After sitting for a while, she was fully awake. She looked over and knew she could hunt, so she stood to leave. “Maybe I’ll go for a little walk first, then I’ll hunt,” She decided with a nod of her head. It would be nice to relax out in the trees. She promised to stay near the camp though, if she were far away and couldn’t rush back to help if needed she would feel horrible.

She wasn’t sure how long she had been away from home. Part of her felt like it had been moons, but she knew that wasn’t true. As she continued on wearily, she was barely paying attention to where she was going. She had never used this much energy before. “I just need to rest a little, then I’ll be fine,” She drug herself to a particularly large tree and slumped against it, exhaustion seeping through her. The fact that she was completely alone in this strange place didn’t bother her. Although she knew it might be impossible to find her way home, she was too tired to think about it. “Maybe just a small nap…” She murmured, before closing her eyes and slowly drifting off to sleep.

She came back from her short hunting trip. The embarrassment from waking up so late had subsided and she padded into the camp, carrying a mouthful of prey. She dropped it in the freshkill pile and turned to see Hemlockhaze near the edge of the camp. She went over and sat down quietly next to him. “Morning! What are you doing all by yourself over here? Did Hawkeclaw give you a break from going out on patrol?” She asked quietly, not able to get a read on how he was feeling. She didn’t want to overstep and make him upset.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
While his siblings bustled about, Owlkit's own interest was directed away from them. No, he'd rather pace the furthest corner of the nursery and watch as some of the first little bugs of the season wandered about. Several beetles rise from the damp, dewy earth beneath the leaves. A few ants work to map out the changes of their old paths in the morning chill. It's simple things like that that he tends to enjoy observing. So wrapped up in his wonder, he didn't even notice his siblings all buzzing around him - not a word from their mouths made it to his ears. Instead, he watched the insects, hard at work, and wondered, Will I be as busy as these beetles tomorrow?

There's a clear disturbance in the soft, dusty earth where his kinked tail has been waving against it all morning. Not until his tail sways enough to kick dust into his face does he finally move. His own sneeze startles him! And only then does he realize there's much more light penetrating the den's overgrowth now than there was when he first woke. The tiny tom's dark ears flatten, hot with embarrassment, as he finally slinks out of his corner. He slips past the nest he's so used to, a slight frown tugging at his maw.
"Am I really only gonna sleep there for one more night..?" he murmurs softly to himself, slinking beyond the comforting scent of their nest and to the entrance of the den. The sun's rays warm his lilac pelt just a bit as he stares out at the rest of the camp. He isn't so sure he's ready to move on and sleep in a whole new den, away from the protection and warmth of his mother.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Keeping to himself for the morning, given he wasn't assigned any patrol, Mossfall sits at a far corner of the camp. They've yet to pick off anything from the fresh-kill pile for their first meal of today. That being said, they'd rather wait until they were sure others had full bellies.

Instead, he sits alone, lapping at a spot on his flank that is far from dirty for much too long. Only when he comes away with a mouthful of his own fur does he realize he's overgrooming, staring dumbfounded at the thinning patch on his side. He spits the ball of fluff out. Hoping no one else noticed, he curls his feathery tail a bit further in hopes he can hide the embarrassing thin patch.

Muffin

loner - female - 10 moons - tags open

Muffin stretched as well as she could in the small bramble bush that had become her home. The light travelled through the branches and fell against the young she-cats fur. Before her day had to begin she turned and began pulling out the leaves and petals in her tail that had begin to brown and die.
With a deep breath Muffin pushed her way through the small hole in the bush, ignoring the few brambles that tugged against her long fur. She blinked a little as the light hit her eyes before taking a deep breath and smiling, today was another day and maybe today would bring new friends. But friends would have to wait, the rumbling in her tummy brought another need to the front of her mind.

Almondstar |( 6/9 lives) | female | leader | tags: Dappleleaf

She listened to the medicine cat, her ears flicking back and forward, she was not exactly happy about the answer the Dappleleaf gave to her about the prophecy "I see, no I don't understand the prophecy at all, I have my clues, but I hope it's not them the prophecy is telling to us..." she meowed to her with a silent voice. Her eyes looked at some of the Brambleheart's kits there at the cleaning, her eyes looked to Moonkit as well 'Please, let me be wrong...our clan is not ready if something happens to those kits, we're so long waited to have young blood in our clan' she thought to herself.

She turned to face the medicine cat once again this time giving her a soft smile "I will take my assessment tomorrow, so be prepared to have Moonkit under your and Morningfeather's paws" she meowed "I know you two will make her a good medicine cat" she kept saying. She thought for a moment "I think this is everything I need to speak with you if you don't mind, but I need to run to find one warrior who is not yet left the camp" she meowed to her with a gentle nod of her head and looked around the camp.



