Cloverfur Caught himself humming quietly on patrol & Hunting patrol || with Hawkheart, Blizzardpaw Cloverfur opened his eyes to the new day, now early leafbare. The sky was gloomy and overcast, a promise of rain should they need it. Another day to train his apprentice. Not that he didn't not enjoy training Blizzardpaw, he loved training apprentices! It was just that this was his third apprentice. The younger warriors Duststep, Hawkheart, and Daisytuft hadn't gotten an apprentice yet here he was hogging them all. It wasn't really fair, was it?
Calling over Blizzardpaw, he was joined today by Hawkheart. He was pretty sure the two hadn't gone on many patrols together, but in truth it didn't matter. They could have a bonding experience, or they could not. His main focus was training Blizzardpaw and to continue to make sure she was safe, as well as make sure his clan was fed. It wouldn't be long until the prey hid away in their burrows, and there wouldn't be much plump prey to eat.
As the most senior warrior of the three (that was weird! He was still considered a young warrior himself, but he guessed he wasn't the youngest warrior now) Cloverfur led the way out of camp, a determined expression on his face. It was only a few minutes in that he realized he was humming a tune! He stopped as soon as he realized it, but a goofy smiled stayed on his face. "Oops! Sorry guys!"
They had yet to scent much prey, and they prey that they had scented was old. They were getting closer to their border with the twolegplace, and the mixed scent of twolegs, dogs and Plumclan cats all met here. The Plumclan smell was the strongest, Cloverfur happily realized.
Was that...? Yes! The scent of prey, right there on the tip of his tongue! "Rat!" He mewed, pinpointing it. Blizzardpaw must have realized it at the same time he did and started to creep forward, as did Cloverfur. "Wait! Blizzardpaw!" He mewed, but it was too late. Blizzardpaw had already caught the rat, letting the blood of it into her mouth. Too late had any of them catch the smell the rat was giving off. Disease. "Bury it, quickly. That rat is sick, and it might make you sick as well. Do you feel alright?" He worried, quickly making his way over to Blizzardpaw in two short, quick strides.
[[ poor Blizzard! she HAS to make it though, understand game? UNDERSTAND? ]]

Hawkheart hunting patrol with blizzardpaw and cloverfur." Bury it, quickly. That rat is sick, and it might make you sick as well. Do you feel alright?" Cloverfur said to the apprentice as hawkheart walked over to the rat.- " Its sick all right." He said and jumped over to where blizzardpaw stood.- " ill should call the medicine cat for help if blizzardpaw is seriously ill." Hawkheart looked at the apprentice and raised an eye brow as if to ask if he was okay. tagging- stormshade1 (Blizzardpaw) Dew (Cloverfur)

Currentkit Is fond of Silverkit & Appreciates that Silverkit always has her back (+++) || with names Currentkkit loved her siblings. She loved them even more in fact, now that there were two more kits in the nursery. The kits had been found on patrol, but they were invading her den. They were snuggling up to her mother. Were they supposed to be her siblings? One of the cats, Hatch- something (she had never bothered to learn his name before now) kept visiting them, and she wondered if they were his kits. If they were, why wasn't he nursing them? It wasn't fair they got to steal her mother!
This whole thing was pushing her closer to her littermates. She really liked Silverkit, her sister seemed to be the polar opposite of her. She was quiet and polite, and she thought things through before she did them. Currentkit was quick to jump into action without the details, and her restless sleep had had her section of the nest destroyed over and over. Some things Silverkit did Currentkit didn't understand, but it was fine. Today, Silverkit was her favorite littermate.
Silverkit just always had her back! One time Currentkit had tried to sneak out(because why did they have to stay in camp when the bigger cats got to come and go as they pleased?!) but was caught by one of the warriors, and Silverkit had been quick to defend her, saying that she just wanted to peak her head into the fresh-kill pile (that had prompted her to stick her head into the fresh-kill pile the next day). They had been sent back to the nursery and had joked about it afterward. Much better than the new kits and Hatch something! @tag [[ I love Hatch and I love the new kits. Currentkit just has mixed feelings rn XD watch her become med apprentice on a whim and Hatch be her mentor ]]

Leopardcry Admires Cherriberry {--} with Cherriberry It wasn’t long since Leopardcry had left the nursery. Her only kit; Blizzardkit, no, Blizzardpaw was now an apprentice, under Cloverfur’s guidance. Leopardcry trusted the warrior to train her kit, as he had trained two before. She hadn’t wanted to go back already, she didn’t feel like she needed to, but the medicine cat had insisted. She padded wearily back to the nursery, almost relishing the warmth and smell of milk from when she had stayed in here before. She carefully moved around the tussling ring of kits around Cherriberry, and sat down comfortably in her new nest. The kits were already asking Leopardcry questions, many of them about warrior tasks and duties. She purred at the onslaught of kit questions, until Cherriberry called her kits back to her with a flick of her tail. “Come now, leave her to rest.” The molly meowed, and her kits had listened. Not only did Cherriberry have her own litter of kits, she was now nursing two tiny newborn kits that Hatchhusk had found outside of the territory. Leopardcry admired the queen, she was a great mother to take kits that weren’t her own. Leopardcry wished she had been that great of a mother. I’ll be even better for my new kits, she told herself, as she comfortably lied down, flicking her tail over her nose and drifted off into sleep. tags Can’t wait to see next moon!

