res w/they're trapped in the past (mentally) they made mistakes and are struggling to forgive themselves for it. a queen who lost her kits due to the invasion of the clan, the kits were taken and killed as a "hey do this or else" threat - she believes she could have done more

prompt: (600 word max)

name meaning: (ripple;careful, quiet - song; kind, good natured)
all of the cats in flightclan have names relating to birds on a level, and ripplesong is no different with her suffix relating to a birds song. Which is seen as a pleasant thing for the majority of the time. And she's seen as a pleasant cat to be around.

    username: dimi.
    cat name: Carys
    gender: Female
    age: 40 moons
    clan: Silvercrest Roamers
    rank: Trooper

    prompt:
    [note [this is my extra]: General Atmosphere
    "I'll be back soon," I whispered to Tempest, her eyes piercing through me and flickering with curiosity.

    "I'm still rather.. concerned about where you are going. Care to elaborate?"

    "No. I will be back." I retorted swiftly. I hated being held by restraints, and that was all that damn tortoiseshell had done since I had joined the pack; held me back.

    I turned over my shoulder, and made my way down the side of the mountain, howling winds brushing against my pelt and tangling individual strands of fur together. My eyes remained narrow in a desperate attempt to fight against the wind, water pooling at the base of my eyes. I took one bountiful leap, landing at the base of the mountain with a sigh of relief.

    I then dove into a forest just a few meters ahead, walking with my ears pricked forward and my claws unsheathed. I glanced around for nocturnal threats, eventually finding myself before a grand oak tree.

    "Come out. There is no one around." I whispered, curling my lip inward to muffle the strain of reluctance in my voice.

    A she-cat, who looked nearly identical to me phased out from within the tree, a soft red aura glowing around her, her sclera black.

    "Ah, my dearest Carys... My, how you've grown."

    "Yes, yes, mother. You say that anytime I come around after doing your bidding." I spat back with a ferocious eye roll.

    "Yet you can't fight me off." She retorted with a shrug, her tail brushing over my shoulder.

    "Has Kei been dealt with?" She asked me. I had been told to kill Kei, or at least get her out of the picture; as a way to get back at Amberstar for taking my mother's life through a contract.

    "No." I replied meekly, my eyes staring through the abyss of hatred that was my mother.

    "Did you dare defy me?" My mother asked, her tone laced with agitation.

    "I am sick of being held back." I said, my eyes raising up to meet hers, flickering with a raging fire of hatred. "You are making me carry out your will all because you're angry that someone killed you for a justified reason!"

    "Justified reason?!" My mother scoffed. "You don't possibly-"

    "Even if my dad was scum, he told me the truth, how you appealed to him!" I interrupted her.

    I had been told the tale. How my mother slaughtered a patrol of apprentices and young warriors just to impress the pathetic tom that was my father. She had a target placed on her back for this, a target that got her killed by one of Amberstar's assassins.

    "You had everything that was coming! I'm not your pet!" I lunged forward, parting my maw to bite into the mist of my mother's figure, watching as it faded away in a flurry of smoke from between my sharp teeth.

    -----

    I awakened from my dream, laying by a pool illuminating of blue light, isolated from my pack mates in an abandoned forest. I slowly sat up, my body quivering. I looked into the pool, taking in a sharp breath as tears pooled in my eyes.

    "You okay?" Heron asked, standing beside me.

    "Yeah, I'm fine. You can head back, I have some.. thinking to do." I said. He nodded his head, slowly turning. Once I was alone, I turned to the pool, whispering softly.

    "I just want to be free from you, mother. Rest in peace, please..."

I have quit this game as of September 15th, 2022 and will only be around on December 18th for pets to sell.

Please contact me on Flightrising should I have any adoptables floating around you would like to purchase for C$ should a species TOS allow it. You may message here, but chances are I won't see it for a while.

username: Thunder.Collects
cat name: Birdpaw (Birdblossom)
gender: Female
age: 9 Moons
clan: CreekClan
rank: Apprentice

prompt: (321 Words)
While most cats get trapped by sudden feelings of loneliness or sadness or even get physically trapped by a disability or a tough situation, Birdpaw is a little different. She feels as if she is constantly forced to prove herself due to her unusually small body type and unfortunate weakness in her muscles. The young she-cat has been training to become a warrior ever since she joined CreekClan, though her clanmates and father, Blueshadow, encourage her to become a medicine cat instead due to her shortcomings.

Due to these constant words of criticism and doubt, she gets from fellow members, she can't help but feel like she doesn't have potential and is in a constant state of determination. She wants to prove herself to everyone else, no matter the cost. She trains twice as hard and twice as long and constantly turns down approval, thinking if she gets constant compliments she will grow weaker.

However, even with all the doubt shadowing her she does have a few supporters. For one, she has her mother, Koiberry. Koiberry understands being doubted, as she was during her reign as clan deputy with CreekClan's previous leader, Harestar. She tells Birdpaw to never give up, even if the ones she loves doubt her. She also has Hoppaw, CreekClan's current medicine cat apprentice and her best friend.

