blackpaw groaned, not at all happy to be awake. oh, how she wished she could simply wile the day away. of course, that wasn't likely to happen any time soon. rolling over on her back, the black apprentice stared at the ceiling of the den in which she slept for a moment before she turned to the side, pale grey eyes catching sight as her fellow apprentice breezepaw ducked out the entrance. glowering, she gave a huff and stood to follow him out. now, blackpaw isn't a cheery, morning type in any way, shape, or form. and being such a grouchy riser, the female generally waited until midday to finally leave the confines of the apprentice den. but, unfortunately, she'd been given a new mentor after her old one died, and so she had no choice but to awaken with breezepaw to begin their duties for the day and she could only hope that these duties would include some type of battle training.

ghostlight was yawning as she made her way out of the warriors den, not at all surprised to see that her brother, kestrelflight was already out and about. shaking her head to clear away the last of her clinging sleepiness, the petite white she-cat padded over to the fresh-kill pile, nodding in polite greeting to her brother and their leader, whitestar. ghostlight sighed as she picked out a mouse, her favorite prey which she had shared numerous times with willowleaf. she still mourned the loss of her friend, who whitestar said was killed by some loner. in truth, ghostlight couldn't believe that she was gone, and thus-far the clan was without a deputy. then again, the gathering was in three days time, and she had to wonder if whitestar would make the announcement there instead of beforehand.

kestrelflight had awoken early, as was usual, and had been ever so careful as he padded over and around his sister. speaking of which, the she-cat had finally seemed to awake and he sent her a slight smile as she walked by him. he himself, well, he was sitting near whitestar, who happened to be both his friend and leader.

Redstar looked over in curiosity as Dewdrop entered the Cave. When did she leave camp? He followed her with his eyes, watching her trot into her den. Deciding she might be lonely, he followed. Walking at a casual pace, he found himself smiling as he entered the den. He watched her put some cobwebs on a little shelf. Her whole den was organized, herbs sorted into neat little piles. A deep pool lapped in the center of the den. Comfy nests were pushed to one side. He looked around some more before meowing, "It looks really amazing in here. I'm always surprised, though I've been here hundreds of times. Good morning." His eyes glimmered as he sat down, his tail curling over his paws, the black tip flicking. He watched her turn. He thought about how sweet and pretty she was before scolding himself. Medicine cat, Redstar...Medicine cat. Trying to hide his thoughts, he smiled again, blinking happily.

Marblefur dropped some prey from the Hunting Cave onto the pile. She saw Redstar drinking from the pool and gave him a nod. She then padded into the nursery to visit the newest kits. She stayed there for a few minutes before going to the training rocks. She stared at the rocks, thinking of the apprentices' training games; the young cats would 'fight' while jumping from rock to rock. If a cat fell from the rock, or slipped at all, they lost. Marblefur remembered training like that. She almost always slipped. At least she wasn't completely useless; the camp was always clean, the nests always cozy. Even though that was an apprentice job, she didn't mind.

SilverWood was already awake; he always got up early. His mother always used to say The sooner you wake, the sooner you play! He smiled. His mother always knew how to get him up. He looked over to see one apprentice, and a couple warriors. Slow-tails. He grabbed a small mouse to eat; he never ate much in the morning. He wondered what he should do first; hunt, join patrols?

Fiercepaw woke with a little growl. Let's just say her dreams weren't pleasant. She turned in her nest, wishing she could sleep. She knew it was time to get up, but wanted to rest more. She sighed, finally getting up. She stretched, letting her sharp claws gouge the den floor. She yawned, showing her flashing white teeth. Odd thing was, she did this on purpose. She always showed her claws and fangs, wanting to appear threatening. That way, no cat would mess with her. Shaking out her dark pelt, she padded out. The sun was blinding, as usual.

Whitestar looked over from his day dream almost jumping to see two warriors, brother and sisters one sitting next to him. "Oh why Hello Ghostlight and Kestrelflight." he said a little giggle in his voice mostly because he had just been stupidly startled and rather embarrassed. A feeling Whitestar hasn't felt in ages. He saw young Ghostlight fetch herself a morning meal and Whitestar became rather hungry himself but would prefer just to wait till later. "Did you sleep well?" he asked speaking to whoever would answer his head lifting up to the trees looking at the birds fly by and squirrels jump from branch to branch like an insane elder but younger. He yawned and shook his head wishing he would yawn and jump in front of his clan cats. but Whitestar always did odd stuff when around other cats. At least that was odd too him and he didn't like it what so ever.