WILLOWMOUSE Listens to Fawnstar's advice. - x - x Willowmouse blinked awake from her midday doze (her new hobby) at the sound of paw steps. Ah, Fawnstar. She tried for an appropriately aloof nuzzle in return, but the purr that kicked up in her throat thoroughly cut down her attempt at nonchalance. Now all she needed was Daisytuft on her other side to really de-fang what remained of her image!
"How's retirement treating you?" Fawnstar asked as she took a seat at her side.
"I need a new body," Willowmouse grumbled in reply, "I've never been so bored in my life." It seemed like all she did now was sleep and eat! She was desperate enough she'd volunteered to do moss duty.
" I hope you’ve been resting. Elders get aching joints worse in leaf-bare, and pushing yourself too much won’t help." Fawnstar teased, much to the elder brown molly's dismay.
Her fur fluffed a bit, a frown tugging at her features. Grumpy as she looked, Willowmouse's tone was light as she snipped back, "that advice sounds awfully familiar- you tell Amberdapple to come do her own dirty work!"

Hatchhusk Hatchhusk padded across the camp happily. It may have been the depths of leaf-bare, but you wouldn’t have noticed if you looked at him. But what did he have to feel bad about now? His training was enjoyable and engaging, the fresh-kill pile was full, even with all the new kits, and he didn’t even have to venture out of camp since it was too cold for herbs to grow. And speaking of fresh-kill… He licked his lips as he watched his littermate Hawkheart walk out for a patrol. “Hey, remember to catch something for me! Medicine cats need food, too!” He purred.
Settling into the medicine den with Amberdapple to check over the herbs, Hatchhusk’s mind kept wandering to the last moon. That voice on the wind… It had to be StarClan, right? It certainly led me to the right place to save those kits, after all. “Amberdapple… How do you know when StarClan is talking to you?” He asked, wondering if it would be the same for the more experienced she-cat. “Is it more of a pull? Or do you see actual cats talking to you?”

Lilacshade with Fogshard and Wildclove Lilacshade waited for her patrol to form, relishing the sharp cold air of the leaf-bare morning. “Thank you for covering my dusk patrol for me, Auburnpath. You know how I don’t like it when it gets colder before your return. Maybe that’s me getting old, but…” she trailed off in front of the younger warrior. She may be a little aggressive, but Auburnpath could certainly be quite useful.
Now with Fogshard and Wildclove in tow, Lilacshade was about to break off to hunt when a loud yapping was heard. Jumping up onto a log for a better vantage point, she sprang back down before muttering to them in a low voice. “It’s a dog. Not one of them they keep on the field, it’s one of those little ones from the twoleg’s den. Wildclove… You were a kittypet, do you remember something like that?”
As the small dog came tearing after them, Lilacshade stood her ground, batting it on the nose as the others backed her up. Going on the offensive, she chased it in a circle, before sending it yapping back to its twolegs. Certainly it wasn’t as scary as a normal dog… That was actually pretty fun. Lilacshade and the others returned with a new spring in their steps.
OOC -- Lilacshade Lilacshade dodged Rindlestripe’s blow, sliding to the side as they lunged at her. It’s good to spar, even in this weather. Gets the blood pumping, she thought, crashing down on them with two paws. The two rolled about, then broke apart to catch their breaths. “Ah… Hey, I meant to ask… You must be proud of Hatchhusk, aren’t you?”
Rindlestripe nodded. “I’m happy he’s found his way now… I was worried, for a while.”
Lilacshade smiled. “So I wasn’t the only one.” The molly got back to her paws. “He’s really brave, actually. Standing up and taking control of his life like that? I’m proud of him, even if he won’t be serving as a warrior next to me. It makes me think he did learn something from my mentorship after all.” She purred, dipping her head away.

Duststep Hunting patrol with Hawkheart and ForestfreckleDuststep led the hunting patrol through the orchard along the edge of the corn field. The scenery was always dull this time of year, but right now it was dusted with a thick snow that left a trail of pawprints wherever she walked. This type of weather was the worst for hunting; the sun reflecting off the snow was so bright it hurt her eyes, but at the same time the trio of cats stood out easily to prey against the wintry white background. Nonetheless, she owed it to her clan to try. She slowed, opening her mouth slightly and holding her head high, to try to catch a whiff of any prey that could be nearby. After a moment, she caught the scent of a rodent upwind to her left in the cornfield, and flicked her ear to signal to Hawkheart and Forestfreckle to stay back while she caught it. She crouched and slowly stalked into the corn field towards where she had detected the scent, until she spotted a large brown mouse grooming itself hidden between the stalks. She stopped and prepared to pounce at it, but before she could, the call of a hawk sounded abovehead and sent the mouse scrambling through the field away from her. She gave chase, but it was already gone, having disappeared into its burrow somewhere nearby. "Rats!" she hissed before sighing and getting up to make her way back towards the other two, kicking a stalk of corn on her way. "I hope the rest of the patrol isn't as awful as that was. Do either of you see anything?"Tagging: Hawkheart (Hawkheart), tigersdoroar (Forestfreckle) Waves to Rindlestripe when she sees him across the orchard! | Catches up to Rindlestripe to walk with himDuststep skipped across the orchard, humming lightly under her breath. It was an uncharacteristically nice evening for mid-Leafbare, the snow thin and the temperature warmer than usual, and she had decided to go for a walk to enjoy it. She took her time marvelling at all the little details of the orchard she had never noticed in the many times she'd been there, the weaving patterns of the tree branches and the way the sunset glinted off the fresh snow. As she took in her surroundings, she spotted Rindlestripe across the way, also on a walk, and lifted her paw to wave at him. I haven't talked with Rindlestripe much, I don't know him well. But I should get out of my shell more... He's good at climbing trees, isn't he? I'd love to see what this beautiful view looks like from a better vantage point. I'll ask him if he can teach me how, she thought as she bounded over to the older warrior to join him on his walk. "Hi, Rindlestripe. Um, it's a nice evening, isn't it? I didn't expect to see anyone else out here."

