When Honeystar and Owlflame returned from their patrol and training, respectively, the two cats made a dash for the nursery. Sparrowfrost was with Hazelpaw, who was tending to her and her nest, bringing in fresh moss and making sure that she was okay. The sun was quickly setting and a cold breeze filled the air. Honeystar's eyes clouded with concern, "The weather's taking a turn for the worse," the pale ginger leader murmured quietly before approaching her sister and nuzzling into her neck. 'Oh, dear StarClan. I can only pray that Sparrowfrost and her kits make it out safe,' She thought, before pulling away and turning around, "Hazelpaw, go get Minnowpaw and Cloudpaw and bring them to the apprentices' den. Bring some fresh-kill if you haven't already eaten and stay in the den. Owlflame, go get the new warrior and bring her into the warriors' den as well. We can't have her wandering about outside camp in this weather. She seems like a fine cat so we'll accept her in as a warrior anyway." The leader ordered. Hazelpaw nodded firmly before dashing out of the nursery and Owlflame twitched his tail before dashing over to touch his nose to Sparrowfrost's before following Hazelpaw out of the den. "If you need anything or you feel something is wrong please come and find me," Honeystar firmly said to Sparrowfrost before turning and walking back out of the den.

Honeystar was right. The air was icy and the winds howled that night. The next morning, a thick blanket of snow covered the entire camp. When the leader woke up and walked outside, she was surprised that the only cat outside was Stormrunner. His eyes were filled with worry, "Sparrowfrost is missing," he murmured, his eyes pleading Honeystar for help. "WHAT?!" Honeystar almost screamed. Stormrunner nearly jumped out of his skin, but just blinked at the leader, "She didn't come into the warriors' den last night." he continued, concern lacing his tone. Honeystar immediately relaxed at this, walking up and resting her head on the warrior's flank. "You nearly gave me a heart attack. Haven't you already heard, Stormrunner? Sparrowfrost is expecting Owlflame's kits. She's in the nursery." She felt Stormrunner's body stiffen, "I'm going to visit her and make sure she's okay," the warrior meowed, "Okay, let me know how she's doing and after you've done that you can lead the border patrol with Mottlefang and Tawnynose. The snow is very heavy and you are the three tallest cats in camp so I'll let you three get to it. I'll take Hazelpaw hunting while the others train so that she can learn how to hunt in the snow,"

Stormrunner quietly padded into the nursery. His paws barely made a sound, but Sparrowfrost was there anyway. Lying comfortably in her nest, cleaning her pelt. The nursery was warm and humid, but the cold winter air was still finding it's way inside. "Sparrowfrost," the tabby warrior started, his eyes piercing into the pretty tortoiseshell queen. "Stormrunner," she replied, seemingly unfazed by his approach. "You're expecting kits," he murmured, noting her rather swollen belly. Sparrowfrost rolled her eyes, "You're only finding out now?" she asked, "I guess I am a bit late on the news. It'll be good to see new little paws running around camp," Stormrunner stated, pain growing in his stomach from imagining Sparrowfrost with another tom. "I don't know if I'm ready for kits, but I'm over halfway through the pregnancy." "Honeystar wanted to know if you were alright," the grey warrior continued, his tail twitching. "Tell her I'm fine. That silly she-cat frets over me like a mother. Featherburr and Owlflame don't fuss half as much as she does," the queen said with a hint of amusement in her tone, "I think she's just feeling scared. You're the only family she has left and she doesn't want to loose you now," Stormrunner explained. The two talked for another while before Stormrunner excused himself for a patrol. On his way out, he turned around and raced up to Sparrowfrost, nuzzling into her cheek, much to her surprise, "Stormrunner? What are you-" "We both know that those kits' father should have been me. I'll always love you more than Owlflame does," Stormrunner hissed in her ear, before turning and walking back out of the nursery.

Owlflame was everything that Stormrunner never was. He had a position of power within the clan while Stormrunner was just a warrior; he was a purebred Abyssinian cat while Stormrunner was just a common tabby; he had a lean, muscular build while Stormrunner was just tall and lanky; he was brave, outgoing and good-humored while Stormrunner was quiet, reserved and sweet. Owlflame had got everything Stormrunner ever wanted and Stormrunner wanted to change that for good.

After ordering Mossfur to go on a patrol, and watching Poppyblossom leave to go look for herbs like always. She sighed, and looked at the sky. She noticed it was almost night, she stood up and and walked out of camp. If she walked fast enough now, then she would make it to the moonpool in time. As she trudged through the snow as fast as she could she soon made it to the moonpool. She quickly entered the area, and a wave of fatigue hit her, she stared at the glimmering water, amazed by all the stars, she laid down. Before closing her eyes and touching her nose to the cool surface she prayed that she would get a strong fierce deputy.

Caveclan
Number of Cats: 33
16 males : 16 females

The clan's recent explosion of growth made Caveclan uneasy. Three new members, all from dissolved clans? It worried Morningstar and he had firmly made up his mind not to accept any more cats from a former clan. Sparrow-wind's, Mintpaw's, and Burrwhisker's arrival had thrown the clan into a tense, nervous mood. No cat understood just how quickly those clans had fallen. And if that wasn't enough, Burrwhisker's arrival had caused quite the stir among a few of the clan. Upon seeing the tom, Harespring had immediately been against his joining the clan, stating his distrust of the tom and shooting Sedgetail suspicious glances. The silver tabby had easily accepted all three new arrivals, greetings her cousin Sparrowwind with particular interest. And after the clan's meeting had finished, Sedgetail took it upon herself to show the new recruits around camp. The molly soon after took Burrwhisker on a tour of the territory while Sparrowwind and Mintpaw got settled into their new dens. Despite the suspicions of Harespring and a few others, the rest of the clan welcomed them, casting aside the fact that they were from other clans as if it was nothing.

