Back on her paws, Blossomtail swung her body to the side fiercely, trying to dislodge the apprentice, then resorting to trying to grab Pricklepaw with her teeth and throw her off. Blossomtail's blood softly dripped to the ground as they trickled from the wounds, small puddles quickly broken up by the fuss of the battle.

With one last swing Blossomtail broke Pricklepaw's grip, wincing slightly at the feeling of claws ripping away from her body. Seeing the state the apprentice was in, Blossomtail backed up slightly and turned to Iceflight. "Is that enough?" she asked, catching her breath. She turned and licked one of the scrapes on her side, its metallic taste on her tongue.

Iceflight nodded, standing and padding over to the apprentice. She ignored the hungry stares of the dark cats around the clearing- it was obvious they were ravishing the battle and the blood after not seeing nearly enough of it for so many moons. She felt a slight satisfaction in knowing that bringing the two cats to train was the perfect way to win the interest of the other cats in the Dark Forest. No one would question the task of training now- it was an opportunity to drag claws through pelts that cats had not felt in a long time.
She stepped up next to Pricklepaw, her eyes gleaming like sharp flecks of icy water.
"That was very impressive, Pricklepaw. You've surprised us today" she meowed, truthfully. She had known the inkling from her ability to scry into the hearts of cats that Pricklepaw had great potential, but she had somewhat been expecting the cat to take a much more severe beating her first fight. Instead, Blossomtail didn't look much better than her. It was a promising start, and Iceflight felt the hungry tendrils of power grip the empty space in her chest where her heart used to lay. With cats like this, her victory over Starclan would come easily...
"I can see in your eyes that you are beginning to feel the power you now hold. Your claws are good not just for holding onto old logs in the forest, now aren't they?" She meowed, circling the young cat, then leaned her head closer to Pricklepaw, her cold aura brushing into her fur. "It's exhilarating to feel your own power, isn't it?"

Cloudypaw still decided to remain silent, following the screeching noises of what she only had to assume to be the noise of fighting cats. She never heard it before, so she just had to go on the assumption of what it was. She scented the air, recognizing a familiar smell among the strange ones. 'Prickle paw?' She thought, tipping her head to one side, continuing on, before calling out an uncertain, "Hello?" Shocked that she dared to use her own voice, it sounding rasped and rough from disuse, even in this strange dream.
(Hello ^^)

(Oh my gosh Sweetclover I totally missed your post a few pages ago about Cloudypaw being in the Dark Forest!! I just read back and found it lol I was confused for a min there like 'why is cloudypaw here' ghskjs sorry, I'll acknowledge her as soon as trinkets responds right now ;w; )
Iceflight felt a cool wave of satisfaction ripple through her fur, and she turned to Slatestorm. The older warrior looked beat up, just like Pricklepaw. They would have to rely on eachother now in order to cover up their weakness upon waking. Badgerheart had done it well enough in his own time, however, and Ivypaw had done well enough too, so she had no doubts the cats would be able to manage. Some of their wounds would fade slightly upon waking as well- it seemed the unnerving environment of the Dark Forest had a way of making painful things even more excruciating. Iceflight simply took it as another measure put in place to keep the cats stronger than the lazy, well fed cats of Starclan.
"Check eachother over for wounds. We have one more guest we must welcome" She meowed, and cast her gaze out towards one far edge of the clearing, where a faint meow could be heard. She padded slowly over, her paws noiseless as she moved over a few fox lengths.
"Cloudypaw, welcome. We have been waiting for you." She spoke out, her voice low but traveling around the forest loud enough for all cats to hear. She reached out to the young white she-cat, beckoning for her to come to them.

Blossomtail sat off to the side, still looking at Pricklepaw impressed. Now she understood what Iceflight had seen in an apprentice like her.
Slatestorm had to stop herself from bursting out in surprise, wanting to congratulate Pricklepaw. However, she still felt the need to hold her tongue after earlier's blunder.
Blossomtail had no such reservations. "Now, if you keep training, you may be able to reach the level of that apprentice!" she quietly remarked to Slatestorm in a tone that was oozing with saccharine sarcasm.
"Yeah, I do need to keep training to get better," Slatestorm practically whispered in response, not paying attention all the way and not having shown any sign of taking offense to it - rather, agreeing with it, actually. Padding over to Pricklepaw, she looked the apprentice over. "Need any help?"
Well. That wasn't exactly the response Blossomtail expected, but alright. She turned her gaze to the newcomer, a small white-furred apprentice. She watched with interest.

