l i g h t t r o t -- camp
Lighttrot dipped his head to Owlnight as he approached, blinking at the prey he was carrying with him. His ear flicked lightly at the talk- speculating about warrior names was a fun thing to do, honestly, and Rosedapple had been so happy to chat about what she thought their warrior names would be when they were going to get them. The memory made him smile warmly before he shot an annoyed glare at Icewhisker- did she have to be so picky? Couldn't she just calm down? Careful, you're getting me annoyed now, he thought sourly before raising his head and sniffing haughtily.
"It's not like Rosedapple told me what his favorite names were," he huffed, looking away from her and turning to Owlnight. "She just shared a few of them. I can't memorize every single name Sagepaw hopes for, even if I love him with all of my heart."

s u n h i g h i c e w h i s k e r c a m p  "That's sad. If my sister had kits, I'd memorize every name they'd think of!" she scoffed, rolling her eyes at the tom. She sat down, giving Lighttrot the most not amused look she could give. "I'm starting to wonder if we should just go ahead. We've been waiting forever." the she--cat whined, throwing her head back to complain more. "I'd like to take a nap when I get back. Ugh.." She sounded like an apprentice, to be honest. A very picky, whiny apprentice. |

Bearpaw - Camp  Bearpaw was milling around camp, no doubt trying not to fight off the distaste of seeing his littermate go off with the leader who was very obviously not all there. He lay down in a huff, tail loosely curling around his body. His eyes were unfocused, lingering on the dust that lazily drifted through the air in front of him. In the distance, he heard his mother screech about the lack of sparrows on the pile and he sneered to himself, Well go get some yourself he wanted to say, lips curled back over teeth in a soundless snarl. His tail, which had been steadily thumping harder against the ground, sent a cloud of dust into his eyes causing him to near squeal. Bearpaw's paws immediately engaged in rubbing at his eyes, a low whine of discomfort sounding in his throat. "Oww" the apprentice complained.

s a g e p a w -- camp
StarClan, when would his mother stop fussing over him? It seemed like it had been years since Rosedapple had started cleaning him, purring about what a wonderful warrior he would be. Stop, mother, he wanted to say, stop, but he was just this side of shy- he wouldn't speak out against his mother. There wasn't any way that would end well.
Seeing Bearpaw a short distance away from him, he saw his opportunity. "Sorry, mother," he chirped softly, pulling out of her hold. "Need to talk to Bearpaw about, um..." What would he say? He was going to mess it all up, he knew it. "...Apprentice stuff."
He stared at her. She stared back. Eventually her mouth quirked up into a smile as she nudged him with a paw, sending him off. "Well." Her eyes were filled with mirth. "You go do your apprentice stuff, then, Sagepaw." She chuckled as he walked off, feeling like his fur was a bright red.
Apprentice stuff. StarClan, he was so stupid that he might as well be called Sagefur. Something boring, like Birchstar was sure to do if he didn't fail his assessment. He sighed as he sat down next to Bearpaw, brushing his side with his tail in a greeting. "Are you alright?" His voice was as kind as always, friendlier than many cats. He hadn't had much reason to talk to Bearpaw, being an older apprentice and almost a warrior, but it was nice to occasionally chat. "That looked painful."

Bearpaw - Camp Bearpaw's head snapped to Sagepaw, his whole body curled into a defensive position. His heart racing, for a fearful second the youth thought it was his mother who'd come over. Softening his position, Bearpaw tilted his head, giving his eyes one last rub. "Yeah I'll be fine though." He squinted at the older tom, "You seem a bit frazzled" A blunt statement, but Sagepaw did seem a bit overeager to escape the clutches of Rosedapple. Remembering his manners, Bearpaw gestured for the other cat to sit, "sit down before she comes over" he murmured lowly. He knew what an over attentive mother was. His mother is nice though. The thought whispered through his mind, but Bearpaw shut it down. Refocusing on Sagepaw, Bearpaw waited.

