(hey guys, I’m back 😁)
Hazelpaw unsteadily trotted out of the medicine den, shaking his head as he looked around for Wiltingpaw.
HIII!! OMG!))
~Wiltingpaw~
The cat was licking his younger siblings fur, removing twigs from it.
Hazelpaw smiled widely and approached Wiltingpaw, but stopped halfway there, unsure on how to get his attention.
~Blankkit~
Ze wiggled from zers brothers grip, bouncing over to Hazelpaw.
“Hazie!!”
~Wiltingpaw~
The cat looked up and waved a happy hello to Hazelpaw with their tail, rushing to greet him
“You’re not sick anymore! I caught you some prey if you’re hungry!”
Hazelpaw laughed and grinned at Blankkit. “Hey, Blanks!” He nodded to Wiltingpaw. “I’m starved! Plus, insanely bored. Wanna play a game, Blanks?”
~Blankkit~
“yes!! What game?”
Ze bounced around Hazelpaw
~Wiltingpaw~
They padded off to retrieve the prey they had caught earlier
Hazelpaw watched Wiltingpaw for a second, then turned to Blankkit. “Hmm,” he glanced around. “Oh! I have an idea!” He dashed off to the medicine den, looking for his mentor. “Featherfall, do you have any flowers around? I wanna teach Blankkit that game you showed me!” He grinned.
(Ohmigosh I just realized Blankkit sounds like blanket 😂)
~FeatherfalL~
“I do!”
He nudged a flower towards Hazelpaw, happy he was interacting with other cats.
“Thanks!” He called as he ran out the den, back toward Blankkit. “Ok, this is a game Featherfall taught me when I was a kit.” He said to Blankkit. “You see this flower?” He nodded it in front of him. “You have to keep me from getting it, no matter what. You can hide it, you can run around, whatever it takes to keep it from me.”
(it’s been almost a year irl since we were rping and Featherfall introduced the game to Hazelpaw. I still remember it so well 😭)
~Blankkit~
“Okay!”
Ze bounced over the flower, grabbing it by the stem and dragging it away.. Anything..
“WILTS!”
Ze half-ran, half-stumbled after zers older brother.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Yes?”
~Blankkit~
“Sit on this!”
Ze nudged the flower to Wiltingpaw, who obviously confused, sat on it.
(FUNNY THING IS I CAME UP WITH THAT ON THE SPOT)
Hazelpaw turned away for a second, giving Blankkit time to hide it, then spun and bounded toward him. “Ready Blanks?” He asked, glancing at Wiltingpaw.
(Wow I would’ve never guessed 😅 /g)
~Wiltingpaw~
They had shifted their position so now they completely laid on it, a lazy expression.
(we ran out of space to reply lol)
Hazelpaw slyly glanced at Blankkit, then made his way over to Wiltingpaw. “Hey, Wilts,” he purred. “Did you happen to see Blankkit with a flower?” He figured he was allowed to ask for hints, after all, the flower could be hidden anywhere.
(Hazelpaw has no clue Wiltingpaw is on the flower, btw. He’s just trying to get a general idea of where Blankkit hid it)
~Wiltingpaw~
“A flower? No, I don’t! Why? Did ze steal it from you?”
They let out a purr themselves, curling their tail around their body.
( just realized I put my email in my user)
Hazelpaw hummed and looked around before leaning next to Wiltingpaw. “You sure you didn’t see him?” He whispered in their ear. “You promise?”
(Oh no! You can probably ask a mod to take it out, just because of internet safety)
~Wiltingpaw~
With a small mischievous grin, he flicked their tail down towards their body, trying to give the subtle hint they were laying on it.
(I’ll luckily be okay, seeing as it’s my secondary one! if it was my main, I would! thank you for telling me though!)
Hazelpaw smiled and nudged Wiltingpaw a couple times, trying to get him to move over. When that didn’t work, he switched to a different tactic. “Hey, Wilts, you wanna get something to eat? I’m sure you must be starving.” He quickly glanced around, looking for Blankkit.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Sure! I am starvingggg”
He drew out his words, standing up and kicking the flower gently behind him, Blankkit was nowhere to be seen, yet.
Marshpaw carefully creeped through the bushes. She wasn’t technically supposed to be hunting, but she was bored and had nothing better to do.
Blackpaw, who was training with Seapaw and Mintpaw, ears perked.
“Marshpaw! You’re not sick anymore!” He exclaimed, “Can you believe our warrior assesment is coming soon?!”
