“o-oh uhh yes.” she realized it was the leader. she followed the leader to there den.
“So, you want to join the clan?” Hollystar said.
(whats her warrior name, Midnightface?)
+moon+
“Yes, I do!” She yelped a little. “I promise I’ll help has much as I can!” She looked out of the den and saw the clan. “I really feel like I belong here.” She slowly moved her head back to the leader.
“Alright,” she said, “Do you know how to hunt or fight?”
+moon+
“I mean I knew how to hunt… and protect myself.. I’ve never fought another cat though..” she meowed.
“Very well,” she said, “You may join the clan. I’ll have a meeting later.”
+Moon+
“Oh thank you!” She purred with delight.
{response to Drizz}
Leafpaw rolled his eyes at Blackpaw’s reaction and watched him go calmly. He glanced at Tigerpaw and, without saying a word, turned and walked away in the direction Marshpaw had ran off.
Tigerpaw snorted.
(Reply to uuuuuummmmm idk)
“S-sure,” she mewed
(Response to Leaf and Drizz)
~Onyxkit~
He felt out a triumph meow and got off her, waiting until she got up.
~Blackstorm~
“Good job you two! Now, have you ever tried team hunting?”
Flowerkit got up and yawned.
“It’s late,” Wavepool said, “Let’s get you two in your nest.”
~Onyxkit~
“But I’m not tireeddd!”
They whined at his mother, rolling around on the ground.
“Now,” Wavepool snapped.
Flowerkit nodded sleepily and padded to the den.
~Onyxkit~
He huffed and laid down on the ground, refusing to move.
“No!”
Wavepool growled in annoyance and dragged Onyxkit by his scruff to the nursery.
“Sleep, Flowerkit is sleeping fine so why can;t you?”
~Onyxkit~
“Because I’m not sleepy!! I want to run around!!”
“Now,” Wavepool growled.
Dawnpaw hesitantly peeked her head into the nursery. “Wavepool?” She called softly. “Um, uh, Emberstream was looking for you…” She drifted off when she saw Oynxkit and a small smile grew on her face. “Would you like some help?” She asked quietly.
“Sure,” she said, sighing.
Hazelpaw shook his head, glancing at Wiltingpaw, and his tail twitched in embarrassment
Hazelpaw shook his head, glancing at Wiltingpaw, before staring at his paws in embarrassment.
~Wiltingpaw~
He shook their head, also.
~Blackstorm~
“Good. You’ll be learning today. Hazelpaw, chase a mouse or vole over to WIltingpaw.”
Hazelpaw’s tail flicked nervously but he nodded and started searching for a mouse. He quickly found one and prepared to chase it to Wiltingpaw. Please don’t mess this up, he silently begged to himself. Taking a deep breath, he ran out of the bush he was hiding in and scared the mouse toward Wiltingpaw. Please. He watched anxiously, ready to run some more if needed.
~Wiltingpaw~
He crouched and snapped it up, killing it with ease.
~Blackstorm~
“Well done! Well done!”
He purred, pleased with the two.
Hazelpaw let out a joyus meow and grinned at Wiltingpaw. “That was great!” He exclaimed, eyes shining happily.
~Blackstorm~
“Continue to practice team hunting, I will be watching by the sidelines. Be sure to switch roles often.”
Hazelpaw nodded. “Ok,” he glanced at Wiltingpaw, not entirely sure what to do.
~Wiltpaw~
He took the position of chasing, waiting for a vole to come closer, then he began to chase it towards Hazelpaw
Hazelpaw tried to steady his breathing, but thoughts of Leafpaw rose in his mind and his breathing steadily became more frantic. He dived after the vole, missing by inches, and silently cursed.
Marshpaw trudged into camp, head ducked low, and quietly went to the apprentice den.
Leafpaw appeared in camp a few moments after Marshpaw and quickly trotted over to his mentor. “Can we train today?” He asked eagerly.
Blackpaw padded to Marshpaw.
“I’m sorry,” he said quietly, “I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.”
Marshpaw stared at him, eyes wide. “It-it wasn’t your fault,” she said quickly, brushing her tail on his back. “It was mine. I shouldn’t have tried to keep you away from Leafpaw. It’s your choice. And if you’d been with me when I talked to him, you could’ve…” she stopped and dropped her eyes to the ground guiltily. She sighed, “He’s different, Blackpaw. He’s changed.” She looked up at Blackpaw with scared eyes. “He-he tried to tell me you were just using me… That you’d completely ignore me once you got what you wanted.” She took a small step back and shook her head slightly. “Is he right? Are you using me?” She fearfully watched for his reaction.