LeopardcryNursery {--} with her kits, Cloverfur Leopardcry purred as she stared down at her new litter. 5 kits! That was more than she ever thought she could have. Pumpkinkit, Marshkit and Fallowkit her tiny molly kits, and Blazekit and Bumblekit her two toms. Only just when she had went to rest, she had been visited by Jamilah, the new medicine cat. She was carrying 3 bundles of kits, and with a sigh, Leopardcry had taken care of them. The golden molly was well out of her league with 8 tiny newborn kittens, but Cherriberry was staying inside the nursery, which gave Leopardcry some hope.
The cat she hadn’t expected to come so soon, had entered the nursery before long. Cloverfur. The father of her kits. “They’re wonderful, aren’t they?” She purred to him, nudging along to give him some room to look at their litter. Leopardcry couldn’t wait to see her kits grow up and become apprentices, and one day proud warriors of Plumclan. Even the kits that weren’t hers, she would help them grow too. She stared at Cloverfur, her amber eyes glistening with pride. “You’ll be a great father.” [[ Is there such a thing as too many kits? ]]

Auburncreek Hunting Patrol {--} with Rindlestripe Before Auburncreek had left camp with her past mentor, she had nodded to Lilacshade, thanking her for covering her. Anything to get out of the kit-filled camp, Auburncreek told herself, it felt like every step she had to watch under her paws for rustling kits. Kits were future warriors, yes, but it felt like there was starting to become more kits than warriors at this point! Cherriberry was sitting at the front of the nursery, watching her kits. Leopardcry was in there too, with 2 litters of kits! Auburncreek reminded herself, but looking at Cherriberry, she admired her patience. Auburncreek found it hard to be so patient with kits sometimes.
Following Rindlestripe, they started a conversation. “I remember you first time you left territory. You were as excitable as a kit just out of the nursery,” Her mentor purred. She nodded, but she wasn’t focused on the conversation. She heard the scuffling of a mouse, and no one could be picky in this weather. She got into her crouching position, and leaped, catching the mouse in a swift bite. She stood back up to stare at Rindlestripe, the mouse dangling from her jaws. “Enough to feed the onslaught of kits?” She teased her mentor, and they soon continued on their patrol together, padding wearily in the snow.

Cloverfur Visits his five new kits! || with Leopardcry, Pumpkinkit, Marshkit, Blazekit, Fallowkit and Bumblekit Cloverfur shivered into his pelt, the cold biting into his paws. It was mid-leafbare now, and snow had started to fall. Luckily Blizzardpaw had recovered from her sickness quickly, and she could train again. Leopardcry's kit. The she-cat had been on his mind lately, for certain... reasons.
His paws were numb now, he had been pacing outside of the nursery since Leopardcry had started kitting. Some clanmates had given him some curious looks, but he had ignored them. A few moons ago, Cloverfur had come to Leopardcry and they had both admited that they wanted kits (or more in her case). Three moons later, here they were.
"You can go in." Jamilah informed him, and he padded into the nursery. The den was warmer than the others, maybe it was because of all the little bodies in there or the fact it was more insulated than the other dens. His eyes caught on Leopardcry first, then the five kits snuggling up to her belly. Cloverfur wanted to look at them more, snuggle them and spoil them, but his duty was to Leopardcry first. The kits probably wouldn't remember this moment, but she would. "Are you doing okay?" He asked, still standing.
“They’re wonderful, aren’t they?” She purred, and Cloverfur sat down, admiring their kits. His kits. "They are! Although-" He wrinkled his nose playfully, "They do look a lot like you. Only Marshkit and Fallowkit look like they could be mine!" He purred, laughing silently. "Of course, it doesn't really matter."
They sat in silence for a bit, the sounds of mewling filling the nursery. It was getting pretty crowded in here with Cherriberry's litter and Leopardcry's not to mention the kits Hatchhusk found last moon on patrol. “You’ll be a great father.” Leopardcry purred again, and he purred as well. "Thank you, you'll be a great mother as well, just like you were to Blizzardpaw." Was it weird that he just had kits with his apprentice's mother? No, it's fine. It's not like we're mates or anything. [[ I'll get Clover/Blizzard patrol up later or tomorrow! ]]

Wildclove Craves salmon
Wildclove bristles, just a little “Just ‘cause I was a kittypet doesn't mean i know everything ‘bout twolegs”
He was still getting used to the clan terms for things, it was a big adjustment going from pampered (well sorta he supposes) pet life to a rough and tumble clan one. The tom flatted his fur and leaned closer to Lilacshade- determined not to ruin his clan relationships so soon.
“But yeah, ‘have, my twolegs had a bigger one but them sorta puppies are all bark. One good swipe and they're yowling away.” He winces at a very loud bark, almost on cue. “Mostly just annoyin’”
He watches Lilacshade chase the dog away, raising his tail in absolute smugness.
“Nice one, Hate those dogs” And just dogs in general- His twolegs own was incredibly annoying. Most of the time anyways- he did like how warm the beast was when it was sleeping.

