Moons||Warrior||WC||Crush: ---||Tagged: Rosetail

After enjoying the sunlight for a couple more minutes, Poppyfern decided to actually make herself useful. She got back up to her feet and took a better look around the camp. Nothing much was happening at the moment, so she went over towards the warrior's den and met eyes with Rosetail, one of the other warriors. She took a seat next to her, before softly asking, "Need anything?" There was nothing else worth talking about at the moment other than the weather, but if she had to be honest with herself it was rather obvious what the weather was currently like.

Honeypaw
She-Cat||7 Moons||Apprentice (Mentored by Moonshade)||WC||Crush: ---||Tagged: Moonshade

Honeypaw nodded as Moonshade confirmed that they would be doing some hunting training again, but what really caught her attention was the mention of battle training. She would be learning to fight already? Maybe then she could match up with Eaglepaw and Starlingpaw! She didn't quite catch her mentor's smile, but bounded after her when they headed off. Honeypaw didn't know all the smells of the forest yet, but was still excited to find something, anything really.

Axl
Tom||15 Moons||Loner||Axl, Megaman X||Crush: ---||Tagged: Frostie

Axl took another bite out of his mouse, the sunlight on his back feeling rather nice coupled with the cool breeze. It was always nice to have the weather agree with his activities, especially in the case of hunting. While he was enjoying the moment, he almost missed the footsteps approaching the corner, and probably would've missed them altogether if it hadn't been for the tell tale ring of a kittypet bell. Before long, he heard a friendly voice call over to him from not too far away. He decided to finish swallowing first before giving a reply (as it would be rude to reply with his mouth full). "Oh, hey there!" He meowed, turning to a gray and white cat sitting a bit off from where he was seated. "My name's Axl, since you asked. Who might you be?" The cat seemed nice enough, so he wasn't worried about talking to her.

Oakenheart had been one of the cats up earlier, and decided to start his morning with a short hunting excursion before joining a patrol. Not even after a few minutes of walking south, he smelled the soft scent of a house cat. Kittypet. He was surprised one would dare to venture this far, being comfortable with their hideous twolegs. He had seen them up close, too, while he was still on his travels in moons past. Deciding to let the prey be, he crouched low, the fur between his toes muting his pawsteps as he crept closer to where the kittypet resided. Before he could get so close to see them, they were up a tree. Oakenheart held in a sigh for sheer stealthiness and frowned--
a usual expression of his.

He waited. After some moments, the kittypet could be heard climbing down from the tree and alighting down rather noisily on the forest floor. Now was when he decided how to confront her: with surprise or dexterity? He voted for the latter and calmly presented himself, though not relinquishing his resting grimace. "Who might you be?" he asked in his rumbling voice. "You are in clan territory, I hope you know that. Did you also know that by trespassing, you are subject to attack, by our laws? You're lucky you ran into me."

She saw Honeypaw's obvious excitement. "I'm going to gauge how you are at fighting right now so I can properly teach you later--
we will spar. But right now I'll take you just outside of camp to where the rocky terrain starts. Oftentimes you might find mice and hares there, perhaps rats. They're all bountiful, but the real challenge of the rocks is balance, coordination, and cover. How do you keep from falling, where do you put your paws, and how are you going to shield yourself from the prey's nose, eyes, and ears? This will be your lesson," she explained as they made their way to the rocks. "There are certain muscles that must be built up, specifically in your back and the ankles. Your tail will be mostly what keeps you balanced, but you have to make sure your core is centered, that you aren't leaning too far to one side, be it front, backwards, left or right." Moonshade tended to get very talky about subjects she knew the gritty details about, and she always explained what she meant. If she were a twoleg, she'd be a walking thesaurus of terms and techniques on hunting and sparring. She was also knowledgeable on many herbs and ways of healing, which her parents taught her and her siblings at a young age in order to survive; ironically, this was taught just before their deaths. Moonshade planned to educate Honeypaw on this subject as well, but not until she has mastered her other subjects and passed her supervised examinations.

She looked up and watched the way the green canopy of newleaf dazzled in the crisp morning air. The birds sang their tunes and filled the entire being of the forest with song. The earth breathed with the wind as it brushed its bare back of dirt, which yielded the forest, living and breathing as well with the earth and the breeze. The trees towered above the cats as they walked down the path that had been trodden on for generations upon generations, flattened out undergrowth marred by the pads of great-granddaddy cats of Mossclan. It was as if the memories of those generations blew past them in the wind, shaking their whiskers, licking their muzzles, petting their pelts and touching their souls. She smelled the earth and the trees and the wind and the memories; it was bittersweet in her nose, but mostly mirthful in the new spring. It was a nice, cool morning, and Moonshade looked forward to being a part of it.

