Weather:
Leaf-fall- The air has a slight nip to it, easily finding its way inside dens, so make sure to repair your dens and patch any cracks. The twolegs and their dogs won't come into the Clan territories as often as they do in greenleaf, but you will still see them from time to time. Foxes and badgers are now more commonly found, so be careful. Kitting will start to become harder during this time.

aura. wrote:"may all cats old enough to climb raven's peak gather beneath the high ledge for a meeting." frecklestar declared, muscles rippling under her calico pelage as she steadily gained ground. above the camp, she could peer down at her clan-mates. all their guilt and hidden secrets were exposed; she could see right through them. the wind whipped her fur as salty sea water crashed against both the high ledge, the clearing's cliff side, and the rocky path.
splitpaw glanced at her questionable, as if wondering if she should join by frecklestar's side, but the founder shook her head and beckoned to the clearing. acciapaw followed frecklestar's kit presently, and the tortoiseshell leader flicked her ear irritably. she turned her attention to the four newest members, smaug, minty, conch and novacaine, who unlike quil, dragon, and diamond, had expressed their want for a warrior name. minty settled by smaug, her companion and bestfriend, closely followed by novacaine who felt most comfortable by smaug, who was of the same exotic, hairless breed. quil, nearly always in a daze, was lead by conch who gently allowed the unique mercenary to curl up by her side. conch began to groom her steadily, and the queen's purrs seemed to travel to the top of high ledge. frecklestar let a small sigh of relief out; her clan still took care of each other. dragon and mothshine expressed bewildered glances with each other as they looked at the dazed aquilegia, but shook their pelt out and looked away as conch shot an indignant glare at them. hemlockbud, conch's daughter, lay next to quil and began to ask how her treatment- the one that sorrelberry was hoping would help her regain her attention and focus- was going. vaporfish, rowanstrike, and skydance shared tongues with each other near the mouth of the cave that lead to the camp, keeping a watchful eye on the bouncy corykit, ebonykit, flamekit, and iriskit. their mothers, silverheart, maplestep, and camberflight stood restlessly, unable to trust the four miscreants on their own. sweetbriar, an experienced permanent birther, mrrowed in amusement and settled next to the stressful birthers. the initiates snickered to themselves, only finchpaw pardoning himself from the group, sitting next to dragon and mothshine. frecklestar, seeing everyone gathered and nicely cozied, cleared her throat and began her announcement.
"i would like to welcome minty, smaug, conch, and novacaine formally into drizzleclan by announcing their true mercenary names. aquilegia, dragon and diamond have requested that their names remain the same and i will respect their choice but also acknowledge them as full members of drizzleclan." as the clan cheered, she leveled her voice over them. "minty, your mercenary name shall be mintynose for your sharp nose and intelligence. smaug, your mercenary name will be siskingaze, for your hawk-like gaze and green eyes. in acknowledgement of your fierce loyalty and gentle spirit, conch, your mercenary name will be magnoliarose. novacaine, for your startling colorful pelage and high leap, i name you novasky. welcome, as full members of drizzleclan!"
"magnoliarose, mintynose, siskingaze, novasky!"

"come on, pumpkinpaw. it's just a bit of fun." shadowpaw encouraged his brother, irritation causing him to roll his eyes. "besides, all the other apprentices are doing it too." without waiting for his littermate's response, he bounded ahead, leading the way up the windy raven's peak. galepaw, cinnamonpaw, adderpaw, arumpaw, and luxxpaw all trailed behind; cinnamon looked terrified, but arumpaw was exhilarated, her blue eyes shining with adrenaline. adder, luxx, and gale were uneasy and stiff. finchpaw had decided to stay behind, insisting that cliff diving was littlie-play, but shadow thought it was just because the tom was scared of getting in trouble. the cliff jump landed safely in the ocean, a short swim away from the hole in the cavern that made it easy to get in of the camp undetected. today, the tide was high and the waves covered the rocks and made a safe passage to the hole in the caverns: it was a perfect day to jump. shadowpaw had been the one to implicate it, convince all the others that it was perfectly safe and that hemlockbud herself had done it. just as they were about to reach the apex of raven's peak, a familiar voice sounded behind them.
"where are you guys going?" splitpaw hollered, bounding over to them, panting hard. she had obviously run a long way to catch up to them. shadowpaw tried not to flinch away from her split ear and scared muzzle, but he noticed that the other apprentices shied away their glances and refused to meet her eye.
"er, no where you can go. i would head back." shadowpaw said, somewhat loudly, as if she could be so easily deterred.
"you'll just tell your mom what we're up to, and ruin all the fun." arumpaw added, her silky fur rippling with apprehension.
"if you don't let me go, i will tell my mom you're sneaking out and doing something you're not supposed to be." splitpaw meowed sternly, glancing at them unamused. "and anyways, i'm the most senior of all of you. i'm the heir."
"whatever, smartears. just keep up." arum snapped back, pushing ahead of the initiates and taking the lead. shadowpaw followed in suit, guiltily shooting glances at splitpaw. when they got to the peak, the initiates stopped, breathless.
"alright, so whose going first?" arumpaw asked, her ears twitching slightly. gale shook her head, while pumpkin gave a pitiful whimper and backed away. luxx rolled his eyes but shrugged, as if he was indifferent. the others waited for the first one to jump. arum sighed loudly before extending her forepaws out and bending her spine to leap off the cliff at maximum speed. shadow, enthused by arum's adrenaline, gave one glance at the others, before making a running start and leaping off the cliff. the others peered over as he made a splash, the ocean swallowing him whole. they all held their breath before he popped back up and began swimming to the hole in the cavern, barely visibly from this height. arumpaw had already made it to the hole, waving her tail at the others peering.
"you guys are insane." splitpaw meowed, then shrugged and stretched off the cliff, allowing the ocean to consume her.