Hawkheart on a hunting patrol! "I hope the rest of the patrol isn't as awful as that was. Do either of you see anything?" Duststep said to them and hawkheart looked around and saw that the hawk that annoyed duststeps catch was over a hill and hawkheart signeled with a flick of his tail to have them follow him. He led his partners to a clearing and pointed with his tail to scraps of hawk fresh-kill. "That might work to bring home?" He said and walked over to it sniffing it and said- "Yes! this will work!"

"Hey, remember to catch something for me! Medicine cats need food, too!” Hatchhusk purred to him and hawkheart said- "I know!" He still didn't know why his brother had made the dissision to be a medicine cat in the first place but he respected what he wanted "Here you go!" He purred to his brother laying down a piece of prey at his paws. Tagging- asrise (hatchhusk)

It was a cold winter evening. The sun was setting and in a few moments, it will soon be nighttime. Golddusk carefully lifted his paws as he walked across the snow. He didn’t want to make too much noise since it was a hunting patrol. The setting sun caused the shadow of the tractor barn to stretch long, perfect for hiding from prey. Their target, a large gopher, hides within the rotting wooden pile not too far from them. Golddusk has yet to see the creature but he could scent it from where he was within the shadows of the barn. He felt tempted to chase the gopher and catch it for the clan. However, he knew that chasing the gopher as it currently is now would have meant a huge risk of losing the hunt. He glanced at Fawnstar, wondering if his leader has a plan for catching the gopher. Feathertalon lazzylake

Duststep Hunting patrol with Hawkheart and ForestfreckleShe tilted her head at the carrion with a disappointed look on her face. "It's not what I was hoping for. But I guess it will do." Stepping closer to Hawkheart, she picked at the pile with one claw to dig out the most intact and salvageable-looking scraps of meat from the mostly boney mess. "I would be grateful to the hawk for leaving this for us, if it didn't scare away the actually good prey," she mumbled, before looking up at Hawkheart. "Sorry, I don't mean to seem ungrateful... Thanks for finding this for us. Good idea, coming to look over here."

Havenspots Isn't sure he should be idling around so much
Havenspots wasn't conceited, he’d like to think. He knows his strengths and weaknesses. He's a pretty good fighter all things considered, especially when there's so many in the clan to protect. He can't just stay in camp all the time- idle. He's a warrior and he's gotta act like it!
Havenspots was excited to learn from an elder warrior. It's never too late to learn new skills, Haven believes. So when Duskfeather approached him he felt honoured!
But it's hard not to feel a little discouraged as Duskfeather completely wipes the floor with him. Getting up he shakes the snow from his fur.
“Darn” He mews lightheartedly “I almost had you” He didnt, but the joke tries to ease his bruised ego
OOC: Sorry for the short reply, busy weekend!

Hunting patrol with duststep! good prey," she duststep mumbled, before looking up at Hawkheart. "Sorry, I don't mean to seem ungrateful... Thanks for finding this for us. Good idea, coming to look over here." Even though they were of the same rank and status hawkheart glowed with pride at the words and coughed to not sound to happy- "Thanks!" He said.

Cloverfur Wishes Fawnstar wouldn't give him so much responsibility all the time (-) & Training patrol || with Blizzardpaw Cloverfur set off through the snow with Blizzardpaw at his heels. She was lucky that she had recovered so quickly from the rat poison, barely spending a moon in the medicine den. Now they were right back to training. The few days he had to himself he had spent with his new kits and Leopardcry, as well as brainstorming. He had a lot of ideas of what they could do today.
If I didn't have Blizzardpaw as an apprentice, I would be able to spend almost all day with my kits! Why did Fawnstar had to give him so much responsibility? He was on his third apprentice as still a young warrior. She came to him with extra patrols that needed doing and the like, and it seemed he never got a break! Sure he had been her apprentice, she he knew her well and her him, but he still wanted some downtime to just chill.
Reaching a clearing covered with snow, Cloverfur stopped and turned around to face Blizzardpaw. "We're going to do some drills in the snow together! I have a two thought up, Snow Stalking, Snow Fighting, and then we can try some hunting if we aren't too cold." He flashed Blizzardpaw a smile, before continuing.
"I'll explain each one. In snow stalking, we'll go over how to hunt prey and stalk other cats or animals like foxes or badgers in the deep snow. In Snow Fighting, we'll mostly go over balance and how to keep your footing in the snow. Hunting is self-explanatory, but I don't think we'll get to that today."
"Let's start with Snow Stalking! You want to make sure your pawsteps are extra light so they don't fall through the snow, like this," Cloverfur made his paw across the clearing, his pawsteps slow but light, steady. They made pawprints in the snow, but they didn't sink as low as they might if you were just going on a stroll. "Now you try Blizzardpaw."
[[ I feel like he's in sort of a giddy mood with the snow and his kits ]]