Weather:
A blizzard has set in. Snow has already covered everyone's territory, causing even the tallest cats to struggle through it. Be careful where you place your paws, you might end up in trouble. Be careful with sending the same cat out multiple times, they might caught whitecough, or even worse, greencough. New cats will be easy to find, since a lot of them are searching for shelter from the blizzard.

Bone watched as a new cat, named Milk, came into the camp. Blue explained that she knew how to assist birthing, so she could be the healer. He could tell Arrow as a little irritated that they now had a cat who wasn't going to contribute prey.
"It'll be fine, dear, she's going to at least make sure our kits make it through any weather." He reassured, smiling at her contently. This seemed to calm his mate.
"Bone, you're called to patrol borders this time, the rest of us are going hunting." He told the clan, going with his hunting group.
──────────────────────────
Bone edged the border on his patrol, then so he could smell the death in the air. As he followed the scent into another clan's territory, he could smell the familiarity of it. 'Owldust, that idiotic, yet beautiful queen...' He thought, smelling the birth fluids. "Something to investigate." He remarked cleverly.
He knew which direction the kits were, so he sniffed around for some fox dung. Ignoring the awful stench, he rolled around in it to mask his own clan scent, he wasn't in the business for starting a battle between Hyenaclan and Briarclan.
The tom came up upon a camp, spotting the nursery den. With little to no cats around, he snuck straight into the den.
Bone looked down at the small, weak bodies of the kits. Two of them look just like the beauty. "These cats have no idea how to raise the strong and smart... You might end up with mistakes, like Owldust..." He mumbled to the three sleeping kits, more of him thinking out loud.
His instincts kicked in as he heard a cat nearing the nursery, so he simply snatched up one of the tom-kits, sprinting away silently from the den.
──────────────────────────
Arrow still had some pain numbing her, but she simply ignored that. As she looked down at her own litter of kits, her own children, she was simply ignoring anything bad coming her way. She was about to tell Milk to leave when Bone pushed his way through a hole in the back of the nursery.
"Arrow, I can explain this..." He said to her, air huffing out of him.
"What do you mea-" When she saw a kit dangling from her mouth, she understood what he meant. "Where did that come from!" She demanded. The kit almost looked just like him, did he cheat on her??
"I took it from another clan, they are incompetent and this kit deserves better." Was all he explained. He set the kit down next to her own, which were about the same age. "Just say he's your kit, he looks enough like me that it's believable." He pleaded.
As she looked at the kit with her own, she already hated it. Yet, the look in Bone's eyes made her agree. "Fine." She hissed, turning her head over to Milk. "This stays between us." She warned, but enjoyed the response she was given.
"My duty here is to serve you first. If you wish for me to keep quiet, I will do so." The other she-cat told her, dipping her head.

[hi! i was the previous maker of sandclan, who then went inactive. i've pm-ed katrione, and they said that it was fine to make a new clan, and that they would be my mod again. thanks!]

my clan is called cragclan. their territory consists on a pretty big cliff that looks down to a pine tree forest. their camp is on top of the cliff, sheltered by some dead trees and shrubbery. it is very rare to see any alive trees on top of the cliff, if the clan does need trees for any reason, they must make a pretty dangerous trip down the cliff and to the pine forest below. since they live in a pretty dry place with little water, the clan has gathered huge bundles of moss which they keep stored in a shady part of the medicine cat's den. the moss, which is filled with water, usually keeps the clan's thirst quenched for quite a while. however, when they do need to get more water, there is a stream that flows through the cliff, and actually comes and goes out of a cave. all of the dens of the clan are slits carved into the cliff's walls, sort of like mini caves that aren't too deep.

cragclan cats have special skills in speed and leaping. they are pretty clumsy when swimming or climbing trees, seeing as there is no need to learn those skills due to their territory. they have adapted short fur and tough pads to face the usually tough heat, and the always tough rocky grounds. cragclan cats are stereotypically quite bold and alert. they tend to stay out of conflicts, but if it's something that they truly believe fighting for, they will most definitely fight with all they've got. sometimes cats may think that cragclan cats are too paranoid, or scaredy cats.

[ Cragclan has been founded ]

briarstar trotted into camp, a wide smile on her face masked by the rabbit in her mouth. for the beginning of leaf-bare, this was good. cleared a patch of snow and directed her deputy to put the rest of the food there. "we'll be good with this, just the two of us for a little while. but it'll be good to start stocking up on fresh-kill. i'll dig a hole to put our kill in for now," she says, trying and failing to mask her excitement. smokestep chuckles, shaking his head as his leader runs off to dig the hole in a corner of the camp. "ever excited, briarstar." he murmured, sparkling eyes glancing up at his superior.

a few minutes later, briarstar comes bouncing back. "you take the kill over to the hole, i'm heading out for another patrol." she chirps, smokestep stops her. "briarstar, i don't want you catching a cold, are you sure?" his eyes glittered with worry. "i'll be fine, i'm the one with lives to spare, remember?" she chuckles at her own dark humor. the deputy scoffed, but let her go nonetheless.