"vaporfish has to be the father. i think he's in love with her, following her around like he's a littlie." camberflight suggested, glancing at sweetbriar pointedly. the long hair lilac calico, as she never did, refused to be bested by camber's evening gossip.
"haven't you noticed how often she sneaks out, and how she always washes profusely? then all the sudden she's pregnant? that has got to be a tom across the border. besides, do you see tortoiseshell clambering all over vaporfish? obviously the feelings are not mutual." sweetbriar allowed it to sink in before she began to draw her tongue across her paw, washing thoroughly.
"it is awfully convenient she refuses to say who the father is." maplestep commented, half asleep. she was watching corykit through a half closed eye, worry flooding through her. "but i don't think we can say much, your ebonykit is half-clan, and so is my corykit. it's not exactly original to have a mate from another clan. do you honestly think the one starclan intended for you happens to be in the same clan, same part of the world, and same sex?"
"maple, are you saying you think two she-cats could fall in love?" silverheart input, suddenly interested in the conversation. "i did find this molly particularly cute once..." she trailed off.
"i think so, i mean, just look at magnoliarose and aquilegia. they could be so cute, don't you think?" maple meowed, still partially unconscious. she stretched her white paws forward, yawning so that her white incisors glinted under the rays of the sun.
"no way, quil is totally in love with strawberrypatch. i know she's from echoclan, but quil is always talking about her! it's as if the warrior code doesn't even exist to her. poor sap is so messed up..." sweetbriar murmured, her gaze warm. "i hope sorrelberry's treatment works."
"what are you guys talking about?" tortoisecreek head poked through the entrance of the cave, her swollen belly swaying side to side as she squeezed into the crowded den.
"she-cats being mates together, and who your kit-father is." sweetbriar said bluntly, drawing her paws nonchalantly over her whiskers.
"nobody." she muttered, curling up in a ball so tight that the only thing that stuck out was her large belly.
"is it vaporfish?" camberflight gushed, desperate for any news on the latest drizzleclan scandal.
"yeah, sure. it's vaporfish." tortie meowed. "it's vaporfish." she reaffirmed, before she was snoring, peacefully sleeping, away the love she felt for duckwater, away from the grief she felt while being apart from him...
-
"are you, like, um, done with me yet?" aquilegia asked, tilted her head sideways. she noticed that the flowers across her forehead were beginning to wilt and she frowned. "can you make me another crown, please?"
"of course, quil. and yes, just come back for the catmint and thyme later, okay?" sorrelberry murmured, looking at her absently.
"okay, wow, goodbye! got to go see the prettiest molly ever." quil left the den, her long tail swishing against the briny ground. she purred loudly on her way to the border, thrilled to see the ginger she-cat again. on her way, she noticed a brilliant blue butterfly and breathed, "wow", before beginning to follow it. it circled around her head briefly, landing on her ear; somehow sensing that aquilegia would not hurt it. "wow. i wish i was as pretty as you." she whispered to the butterfly, spooking it. as it flitted away again, she glanced back up and realized that in her distraction she had gotten lost. "hm." she said, shrugging and rolling on her back. she put her paws in the air, and traced the clouds with her claw. other butterflies looped around her, and she let a lopsided smile spread across her muzzle. "what it would be like to fly."
"get lost looking for me, did you quil?" a sweet, serenade entered quil's lobes and leaned her head back so that she could see strawberry approach.
"oh hello. yes, i guess i did get lost." she murmured thoughtfully, still staring at the ginger and white she-cat with her intense, blue gaze. strawberry purred and delicately picked her way over to the ragdoll, and curling up at quil's side. soft fur reached downy fur and their breathing became in sync as they slowly fell asleep together in the field of butterflies; each wondering whether to admit the true feelings that they felt.
-
the end was near. the sharp canine's teeth ripped into her flesh, and she felt her body go numb. she was a ragdoll, a toy, a mere meal in the jaws of this beast. but silver had died for one cause: to lead the dogs away from the kits. away from her precious flamekit, who would be so heartbroken when he discovered his adopted mother was dead.
mothshine was cornered, but she fought like all of lionclan. she reared up on the horrific beast, slashing claws and aiming at eyes. but where one dog retreated to recover, another took it's place. nothing could save the lionclan mothshine: not even starclan. her ancestors watched horrifically, stunned into absolute silence. the stars did not shine that night.
adderpaw and pumpkinpaw were brave to the end, but the adolescents were picked off like bits of crowfood. somewhere in the stars, mothers cried for the loss of young.
fumitoryglow's wounds were too severe, but sorrel was not going to allow that to stop him from attempting to heal him. but they were discovered in their hiding place among thistles, and were torn apart, sorrel with no battle experience, and fumitory; too weak to put up anymore of a fight. they awoke among the starry ranks of starclan.