Hoppaw is constantly scared to the point he barely has a moment of relief, and the other apprentices laugh at him for it. His mentor, Snowheart, often tells him to stop being so scared as well, wearing the little tom down. However, the two have each other to rely on, and if they ever need comfort they know they can come to the other. Birdpaw hopes that one day she'll be clan leader and Hoppaw will be her medicine cat, just so they can prove everyone who doubted them wrong. They are strong, both of them, and that won't change.
extra: (400 Words)
A small cat, with her head low, tucked between her shoulders, padded from the group of apprentices who were too busy joking around about her and instead towards the medicine cat's den where she hoped her best friend would be waiting. Birdpaw was used to this life, she was constantly the laughing stock and doubted warrior of her clan, only because of her size. How pathetic was that? The only cats who truly believed in her were Hoppaw and Koiberry anyway.

Birdpaw sighed as she pushed her way into the medicine cat's den, looking around for the familiar brown tom that she had grown to trust. Hoppaw would like to talk surely. "Hoppaw," she called, eyes narrowed as she stared into the dusk, looking for any sign that Hoppaw was there. All that she heard was a grunt and a grumpy she-cat named Snowheart growl, "Your friends here. Go talk to her outside."

Birdpaw chuckled, amusement flooding her heart. Snowheart acted grumpily and mean all the time, but she truly was a sweetheart. They had come to know and trust each other and talked from time to time. Within seconds of Snowheart's remark was Hoppaw finally seen, padding his way up the tunnel with a piece of leaf stuck to his ear. The small she-cat giggled before helping her friend out, knocking the plant away.

"Come on," Hoppaw said, a little embarrassed, before leading the way outside. The group of apprentices was still there, their mentors obviously didn't have much to do with them right now apparently. The two settled in a spot of shade, the darkness provided by an oak tree that leaned forward over the camp. After the two were comfortable did they finally talk again.

"Hello Birdpaw, how's everything today? The same?" Hoppaw asked, giving her a sympathetic frown as she nodded. "Yeah, Tawnypaw and her gang are still acting the same, but what can we expect. Not like they could change anyway."

Hoppaw shrugged, curling his tail over his paws. "I don't know, maybe they could. We changed a lot since we became apprentices, don't you think?"

Birdpaw frowned, looking down at her paws. "I guess, it's just not fair, how they treat us like we're so different compared to them. I just want to be a normal apprentice training to be a good warrior."

Hoppaw sighed, nudging her shoulder. "Remember, being different is very good."

username: Yellow.
cat name: Jayflame
gender: female
age: 60 moons
clan: Ridgeclan
rank: warrior

prompt:
Flick her tail irritably behind her Jayflame watched as the two apprentices in front of her tousled around, her two kits playing off instead of training. Clicking her teeth together the Molly stood from where she sat and slipped out from camp, a figure flanking her side as she disappeared into the underbrush.

“What not proud of our kits?” The tom asked with a laugh as he moved to walk by her side.

“No one is here to hear us Smokefang, we both know they aren’t your kits.” The molly almost snapped back before reining herself back in, this wasn’t a fight she wanted to have with him. Smokefang was the only one who understood her, the only one who realized how chained she felt in the clan.

“Yes but they are still yours and yet you don’t seem to be too interested in them, never have.” He comments lightly, obviously not willing to drop the subject.

Jayflame seemed to ponder the comment before slipping off the path and deeper into the forest, towards the lake at the edge. “The kits may be half mind but all I see in them is Fenris, the kits are a mistake. They are nothing more than straps keeping me in place here in the clan. You know how I feel about them, to much like there father to ever be any good to us.”

Smokefang almost laughed at her words, hearing her talk about the two kits he’d told the clan they were his own since they were born. Kits he’d helped raised and planned to one day use in helping them destroy the clan, but here was Jayflame saying they would be good for nothing, just another thing that dragged her down.

“Well if you think they are chains keeping you here we can get rid of them like the rest of the clan, while I had hoped to use the kits it wouldn’t be hard to let them fall with the others.”

It was Jayflame’s turn to almost laugh at his words, she could care less about destroying the clan as he did, she just wanted to go. “You know I don’t care about your plans to destroy the clan I just want to leave it. I want the chains that tie me to this land to snap.” She growled out the last word, claws digging into the ground.

“You ever going to tell me why you can’t leave the clan? You’re fine with me destroying it because you think that will be what sets you free, but what’s holding you back from just leaving?”

“You know why I had kits with Fenris don’t you?” She asked the tom earning a blank look in response.

“To use them against him, he knows something about what happened to my family and until I can find out I can’t leave the clan. Their death was not an accident like I was told, that I know for sure. And if he doesn’t know the truth someone in the clan does, I can’t leave until I find my truth.” Jayflame growled out while settling down by the lake, looking over shimming mirror.

“So it’s not the clan that’s your chains or the kits, it's your past and your ghosts.”

Did you forget me so soon?
The one who made you,
turned you into this monster?
How sad.

Though I guess it's to be expected,
you always liked to block things out.
If it didn't make sense in your mind,
you just forgot about it.

But maybe it's because I didn't,
make you into a monster that is.
You already were a monster,
weren't you?