Marshpaw grinned and bounced over to him. “Yeah, it’s crazy,” she said quietly. She was nervous about not passing due to the time she was sick.
Mintpaw purred. “Hi, Marshpaw! Great to see you again!”
“You’ll be fine!” He purred, “You’re the BEST hunter I’ve ever seen!”
(soooo happy to have marshpaw back and u ofc rustflame!!!!! i love marshpaw and blackpaw’s relationship)
Marshpaw smiled at Mintpaw. She shook her head at Blackpaw’s comment. “Nuh-uh,” she contradicted. “You’re way better, plus, I’m sure Mintpaw’s just as good.” She felt glad to fall into the familiar pattern of talking with Blackpaw. She had missed him.
(Same!! I’ve been anxiously waiting to get back onto the blog bc of this rp ((plus all the friends I’ve made, y’all are amazing 🤩)) )
Mintpaw smiled at her friend’s kind comment. “Thanks. But you’re great!”
“How about we all hunt together?” Blackpaw said, “To prepare for our assessments.”
“Okay,” Seapaw said, “Fine by me!”
“By me too!” Mintpaw purred. “What about you, Marshpaw?”
“Let’s do it!” Marshpaw grinned.
Leafpaw looked around for Blackstorm, hoping to get some training in.
~Blackstorm~
“Come on, Leafpaw. Your training is long overdue.”
He began to walk to the sandy hollow.
Leafpaw nodded and followed his mentor.
Blackpaw’’s eyes were wide in excitement for his best friend being back.
“Come on!” He squealed, trotting off happily
Marshpaw happily followed, quieting down after a second. She froze and crouched lower. “Mouse.” She hissed to Blackpaw.
Mintpaw followed them, growing silent to listen for possible prey. She nodded to Marshpaw and dropped into a pre-hunter crouch, in case the mouse ran away.
Marshpaw watched for a moment more, then pounced, sinking her claws into the prey. A second mouse, unknown to her, scurried away from her. “Get it, Mintpaw!” She called.
Mintpaw raised her back legs high, then leaped into a tree and from the tree into the mouse. Her claws slipped and she pulled her teeth as a last resource. Finally, she managed to catch it. “Arf”, she gasped, raising the mouse on her chins. “I better learn how to not try to show off.” If she had just jumped normally, owuld she have gotten the mouse faster?
“Woah!” Marshpaw stared in awe. “How did you do that? That was awesome! Blackpaw, did you see what she did?!” She eagerly dashed over to him, then back to Mintpaw, tail waving excitedly, completely forgetting her catch
“Ehr…Your mouse”, Mintpaw said awkwardly. “And thanks. You are an amazing hunter, though”, she added, then padded forward to camp. “I think we caught enough. Come on, guys!”
Marshpaw went to grab her catch before running back to Mintpaw. “Do you think you could teach me how to do that?” She asked, a bit calmer.
“I think”, Mintpaw said. “The thing is, I never really know what I’m doing. It was a last-minute effort. It must’ve looked like I was making a performance and showing up, but I actually slipped and almost didn’t get the mouse.” She smiled, feeling suddenly shy. “Yeah…But it’s all about planning, mapping your way. Where would the mosue go if her heard you? What would the mouse do?” She tried to explain. “You know what? I hope Hollystar never gets me an apprentice…I”m feeling pretty bad at teaching right now.”
“Huh,” Marshpaw studied her. “You know, that actually makes sense.” She meowed thoughtfully. “And you seem to really know what you’re talking about. I’m sure you’ll be a great mentor!” She glanced at Blackpaw.
(by the way I started a new thread down there!)
AAAAAA I’m nervous for the war- i might not try to start anything- but ill respond if mentioned!)
Coldpaw’s paws brushed quietly against the leaves. ‘This is it’, she thought. ‘I’m finally going to achieve my dream.’ When she looked at the HollyClan camp, all the worry and guilt ahd vanished. This was what she had always wanted! What could ever go wrong?
“Let’s go!” She whispered to Sparkshadow. “Do we have a strategy?”
“Kill as many as you can, but otherwise not really,” she responded briskly.
Coldpaw nodded.
~Hollowpaw~
He sat beside his sibling, his tail twitching as he listened to the conversation. Mumbling something to his sibling quietly.
Hailstone walked back and forth and stopped next to Sparkshadow.
“Do you know when we’ll fight? I’m growing impatient.” He asked the impatience heard in his voice.