s a g e p a w -- camp
Sagepaw startled a bit when Bearpaw's head snapped over to him, eyes wide before he smiled softly. Sitting down next to him, his tail swished lightly. "Thank you," he mumbles, touched a bit by the kindness. "She's been cleaning me for daaays," he groaned, rolling his eyes. "Seriously." A moment of silence followed as he tried to figure out what to say to the younger apprentice, humming uncertainly.
"So...how's your apprenticeship going?" He was horrible at conversations. So, so horrible.Coding by ５ ❙ ＡＭ, icon image by officialrainleafwcf |

s u n h i g h t h o r n p a w f o r e s t  Keeping up the tom followed his elderly leader out of the camp. When they reached a decent spot, the tom informed the ThunderClan tom where he was going. Upon the scent of a squirrel, Thornpaw slid into a hunting crouch. He studied the prey, keeping a close eye on it. The smell of a fresh squirrel enticed the tom and he held in a purr at the thought of catching it and eating it for later. However, another scent called for Thornpaw's attention. He seemed confused, never scenting it before. It did not sit well on his tongue as he opened his jaws in hopes of identifying the creature. When he heard a twig snap, the tom turned wide-eyed and became face to face with a fox cub. Not knowing what to do, he backed up, fluffed his fur and hissed ferociously at the enemy. He yowled and growled, hoping Birchstar would hear his calls and see, then run to camp. |

Birchstar 
Birchstar wandered through the forest with Thornpaw nearby, but the two soon split up to hunt, with Thornpaw heading in the opposite direction of Birchstar. The leader tracked the scent of sparrow, creeping stiffly through some bushes. When the wind shifted abruptly, Birchstar paused, distracted by the movements. The sparrow flitted off and Birchstar, forgetting about the bird, padded over to investigate a small tuft of ginger fur stuck in a nearby thorn bush. He opened his mouth, drawing the scent in and recognizing the scent of fox. A growl rose in his throat and he whipped around, searching for the threat. The scent was fresh enough that the fox couldn't have passed by too long ago.
That fool! He thought he could lead me out here and let a fox get me! Birchstar couldn't scent his Clanmates nearby, but they were surely watching, waiting for him to fall at the jaws of a mangy old fox. He was trying to figure out what his best course of action was to be, when he heard Thornpaw cry out for help. He circled around rapidly until he could see the apprentice and his matted pelt bristled. "Climb a tree, Thornpaw! I'll fetch a patrol."
The elderly leader wheeled around without waiting for a response and raced off for camp, moving as fast as his stiff, worn body would move. He was easily winded and puffing before he'd gotten halfway to camp, but he kept pushing himself. His wide, yellow eyes searched around rapidly for anyone he might meet along the way, but he finally got close to camp and set off, shrieking his head off. "Fox! Get a patrol together! Thornpaw needs help! Fox!"

s u n h i g h t h o r n p a w f o r e s t "Right!" he called, turning heel and racing to the nearest tree. The tom slipped once, and as punishment, received a nasty gash on his back thigh. He clung to the tree as the fox tried to claw and bite for him. He pushed through the pain, hoping someone would come save him. "At least Birchstar is safe." he thought with relief.
The gash stung and bled, which made the apprentice whimper in pain. This caused the fo to become more and more interested in its attempts to climb the tree. Thornpaw wished he had fully learned about climbing trees,as he may have to escape to a different one soon. The branch he was on was also weak, but the tom's strength was waning.
s u n h i g h i c e w h i s k e r c a m p "And you're always flirting and slacking off!" she hissed at him. Her nostrils flared and the she-cat looked very upset. "Just because I want to take a nap doesn't mean I'm a whiny apprentice. Instead of lecturing me, how about you do your duties properly." Icewhisker added, turning her head to ignore him. As far as she was concerned, she was done dealing with the tom at this rate. He was being rude to her, or so she thought.
Then, she heard Birchstar's call about a fox. Her interest peaked and she stood. "Let's go!" she told the small patrol. She waited a moment, seeing other warriors in camp. "They'll take care of Birchstar." she thought as she took off. She followed Birchstar's scent to the area that the fox was. When she scented it, the she-cat almost choked on the horrid stench. Crouching, she spotted the two a bit away. "So what do we want to do?" she asked in a whisper, still assessing the situation. |

Rustletail |x| ThunderClan Camp|x| Sunhigh
Rustletail hated slow mornings. That feeling in one's bones after hours of laziness, had too long occupied itself in his idle body. Yet the cursed sun had stretched it's beams across the camp, and he did not wish to move from his spot. Sighing, he gazed aimlessly at the twisted patterns the sun cast down upon his home. Despite himself still being a warrior, the tom couldn't help but feel old as his memory brought up countless adventures he'd had within it's protective walls.
Nevermind about that, his mind scolded playfully. If you keep thinking you're old, then one day you'll wake up and it will be true. Rustletail moved his paw closer to his body, as if preparing to finally rise to his paws. But the tom hesitated. His ears had heard an unusual sound, one that sent concern pulsing through his core. It was the clatter of paws drumming towards the camp, a cat racing through the forest. Now he dared not delay, and was on his paws within seconds. When Birchstar charged through the entrance, he step forward preparing for a formal order instead of the loud screech that followed.
"Fox!" Birchstar had cried. One word and Rustletail was moving towards the entrance. When he saw Icewhisker gathering a patrol, he felt no ounce of doubt as he headed over to join her. Then in a blur, they were off, panicked feet thundering across the soft forest floor. He did not know if his heart had beat once during the chaos, everything seemed to have happened in a moment. But their leader's scent was reliable, and soon the scent of fox was a recognizable reek among the other forest smells.
Mixed in with the ringing in his head, he heard Icewhisker's question. "We don't want it to settle in our territory," he grumbled to himself. "So it needs to be driven out now." Pausing he checked the area for Thornpaw's scent. It was still strong. "But first we need to make sure Thornpaw is out of harm's way." He added raising his voice ever so slightly to make sure the she-cat overheard him.

