Mintpaw's fur fluffed out in surprise as Rainpaw came over and squealed. As a result she accidentally tugged too hard on a burr she had been attempting to untangle. The burr came free of Kestralpaw's pelt but took some fur with it. The she-cat spat out the burr and turned to the hyperactive apprentice, "Rainpaw! Could you not be so loud" she snapped flattening her fur, "I'm standing right beside you" she meowed. Larkfeather stretched having just returned from hunting. The new extension to the warriors den had been quiet the help and it was grudgingly that he acknowledged perphas those apprentices weren't too bad after all. "Oh! Sorry.." Rainpaw looked at her paws. "Can I help?" she looked at Kestralpaw as if she just noticed the other apprentice was there. "Oh, hi Kestralpaw!!" |

| Sharpstar |
Tail twitching with mild irritability, Sharpstar gathered himself and bounded swiftly down the small ledge of his previous resting point. Since the day he had warned Deerstar about the smoke, it had no gone away. In fact, it had grown substantially bigger and was starting to cause a musky smell to drift to camp. He positioned himself so that the clan could sense and see his authority. "Cat's of Pineclan, gather here." Lifting his muzzle, he did his best to catch Deerstar's eye. At this point, he hoped all cat's were safe in camp.
| Acornpaw |
Acornpaw hissed in defiance at the mouse that scuttled away without a scratch, causing her to land on nothing but leaves and a small mud pot. She didn't waste time on the ground and instead was interrupted by Sharpstar's voice ringing clearly over the territory surrounding the camp. If she had been out farther, she couldn't have heard but she was indeed close enough to hear and instead of walking back without thinking, she remained where she was with a slight hint of hesitation.
| Redfur |
Redfur grumbled to himself and approached the meeting, curved claws clicking the ground as he approached.
| Yarrowfur |
Yarrowfur blinked at the sudden yowl of their leader and approached him, her fur rippling with unease at Sharpstar. "What is this about?" She murmured generally, not directing it to a certain cat.

 -- |> Nettlepaw <|
Nettlepaw perked up her ears as she heard Sharpstar call a meeting together. She sniffed and made her way over and sat down by the edge of the crowd to listen to what her mentor and leader had to say.
|> Clearwhisker <|
The elder grunted and sat down outside the elders den - close to Redfur - to listen, his shoulders slumped and Clearwhisker gave a brisk nod to Redfur.
|> Rest of my cats <|
Gathered. |

Rainpaw's attention snapped towards her leader's call. "Ooohh! a clan meeting!" She said, hopping over towards the middle of the crowd.

Larkfeather joined the growing crowd of cats waiting patiently for the meeting.
Leafrain sighed leaving the herbs she had been sorting and sat at the edge of the group not bothering to clean the bits of crushed herb from her paws.
Mintpaw's ears swivelled at the sound of Sharpstar calling the meeting, "I wonder what this is about?" She meowed more to herself then anyone and sat beside rainpaw.

| Sharpstar |
Gaze sweeping the ground, Sharpstar parted his jaws to speak. "Hunting has never been harder in our forest." He began, drawing in a steady breath. "Leaf bare has been hard on us, and I've done my best to read Starclan's signs but clearly, nothing has changed." He paused, his gaze searching for both of the medicine cat's. "As some of you might have noticed, the smoke from a few sun-rises ago, has returned in a greater force. I haven't discussed anything with Deerstar quite yet, but I plan to send a patrol to observe our situation." Placing a paw forwards in a bold motion, he continued, "Larkfeather, Leafrain, Speckledpaw, Nettlepaw, and I will began our small journey to the site near duskfall." A hushed breeze ruffled through the array of cat's gathered in front of Sharpstar, he took this as Starclan's approval.
( Setting: Sun-high, breezy, and partly cloudy. Small cover of snow. )

Leafrain's tail tip twitched in surprise as Sharpstar called her name. Sure it made sense to bring a medicine cat she supposed but it was hardly a common thing, and with the snow they needed their stocks now more then ever. Immediately the black she-cat jumped to her paws and moved back into the medicine cat den, "We're going to need the travelling herbs- maybe I should go collect some herbs before I go?" Leafrain muttered to herself and glanced at her half sorted pile of herbs. Honestly there was still too much to do here!
Mintpaw jumped up as Sharpstar announced the journey, "A journey!" She meowed tail straight, "b-but that's huge!" She glanced around in astonishment. Then as if she just realised her name hadn't been called her tail dropped. She was one of the younger apprentices but she was desperate to do something-anything. And why did Speckledpaw and Nettlepaw get to go but no one else? "But I want to go..." she mewed in disappointment as Sharpstar finished listing the cats going.
Larkfeather's eyes widened as his name was called but he quickly recovered and lifted his head in acknowledgement to his leaders announcement. His head whipped around as Mintpaw spoke up near by and his eyes narrowed but he wasn't close enough to shush her. Sometimes he wondered if her attitude would be much different if Robinfur was still around.

