Good evening everyone :3
----------
Frogpaw's eyes gleamed with excitement, despite how nervous she was in her mind. Her actual first time visiting The Great Arch! How exciting was that? Though it wasn't like she'd never met StarClan before, they had visited her in dreams numerous times when she was younger. Back then, she didn't know her destiny was to become a medicine cat. All she really knew then was that StarClan must've been very fond of her to be visiting a kit, of all cats, every now and then. And every since then, the tabby knew she was born to become the next medicine cat of ValleyClan.
But that wasn't important now. This was top, secret, medicine cat and leader business she was finally getting into. The adults now trusted her enough to tell her everything they'd been discussing. So did this mean that she'd get all of the details on the prophecy now? Would Grousestar and Lizardnose be willing to actually tell her? I'd guess not since not even Grasspelt wanted to tell me everything about it. But Frogpaw's mind was racing with questions and she couldn't manage holding them all in. Before she knew it she exploded with questions.
"What're we visiting the great arch for? The prophecy? Has it gotten worse? What's it about anyways? Oh- what point of day will you plan on leaving? Should I be preparing traveling herbs now?" The young apprentice was unaware of her pestering until a few moments later, shuffling her paws and laying her ears flat against her head. "Sorry." She mewed, giving her chest fur a few embarrassed licks.

Scorpionheart;; (Nightsinger ) The pretty young scout let out a short burst of laughter and rolled over onto her side, quite enjoying Doespot's company. "Ah, yes. I need lots and lots of food to be able to sleep so much. Crowfoot really needs to get on that," Scorpionheart purred. After a few moments of somewhat comfortable silence, she stood back up and arched her back. "I guess that I could take a day off of my serious sleeping schedule to help out a young'un like you traverse the territory." Doespot enjoyed the quiet for a moment as well. It wasn't always clanmates knew how to settle, or that she felt comfortable being quiet around. Her eyes followed Scorpionheart as her clanmate stood, confused for half a second, before she let out laugh. "A young'un?" she demanded as she stood to follow, though her eyes were warm. It was true she was much younger than Scorpionheart but.... "Does that make you an elder then? Are your joints going to make it?"[ no worries, I'll catch you later, then! Good luck! ]
Cedarpaw shifted, uncertain if it was something they were supposed to be discussing. Noting that very few other cats were awake, and none of them were near their nests, he turned back to Nightpaw. "I really hope so. It's really hard to practice scouting when our mentors are avoiding going off-trail as much as possible. I think they're worried that we'll stumble onto something unexpected. I'd certainly feel better if there was some sort of announcement, or even a message from StarClan, or the gods..." The young cat shuddered. Nightpaw was vaguely relieved that Cedarpaw was a more private cat than perhaps he appeared, but he found the checking around to be unneeded. The worst that would happen would be a scolding from their mentors or a sharp word, and that wouldn't be enough to dissaude him from discussing topics that weighed heavily on his mind. Instead it would serve as a reminder to do so privately. "It hardly seems fair your training would suffer from their worry," Nightpaw meowed with a frown. "I'll ask Blackfoot when we train today about what is going on. I hope that either the issue is settled soon or the clan realizes something is coming and stops waiting to start preparing."

Bearpelt;; (@silvey ; please keep in mind that Spiderstrike is Sandclaw's mate and the father to her kits, as well as the fact that it's morning) It had been a long night for Bearpelt since he had foolishly elected to take the night watch with Redclaw and Palefur, but he didn't mind all that much. Idle paws made for vain pursuits so the leader's son was always willing to work. At the beginning of his time as a guard cats had been afraid of him, or rather afraid to tell him what to do, because of his relationship with Grousestar but they quickly learned he was just like the rest of them. Shaking his mind free of thoughts as soft sunlight began to stream into the caverns, Bearpelt stood up and stretched out, letting his muscles relax for the first time all night. Looking around for someone to take his spot, he quickly found the young warrior Spiderstrike. After calling out to the young tom he padded over and flicked his ears in greeting. "Good morning." Spiderstrike | 22 Moons | Camp | Morning{Ah sorry, I'm used to writing stuff in the Afternoon XDD}
Spiderstrike's ear twitched he was actually about to visit Sandclaw when he heard the leader's son call out a greeting. He gave a purr to the hard working tom. "Goodmorning Bearpelt," he said with a respectful nod. He looked at the tom before him and stood up straight as if to await an order. Although, he wasn't intimidated by Bearpelt. He honestly looked up to the tom because of his hardworking agenda. I wonder what he would like me to do this morning? He wondered to himself. His attention then returned to the tom in front of him and he looked into his yellow-green eyes. The lithe black tom was standing there looking over the tom with giddiness. Although he wanted to visit his family, he was a father after all.