~Hollowpaw~
“That is your issue, you’re so impatient. You strike to early, and you fail.”
Coldpaw’s ear twitched slightly in amusement, despite the situation. Then excitment tingled in her belly, though she tried to hide it. Her first battle as a MothClan cat! YAY!
~Silentpaw~
“Why so excited?”
Their attention turned to the new member of Mothclan.
“My first battle as a MothClan cat”, she shrugged. “Can’t help it. And first chance to prove my loyalty”, she looked at them in their eyes. But she didn’t hold her gaze on them long, bringing it back to Sparkshadow.
~Hollowpaw~
“First battle? It may be your last. You do not look older than 6 months, you would die.:”
~Silentpaw~
The they-cat, and their brother, sat by either side of Coldpaw.
“Death is not a friendly foe.”
Coldpaw held herself from rolling her eyes. “Alright. Also, I’m NOT six moons old, thank you very much.” But she shrugged again. “Oh, well. We’ll see how it goes, I guess.”
(Lol this is getting interesting…)
~Hollowpaw~
“Death and war are not games, Coldpaw.”
~Silentpaw~
“You are not much younger than us, and we are young.”
The siblings gazes on Coldpaw were heavy.
Coldpaw shrugged. “Don’t you guys ever get tired of questioning me?” She asked. “You know what? I’ll just pretend you two aren’t glaring at me.” She padded over to Sparkshadow. “So. When do we attack?”
(SORRy IVE BEEN INATIVE!!!)
“Now!” she hissed, jumping into the camp.
“hello umm I used to be a rouge kit but my mom left me, ssso can I join you guyes clan”.
Breeze
Cinderflower woke up with the rogue scent. “Oh. Hello, uh…What’s your name?” She asked kindly. “Maybe you should talk to Hollystar or Willowstrike about that”, she added. “Willowstrike! Hollystar! There’s a cat here who wants to join us!” She shouted. “Hello. I’m Cinderflower.”
“thank you, I been lost in a scary forest for a while” breeze said.
Breeze looked up at Cinderflowers kind gaze, and felt like she could trust this cat.
Cinderflower smiled. “Come on here. We can make a nest for you”, she said.
Butterflywing padded out of the warrior den. She looked around to see if anyone wanted to go hunting with her.
(does anyone want to go hunting with her?)
Thank you, can you be my mentor she asks
“Well, I’m a queen”, Cinderflower said quietly. “I can’t mentor anybody, sorry.” Then she signaled to the nursery with her tail. “That gray tom-kit over there, that’s Starlingkit, my son. And my daughter Dawnkit by his side.” She smiled. “Then there’s Blankkit, Wiltingpaw’s – you’ll meet them soon – sibling. Then there’s Onyxkit and his foster sister Flowerkit, they’re the kits of Wavepool, the queen over there”, she said. “The silver one is Silentkit, and there are many others, the nursery is crowded”, she laughed good-humoredly. “Welcome in, we’ll introduce you to the others. What’s your name?”
(I’m back!!! yay!!)
-Shinepaw-
he set the mouse in the prey-pile then trotted to his fav spot by the warrior den. (what a great hunt today. he thought) he started to clean himself. (Ill have to take my warrior assessment soon. I hope ill be able to pass it. he thinks.)
“uhhhh, breeze.” She responds
“My moom abandoned me” I say.
“So I think you’d be Breezekit, that is, if you didn’t want to keep your name”, Cinderflower mewed, beckoning Breeze with her tail. “What a mouse-brained thing for your mother to do. I’ll take her place if you’d allow me too.” Yes, she was offering to adopt an unknown rogue kit. Who cares? She felt like she could trust her.
Wavepool waved her tail in a friendly gester.
Hollystar padded over.
“Who’s this little one?” she asked with a purr, and then she heard a cry from a cat above.
“MothClan.” she hissed.
~Featherfall~
The medicine cat padded from his den, they were high on herbs, perhaps a bit too high.
“Hazelpaw!”
He wanted to check on his apprentice , as he had just recovered from a sickness.
Yellowstar grinned, before pouncing over the leap canopy and into MothClan.
Sparkshadow tumbled onto Wavepool, and behind her Flowerkit squealed in terror.
“Flowerkit, Onyxkit, get the kits into the nursery!” she hissed.
With a cry of terror, she nodded, and rounded the kits into the nursery.
“Flowerkit?” Starlingkit asked, “What’s happening? Is everything okay?”