Thymepaw scowled, irritated that she hadn't been chosen for the patrol, she was almost a warrior after all. The dark grey she cat let out a soft huff of annoyance,but nodded towards the two apprentices chosen for the patrol. "Shush Mintpaw, sometimes cats just don't get chosen," She added to Mintpaw, trying her best to keep the irritation out of her voice, raising her head almost haughtily.
Berry whiskers eyes widened in surprise, feeling a pang of panic at the thought of having to go through all of the medicine cat duties alone. He nudged his friend in congratulations, following her back to the den. "We don't need to go and collect herbs," Berrywhisker mewed, correcting the "I" quietly as he settled down next to her, bad leg splayed out slightly for comfort. He began to sort the herbs. "You go get the herbs to curb hunger, I'll work on the ones for energy."

Leafrain smiled grateful for Berrywhisker's steadiness but it didn't stop the pang of guilt that passed through her aware that she was leaving him to deal with their usually shared duties alone. With nod she moved to collect the herbs creating five seperate piles, "We shouldn't be gone long" she meowed. Though she never doubted her friends abilities she certainly felt more comfortable when it was the two of them together.
Mintpaw glared at the older apprentice, "please you want to go as well" she murmured under her breath but did quiet down though it didn't help her disappointment.

"Well duh," Thymepaw hissed back, lashing her tail, "But you can't go around complaining or Sharpstar will never choose you," She snapped back, flicking her tail in aggravation. She can be so mouse-brained at times. She thought with a huff.
"Yeah, I know," Berrywhisker mewed, unable to hide the mixture of nerves and disappointment in his voice. A small part of him wished he had been chosen, but was well aware that would never happen. The tabby tom just hoped that there wouldn't be much going on, uncomfortable with having to handle any emergencys without Leafrain around. He was much to used to having split his responsibilities, not having to take them all on his own. He got up, limping towards the other herbs, grabbing the necessary herbs before returning and sorting them with Leafrains assorted piles.

"I get to come!" Nettlepaw exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement. "A journey! This is going to be much better than sticking around camp all day!" She jumped to her paws, and stuck her tongue out at Thymepaw and Mintpaw then looked back at Sharpstar as though she hadn't done anything. |

Rainpaw started giggling nervously. Nettlepaw was going? Nettlepaw? She watched the apprentice stick her tongue out at the other two apprentices. "She's about as mature as a kit!"
(Well Rainpaw's being a hypocrite now)

| Sharpstar |
Narrowing his eyes in slight disappointment, Sharpstar waited patiently until the apprentices we're done complaining. "I won't tolerate my clan showing signs of disrespect to eachother, Nettlepaw. I'm not blind and you won't forget that anytime soon." His tail lashed behind him as he shifted his gaze to Nettlepaw's innocent one. "I chose you for this journey for special reasons, as well as the other cat's who will be going." He paused to shift his gaze again, in time to see Leafrain and Berrywhisker part from the group. His fur prickled as his tail twitched in sync with the wafting breeze. "As for the rest of you, hunting is only permitted within the rim territories. The cat's going on this hunting patrol will be Foxlight, Yarrowfur, Mintpaw, and Thymepaw." With that, his tail flicked in clan dismissal. |

(Sorry for not being on, I've been sick  ) Cricketleap pricked her ears and felt her pelt fluff up in worry, smoke? She had noticed it, of course, the air had started become thick with the scent. It had made hunting that much harder, in a already hard leaf-bare. As Sharpstar called together a patrol that would investigate the smoke and Cricketleap shuddered,"Theres no way I'd go and intentionally investigate a fire." She muttered, the thought terrified her and the scent alone was pretty awful. |

