Mallowpath rose to his paws as he saw Rimestar coming, padding up to meet her at the cave entrance. "I found another apprentice while I was out," she announced without prelude. "And I was gracious enough to allow them to join the clan."
The deputy smiled lightly. "That's always good news," he started to mew, but faltered when a small brown tabby bounded into the cave, peering up at him with wide blue eyes. "Hi there! What's your name?" Mallowpath asked the apprentice, crouching down so that he was at eye level with the little tom.
"Mallowpath..." Rimestar said slowly. "That's not the cat I found on a patrol." Mallowpath looked up in his surprise to see that the leader had been in the middle of herding another young cat into the cave. This cat was also a brown tabby, but was a she-cat and slightly larger than the tom. "I know that this is Finchpaw," Rimestar mewed, motioning to the she-cat, "but who are you?" she asked the tom.
"I'm Hazelpaw," he mewed proudly. "I come from Blueclan, but it disbanded, or something, so now I need a new home."
Rimestar sighed. She knew that she was supposed to feel compassionate for these cats whose clans had dissolved, but instead she was skeptical of their intent. Still, she would never turn away a cat in need of a home — Mallowpath would never allow her. "You can join Verglasclan," she decided. Hazelpaw's face lit up, and even Rimestar had to admit that his smile was contagious.
"Who's gonna be my mentor?" he asked.
"And what about me?" Finchpaw piped in, pushing to stand in front of Hazelpaw.
"If you would just wait one minute, you would find out," Rimestar mewed irritatedly before calling Egretpool and Asterflame over for the apprentices' ceremony.
────────────────────
After the ceremony was complete, Palepaw bounded over to Mallowpath. "Can we go train now? Pleeeeaaaase?" he begged impatiently. The deputy was about to oblige when Rimestar firmly shook her head.
"Not today, Palepaw. You'll be hunting with Sparkfur and Birdbrook," she told him. "Mallowpath, I was hoping that you might want to go on a walk today, just you and me. You don't mind, do you?" Rimestar asked the deputy.
The apprentice initially was disappointed, but his expression quickly turned to excitement at the thought of showing off his new skills. Palepaw started to pad over to Birdbrook and Sparkfur, but found that they were engaged in a murmured conversation. He thought at first to interrupt them, but quickly changed his mind. Instead, he slipped inside the apprentice den where he found Hazelpaw and Finchpaw. "Do either of you want to do something fun?" he mewed vaguely. Hazelpaw gave him a curious look, while Finchpaw only glanced at him with skepticism in her eyes.
Meanwhile, Mallowpath was stammering a response to Rimestar's offer. "No," he said quickly. "I mean, um, no, I don't mind. Not no, I don't want to go. I do want to go, so, um..." Mallowpath cleared his throat awkwardly, his eyes trained on the cave floor.
Rimestar smiled at the tom's flustered words. "Follow me," she said smoothly, leading Mallowpath from the cave.
The two cats walked along a cliff that stretched over the forest, but although it was a far drop, they felt no fear. "Isn't it a beautiful view?" Rimestar mewed thoughtfully — and it was. Miles and miles of forest stretched out in front of them, white and glittering in the snow. The leader turned away suddenly to face her deputy. "Mallowpath," she began softly. "I never thought that I could feel this way about anyone. As I've grown to know you more and more, I've noticed that the way I feel around you... I've never felt that with anyone else, and I don't think I ever will." She paused, and a moment of silence passed between them. Mallowpath held his breath, waiting. "Will you be my mate?" Rimestar mewed at last.
An ecstatic smile broke across Mallowpath's face. "I've been waiting for this moment since I met you," he purred. Rimestar couldn't help but smile back at him. "Of course I'll be your mate."
The sound of muffled snickering snapped the leader and deputy from their dreamlike trance. "Who's there?" Rimestar called. The snickering fell silent as she spoked a flash of brown fur disappearing behind a large bush. Without hesitation, the leader stormed over to the bush to see three giggling apprentices ducking behind it. Mallowpath joined Rimestar by his side, shaking his head disdainfully at the young cats. "What are you doing here?" the she-cat demanded. "Finchpaw, Hazelpaw, where are your mentors? And Palepaw, didn't I tell you to go hunting with Sparkfur and Birdbrook?"
"It was Palepaw's idea. You can't blame me for that," Finchpaw argued.
"You're older than Palepaw and Hazelpaw, Finchpaw. You should have at least attempted to dissuade them," Mallowpath mewed sternly. "But at the same time, you all are responsible for your own actions."
"That's so not fair!" Finchpaw argued. "I'm not going to be their mother! And you're sending two completely different messages!"
Mallowpath was at a loss for words. Luckily, Hazelpaw spoke before he had to. "I didn't even want to go. Palepaw and Finchpaw dragged me along."
"Oh, come on, Hazelpaw," Finchpaw scoffed. "We both know that's a lie. You were practically walking on Palepaw's heels."
"You've been awfully quiet, Palepaw," Rimestar noted. "What do you have to say for yourself?"
Palepaw shrugged nonchalantly. "I was bored," he said simply.
"Well 'bored' isn't going to cut it. Let's get all of you back to camp. Now," Mallowpath ordered as he began to herd the apprentices back home. "I'm sorry about how this turned out," he whispered to Rimestar as they walked.
"Don't worry too much about it. It was their mouse-brained decision, not yours. They're just lucky none of them is my apprentice," Rimestar murmured in reply, giving the deputy the faintest hint of a smile.
