Okay, so this post is a little later than what I would’ve wanted, but I’ve had a busy week 😛 I’m also a little tired, so, only one cat pic this time 😛 You’re getting plenty from Cadvent, anyway...
The seventh edition of the Blog Monthly is here – written by Lil, fresh off the printing press Hello, everyone!! The Blog Monthly is back and better than ever! I hope you all love this edition, in my opinion it is one...
Sliverthorn argues why Ashfur would’ve been better for Squirrelflight than Brambleclaw.
Hailstone grinned and leaped into the battle after Sparkshadow. “Finally!” He yowled with glee as he ran into the mass of battling cats. (Feel free to interact!)(edit: new page lol)
Darkshadow joined and sees Breeze, and jumps for her.
“Help me” Breeze yowls helplessly.
Darkshadow Pulls the kit up by the scruff
, And disappears “that lot may be a scrap but she can fight, and will be great for mothclan.” She thought.
“LET HER GO!” Cinderflower snarled, forgetting Sparkshadow and leaping after Breeze. “Let her go“, she hissed to Darkshadow, tensing her muscles.
~Blackstorm~
The tom slowly approached Darkshadow from behind, his sister
appearing in front of her.
~Redstorm~
“Set the kit down, Mothclan cat.”
She kept a steady tone
Cinderflower sprung forward, aiming for Darkshadow.
Coldpaw sliced Mintpaw’s cheek and bounded away, her tail swirling gracefully behind her. I’ve become a MothClan cat, she thought grimly.
“Mouse-heart!” Mintpaw hissed, shaking her head and leaping again.
Coldpaw crouched and let the silver tabby fall on the ground. “Nice aim”, she whispered under her breath.
Mintpaw scrambled to her paws again and sat down, licking a paw calmly.
Coldpaw glared at her. “Can’t you fight?”
“Of course I can!” She smiled at her sweetly, her eyes gleaming with mockery.
Coldpaw’s patience had dried, but this cat obviously had some strategy. If she could figure out what it was…
Mintpaw’s tail waved, trying to call the other apprentices attention. Then she looked back at the brown and gray she-cat. “Good luck”, she purred, awaiting anxiously to rip this cat’s pelt off.
Coldpaw narrowed her eyes. She dove into Mintpaw, a plan forming in her mind.
Mintpaw dodged and ran over to the other apprentices, but when she looked again…Coldpaw had disappeared.
Coldpaw watched from above a tree, soundless and threatening, for her next step. If the other MothClan cats were here, they’d be a great help. I mean, look at how many apprentices there are! But her Clanmates probably wouldn’t come, so her plan should be enough.
~Silentpaw~
The they-cat jumped up onto the tree, right behind Coldpaw.
“Hello.”
“Shhh”, Coldpaw hissed. “Hello to you too. Can you help out? HollyClan annoyingly has too many apprentices.” She glared at the HollyClan cats down the tree.
Silkpaw and Sagepaw were right beside Mintpaw, growling.
“How dare she?” Silkpaw hissed.
Blackpaw and Seapaw nervously walked up to the other apprentices, ready to fight by there side.
Darkshadow puts her paw on top of breeze thrating to break her neck, and sneers “you can let me go, or she dies.”
Cinderflower froze. What would the others do?
(i forgot her name so it’s Rosefrost now)
-Rosefrost-
she sprung over to her clanmate and snatched the kit from her grasp. “You fight, ill take the kit back!” she yelled.
Hailstone looked back and forth searching for someone to fight and saw Coldpaw in the tree looking at the Hollyclan apprentices as if planning and then Silentpaw jumped up as well he padded over in the shadows and leaped up unseen.
“Planning something? You’ll need a strong warrior as some help with that many apprentices. I’m in.” Hailstone gave a mischievous grin and sat.
“Thank you, Hailstone”, Coldpaw said calmly.
Breeze sees darkshadow look away for a second, and wiggles out of her grip and leaps into Cinderflowers soft fur.
“Run Cinderflower” she says in her ear.
“No. You run”, Cinderflower said. “Wavepool is waiting in the nursery and she’ll protect you. Rosefrost will help me, don’t worry. I can fight.” She licked Breeze’s forehead affectionately. “Go on.”