"birchstripe! birchstripe!" the clan cheered the new warrior's name. i said my congratulations and headed towards adderflight, who was sharing tongues with crowfur. i should tell her that im going to the moonpool. i needed to leave as soon as possible so that i could get there at a decent time. also, i wanted some time to be alone with my thoughts. there were so many things happening and i just needed some time to sort them out.
"hey, adderflight," i said. she looked up, murmuring something to crowfur before heading towards me.
"yeah, russetstar?"
"im leaving to go to the moonpool now, so watch over the clan when im gone."
"okay, sure. may starclan light your path," she told me, licking my shoulder. i nodded my thanks, turning to head out. i was extremely grateful that laurelclan was growing steadily. quickpaw was doing very well in his training. in fact, he would have his warrior ceremony in just a few moons. littlestep was the best hunter in the clan and her littermate, rainclaw, seemed like a good fighter though we haven't had a chance to find out yet. which was a good thing. the last thing we needed was an invasion or injuries. hickorylight didn't have many herbs, and it would be extremely difficult to find any in this weather.
i glanced down at my paws, which were immersed in the freezing snow. it was a struggle to get through it and my thin coat didn't help with the cold. there had been a blizzard the past couple of days, and i worried that we wouldn't find much prey. every creature huddled in their nest, trying to stay warm. and here i am, making a journey to a pool of water. only a mouse-brained fool would be caught out here. i shook my head, pushing my way through.
one thought that constantly plagued me was my feelings for hickorylight. he was a great cat overall; he had an optimistic personality and good looks. he was a skilled medicine cat. but that was exactly it: he was a medicine cat. i could never be with him. starclan would never forgive me. a leader and a medicine cat? unfathomable! so why was he constantly on my mind? he was very friendly with me, but he was probably just being that. a friend. we could never be anything more. you can never be with him. i had to play that in my head over and over again. especially when i was around him. when we talk, it's like there's nothing else except us. he understands me and he knows how to comfort me. it's like we're meant to be. except we're not.
i sighed, fluffing up my pelt in an attempt to stop the cold. but i couldn't prevent the freezing feeling of loneliness that was building up in my heart. i knew that being leader of a clan would be difficult, but i didn't account for the fact that i would fall for my medicine cat. what would hickorylight think if knew my feelings for him? would he feel the same? it doesn't matter. i can't be with him. i can never be with him.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"my paws are frozen!"
"hush, you'll scare all the prey away, mouse-brain," rainclaw whispered. i held my tongue, not because rainclaw said to, but because we needed all the prey we could get. it was snowing slightly, and i desperately wished i had a thicker coat. i glanced over at the she-cat, who was shaking the snow off of her pelt. i had to admit, in the white moor, she looked quite pretty.
i had been in laurelclan for a little bit less than a moon, and in that time i had gotten to know my clanmates. rainclaw was very distant with everyone besides littlestep, and im determined to change that. i actually doing the pair quite interesting. they seemed like complete opposites, with littlestep being quiet and reserved and rainclaw being forward and abrasive.
"what're you staring at," rainclaw asked, narrowing her eyes.
"nothing. what're you standing there for?" rainclaw just shook her head before walking away.
"what?"
"you're like a useless apprentice!" she blurted.
"excuse me, that's useless warrior to you."
"goodness," she mumbled. "come on. the faster we catch something, the faster we can get back to camp and get out of the cold."
"hey, i know a way to warm up."
"oh, really now," rainclaw said, clearly not impressed.
"yeah. all you have to do is run. it'll warm you up."
"we need to catch prey," she said, half-heartedly.
"littlestep and crowfur can do that. come on," i said, beckoning her with my tail. "race you!" i ran off, pushing my way through the snow. hopefully she followed me, otherwise i'll look ridiculous. after a moment, i looked behind me, searching for her blue fur.
"looking for something?" i looked up to see rainclaw in front of me. i narrowed my eyes, wondering how she got past without me noticing.
"nope. what made you think that?" i took a few pawsteps forward, swiping at her muzzle playfully. she quickly dodged it, hitting my ear lightly.
"you're no match for me," she meowed confidently.
"oh, really? we'll see about that."

Let the old cat die out there, last thing we need is another mouth to feed with leaf-bare in full swing." Yinpelt snarled as he led the way back into camp.

The entire way back to camp, Windstorm and Jayleap tried to convince him to help them find the old loner in the morning, but he refused. They both just sighed at that point and gave up. The two of them would be able to find the cat without Yinpelt slowing them down.

The cats made their report to Jinxstar and then went to bed. With the could weather there was really no point in staying outside any longer then was necessary.

Jinxstar awoke early and doled out work orders before leading his patrol out of camp.

As Ashenstep shook off her coat and wandered VerglasClan's camp, Egretpool approached Mallowpath with a scowl. "So? How do you like her?" the deputy mewed gently, referring to the new warrior. Egretpool glanced around briefly before hissing, "I can't stand her. She's all sweet and quiet, and—" "And you're loud and rude," Mallowpath interjected with a joking grin. "Exactly!" Egretpool exclaimed. "Thank StarClan, someone understands. I can't believe I'm going to have to share a den with that pigeon brain." Mallowpath's face twisted into a grimace. "I think someone may have overheard you..." he said softly. Egretpool turned to see Ashenstep staring at her. Instead of the gray tabby's usual gentle smile, the she-cat was glaring sharply. Rolling her eyes, Egretpool turned back to Mallowpath. "Anyway, how did hunting with Rimestar go?" she asked, changing the subject. The tom sighed, his face falling. "Honestly, I have no idea. I don't think it went terribly, but it's hard to tell. She's just so stoic all the time," he mewed sullenly. "Do you maybe want to try again today?" Egretpool suggested. Mallowpath shook his head. "That would be way too obvious. The two of us on a patrol together for the second time in a row? She would definitely catch on. Besides, I think she's already going to the moonpool," he mewed. As if on cue, Rimestar padded from her den with a determined look. "I'm going soon to share tongues with StarClan," she told Mallowpath. "You know what to do." Rimestar was nearly to the cave entrance when Egretpool spoke up. "Do you really think that's a good idea, what with the blizzard and everything? Perhaps you could stay a little closer to camp, at least until the weather starts to get warmer?" The leader gave the white-furred warrior a stern look before realizing that she was speaking for Mallowpath. "I... appreciate your concern, but I really must go," she explained carefully. "I'm not going to let any amount of snow keep me from speaking with StarClan." Without another word, Rimestar slipped from the cave to tackle the snow. "Well, thanks for trying, at least," Mallowpath muttered. "I should probably start to figure out patrols." Egretpool frowned. "Please don't tell me I'm going to have to be with the new she-cat," she pleaded. "I was just hoping the same thing. You think I'd want to be on a patrol with you?" Ashenstep mewed, padding up from behind her new denmate. Egretpool sneered, stepping up to the gray tabby. Although she was only one moon younger, Ashenstep was the size of a large apprentice at best. "Oh look, the little one has opinions," Egretpool mewed sarcastically. Mallowpath cleared his throat, looking very uncomfortable as he stepped between the two she-cats. "So how about I patrol the borders, and you two can hunt—" "You're joking, right?" Egretpool interrupted. The deputy straightened his spine, holding himself with confidence and dignity despite his uneasiness in the situation. "No, I'm not joking. We should have someone patrolling the borders, and we should also have as many people hunting as possible. And I want Ashenstep to at least familiarize herself with the territory before patrolling the borders on her own," he mewed decisively."Let's just get this over with," Ashenstep muttered, shoving past Egretpool on her way outside.

