A New Hope ☀ Warriors RP ☀ Not Accepting

[Cradily]

OakClan

Splashpaw shrugged in response to Bearpaw's question about their warrior names. "Not sure. I'm sure I'll like whatever it is, though. Besides, I think it's more fun when it's a surprise." Turning to Quiverpaw, she nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it'll take some getting used to for sure, but I'm sure we'll both adapt in time." Almost as soon as the gathering had started, it had ended, and it was time to rejoin their own clanmates and get back to camp. "It was nice meeting you both," she said with a purr, nodding at Darkpaw and Quiverpaw. "I hope I see you next gathering," she told Quiverpaw with a gentle smile. "And hopefully by then we'll both have our warrior names!" Giving the she-cat a friendly tail flick, she turned to Weaselstripe. "I'm coming, I'm coming." Even though she would miss sharing a den with and training alongside the other apprentices, she would be glad when the day came for her to finally be a warrior and be treated like a grown, respected member of the clan. She was only a few moons younger than Weaselstripe, after all, and didn't exactly like being lumped in with all the younger, rowdy apprentices.

Tigerblaze waved his tail to Swiftbadger, still a bit confused as to what the EagleClan tom's intentions were, before turning to his deputy. "I'm ready when you are." He saw Jackdawpaw out of the corner of his eye, a short distance from him and Blizzardclaw, and beckoned the apprentice closer with his tail.

EagleClan

"Yes, let's." Southstar nodded to his deputy. "EagleClan, move out!" He raised his tail as he moved through the crowd, signaling for any EagleClan cats to follow him before he stopped at the edge of the gathering area. Once he'd checked behind him to make sure all were accounted for, he began to lead the way out into the forest.

"Me and Swiftbadger?" Littleflower echoed, taken aback. She blinked in surprise at first, then started to laugh. "Oh, no, we're just friends." But the words hung heavily in her mind, and she felt there was more to their friendship than that. Surely there relationship was more complex than 'just friends,' right? "He's like, well...like a brother to me," she added. Yes, that must be it. She had never had a brother or a chance to get to know her sisters, but she was sure if she had, that was what they would feel like. "Don't worry, she said, smiling comfortingly at her clanmate. "I'm sure you'll find a mate one day, if that's what you're looking for. And until then, you have me and all the rest of your clanmates." She gave the she-cat a friendly lick on the ear before rising to her paws when she heard Southstar's call. "Come on, we should get going."

Darkpaw was surprised to feel almost a little...disappointed, when the gathering came to an end. He had never really liked to socialize very much at gatherings, but he'd wanted to get to know Jackdawpaw a little bit more. He seemed like his kind of cat. "You, too," he said, nodding to the apprentices as the split off to join their clanmates. With a sigh, he went off to go find his own, and spotted Goldenrose bidding goodbye to a couple of OakClan warriors. He joined her side silently.

Goldenrose
She looked at the young apprentice. "Did you have fun Darkpaw?" She asked. She kept near the rear of the group. She saw her brother bounding up towards the front of the pack.

"Good," the deputy nodded once before he had spotted Jackdawpaw and nods once to him. His ear flicked once as he had heard his son try to round up the apprentices and shook his head as he noticed the apprentices ignoring him. "Oakclan it's time for us to go, let's move out," he called out in his louder voice as he headed towards the exit.

Weaselstripe sighed out once as the apprentices mostly ignored him, he couldn't blame them anyway he was a newer warrior and he had trained with nearly all the apprentices. He had only been a warrior for a bit over a moon and it felt like he hadn't quite earned their respect. He as hoping it was only a matter of time.
When he saw Dappleleaf who had left Foxcloud, he let out a sigh. "How'd you get us to listen to you after you became a warrior?" he asked his friend, nuzzling her once before leading them towards their exit to go back to their camp.

Mistflower laughed quietly and shook her head once. "I don't know if you are just friends, seems like the two of you spend a lot of time together for just friends," she told her friend before slowly getting up from the ground. She nuzzled into Littleflower some, keeping close to the she-cat contently as they walked over to Southstar. "Thanks I'm sure you will too even if you may have already found him," she teased her.

Foxcloud purred and nodded her head happily to Dappleleaf, licking her once in return. She waved bye to her before she had gone over to Southstar, following behind him eagerly. Perhaps she could try to enjoy more of her time now with the tom, feeling like the journey back to camp wasn't as organized. She padded up to the leader, quickly falling step in step with him. "Do you ever miss getting to really enjoy the gatherings like how you did while you were deputy?" She asked him softly. She enjoyed their small flirting earlier before the gathering had started which she had been upset that it had been cut short.

⩤ Stagleap ⩥ 13 moons | She-cat | Warrior of Eagleclan | Apprentice: None | Crush: Open | Tags: Quiverpaw | Mentions:

Stagleap followed after the patrol back to camp, smiling as she saw Quiverpaw. "Did you enjoy yourself in your first gathering?" She asked her former denmate. She knew she would miss spending time with her while they would be separated until her friend did become a warrior which she didn't see it taking much longer for her to become one.

After saying goodbye to her EagleClan friends, Elmshade stood up and started padding after Blizzardclaw as he called for everyone to leave. She yawned, the long day finally getting to her. Even her nap earlier wasn't so helpful, and the night had a bit of a chill to it. She was looking forward to getting back to camp and into her nice, warm nest.

"When darkness comes on jackdaws wings, the day's golden light will fall." His mentor's words echoed in Robinwind's head as he was awoken from his dream. It was still late, the moon still high in the sky. Surely the prophecy could wait until morning, and let everyone have just a little bit of peace in camp, right? The medicine cat yawned and tucked his nose back under his leg, curling up into his moss nest and going back to sleep.

