PowerClans: The Rise of DarkClan

[willowsong12]

((EarthClan))
Emberclaw could feel Lightwhispers pawsteps through the ground. He knew she was pacing around the clearing. He smiled looking at his apprentice,"Remember you have to clear your mind and concentrate on moving the earth. You have to feel as if the earth is connected to you and to control your thoughts and emotions.

WaterClan

Stonefur nodded, and dipped his head. "I will tell Pinefeather as soon as I get the chance." he promised. And with a flick of his tail as a goodbye, he walked across the camp towards the medicine cat's den to get the herbs. As he walked, he frowned, and thought about what his leader had told him. It was a great act of trust for Rainstar to walk to the EarthClan with her deputy and medicine cat. Of course, the EarthClan cats wouldn't attack them, unless at first they decided that they were intruding. But if they did attack, there wouldn't be many cats to defend them. Sometimes other clans could be reckless, and attack at first sight.

The deputy entered the medicine cat's den halfway, poking his head in the entrance. "Pinefeather? Are you here?" he called out, hoping to find the WaterClan's medicine cat sorting through herbs, or making a mixture or something. Stonefur wasn't one to know much about herbs. Glancing around, Stonefur tried to see if Pinefeather was there.

Otterpaw glanced around before sitting down, thinking. It'd be so much fun when they went down to the water. She wondered who would come, and if Stonefur would be able to play with her. They hadn't had much fun being brother and sister, because she hardly ever got to hunt or play with him. Sometimes they joked around when her brother was off-duty, or eating, but usually he was busy. When he got a second apprentice or something, then they'd have fun. She'd try to pester Silverleaf to train with her brother whenever they did. Frowning, Otterpaw noticed that maybe she'd be a warrior by the time Stonefur got another apprentice. There weren't any kits in WaterClan lately, and not that many apprentices too. There was no doubt, they needed more cats.

LeafClan

Russetfur yawned and then frowned. Most mentors had already gone out with their apprentices to train and hunt, so he decided that he'd go out to hunt a little, to take his mind off of the clan. Shaking his head as if to clear it of the fogginess of sleep, he padded silently out of camp and into the sunlight forest that hung over their heads outside the camp. Scenting the air, he strained to catch the scent of a squirrel or thrush. The chatter of a red squirrel filled the air as it flung itself from tree to tree. Russetfur tipped his head to one side, thinking of something. Wouldn't it be helpful if the apprentices were trained to climb trees, and jump from branch to branch, being able to catch tree-dwelling prey? He smiled to himself, amused at the thought of apprentices clambering around on the spindly branches above, bumping around, being clumsy. Suddenly, he caught the scent of a thrush and stalked into the bushes.

IceClan

Leopardfur was yawning, still shaking off sleep when she heard it. The sound of a white wolf. She scented the air and listened, pricking her ears high and alert. Nightfall's yowl echoed through the air. Something was happening. He must be getting attacked. Racing out of camp, she tried to follow his scent, trying to pinpoint the fight. Racing across the frozen tundra, Leopardfur's golden spotted pelt contrasted with the pure whiteness of the snow. Her pawprints were imprinted in the ice, trailing behind her. "Nightfall!!!" she yowled, hoping that wherever he was, he'd know that she was going to help.

((LeafClan))
Shiningmist sat outside of camp and decided she wanted to learn new things. She walked up to the tree and dug her claws in. She swiftly began to climb it toward the top. She had been practicing for a few moons now and was getting better at it everyday. She would later go and find the river to swim in.

[Tinkpetz]

(Yes, could you do that, Rose? I don't know what to say, and you're good at things like that. Short posts today; I have to go!)

FireClan

Nightfire rolled her eyes and smiled briefly. "Let's get going already!" she meowed impatiently, trotting out of camp without the toms.

Foxflame laughed. "Yes, let's not waste any more time, Nightfire," he retorted cheerfully, bounding after her.

EarthClan

Earthpaw nodded, concentrating. His eyes glowed a dark, muddy color and the ground around the twig Emberclaw had pointed out started to shake. He grinned as the rumbles grew more violent until a huge chunk of dirt lifted out of the ground. The happy apprentice yowled triumphantly and the island floated over to the group, landing with a thud. The twig was still intact.

IceClan

Nightfall heard the yowl of a she-cat in the distance; he vaguely identified it as Leopardfur. That bit of information didn't help him as the wolf's enormous white paw slammed down over him. He hissed and slashed with his claws as the wind was knocked out of him. A red drop of the wolf's blood dripped down on the snow, and the black tom remembered a lesson he had learned as an apprentice. If you can slash up your opponent enough, start to freeze his blood. He shot up and slashed at the wolf's face, sending it back a few steps. That small retreat was all he needed. His eyes glowed an icy blue and ice started to form on the white creature's paws and face. It shook itself, but was on him again in no time. He couldn't keep it up.

