open Warrior Cats RP

@@Wolves, Poppyfur brightened up at the thought of maybe training one of the kits when they were ready. She also decided to stay in camp rather than go on patrol; the thought that Shadowclan warriors were nearby was very worrying, especially since there were several queens with kits in camp. It was just as well to have a strong guard in camp in case an attack came.

"They should be careful," Midnightstar replied. "Thunderclan obviously are aware of our increased patrols in their territory; they are sending out more warriors on their own patrols. Make sure our strongest warriors go with you when you search for herbs."

 

The sickness was very worrying to Midnightstar. She thought reluctantly that they might have to organise a meeting at Fourtrees with the Thunderclan leader, as there was no telling whether it might spread to other clans; in fact, it was more than likely that it would. Midnightstar didn't care overmuch about Thunderclan in itself, but a meeting would ensure that Thunderclan warriors did not interfere with the medicine cat needing to gather herbs in their territory.

The patrol edged closer to the loner, as he gestured with his paw in his unaware state of sleep. One curious apprentice padded forward, until he was just two tail lengths away from the grey and black spotted rogue. Then she turned to her mentor, who nodded, signalling the rest of the patrol to rudely awaken the loner with hostile caterwauling and surround him.

 

The loner would only barely move, when they began yowling, slightly raising his head to blink at his surroundings. 

 

He cracked a grin. 

 

"Well. I was wondering when my alarm clock would go off. I haven't overslept, have I?" He asked obnoxiously, with a bemused flick of his tail, getting up to stretch on the rock. "I must say, considering the sun, I'm late for a nap overdue over in the other side of the forest. Be a sport, and let me pass, mm?"

@@P-Jay Suddenly, the patrol stopped in tracks. One older warrior tilted his head, confused, to one side. The loner's casual and bemused demeanor was something rather unfamiliar, considering the situation he was in. "Get out of out territory and we shall leave you in peace," the warrior meowed calmly.

 

@@Pripyat Pony Twigblaze flicked her tail and nodded in agreement with her leader. "Looks like the dawn patrol is just leaving," she mentioned. "is it alright if I head out with them?" She asked Midnightstar the question, just in case she was required to help around the camp.

 

@@The Cerberus Kitestar smiled at her deputy and then padded down from the highrock to inspect every den in the camp, making sure each was plenty secure. There was a rather bare looking patch of brambles sheltering one area of the apprentices' den, she realised.

Slumberfur and Darkpaw arrived to the area in the forest that had lot of bushes and one rock that was about size of five toms, Slumberfur just finished telling Darkpaw about warrior code and it's importance. He jumped on the rock, "So, no let's see how quietly you can move, I close my eyes and only use my ears trying to avoid your attacks, Imagine that I'm the pray and you are hunting me"

 

And so Darkpaw started, he went into bushes and tried to sneak onto his teacher, Slumberfur was able to doge and block the attacks for now but Darkpaw didn't give up and kept sneaking from different directions.

"Oh, of course, rightio, I'll get right on that..." The loner bounced off the rock, stretching slightly more. "Although, I must ask: which of you cats are the leader--or at least, the one with most authority--in this little get-together we've got here?"

 

"Because..."

 

He smiled mysteriously. 

 

"...I actually come with a message, from the cats of Twolegplace."

As he approached, his tail flicked once, when the apprentice ran off to alert the leader. Although, he didn't seem concerned at all, over the development. Stalking ever so closer to the steadfast warrior, he would walk until he was directly in front of the bigger cat...

He gently booped the warrior's nose, then sprinted away, giggling.

@@P-Jay The warrior stepped back as the loner patted his nose, then rushed away, giggling. A bewildered expression was etched on his face. One younger warrior chuckled, but the glare he was shot by the eldest warrior silenced him. "Make sure he leaves Thunderclan territory!" he ordered, shaking his head in an attempt to rid of his understandable confusion. The patrol gave chase to Rye, not intending to bother the rogue again if he left their territory.

 

@@Summer Breeze @@Pripyat Pony @@The Cerberus Kitestar decided to visit the medicine cat den, where Willopaw's ill mentor was being cared for. The Thunderclan medicine cat lowered his head and looked at Kitestar. "I'm sorry, but there is nothing I can do," he told his leader. Kitestar tilted her head.

"I had no idea it was so serious..." she said with a tone of realisation. "Has it spread?"

"It is suspected that the illness has come from Shadowclan. He was awfully near to their territory, I have heard..."

"Oh no..." Kitestar murmured. She felt a pang of pity as she fixed her gaze on the brave lost warrior.

"As long as this hasn't spread from him..." the medicine cat mentioned. "Hopefully it will not affect any others of Thunderclan." His voice was hoarse with grief.

"I shall inform Willowpaw, and assign her a new mentor..." Kitestar announced, her tone, too, shaky with sorrow.

 

Kitestar headed over to the apprentices' den and called to Willowpaw.

[Catpone Cerberus 23,436]

After many attempts Darkpaw finally gave up. "You are cheating, I am sure I didn't let any sound."

 

Slumberfur jumped off from the rock and tapped Darkpaws head. "You trust too much to your speed, you have to get closer silently before attacking, and besides your prey has also nose and eyes so sound isn't only thing" "And this is your first day, there is lot of time in front of you to learn"

"You are probably right, but how long are we continuing this?"

"That's enough of that for today, but before the next test, I tell you little bit about sneaking and hunting..." Slumberfur told what Darkpaw should pay most attention to and demonstrated some things.

Wilowpaw woke up and stretched in her moss bed. She had been quite lazy since her mentor got sick, now that she didn't get any training anymore and she also couldn't go with the patrols because she wasn't an apprentice for very long. the other apprentices had already left and she now had the apprentice den all for herself.

 

She thought of going to see if there was any fresh prey already or hanging around with her mother today when she heard a voice calling for her, she recogniced the voice of kitestar. She walked outside to see the leader. I hope this isn't about my little adventure yesterday she thought. She looked at kitestar 'Moring kitestar, what's wrong?' She said when she saw kitestars sad expression. this isn't about my mentor right?  she suddenly realised and waited for kitestars answer with a worried expression on her face.

She pushed her nose against kestreltalon's side but he didn't move. 'I'm so sorry, so sorry.' She said with an almost unhearable voice 'For everytime I didn't listen and ran off.' 

 

willowpaw knew that her mentor had been ill and that it was possible that he wouldn't make it but now that he really was dead she couldn't beleve it. It was just unfair, just when she became an apprentice and started to like her mentor she had to lose him. it was just not fair.

The Shadowclan leader hated to have to go to these lengths, but Shadowclan cats were sick and dying. Any leader would do the same.

Slumberfur and Darkpaw arrived to the clearing. "As you know there is lot of other cats and not all are friendly, and one of warrior's duties is protect the clan what ever it takes." Darkpaw looked at Slumberfur with curiosity "So you are teaching me how to fight?"

"Well, not yet teach but test, so will free to attack" "But, we have to be careful, we are not far from Shadowclan's territory's border, and their patrol has been detected in our territory."

Kitestar padded out of the den, leaving Willowpaw by Kestreltalon's motionless side. She spotted Poppyfur and called to her deputy, hesitantly and slowly explaining what had happened.

 

Twigblaze nodded, agreeing with her honourable leader's words and then walking over to join the dawn patrol. The group headed out into the swampish woods to go and find more herbs and hunt.

 

@@The Cerberus The apprentice who had been sent back in the direction of the Thunderclan camp by the patrol had no idea what had really happened.

As he raced through the territory, he stumbled into a clearing and very nearly crashed right into Darkpaw as he was training with Slumberfur. "Sorry!" he cried.