Grousestar;; (a diamond's pearl , wildsongπ§ ) Grousestar let out a soft mrrow of amusement, remembering the times when her kits were still apprentices and had just as many questions as Frogpaw - if not more. "It's quite alright," she said gently before sobering up. "We are visiting to speak to StarClan and possibly the gods, but it is not up to me to tell you the prophecy. Your mentors need to make that decision and it is completely up to them. Grasspelt and Lizardnose will be preparing the herbs since Rosefall is still in the nursery but I don't think that they would object to you helping."
Scorpionheart;; (Nightsinger I have a cute idea) Scorpionheart grinned at the younger she-cat and batted her ear gently, claws sheathed. "I'm not quite sure. You might have to carry me back. Are you up to the task?" she said jokingly as she walked away from the little secluded area and into the main part of camp. After looking around for a second or two, she ascertained that Stonesky had not yet returned. Groaning, she turned back around to face Doespot and shrugged her shoulders. "It's up to you where we go since Stonesky isn't here."

"I can understand why our mentors don't want us to go too far off the trail, especially when nobody knows what's really going on. I'd appreciate that, though, if you'd ask. I know I'd certainly feel better once we had a solid plan for preparation in place." Noting that more cats were awake now, Cedarpaw climbed to his paws, hoping that his mentor was awake. Despite the number of cats slowly moving around the camp"There's still no sign of our mentors," he murmured absently. "Maybe they were up late last night. It might be worthwhile starting on our chores - maybe the queens need fresh-kill?"

Despite the number of cats slowly moving around the camp"There's still no sign of our mentors," he murmured absently. "Maybe they were up late last night. It might be worthwhile starting on our chores - maybe the queens need fresh-kill?" Nightpaw dipped his head in acknowledgement of Cedarpaw's defense. It was a valid point and Nightpaw felt vaguely chastised by his conscious. He'd be more polite when asking Blackfoot. Nightpaw yawned once more but felt much more awake than he had and spared his fur a few licks. "Good idea," he agreed. " Why don't we ask Rosefall? I thought I saw her awake. Or we could check on the elders' bedding. I'm sure there's soft moss scattered all over the territory." Not that finding the moss filled him with excitement, especially with the fact it had to be replaced so often, but it was a job that needed to be done and so he would do it with as light a heart as possible. Scorpionheart;; (Nightsinger I have a cute idea) Scorpionheart grinned at the younger she-cat and batted her ear gently, claws sheathed. "I'm not quite sure. You might have to carry me back. Are you up to the task?" she said jokingly as she walked away from the little secluded area and into the main part of camp. After looking around for a second or two, she ascertained that Stonesky had not yet returned. Groaning, she turned back around to face Doespot and shrugged her shoulders. "It's up to you where we go since Stonesky isn't here." [ i'm always up for cute ideas! what do you have in mind? ;0 ] Doespot shied away, half-heartedly flinging a paw at Scorpionheart's when she batted her ears. She flicked them as if to check they were still working and sniffed. "As if you have to ask!" she meowed haughtily. " I'll have you know I could carry a whole log back to camp if I had to!" Though, she certainly hoped she wouldn't have to. There was something about the idea of splinters in her mouth that dimmed any excitement for performing such a feat. She too looked around for Stonesky but saw no sign. The prospect of choosing where they may go made her mouth feel dry. Surely Scorpionheart should choose as the senior warrior? Was this a test? But no, her clanmate's gaze was friendly and not heavy, so she took a deep breath and nodded. "Where did you go this morning?" she asked. "I think trying the opposite side of the territory of that would be a good start."