Blackpaw shifted his paws and glanced at her with a hurt in his eyes.
“I would never,” he whispered, “You mean the world to me. I don’t care if you were MothClan, a fox, anything. I would always be there for you because it’s what friends are for. I would never take you for advantage.”
Tigerpaw padded up to them and smirked. She knew Leafpaw and Marshpaw being torn apart was mostly her fault.
“You guys are such mice,” she rolled her eyes and walked away.
+Shinepaw+ [waiting to be accepted. :>]
She was sleeping in then apprentice den. She then was disturbed by the others talking. She yawned and stretched.
She padded out of the den trying not to interfere with the others. She went out into the camp. “Morning tigerpaw!” She squeaked. “Good hunting today?” As she picked up a mouse, And sat down.
(you don;t have to be accepted!)
Tigerpaw rolled her eyes and ignored her.
She wanted a friend, but her ambition was much more important.
+Shine’paw+
“What’s the matter? Woke up on the wrong side of the nest?” She joked. “Aww cheer up! It’s a great day out!” She smiled.
(P.s I’m now changing shinepaw a gender to a He. Because I do to much hers)
Tigerpaw curled her lip in a snarl at her, and stalked off
(I’m so so sorry for not responding, I’ve had some mental stuff come up lately)
Marshpaw sighed when Blackpaw spoke and smiled up at him. Her eyes narrowed as Tigerpaw walked away and she hissed in annoyance. “I’m really sorry for thinking you were using me,” she whispered, staring down at her paws. “Ever since Leafpaw met Tigerpaw, he’s become so convincing… And scary,” she admitted softly. “I shouldn’t have believed him. And don’t listen to Tigerpaw. She’s just jealous because she doesn’t have anyone.” She glanced up at Blackpaw and gave his ear a small lick before looking away, slightly embarrassed.
Blackpaw ducked his head.
“I’m sorry too,” he said, “I won’t ever do something to make you think I’m using you.”
Marshpaw felt something fill her chest and smiled at Blackpaw. Her attention was drawn away for a second when she spotted Dawnpaw and laughed softly when Oynxkit pounced on Dawnpaw’s tail.
~Onyxkit~
The kit stumbled out in a haze, looking around excitedly, running around to find someone to play with
Dawnpaw smiled and herded him out of the den. “Don’t wake your sister,” she ordered quietly. She turned to Wavepool, “I’ll watch him out here. You get some rest.” She whispered.
~Onyxkit~
His eyes shimmered as he went into a crouch, pouncing on Dawnpaw’s tail and batting it
“I’ve got your tail!”
Dawnpaw grinned and turned to face him, sweeping her tail in front of him teasingly. “Bet you can’t catch it again,” he taunted playfully.
~Onyxkit~
He crouched down and watched her tail.. Suddenly going to pounce, only to faceplant into the dirt
Dawnpaw quickly nudged him to his feet, slightly worried. “That was a good pounce!” He’s praised. “Why don’t you try catching that leaf?” She gestured to a leaf fluttering in the breeze a bit above his head.
~Onyxkit~
Without a moment of hesitation he began to try and catch the leaf, batting at it and trying to pin it down.
After Flowerkit’s nap, she snuck up behind Onyxkit and pounced on him.
~Onyxkit~
He let out a yelp of surprise and fell down
“Hey!”
Dawnpaw watched him, smiling. “Try using your back legs more,” she suggested. “It’ll help you get more bounce.”
~Onyxkit~
“Dawnpaw help! Flowerkit wont get off me!!”
Flowerkit squealed happily.
Dawnpaw laughed and nudged Flowerkit. “Why don’t you put that energy into catching the leaf over there?” She suggested, pointing to the leaf Oynxkit had been trying to get. “If both of you work together, you should be able to grab it.”
Flowerkit’s flank rose up and down, and her feet twitched.
~Wiltingpaw~
“That’s alright, you want to try again?”
A bit disappointed, but he tried to keep Hazelpaw from feeling bad
+Shinepaw+
He watched the grumpy cat tiger’paw walk away, then turned and went over to the kits den. “Hey kits!” He smiled. “Look what I have.” He moved his paw from his back to his front and showed a very blue and shiny rock. “Ta da!” He smiled.