Fawnstar »
Word of a large gopher living among the woodpile that lay up ahead had made its way to Fawnstar. A fresh layer of snow crunched underneath the leader’s paws as she closed the distance between her, her patrol, and the wood pile. A musky scent wafted to her, fresh and warm. The gopher was in its burrow. Hunger clawed at her stomach. PlumClan was lucky to still have a full prey-pile, but with an abundance of kits to feed there was no such thing as too much prey. StarClan had blessed the Clan of the cornfields, but so many kits meant more mouths to feed.
Fawnstar placed on more pawstep closer before she stopped. She motioned for Daisytuft and Golddusk to spread out. If they were going to catch this thing they needed to be ready. ”Daisytuft, head around the woodpile where the light reaches. Golddusk and I will wait in the shadows. If it doesn’t see one of us it’s bound to run where it thinks it’s safe.” As she spoke she motioned for Golddusk to take to the other side of the shadows. Her claws unsheathed. This gopher was coming home with them no matter what.
Daisytuft made the first move as planned; Fawnstar watched as the young molly skillfully stalked near the woodpile, slow and steady enough to not make the gopher dash wildly, but quick enough for the prey animal to realize it was being stalked. ”Get ready,” Fawnstar breathed toward Golddusk, hoping the young tom was prepared.
A hiss from Daisytuft and then a streak of brown escaped from the log pile.
The gopher was quick but Fawnstar was quicker.
A swift pounce and the leader was atop the gopher, fangs sinking into soft flesh. The rush of blood warmed the molly, pride flickering in her chest like a fire as she pulled her head back, gopher dropping limply in front of her paws. Blue eyes beamed proudly toward Daisytuft and Golddusk - they had all done well and now their Clan was going to eat like lions tonight.
Fawnstar »
brings a gift for silverkit, visits leopardcry - polarized & thinks about fogshard's attitude lately - @ -
The nursery was bustling with new lives as of late. Not only had Leopardcry successfully given birth to five new kits with Cloverfur, but three orphaned kits had been brought back to camp, cold and underfed. Both Cherriberry and Leopardcry were taking care of the litter, and Fawnstar had high hopes that all the kits would grow into strong warriors one day.
With a feather as a gift in her mouth the leader strolled into the nursery, mindful of where she placed her paws. With so many kits about she didn’t want to accidentally step on any. The leader’s whiskers twitched fondly as she remembered her own three when they had been kits. How often did she have to stop them from getting under the paws of busy warriors and nurturing queens?
It was Silverkit that Fawnstar first saw as she slid into the milk-scented den. The leader purred as she lay the feather down by the drowning kit. Silverkit would wake up to a nice surprise.
Fawnstar only stopped when she came to stand near Leopardcry, the young molly curled tightly around her kits with a loving gaze looking upon them. Fawnstar’s heart swelled with pride and love - these kits were PlumClan’s future. One day they’d be strong warriors, and perhaps, given time, one would even become the Clan’s leader. ”How are you faring?” Fawnstar asked as she sat down, tail curling neatly around her paws. ”Five kits must be a lot after raising just one.” Her former apprentice surely had her paws full. Fawnstar had been constantly busy with just three to watch, she couldn’t imagine anymore than that!
Tenderness melted her gaze as she stared down at the large litter of five. The two toms looked so much like their mother while the three mollies took after their father Cloverfur. Fawnstar was happy for the new family, two of her former apprentices having settled together to raise kits, yet she couldn’t help but wonder about Leopardcry’s first daughter Blizzardpaw, and the fact that Blizzardpaw was fathered by Fogshard. Fawnstar had never known of Leopardcry and Fogshard of having a true relationship, but the tortoiseshell leader had to wonder if this new litter of Leopardcry’s was the reason for Fogshard’s recent attitude. Perhaps there was something more there that Fawnstar had yet to truly figure out, something that she as leader may need to intervene into if this was to continue and cause a problem between her warriors.
But enough of that. For now she wanted to relish in the new life that was Leopardcry’s litter.

Currentkit Follows Hatchhusk around, pretending to be a healer || with Hatchhusk Currentkit left the nursery, only to find the ground was covered in snow! The stuff was white and powdery, and cold. Currentkit shivered despite her long fur, still soft with kitten fluff. She looked around camp, at all the cats. The nursery was getting too crowded! Her mother was staying with the kits that had been found by Hatchhusk last moon, and then there were seven more kits that had been brought into camp this moon! Four, no, five! Were from a warrior Cloverfur and Leopardcry and three had been brought in by Jamilah.
Spotting Hatchhusk, one of the medicine cats in camp, Currentkit bounding after him. What if she was a medicine cat?! Wouldn't that be cool?! She could treat other cats and be important! Other cats would look up to her!
Currentkit followed Hatchhusk into the medicine den, the tangy smells of herbs sticking to her nose. It wasn't the best smell in the world, but it didn't matter! She was the best medicine cat ever! Her name was ... Currentshade! Or ... Currentleaf! "Hello Hatchhusk, fellow healer. Do you need any help? I'm also a healer! Currentleaf! Or Currentshade... what do you think sounds better?" She asked, bounding over to Hatchhusk.
Could I really be a medicine cat one day? But there were so many... would she be allowed? Did she want to be a medicine cat? Yes! Today she was going to be a medicine cat, maybe tomorrow she could be a warrior. [[ <3 ]]

Golddusk- Hunting patrol with Fawnstar and Daisytuft Golddusk nodded and made his way to where Fawnstar told him to go. He waited at the other side of the shadows and watched as Daisytuft got into position. He unsheathed his claws, getting ready to pounce in case the gopher goes his way. A few moments later, he saw a brown streak rush from the woodpile. The gopher was faster than he expected but fortunately it did not come in Golddusk’s direction. It instead went towards Fawnstar and then he saw Fawnstar catching the gopher. With the hunt now over and the gopher successfully caught, he sheathed his claws. He walked over to Fawnstar and told her, “Congratulations on catching that gopher!” He is glad that the hunt went as successfully as it did since it meant more food for Plumclan now that it has a lot more cats than it did before.