s u n h i g h i c e w h i s k e r f o r e s t She nodded in response to the warrior, but something caught her eye about the fox. Realization hit her hard and she felt a rush of relief. "It's not full grown. It's not a cub, either." she mewed. Since Rustletail was the eldest, she'd follow his call. He had the most experience with foxes. However, Icewhisker had an idea of how to deal with the creature.
"Three of us could pin it. One of us goes around and stalks it from the side, another can get it from the rear over there. Someone here so it can only go forward if there is a fail in the plan. You can give the signal and when it's pinned, we have Thornpaw get down and someone escorts him to camp." she suggested, turning to face the senior warrior. "Not the best plan, but you know.."
She offered to go to the other side, but awaited for the tom's approval. While she felt killing it would be better, something gnawed at her. If it was young, then that means its parents could be in ThunderClan territory. Rustletail was right to want to chase it out, as the parents should follow it. However, there was only so much the patrol would know. [People can still join in on this if they want and can. If not, there will be other chances to deal with a fox.] |

Rustletail |x| Forest|x| Sunhigh
Rustletail noticed the fox's age just as Icewhisker's voice reached his ears. Which, during any other encounter would have been embarrassing to the tom. Of course, with adrenaline pumping through his body with the strength of a falling boulder, the warrior pushed all his thoughts of shame away. Right now he needed to focus. If he choked in the middle of battle his clanmates would pay the price. Shaking his head, he inhaled strongly letting the fox scent bathe his nostrils. If there were more in the area, he didn't want to draw their attention to the smaller patrol. Much to his dismay, the reek was too overwhelming to properly analyze.
Then we're going to have to risk it. His voice hissed in his head. When Icewhisker proposed her plan, Rustletail made sure he thought over everything that could go wrong before slowly nodding in agreement. "That sounds like a plan," he said cautiously, trying to find out why there was uncertainty in the younger cat's voice. If there was a fault in it that she knew of, he hoped she would share.
Pressing his paw into the ground, Rustletail felt impatience swamp over him. If the group dawdled any longer, who knows what could happen. "I say we go with it." He decided, not even waiting for her response to his previous inquiry.

[Go ahead! The apprentice will most likely have their name or will be earning it soon depending on their age. There's a current plot where the current medicine cat may step down for a while. I'll be replying to everyone that needs a reply! Perhaps Brambleheart can join in with Mudlark and Sunsong?] |

s u n h i g h i c e w h i s k e r f o r e s t Nodding, she obeyed the orders of the senior warrior. Her plan would be set in motion and she needed to move into position. She crept around, keeping her eyes on the fox. Her glare could set the fox ablaze with how much hatred and anger she had in her gaze. She gave a sign to Rustletail, letting him know she was in position.
Concern gnawed at her, distracting her. The fox cub may be left alone if they chase it out, if its parents were around, they could intervene. Her plan may not work to the full extent that she wished. ThunderClan could still possibly deal with foxes down the road. She was too focused on the future and had to give her head a slight shake to clear her mind from her worries. "Focus." she thought to herself, her lips forming a snarl. She held a growl deal in her throat; now was not the time to attract the fox's attention. Icewhisker needed to wait for Rustletail's signal to jump in and pin the beast to the dry earth. [People can still join in on this if they want and can. If not, there will be other chances to deal with a fox.] |

BUT, I will not leave you hanging.] s u n h i g h b r a m b l e h e a r t f o r e s t  Padding up to his mate, Brambleheart purred a greeting and gave a loving nudge. "How are you?" The tom looked around, noting his apprentice was busy at the moment. "You seem distracted. Have I done something to anger you?" the ThunderClan deputy asked him. With the stress he's been under, seeing Sunsong helped put him at ease. Ever since he became deputy, Sunsong had been supportive and understanding of his duties. |