Hazelpaw saw a flash of disappointment in Wiltingpaw’s eyes and instantly felt a pang of guilt. “Yeah, sure!” He said, hoping to make up for the lost prey. Determination made him more confident and he smiled at Wiltingpaw. “If it’s ok, if like to try to catch it,” he meowed softly. “Unless you want to, of course.” He quickly added.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Alright”
He nodded and it walked to the bush.. soon a mouse came into view and he chased it towards Hazelpaw again
Hazelpaw breathed deeply and forced everything to disappear until he was focused solely on the mouse. Smiling to himself, he swiftly emerged from the bushes and killed quickly killed it. Eyes bright with excitement, he tackled Wiltingpaw. “I did it!” He cried happily.
~Wiltingpaw~
He broke into laughter as it got knocked down, flicking his tail to tap Hazelpaw’s nose
“Great job!”
(Oh noo, what if this becomes forbidden loveeee? /j /j)
Hazelpaw grinned and got off Wiltingpaw. “Sorry… Got a bit overexcited, I guess.” He apologized nervously.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Its alright,should we bring the prey back to camp now?”
+Shinepaw+
Shinepaw set the rock down and let the kits play with the cool rock. He walked away and went to the fresh kill-pile. But then bumped into one of his den mates.
Marshpaw smiled at him. “Hey Shinepaw!” She greeted happily.
+shinepaw+
“Oh! Hey marshpaw!” He smiled back. “How was your training been?” He asked.
Hazelpaw sighed. “Yeah… I guess we should.” He said sadly. He didn’t want to go back to camp, especially not back to Leafpaw. And a small part of him wanted to keep talking with Wiltingpaw. He sighed and went to pick up the mouse, eyes now dull with sadness.
~Wiltingpaw~
He took notice and paused for a minute, suddenly flicking his tail against Hazelpaw’s nose
“Come catch me if you can!”
Hazelpaw smiled a little and bounded after him, relaxing as the wind pushed against his fur.
~Onyxkit~
He leaped up and crouched down
“Come on Flowerkit! We have to get our prey!”
“Okay!” Flowerkit squealed and leaped off Onyxkit, pouncing on the leaf.
“Hah!” She yowled, “I got it!!!!”
“Great job Flowerkit!” Dawnpaw praised, glancing at Oynxkit to make sure he was okay.
Flowerkit yowled, “Yeah! I got it! I showed the leaf!”
Then she dashed off, pouncing on her mother’s tail.
~Wiltingpaw~
He ran past Hazelpaw, having spun around while he was turned around
“Come on slow-poke!”
Hazelpaw laughed and ran quicker, pushing himself to go fastehe was ahead of Wiltingpaw. He suddenly skidded to a halt when red fur came into view and found himself face to face with a fox. Dropping the prey, he scurried back in panic. The fox snarled and lashed at Hazelpaw. Acting on instinct, he took a sloppy swipe at the creature. “Wiltingpaw!” He called desperately as the fox lunged at him, clamping down on his leg.
(Now it be drama time 😅😆)
Blackpaw heard the cry of Marshpaw’s littermate.
Hazelpaw! He thought.
He ran where he heard the yowl, and saw a big, red fox.
“Hazelpaw!” He shrieked.
He distracted the fox for a moment, and in that time he leaped from a tree onto the fox’s back.
Blackpaw clawed at the back of the fox, and then leaped off.
He joined Hazelpaw, swiping at it’s muzzle.
~Wiltingpaw~
He swung around and ran at the fox, nipping its leg and doing its best to scratch it before retreating.
“We need to get away from camp, NOW!”
He crawled away from the fox, dragging his injured leg with hisses of pain. He stared down at the wound, knowing he needed to do something, but not sure what. It was like a vacant memory just out of reach as black swam in his vision. He watched the fox tried to attack the three cats and snapped out of trance when he heard Wiltingpaw. He stood and joined in the fight, fighting against the heavyness that pulled at him to stop and just sleep.
Blackpaw swiped the fox’s muzzle, and the fox realized it was outnumbered and stomped off.
“What were you thinking,” he snapped at Wiltingpaw. “Hazelpaw is a medicine cat who doesn’t know how to fight. He could have been killed!”
~Wiltingpaw~
“Don’t you snap at me!”
His fur spiked up
“It was his mentors idea for me to take him out with me! Besides, NOBODY scented that fox!”
He let Hazelpaw lean against him
“Help me get him to camp, or don’t, I quite honestly don’t care.”