Duskfeather- Wants to take a break/Sparring with Havenspots Lots of change has happened recently in the clan. Apprentices have been namesd warriors, Willowmouse retired, and oh so many kits have joined. It was… overwhelming to say the least. You couldn’t get anywhere near the nursery without hearing constant kit mewing and ear piercing cries. Duskfeather had considered multiple times throughout his life having a possible mate and kits, but he wasn’t exactly sure that was what he wanted. Plus, he had deputy duties. They will be future clan warriors, I should be happy. But now, being in camp was irritating, so Duskfeather had been taking a lot more walks around the territory, like he did when he was younger, just trying to reflect on things. Willowmouse’s retirement reminded Duskfeather his time would come eventually too. Willowmouse was but an apprentice when Duskfeather was born, so the age difference wasn’t too big. He didn’t want to accept that he would be stepping down from his position, and he was surely going to push retirement as much as he could, but it would be inevitable. He wondered who will become deputy after him. Maybe Cloverfur. Sure, he was young, but he was on his third apprentice now, so it was clear Fawnstar trusted him. However, for now, Duskfeather was still fit and ready for battle. Upon arriving back to camp, he noticed Havenspots, one of Fawnstar’s kits. He was a promising fighter, just like his sister, but didn’t have her ferocity. He was calm and sweet. You wouldn’t believe those two were siblings. He trotted up to Havenspots and invited the ginger warrior for a sparring match. “Hello, Havenspots. Your battle skills have impressed me from afar. I was wondering if you would like to go out with me to do some sparring, and hopefully mutually help each other out.” The initial mock battle was… not even a contest. Duskfeather cleanly and quickly spotted flaws in Havenspots’ stance, and managed to exploit those while dodging his quick attacks. Remembering one of the battle moves he workshopped with Willowmouse just a few moons before, he jumped annd bounced off of a nearby tree and landed on top on Havenspots, essentially defeating him. “I almost had you”, Havenspots said. Duskfeather smiled at his comment. The young warrior did pretty well in the mock fight, there were just a few things he had to improve upon. “You did great, y’know. But I did notice a few things you could do better. For starters, your fighting stance has a few weak point your enemies could exploit, so make sure to guard those. Your paw swipes are fine and quick, but you could use them at more of a distance…” He continued to give tips to Havenspots about everything else in his strategy, from his pounce to his defensive attacks, as well as moves he could use in the future. “However, I wouldn’t recommend using the move I defeated you with at the end. I’m still working on it, and I hope that eventually it will be used by more PlumClan warriors, but it is still in the development stage. How about we go again?” The second round was much closer. In the chaos of the battle, Duskfeather accidentally exposed his belly at the end. If this were a real battle, he would have walked away straight to the healers den. The mock battle ultimately ended in a draw, and Duskfeather remained very impressed by the young tom’s fighting skill and adaptability. “Great work today,” he meowed to him on their way back to camp.

PHEASANTKIT [ Wonders what it's like to be a loner - Rumors ] " Now rumor has it she ain't got your love anymore. " (- Rumor Has It by Adele)
Pheasantkit yawned as she looked outside of the nursery, her eyes cloudy and gleaming. She made her way out of the nursery, stepping lightly through the snow. Her eyes turned to Cherriberry. She blinked, thinking to herself about what it's like to be a loner. Well, Cherriberry was a rogue to be exact, but it was close enough, right?
Well, she had been thinking about what it's like to be a loner, since she had once told Blazekit about it. She watched the snow lightly fall, smiling to herself. She then heard a group laughing. She whipped around, and heard Blazekit speaking to his siblings.
Pheasantkit, curious, walked over to the group. Her eyes widened when she heard the following words:
"Pheasantkit wants to be a LONER! Imagine that!"
Pheasantkit hissed loudly at the remark, interrupting the laughter. She saw half of them were rather surprised. The other half were just shocked at the young kitten's hiss being... oddly unsettling. Pheasantkit glared at Blazekit directly.
"I said that I wondered what it was like to be a loner. Not wanted!" Pheasantkit hissed. Her claws then unsheathed, just to threaten. Pheasantkit then just hissed again and walked off, and sat down on a rock, grumpily sitting there. She then realized that the group changed the subject. She looked up and watched the snow fall lightly.
That was enlightening. She held her tiny, dainty paw up and snowflakes slowly landed on the hand. She lowered her paw and stared at the snowflakes, and smiled. She then caught sight on Blizzardpaw. She then walked over to the apprentice, who seemed to have free time. Pheasantkit tapped the feline, and smiled.
"Hey Blizzardpaw!" she called up to her. "What's it like being an apprentice?"
[ OOC - I noticed that Blizzardpaw is on a patrol, so maybe have them chat with her after it? ]