She looked at him "pretty normal I think" she meowed sighing. Walking forward she glanced at the forest noticing a bird flying abovewalked forward and glared as the tom walked off to the path and quickly catched some prey. Smilling she flicked her ears and listened the forest once again, hearing some crashing and beebing, walking toward the voice she noticed a small chick near a tree, next to it's nest "oh poor one, it's nest was fallen" she meowed softy. So small chick had not much to eat for, but it's still better than nothing.

She looekd at the two cats "I see...that was raccoon huh? I am hear of them, never seen one" she meowed to Firestrike then turned to Woodenpaw. She gived her a amused glare "my fur?" she meowed her torthoiseshell pelt, which didn't seen pretty clean to her "well...I just cleaned myself...I umm like to keep my fur clean, so it's not get stuck in branches abd anything" she explained "So the raccoon is gone now, are going back to Pineclan?" she asked.

the short-furred deputy stretched out herself, quickly giving her brown fur a clean to flatten it out. she wanted to look presentable to the clan, not a total mess. she needed to take some pride in her appearance, even if it was simply cleaning her fur. she was sure someone would appreciate her effort to try and look her best. after that short conflict with herself about trying to make herself look presentable, otterstep padded around camp, and noticed her sister sitting by herself. not wanted to leave her in the dust, especially seeming as she cared greatly for her sister, otterstep quickly padded over to her, greeting her with a friendly gesture of her tail, before placing herself next to her sister, tucking her paws under herself, and giving her a quick, sisterly lick over the ear. not surprisingly, causing ryebush, her sister, to purr. "hello ryebush, i didn't expect you to be out here by yourself," otterstep answered to her sister's purr.

ryebush quietly chucked in response to her sister. "well, you're the only other cat i really hang around, i don't think you should be taken by surprise by my absence from the rest of the clan," she responded, "yes, but it would be nice if you could try and get along with some of the other members of the clan, it would be nice to get a break from you for once," replied otterstep, a grin on her muzzle. "otterstep! you don't really mean that, right?" ryebush's ears flattened against her head, and otterstep sighed, pity in her eyes. otterstep licked ryebush over the ear again. "of course not, you're my sister, and my best friend, i can never get enough of you," she said, allowing ryebush to lift her ears back to their original position. otterstep then groomed her sister's pelt, similarly to how she had previously done so to her own fur, trying to make sure it was as clean as possible, and that they didn't look like they had just run through the forest away from dogs. ryebush purred all the way through this, enjoying the warmth and company of her sister.

Friendship can be found in the strangest of places. At this point in time it was found at the edge of the forest.
One might think it odd, seeing two kittypets, a loner, and a rogue bantering and joking as if they'd been friends all their lives, but alas, that was the current situation.
The cats were simply ordinary cats of their usual dispositions - Rowan and Lark, two kittypets who'd lived together for as long as they could remember; Murphy, a rogue with a bad attitude and a short temper; and Redd, a streetwise loner who was quite smarter than she let on. The four seemed like an unlikely group of friends, what with Lark and Murphy's...civil disagreements, we'll call them - but they got on fairly well, for the most part.

At this particular moment in time, Murphy and Lark were having another one of their infamous arguments. Rowan was silently panicking and trying to diffuse the situation while Redd, as per usual, was egging the two on and making matters worse. After all, she knew Murphy better than anything - while he talked a lot of crow-food, he usually didn't act on his violent impulses. Usually.
"You have ten seconds to take that back before I make mouse-meat out of you, toad-brain," Murphy snarled, lashing his tail angrily as Lark smugly smirked back at him.

"Oh, what's this? The great and powerful Murphy, getting so angry over one little comment?" he snickered. "Relax, friend. All I did was suggest a new grooming style."
Murphy rolled his eyes. "Yes, because suggesting I dive in a silver boulder is totally the most valued style right now," he spat.
"It could be for you!"
"Oh, shut up!"

Rowan's tail puffed up as he quickly rose to his paws. "Lark, p-please stop. Murphy, maybe you should take a deep breath? Try and calm down some?"
Redd giggled and pawed at Rowan, mewing, "Oh c'mon, Rowan! It's not like either of 'em are gonna do anything. Might as well leave some entertainment for the rest of us, eh?"
"H-how is this entertaining?!"