Hazelpaw instantly sprung to Wiltingpaw’s defense, all tiredness forgotten. “It wasn’t his fault! Blackstorm sent us hunting. We were just heading back to camp. And Wiltingpaw can’t even control where a fox is. It’s not like he made the fox appear and attack.” He snapped, keeping his injured leg off the ground. “Let’s get back to camp.” He narrowed his eyes at Blackpaw, as if daring him to argue.
~Wiltingpaw~
He nodded and let Hazelpaw lean on it, helping him back towards camp
“You can’t hunt!” he growled, “Or are you planning to be a warrior now?”
“Just because I’m a medicine cat doesn’t mean I shouldn’t know how to hunt.” He hissed, flattening his ears against his head. He turned away, not wanting to argue, and let Wiltingpaw lead him to camp. His tail drooped and he leaned on Wiltingpaw, breathing heavily.
Foxflame who was hunting heard screeches, is MothClan Attacking? No it doesn’t sound like anyone from MothClan…. With some hesitation she dashed towards it. Only to see that a large Fox and sme Apprentices was the scorce of the noise. Quickly she jumped on the Foxes back, digging her claws into its flesh.
(OMG MINNOWPAW, I LOVE MIRACULOUS TOO! Who’s your favorite ship? Mine’s a tie between Juleka X Rose and Marc X Nathaniel)
(Probably Adrinnet and Luchloe)
(reply to Sheaheart)
Marshpaw grinned. “it’s been pretty good, how about yours?” She asked.
+Shinepaw+
“That’s good to hear.” He smiled. “Mine been great too! I’ve just learned how to jump over someone and claw there back!” He said excited.
“Oh, that’s really cool!” Marshpaw exclaimed, glancing around. “hey, have you seen Blackpaw? I don’t know where he went.”
+Shinepaw+
“no i haven’t” he shook his head.
~Wiltingpaw~
He helped Hazelpaw back to camp
“Featherfall!”
~Featherfall~
The tom looked at the two, dropping the herbs was carrying, and rushed over to them
“What happened?! Hazelpaw!”
He didn’t wait for an answer, he ran back to get the herbs needed while Wiltingpaw helped Hazelpaw lay down
Hazelpaw slid onto the moss bed, wincing. “Sorry about Blackpaw,” he apologized quietly, staring at his paws. “It wasn’t your fault that fox turned up.”
~Wiltingpaw~
“Somecat probably put dun in his prey this morning”
He laid down next to Hazelpaw, examining the wound
“Do you want me to help clean your wound, or do you have it?”
~Blankkit~
The kit stumbled out of the nursery and began to bound towards Wiltingpaw, not yet seeing Hazelpaw
(Happy early birthday Flame!)
Hazelpaw glanced at the wound and sighed, resting his head on his paws. “I’ve got it covered, I think.” He meowed, half smiling at Wiltingpaw. He shifted to clean the wound, grimacing. “Stupid fox.” He muttered. He froze when he heard Blankkit and turned to look at the kit. “Hello,” he greeted kindly, eyes softening.
(Thanks!)
~Wiltingpaw~
“Hey there, Blanks.”
He leaned down and licked the top of the kits head, getting a happy mew in return.
~Blankkit~
“Hi!! Who are you? Are you Wilts friend?? What happened?”
Voi lowered themselves so that vi was matching his brothers laying position
Hazelpaw smiled warmly at voi. “I just tripped and ran into a tree.” He lied, not wanting to scare Blankkit. “My name is Hazelpaw.” He glanced at Wiltingpaw, not sure how to answer the kit’s other question.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Yes, Hazelpaw is my friend” He gently flicked their tail against Blankkit’s nose
~Blankkit~
“Woahh! Can I be your friend then?? I wanna be just like Wilts!! Hes super cool!”
Voi paid no mind to their brother, who was licking his chest in embarrassment
(These three are so cute! ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAYYY!! You’re getting old mwahahhaha >:))
Hazelpaw laughed softly. “Of course you can be my friend. And you’re right, Wilts is super cool.” He flashed a grin at Wiltingpaw when he said the nickname.
~Wiltingpaw~
“Hey! Fine then, Hazie.”
~Blankkit~
“Hazie!! Hi Haie!! You must be cool if you’re friends with Wilts!”
Hazelpaw chuckled. “I don’t know about that… I can’t even defend myself against a f-” he froze when he realized his slipup and quickly tried to cover it, “A-a fern.” He frantically glanced at Wiltingpaw, scared he might’ve scared Blankkit.
Blackpaw twitched his tail in annoyance and stomped off to the apprentice’s den.