IceClan

Leopardfur panted hard as she tried to be as fast as she could. She could tell that it wasn't going well, just from the sounds of the hisses and yowls that faintly met her ears. She placed on a burst of speed and launched herself over a snowy hill, nearly colliding with a snowy rabbit. She shoved it aside and kept on running. Suddenly, Leopardfur stopped at the top of a snowy knoll, staring down with inquisitive eyes. She closed her eyes after gaining knowledge of the fight, shaken at the size of how large the wolf was. Leopardfur sent out a jolt of ice shards, letting them fly at the wolf with all her strength. "Nightfall! Hang on!" she yowled as the shards of ice flew through the air.

SunClan

Flamedancer froze suddenly when she found a decent place to hunt, close to the border SunClan and IceClan shared. She pricked her ears and scented the air for prey, but what she found wasn't exactly what the SunClan warrior had been expecting. It took her a few moments to distinguish the different voices, but soon enough one thing was clear: Nightfall was in danger. Fear for the dark tom seemed to emanate from her being as she pelted through the sparse forest, too distracted by the instinct that urged her to protect the cat who barely knew her while she raced past the border, into trouble. Her sensitive nose told her that another IceClan cat lurked nearby, but she didn't care. Flamedancer's attention was focused on the uncanny scent of wolf invading her nostrils, and the cold feeling gripping her heart.
((Oh, Flamedancer, why must you always get yourself into situations like these? I thought you'd learned in past RPs, but I guess not. . . Aw, Tink, I noticed that you took away the ;D next to "Likes Nightfall." Why would that be, I wonder? :3))

((FireClan))
Mudpaw flicked his tail happily padding after his mentor. "Nightfire is fun to be around. She pretends to be grouchy alot but she always has something interesting to talk about even when she actually is grouchy." He twirled around snagging a leaf in his claw,"Foxflame do you think I'll be as brave and strong as you when I'm a warrior?" His green eyes glowed with admiration as he looked up at his mentor.

((EarthClan))
Emberclaw purred loudly approvingly,"That was excellent Earthpaw. You are learning quicker than most cats." He felt alittle shocked but his eyes glowed proudly and he looked at Lightwhisper,"Alright we can go back to patrolling. Earthpaw you can have first pick of the fresh-kill pile when we get back."

(Sorry! Had a big Easter trip and barely had time for CS!)

Iceclan
Frostwhisker padded out of the medicine cat's den and walked to the fresh kill pile. The smell of warm blooded prey in the chilly, pine-scented air was mouthwatering. She took a bushy squirrel and nimbly picked at it, picking the thick fluff off until she was close to its skin. She bit at the bare area and was able to taste the squirrel instead of having to spit out its fuzzy pelt.

Earthclan
Ivypaw sat in the middle of the camp. She sighed as she thought about her training.

Leopardpaw cocked her head.
"Shiningmist? What are we going to do today?" she asked.

[major tom]

EarthClan

Lightwhisper pured praise to Earthpaw as well, then nodded to his mentor. She hesitated for a moment longer, then flicked her tail in signal to follow her out of the clearing, remaining alert in case prey was nearby. She began to pad back into the shadows of the sparse forest when a low rumbling filled the air as the ground began to tremble beneath her paws. The white she-cat frowned and halted abruptly in midstep. "Okay, Earthpaw. That is enough for today." She turned to the apprentice and her brow furrowed deeper when she saw that his brown eyes weren't glowing, nor was he displaying any signs of effort. She turned her pale green gaze to Emberclaw to discover that he lacked these traits as well. The earth underneath the warrior's paws shook more violently now, gradually becoming stronger. "What--" began Lightwhisper, but she was interrupted when a rather large tree suddenly gave a loud groan as it suddenly fell towards them!
((O.O -Grin grin- Master of suspense! JK, not really, but still. . . x3))

[willowsong12]

((LeafClan))
Shiningmist smiled and looked at her apprentice,"Ok LeafClan doesn't teach their apprentices to climb but I will. I think it is important for you to learn how to." She then padded over to an old tree. "Ok I want you to stand up on your hindlegs and grip the bark with your claws." She demonstrated how to do it then looked over at Leopardpaw.

((EarthClan))
Emberclaw let out a yowl and grabbed his apprentices scruff. He tossed Earthpaw to the side as the tree fell toward him. He turned to run but the tree fell and Emberclaw disappeared in the branches.
