Weather Report
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Current Season: Greenleaf
The snow are melting and the world is beginning to come to life. Kittings will be easier now, bringing fresh new life to the clans. Beware the water however, as the melting snows may cause rivers to rise and flooding is a very real danger this time of year.

indentA solemn silence spread through all of PineClan as every cat paid their respects to the departed warrior who laid in the middle of the clearing. Shrikeface's gray-and-white fur had been washed clean of the blood that dirtied it, and whatever living petals and ferns the Clan could find covered his body so that he wouldn't smell of death. Soft utterings were mewed in his ears as if perhaps their words could reach him in StarClan if they spoke this way, all of them kind and thanking him for all his moons of service.
indentHis own family approached him once everyone else had finished, Magpiewhisker along with his mate and kit went first. Fawnfur laid her tail on Acornclaw's back as the young cat openly wept at the sight of her grandfather's body, Magpiewhisker's eyes watered as well, though he knew he had to be strong for his family's sake. "Thank you," He started, voice wavering. "you were the best father any cat could wish for, I'll miss you so much." He leaned down to touch the tip of Shrikeface's ear with his nose, muttering how it should have been him who died instead, but far too quiet for either Fawnfur or Acornclaw to hear.
indentAspenheart and Rosefur went up next after the three others had backed away, the ginger molly had her thick tail twined with the tabby tom's in a gesture of comfort. Her face was grave as she took in the sight of her dearest friend's hurt profile. It was one she was well acquainted with; she lost her parents too, after all. Aspenheart's paws were shaking, a choked cry leaving his throat before he whipped away from the body of his father and headed straight for the warriors' den. Rosefur trailed after him before coming to a stop, understanding it was probably better for him to be alone for the time being.
indentSkunknose along her and Shrikeface's youngest daughters trailed behind the gray-and-white molly. Asterpaw had her face buried in Lavenderpaw's neck fur as sobs wracked her body, but Lavenderpaw was quiet, a faraway look in her eye as she stared down at the sleeping body of her father. Skunknose laid herself down beside her mate, head resting on her paws as she stared helplessly at his serene face. He looked like he was doing nothing more than sleep, and she desperately wished that he would wake up again. "You are the only one I could ever love," She whispered to him sorrowfully, "you've made me happier than I thought possible; my heart is, and always will be, yours. Goodbye, Shrikeface. I love you."
indentOnce the three mollies mustered up the will to separate themselves from him, Mintstar was expected to go next. Not only because Shrikeface was her littermate, but it was one of her duties as a leader to oversee all vigils of the dead. The gray-and-white molly slowly rose to her paws, a haunted look in her hazel eyes as she stared ahead of her, and every paw step she took made her feel as if she was walking underwater. My brother! She screamed as she sat in front of his body, a nearly inaudible whimper left her throat as she took in just how small he seemed now that his spirit was gone.
indentEvery pitiful glance her Clan sent her way burned holes in her heart, all she wanted to do was hide in her den and never come out. I'm a failure to my Clan! She thought as her eyes watered up. What good am I?! She ruminated as her head hung low. I couldn't even protect my brother! She thought as she collapsed to her paws, for the first time in her eight lives, not caring about how she presented herself in front of PineClan. She just wanted to be Mintclaw again, without the worry of having so many cats look to her for guidance and support.
indent"I'm sorry!" She sobbed into his fur, wailing more apologies and hoping that he could hear them among StarClan. Mintstar had so much to atone for; it was no wonder he wound up hating her. She flinched as she felt a feathery tail stroke her back, looking up to see Skunknose and her own tear-filled eyes. "Don't don't this, Mintstar," She pleaded, her voice shaking. "he wouldn't want to see you like this, I know he wouldn't." She crouched down to her level, gently nosing Mintstar up to her paws, and placed her muzzle on top of Mintstar's head. "Don't let him go into StarClan knowing you're scared," She muttered softly. "Just remember him as the proud warrior we all knew him as."
indentMintstar said nothing as she let Skunknose guide her into her den. She briefly gazed at the faces of her Clanmates, her stare lingering on Duckfoot's. Her mate stared back with a look of understanding, his sister, Anthiese, died four moons ago. Is this anything like how you felt? She pondered before entering her den underneath the roots of the Great Oak. Skunknose helped her settle down and lay beside her, both the mollies quieter than stone.
indentThey exchanged one last look at each other before bursting into tears, and while the two were grieving together, they could have never felt more alone.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
indentThe day came and went, Shrikeface's body no longer laid in the clearing and the rest of PineClan carried on with their daily routine. Aside from the absence of Mintstar and Skunknose, who still stayed inside the former's den, Lavenderpaw was almost tempted to say that it was yet another passing day. Larkclaw teased his mate about her ever-growing belly, Cottonbush was still vying for Laurelcloud's attention, Egrettail was stealing looks when Firestream wasn't looking, and every single one of the kits was enjoying the freshly fallen snow. But the gray molly had to face reality, the lingering scent of blood in the air, and the despair she felt in the pit of her belly.
indentHer father was dead. And she would never see him again.
indentShe tried her hardest to convince herself he died honorably by defending his family. But it was hard when deep inside, she knew it was an avoidable death. Lavenderpaw may have respected her aunt, but she didn't like how the leader hadn't done much about the invasive rogues aside from sending fruitless patrols to try and find out where they lived. She hated to think that it would take the death of her father to do something more. It's not like she can do much now, She thought sadly, casting another long glance at Mintstar's den.
indentShe couldn't criticize her for not leaving her den since dawn, Lavenderpaw hadn't left the apprentices' den all day either, both out of grief and because she didn't want to walk out into the clearing only to realize her father wouldn't be there. His yellow eyes would no longer be shining in warmth and pride as he would ask her how she was faring with her training, and his mews about how proud he was of his daughters would no longer be heard. Am I going to miss him at every turn?
indent"Lavenderpaw? Can I come in?" Sorrelpaw mewed; Lavenderpaw was quiet. She didn't even have the energy to talk. The tabby tom stepped in gingerly; her throat tightened seeing the sympathy in his eyes. She valued her pride and hated to look weak, though there was no use hiding her sorrow from her denmate. Sorrelpaw settled himself in the nest in front of her, tucking his forepaws under himself. "We're going to see Maplepaw off for her warrior assessment," He started, mustering a smile. "and then we're going to welcome the four cats the patrols found."
indentLavenderpaw's ears twitched in acknowledgment, swallowing down her surprise at the mention of four new Clan members. Two from QuartzClan, two from HyenaClan. She had been so focused on her grieving for Shrikeface she had forgotten that her Clan had found four new refugees to take in. 'There seems to be a surplus of those,' she thought. Remembering how she and father would talk about their concerns about the cats Mintstar often took into her Clan; they agreed they had the advantage of taking in new cats to strengthen their numbers, but that they also could've done that on their own.
indentthe rest is a wip !!

