(Wow, thanks for making all of this! Honeytail is a white she cat with a yellow tail, amber eyes)
Robinflight managed her way up the tumble of rocks to Sweetstar's den, her legs still aching from her tree climbing. Once she got in, Sweetstar was sitting in her nest. Automatically, she asked the question "Where were you and Crowfang?"
"We were in our territory. I like to take walks at night to clear my thoughts. I've done this before, and no one has ever said anything because I came back right away. But, when I found Crowfang, we fell asleep and decided to hunt once we woke up."
"Weren't you supposed to be on Dawn Patrol?" She said supposed with emphasis.
"Yes..."
Sweetstar was quiet for a long moment and Robinflight started to glance around like she does when she gets nervous and uncomfortable. Finally, Sweetstar said "Robinflight, as an older warrior than Crowfang, I would have expected you to take leadership in a 'situation' that you had gotten yourselves into. Since Crowfang is taking care of the queens, you will take care of the elders until the next half moon. Hunt for them and care for them before you go about anything else in your day, unless called on patrol." Robinflight dipped her head and began to exit the next, but Sweetstar continued "Don't do anything like that again, and perhaps you may get an apprentice too." Robinflight made her way out of the den and grabbed some food from the prey pile, making sure there were at least six, and padded to the elder's den. Hah! Like I'll ever get an apprentice! I would be a horrible mentor, and that's pretty obvious. Robinflight distributed prey to the elders, and was relieved to see the nests were already finished.

OOC: No Problem XD took me ages to think off all those names & descriptions
IC: Crowfang was leaving the elder's den when she saw Robinflight walking towards the den with enough prey for every elder. "Greyfoot is asleep, I'm going to fetch Yarrowtail." Dipping her head, she crossed the clearing & entered the medicine cave. Yarrowtail was trying to get Fallenkit to eat some herbs. Crowfang touched the medicine cats shoulder with her tail. "Greyfoot is asleep but she seems ill. She smells sour and her belly looks bloated." Yarrowtail sighed. "I'll do what I can for her, but she's been sick for a few days. That's why she joined the elders den moons before she should have. But Fallenkit ate some crowfood and he's refusing to eat the herbs, says their yucky." His eyes glinted with amusement but his tone was flat. Everyone knew he didn't have much patience for kits. "Can you try to get him to eat these while I go check Greyfoot again?" Crowfang dipped her head then turned to the ginger and black patched kit, who was currently shaking in his nest. "Come on Fallenkit, these aren't that bad. You want to go back to your mother, don't you?" Crowfang plucked a thyme leaf from the cave where Yarrowtail kept his herbs. "If I eat this, will you eat yours?" The kit looked up at her, his eyes dull and sad. "But their so yucky....." His voice was weak. "I don't like yucky things...." Crowfang laid down and tucked her paws under her, right next to his nest. "I know their yucky, but they'll make you feel better. I promise." She curled her tail around him. "I know your littermates miss you, I know your mother misses you! You want to go back to them don't you?" Fallenkit eyed the herbs warily. His eyes widened as Crowfang ate the thyme leaf then scrunched up his nose and ate the herbs that Yarrowtail had set in front of him. He stuck his tongue out, flicking it against his nose and licking his whiskers. "Ew!" Crowfang purred with laughter. "See, not so bad! When you're all better, I'll take you back to Brookpounce, ok?" As Fallenkit curled up to sleep, Yarrowtail came back in. "You would make a great medicine cat, even though you just wasted a thyme leaf." He narrowed his eyes as Crowfang flicked her tail. "I mean it. You can still change your mind, you know. I'm not joining Starclan anytime soon so I can have plenty of time to-" Crowfang jumped up, startling Fallenkit and Yarrowtail. "Enough! I told you before, I will tell you again! I do not want to be a medicine cat! I want kits, I want a mate! I want to even be the next clan leader!" With that, she kinked her tail angrily and stormed out.

(Robinflight probably has some Skyclan blood by the way xD Just wanted to mention why she was in love with climbing trees!)
Robinflight finished up the day by cleaning ticks off Grasstail with mousebile. He thanked her, and with that, she made her way towards a stream since her paws smelled rancid. She quietly dipped her paws in the cold water. Robinflight was the type of cat who thought about her future quite often. But she decided right then to just focus on the day itself. She also decided right then that she would fail miserably at that. Robinflight shifted her focus to something else: Crowfang. Robinflight still wanted to figure out what Crowfang was doing last night, knowing that her excuse wasn't all truth. Maybe she should just talk to her? But she wouldn't give in to that. She thought over it awhile more, then decided that she couldn't do anything about it just yet. Robinflight retracted her paws from the stream and trotted back to the camp. When she entered, she saw Silverkit and Redtooth playing together, Fernheart watching lovingly. Robinflight sighed and gazed at them for a quick moment, then forced herself to look away. Seeing the day was close to ending, she grabbed the smallest piece of prey she could find, being a mouse, thinking she didn't deserve much at the moment. She found a space at the edge of the camp and began to eat.