"I'm sure Rosefall would love the company! And to be honest, I'd rather visit her than search for moss," Cedarpaw joked. Privately, he thought that gathering moss was the most tedious task (except perhaps checking the elders for ticks) on the apprentices' chore roster, probably because he disliked the silence that came with having your jaws stuffed with moss. Not to mention the fact that carrying so much severely impaired his ability to run - he'd tried it once, only to trip over as he stepped on the trailing ends of moss, resulting in scraps of moss flying everywhere. "I wonder if there's any prey on the pile for her."

Nightpaw's ears flicked in agreement. "I feel the same," he mewed. And we can visit her kit! he added to himself, though he didn't share the sentiment. "I'll check the pile," he announced before standing and doing just that. There was some freshkill on the pile, but Nightpaw found himself frowning even so. They seemed mostly stale or limp. "I'm not sure these are any good to offer Rosefall," he meowed glumly. "Maybe we should go out hunting for her? But then our mentors may not be able to find us, and neither of us are hunters anyway..." His words trailed off as he slipped deeper into his thoughts. He needed to practice hunting more, especially if he was going to be a head of the guards one day, but all the same the thought of leaving and possibly getting into trouble didn't sit well with him. But Rosefall deserved more than some stale mice! He glanced over at Cedarpaw, hoping that they could come to a decision between the two of them.

[ awesome, thank you! also my idea was that when/if Scorpion and Doe become mates that little secluded area could be their nest ;u; ] Scorpionheart;; Scorpionheart could sense Doespot's hesitation towards picking somewhere to travel to, but it was only natural when you were a young and fairly untested warrior. "I went towards the Great Peaks this morning," she replied without commenting on that sensed weariness. "Nothing unusual up there; never is. Those tribe cats never come down from the mountains, if they're even up there anymore."

She hoped those cats were still there, of course; otherwise, the alternatives indicated something went terribly wrong. "Let's go southeast then," she mewed with a decisive flick of her tail. " We can skirt the edges of the lake there and check out the borders before heading back." It would be a long trip, she supposed, but she enjoyed visiting the lake and the company was lovely. She hoped the weather cooperated as well to make for a refreshing trip. Without further ado she made her way to the cave entrance, stopping by the tree to make sure Scorpionheart was following before continuing on.

[ I don't see why they couldn't in RP ] Scorpionheart;; The calico cat nodded in agreement and padded after Doespot. The long trip didn't bother Scorpionheart at all; if it did, then she had no business being a scout. "Are we running or walking?" she asked as they exited the camp. All scouts were trained to be able to run in time with partners so that if they ever went out in pairs one didn't leave the other behind. Luckily, the weather had been nice enough to not make the ground muddy so that if Doespot decided to run it wouldn't be too difficult. That being said, Scorpionheart wouldn't mind walking either.

Doespot tried not to scold herself. She hadn't even thought about if they should walk or run! Well, it was fine now, and Scorpionheart didn't seem to mind. "I think it would be more efficient to run until we reach the lake, and we should walk from there to the borders." Her thinking being it would save time and then allow them to catch their breath in case they stumbled upon any outsiders. There hadn't been signs of any, but it never hurt to be sure. Once there they could take a look around, or find a patrol to carry messages for. She glanced at Scorpionheart, wordlessly asking if that plan was okay with her clanmate.

Scorpionheart;; (Nightsinger ) Scorpionheart flicked her ears in agreement and slowly picked up her speed, allowing Doespot to adjust to running as well. The warm breeze on her face was welcome and the grass under her paws felt amazing. After travelling through the driest and sandiest part of the territory earlier in the morning, it felt nice to run over something soft. "I wish the seasons didn't change and it just stayed like this," she said with a sigh following. "Though running in the winter is fun."