Dewdrop reached her paw into a shelf and pulling out some borage leaves when a voice spoke and she used all of her energy not to jump. The only sign was a little flick of her tail moving from her right side wrapped around her paws to the left straight out. She set the herbs down wondering if her warrior instincts were disappearing. maybe she needed to practice a little because she should have heard those footsteps. She turned around smiling at Redstar. trying not to seem ever so happy that someone was in the den and eve better complementing her organization. She walked back behind the shelf and banged against something then pulled out a finch. Small but a good meal very rare to find in RockClan territory. She was searching for herbs and it was eating the berries which she doesn't see so often and decided to catch it and store it in a hole in the den and cover it up with sap and dirt so it hardened and inside the bird was fresh. She dipped it in the pool as she passed and set it in Redstar paws. "Thank you Redstar. I change it almost every moon i can never get a good organization. Only If I could move the pool." she said smiling. "I decided to put the warriors den on the right so they can see the entrance. Better guard than a kit could do. so the apprentice are on the left and kits i moved next to my den but opposite away from the shelf" she said smiling hoping she wasn't boring him. "How was your morning?"

[a s h e s.]

★ʳᵉᵈˢᵗᵃʳ
Redstar listened intently, noticing how happy she seemed with her den. Redstar wondered if she ever got bored. Always sitting alone in the den. Maybe that's why she went out so early. He waited until she was finished before replying, "Well, I think your den always looks nice." He realized that might have been a bit too friendly. Racking his brain, he tried to change the subject. "So, er, have you heard anything from StarClan at all? The Clan is doing well, which usually doesn't last very long." He purred, though now he really was curious. There was always something going on, right? Was MapleClan weak, or were they planning soemthing. Then again, maybe they were just...not up to anything? Doing normally? Hopefully that was the case.

Dewdrop smiled looking down at the prey she gave him wondering if he would eat it. She yawned and flicked her tail walking to the back for a second telling him to hold on and grabbed the borage she meant to grab earlier and padded back getting work done while the chatted. "No I haven't gotten any news from Starclan actually. It does seem kind of quiet right? Is it just me or is everyone feeling it. I've even seen warriors not assigned on duty just feeling the need to guard from the den or check on the queens in the nursery. Odd huh? Do you feel it too? Maybe that is a sigh from Starclan." she said throwing darker borage which was bad in a little pile and taking the good stuff and dumping it in water. She threw it in and jumped when the water stung her. She yelped feeling as if fire was on her paws and jumped back as the water randomly splashed again hitting her face. "My eyes! All I see is white! I can't see!" she spat rubbing her head on her shoulder. "its hot! Like fire!" she yelped running around the puddle knowing her den and ran to the back. "Redstar where's the Celandine? It's yellow and thin." she said her eyes tight. She couldn't wash her eyes out the water was hot. She ran bay holding a pile of random herbs. "Any in there?" she asked dropping them and turning to run back but tripping in the water. She yelled... but it was cold. the water was cold. She hissed with frustration and grabbed the water splashing it in her eyes and opening them. Was she crazy? "It was hot now it's cold!" she looked over at him knowing her eyes must be red then looked down at her paws. they were red, and swollen. Not bad it would heal within the day but that mark shows that the water really was hot. "There you go Redstar. Starclan made you walk into this den. you got what you wanted I think. A prophecy."

Redstar bent down to eat the finch. He wondered how she'd caught one. They were rare, since the cats hardly ever hunted above ground. It was so good, he finished quickly as she spoke. Nothing? Darn. As he was about to thank her and leave, suddenly she was yowling. He gasped. The pool was steaming, and she was searching frantically for Celandine. Redstar was slow with shock, but managed to start searching. He didn't see the herb in the pile she gave him. Before he could call for help, he saw her stop. She slowly opened her eyes. They were red, like her paws. Like they'd been splashed with boiling water. He stared open-muzzled. What?! Realizing he hadn't spoken at all, he swallowed hard. "Wow, I'm sorry then. It seems I may have caused you a painful prophecy. Let me look at your eyes." He padded forward, peering at her to check for any major damage. His nose almost touched hers, but he was too focused checking on her to think about it. Her eyes were still red, but not too bad. She must have pulled away quickly enough to avoid most of the splash. He stepped back again. "Is there anything we can do for your paws? They must sting." He looked at her with concern, and hoped it looked like normal worry. Just a leader caring for his Clanmate. Nothing more...

She lifted her eyelids, one more night without her muscles hurting, her life after a rogue was better than before. She was well fed and warm always found her, even when wind threatened to knock over the den But one thing that struck out most was the ability to sleep without haunting memories of her past life. She also had to admit, her overall look had improved. Her pelt was sleek and did not jerk out like it was rough, she looked considerably better than before. As she moved one quick paw after the other, she wondered what had happened to her sister, who she knew survived their cold past. But when Ghostlight, Kestrelflight and Whitestar faded into sight, she forgot about her past once more. Her heart sank suddenly like a hawk twirling down after its prey, the sight of the clan-born warriors reminded her of the passed deputy, Willowleaf. A loner had slaughtered her, reported Whitestar, they had mourned quickly before she was dragged off in the dirt, towards her final resting place, it was sad, but rogues never mourned. She swiftly trotted to the warriors, smiling while straining her hearing, being deaf was not the best. 'Would you like me to hunt with someone Whitestar?' She purred, nodding towards her fellow clan-mates. She was trying her best for the deputy part, but she doubted a former rogue would get it.

