He was planning on either, one, finding another cat or two, finding something to eat. My stomach is full, I should probably work on finding another cat. Then he would patrol the border on silent paws, a skill he found extremely useful. After glancing around for a moment longer, up at the sunshine that streamed and dappled the clearing through the willow leaves, he straightened out and began to trod towards the border. The stream, a few tail lengths away from the camp, babbled and spoke soothingly as he walked along it, careful to tread only on the narrow trail beside the edge. Finally he came to the scent marker and, not really knowing what else to do, began walking the line of it.

It had been a turbulent day, and everyone was glad to retire to their dens, Sagestar being the last to do so. ''Brambleheart, help me.'' he sighed, his nerves shaken and his years catching up to him. ''I'm just so tired.'' he croaked. ''And that's how I felt.'' came a quiet reply, from a blue and grey tomcat as he limped out of the elder's den. ''I used to be a deputy, but the leader was always absent, so I feel your pain, sonny.'' he smiled kindly at the brown leader, whom just dipped his head, unsure of what he was blabbing on about. Slatestorm settled beside Sagestar, and sighed loudly. ''I was always tired...and after the death of an apprentice, just one solitary apprentice that always cause trouble.'' Slatestorm rattled on. Sagestar, frustrated, snapped at the elder. ''Yes, but to the point of wanting to quit!?'' Slatestorm narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly. ''Yes...and I did...I left the clan, and when I left, I was forever branded a coward.'' he replied wistfully. ''It disbanded, of course.'' Slatestorm added, his eyes distant. ''You are a good leader...plus you've got Greynose.'' He reasoned. ''I just had myself, my leader was never there, your nothing like him!'' Slatestorm exclaimed. ''Don't quit, Sonny.'' and with those wise words ringing in his ears, Sagestar watched the elder trot back to his den. Perhaps it was worth respecting and listening to Slatestorm, Sagestar thought. he deserves a bit of company...well, Starclan, I rely on you once more. and with that Sagestar went to the moonstone. (Request for an elder)
starclan gave you an elder!

Katrione wrote:"He's adorable." Squirrelstar cooed to Mossvine. The two friends were laying together under the shade of Echo Rock, watching Hurricanekit as he pounced on a leaf and wrestled with it. Mossvine smiled softly, her gaze soft as she watched her son. "Mossvine? Is something wrong?" Mossvine looked at her friend and shook her head. "No.." Squirrelstar's head tilted to the side and she watched the white and calico queen, a curious look on her face. "You've been acting strange since Dapplewing died..." Squirrelstar mewed before looking at Hurricanekit then back at Mossvine. "Is he... he's not..." Mossvine's eyes widened and her gaze dropped to her paws. "Oh, Mossvine..."

And who are you?" she snarled, unhappy at being placed in this unfamiliar setting. Lichenstar sent a silent thank you to Starclan. "This is called the Moonpool. I'm Lichenstar. You're now a member of the newly formed Strikeclan." The white cat stayed silent, studying Lichenstar. The white and orange tom sighed. "I know you're assessing me, and we both know you wouldn't win. I'm friendly, okay?" The other cat was unconvinced. "You sound.. exasperated. Annoyed.Vexed. Agitated. But not friendly." Lichenstar had to figure out a way to make this cat listen! Perhaps a trade would work. "How about a deal? I'll try to teach you how to fish, and you'll listen to my story. And what was your name again?"
{Lichenstar + Cottonpaw hunting}
your cats caught a large fish and a shrew!

tree~racer wrote:"Brambletooth," Robinstar called, padding over to her deputy. "Hmm?" the ginger tabby turned swiftly. Birdkit, who had been attempting to stand upright and playfully batting at her father's face, dropped down to all four paws. "Good morning, Miss Robinstar," the little tabby squeaked politely. Robinstar gave her a warm smile before focusing her attention back to Brambletooth, who looked confused as to why she was here. "Patrols," she urged quietly. Brambletooth blinked and licked his chest fur, looking slightly embarrassed. "Yes. Of course." He paused. "Come on, Sparkkit." Birdkit's ginger brother sighed loudly and dropped from Brambletooth's back, where he had been "spying". The large red tabby smiled and playfully cuffed his ear before stepping forward to address the clan, instantly serious once more. "Cloudmask and Robinstar, patrol the borders, and maybe catch some prey while you're at it. Tanglestep, you work on Cricketpaw's training, and I'll train Cherrypaw." Cloudmask silently approached Robinstar, who mewed a greeting at the young warrior. Cricketpaw and Speckledpaw had been talking quietly, but Speckledpaw quickly ducked inside his den and Cricketpaw padded briskly up to Tanglestep, not wanting him to snap at her again. Luckily, Tanglestep couldn't think up anything to chastise her for, and they were quickly on their way. Cherrypaw reluctantly emerged from the apprentice den. She found Brambletooth's almost kit-like enthusiasm to be somewhat cloying, but she was stuck with him, at least until she was made a warrior. Brambletooth had learned to just deal with his apprentice's attitude, and was quiet as they left camp. This left just Sootpelt and Speckledpaw. "Let's get going, then," Sootpelt mewed, leading Speckledpaw from their den. "Where are we going?" the young apprentice inquired. "Herb collecting, of course. I was hoping I could also teach you a test you a bit on identifying certain herbs and their uses." Speckledpaw grinned, bouncing slightly as he trailed after his mentor.

"Cats of Starclan.." He began, dipping his head in respect to his ancestors. "I come to ask of you a warrior. We need cats that will hunt and fight loyally for our clan." He paused, and sighed heavily. "Thank you, and may this clan survive by your will." He trotted away, beginning the trek back home.