"Cheer up Willowpaw, next time I am sure you will catch an ermine." Brambletuft meowed to her sister, concern was heavily in her voice.

"I said I am fine Bramblep- tuft, can you just leave me alone please?" Willowpaw grumbled. Of course she was upset, she was the only apprentice to not catch an Ermine and it was her fault. She thought it was easy to capture one but she had no idea they fought back and she let hers go in shock.

Cloudstar finally came out of the nursery, he looks like he had gotten some bad news though before he went up on high rock and began addressing the clan. Every cat was already gathered below and he didn't bother to do the usual calling. He flicked his tail to Mudpaw for him to come forward. Mudpaw already knew what to do as he had watched Brambletuft and Russetmist go through this, he felt bad for Willowpaw but was to full of joy to truly care. The young tom practically skipped forward and tripped a few times because of this. Even though a few cats chuckled at him he did not care and ignored them as he started to eat his ermine and Cloudstar continued "I, Cloudstar, leader of Briarclan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. He has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend him to you as a warrior in his turn. Mudpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?"

All eyes one him now Mudpaw swallowed the bite he was on before speaking "You bet I will!" he boasted with a smile.

Cloudstar rolled his eyes quickly, a simple nod like the others would have been nice. "Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Mudpaw, from this moment you will be known as Mudpuddle. StarClan honors your loyalty and strength, and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan." Before the clan could chant the tom's name Cloudstar continued "We have a few kits now that are ready to become apprentices, Ryekit, Aspenkit please come up here."

The two kits had been groomed and bathed by their mother for their first clan meeting, they knew what was coming and couldn't sit still through the whole ceremony. When their name was called they trotted up to the high rock in a giggling manor. The two were very excited and didn't sit down as they stood next to Cloudstar.

Cloudstar couldn't help but smile at them, the first two kits that have been born in Brairclan under his rein were ready to be apprentices. He felt pride and knew the rest of the clan was just as happy, the tom took a breathe before turning his gaze away from the two "Ryekit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Ryepaw. Your mentor will be Oriolefeather. I hope Oriolefeather will pass down all she knows on to you." Cloudstar looked around for the calico molly and saw that she already knew what to do as she made her way towards high rock. "Oriolefeather, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You have shown yourself to be graceful and determined. You will be the mentor of Ryepaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to Ryepaw." Though to be honest he hoped this just gave the molly less free time to torment him with her flirtatious attitude.

Just before Cloudstar could address Aspenkit, Blizzardsong began to outrage. He was simmering with rage in the back of the crowd the whole time and couldn't keep silent anymore "Cloudstar! You can't possibly think that I would allow for some...some kittypet to train my kit?!" He growled as the crowd around him circled around him.

Cloudstar wore a blank expression "Blizzardsong, you need to keep quiet. Not only am I addressing the clan but Starclan is among us tonight." he growled.

"You are so weak! Starclan does not even exist! It is just something you tell a bunch of kits to get them to listen. I will not sit by any longer just to watch you poison my kit's minds." Blizzardsong spat at the leader.

"Go take a walk Blizzardsong, you are ruining MY kit's ceremony." Dawnflower was in the tom's face now as she hissed at him. She was prepared to attack him but she didn't have to.

"This is foolish Dawnflower, you are foolish. This clan will fall, by my paws too." The tom whispered to his ex-mate before turning off and stalking away. His tail was lashing in anger as he disappeared. The ceremony continued Aspenkit became Aspenpaw and received Foxclaw as a mentor, but every cat was on edge and when it came time to chant the new names it was quiet at first. Dawnflower broke the silence then and cheered for the three cats, the clan eventually joined in.
───────────────────────
"This way kittens!" Purred Lyra, though it was her son Little Dipper leading the way. "I am sure camp is back this way." she added.

"Just admit it mother, you are lost. We are lost! And no cat is out looking for us either." Ursa complained. She was dragged along on this 'adventure' by her mother and brother and wanted nothing more but to snuggle back in her nest at home. She sighed, once again and began to mutter utter nonsense about her family's navigation skills, even a few curses slipped through.

"Adventure...adventuring over this way...adventuring a little over here!" Little Dipper chanted as he scouted ahead. He didn't care where he was going, just so long as he was going. He was just as empty headed as his mother as he took in the new sights happily. "Oh look! More cats are coming this way mum." he hoped ahead to greet them.