D a p p l e l e a f ' s whiskers twitched with amusement. "I didn't," she told him, humor glinting in her green eyes. "I knew better than to try to wrangle a group of apprentices right out of the den myself - except for you. You would do whatever I said, anyway, even when we were just apprentices together!" A purr rumbled in her throat as she recalled the times they had shared together, even though they had only trained together for a couple of moons.

J a c k d a w p a w trotted forward, dipping his head to Blizzardclaw as he did. "Nobody said anything," he said quietly to his mentor. He glanced over at the EagleClan cats - they were clearing out, heading towards their own territory. Jackdawpaw was pleased - the Gathering had gone well, and no cat seemed to question Blizzardclaw's authority, or made a fuss about why Beestar wasn't there. That would have been mouse-brained of them, anyway, he thought. They knew Beestar was pregnant with kits, they saw her last moon!

S w i f t b a d g e r had to stifle a yawn as Southstar gathered his cats, ready to leave. Swiftbadger wasted no time in padding up to Littleflower and Mistflower. The tom flicked his tail in greeting to both of them. "I don't know about you two, but I'm exhausted. I can't wait to get back to my nest and sleep until sun-high!"

" I hope so," Quiverpaw agreed, purring a short goodbye to her new friend. With her head high, Quiverpaw trotted towards the EagleClan cats. She had seen little of them, save Daydream, since she had gone with Bearpaw off to the other apprentices. Now, the queen's nervousness faded even more as she rejoined the familiar cats. Pride filled her chest - she had done it. Her first Gathering had not only gone well, she had made friends with the OakClan apprentices, particularly Splashpaw! Quiverpaw couldn't be more pleased, and was eager to tell her father and mentor about it.
Stagleap spoke to her, drawing her back to reality. Quiverpaw dipped her head with a small purr rumbling up from her throat. "I did," she said, smiling warmly at her former denmate. "Things will be lonely without you...but again, congratulations! Do you think that Southstar will have you start your vigil when we get back?"

D e e r t a i l spotted Reedwhisker trotted off on his own, looking dejected. What's under his fur? Moving into a sitting position, he watched the warrior exit camp. Moving to his paws, the tom trotted after him. "Hey, Reedwhisker!" he finally called out, catching up with the other tom at the stream he'd come to: the border between the Clans. "What are you doing all the way out here, huh?" he asked gently, sitting down near him and wrapping his tail around his paws. "Not thinking of running off into OakClan territory, are you?"

"It's a bit nervewracking to 'just talk'". he meowed with a nervous tone in his voice. "I'm not the best at it. At least sticking with you is a bit easier." he sighed. Once they were told it was time to leave he stood up alongside the other feline.

Weaselstripe sighed once and slowly nodded his head. "I suppose you're right about that. I always did listen to you but that's because the two of us are friends," he nodded a bit. However he knew that wasn't always just the case, she was more than that to him but he wasn't ready to settle down yet. There wasn't a reason to rush into anything, they liked each other a lot but they were young and had plenty of time. Besides he knew Dappleleaf was quite into her duties. But also now there was another reason, Destiny. The loner she-cat that he couldn't get out of his head.

However she quickly stopped teasing Littleflower as Swiftbadger had joined them as they walked with the patrol. "Yes I'm a bit tired myself but I will still wake up on time and train Quiverpaw," she nods. It was the responsible thing however maybe she would let her sleep in a bit compared to normal.

"Yeah most likely, Streamspots mentioned that's probably what will happen when we get back. I'm not looking forward to it. That and not having you beside me but I know you'll be with me in there soon enough," She purred at her friend.

Elmshade looked over at Lostnight and shrugged as they walked. "Hey, I think you're pretty good to talk to! But if hanging out with me is easier, that's okay! I like to spend time with you." She purred. She didn't mind if Lostnight was nervous, even if she rarely got nervous, she really did enjoy his company.

OakClan

Tigerblaze gave his apprentice an approving nod as he followed Blizzardclaw. "Good," he replied quietly. "I knew I could trust you." It was hard to completely place his faith in an apprentice, even his own--although he did trust Jackdawpaw more than the others. But he knew from experience that expressing his trust would place more pressure on the apprentice to actually earn and keep his trust. He knew Jackdawpaw wasn't the kind to let down another, if he could do anything about it.

EagleClan

Darkpaw simply shrugged. He didn't know if he'd call it fun, but he had enjoyed this gathering a bit more than the last ones he'd been to. "It was okay. What about you?"

Littleflower just rolled her eyes and gave her friend a playful shove. "Thanks, but I haven't even started looking yet. I don't think I could find what I'm not looking for--" She cut off abruptly as Swiftbadger joined them, hoping he hadn't heard their conversation. "Yeah, me too," she agreed quickly. "You're always so responsible," she told Mistflower with an amused purr. "I guess I better enjoy my apprentice-free days while they last, before I have to be as responsible as you!"

Southstar twitched his ears when Foxcloud joined him. "Sometimes," he admitted. "I don't get to socialize with the OakClan cats as much, but every now and then I'll chat a few up before or after the gathering. I still enjoy them, just in a different way." He flicked her flank with his tail, his tone smooth as silk as he added, "Besides, I've got all I need right here in EagleClan."

Goldenrose
She purred," I got to see my oak clan friends so it was good." She smiled. "Elmshade and I relate to each other very well. Our brothers are medicine cats," she said, "we feel a little closer because of it. It's different."
