((You since both of your cat's mentors are on e patrol right now, you can say they woke up late, and just have them be around camp with the others. I think Dawnfire will need some cats for a patrol soon, you can see if she wants to take your cat's with.))

Sharpclaw stared at Twigsnap, his eyes wide and startled. He thought for a moment. What should he say? An excuse? Won't work. "Yes, indeed, it was a very messy catch." He stared at his paws. How would he tell this? "No, nothing's in my mind." He shook his head and dug a hole, putting the rabbit in. He hurried away from Twigsnap's view. The sky was still gray. Hadn't it changed? Now, sunlight wasn't even there, not even the slightest pour.

Lynxpaw's eyes cracked open, and he let out a yawn. Moss clung to his brown grey coat, and it shook it free with a groan. Blinking against the sunlight, he stretched his forepaws, claws extended, then dragged himself outside. Instantly sunlight beamed down on him, and he purred in its warmth. Licking his lips, he made his way over to the fresh kill pile, only to remember that he couldn't eat until he'd hunted for the Clan. His eyes scanned the clearing for his mentor, but he guessed that Sparknose was out on patrol, because he was nowhere to be seen. Whiskers twitching in annoyance, Lynxpaw made a mental note to get up earlier. He padded into the apprentices den and saw his sister, Squirrelpaw, still snoring in her nest. He prodded her with his forepaw. "Wake up, Squirrelpaw." he breathed in her ear.

Squirrelpaw's eyes snapped open and she glanced around the den in alarm, wondering who'd woken her from her dream, but calmed when she realized it had been Lynxpaw. "You furball," she growled, leaping out of her den and tackling the tom cat. Lynxpaw let out a yelp in surprise, and he cuffed her ear gently. They tumbled over some nests, wrestling each other, until finally Lynxpaw had her pinned. He grinned. "Gotcha again!" he mewed in triumph, but Squirrelpaw didn't give up. She kicked her brother with her hind paws, sending him sprawling out the entrance. She sprung up like a rabbit, extending her forepaws in front of her, and landed squarely on top of him. Lynxpaw let out a whoosh of air, and he laughed. "Alright, you got me."

Starflight

Starflight laughed a bit as two apprentices came out of the den fighting. It was late enough in the morning that she was slightly surprised that they had been allowed to sleep in that long, but then she remembered where the patrol with their mentors was going and understood why they had been left behind. "Come share some prey with us!" She invited the two, calling them over to where she, Larksong, and Dawnfire were eating.

Lynxpaw's ears angled towards Starflight's voice, and he scrambled over to her, his stomach growling. "Thanks!" he muttered, through a mouthful of mouse. He purred as his mouth filled with the rich flavour, and he licked his lips in satisfaction when he was done.

Squirrelpaw followed her brother over to Starflight, and snorted in disgust as he ate the mouse. She took small bites from her vole, her tail curled up around her paws neatly. "Thanks, Starflight." she mewed gratefully once she'd finished the vole. She buried the remains and started to groom herself in long, smooth strokes, her rough tongue working down her back. She licked her paw and stroked it over one ear, then laid down in the sun to bask.

Starflight

"Not a problem." Starflight said, holding back laughter as she watched Lynxpaw eat a mouse. Of all the prey in the pile, he chose what must have been the most undesirable one of all. At least someone had eaten it though, wasting prey was never a good thing. "Do you two have a minute? I could use a couple of apprentices to help clean out the moss in all the dens. With all this rain we've been getting, it's getting stale much faster than it should." Starflight asked after the two apprentices were done with their meal.

Lynxpaw groaned and opened his mouth to reply, but his protest was muffled by Squirrelpaw shoving her tail tip onto his muzzle, covering his mouth. "Sure," she mewed, and Lynxpaw sighed, ears and tail drooped. "We'd love to help." She removed her tail from his mouth and Lynxpaw spluttered, wrinkling his nose in disgust. "Fine." he growled under his breath, obviously grumpy.