But-t you’ll get hurt Cinderflower” breeze says dogeing her licks
“If I get hurt, it’ll be some scratches, and not nearly as much as Darkshadow”, she looked threateningly at the MothClan cat. “But if you get hurt, we wouldn’t know what to do. WAVEPOOL! GET THIS KIT TO THE NURSERY!” She called to the fellow queen. “Good luck, Breeze”, she added quietly.
Darkshadow whips around and swipes Cinderflower in the nose, “give me my kit back!” She says growling.
(Can darkshadow pin Cinderflower down?)
(Yes, sure!)
“Try me”, Cinderflower chuckled. She dodged the warrior, crouching, and then dove into her. WAVEPOOL! She thought desperately.
Darkshadow pins her down and pulls her claws out and moves her paw over her eye.
“Leave or your pretty little eye gets clawed out” She says, smirking.
Breeze tries to claw darkshadow but she knocks her back.
“Help somebody, help!!!!” Breeze yowls.
Cinderflower widened her eyes in ‘fear’. Then she whimpered: “Oh, don’t hurt me…You won’t get the chance.” With all her strenght, she rolled against the MothClan cat’s body, leaping before they both reached the ground and landing a safe distance away from Darkshadow. “You have your claws, but seemingly your Clan doesn’t grow wings”, Cinderflower grinned. “Despite its name.”
“Very well then, I’ll go” Darkshadow sneered. She jumps through the battle and waits for a second, and then grabs breeze by the scruff and runs.
Wavepool nodded, and picked the kit up and brought it to the nursery.
“Flowerkit, watch Breeze,” she said.
(sorry I’ve been inactive)
“Come on!” Tigerpaw growled, almost in excitement, towards Wiltingpaw. “Let’s save our clan!”
Tigerpaw saw an fluffy, golden tom pounce on Sorrelfur, and she hurled herself at he tabby warrior, pulling him off Sorrelfur, and slashed her paw across his face.
Sparkshadow shouted into the camp clearing, “I will be leader!”
Yellowlake, distracted, went to go ask her about that outside of the camp, and Sparkshadow was ready, and she slashed her throat, taking away her life.
Sparkshadow saw a HollyClan warrior in the trees, Splashpool in the tree, and her eyes brightened.
She dragged Yellowlake into the Hollyclan camp and shouted, “HollyClan, one of your warriors have killed our leader! MothClan, fight and take no mercy, they killed Yellowlake!”
Sagepaw looked up with surprise, “What? No HollyClan warrior would do that! You did that!” but her meow was drowned out by the screeches of fighting cats.
WHAT?!Coldpaw thought. She’d watched the scene. She didn’t want to seem disloyal, but that was a lie! She looked at Silentpaw in desperation. Had she seem it?
Mintpaw nodded, leaping at the warriors.
“We have to do something! Let’s help our Clan!” Coldpaw said. “The fighting has grown heated!”
Sparkshadow gave Coldpaw a warning glance, knowing that she saw what she did, and flexed her long, bloodstained claws in a way of saying, I’m watching you. She then got back into the battle and pounced on Splashpool.
“This is for killing my leader!” she yowled, and slashed Splashpool’s throat.
Aggression and hate shined in her eyes.
I’m finally where I belong. Leader. she thought.
Sagepaw and Silkpaw nodded at each other, then looking at Mintpaw.
“Shall we go fight Sparkshadow?”
ARE YOU NUTS?! A part of Mintpaw wanted to shout, but she held it back. it was a battle after all.
“Yes…” She glanced at the other cats. “Seapaw, Blackpaw, Tigerpaw and Wiltingpaw: Are we all agreed?”
Coldpaw shivered. Her leader’s glare had taken her aback. Is this…Normal? If in MothClan that was normal, the alright. But…Sparkshadow had just framed an innocent cat for a murder SHE had commited. Shifting away her gaze, she looked at Silentpaw, waiting for a response.
Seapaw and Blackpaw nodded hesitantly.
Silkpaw, though, changed her mind.
“Let’s let Sparkshadow be, she’s fighting her own clan right now,” she said, “Let’s fight an easier warrior instead.”
Mintpaw let out a relieved sigh. “Okay.”
Hailstone looked over with anger and shock flashing in his eyes as he saw Yellowlakes body. He leaped back into battle at a warrior and started fightingbwith anger.
Darkshadow drops breeze in disbelief,
And runs to Lightspark “you stupid cat I will be leader!” She roars.
“I challenge you to a fight for leadership!”.