"Oh wait Dipper! We don't know if they are friendly or not." Lyra exclaimed, but it was to late. The much excited Dipper was already introducing himself to the Briarclan patrol. "I told you I knew where I was going." the queen whispered to her doubting daughter as if it was her plan to run into strangers.

Ursa only rolled her eyes and trotted up next to her brother "You will have to excuse my brother, he is as bee-brained as our mother." That caused a few smirks from a few of the cats in the patrol, she paid no mind to it though and continued on "My mother got us lost and we have been traveling for weeks now. Please could you offer us some place warm to stay? At least for the night?" The kit asked kindly. It was obvious she was the smartest of the three travelers.

"Uh..sure. My name is Cloudstar, the leader of Briarclan. Why don't you explain how you found our territory and why you are so far from home?" The leader began as he lead the way back to camp. He listened to what the smart little kit had to say and only peered behind him to make sure the other's were following. Both the queen and tom-kit were to busy looking at everything covered in snow and babbling nonsense to each other, he could see why this she-kit was so mature.
───────────────────────
Tigerkit watched her mother tend to Owldust's kits, her den mates were out training right now and didn't have time to play anymore. The little kit felt alone and left out, her own mother traded her for new kits. Yet Tigerkit couldn't be mad at them, instead she fled the nursery. She knew where she was going when she entered the den, not bothering to tell any cat where she went as she hid in the large nest, waiting for her father to return. For now the little molly was alone and crying, sleep did eventually consume her.

Bouldershade returned from his patrol and was looking for Tigerkit, shocked to find her in his nest and not Fawnwillow's. "Tigerkit? Is something wrong?" he asked as he joined her in his nest, he gave her a few comforting licks on her head as he listened to her voice her complaints.

"Mother doesn't love me anymore. She has those new kits to look after now." Tigerkit sniffled. "Aspenkit and Ryekit are not kits anymore and are always busy with their mentors so we can't play anymore. Why do I have to be all alone?" she whimpered.

"Oh Tigerkit, your mother and I love you very much. Yes she has taken the responsibility of Owldust's kits but that does not mean she doesn't love you. Maybe you should talk to her about it? She will understand and I am sure she didn't mean to hurt you." Bouldershade explained. "Aspenpaw and Ryepaw are training to become the new warriors of the clan so of course they are to busy to just play. You will get a mentor soon, so don't worry about that either."

"I don't want to wait! I am just as big as Aspenpaw and Ryepaw." Tigerkit complained "I want to be an apprentice now." she added.

Bouldershade shook his head "You will have to wait. But how about I take you to see the training area? Maybe I can show you a few simple things?"

"Really?" Tigerkit looked back to herself again, her cheery nature coming back out.

"Yeah, though lets wait for tomorrow. I am really tired. Now you better get back to the nursery before you worry your mom." The tom purred to his kit and nudged her up. She didn't say anything as she bounced out of the den and towards the nursery happily.
───────────────────────
It was a quiet day in camp, Owldust's kittens were sleeping peacefully now. Every warrior was out doing something and Bouldershade had taken Tigerkit out on an outing. It was just Fawnwillow, alone at camp. She had stepped away from the nursery to bury the remains of her prey and to make dirt before heading back into the nursery. When she got back to the group of kits though she noticed that one was missing and panicked. The molly looked everywhere, she knew the kit could not go far.

Fawnwillow let out a loud yowl, hoping that any cat would hear so they may come help. For now she did not let the other kits out of her sight, even when others returned to camp to see what was the matter. By sun down though, the whole clan was shaken. There was an intruder among them, or a murderer. All eyes were on Blizzardsong though, no one trusted him.

Cloudstar called the clan together that night after a talk with Bouldershade and a few others. They agreed that camp will always have two active warriors in camp, not including the queens. They will watch both exits to the camp and will rotate through the day. He also welcomed the new queen and two kits to the clan, giving them the names Lyrasong, Dipperkit and Berrykit.
───────────────────────
Just when things were starting to settle down in camp after the kit napping and Blizzardsong's out burst at his kit's mentors, the tom had to start his plans once again. He had stashed death berries in the camp and even with the added security he managed to hide some in the prey in the fresh kill pile. When other's would ask what he was up to he would simply say he is sorting through it and riding the pile of rotten food.

Badgerfall was the first to grab a piece of poisoned prey and was stopped many times before she could begin eating. It was a conversation with Coppereyes that made her pick at her own food, so much so that she saw the berry roll out from it's mouth. Coppereyes gasped but Badgerfall was already on her paws, informing Cloudstar. The leader did his best to keep this quiet and ordered that the prey be looked over. A mistake to ask Blizzardsong to set to the task. The tom never did.

Later on in the day Bouldershade had been eating before he started convulsing, acting as if he could not breathe. It was Tigerkit who ran to get Archpool, the medicine cat had his suspicions of the cause because Cloudstar had informed him and he had the yarrow ready to go. The medicine cat worked quickly and managed to save Bouldershade from dying.

Cloudstar confronted Blizzardsong about it but all of a sudden it started to storm. The winter weather got worse and the blizzard around the camp became strong. The leader didn't have much time to process this because Blizzardsong attacked him while he was not looking. It wasn't long until the clan came to the leader's aid "Chase him to the mountains! He can die there!" Cloudstar spat the orders. Even with the heavy blizzard the cats carried out the orders, and just like that Blizzardsong has been exiled from the clan to the deadly mountains.(He dies)

beeface was silent as they made the trek back to the camp with the new warrior in tow. this new cat was curious, questions stringing out of her maw nonstop. the warrior had called herself stoatflower, she seemed like a good cat to beeface. but then again she was now questioning her thoughts on her leader. on how he had snapped at her for how she had treated quailfoot. maybe he was right, but it didn't give him the ability to cut into beeface's life. especially not like how he did. stoatflower softly brushed her tail against beeface's hind leg gaining the medicine cat's attention. "is there something wrong, you haven't answered any of my questions." stoatflower purred softly, mothstar looked at beeface steely. his look told beeface everything she needed to know, the conversation they'd had was not for this cat's ears. beeface sighed and looked to the ground, "i'm just a little tired." stoatflower didn't seem all to pleased with this answer from beeface, however, mothstar was quick to take stoatflower's attention.