"No need to be fearful, you are still asleep safely back in your camp. Here your spirit wanders among your allies, Cloudypaw. I am Iceflight, and although you may not know me, I know you quite well. I have watched you for many moons, kin of my kin, and I am pleased to see you finally joining us." Iceflight meowed, beckoning the white she cat with her tail.

Heronscale's ears twitched. Another white cat? No wonder Iceflight was so interested. He'd seen her before. Wasn't she hard of hearing? How would Iceflight teach her with that if the apprentice could hear fine in her dreams? It would be interesting to watch. Now that he'd gotten his fair share, he was a bit calmer. Even if it hadn't been much fun. Heck, the apprentice had done better.

"It is. Many things are possible within this forest you walk" Iceflight meowed, ushering her into the clearing where the other two cats sat, licking their wounds.
"I know life has been cruel to you, Cloudypaw. You and Pricklepaw have that in common, it seems. But you've been brought here so that you can be in the company of those who see you for what you really are- a warrior capable of greatness, not some bumbling kit who needs to be looked after" Iceflight meowed, her face welcoming. She felt stronger in the presence of the small white she cat- waves of misfortune came off of her like the scent of delicious prey, and Iceflight drank it in like a much needed gulp of water.

Heronscale's whiskers twitched. Of course the she-cat was chosen too. Otherwise there wouldn't have been any reason for her to be here. Mouse-brain. But it did look like Pricklepaw was feeling better. The thrill of a battle was pretty exciting. He glanced down at his own white pelt. Having been dead for so long, it dulled but now it seemed to shimmer in the low light of the dark forest, similar to Iceflight and Cloudypaw.

"That makes one cat in the entire universe who believes that." Cloudypaw muttered, feeling aggravation claw at her heart. She tried to ignore it, but the resentment was too strong for her to even take the praise that the white warrior had given her.
"How can I show them that, if they won't even let me fight with them?" She added, thinking back to when Shadestar had just stuck her up in a tree to be forgotten about, or when Smokepaw would make sure she was with someone she could communicate with, making sure he was on border patrols with her and being annoyingly overprotective. Its like he forgot that she easily bested him whenever they practiced with each other. The white she cats ears pricked when she heard Pricklepaw, and she glanced over, giving her a small nod.
"I guess so." She responded, her voice being forced to be louder than a whisper.

Shadestar awoke in her den, her eyes bright as she walked onto the ledge. Clan life seemed normal once more, the clan had seemed to have healed. Though to her, everything had changed every day.
Starlingpaw was walking along camp, she had a minor limp still, but compared to her earlier condition, she was doing amazing. She ran into the medicine cat den gently, and looked at Twistedpath, "Can I go out of camp, and train and stuff with the other apprentices?" She asked, tipping her head to the side as she waited for the answer.

Florasky was in camp, she sighed though, the flower Shiningsoul gave her had since wilted, and she kept it to remember his kindness. To show she cared, even though she never received an answer, she had pondered upon it for the moons that passed. What did he mean? She had no honest clue, but her feelings for him from her apprentice ship where coming back to life, even if she didn't want them to.

Thornclover padded over to Florasky. "Looks like a big storm is coming." Thornclover slightly flicked his tail in fear.

Iceflight was thoroughly enjoying the apprentices malice, and resisted the urge to lick her lips hungrily. They ate no prey in this forest, but instead sustained themselves off of the negative energy of the cats in the living world. Iceflight particularly enjoyed the feelings of betrayal and discontent produced from the white cats of the clan.
She nodded sympathetically at Cloudypaw "Yes, I'm well aware of their irrational feelings. The silver lining is that now that you have us, you no longer have to worry about forcing your clanmates, who really aren't that capable of helping you reach your potential anyway, to actually train with you. Here, there are many capable warriors who will battle against you with their full strength- which is exactly what you deserve."