He rested his nose on his paws, a frown spreading across his forehead.
Marshpaw tentivly crept into the den, laying down next to Blackpaw. “What’s wrong?” She asked softly, watching him worriedly.
“Wiltingpaw,” he spat, “He almost killed Hazelpaw. He took him out hunting, when Hazelpaw doesn’t know how to hunt or fight. He’s a medicine cat!”
Marshpaw tensed and sat up. “Wiltingpaw attacked Hazelpaw?!” She asked, panic in her eyes. “Is he ok? Why did Wiltingpaw hurt him?” She stood and started to walk to the medicine den.
“No,” Blackpaw said, “A fox attacked them..”
Marshpaw sighed softly, but was still tense as she sat down next to Blackpaw. “If I had to guess, Hazelpaw probably asked to go hunting.” She said quietly, not meeting Blackpaw’s eyes.
“Yeah, but Wiltingpaw isn’t a warrior yet, it’s not to safe alone out there.”
+Shinepaw+
“I’ll see you around marshpaw” he dipped his head hood bye and walked off.
Marshpaw nodded in agreement, but stayed silent. “I’d better go make sure Hazelpaw’s okay.” She whispered, knowing to give Blackpaw some space.
Blackpaw flicted his tail in a goodbye, and layed down in his nest
(i spelled like 40000 words wrong there)
~Blankkit~
“A fern?! Which fern was it?! I’ll scratch it up real good!”
He jumped and swung vois head around
~Wiltingpaw~
He gently flicked his tail
“Calm down now, Blank. You can’t fight the fern!”
Hazelpaw laughed. “Don’t worry, Blank,” he reassured fondly, “the fern got what it deserved. I have Wilts to thank for that.” He didn’t look at Wiltingpaw, instead focusing solely on Blankkit.
~Blank~
“The fern hurt you! I wanna get a few good scratches in! Was it that fern?” Voi bounded towards a fern
~Wiltingpaw~
He chuckled, and just then, Featherfall came back.
~Featherfall~
“I’m so sorry Hazelpaw!! We were out of the supplies I needed!”
He didn’t wait for a reply before starting to tend to Hazelpaw’s wounds
Hazelpaw laughed and glanced at Wiltingpaw, about to say something when Featherfall came back. “It’s ok, Featherfall. I had some company.” He smiled at Blankkit and Wiltingpaw.
Marshpaw peeked into the medicine den, sighing with relief when she saw Hazelpaw. “Are you ok?” She asked, not noticing Wiltingpaw. “Blackpaw said something about Wiltingpaw and hunting.” She froze when she saw Wiltingpaw.
Hazelpaw let out a tense sigh. “It wasn’t Wiltingpaw’s fault,” he meowed, not using his nickname. “We were ordered to hunt and just ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
~Wiltingpaw~
His tail flicked in disdain, looking away from Marshpaw.
~Blankkit~
Seeing this, Blankkit followed Wiltingpaw, refusing to look at Marshpaw.
~Featherfall~
“Marshpaw right now isn’t the best time!”
His voice was muffled from the herbs in his mouth
Marshpaw guiltily ducked head. “Oh, uh, sorry Featherfall!” She frantically apologized. “I’ll be going now.” She backed up out of the den, glancing at Wiltingpaw, before leaving.
Hazelpaw looked at Wiltingpaw and Blankkit. “She didn’t mean it,” he whispered softly. “It wasn’t your fault.”
~Featherfall~
He finished with the herbs, standing up.
“Wiltingpaw can I trust you to make sure Hazelpaw is alright for tonight? It’s half-moon..”
~Wiltingpaw~
He nodded and stood up, helping Hazelpaw to his nest before sitting down beside him, licking Blankkits fur.
“You can. I’ll watch over him, even if he might not need it”
For a second he had a sparkle of amusement in his, but it died as quickly as it came as his eyes traveled to Hazelpaw wounds and the memory of how Marshpaw looked at him flooded his brain.
Hazelpaw smiled at Wiltingpaw, but frowned when he noticed Wiltingpaw’s expression change. He didn’t say anything, just slightly brushed his tail across Wiltingpaw’s flank.
~Wiltingpaw~
He watched as Featherfall padded out, turning to Blankkit
“Could you go fetch Hazie a nice fresh mouse from the pile?”
~Blankkit~
“Yes!”
With that, the kit ran out
Hazelpaw worriedly looked at Wiltingpaw. “Are you ok?” He asked gently.