She pulled him closer, and nodded. “It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Seapaw hissed in surpirse, scaring away the prey.
“Seapaw? What’s wrong?” Blackpaw asked
~Silentpaw~
The mothclan they-cat sat by the edge of the border, watching Yellowlake, or rather Yellowstar with precise eye movement.
~Onyxkit~
He darted towards Blankkit, grabbing xe by their scruff and running into the nursery, dropping them.
“Stay here! Who else do we need to get?”
~Wiltingpaw~
They shifted suddenly, their ears pricked as they looked around, the apprentice’s muscles tensing at the sudden cry, swinging themselves around they looked for the source, a feeling of knowing already hitting them.
“Come on!” Sparkshadow said in a delightful tone to Silentpaw before following Yellowlake over the canopy.
Starlingkit shivered.
“Wait.. where’s my sister?” he said, frightened, “Where’s Dawnkit?”
Flowerkit’s eyes widened, “And where’s Lilackit?!”
Tigerpaw walked up to Wiltingpaw.
“MothClan.” she hissed, but changed her tone. “Come on, we fight best as a team.”
She smiled at him.
Mintpaw smiled at Tigerpaw’s attitude. “Seapaw?” She called. “Are you okay?”
“DAWNKIT! LILACKIT!” Cinderflower called desperately. “Breeze! Behind me!” She added to the loner/rogue cat, curling her tail around her. “Wavepool. Please keep her with the other kits”, she whispered to the fellow queen, shoving Breeze along with the other kits. Then she unsheathed her claws and dove into Sparkshadow.
Coldpaw watched from the shadows. She was petrified. This is what I want. This is what I’ve wanted my entire life. Yet those were the cats she knew, those were the cats she had grown up with. Where was her loyalty? My loyalty is to MothClan! She told herself fiercely. Come on, Coldpaw…You know what to do… She grinned. Time to attack.
Coldpaw launched herself at the gathered apprentices, aiming for Tigerpaw’s throat first.
“Tigerpaw!” Mintpaw wasn’t even sure if her scream was understandable, but she was too scared to focus on that. “Coldpaw? What are you doing here?” She asked, foreboarding burning in her belly.
Coldpaw knew facing her former Clanmates would be hard…But she’d never liked that she-cat anyway. Too petty, she’d often thought. Focuses too much on friendships and too little on goals. WIth that in mind, she allowed herself a smile. “Doing what I was born to do”, she smirked. “Now get out of my way. Your turn will come soon enough.”
Shock flooded over Mitnpaw and she launched herself on the tabby as an explosion of anger. Yet anger blinded cats…She could easily be defeated.
~Silentpaw~
Their gaze followed Sparkshadow, before they and their brother hopped over, simply following the older cat rather than fighting.
~Onyxkit~
“Starclan!”
He darted out without a second in mind, looking for the missing kits.
~Wiltingpaw~
They nodded to her, giving a smile back before darting off, hoping she’d be at their side.
Sparkshadow rolled over, claws unsheathed, and extended her paw towards Mintpaw.
Flowerkit ran out, shivering, scared, and tried to find the missing kits.
Tigerpaw was right besides Wiltingpaw.
“By the way,” she said, “I’m sorry I… lashed out…”
~Onyxkit~
The kit spun around, seeing Flowerkit dart from the nursery they ran into it.
“Are you two okay?!”
~Silentpaw~
The they-cat observed Sparkshadow, not raising a claw.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Its fine its fine. Apologies should be saved for when we’re not risking our life!”
Hiiii c–can I be a member of you-r claaan breeze said
“Cinderflower where are you going, don’t leave me” breeze yowls.
Breeze runs out of the nursery, before wave pool could catch her, and tries to find Cinderflower, but ends up watching Coldpaw in terrior. I might be next she thought!
“Breeze! Go back!” Cinderflower yowled, panic flooding over her. “I can fight Sparkshadow; you can’t!“
“Cinderflower noooo don’t fight her you’ll get hurt!!!!” Breeze says her tiny paws swaying.”Don’t hurt Cinderflower Lightspark” Breeze hisses. “What has she done to you”
Flowerkit then ran over.
“Breeze, please, come to the nursery! It’s for your safety! And Sparkshadow is fighting Mintpaw right now, Cinderflower will be fine!” Flowerkit pleaded.
Her eyes shone with fear. She knew Cinderflower would probably go help Mintpaw anyway.
Flowerkit was now shaking from her anxiety of anyone getting hurt.
