{Aspenblaze}

Tom-cat--Warrior--26 Moons--Single--No apprentice--Bored--TAGS:Creamflower & Dewpelt/Camp

He listened to Creamflower speak again and nodded along with her words. He doubted it but perhaps he too would one day become a mentor. He didn't quite like the idea of having that sort of responsibility though. He had 'left' his previous clan to avoid responsibilities not gain them after all. Mentoring would also likely cut into his free time, something he wasn't quite willing to give up.
Suddenly his attention was brought back to Dewpelt again as she smiled and rolled her eyes at him. Aspenblaze had long since gotten used to the eye-roll response but he did appreciate the smile that followed the eye movement. "Quite proud~" He purred, "Never satisfied though~" He added before noticing her refuse to talk about Sootstar. Wanting to take his time with the teasing he let the topic of the leader slide away... for now. Instead, he turned his attention to the she-cat's response. "From what Iv gathered I'm sure she is somewhere with Nettlepaw." He shrugged, not actually caring about the whereabouts of the younger cat. "Have you checked the apprentice den? Maybe she is still asleep?" He added for good measure.
He then watched as Dewpelt cleaned herself before turning his gaze towards Creamflower. "Any name ideas for these future kits of yours yet?" He questioned a sly smile on his face as he glanced towards Dewpelt. "If not, perhaps Dewpelt and I can help. I'm sure she plans on being a queen one day and Iv already named a few kits of my own before; so maybe between the three of us we can come up with something." He mused.

{Nightpaw}

She-cat--Apprentice--11 Moons--Single--mentor is Dewpelt--Happy--TAGS:Nettlepaw/In Med den

Suddenly Nightpaw felt she had made a mistake. She realized she may have just gotten her friend in trouble. She hadn't exactly thought through how the cat had gotten to camp before. It had seemed like such a small thing at the time because she had simply been impressed with Nettlepaw but now that she knew the apprentice had single-handedly brought the cat into camp she couldn't help but feel worried. She was worried that Nettlepaw could have been hurt. She listened to her friend defend herself and felt guilty for having brought the whole situation to Copperlily's attention. "Sootstar left with her...So I don't think she was a bad cat.." She added, doing her best to aid Nettlepaw now.

{Thrushcry}

Tom-cat--Warrior--28 Moons--Single--No apprentice--Grumpy--TAGS:Roseflames & Blackfang/Forest

Thrushcry watched as Blackfang successfully caught the bird and swiftly landed a killing bite. His bad mood shifted temporarily to one a bit more relaxed. It was nice to simply go out and hunt with his clanmates.
A small bit of aggravation returned when Blackfang mentioned Roseflames, reminding him of the foolish cat who had left the patrol to wander off on her own. However, as he opened his maw to respond with a curt insult he was cut off by the older cat. The worry and seriousness in her tone made his fur bristle and he lifted his head to scent the air. Sure enough, he smelt it. The strong metallic scent that made his blood run cold. Blood. His eyes widened and then narrowed all in a matter of seconds. "Its Blood." He said in a low voice. The smell reminded him of the massacre that had left him without a family, making his stomach churn and heart quicken. He looked to the older cat for her order. Would they go investigate or return to camp to get more cats?

Lavenderflight listened in only a little, though it wasn't without effort. he saw Aspenblaze look at him, but didn't move, not really sure if he was supposed to approach or not. he didn't know what to think of the tom- the way he pestered cats around the camp with incessant teasing wasn't the most appealing to him. however, his stomach twinged with a small stab of loneliness, spurring him to get to his paws and approach the others cautiously.
he offered a small nod to Aspenblaze, Dewpelt, and Creamflower. not the most adept at conversation, he fluffed out his already messy fur and fiddled with his paw. his tail flicked quickly back and forth. "Hello." he said respectfully. "would you mind if i joined you?" he didn't want to overstep any boundaries.

Copperlily could practically feel the guilt coming off of Nightpaw in waves as Nettlepaw defended herself. Raising a paw, the medicine cat motioned for silence before she spoke. "Nettlepaw, I'm sure that what you did was right in every way. It is our duty to not only help our clanmates, but any cat in need." she paused, golden eyes resting on each apprentice in turn. "However, I want the both of you to know the dangers of bringing unknown cats into camp. Especially with how young both of you are. Nightpaw I know that you will say that you are strong and training to be a warrior, but you know just as well as I that you have much more to learn. Same with you Nettlepaw. This situation could have ended very differently if the cat were a threat." Again she watched the two after she finished speaking, knowing that the two would either barrage her with questions or stay silent on the situation. After a minute Copperlily exhaled and shook her head. "You two need something to do. You are apprentices after all... And I'm sure that Dewpelt wouldn't mind if I took the both of you out for a bit..."

