Paris

Trotting away from her den, Paris soon found herself overwhelmed with cat-scent. Peaking her head into what looked like an entrance, Paris found a camp full of cats.
Trying to scramble away, she tripped and tumbled into the camp itself.

Nightleaf

"Pine, are you sure? I'll be softer, looking after these three for 6 moons, and I'm going to ask for you to be promoted, and if not, I'll be demoted. I'm not changing ranks without you again. It's insane." She complained.
Looking her their kits, Nightleaf giggled a little. "And after you, you sneaky fox!"

Flamepelt
tom - senior warrior - 62 moons - apprentice: Gingerpaw - assigned mate: tba - crush: none - tags: open

He is open in forest...

Rayfeather
tom - warrior - 32 moons - apprentice: Silverpaw - assigned mate: Cherrynose - crush: Quietstar, open - tags: Cherrynose

He flicked his ears amusedly about he question "What do you mean? I would be what? a leader?" he meowed blinking slowly, before smilled "well what I think... anybody die too soon, not matter how old the live" he meowed sighing turning to see the familliar tom, realising that it was only Lionfang.

Lightningwing
she - Queen - 30 moons - apprentice: none - assigned mate: Archhallow - crush: open - tags: Buzzardgaze

She sat near the fresh kill pile and looked for her two adopted kits, smilling as the shy Firekit seemed to have a friend. Ears flicking toward the Warriors den, she was looking for her assigned mate Lumbertail, which seemed to be disappeared to somewhere. SHe knowed that he didn't love her, but still she wanted to be friends with him, but it seemed to be hard. Sighing she looked as Buzzardgaze padded toward the fresh kill pile, she smilled "Oh, You're up late, most patrols are being almost done" she meowed to him.

Snowpaw
she - apprentice - 11 moons - mentor: Peachwing - assigned mate: n/a - crush: open - tags: Cloudbreeze, Sunpaw, Peachwing,

Sighing she looked the cats around her, glancing at Sunpaw as the other apprentice starred at her, before taking her leave to the entrance. Sighing once again she didn't say anything just walked behing the others to their pointless patrol or so she think, that dog could be far gone By now and if it wasen't then why it's not attacked the camp again? She shaked her head as she looked grass under her feets.

Mintslash
agender - Hunter - 14 moons - apprentice: none - assigned mate: tba - crush: open - tags: open

She is open in camp...

Starlingkit
tom - kit - 5 moons - mentor: n/a - assigned mate: n/a - crush: open - tags: Riverpool, open

He rolled his eyes at the queens words "umm I am 5 moons old, I know what mossball is" he meowed silently, flicking his ears "thought you sure have lots of rules to the game" he meowed looking at the older she-cat.

Firekit
she - kit - 5 moons - mentor: n/a - assigned mate: n/a - crush: open - tags: Snowkit, Paris

She turned to avoid the other kit, but stumbled to her own legs, falling to the ground. Shaking her head she noticed some movements near the camp entrance "...look, there is someone hidding there?" she meowed suddently, stooding to her paws trying to see who the cat was.

Quietstar was silent her gaze unwavering as she stared at him long after his explanation was done. After a few more tense moments she nodded. ”Speaking as a fellow cat, your story touches me. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Speaking as a leader I am angry with your decisions and the audacity to you have to come here and expect that to be okay when you knew the rules and knew what you were doing. she said straightening herself up as she spoke. ”What you have done is betray your clan, breaking our sacred tradition of assigned mates which was put in place to prevent this sort of thing from happening and breaking our hearts. For breaking the tradition, I believe you have suffered enough loss to not be punished for that. That is forgiven. For leaving your clan the way you did you will be punished by demotion. You will become a hunter from now on. You have disgraced your position as a warrior and if you want it back you’ll have to work twice as hard as anyone else trying to become a warrior.” she paused again letting out a slow sigh. ”The worst thing you have done.. is not something you will answer to me for. It is not something I can punish you for. And that is for the pain you have caused your siblings. That is not something you can say sorry for simply and be done with. If you are to earn their forgiveness you must do so on your own and when they are ready to forgive you. Because remember this Lionfang, the time we have with our kin is not guaranteed. No one can replace them. You will never be able to have another sister or new brothers. They’re not friends. You can’t just get new ones. Think long and hard about the suffering you have inflicted upon them... As your leader I cannot help you with that.” Quietstar looked away then for a few moments before she looked back ”Speaking as your fellow clan mate and not as your leader, I’d like to advise you at the very least to never hurt Eaglefrost again. If you betray him again it will not be your leader you face. But his mate.” her eyes darkened slightly at the warning a protective look over taking her and for just a moment she wasn’t the leader. For a moment she was just herself, just a regular cat protecting someone they loved very much.