Spiderpaw | female | apprentice | (mentor?) | tags: Hawkeclaw, Mistyleaf

She looked up to the deputy and Mistyleaf, her ears flicked at the she-cats question about Brownfur's ceremony "Her ceremony? Warrior ceremony? No, she didn't? Is there something I need to know about her ceremony?" she meowed to the warrior little confused about her question. She looked at the two cats, seeing this weird look on their faces when she mentioned her former mentor maybe having a crush on Hawkeclaw, of course, she may be wrong too, but tension now made her think that maybe those two like each other. She looked at them in silence but didn't say anything about it, if they did then it was not her place to stick her nose in their things.

She looked to the deputy when he answered his question "Yeah I know, I just hope that my mentor has somewhat the same training methods as Brownfur had, I mean...I feel like changing my already learning skills to please my new mentor is going to confuse me too much" she meowed to him with a sigh "And I do want to keep my learning with Brownfur with me, I feel like I need to do that..." she kept meowing.

She flicked her ears at Hawkeclaw's question and Mistyleaf's agreement to his plan "Hmm, Meadow...I am not being there for a while" she responded to him.

Rushkit | male | kit | (soon to be apprentice) | tags: Silverkit > Maplepaw

He didn't say anything to his sister anymore, he didn't have time to say anything to her as she already run away. A sight escaped his mouth as he shook his head in pure annoyance. Sometimes he hated Silverkit, her way to act and speak to others, he felt failure around her no matter what did he do, right or wrong nothing pleased her. He looked down at his paws thinking could he be cruel and let the Silverkit run around the forest alone, and likely die there or could he be mean to actually say her running away to someone? She could get into a problem because of that. He knew she could, she was not that special that she could do whatever she could without getting punished for them.

He shook his head not really sure what to do, he looked up to the camp seeing one of the apprentices out there. Maplepaw. Flickering his small tail the soon-to-be-apprentice run toward the little little bit larger tom "Morning Maplepaw, what are you up to?" he meowed to the reddish tom as he walked to him "Is it cool, I am going to join your den tomorrow?" he meowed to him with excitement.

Paws softly tapped the ground adjusting and readjusting where they rest in order to get the right feel for their owner Maplepaw. His leaf hunting was cut short as they heard the pitterpat of small paws running up to him.

Turning to see who it was Maplepaw saw one of the kits; Rushkit, who Maplepaw thought looked like a tiger, running up to him.

Maplepaw turned to the kit before a smile graced over the older cat's features.

'I'm leaf hunting.' Was what Maplepaw wanted to say, but the words got stuck in their throat and refused to stumble out of their mouth, so instead a small, quiet 'lfff' noise came out.

Furrowed brows and paws stamped the ground with Maplepaw's frustration before Maplepaw came up with an idea to get his thoughts across. At least he hoped it would.

Grabbing a leaf that had stumbled from its safe haven of the tree Maplepaw put it on the ground before backing up, steadying his position, and pinning the mighty leaf prey to the ground.

'See leaf hunting.' They thought beaming at the kit.

Hearing Rushkit's question he nodded enthusiastically.

'It's really exciting! You'll do great!' He thought.

Paws tapped the ground and his body swayed as if the happiness was so great Maplepaw was unable to contain it.

Maplepaw wanted so badly to tell Rushkit how excited he was, so he tried he really, really did. Which made the frustration even worse as the only thing that would come out was a semi audiable "H-hap. Hap. Py. Happy." Maplepaw gave him a small, embarrassed smile feeling very accomplished that they managed to strangle out a word.

DAPPLELEAF

medicine cat / she/her or they/them / tags: Almondstar ;; Wisteriabloom and Snakeberry
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Dappleleaf nodded, understanding her leaders frustration. She was sure it was not easy to have something so daunting on her shoulders. She herself only plays apart, relaying what Starclan tells her. This was her first time receiving something so concerning. "Of course! I'll will speak with Morningfeather and see what we can do. I'm sure Moonkit will be with one of us most of the day anyways. I'll let him know officially when I get a moment."

With a polite bow, she padded back inside to see what Morningfeather and Moonkit were up to. When she found that they had slipped out without her realizing, she smiled. Rather than try to sniff out where they had gone, she decided to go mingle with the others and see who she could pester for a bit. She popped her head out of the den and scanned the camp, seeing who was still out and chatting. She spotted Rustfur and Hemlockhaze next to eachother, then Wisteriabloom with Snakeberry. She decided to wander over to Wisteriabloom and Snakeberry, curious what the two mollys were up to. "Hello there you two, how are you doing today? Her voice was soft and inviting, nothing to hint that she just had a very serious conversation with their leader.

