Swiftstar nodded to Barkclaw, "You made the right decision, Barkclaw. Thank you."
She padded a little closer to Cloudypaw but stopped out of clawing distance. She lay on the ground with her paws under her, showing Cloudypaw she wouldn't hurt her. "Are you alright young apprentice? It's okay if you're not."
Cloudypaw shook her head. "Feel free to take prey," Swiftstar said quietly.
That was when Vixenkit appeared from the medicine den, seeming to be summoned by injured cats. She took in the scene she found. Flamepaw, Stormpaw and Mistpaw weren't meeting each others eyes, Stormpaw had a small injured apprentice curled against him. She padded to Stormpaw first, "What is happening?"
"Im not sure." he mewed. "But Rainfrost and Scorchfeather were there." he took a moment to look at large mollys face, at first it was worried but soon it was twisted into either surprise or anger at the mention of the ThunderClan cats names he had spoken. "I took Cloudypaw here because she seemed and looked terrified of them both and the scars of her face aren't any help either. Flamepaw said he had something to do with them…" he whispered the last part as his claws kneaded the ground. "I-I…I think i'm gonna get some prey with Cloudypaw." he finished. "I'm a bit hungry myself…" he looked at Vixenkit, before flicking Cloudypaw on the flank, the silver molly flinched before she looked up. "come on. I'll show you where the fresh-kill pile is." he mewed, Cloudypaw slowly nodded before stumbling to her paws.
Springheart was sitting up now, she looked over at Stormpaw. Her son was guiding her to fresh-kill pile, she watched carefully, when the two made it to the fresh-kill pile she looked up at Stormpaw, Stormpaw mewed something to her. The former queen strained her ears to hear what he had said. she only caught the faint. "have it." Cloudypaw looked back down and took a plump rabbit from the top of the pile. "poor dear…she's frightened…." she mewed, looking around the clearing she saw Mistpaw, her daughter, sitting down next to the ThunderClan tom. The blue-grey she had a look of denial on her face. Springheart knew something was up, but what?
Barkclaw nodded, "of course Swiftstar." he turned to face Stormpaw but his apprentice was gone. Looking around her saw that Stormpaw was leading Cloudypaw, the ThunderClan apprentice that had gotten injured, towards the fresh-kill pile. He looked away, he didn't need to see what she was gonna choose. Looking up, his amber gaze landed on the nursery. He could see his mother, Froststorm quietly talking with his sister, Featherbreeze. He also noticed Wolfkit and Rainkit tussling around in the heather covered den, Hopkit was huddled next to Featherbreeze, he sighed. "what does she even see in Thistlepad?" he wondered as he turned and padded into the warriors den.
sorry this is late qwq ))
Vixenkit shrugged and hopped off to find Swanfeather or Whitestreak. She found Swanfeather in the medicine den and quickly listed what she thought Cloudypaw would need. The she bounced away to find Mistpaw and Flamepaw because she knew she probably wasn't needed yet.
She found them where she'd left them, ignoring each other in the middle of the camp. She went to Mistpaw first. "What's wrong, what did I miss?" She asked, "I miss apprenticeship with you guys by half a moon and I miss all the good stuff!"
Cloudypaw stuck close to Stormpaw as they ate. She kept her eyes up, darting around watching cats as they poked their heads out of dens or around corners to watch her, their eyes full of curiosity, not malice, as she expected. 'WindClan isn't like Whitestar and his cronies, they're kind and they question things.' she reminded herself. She glanced at Stormpaw, then closed her eyes to continue eating. StarClan, they hurt. Fawnstar was going to be angry with Rainfrost and Scorchfeather when he found out. Good.
Swiftstar padded back to Springheart and pressed her head under the queens chin. "Very much so." She said, flicking her eyes to the young she-cat. "Why does this always happen to WindClan, while I'm leader. I think Squirrelstar would like something to happen over at RiverClan, I would even say she's bored."
Hawkwillow practically crashed into his brother as he entered the warriors den. "Oh hi, Barkclaw!" He touched Barkclaw's head with his nose. "Sorry." He looked outside and mewed, "Did you find some lost ThunderClan cats?"
Barkclaw looked up at his brother, he nodded. "it's fine.. and uh, yeah, I did. ThunderClan seems to be less aggressive, thank StarClan. Scorchfeather threatened a border skirmish." he flicked his tail has his brother sat down next to him. "She seemed excited to fight to. Whitestar really messed her up. I remember when Whitestar was still deputy. I wonder why he was even chosen. Hollystar was such a kind and just leader, at least, from what I remember." he mewed. "how do you think Featherbreeze is doing? I haven't been in the nursery in at least a moon, patrols and stuff."