"stoatflower," the tom quickly mewed. "would you like to go on patrol with quailfoot and myself?" stoatflower seemed to bounce with giddiness as she was invited on patrol. "oooh!" the she-cat purred as she rubbed herself against mothstar. "i would love to go onto patrol." mothstar smiled nervously. he was interested in one of the mollies walking with him, but stoatflower wasn't her. mothstar quickened his pace as they neared the camp, quailfoot's scent growing stronger as they grew closer. stoatflower was quick to walk into the camp letting beeface and mothstar follow her through the grasses. stoatflower trotted to the new tom in order to introduce herself, "hello i'm stoatflower, and who might you be?" quailfoot looked the new warrior over swiftly a sheepish grin hiding the wolf inside of the tom. "i'm quailfoot, it's a pleasure to meet such a beautiful she-cat like yourself." quialfoot purred as he rubbed against stoatflower, playfully biting at her ear ever so gently. stoatflower purred back as the tom lead her outside of the camp. "i'll be joining you and mothstar on border patrol, maybe we should go back and get him?" stoatflower asked curiously as she continued to fall into quailfoot's oh so alluring trap. quailfoot lead the molly to a rock where they sat together watching the forest below silently.

"you truly are the most beautiful she-cat i have met," quailfoot said coyly. stoatflower laughed softly leaning against the older tom snuggling herself into his pelt. "stoatflower, i know this might sound odd." quailfoot chuckled as he wrapped his tail around the young molly. "would you like to be my mate?" stoatflower smiled widely. the naïve cat falling directly into quialfoot's trap. "ooh! yes, i would love to be your mate!" the exuberant molly exclaimed. quailfoot smirked ever so slightly.

back at the camp mothstar sat with beeface. she watched the ground, studying the dirt. mothstar groaned ever so lightly. "please, beeface, i didn't mean it that way!" mothstar said moving closer to her. she stayed still, looking over at him briefly. "i'm sure you didn't." she said softly. mothstar stood quickly and stopped right in front of her. he gently pressed his maw against the molly's forehead. softly nuzzling her. "it's just that i care," mothstar pleaded. she didn't speak to him, instead she got up and walked out of the camp silently.

beeface wandered into the woods searching through the grasses for herbs that she could take back to her den.

the two lovebirds walked into camp finding mothstar pacing across the camp a scowl set on his face. he looked up at the two and growled ever so slightly before leading them into the woods, not saying a word as he glared at quailfoot who was coyly playing with stoatflower throughout the patrol.

When Honeystar and Owlflame returned from their patrol and training, respectively, the two cats made a dash for the nursery. Sparrowfrost was with Hazelpaw, who was tending to her and her nest, bringing in fresh moss and making sure that she was okay. The sun was quickly setting and a cold breeze filled the air. Honeystar's eyes clouded with concern, "The weather's taking a turn for the worse," the pale ginger leader murmured quietly before approaching her sister and nuzzling into her neck. 'Oh, dear StarClan. I can only pray that Sparrowfrost and her kits make it out safe,' She thought, before pulling away and turning around, "Hazelpaw, go get Minnowpaw and Cloudpaw and bring them to the apprentices' den. Bring some fresh-kill if you haven't already eaten and stay in the den. Owlflame, go get the new warrior and bring her into the warriors' den as well. We can't have her wandering about outside camp in this weather. She seems like a fine cat so we'll accept her in as a warrior anyway." The leader ordered. Hazelpaw nodded firmly before dashing out of the nursery and Owlflame twitched his tail before dashing over to touch his nose to Sparrowfrost's before following Hazelpaw out of the den. "If you need anything or you feel something is wrong please come and find me," Honeystar firmly said to Sparrowfrost before turning and walking back out of the den.

Honeystar was right. The air was icy and the winds howled that night. The next morning, a thick blanket of snow covered the entire camp. When the leader woke up and walked outside, she was surprised that the only cat outside was Stormrunner. His eyes were filled with worry, "Sparrowfrost is missing," he murmured, his eyes pleading Honeystar for help. "WHAT?!" Honeystar almost screamed. Stormrunner nearly jumped out of his skin, but just blinked at the leader, "She didn't come into the warriors' den last night." he continued, concern lacing his tone. Honeystar immediately relaxed at this, walking up and resting her head on the warrior's flank. "You nearly gave me a heart attack. Haven't you already heard, Stormrunner? Sparrowfrost is expecting Owlflame's kits. She's in the nursery." She felt Stormrunner's body stiffen, "I'm going to visit her and make sure she's okay," the warrior meowed, "Okay, let me know how she's doing and after you've done that you can lead the border patrol with Mottlefang and Tawnynose. The snow is very heavy and you are the three tallest cats in camp so I'll let you three get to it. I'll take Hazelpaw hunting while the others train so that she can learn how to hunt in the snow,"