Can't let time keep passing me by, run down what I've always been chasing. Black out every fear I've been facing

The ginger and white tom stretched out his front legs, letting out a large yawn before sitting up right in his nest, he shifted around until he was comfortable to gaze out of his den's opening. Brightstar contemplated if he should go out and see his clan or stay in his nest a little longer, he decided that he could stay in his nest a little longer. He was still pretty tired, for he could barely get a wink of sleep the night before. Brightstar flinched a little when he put weight on his right paw and when he looked down he saw that his paw had a few more smaller cuts, most likely from the previous night before.

"Excuse me? I didn't hear anyone say that you could go on! Unless I'm suddenly deaf now, is that the case?" he snapped at Duskpaw "You need to go lay down. And that wasn't a question, it was a medicine cat's order" Asphondelleaf added "I'll speak to your mentor" the tom glanced back to Crowclaw who made his way out of the medicine cat den "You can go on Crowclaw, no need for you in the den now." Crowclaw nodded before wandering off. The grump looked back to Duskpaw "Well? Go on! Go lie down!"

Hold back the river so I can stop for a minute and see where you hide. Hold back the river, hold back

"Aye, aye" she mewed with a nod, and fell back into the pattern that she was doing before, except instead of going left she at first went right before turning around, Stormpaw kept her eyes on her mentor as she went to leap once more, but instead tripped over her own paws and landed face first into the ground. The fluffish apprentice scrambled back up to a stand as quick as she could and backed away from Blackear before crouching down again "t-that didn't happen" she mewed "simple mistake" 'which could effect if you die or live in a battle' she thought

Batfang looked back at Goldenwillow and watched as she neared a certain tree. He watched in confusion before making his way over as well, Batfang stared down at the small chick and sighed "What do you want to do with it?" the black tom mewed and gave his whiskers a twitch as he watched the molly with a questioning look.

I never learned anybody's name, we all vowed that we wouldn't stay

The smokey tom manuvered around the rocks scattered across Mossclan's territory, he was in a northern part of the territory and was minding his own buisness as he enjoyed the solitude from his clan. "I should've went back to Pineclan...." he mewed to himself as he stopped and sat down onto a rock "How are Stormpaw and...ma doin'? Has Stormpaw got her warrior name yet?" he mewed as his voice got lower, he felt tears well up in his eyes and with a shaky breath shook his head 'n-no! I won't cry!'

Month by month the rings on our tree trunks Like old wise eyes grow wider and winter lends them a dead disguise

Sir. Arthur sat outside of his little cottage home, he had himself placed onto the small shielded porch and was softly cleaning his fur. He stopped for a moment and glance over to his right, half expecting to see his sister bounce over and ask if he wanted to go visit their mother and her friends graves or bother him with constant arguements about why violence is so great. But Bumble never came around the corner. Arthur shrugged and continued to clean himself, 'if she doesn't come around once I'm done cleaning thyself, I'll go look for her'

The brown striped molly yawned as she wandered around the forest's edge 'should I visit my brother again this morning?' she thought with a slight smile, she flicked her left ear as she heard voices close by, curious Bumble made her way towards the voices and caught sight of two kittypets, a rouge and a loner "What's happening here?" she mewed out towards the group

Danner stretched out his legs and shook out his fluffy brown fur before stepping out of his kittybed, the tom made his way over to his dish and ate a little before licking his lips and making his way outside, towards his friend Tadao's home. Danner made his way over to Tadao's little cat door but moved out of the way as his friend screamed as he ran out, chasing something small. Danner begain to laugh as he watched his friend's anger rise as he kept missing the little mouse.

I had him!" the tom stopped to catch his breath before chasing after the little mouse once more "GET BACK HERE" Tadao yowled before he ran into a tree which let the mouse get away and bolt into it's den. Danner followed after him with a slower pace, still trying to catch his breath from laughing so hard.

"Alright then!" Aldertail purred with a slight smile before making his way towards the border's edge he glanced around, seen nothing that really caught his eye so he shrugged and continued on. The brown-tailed warrior decided that instead of walking in silence that he would talk to his apprentice "So Wistoriapaw, what do you think your warrior name will be? Is there anything that you absolutely want it to be?"

Also just gonna point out Vide, Sparrowstar wouldn't know of Mossclan, no one knows of Mossclan at the moment (Other then Mossclan themselves), unless they found them on their side of the thunderpath.