Crowfang avoided Yarrowtail as much as possible, preferring to fill the freshkill pile & hunting for the queens. She spent half of the rest of the day hunting, bring back two finches & a squirrel. The prey was finally starting to retreat into its dens, so she couldn't find any voles but she was glad she spotted the squirrel. It was very plump, & it could feed all the queens. Recently, Ivytwig had moved into the nursery but no one knew who the father was. As she walked into camp after her last hunt, bring in a mouse and small thrush, she saw Robinflight eating alone. She was suddenly bowled over by a blur of orange, white, and gray patched kits. Brookpounce was over in an instant. "Kits, leave Crowfang alone!" The kits fell off Crowfang, theirs heads hanging. "I'm so sorry Crowfang, their father is out on patrol & they've been cooped up in the den all day. Now, say you're sorry." "We're sorry....." All the kits mumbled. Crowfang purred. "It's alright, no harm done. That was a very good ambush though, I never saw you coming! Why don't you all see if the elders would like the prey I caught? Maybe they'll tell you a story on the Sun Stones." With that, the kits and the prey were suddenly rampaging across the clearing towards the elders, who were currently snoozing on the Sun Stones. "Crowfang, I actually needed to ask you something. Did you yell at Yarrowtail earlier?" Brookpounce looked worried. "Fallenkit said you got really mad at him, is everything ok?" Sighing, Crowfang sat down for a moment. "Yes, but it's only because Yarrowtail tried to get me to become his apprentice again. I didn't mean to scare Fallenkit, is he ok?" Brookpounce nodded. "Yes, he's fine. Sleeping in the nursery right now but he was worried about you. You don't get angry very often, and I know he looks up to you. I think he's hoping you'll mentor him when he becomes an apprentice." She sighs. "But while his littermates will be apprentices in the next quarter moon, he won't be one until probably the next full moon after tomorrow night." Shaking her head, she got up. "But, I just wanted to make sure you were ok. See you Crowfang." With a nod, Crowfang grabbed a dove from the freshkill pile and looked for a place to sit and eat. She saw Thrushfoot watching her expectantly, but she looked away awkwardly and decided to sit down by Robinflight. "Are you not that hungry?"

Name: Icepelt Age: 36 Moons Gender: Female Parents (Mom/dad): Bluestreak/Lionstar Clan: Grassclan(My clan), Thunderclan Siblings: Frostheart --------Appearance-------- Pelt Color: White and bluish gray tabby spots with solid bluish gray paws, chest, and muzzle. Eyes: Pale Icy Blue Tail Length: Avrage Body Type: Small Fur Type: Very fluffy and thick Markings (Scars & Otherwise): Missing right side of face with torn ears and battle scarred legs and back.
Icepelt is an average warrior who is not the best swimmer or climber but a decent fighter though can be at a disadvantage with her blind spot. She is kind and a good leader though is self conscious and thinks lowly of herself due to her appearance. Some backstory is she lost her eye to a fox attack as an apprentice defending the nursery by herself. After her loss, her brother picked on her due with cats from the other clans during gatherings and she never knew her father. Despite this, she is as loyal as any other cat to her clan and does her best to serve it. ---------------------------------------- A small but fluffy battle scarred she-cat stalked around the border of Riverclan peering over to the other side of the lake. Today she as on border potrol alone and decided to hunt some before heading back to camp. SHe opened her jaw a bit before sniffing the the air, letting the scents of the forest fill her nostrils. Once she scented something to the northeast of her, she got down low, gwe belly just off the ground as she kept her torn ears perked listening intently for the sound of the starling she scented.

Robinflight looked at Crowfang when she asked the question. "I'm just thinking, as usual." Robinflight took a bite out of her mouse and asked "Why don't you ever sit by Thrushfoot? He's a sweet tom, maybe you should give him a chance. It couldn't hurt." Robinflight was messing with her a bit, trying to lighten her own move. Crowfang was good with kits, and she felt like she was the opposite. Crowfang could have everything she couldn't... Robinflight shook her head and went back to eating. You really need to stop thinking so much.
(Don't worry Robin won't become like a mad killer xD)

Crowfang shrugged. "I like him, he's ok. But he's already asked to be my mate." She sighed quietly. "&.....I like someone else. I don't think Thrushfoot would be a good mate for me anyway. He's not exactly a fighter, he's also kind of.....boring, to be honest. Plus, he doesn't want kits. I've asked." She tore the wing off her dove violently. "I just wish he would find someone else in the clan to like." She started removing some of the feathers. "Juniperheart's moving into the nursery already, but apparently she doesn't want to be mates with Volepelt. She admits he's the father, but doesn't seem to care if their mates anymore." She took neat, rapid bites, her tail twitching.