HAWKECLAW

deputy / he/him / tags: Mistyleaf, Spiderpaw
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Hawkeclaw smiled in admiration at the young cat. "I am proud of you for wanting to keep apart of her with you. You will always have your training moments to remember her by." He was unsure how exactly to comfort her. Loss was always difficult, he couldn't imagine what was going through the youngsters mind, to lose someone you had bonded to would have a heavy blow. His thoughts wandered to how he would take it if something happened to Mistyleaf or Brambleheart and her kits. While he knew Mistyleaf struggle with the loss of Minkkit and Ferretkit, she never really told him about how she felt. He didn't pry either.

"Why don't you regale the story of Brownfurs' Ceremony to Spiderpaw while we head over to the meadow?"Hawkeclaw quickly chimed. He flashed a cheeky grin at Mistyleaf. "It will do her good to hear it. And we both know I am no good at telling stories."

CROWFUR

warrior / she/her / tags: patrol - Oleander
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Crowfur chuckled at his comment of catching something bigger. "I mean, we could try to get something bigger, but I am not the best at hunting..so unless you can catch a rabbit yourself...we are out of luck. But it is a good thought!" She padded onwards, keeping her nose up in the air for any prey smells. It was mostly old tracks and dung, if they did come across any. While she wished she was better at hunting, it was simply a skill she did not possess. Her fumbles had costed her many mice.

When Maplestrike spoke, Snowcloud's heart did a little leap. When he smiled, Snowcloud
couldn't help but grin back. She blushed as she realized she hadn't eaten anything all morning.
"Yes, please!" she exclaimed, eager. "I.. totally forgot I hadn't eaten breakfast today." she
laughed. "Thank you for asking. I.. wouldn't have eaten until much later if you didn't."

Snowcloud didn't understand why she was so nervous. It was just good old Maplestrike, not
one of her ancestors from Starclan. A thought about why came to her. Feelings. Such a
strange thing. her mind voice teased. Not true! Snowcloud replied in her head.

Storm
tom-cat he/him | loner | tags: none

Storm stretched his legs from his position lying down under the low bush he slept under, flinching as his joints popped and cracked. Gazing up at the sky he looked for the sun to guess the time of day, his assumption that he slept through the day before, his stomach rumbling confirmed that suspicion. Standing up Storm cringed at the stiffness and pain throughout his body, trying to shake the stiffness out. He stood still, smelling the air and listening for any prey nearby, and quickly catching the scent of rodent, hoping for a mouse or a vole so he could have a filling meal.
He crouched down as he heard the creature creep closer, stalking slowly towards his potential meal. He quickly pounded, slamming his paw down onto his prey and yelping as a shock of pain seared up his back leg. Taking the weight of the pained leg, Storm stood still for a moment to feel for any motion under his paw, purring with relief when he felt no movement. Hooking his claw into the back of the small rodent's neck, Storm bent down and started eating, his stomach pangs slowly fading.

[color=#0040FF]Muffin - Loner - 10 Moons - Tags: Storm[/color]

Muffin made her way through the bushes and brambles, searching for something to eat. After a while she picked up the smell of fresh kill. Followed by the scent of a cat she had never seen before. Immediantly the young she-cat dashed into a nearby bush, the branches rustling and snapping under her weight. Her blue eyes stared out at the silver tom, almost holding her breath to avoid being spotted right away.

She stepped back into camp holding a small mouthful of prey. Just enough for her to carry. She dropped it into the fresh kill pile and glanced around, her eyes settling on Mossfall. She made her way over to them, sitting down. “Good morning, how are you today?” She asked him, trying to make small talk. She didn’t really want to sit by herself, and they didn’t seem too busy.

A large yawn escaped her as she stretched and got to her paws, shaking her head a bit to clear the sleep that still pulled at her. She started on her journey again, still completely lost. Not paying much attention, she snapped almost every branch that stood in her way. Any passing cats would know she was a kittypet by her complete lack of awareness. A new scent drifted to her, making her stop. “More cats…?” She thought, stepping forward more cautiously now, although she still wasn’t very quiet. The snapping branches of the bush Muffin was in overwhelmed her with curiosity. She moved closer, pushing her way in the best she could. “Hi there! What are you hiding from?” She whispered excitedly, unaware that there was another cat nearby.

She dropped it in the freshkill pile and turned to see Hemlockhaze near the edge of the camp. She went over and sat down quietly next to him. “Morning! What are you doing all by yourself over here? Did Hawkeclaw give you a break from going out on patrol?” She asked quietly, not able to get a read on how he was feeling. She didn’t want to overstep and make him upset.