Wolfpaw leapt at him with no hesitation, landing a blow on his cheek before leaping back with a stumble. Badgerfang took this opportunity to pounce on Wolfpaw, pinning the smaller apprentice to the ground. ”Not bad.” He said. ”Backing away after making a hit is not a bad idea, but you want to be careful as it can leave you wide open.” He let go of Wolfpaw, taking several steps back before stopping. ”Try again. How about you try to pin me this time?”

He took another look around the area to make sure the raccoon hadn't come back, and was both relieved and disappointed to find that it was still missing, probably somewhere in twolegplace by now. Christine seemed pretty cool to him, even if she hardly seemed to know anything about outdoor life compared to him. "Yup, that was a raccoon. They normally stay over by twolegplace and the thunderpath, but they show up in our territory sometimes as well and try to steal our prey," He explained, and moved on to the second part of the cat's question. "I originally wanted to keep training Woodenpaw here to hunt, but we'll be going back into our territory to do that. Maybe I could give you some pointers while we're out here though?" There'd be no harm in offering to teach the loner a couple things, plus Woodenpaw could get some extra training if Christine accepted. If she declined, he'd probably just take Woodenpaw back near the borders to hunt again.

Honeypaw tried to keep her focus on her mentor's words, but a lot of her attention was diverted by the surroundings. The trees loomed high overhead, and the moss covering the floor felt as if they were walking over a giant nest. Even though she had been outside the camp yesterday and tried her paws at hunting as well, she still couldn't help but feel awestruck at just how big the world was compared to her. She decided to stop focusing on her surroundings and rather tune in to what Moonshade was actually talking about, and caught her mentioning how she would be building up muscles in her back and ankles, and she gave a playful smirk before briefly pouncing at her mentor's tail. "If I'm building muscle with this, maybe one day I'll be as strong as Brightstar and Frostedfluff!" She took another leap at Moonshade's tail again, but slipped on the moss and landed on her stomach with a squeak. Embarassed, Honeypaw quickly recovered, but decided to once again focus on keeping up rather than playing.

As the mossy terrain began to grow more rough on her soft paw pads, Honeypaw slowed her pace to avoid falling once again. Losing her footing here definitely wouldn't feel nice with all the points visible from where they stood, plus she didn't want to seem completely incompetent. The apprentice sniffed the air, her nose catching a bunch of unfamiliar, but pleasant smells coming from all directions, and she could vaguely make out the scent of water among the forest and earth. She wanted to just close her eyes and sink in to the incredible atmosphere, but she was here to train, not explore! Before long, Honeypaw began eagerly pawing at the rocks, seeing if she could find any cool beetles or worms before Moonshade gave her an order.

Moonshade twitched her tail away from Honeypaw as she pounced at it, amused by her kit-like behavior. "Perhaps if you work very hard you might be able to be as strong as them, yes. But being a leader isn't all for strength and agility. Each cat has their weaknesses and fortes. But before you become like them, you must first be able to best me in a fight. I don't let my apprentices off easily," she said, her face softening and nearly chuckling as Honeypaw slipped, though she was fine. "When you're stronger, you'll be able to control your balance better." It was good that she had a playful spirit, but if she slipped the wrong way, she might fall in a different fashion and hurt herself, perhaps breaking a bone, or worse. "Watch where you step, though, if you fall the wrong way, you could be in for a whole heap of trouble."

She led Honeypaw to the part of the territory where the the ground was steep and littered with crags and boulders of all sizes. If one were to follow the slope down, a ravine would be reached, steep though it was. It was a raging river, racing from the mountains with freezing, smothering water. She led her apprentice away from this part of the outstretch of land, but she already knew to keep away from the river from their previous session. "Before we do any hunting, you must practice how you hold yourself. When we are traveling on the smaller rocks like this, one must simply be wary of where they place their paws and keep their tail. You will also do this when you run into larger, more jagged rocks. But when you thread there, your ankles must be loose and able to adjust to different planes. Watch." Moonshade jumped onto the larger rocks, positioning herself onto a steep stone, where she stood solidly as if it were level ground. "See how the line my leg makes a sharp turn upwards as my paw points up where the ankle has bent? You must have support and flexibility in these parts. Before you do this, practice jumping among the smaller rocks," she said. She leaped down from her perch and sat herself down on a flatter rock, close to the ground. She wrapped her tail around her paws and watched Honeypaw practice her leaping.

"Sure!" Woodenpaw answered, then muttered to Firestrike, "So... Is she going to join our Clan?" She asked her mentor to see if they were going to get yet another warrior.