Stormrunner quietly padded into the nursery. His paws barely made a sound, but Sparrowfrost was there anyway. Lying comfortably in her nest, cleaning her pelt. The nursery was warm and humid, but the cold winter air was still finding it's way inside. "Sparrowfrost," the tabby warrior started, his eyes piercing into the pretty tortoiseshell queen. "Stormrunner," she replied, seemingly unfazed by his approach. "You're expecting kits," he murmured, noting her rather swollen belly. Sparrowfrost rolled her eyes, "You're only finding out now?" she asked, "I guess I am a bit late on the news. It'll be good to see new little paws running around camp," Stormrunner stated, pain growing in his stomach from imagining Sparrowfrost with another tom. "I don't know if I'm ready for kits, but I'm over halfway through the pregnancy." "Honeystar wanted to know if you were alright," the grey warrior continued, his tail twitching. "Tell her I'm fine. That silly she-cat frets over me like a mother. Featherburr and Owlflame don't fuss half as much as she does," the queen said with a hint of amusement in her tone, "I think she's just feeling scared. You're the only family she has left and she doesn't want to loose you now," Stormrunner explained. The two talked for another while before Stormrunner excused himself for a patrol. On his way out, he turned around and raced up to Sparrowfrost, nuzzling into her cheek, much to her surprise, "Stormrunner? What are you-" "We both know that those kits' father should have been me. I'll always love you more than Owlflame does," Stormrunner hissed in her ear, before turning and walking back out of the nursery.

Owlflame was everything that Stormrunner never was. He had a position of power within the clan while Stormrunner was just a warrior; he was a purebred Abyssinian cat while Stormrunner was just a common tabby; he had a lean, muscular build while Stormrunner was just tall and lanky; he was brave, outgoing and good-humored while Stormrunner was quiet, reserved and sweet. Owlflame had got everything Stormrunner ever wanted and Stormrunner wanted to change that for good.

"Are you sure that you don't want to take on a warrior name?" asked Honeystar.

Mila nodded. "Yes," she said, accent slurring the word a bit. "I wish to keep my name as a reminder of my former life, but I promise to be a good...clan member."

"Fine," said Honeystar, mildly frustrated. While she liked the molly, she had hoped to convince Mila to give up her name in place of a warrior name. However, if Mila proved herself, then Honeystar wouldn't say another word. "Then would you like to start by going fishing?"

Mila's ears perked up and her tail waved slightly. "Da!" she exclaimed in Russian as she usually did when excited.

Honeystar chuckled. "Alright, then. Off you go."

***
Later that moon, Honeystar called everyone to the Speaker's Tree for an announcement, something that surprised some of the warriors--and kits.

"Am I gonna be an appentice now, mamma?" asked Patchkit, looking up at Snowfoot. His littermates bounded around him, eagerly awaiting the answer.

"No," she said with a chuckle. "Wait a couple of moons."

Fleckstorm snorted with amusement. "Enjoy being a kit while you can," she said.

"Hmph," said Bramblingkit. "Boulderpelt said that being an apprrrentice is really fun." She prounced the "r" extra carefully with a sidelong glance at Patchkit who glared back.

"Stop teasing," he whined. Tipkit's whiskers twitched with laughter while Brightkit openly laughed.

A short time later, everyone had gathered around the Tree and understood once they saw Crowcloud and Dustpaw sitting next to Honeystar in the lower branches.

"I believe that Dustpaw has become sufficiently advanced in her training that she is ready to be considered a full medicine cat,"" said Crowcloud without preamble. "Tonight, we will go to the Moonpool and announce her new name to Starclan. She will leave as an apprentice and come back as an adult." He paused, waiting for the cheering to subside. Dustpaw looked around nervously and gave a little smile when she saw her littermates grinning widely.

"We wish that Starclan will be with you tonight,"" said Honeystar loudly, both to the medicine cats and to the clan. Crowcloud and Dustpaw nodded gratefully and jumped down, leaving camp swiftly with everyone hoping they would return safely.

***
Crowcloud and Dustpaw reached the Moonpool just as the moon was starting to rise, giving the lake an eerie shine. They paused to rest, as traveling through the snow and constant winds had been hard, before Crowcloud spoke.

"Starclan," he said, "I bring to you an apprentice full of potential. She has studied the ways of a warrior and therefore understands them well, but she has chosen the path for a medicine cat to help in ways beyond hunting, fighting, and raising the next generation. She has chosen to walk this path to keep the clan healthy both in body and in spirit. I believe that she will do well and will teach those that come after her well. Dustpaw," said Crowcloud, turning to his apprentice, "will you come closer to me?"

Dustpaw complied, shaking slightly with apprehension and excitement. She had dreamed about this moment ever since she was a kit, and to be at the end of her apprenticeship was a strange feeling.

"Dustpaw, you have studied hard to learn the ways of the healer and of Starclan. Do you wish to continue this path as a full medicine cat?"

"I do," she whispered.

"Then I pronounce you Dustleaf for your willingness to work hard and understand the ways of healing and Starclan far exceeds my own." Crowcloud chuckled softly. "You are now a full medicine cat. Tonight we will sleep here and see if Starclan has anything to say."

***
Acornstream had started taking Mila and two of his kits out fishing more and more often. Mila had turned out to be superb despite her short tail, and he thought that her suffix would likely be -stream if she ever wanted to take on a clan name. Today, they were traveling to Crowcloud's Stream, which was small enough that they wouldn't fall in, but large enough that they usually found a few small fish in its waters.

"Let's hope the stream isn't frozen," Adderstream muttered.

Barleystream made a noise of agreement. "And hopefully no one falls in," she said. As they got further into leafbare, the snows had been getting higher and the weather had been getting colder. Falling into cold water was a nightmare for anyone these days.

"Agreed," said Adderstream.

***
No conversation was needed between the two hunters. Prey was scare these days, and neither wanted to scare it off. Briarwhisker raised her head to sniff the air while Daisywhisker pawed at the snow, hoping to make a small hole. The two's ears perked up at the sound of rustling and Briarwhisker looked at her hunting partner. Over there? she asked silently, motioning with her ears. Daisywhisker nodded and the two moved forward.