Simonpet wrote:"Do you promise to uphold the Warrior Code, even if it means sacrificing your life?"
"We do," promised Dawnpaw and Neritepaw. They glanced at each other and grinned briefly.
"Then," continued Birchnose, who had been asked to do the ceremony in place of Honeystar. "I name you Dawnface and Neritestream. Dawnface; your enthusiasm and dedication will take you far. Neritestream; your kindness and steadfastness is smiled upon by Starclan. May you live good lives of peace," she concluded.
Seconds later, a chant started. "Dawnface! Neritestream! Dawnface! Neritestream!"

Palefur smiled and nuzzled his mate, Mila. She purred in return. The two stayed like that for a while before Palefur broke the silence. "I know we always wanted kits, but I've never been quite sure when's the right time."
Mila broke away and nodded, looking at Palefur. "And with all this tragedy..." She was, of course, referring to the illness although it now seemed to be contained to the medicine cats' den. It was a miracle, they said, that Dustleaf was still healthy. "But perhaps the time is now."
"Are you sure?"
"As sure as the day we became mates."

"You knew my brother, yeah?" asked Gulltail.
Dandeliontail suppressed a sigh. Ever since Gulltail had come into the clan, it felt as though she had done nothing but ask questions. He had mentioned this to Briarwhisker, who had simply laughed and said that Dawnstorm's spirit must reside in the molly, as Dawnstorm had been worse when he had first come into the clan. "Kind of. You'd be better off asking Palefur, as they were closer together."
"Who's Palefur again?"
"The mostly white shorthaired tom with blue eyes."
"Oh. Him." Gulltail looked thoughtful, and Dandeliontail felt a pang of pain. At least he had known Dawnstorm. Gulltail had barely known Egretstep before they had separated.

"It's strange," commented Reedfur to Gingerstorm. "I always hoped to see my birth mother again and this is quite the way to grant my wish."
"Starclan works in mysterious ways," replied Gingerstorm distractedly. "Is Forestclan to your taste?"

thank my lucky stars wrote:ghost watched his clan fondly, laying in the warm patch of sunlight. mask and mage seemed to be getting along nicely, valiant pressed to his sisters side as always.
"feeling warm and fuzzy, captain?" pinpoint asked him, laying next to him on his right side as if he'd been there all along.
"something like that." he agreed with a smile, nuzzling closer to the other tom. ghost was a very tactile cat, and it seemed the others were as well. they didn't object at the very least, and now their scents were so intertwined it would be difficult to set them apart by nose alone.
"pah. you loooove us." pinpoint teased, stretching his front paws in front of him. pinpoint had been very wary of ghost and his clan at first, but after having a few meetings with the clan, finally warmed up to him. now it was like ghost had an older brother.
"i do." he said easily, and pinpoint nudged his shoulder. "i am worried about how little prey we have." he admitted, and pinpoint purred to comfort him, pressing close to his side.
"i'll bring the wonder duo out on a hunting patrol, if it helps. you and mask could have camp to yourselves." he said suggestively, and ghost shook his head in amusement.
"it's not like that and you know it, don't try it with me. if you want to get to know her like that, do it yourself." he said, half amused and half in warning. "you aren't subtle about fishing for information. work on that with mask, after you take mage and valiant out to catch some prey." he said, and pinpoint grinned at him.
"you're the captain." and with that, he walked towards the littermates, and they bounded out of camp together.
mask walked towards him, eyeing him in amusement. "are you going to lay there all day?" she asked, and he groaned in response.
"mask, this is the only warm spot left. i don't ever wanna move until greenleaf." mask snorted and poked his belly with her paw.
"up and at them captain, while those amateurs hunt, we're the lucky ones who get to patrol the borders." she said, and he sighed.
"since i'm captain, shouldn't i be giving orders?" he asked petulantly, but got up on his paws. his close friendship with mask was the biggest surprise in his new clan. he knew her name was mask for a reason and never underestimated her, but he liked to think that their friendship was genuine.
"not when you're as lazy as a pile of bones." she purred, and he glared at her playfully. "come on, sooner we get this over with, sooner you can come back to your sunpatch."