[ I'm here c: ]
[ Kestralpaw | Apprentice ]
Kestralpaw had observed the meeting quietly, listening attentively. He let out a soft huff of disappointment upon hearing he wasn't scheduled for a patrol or the journey. "You guys are so lucky!" Kestralpaw chirped as Thymepaw and Nettlepaw were both mentioned.
[ Foxlight | Deputy ]
Foxlight listened closely to Sharpstar's words and nodded as he mentioned her name. She waited a moment before heading towards the two apprentices, noticing the discontentment among them. She remembered being an apprentice very well, and knew this had to be fairly disappointing for the two of them. SHe padded towards Thymepaw and Mintpaw, her tail swaying by her feet. "I hope being on a hunting patrol won't be too dull for either of you," Foxlight purred, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
[ Creekheart | Warrior ] Creekheart nodded his head as he heard Cricketleap speak. "It's got to be bad if Sharpstar himself is going," Creekheart said, eyeing their leader uncertainly. He trusted Sharpstar with his life, and Deerstar for that matter, but he didn't like not knowing this information ahead of time. Or that an apprentice was going with them, particularly as it was going to dangerous. Creekheart sighed and shook out his pelt, as if to rid it of the smoke. "At least they'll be able to figure out what's going on."

Nettlepaw snorted at Sharpstar's scolding and fell back onto her haunches, her tail twitched and her bold eyes were fixed on her mentor. "At least I don't have to go on some dumb hunting patrol." The light grey apprentice lifted her chin, she ignored the hateful remarks around her and just sat with a snobby and satisfied posture. |

» Deerstar had sat beside Sharpstar, eyes scanning the camp. She had sent a cold glare at Nettlepaw, hoping that he'd relax; her glare's weren't common and it was quite rare she'd give attitude. The leader then shifted her weight from paw to paw as she observed, then looking off into the horizon.

Speckledpaw stared up at the leader in shock, her world getting dizzy as her mind processed the information. 'A patrol.. outside of the forest!' She couldn't believe she had been picked for such an occassion.

| Sharpstar |
His lips curled back in a challenged snarl, his gaze meeting Thymepaw's. "Your in no place to disrespect me like that." Sharpstar's voice was sharp and direct as the slate colored tom pressed himself reassuringly against Deerstar's flank. "We'll talk about your punishment later Thymepaw, I have my reasons for bringing Nettlepaw along." Lifting his muzzle, Sharpstar turned to address the cat's that he had previously called, ""Larkfeather, Leafrain, Speckledpaw, and Nettlepaw, are we all ready?" Swiveling his ears forwards, the sleek furred tom left abruptly, making his way towards the medicine cat to check on Leafrain and the herbs. "Are we ready?"

Speckledpaw gulped. She slowly trotted her way to the medicine den after her leader. It still was unbelievable to her that she was going on such a trip as this. She sat down beside her leader, eyes wide. She wanted to ask so many questions but kept her tongue locked in place. Speckledpaw wondered what she could do and help in such a journey.

She gave an angry his, hackles raising, "She's the one taunting other apprentices," She spat before storming off, pausing only to say a quick good luck to Speckledpaw, knowing the other apprentice would need it, before stalking off again, muttering things along the lines of Sharpstar showing favoritism. She stalked into the apprentices den, not even looking at Foxlight, not thinking it was worth going out. She should be going on the journey, she was the oldest apprentice and one of the more responsible ones at that. This could have been her chance to prove herself to Sharpstar, but instead she was just shooed away like an annoying kit. It'll be hunting patrols for the rest of my life. He won't ever give me my warriors name. He'll make sure his precious apprentice gets one before anyone else. She thought irritably.

Ooooooh drama~!)
Speckledpaw said a soft thank you to Thymepaw. It was quite strange that Sharpstar had chosen his apprentice for the journey. Thympaw was one of the older apprentices, so it would make more sense if she was chosen. Probably a much better pick than herself.. Speckledpaw shook her head. But Sharpstar chose me for a reason! There has to be a big reason.. right?

[ Foxlight | Deputy ] Foxlight sighed and as she watched Thymepaw stalk off. She glanced towards Nettlepaw, but didn't say anything. She knew Sharpstar would scold her, and that she needed to check on Thymepaw. Foxlight padded towards the apprentice den, sparing one last glance to make sure the other apprentices weren't about to fight anymore. She didn't fully go into the den, but instead decided to stand in the entrance and let her eyes adjust to the darkness for a moment.
"Why did you let her get to you?" Foxlight asked gently as she finally spotted Thymepaw. |