Kits due: n/a » Previous Post
The clan couldn't have been happier, even with the relentless rain that had pummeled them. There were two new additions to the clan: Larkkit and Spiderkit. They were odd little ones. Larkkit was noticeably smaller than her sibling and Spiderkit had a few toes more than he should have. There was curiosity from the other cats about the new arrivals, but Ashfeather kept them at bay with her sharp tongue, even sharper now in defense of her kits. Jayfrost was the only one that could get near the family without fear. Wolfstar was overjoyed at the status of his clan and went on keeping them safe. However, there was one cat who had been even more distracted by the kits then anyone else.
Lynxclaw couldn't help it. Everytime he saw the kits, he thought of Honeygaze and the future they could never have. It burned him up to know that he was unable to do anything with his love. Honeygaze felt the same way. "They are getting stronger every day." She muttered to him. They were laying near the river, Lynxclaw cradling her back and smoothing down her ruffled fur. He hummed in response. Honeygaze closed her eyes and sighed, pinning down her ears. "I wish I could have them, Lynxclaw. I hate that I have this burden to take care of my clan-and I know how bad that sounds-but Starclan knows we deserve our own happiness.
She growled in frustration and Lynxclaw laid his head on her flank, purring softly in her ear. "I know, love. Believe me. I knew about your burden and I acted otherwise. In someway, it's my fault that you're in this situation."
"Don't say that. Even if you wouldn't have said anything, I probably still would've fallen for you."
"Probably?" Lynxclaw purred in amusement and Honeygaze chuckled, standing up and turning to face him, her striking eyes full of love. Lynxclaw's heart filled with courage and he jumped to his paws, so quickly that it startled the she-cat. "Lets have a family, Honeygaze. Let's have what they have."
Honeygaze blinked in surprise but she didn't protest. She cocked her head. "Are you asking me to be your mate, Lynxclaw?"
"I believe I am, Honeygaze."
"Of course I will, love. May Starclan look past the code and see our happiness."