Springheart laughed. "oh, im sure exciting things are happening in RiverClan. plus, don't you remember? Mothfoot died during the battle again ThunderClan and Silversong was chosen as the new deputy! I thought you would remember that! I haven't even been to a gathering in a while and I've been caught up on the latest gossip!" she purred as Swiftstar chuckled. "But yes, im sure RiverClan is bored. but they do live nicely. oh! remember that time RiverClan cats had to stay in out camp because of a fire that burnt down their nursery and warrior den? Wasn't Minnowstar still leader then?"
Stormpaw smiled as Cloudypaw relaxed, the fear scent had disappeared. that was good. Stormpaw looked down at the rabbit the silver molly was eating, or well, she was eating. A pile of rabbit bone and some small, brown clumps of rabbit fur lay at Cloudypaw's small white paws. "You finished that already?" he mewed. "wow, that must be a record… a-are you still hungry?" he asked, Cloudypaw curled her tail around her side at the question. "you can have some more food if you want! I'm sure Swiftstar won't mind." he smiled.
"We could make the same argument about Fawnstar. Why Whitestar chose him I mean." Hawkwillow mewed, then darted his eyes down. He shook himself off. "Featherbreeze is doing well, very tired I expect. The kittens are perfectly healthy. They're all eating well. I took them a rabbit with Ashpaw yesterday because Ashpaw wanted to give it to them himself. He fell down a rabbit hole. found out he could use the walls to get around and managed to catch a rabbit down there. He was very proud." Hawkwillow's smile suddenly turned to a frown. "Thistlepad hasn't visited much."
Swiftstar chuckled, "Yes, I remember. We followed Squirreltail around everywhere." She looked into the distance, and purred softly. "Do you remember the gathering when Ravenheart argued with the deputy, Pollendust, in front of everyone?" she mewed, "Or my first gathering as leader, when Whitestar called me a mousebrain?"
Cloudypaw shook her head. It was the biggest meal she'd eaten in ages and she was thoroughly full. Whitestar's leadership had had terrible consequences on the territory and the cats in it. "Tell me about you, your clan, anything." She said, her voice quiet and curious. She didn't mean to be nosy, or to gather information for her twisted mentor, only to learn about her new friend and his home.
"Me?" he mewed. "Well.. My dad's a kittypet. My mom is Springheart, the one next to Swiftstar. they're mates actually. uhh, My sister, Mistpaw, Vixenkit, and Flamepaw brought back ShadowClan! I'm sure everyone already know about that now…" Stormpaw paused. "uhh…I'm supposed to be a medicine cat. but i'm not." he nervously chuckled at the surprised expression he got from Cloudypaw. He knew wasn't supposed to tell her everything about his life but he wanted to, plus, she did ask. "Im apart of a now solved prophecy. Something about finding the shadow and stuff. Oh! I can see ghosts!" he smiled. "i'm sure I can find Snowbreeze, Stormtuft or some one around here." he muttered the last sentence as he began to scan the WindClan camp. Featherbreeze and Froststorm where in the nursery, the three new kits, Wolfkit, Rainkit, Hopkit where messing around in the nursery. Stormcloud was gathering a patrol. Swiftstar and his mom were still at Tallrock. hmm come on… sighing he looked over at Cloudypaw but jumped back when he saw a new cat standing though Cloudypaw, their face was meer inches away from his. He flinched away from the ghost.
"o-oh.. well then. I see a new cat." he stuttered. "u-uh…looks to be a… a very large, fluffy cat….no distinct markings…..purely white…" he listed off traits like how the cat he was seeing had amber eyes and a scarred muzzle and a torn ear. He was saying so much stuff that he didn't notice Vixenkit, Mistpaw, and Flamepaw behind him. "Stormpaw?" the brown tabby bristled as he snapped his head to face Mistpaw. "oh uh, hey!" "what are you doing?" he looked back at the ghost cat. they were now sitting down behind Cloudypaw staring into him with unblinking amber eyes. "I see a new cat. a new ghost cat."