Breezepaw had been taken a little bit by surprise when he suddenly felt the tail at his stomach. He scrambled to his paws, but visibly relaxed when he saw it was only his mentor. His ears flattened against his head with the discontent of being disturbed, only to perk up again at the mention of food. Battle training, hunting; it didn't matter to him. But if hunting meant he got to eat sooner, then he was all for it. The apprentice gave a short nod in agreement, before his eyes slid over the the den where Blackpaw was emerging. He must've woken her up. Woops. Looking back at Bluejay, he inclined his head towards the other apprentice, as if to silently ask if she should join them.

Having been on the dawn patrol, Dustfur was only returning to camp now. He loved getting out in the morning and being able to see the sun rise. It was always beautiful; and, of course, was always better when there weren't conflicts on the border. As the tom made his way through the entrance, he noticed his apprentice waking up and coming out of the den for her morning duties. "Good morning, Fiercepaw," he greeted as he approached. It was strange to think that such a bold apprentice had been matched with the rather small and awkward warrior. "Did you sleep well?"

[ Sorry for not replying earlier, I needed sleep. :B I won't be on later today until 8 pm CST--dumb work. ]

blackpaw's tail twitch with something akin to amusement as she watched bluejay startle breezepaw. rolling her eyes to the roof of the den, she shook her head and continued on her silent way to her own mentor who had just dropped some prey on the fresh-kill pile. scrunching her nose, she wondered what her mentor was doing. shouldn't they be training already? then again, marblefur seemed to prefer cleaning out the camp and dens, something that apprentices usually did. ha. if blackpaw was a warrior, she'd be out of this rock cave all the time. she hated cleaning out the dens and making sure everyone was nice and fed. unless they had four broken legs they could feed themselves, at least, that's what this she-cat thought. with a disgusted huff, the apprentice swiftly changed course, turning just in time to see breezepaw nodding in her direction. hmm maybe she could get bluejay to take her on some battle training? with this single thought in mind, blackpaw made her way to the duo, stopping to sit a couple of mouse-lengths away to await what bluejay would say.

ghostlight blinked, giving a small nod in reply to whitestars question before going back to her small meal. the small she-cat's ears perked slightly when kitetail padded over, a strained look in her eyes. oh, yes, she was deaf. it wasn't the usual for a warrior to be deaf, but she supposed if kitetail could manage than there was no harm in it. ghostlight chuckled silently, thinking about the time she had almost become a medicine cat apprentice, because she was thought to have gone mute. well, she had a voice alright, she just didn't use it much. after all, if one didn't have something important to say, why say anything at all? ghostlight had found that by not talking, she was listened to when she did choose to speak, and that was definitely something she was grateful of. overhearing kitetail's question, the white she-cat scarfed down the rest of her meal and padded closer to the group, sitting with her side brushing kestrelflight's. "oh, kitetail, i could go with you if you'd like?" she mewed, making sure she enunciated her words carefully so the deaf warrior wouldn't have to strain so hard to hear.

kestrelflight looked up at whitestar's question, "ah, yes thank you." he said, giving a gruff nod in reply. then, the tom's odd hazel eyes turned back to his sister, watching her like a hawk. the tom's head turned when kitetail approached, and he gave a small smile. wow, wasn't she something? startled by his own thoughts, the brown and white tabby coughed awkwardly, turning away to look at... something else. kestrelflight's head cocked to the side as his sister moved to sit beside him, speaking up which was a rare thing indeed. she wanted to go hunting? well, he could take her. it was his duty to watch over her after all. but then again, what if she didn't want him to? grumbling under his breath, kestrelflight stared at her for a moment before turning away to look back at whitestar and kitetail.

Whitestar lifted his ears his slanted tiered eyes widening when the entrance of another cat came. Looks like Whitestar's worry for a too quiet day was slaughtered now. No need to worry. He should have known it was just a quiet morning. He smiled nodding his head to our new comer, kitetail. It makes him wonder if everyone's talking to him just to get a head start on becoming a deputy. he's supposed to assign one at Dusk today so they can sit vigil all night. Hopefully they were really just trying to talk. "Good Morning Kitetail. I am thinking of just assigning a hunting patrol. The camps been so calm so I was thinking of joining the patrol to see how things are going. So since you offered Kitetail you go ahead and lead the patrol and bring along any warrior you wish. the more food the better." he said smiling. He still doesn't like ordering cats around its odd he always wonders if they don't want to do what he ordered but being able to lead a patrol was good right? She would be happy? Should he assign Kestrelflight. Was Whitestar really debating over hunting patrol or the deputy? The clan would surely hate him for making a rouge a deputy or at least not all would like. Ghostlfight was a very good cat too. He would need to watch all. it soon came to his head that all 3 runner ups for deputy were sitting right in front of him.