Wolfstar couldn't remember the last time he had been to Moonstone. The path felt familiar to him, and he could almost feel the power guiding his paws. When he reached the stone, he pressed his nose to it and muttered his prayer: "Ancestors, Hollowclan has continued to grow and I could not thank you enough for keeping us safe. I am here to request a queen, since more kits means more strong warriors. Thank you."
Before he fell completely asleep, a sweet voice whispered quietly in his ear. "A threat grows in your clan, Wolfstar. Do not underestimate the weight of your request."

Vineyardclan Number of Cats: 6 Last Post: x Marmotstar felt her chest swell with pride as she looked over her small, but readily growing, clan. Her gaze fell on Silverfeather, their newest addition, and she knew that the queen's kits would be coming very soon. She watched as the clan's calico-furred medicine cat shuffled over to Silverfeather and pressed her ear to her flank. Marmotstar couldn't hear the she-cats' quiet interaction from her perch on her stone, but she figured there was nothing to be worried about with the way Turtleberry's tail flicked and whisker's twitched. Silverfeather looked awfully content, and Marmotstar was excited for the new kits. She loved kits.
Mudpaw's training was going swimmingly, and she was learning fast. Cleareyes was incredibly happy with the young cat's progress, especially in her battle and hunting training. It was clear that the pointed she-cat would be a wonderful warrior and do great things for their clan. He was proud. With a flick of his tail, he summoned his apprentice to his side and then dipped his head to Marmotstar to let her know that they were heading out for more training. There was not a moment to waste. There was plenty of time for Mudpaw to show off her skills and put them to real use after she received her warrior name. For now, he wanted to make sure that her moves were flawless... clean... terrifying to her enemies.
For Turtleberry, clan life presented a major shock. She was used to it being just her and Peachfrost traveling the foothills, hunting prey in the orchards, and serving their community as strays as healers. The two of them had been excellent at their job, patching up wounds from silly fights, curing kits' belly aches caused by tasting moldy fruits, and tending to their friends. Peachfrost, then Peach, had always wanted something more though, and Turtleberry, or Turtle, didn't want to let her go alone. She convinced her sister not to leave until they had trained someone to take their place, but as soon as that was complete, the sisters were off. Peachfrost immediately felt at home with Marmotstar, choosing to abandon her healing duties for a more exciting life trailing the leader and deputy across their new territory. Turtleberry, on the other hand, preferred to stick to her herbs. After all, Marmotstar said that they really needed her skills, and that she was a blessing from Starclan for coming when she did.

└──────────────┘ The cool night air ruffled the tom's short fur.
He sat calmly in front of a cave, that led deep into the ground.
He had heard tales all his life of the glowing rock, the
Moonstone, and now he had finally found it. Taking one last
look at the stars, his ancestors, as his mother told him, and
plunged into the darkness.

against the stone walls. Just when he thought the ground
couldn't slope downward anymore, the ground smoothed out.
He padded along silently until he came to a brilliant light.
He had found the Moonstone.
Eagerly, the tom padded forward, and touched his nose to the
cold surface of the white stone.