The new ghost that Stormpaw is seeing is Rainfrost's mother, Sister. ))
Sister is a clan cat with a rogue name. she was with Whitestar -then known as Whitetalon- because she actually truly loved him. When Sister found out she was pregnant, she ran away for unknown reasons and while she was running away she went into labor a moon and a half early. She gave birth to 3 kits but the third one was born stillborn and was sadly never named. The two kits she had and survived were Rainfrost and Darkthroat. Whitetalon finds Sister and the kits and begs to take them back to the clans so they can be raised as warriors and so they don't die out in the cold. Sister agrees but under one circumstance. She wouldn't go with them. Whitetalon hesitates but with some persuasion, he finally caves in. Whitetalon takes Rainkit and Darkkit to ThunderClan to be raised. Turns out Whitetalon is an abusive father. When Darkkit is an apprentice, Darkpaw, he runs away because he want to find his mother. Darkpaw leaves in the middle of the night and that's when Whitetalon -now he's finally leader- spirals into a more aggressive insanity. He lost his mate, and one of his newborn kits and now he just lost another one of his sons. (this happens at least a year or two before the rp starts btw.) so back with Darkpaw. he gives himself his own warrior name, Darkthroat. Darkthroat manages to find Sister, who moved to a fair and lived among the other fair cats. Darkthroat finds out that his mother is old and weak and is literally going to die any day now. So Darkthroat spends the last few days with his mom before she leaves to join the ranks of StarClan. Sister died happy knowing that both of her sons are happy in ThunderClan and Whitestar finally became leader. ))
what I wrote was alot so go wild with this lol– ))
Cloudypaw didn't move as Stormpaw was looking near her, at the ghost she assumed, so she stayed still. She closed her eyes again. They hurt.
"Another one?" Vixenkit mewed flatly, her anger evident in her voice though she tried to hide it.
"Apparently." he mewed. "I thought I couldn't see anymore ghosts. Snowbreeze told me so." He was still looking at the translucent white cat, stars danced in their pelt. "they kinda smells funny." he wrinkled his nose. "like something sweet…? I don't know." (htf do you describe cotton candy from a cat perspective??) The ghost stood up and nosed towards the WindClan entrance. "h-huh? what?" the cat jumped over Cloudypaw with a large leap and then pointed with their paw at the WindClan entrance. Stormpaw had now changed his position. He was staring at the WindClan entrance with flickering dark blue eyes, his ears perked up like he heard something, and his tail was swaying slowly behind him. "so…the ghost moved…" He heard Vixenkit mew something along the line of: "we can all tell." Stormpaw ignored Vixenkit. "I think it's telling us to…follow…them? they seem to really want to take us outside the camp."
Barkclaw lashed his tail and quietly growled. "Of course he hasn't. Thistlepad is ungrateful rat!" he spat, his claws digging into the moss nest he lay in. After a few moments of silence, he spoke up. "do you remember Windflight?" (was that his name??) "Featherbreeze's best friend." he saw Hawkwillow slowly nod. "that poor tom was found in the lake, dead. I've never seen Featherbreeze so sad…" he sighed. "honestly, I thought Windflight was gonna be mates with Featherbreeze.." he looked at the nursery. Featherbreeze was looking out into the clearing. A saddened expression spread on her face. He guessed she was looking around the busy clearing in search of Thistlepad. Barkclaw crossed his paws, "Featherbreeze deserves someone way better…"
Springheart purred as Swiftstar kept mewing memories. "Of course I remember all of those! I wasn't to happy when Whitestar called you a mousebrain. oh! remember that time at when we both snuck out of camp and went to the island and climbed all the way to the top of the trees to look at the stars, when we were both apprentices?" she smiled as she remembered how close she felt to the shimmering, lights. She also remembered how Swiftstar almost fell of the branch. "oooh! or that time when I caught that giant rabbit and you had to help me haul it back to camp?" she chuckled. "it was so heavy, dear StarClan. my neck hurt after that." the former queen flicked her fluffy tail as a chuckle escaped her lips.
I HAVE IDEA THAT I ALREADY SHARED WITH Z BUT I WANNA SHARE IT HERE– ))
So, what if Ashpaw and Crystalpaw pulled a Swiftpaw and go to fight dogs (or something( to prove they can be true warriors even if they have a disability– because like, Ashpaw's blind and he feels like he's weak because he can't see, and Crystalpaw is Autistic and just has a hard time learning. ))
PEOPLE GIVE ME OPINIONS!!! @Dragongirl2468 @No-Im-Not-Important ))
ah– so should we have this happen in the rp?? ))
I kinda want it to happen but I just- I don't want big sad to happen– ))
(:0 Nonononoononononononononoono no big sad)
qwq okiiiiii OH! what if Ashpaw and Crystalpaw just get even more injured but they do survive whatever they were fighting? Like maybe Crystalpaw has a broken leg or smthn? ))
I just don't want them the have a big sad ))
(Oki. I feel like a big sad should happen to Flamepaw.)
(Oki. I feel like a big sad should happen to Flamepaw.)
(I was scripting some voice acting lines for a trailer of sorts and I planned a kind of big sad but I can't show you the script until its done)
(About the trailer, I do want to animate it but need voice actors but that shouldn't be too hard. I do think there are parts that could be way more dramatic and fitting with swear words but I know there are none in warriors and I don't know if you guys are okay with that.)
irl i swear lol. as long as there aren't to many swears im sure i'd be good with it but thats me :T ))