Havenspots
It's snowing in the orchard. Havenspots loves it when it snows on the branches, it makes everything look like its covered in soft white fur. It, of course, does make it hard to see- as Havenspots trots behind his patrol. The tom lets his mind wander. The clan has oh so many kits nowadays, Havenspots has been watching them tumble through the snow at camp. He smiles- he's so excited to be a mentor. Passing down what Cloverfur and the rest of the clan had taught him. Out of all the kits, He thinks a little selfishly, he hopes Thornkit will be assigned his apprentice. The tom has seen the little kit around the most. He wants to prove to the clan he's a good warrior, not that he doubts himself much. The snows quite heavy, Havenspots squints at Wildclove in front of him- opening his mouth to ask him to slow down in case- He doesn't get to finish the sentence as a loud crash echoes above him startling him into looking up-. He barely sees it, a branch- he thinks numbly, crashing towards him. He cant move fast enough as it lands on him and b urns.
Wildclove
He hates snow. As Wildlcove trudges through the thick layer, squinting ahead to see, he can't help but wonder why he chose the Middle of winter- er leafbare- to join the clan. He sighs, knowing exactly why he fled his twolegs. No going back now. Besides, clan life was so much better in other ways- though he thought Fawnstar coulda held off on patrols today. He cant see his own whiskers! He huffs, speeding up. When a loud crash sounds behind him. Wildclove jumps forward- whipping around to see a branch careen down onto Havenspots. The young warrior doesn't even yell- he has no time to scramble away. It slams down on him with a sickening crunch. Not a tuft of dark red fur or white whisker can be seen of Widcloves patrol mate- The tom snaps himself out of his stupor “Shit!” He yowls “Golddusk!” Wildclove yells for help and begins to dig frantically at the ground- praying to his new found Starclan
Havenspots
At least it wasn't cold. At least it didn't hurt.
Havenspots can't see, his vision is covered in the thick snow. Sounds are muffled- but he thinks he can make out his own ragged breathing. He is not getting out of his, Havenspots can tell that immediately. The tom is devastated, what will his littermates think? His last conversation with Auburncreek echoes in his mind- what a mouse-brain he was! And Forestfreckle, he hopes this won't stop her from being the warrior he knows she can be. And his mama, he winces as best he can pinned. She’ll be so hurt- losing his father and him so close together? And Cloverfur- he has to be disappointed, his apprentice dying not protecting the clan- but from a stupid branch. “Pretty negative thoughts for a warrior huh?” Havenspots head snaps up, there in the snow is a tom-cat, a pale grey tabby with- not stars per say- but mist and clouds in his fur. He nearly blends into the white snow. “Oh” Havenspots can speak suddenly “Oh” He repeats “Sorry i had to meet you like this kiddo” He bends down, touching his nose to Havenspots “I'm Mysh” “My dad,” Havenspots says, a little numbly. Myshs eyes soften as Havenspots continues “Here to take me to Starclan?” “As far as the border, They're waiting” Havenspots gets up, shaking the ghost remains of the branch off of his fur. Mysh slides next to him, blocking the view of his frantic clan-mates “They’ll be okay” Mysh mews, and Havenspots knows he's talking about them all “They're tough” Plus, hes still here, Havenspots thinks as his starry paws bring him up. Just in a different place. He’ll still protect the clan- watch over his family and friends- Maybe even talk to Hatchhusk sometimes hes a med cat!. Yeah, Haven thinks, as he settles into his place in the night sky, welcomed by his dead clan-mates “They’ll be okay” he mews aloud. OOC: WAHHHH AHSFLFASG;HHDF;L MY BABYYY AUGH MY HEART i teared up writing this ngl With the same thought Cloverfur had before he got Haven as a apprentice about Thornkit?? my heart. And Wildclove with the outsiders pov? tho now i suppose ill have to get Wild his own proper code ps. Ill fix Havens sprite when the images stop breaking <3