With a kind smile, Dewpelt dipped her head when Lavenderflight approached. "Of course, good morning Lavenderflight" she said warmly. Although she didn't talk much with the other silver cat, she felt as if she should talk to him as if she were longtime friends with him, just as she would do with anyone else in the clan. Turning her attention back to Aspenblaze, she shrugged as he offered her help in naming kits. Him stating that she was planning on being a queen some day caught her slightly off guard. She hadn't told him that before, but then again she didn't really make it a secret that she loved kits. "If you would like help then I'm sure that we could be of assistance but I wouldn't want to influence your decision if you had anything planned."

He felt Tealpaw above him give a nod and jump down, striking his underbelly when it was exposed. "Yes, exactly like that!" Blackstreak praised and smiled. He brought himself to his paws and began grooming himself briefly.

She allowed her friend to take over, grateful for the short relief. Thank you, Nightpaw, she thought to herself and glanced over at the black and white she-cat. In her peripheral vision, Nettlepaw saw her mentor raise her paw to get their attention and to quiet them. "Right..." she started to say, but remained silent while Copperlily continued to talk and warned them about the threat of rogues. After she finished talking and mentioned going out with Nightpaw's mentor, Nettlepaw's ears perked up. "Oh, that would be awesome! What do you think we would learn? Would we do some... hunting?"

Creamflower hears pawsteps heading towards her and turns her head to see it was Lavenderflight, smiling at the tom. "Hello Lavenderflight!" she greeted warmly. "Sure go ahead!" Upon hearing Aspenblaze asking her about whether or not she has named the kits, she shakes her head. "No I havent thought of any yet." she admitted. "I like to see what my kits would look like before naming them. If I planned on names ahead of time, there is a chance that once I see my kits, I might end up changing my mind on the names." When she heard the tom suggest that they can help come up with names, she purrs, happy at the offer. "Having help with the names for my kits would be wonderful!" she said. "Thanks Aspenblaze! You too Dewpelt! Im sure the three of us can come up with the perfect names together!"

Lavenderflight dipped his head to Dewpelt, taking a seat "Thank you, Dewpelt." he looked over the she for a moment. he hadn't really had the chance to talk to the she before this, but he had to admit she had a welcoming presence he couldn't deny. He nodded to Creamflower. "and you, Creamflower." his face stayed neutral as he looked between the two, Dewpelt and Aspenblaze. he wasn't necessarily the biggest fan of kits, but he supposed if he met the right she he'd love his kits more than anything.
He heard Aspenblaze say that he had named his own kits before, though he'd thought Aspenblaze was single. he shook it off, not wanting to pursue the topic lest it make Aspenblaze uncomfortable. he simply satisfied himself with a curious, green-eyed glance. he then turned back to the shes. "if you'd like, i could see if i could help. what you name your kits is ultimately up to you, however." he mewed to Creamflower.

Blackfang quickly buried the robin under a large pine tree. She could tell what Thrushcry was thinking after she spoke after the smell. "I can't tell if it's our clanmates or just something else.. So we have to investigate. If we see anything suspicious, I'll give you a signal to leave" her bright blue eyes gleamed with an awareness of her surroundings. 'This smelled like too much blood to just be a small animal' she thought to herself.

the sun rose to find the ruddy colored she-cat perched in a tree like some kind of bird, perfectly balanced with her tail hanging down behind her as she scans the surrounding tree canopies. her knack for trees seems to confuse the others in the camp, but at least it brings in food. emberhaze looks around like an owl, her head moving while her body remains motionless. her query can sense movement so it's better to be like stone. as the sunlight filters down through the leaves, it wakes the sleeping birds and squirrels and causes them to stir in their nests. this was what the she-cat was waiting for and why she was up a tree so early in the morning. coppery eyes lock onto a target in a tree nearby, a squirrel nest was starting to tremble from movement inside.