The wind through her fur felt like the brush of a friend, and the day was still new with energy. She had to agree. Hadn't she just said to Scorpionheart she wished the pleasant times could last forever? Maybe she should have included the weather and seasons as well. She huffed a small laugh at herself and in response to Scorpionheart. "I like the cold air," she confessed, "and the snow in the hills. There's something magical about it. And when the sun shines on the snow it's so bright!" It was entirely different from the hush in the forests and the warmth of the valleys.

"You sound like my old mentor," she said with a laugh as they leaped over a fallen tree in unison. "Who were you apprenticed to? I don't pay much attention to lowly young'uns."

"Foxtuft trained me," she replied and made no secret of the warmth in her tone. "I must admit that other than the elders I didn't pay much attention to you oldies!" It goes both ways, she thought smugly. She had been intimidated by those older than her, and found much better company in her fellow apprentices. Now, however, she was just as guilty for only paying attention to apprentices when they brought in prey or stood too weirdly. She should probably fix that.

Ok done! Tell me if I need to add or change anything. And with the RP, I'm more advanced if I'm RPing with someone and I know the plot or storyline, and I may take a little while to get the hang of it, which is why the example is rather short and, y'know, bleh.
screen-name: Katzu character name: Stonesky three personality traits: Stonesky is reserved, keeping to herself most of the time. She avoids most social gatherings and is often the cat that sits at the edge of the group, not really listening to any of the conversations. She is also quite intelligent and quick-witted, and doesnβt let insults pass. other: She is an excellent tree-climber and forager. rp sample: Examplecat basked in a patch of sunlight, tail twitching lazily and eyes half closed. The wind ruffled her fur and brought the musky scent of moss and brambles drifting over the camp. She flicked her ears and stretched, opening her eyes and glancing briefly at her surroundings. Apprentices chatting, kits playing, elders resting and warriors mingling with the rest of the clan. Her clear, bright gaze drifted to the camp enterance and she yawned, exposing small, sharp fangs.
screen-name: Katzu character name: Mousestep three personality traits: Mousestep is reasonably quiet and sometimes very shy, and because of his small build it often makes him appear weak, but he doesnβt let others push him around and can be fierce and snappy when he wants to, and never backs down from a fight. other: He dislikes heights and enjoys swimming. rp sample: As above.
screen-name: Katzu character name: Featherheart three personality traits: Featherheart is nothing like her name suggests, she is feisty, sarcastic and inclined to be stubborn, and disapproves of wimpy cats. other: Despite her hard outer shell, Featherheart is terrified of water. rp sample: As above.
screen-name: Katzu character name: Darkpaw three personality traits: Darkpaw is very protective of those he loves, and to mess with his friends is a deathwish. He has a tendency to snap, even when heβs calm and happy, but he will do his best to make up for it afterwards as he is very apologetic. other: Darkpaw isnβt a huge fan of romance, but who knows? rp sample: As above.

Nightpaw's ears flicked in agreement. "I feel the same," he mewed. And we can visit her kit! he added to himself, though he didn't share the sentiment. "I'll check the pile," he announced before standing and doing just that. There was some freshkill on the pile, but Nightpaw found himself frowning even so. They seemed mostly stale or limp. "I'm not sure these are any good to offer Rosefall," he meowed glumly. "Maybe we should go out hunting for her? But then our mentors may not be able to find us, and neither of us are hunters anyway..." His words trailed off as he slipped deeper into his thoughts. He needed to practice hunting more, especially if he was going to be a head of the guards one day, but all the same the thought of leaving and possibly getting into trouble didn't sit well with him. But Rosefall deserved more than some stale mice! He glanced over at Cedarpaw, hoping that they could come to a decision between the two of them. [ sorry for the poof! ]
Cedarpaw frowned at the meagre offerings on the pile. "I agree. She should have fresh prey." Nightpaw was correct in saying that neither of them were hunters, although Cedarpaw thought that between them, they stood a reasonable chance of catching something. The other apprentice was also correct in saying that their mentors wouldn't know where they were. "Perhaps," he ventured, "if we just stay close to the camp, we'd be ok, since we'd be able to hear them call for us. Maybe we'd even get lucky and find a mouse or two near the entrance! I'm sure Rosefall would appreciate it." He added. "and our mentors would be pleased with us showing initiative."