(Can you kill darkshadow in this fight???)
(op I meant sparksjadow lol)
Coldpaw gasped. Well, what’s worse, Coldpaw? She thought to herself. A deputy who murdered her leader and framed it into another cat or a cat who fights loyally to MothClan? The second one, obviously. She smiled for a moment before controlling herself.
Sparkshadow snickered.
“You can try,” she said, and pounced on his back, slashing his flank.
Darkshadow rears and slashes her cheek “You murdered my leader, and I saw you do it, everyone did, you aren’t strong, your a fool, who is reckless,and has no loyalty” she yoweled.
“You are an mouse brained fool, and the clan will die if you are leader.” She said with a moking tone.
“Mothclan forever”
“How dare you blame the death of our leader on me?” she shrieked, and pounced on her, aiming her claws towards her throat.
(She can die now if you want)
SORRY IM ACTIVE NOW!))
~Silentpaw~
The they-cat sat calmly in the midst of panic and chaos surrounding them, licking their paws and cleaning themselves. They had no taste for violence- not yet at least. They had no blood lust craving they needed to hold, their brother laid loyally beside them/
I know Sparkshadow killed Yellowlake. But I love a leader who knows when it’s there turn as leader, and that is Sparkshadow. But that doesn’t mean I can’t act shocked and believe it was hollyclan, it means more bloodshed! Hailstone thought and shot Sparkshadow a wink to tell the new leader that he knew and liked it unlike others.
Sparkshadow winked back with a wicked smile.
(thx, Idked what to do with her.)
Darkshadow felt blood all over her. As she opened her eyes, she saw nothing but madness drift over.
“Your worthless, sparkshadow, you have no honor, and no responsibility, you will lead Mothclan into a dark age, full of nothing but fury” she said.
(ur welcome <3)
Sparkshadow smiled maliciously, and yowled in victory.
"MothClan, we have a victory!" she yowled, no longer interested in the fighting, as she had accomplished what she had came here to do. "Let's go home!"
Coldpaw nodded weakly, shocked by what she had just watched.
Before she could stop herself, she approached Darkshadow and whispered in her ear: “May StarClan light your path. May you find good hunting, swift running, and shelter where you sleep.” She should do the same to Yellowlake, the cat who had made it possible for her to be where she was. The cat who had told Hollowpaw to get off her. The cat who would lead MothClan with wisdom and confidence for the rest of her moons. She approached the body and licked Yellowlake’s fur. “Sparkstar”, she called softly. “Aren’t we going to bring Yellowlake’s body to camp so we can have a proper vigil?”
Breeze stands there in horror, she can’t be dead, she can’t.
“Wake up Darkshadow wake up, come on, come on.” She said.
“There gone now you don’t have to pretend!, Wake up!!!”
Breeze stares why won’t she wake up!
Coldpaw gives Breeze a sad look as she follows her Clan. Then she disappears in the forest.
“Breeze”, Cinderflower calls softly. “She’s in StarClan now.”
“No, she’s not, mom you have to wake up.” Breeze says.
Breeze lays next to her, trying to wake her up.
Despite the situation, a purr rumbled in Cinderflower’s throat when she heard Breeze call her ‘mom’. She settled down by the she-kit’s side and licked her back, soothing her. “Breeze.” Her voice was gentle. “She isn’t breathing. You saw what happened. Sparkshadow killed her. But now she is happy. Somewhere else.” She nudged Breeze, making her look at the starry sky. “See? Somewhere in the sky, a new star has just arrived. And that new star has reunited with her friends and family and found a warm place to rest.”
“Why would sparkshadow do this, mom, why!!!”
Breeze could not tell why someone would do this, why would they .
“How old are your other kits mom, I want to change the subject” she said.
Cinderflower purred. “They’re around your age. Starlingkit and Dawnkit.”
“you should go see your kits, but I Wana stay here, cause that’s what she did when my daddy died.”
Breeze wasn’t sure what to feel, Darkshadow had left Hein the forest alone, but she was her mom, her mind seemed to twist.
Cinderflower’s mind swirled. Darkshadows your MOTHER? She almost shouted. The she-cat had literally tried to…She shook off those thoughts. “Okay, Breeze”, she said softly. “Call me if you need anything.” She walked over to the nursery, stealing one last glance at the grieving she-kit, and then entered the den. “Dawnkit? Starlingkit?”