lame loser lexi. wrote:Flameskip thought of the four apprentices he had to send out for their Long Hunt. 'Waveclan's first Long Hunt ever...' He thought, proud he was the one to organize it. Right away, he thought of putting Bearpaw and Vanillapaw for the first group, then Splatterpaw and Rosepaw together for the second. He knew they were both strong teams, easy to get along with each other. However, the deputy wanted to make sure he wouldn't mess this up.
He trotted over to the medicine cat's den, knowing that Blackstop was quite the opposite of him. While he was outgoing and chatty, Blackspot was blunt and cynical of others. 'Different view always helps.' With a small nod, he spoke up to the two medicine cats arranging herbs. "Blackspot! Hello! Quite roomy in here, ey?" Flameskip said, smilling.
"What do you want, suck up?" The white and black tom questioned, not turning to face him. However, Coralpaw quickly dipped her head to the deputy, trying to make up for the lack of respect from her mentor.
"Okay, down to buisness! That's cool." Flameskip said, taking a breath to collect his thoughts. "The Long Hunt. What do you think of these groups? Bearpaw and Vanillapaw then Splatterpaw and Rosepaw." He questioned.
"No. Those are terrible." The medicine cat said.
"What?? How, they all would get along!" The deputy complained. However, he noticed that the apprentice seemed to be confused with all this, so she simply went back to organizing.
"Exactly. Vanillapaw and Bearpaw would get along too well. I don't want them to come back with a young pregnant she-cat." Blackspot said. "Splatterpaw and Rosepaw are okay with each other, but the other doesn't work." He said.
"Then what should I do!" He complained, obviously ticked that his idea wouldn't work. "Rosepaw hates Bearpaw, Vanillapaw doesn't like Rosepaw or Splatterpaw, then she likes Bearpaw all too much! Splatterpaw is fine with anyone, but he's strongest with Rosepaw." Flameskip rambled, going on and on.
"Screw their apprentice drama, they're going to be warriors. They need to get over it." He said. "Set them up to fail. Bearpaw with Rosepaw, Vanillapaw with Splatterpaw. If they're really warriors, they'll settle the differences." Blackspot said, annoyed with Flameskip already.
"YOU'RE A GENIUS!" He shouted, darting out to bring the plan to Blazestar for the announcement.

xxxxThe grey tom’s head whipped around to look at Boulderdash from where she continued to rest within the nursery, six – six – kits around her. Well, around her in the loosest sense. They’d reached the stage of being willing to sleep on their own already, and the stage of “ignoring when mum says it’s bed time” long before that.
xxxxBut it was Zinniakit instead.
xxxx"I’m gonna be medicine cat and I’m gonna be an amazin’ apprentice.”
xxxxAnd predictably, Teaselkit glowered at his sister. How had they both kept insisting?
xxxxHe’d been a kitty-pet when he’d joined his old clan, and he’d instantly wanted to be a medicine cat as soon as he’d found out there was a role that didn’t need him to be a good fighter. No one had told him about the repercussions of that decision. Surely one of his kits would change their mind if they knew?
xxxx"Only if Heronstar chooses you to be.” Harrierpelt turned his head back to his mate. “Do you mind if I have a quick word with you, Boulderdash?”
xxxxBoulderdash looked back at her kits (and Squirrelkit) a moment with concern in her eyes before nodding – they were big enough to hopefully not murder each other within a few moments. She stepped into the medicine cat den after her mate, feeling the cold of the strange black-and-white squares beneath her paw pads.
xxxxHarrierpelt took a deep breath to brace himself for what he had to say.
xxxx"We need to discourage one of them. I can only have one apprentice at once, and by the time that one has finished their training so the other can start, they’ll be moons behind, and constantly jealous the rest of their life. At the very least, we need to do something that definitively proves one as unsuitable for the role of medicine cat.”