Swiftleap pulled his gaze away from the scene and their clanmates as Lionfang followed Wrentalon and Quietstar back into the leader's den. "Sounds like a plan to me." he mumbled standing up quickly. "Let's go Tigerpool." he said glancing around before he nudged her towards the camp entrance quickly as he headed towards it and slipped out. He didn't want any part of this situation and he could only imagine how it felt. What would he do if it was Reedgaze or Hawktalon seemingly coming back from the dead? In front of everyone.. He glanced away from camp uncomfortable and wanting to hurry up and get out of here.

The large brown tabby hesitated, glancing up at the sky as well for a moment. "I think we got a good chunk of training out of the way concerning things like this." he said. "Why don't we head back to camp? Unless you have anymore questions?" he asked tilting his head. Hawktalon glanced around surveying the area around them, though he was confident all dangers were gone from their territory you could never be too sure.

Reedgaze looked around camp trying to spot the two she-cats. "Yeah I guess you're right." she said. "I mean.. I thought about Eaglefrost.. He is Quietstar's mate but I guess you can't make someone your deputy just because they're your mate. I guess she'd like to have support from her mate and a deputy separately. It would get tiring to have to do everything on their own." she said. She then nodded slowly "Your choices make more sense though." she said. "At the very least one of them could have a shot at a senior rank?" she offered.

“Plenty of warriors have become queens and gone back to being warriors.” Pinesting insisted. He pinned his ears then. ”I don’t know if I’ve earned a promotion.. I was never as good at fighting as you were Night.” he admitted glancing away. That was something he felt guilty about, he wanted to be just as capable as her and be there to help if she ever needed it. ”I don’t want you to give up such a great title just for me.” he said..

Elmwind-tom-senior warrior

He shrugged and walked around the clearing, wishing desperately for someone to talk to.

Tigerpool-she-cat-warrior

She followed him out. They walked in silence until they came to the river. She gulped and flung herself into the water, squealing in delight, all thoughts of camp dissolving as she hit the water. She bobbed up and splashed Swiftleap. “Water’s nice, isn’t it!” She called teasingly.

Sorrelpaw-she-cat-apprentice

She flattened her ears against her head. Annoyance pricked through her, and it took all the effort she could muster to push it away, but she did. She took a deep breath. Sorrelpaw pulled her gaze from her beloved Bearpaw and began to talk. “I’ve never told anyone this but when I was little, I found out my father was actually a loner. I was angry, confused, hurt and scared at first. But then, I met him. Him and my brother, Kain. Once I met my brother, I felt at peace. He was the best tom cat I had ever met and, even though we had never met, I loved him and felt we had a deep connection. I used to sneak out to meet him at the border and we would spent the nights hunting, chatting and bonding. One night, I went to meet him but he wasn’t there. At first I shrugged it off, maybe he had something to take care of. But the more I thought about it, the more it bothered me. I knew something was wrong. My suspicions were confirmed when, the very next morning, I was out on patrol. We were patroling near the thunderpath. And I saw him. His lifeless, battered body just laying there, stuck to the ground. Just by the way he looked you could tell he’d been long dead. He’d probably gotten hit trying to cross to meet me. It broke me. I blamed myself and I became distant. No cat knew why so they just assumed that seeing the body had shaken me up. They never knew the cat lying there was my best friend and my brother. I miss him everyday.” She meowed, pausing “I’m not sure why I’m telling you this but. Just know that I care. I care about how you feel and I care that you’re happy. So if you want to talk, go ahead, I’m listening.”

☞WRENTALON felt the softness return to her heart as her sibling told his story, an ache beginning deep within her. Though he had betrayed not only his clan but his family, she couldn't help but feel his pain. Lionfang was so young as it was, and to lose kits and then your mate without a support network must have been unbearably painful. The deputy let her posture relax, her cold stare turning warmer as it filled with sympathy. The pretty calico remained silent as she allowed her leader to talk, nodding along in agreement with every word that passed her lips. Though the demotion was always a harsh course of action, she knew it was well deserved in his case, and the fact that Quietstar would potentially allow him to earn his place as a warrior again was more than he deserved. Wrentalon knew deep down that Lionfang would prove himself, no matter how long it took him. From what she remembered of her brother, it was in his nature to succeed and push himself to do what others thought he could not. The hunter looked on, wanting to gauge her brother's reaction at the mention of the pain he had caused them. Noticing the grief that coated his face, the she-cat was satisfied. Because her brothers would be much harder to bring around, in a moment of true familial love, the calico decided to show Lionfang mercy. Rising to her paws, she padded wordlessly over to her brother and leaned into him, rubbing. her pelt along his and giving him a quick lick of affection on his shoulder. The moment, though short lived, seemed to ease the strife between the two. Wrentalon retraced her steps, returning to Quietstar's side.

