Mintleaf: "Really? That's great. Now that we can catch a lot of prey here we won't have to hear Pinestorm's whining about his 'scrawny mice'!"
Goldstar: "Good Morning, Moondust."
Pinestorm: (Says Bitterly) "Up later than usual I see.." (Turns to Goldstar) "You can have the rest of my hare. Wavepelt wanted you to have it anyway."
Moondust: (Glances confused at Pinestorm and turns to Goldstar) "Good Morning Goldstar. How has your Morning been so far?"
Goldstar: "It's been good." (Glances at Pinestorm) "Don't worry about him. He's probably just mad that you're deputy."
Moondust: (Shrugs) "Seems like a logical reason. Better me than him." (Shoots a heated glance at Pinestorm)
Pinestorm: (Rolls his eyes) "I just think you could do better, Moondust." (Ignores Moondust, looks at Goldstar) "I just want what's better for the clan like a deputy who reflects your phenomenal leadership skills."
Goldstar: (Raises Voice) "I think you should learn to respect my choices. Even if I wanted to pick you, you haven't met the criteria yet! Like taking over the responsibility of training an apprentice! Moondust was the best choice!"
Pinestorm: "Because you've been neglecting me! It's been a while since you've sent me on a patrol and leave alone that! At this rate I'll probably be an elder before I get any apprentice!"

Moondust: (Twitches tail and lays nose on Goldstar's shoulder in comfort)
Goldstar: (Forces fur flat) "Fine. Brownpaw has yet to be mentored and as for the patrols you must've missed them."
Moondust: (Smirks)
Pinestorm: "Missed patrols?" (Hisses) "How could I miss patrols when I wake up before Moondust everyday?!" (Scowls and glares hatefully at Moondust)
Goldstar: "You do know we assign patrols near the pond, right? Didn't your mentor tell you?"
Moondust: "And you do know that we gather them at noon, right?"
Pinestorm: (Frowns and lashes tail) "Even then. You never assign me to them and I'm stuck in camp until I go out to hunt independently."
Page 6
Moondust: (Politely) "Maybe you should ask about when we go next time."
Pinestorm: (Lashes tail and huffs) "Fine. When is the next patrol?"
Goldstar: (Turns to Moondust) "Moondust?"
Moondust: "A little after noon."
Pinestorm: (Flicks ear) "Fine. Brownpaw and I will be there."
Moondust: "Sounds like a plan." (Turns away)
Pinestorm: (Narrows eyes and watches Moondust) "Moondust, that's the smallest vole I've ever seen. Wavepelt caught this hate for me and I've barely touched it. You can have it."
Page 7
Moondust: "If Wavepelt caught it, then shouldn't you be sharing it with him? Hmm?" (Finishes vole and narrows eyes suspiciously at Pinestorm)
Pinestorm: "I would share it with him if he was actually present here, he's hunting. It's not like I can drag him back here to share." (Huffs) "Besides, I was just trying to be generous. No need to get hostile."
Moondust: (Sighs) "Alright. What do exactly do you want? If you're being nice to me all of a sudden that means you want something. Speak up."
Pinestorm: "I want nothing more than praise and admiration for my clan mates." (Waves tail) "Ever think that I am just trying to start fresh?"
Moondust: "Well, I suppose you are now. My apologies, I'm just not used to this 'new you'." (Says uneasily)
Pinestorm: "All is forgiven. This perfectly good prey shouldn't be wasted. I think my clan mates deserve to eat it instead of me."
Moondust: "I guess I'll eat it then." (Starts eating, glances up at Pinestorm every once in a while)
Pinestorm: "I know I'm a good looking cat and all but that doesn't mean keep looking at me as you eat. It's kind of creepy, you know?" (Says jokingly)
Moondust: (Rolls eyes and finishes eating; gets up and licks paws) "Would you like me to go hunting as an apology?"
(Camera switches to Snaketail and Wavepelt)
Snaketail: "Oh yeah. I forgot all about that cat and his obnoxious whines about food." (Chuckles)
Wavepelt: (Gets up and motions for them to follow)
Snaketail: (Follows Wavepelt) "You coming, Mintleaf?" (Purrs and runs to catch up with Wavepelt)
Page 8
Mintleaf: "Of course, I wouldn't miss it." (Follows Wavepelt and Snaketail)
(Camera switches to Pinestorm and Moondust)
Pinestorm: (Stretches) "Sure. Where do you have in mind?"
(Camera switches to Bloodmuzzle)
Bloodmuzzle: (Yawns and rolls in nest; hisses as she rolls on a thorn) "Youch! Thorns in my nest?! What's next, splinters down my throat?!" (Hissed angrily and curls up)
(Camera switches to Blackclaw and Moonpaw)
Blackclaw: "Hi Moonpaw."
(Camera switches to Bloodmuzzle)
Bloodmuzzle: (Drags herself out of nest into clearing)
(Camera switches to Blackclaw and Moonpaw)
Moonpaw: "Hi Blackclaw." (Rises) "How are you?"
Blackclaw: "I'm good."
Moonpaw: "That's good." (Flicks tail)
Page 9
Blackclaw: "Do you want to go hunting or do some battle training?"
Moonpaw: "Hunting sounds nice." (Stretches; bones crack unusually loud)
(Camera changes to Snaketail, Wavepelt, and Mintleaf)
Snaketail: (Walks side by side with Mintleaf; Clears throat) "How much of my brother's sign language do you know about? I could help you with some of the signs if you want."
Wavepelt: (Sighs softly to keep himself alert)
Mintleaf: "Well, I know basics. Like simple questions, yes or no, and greetings. But I can't say I'm as great as you when it comes to keeping conversation." (Glances at Wavepelt)
(Camera switches to Blackclaw)
Blackclaw: "Alright then." (Points to an area) "Go try over there."
(Camera switches to Bloodmuzzle)
Bloodmuzzle: (Pads over to Moonpelt) "Hey Moonpelt. Want to come hunting? We should bring another cat in case... what about Pumpkinfur? You should go ask her."
Page 10
Moonpelt: "Sure." (Flexes claws in the dust)
Bloodmuzzle: (Pads towards Pumpkinfur) "Hey Pumpkinfur! Would you like to come hunting with Moonpelt and I?"
Pumpkinfur: (Happily) "I would love to!" (Purrs) "I know a good place or two to catch plenty of prey!"
Bloodmuzzle: "Great! Let's go then! Pumpkinfur, do you mind leading?"
Moonpelt: (Waits near entrance of the camp)
(Camera switches momentarily to Snowfeather)
Snowfeather: (Lays down in nursery and lets out a screech as something pricks her belly)
(Camera switches back to Bloodmuzzle)
Bloodmuzzle: (Pricks ears) "Maybe we should go... like now!" (Bolts out of camp)
Pumpkinfur: (Runs after Bloodmuzzle) "Who was that?! Why are we running away?!" (Alarmed expression)
(Camera switches to Snowfeather)
Mouseheart: (Enters nursery) "Snowfeather! Oh dear... are you alright?" (Questions her worriedly)
Snowfeather: (Looks at Mouseheart) "No! I am not alright! I need a stick, now!" (Yells painfully)
Mouseheart: (Nods and dashes out of the nursery, panicked; returns moment later with a stick in her jaws; gives to Snowfeather) "I-I'll go find S-Snaketail and Mintleaf! They'll know what to do! I can't possibly to this by myself!"