Robinflight looked down at her prey, her eyes clearly angry and firey at the news of Juniperheart. How could anyone be so ungrateful for someone like Volepelt? She could understand Thrushfoot, he was clingy. All she could ever wish for was a family, and some she-cats throw it away as if it's nothing. It's and honor to have kits for your clan. Robinflight took a moment to reply, trying to calm herself. She thought over what Crowfang said, thankful for her short term memory at that moment. She shifted herself and looked at her friend. "Y-you said you like someone else, then you say you wish from someone else in the clan to like? You wanna go talk about this somewhere less... populated?"
(Hex I always come on somehow when you comment on this thread so then I can reply almost automatically xD)

(lol that's awesome XD)
Crowfang shot her a look and spoke quietly. Thankfully, all their clanmates were busy and far enough away that they couldn't hear them. "I do like someone else, but I would rather not say who right now. But unfortunately all the males in the clan except for Volepelt and Thrushfoot are taken, and I can't be a mate to my father obviously or Yarrowtail, so I've looked elsewhere." She took a deep breath. "If Thrushfoot would find someone else, dealing with him would be easier." She finished off her dove as Fallenkit came out of the nursery and bounded over to where his littermates were. "I promise this though: I will never betray my clan with who I like." With that, she started grooming her back in a lazy way.

Robinflight finished eating her mouse and said "Well that's good." She felt a little awkward for asking that. She quietly padded to the elders den to see if they needed anything. Luckily, they were fed and content. Robinflight scanned the camp and saw Volepelt eating alone. She went over to him, and they started talking. She said "I'm sorry to hear about Juniperheart." "Thanks." "What about the kits?" "I'm hoping Juniperheart and I will somehow get along again for the kits." Robinflight and Volepelt chatted for awhile longer, then she went to her nest, knowing she probably shouldn't go take a walk in the forest just yet. Curling up, she thought to herself, There's no one for me here, either.

When Robinflight had left, Crowfang sighed. She knew she couldn't leave the territory tonight but she could at least sit by the lake before nightfall. With that thought in her head, she padded out of camp and down to the shore.
She stretched and found a smooth spot covered in flat rocks and laid down, curling her long tail over her back and closing her eyes. After awhile, she could hear some splashing and opened them, thinking that maybe a fish was close by and was startled to see a Riverclan cat climbing out of the water. Peering around, they dashed up to her. "There you are! Is everything ok from last night?" Purring for a moment, Crowfang pressed her muzzle to his then jerked back in surprise. "Wait! What are you doing here! There's a hunting patrol out, you could get caught!" He sighed. "I-I-I know, but I was worried about you. Pikeheart followed me to the gathering island, and you saw your clannmate, so I thought you wouldn't be able to sneak away tonight. I decided to come here by the shore just in case I could see you." "Splashheart, please leave. I can't have any of my clanmates see you!" Crowfang's eyes were wide with fear. "I did get in trouble, but no one knew I was meeting you. I'm taking care of the queens by myself until the next half moon, so I can't see you til then. I'm sorry!" With that, she licked his cheek and bounded off.

Robinflight finally closed her eyes and fell into sleep. Her dreams were filled with Crowfang sneaking away, and Volepelt having a horrible life with Juniperheart. She probably dreamed these things because she was thinking about them as she drifted off. Robinflight saw that she had slept for awhile, and noticed everyone but Crowfang was in her nest.

Crowfang felt to restless to sleep, so she went night hunting. Her dark pelt helped hide her from the prey and she got lucky. By moonhigh, she had five mice, two voles, and a fat crow buried near the camp. As she started carrying it back to camp, she noticed a cat leaving the camp. She stopped but didn't try to hide this time since she hadn't left the territory and had nothing to hide that night.

Robinflight quickly made her way to the gathering place. She was meeting someone, someone who actually made her feel accepted. She waited patiently, and soon saw a cat emerge from the shadows. "Fangstrike!" She said quietly, but happily. A few days ago on a lone patrol, they met eachother, and after talking, they decided to meet. No one knew, she hadn't even thought about it for awhile. She didn't know, however, he was Crowfang's brother. They talked in hushed tones and soon curled up together.