emberhaze wastes no time skittering down the tree in which she perches, head first as always, and back up the adjacent tree where she carefully picks and chooses her way up to the nest. her sharp eyes assess each branch before she puts a paw on it, not wanting one to break and send her to the ground for a broken leg or even death. just as she gets level to the nest, it rattles and a squirrel pokes its head out. the huntress quickly lunges forward and grabs the rodent before it can alert to her presence. the kill is quick and silent, but she simply drops the carcass to the ground for later pick up and goes about dispatching all the other squirrels inside the nest. there were only three other young ones, just about ready to leave the nest for their own adventures. she eats the smaller ones and heads farther up the tree to a second nest. this one only has a single squirrel, but it was killed just as quickly and silently as the others.

when the sun reaches the tops of the trees, emberhaze heads back to camp with her prizes. three squirrels and a snake that she had found trying to steal from her. it was hard to give up the precious meat she had caught, but she does put all but one squirrel onto the pile. the last one she takes and hides in a den that's slightly away from the others, she prefers to sleep here rather then the warrior den with the others. it was far too crowded and a lot of the other cats snored or moved around too much for her to get much sleep. once the squirrel she caught was buried at the back of her den, she heads back out to see what the others were doing. idle chatter and some training it seems. emberhaze chooses to lay just inside her solitary den, remaining aloof from the others while still keeping an eye on things.

life has not been kind to such a young kit. especially a rouge's life. snow is the only one left from her little family, both parents and all eight siblings are now gone. had her parents known what was going to happen and how many kits they were going to have, maybe they would have thought differently about staying rouges. maybe they would have joined a clan and things would have been better. maybe things would have still ended up here. all alone in a rabbit hole starving and soaked to the bone. the pale kitten counts herself lucky to have found the little burrow, otherwise she'd still be out in the cold rain that doesn't seem to ever end or let up. was the sky crying for her lost family? snow wasn't sad anymore, she had been a week ago when her last sibling died from a bad cough that only got worse, but not now. she's cried out all her tears and has grown numb to the pain of loss and loneliness. her mother had died half a moon phase ago or even a full one, she doesn't remember anymore. all she knows is she's alone and if she doesn't eat soon she'll likely join her family in the stars. after snow had found the rabbit warren, she curled up and went to sleep for a while since there's not much else to do and she was low on energy from lack of food.

"How about I test your knowledge instead Nettlepaw? You have been doing a lot this past moon and what better way to test that than to show your friend and I where different herbs are?" Copperlily had an inquisitive gleam in her eye, as if expecting the tabby apprentice to give a rebuttal to her offer, but the medicine cat knew the apprentice and her ways. The elder cat would win whether the apprentices liked it or not. She also knew that Dewpelt wouldn't mind if she took Nightpaw along. The young warrior could probably use a break from the constant energy. "If you do well, maybe I will teach you the things to stay away from..." The bait was set. Copperlily had been around young cats enough to know that they had a constant longing to find things that were forbidden, whether it was territory, code breaking, or relationships. This could satisfy that want without any real dangers- unless one of them were mouse-brained enough to try and eat something bad.

Nodding in agreement, Dewpelt waited for Creamflower and Lavenderflight to finish. "Makes sense on wanting to wait. I don't see how having names set in stone would be easy if you don't even know your kits beforehand." she added on. Unlike Lavenderflight, she hadn't noticed what Aspenblaze said about naming his own kits before. All she knew was that he had come from another clan for reasons of his own, and no one really bothered him about it after he was deemed trustworthy. Well as trustworthy as he can be. As the others continued the conversation, she continued to smooth down her fur with her tongue, catching any bits of dust from going on patrol earlier. Her fur was naturally shiny and soft, almost like a kittypet, and she found she liked to keep it that way.

He listened at watched the golden she-cat "well I guess so, but we need to keep living even if the things are what they are, we don't want the rogues and others to think they win, because we are too scared to move on..." he said wondering his own words "anyway those outsiders can't haunt us forever...they will only waste their own life to doing so" he said sighing. His eyes starring toward the camp clearing "it's alright, I don't have anything better to do anyway, I guess I need to stay in camp for now on" he said.

She left the two other cats behind and disappeared to the tighter part of the forest, sniffing and listening to the air for any prays or other dangers. So far she didn't find anything wrong so she continued her way deeper, toward the small stream, lowering down to drink, still carefully listening to the forest around her.