Fawnstar »
The last thing Fawnstar had expected while on patrol was to run into a critically injured cat on the side of the road.
It was Fogshard who alerted the patrol, his calls desperate. Fawnstar had been in the middle of renewing the border’s scents with Duststep when the gray tom’s cries pierced the air. The leader was instantly on high alert. Fogshard was not the type to just call out for help over nothing. Whatever happened was something serious. She wondered if her Clanmate could be injured, but nothing in his voice suggested that he was in a state of pain or shock, and there was no scent of blood in the air. At least, not from where she stood.
She turned to Duststep, not wanting to waste any time. ”Come on, hurry!” Not waiting for a response, Fawnstar took off as quick as her paws would take her. Something serious had happened, she just knew it. Fogshard was not the kind of cat who would cry wolf over something little. As she neared close the scent of blood soon washed over her; it was old blood, like a wound that had already stopped dripping fresh blood, but the metallic tang still made Fawnstar’s own veins grow chilled, her pelt bristling with all the more unease. They were close to the thunderpath, she noticed. Too close for comfort. She had seen too many Clanmates, and too many outsiders, leave this life on the hard, stony path of monsters.
”Fogshard, are you-”
An unmoving patch of blue-gray tabby fur lay near the tom’s paws. Fawnstar’s breath caught in her throat. Her paws froze before she slowly eased closer. ”...Are they…?” Dead.
Fawnstar stopped once she stood beside Fogshard. The poor cat looked broken, tangled, for sure trampled under the clumsy paws of a monster. She was ready to tell her patrol to help bury this cat when she noticed a very faint rousing of the injured feline’s chest. Her ears pricked, tail lashing in surprise. Was this cat still alive? Even in this condition? She leaned down, sniffing at the blue mass of fur - still warm, still clinging to life if even just barely.
There was no time to waste. They were in the middle of leaf-bare and herbs were sparse, but they had four wonderful medicine cats back at camp. Fawnstar wasn’t going to let this cat die if she could help it.
The tortoiseshell leader turned to both Fogshard and Duststep. ”Let’s get this cat back to camp. The medicine cats will know what to do.” As careful as she could she began moving the injured cat, glancing between Fogshard and Duststep to see who would be willing to carry the outsider on their back just long enough to make it back to camp.
---
The injured tom was now under the watchful care of the medicine cats. Fawnstar had remained in the healers’ den after dismissing both Duststep and Fogshard, telling them to clean up and get something to eat, yet she stayed put, wanting to make sure the injured cat was okay. The medicine cats appeared guarded, telling her that the blue tabby’s prognosis was neutral; it was all up to StarClan on whether or not the cat would make it.
With this news in mind, Fawnstar felt heavy. Leadership was something she had dreamed of as a young warrior, her ambitions growing alongside her love for her Clan, but leading an entire Clan, being the decision maker of it all, was sometimes hard. A lot more went into being a leader than many cats realized, but there was one cat who understood the hardships more than others. There was one cat who Fawnstar trusted deeply and respected with her whole being, her whole Clan. And as she located that specific cat she dipped her head in a greeting, allowing her shoulders to sag and her haunches to fall into a slumped sitting position. ”Fogshard found that injured cat near the thunderpath. The medicine cats say it’s all up to StarClan…” Exhausted worry laced Fawnstar’s words as she spoke, blue eyes cloudy as they drifted toward the medicine cat den. Nothing happened that would give any indication of the outsider passing. All was quiet. At least for now.
She sighed, leaning ever so slightly into the form of her deputy. It had been quite some time since the two had sat down and actually talked with one another, not as leader and deputy, but as Clanmates. ”We’ve been so blessed as of late that I’ve almost forgotten what tragedy feels like.” Oh, if only she knew what was to come in the following days. If only she knew, then perhaps those words would have never fallen off her tongue and into the world.

THORNKIT [wishes she could be an apprentice already, sticks her tongue out at pumpkinkit] - - - -
It was early in the day, half the patrols still in camp, and Thornkit was already at the end of her patience for the day.
What had started as a beautiful morning was quickly dissolving around her. When Thornkit opened her eyes, just the early morning rays had been peaking into the nursery, casting gold upon the tips of her mother's fur. Still sleepy, Thornkit had curled further into the warmth that came with the puddle her siblings made in sleep, settling in to doze for a little while longer.
It hadn't lasted long once the other kits in the nursery had started to stir. A few at a time, the younger kits had started to shift in their nests. Before too long, they were climbing to the paws and moving around, making enough noise to stir Thornkit and some of her littermates from their rest. As soon as a few of them were awake, the nursery lit up the sound of them chattering back and forth to each other.
Worse than any of them seemed to be Pumpkinkit. With no regard for the others in the den who might be sleeping, she quickly amused herself by asking questions of the older cats around her.
"Why can't I go see the Plum Orchard?"
"It's out of camp, it's too far for you to go to."
Thornkit grumbled at the disruption, rolling over to push her head against one of the other cats in her nest in order to block out the noise. It didn't work. Pumpkinkit's high-pitched mew was still far more audible than Thornkit would have liked. And, to top it off, she would not stop asking why. None of the answers she got seemed to pacify her.
"Why can't I leave camp?"
"You aren't an apprentice yet, silly. You can't leave camp until you're at least an apprentice."
"Why can't I be an apprentice?"
"You have to be six moons old to be an apprentice."
"Why?"
Ugh. It was no use. With a huff that probably caught the attention of a few other kits in the nursery, Thornkit pushed herself up onto her feet. Irritation prickled at her, from the tops of her ears to the tip of her tail. She didn't even stop to stretch before she started padding over towards the entrance to the den, intent on making it out of there and to somewhere without an incessant voice that would not stop asking questions.
She wasn't lucky enough to make it out of there unscathed. As she was almost halfway out of the den, that same voice asked, "Where are you going, Thornkit?"
Thornkit looked back over her shoulder to see Pumpkinkit staring at her. She pushed down the rude response she wanted to say. "I'm going to go see who else is awake," she answered. "I don't want to be loud in here, there are other cats sleeping."
The hint in her voice was anything other than subtle, but it flew right over the other kit's head. Or maybe Pumpkinkit did get it, and just didn't think the rest of other cats in the den was worth caring about. Because, right on cue--
"Why?"
That one single word was enough to completely destroy Thornkit's train of thought. For a few moments, she could do nothing but stare back at Pumpkinkit, who wore a look of genuine sincerity. Those seconds passed in long, slow silence.
With no idea of anything else worth saying, Thornkit settled for something an older cat might considered juvenile, but something that seemed reasonable to her-- she stuck her tongue out at the younger kit, almost scowling, before strutting out of the nursery completely.
"I was never like that," she muttered to herself, settling down on a patch of mossy ground outside the nursery. She wished they would just make her an apprentice already-- there were way too many kits in the nursery these days, and they were so annoying. It was silly that she had to be a full six moons old to finally be an apprentice. Maybe it took some cats that long, but not Thornkit. She was ready now. If only they would let her...