***
The border patrol was unusually quiet that day. Boulderpelt pawed at the snow once in a while, but otherwise didn't speak. Ashstripe looked annoyed as he slunk through the snow, ears pinned and tail low. Dawnstorm and Duckpelt simply walked through the territory. What was there to say? Everyone had been upset when they heard of the events of the last Gathering and that had seeped into their conversations--or at this point, the lack of them. The four simply walked in silence, alert for anything or anyone out of the ordinary.

"Starclan will still be there when your cold heals up," Goldeneye scolded, ushering his leader back to his nest. Gorsestar scowled stubbornly, meeting Goldeneye's disapproving glare. It wouldn't take him long to reach the Moonpool; he would be gone an hour, at most. But Goldeneye was apparently determined to keep him locked up in his den like he was a crippled elder.
"Fine, but I'm visiting the Moonpool as soon as my cold clears up. Blizzard or no blizzard," Gorsestar remarked, obediently curling up in his nest if only to placate his medicine cat.

"What do you mean I can't see him?" Mothfur cried, tail lashing in annoyance. Goldeneye let out a tired sigh, wincing at Mothfur's harsh tone. His second patient of the day was none more bearable than his first.
"It's bad enough you've decided to have kits in leaf-bare. We can't have you getting ill, too," Goldeneye snapped, patience breaking. Mothfur scowled, putting Gorsestar's earlier tantrum to shame. Goldeneye's silver fur bristled under the stare. From the entrance of the nursery, Nightwing chuckled at the exchange between the pair, drawing their attention to her. Goldeneye's glance was especially pleading, silently begging the dark warrior to soothe her friend's worries.
"Goldeneye's right, Mothfur," Nightwing purred, padding up to give the tabby she-cat a quick lick on her forehead. "Gorsestar wouldn't want you risk your health, or your kits', by visiting his den." Mothfur frowned, then sighed in defeat. She couldn't argue with that. Goldeneye threw the she-cat a thankful look, before quickly disappearing into the snow to look for herbs to prepare for Mothfur's kitting. "You keep warm from the blizzard, I'm going to see what prey I can find near the border," Nightwing soothed, brushing her tail against Mothfur's flank. Before her deputy could protest, as Nightwing knew she would, the thick-furred she-cat had disappeared from the cave, following the trail Goldeneye had already made in the deep snow.

- Weather Report -
Current Season: Leaf-bare.
The blanket of snow that coats the ground is blindingly bright amidst the stormy gray skies above and flecks of snow seem to float down to earth in a way that seems so frighteningly endless.
Prey is scarce, and finding a large meal when hunting is most certainly not a guarantee, it is also advised not to overexert your warriors either as the threat of catching greencough looms dangerously overhead.

Barleystorm came across a highly active thunderpath in her quest, the molly attempted to find any other alternatives to cross the path safely, yet everything came up blank. With shaking limbs, the cream-and-white warrior waited until she spotted a break and ran faster then she had ever done in her life, thankfully crossing without any trace of injury and a speeding heart that would a rabbit's run to shame.

Acornstream found solace in a quiet stream far away from AsterClan territory, feeling a little homesick and the tiniest bit upset that she had not found her flower yet. The molly eventually drifted off into a disappointed slumber, and woke up feeling suspiciously refreshed. Acornstream felt a tug in her mind that kept telling her to go north, and so that was the direction she started to move in.

The old tortoiseshell's limbs ached as she walked over a stony pathway in a twoleg settlement, frowning as the distant sound of barking dogs could be heard inside their dens. Emberheart, feeling tired over walking on cold snow, decided to rest in an alleyway underneath a large, square-shaped twoleg object that smelled faintly of crowfood and other unnamed trash.

Magick looked at the five kits, smiling. "They're just so cute!" She exclaimed, wishing she was twenty moons already so she could have her own. However, rules were rules.
"Yeah, let's just hope they're all great warriors." She commented, eyeing the biggest one, Dust.
"He'll be fine, Arrow, look at him! He's huge." She told the leader. "You worry too much."
Dust popped up, his legs still a little shaky. "Yeah, mother, I'll be great! I promise!" The little tom exclaimed, making Magick not be able to hold back a huge 'awwwwwwe'.
Arrow seemed as if she was about to say something, but Milk came on in. "Time for a check-up." She told them, looking over each kit carefully.
As she examined Hawk, she took some extra time. "Hawk, stand up for me." Milk ordered the kit, the little she-cat doing as she's told. "Why don't you take a walk outside the den and find your father for me?" She asked.
"Okay!" She exclaimed, her feet gingerly walking towards the other side of the den, way away from the open mouth of the nursery.
"Just what I thought..." Milk mumbled quietly. "Magick, stay here with the kits, I need to have a talk with Arrow."She told her, Magick nodding. 'Poor Hawk... She doesn't even seem to know!'
──────────────────────────
"She's blind, Arrow. That's the only explanation." Milk told her, yet Arrow couldn't quite believe it.
"But how! How my kit?" She questioned, almost toppling over crying.
"I can only say that life isn't fair, Arrow, she's blind and nothing I can do will fix it, sadly..." The healer informed.
Arrow laid down in one of the nests for sick cats, tears running down her face. "I have to abandon my own kit after she trains..." She cried, shaking.
"Arrow, you don't have to! She may not be able to become a warrior, but she could train with... Well, I could teach her to be a healer with me." Milk offered, giving Arrow a little hope.
"Well... With the clan growing as it is, it would help quite a bit to have a trainee with you..." Arrow said, smiling weakly, yet she also was still disappointed not to have all her kits strong. 'That wretched Owldust has her kit big and strong, now I take care of him, but my own is weak...'
"Go back to your kits, we'll wait telling Hawk her situation until she's an apprentice, she should enjoy being a kit now while she can." Milk ordered, sending the leader on her way.