☞LIONFANG lowered his head in shame, eyes falling to the floor of the den as Quietstar addressed him. Though all of her words were purely the truth, it didn't mean they stung any less. In fact, as she uncovered his failings as a warrior and a sibling, he couldn't hide from the painfully evident honesty behind her words. It felt as though a claw was twisting deeper and deeper into his back, but the pale orange tome remained silent, allowing her to get out everything she needed. As she mentioned his ranking in the clan, the large tom visibly winced. Despite knowing that he would inevitably lose his standing as a respected warrior, he hadn't fully prepared himself for the disgrace. The speech coming to a close, he finally confirmed the relationship between his littermate and the leader of the clan. Lionfang had been suspicious, but he knew it was not an appropriate question ask at the time, nor was it appropriate to congratulate Eaglefrost or Quietstar. Not wanting to feel the wrath of an angry mate, the newly made hunter nodded vigorously. After feeling his sister's pelt brush against his own, a piece of him felt resolved, a missing piece of his heart returned. "I will make peace will all of my siblings if it is the last thing I do. I swear before you and Starclan that I will never do anything to cause this clan or my siblings harm again. I have learned my lesson and will continue to learn it until the day I die. This is the burden I have built for myself, and I alone must carry the guilt. I don't believe my soul will ever know rest and that is what I deserve. Quietstar, I promise to uphold our code and way of life to the best of my abilities. I swear to you that I will prove myself and become the best hunter." Lionfang knew she didn't have to trust his words, but he hoped that she would put some weight into them as he meant every word. The hunter rose to his paws, looking between the two she-cats. "Whatever there is that you need me to do, just name it at any time and I will do it. I am here to work as hard as I can in order to earn the trust of my siblings and my clan back."

☞BEARPAW sat, clearly agitated, tail twitching impatiently. Through no fault of his own, he'd only ever know how to cope with his unwanted emotions through aggression. Now here he was, trying to 'talk it out' or whatever Sorrelpaw wanted to call it. The ashen tom turned his cold green gaze on the younger apprentice, his eyes unblinking as expected her to fail miserably at consoling him. The older apprentice listened politely, staying stoically silent as she spoke, letting all of her words sink in. Though their stories were vastly different, he felt an eery similarity between the two of them. Bearpaw sat in silence for a good long while, simply staring at the she-cat through narrowed eyes. Finally, he parted his jaws to speak. "I don't quite know where to start." he admitted, voice still a bit gruff. "Obviously I'm the only one from my litter, so I look up to all of my older siblings, especially now that my parents are dead. Lionfang in particular because he could always find time for me. I watched him die- or at least I thought I did. It was so traumatic that it haunted me for moons. I still get the occasional nightmare from it." he admitted, turning his gaze away from her and looking out among the trees. "I think I'd rather him be dead. because then at least I know he didn't just abandon his family and his clan like so fox-hearted coward." the tom hissed, growing angry again.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Robinflight gave a respectful cheer at the announcement of the new deputy. He watched as the she-cat accepted her new position. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see a hint of envy on Maplestrike's face. Without saying a word, the tom leaned over and rested his chin on top of her head. His eyes blinked slowly, feeling a different emotion towards Maplestrike than he had this morning. As his gaze shifted upward, he noticed something moving near the camp entrance. The scent was unfamiliar and very unpleasant. Robinflight's fur rose. "Who is that?" He hissed quietly, tail lashing violently behind him.

Her gaze softened slightly as Wrentalon moved over to her brother, watching them interact for a moment for her new deputy rejoined her. She nodded slowly "I'm sure you will. Though I feel you already know who it will be hardest to prove yourself to." she thought it might be Bearpaw and Eaglefrost though she believed some of the clan may give them a run for their mice. She watched him for a few more moments quietly trying to figure him out. She believed him.. Well enough at least. She knew he would try though she couldn't say she trusted he would never be tempted out again. The tip of her tail twitched, she had someone she could assign him to.. Though she was unsure if that would actually help or make the situation worse.. She was pulled from her thoughts as Flamecry interrupted them. Her ears pricked "Could you please get them out of camp?" she asked frowning now. "I've had enough of loners barging in for one day." she glanced towards Wrentalon "Patrols didn't go.. as smoothly.. As I would have liked while I was busy with Leap. So perhaps we should start sending out two border patrols a day at least until we get our borders a little more secure. I don't like how close everyone is getting to us." in that moment she was right back in leader mode, it was as if Lionfang and Flamecry weren't even there, Only Wrentalon.

Swiftleap flinched in surprise when Tigerpool went flying into the water. Eyes wide for a moment before she splashed at him. He laughed and leapt into the water after her. He swam around her and came up behind her splashing at her like she'd done at him "Yeah seems pretty good to me!" he said grinning slightly. Swiftleap loved to swim but rarely got to do so as his brother was.. Less than fond of swimming and his sister seemed to always be busy now.

He chuckled, nuzzling her "I'm too good?" he echoed. "I think you're the one whose mistaken Nightleaf." he purred. "What could I have possibly done to deserve you?" he asked purring happily. "I felt like the luckiest tom in the whole camp when I got assigned to you.. I was worried with so many cats.. That I wouldn't be lucky and i'd have to watch you with someone else.." he admitted glancing away sheepishly. He gave his chest a few embarrassed licks before he looked at her again.