Scarletpool watched from a safe distance away. He had overheard them and decided to see what was going on. She wondered what her fellow Dark Forest cats were planning. (Hope this is okay)

( Hey guys. I'm still around. If I'm needed in something please tag me or let me know somewhere.
If I'm supposed to be doing something let me know too. I'm really sick and can barely talk or breathe right now so I'm trying to just live at the moment lol.
Let me know though if I need to type something up or missed something important.
I'm pretty sure everyone aged 2 moons, but I don't have the kits planned yet and I wanted her to look like she was gonna pop for a while honestly. Autumn's kits are probably going to be 2 weeks old maybe? I still need to make them... I don't want to give them personality because its hard to give kits their own personalities from birth... I'll try to type up some descriptions later though. I'm currently on 3 hours of sleep because of the sickness.
Just wanted yall to know I'm still here and still care. I'm just sick and the clan was dead so I wasn't checking every day. Sorry. )

( Onyx feel better soon! Yes, definitely get those kits out whenever you'd like to. We'd all love to meet them P: ) ( Yeah hawk, step on up! Would Scarletpool want to mentor a trainee or just watch...? ) Iceflight turned her gaze to Pricklepaw and Slatestorm, who were looking excruciatingly exhausted. 'Good, then they'd have something to remember when they woke up..' She padded over to first Pricklepaw and then Slatestorm.
"You are finished for tonight. Consider this a reflection of your future training, and be ready when we summon you again. This is the first pawstep towards greatness, and I see both of you rising to the challenge. Wake now and be loyal to your clans, for soon they will begin to see you for the warriors you truly are" She meowed, and touched the top of their heads in turn with their maw. With an exhausted tremble, each of them faded like smoke from the dark landscape.
Turning her attention back to Cloudypaw, she flicked her ears, her gaze level at the small white cat. She waited as everything sunk in for the apprentice. |

"Right now what I need you to do is focus on becoming the best warrior you possibly can" Iceflight meowed simply.
"The misty land you currently stand in is a battleground created for those cats who devoted themselves to the pursuit of strength and prowess in life. We who are here continue to focus on our skills and train other members of Twilightclan after we pass from the living world. The cats of our clan are not training their young cats as they should- They are allowing weakness and prejudice to rot the clan from the inside out. Warriors like you struggle for recognition while others live careless, easy lives. I have seen your heart and I know that you feel the injustice of this."
Iceflight paced forwards in front of Cloudypaw, as if stalking around a prey animal. She kept her eyes on Cloudypaw, monitoring her expression, letting her words slowly sink in as she spoke.
"Cloudypaw, I see your potential. We seek to train the forgotten warriors, cats like yourselves, into the powerful clan cats they were meant to be. You have been chosen for greatness- something which your clan will never give you."

Ivypaw's whiskers twitched. Well, now he knew where Badgerheart had gotten his rather overly dramatic way of recruiting. Although it seemed to be working. Saltestorm and Pricklepaw clearly responded well to it. Would Cloudypaw do the same? Would Iceflight have another cat fight the white apprentice or was that it for the night? Darksand had told him he could watch to see how Iceflight handled things, but he had to keep quiet. Not that that was much of an issue for the black apprentice. His pelt blended in with the dark forest with ease. And the spot he'd chosen would help to hide his eyes from catching attention.
Although Darksand had talked about training to prove his clanmates wrong, he hadn't gone into things like his clanmates showing weakness and prejudice. Or maybe that was just because he was talking with Ivypaw, -kit back then, and it hadn't meant much to him. Still really didn't. And that tended to get talks from Badgerheart, but Ivypaw never really connected to anyone. And now that he was older, that need to was gone.
Heronscale didn't seem to be able to restrain himself very well. Granted Slatestorm should have been better prepared, but still. Did all cats from the dark forest get that kind of withdraw? He knew they 'fed' off of the ill feelings of the living, so Iceflight was probably gorging herself. Where did Darksand feed from? Ivypaw could hardly be considered an ill-will feeling cat. Not really anyways. He just didn't have a lot of cares if any...Did the ancients feed off different things depending on how they died? It would make sense so that Darksand could stay in the background where he preferred. Although Ivypaw had no idea how either died. But was Iceflight the reason white cats were shunned? He never fully understood that. Didn't others know cats didn't choose their pelt colors?
