Default Re: The Thunderwillow

Crowpaw


Sparrowstar spoke words of odd comfort. All Rainpaw wanted to do was return to his days as a kit where things were simpler. Easier. Where his family was happy and together, enjoying their time. As Sparrowstar continued, he found it more interesting that his birth name would be given back to him, just to fit his present status. "T-thank you..." Now being dismissed, Crowpaw glanced at his father and headed back to where he was sitting so the meeting could continue.

Ro, a new member he hasn't even seen up until this meeting, had received his new name: Coyotepaw. Orchidbriar would be his mentor. Next up was a cat named Petalflight. Only the stars knew which Clan that cat belonged to before they came over here. Duskhope was to be their evaluator. Roseraven's status in ThunderClan was the next topic, and Echosong would be evaluating her skills.

The next bout of announcements was a lot of reassignments: Spottedpaw to Thunderclaw; Pollenpaw to Willowlight; Kitepaw to Fallenstep; Honeypaw to Sunsetthorn; Pebblepaw to Sorreldust; Crowpaw to Sootfur; Hazelpaw to Sunfall; Dapplepaw to Creamcloud. Wait, wait, wait... back up. Sootfur is my new mentor? Oh, you've got to be kidding me! My sister was his apprentice, he doesn't like me, I don't like him, and we haven't interacted with each other except one time: when Quietpaw was assigned to him!

Biting his tongue to keep himself from lashing out at Sparrowstar in front of the rest of the Clan, Crowpaw got up and lashed his tail while he scoured the crowd for his sister's old mentor. Once he found the annoying lump of fur, Crowpaw looked Sootfur up and down before he sat down and exhaled his frustrations.

"You didn't do crap to teach my sister being out of camp was bad. Get your fur on straight and teach your apprentice properly. I will not be nice the next time I have to say that." he growled in a low tone so that only his new mentor could hear. "She died saving my life, don't screw up this time, and don't let her memory go in vain. Those are my expectations, and if you fail even one of them, expect to see me being reassigned. Am I being clear?"

The next announcements were about Keepers, which is something that does not interest the young tom one bit. If he had one mouse tail for every Keeper he interacted with, he would have two mouse tails, which isn't a lot but it was weird it happened twice considering he keeps to himself.

Flameheart


Rainpaw, her younger adopted brother, had gotten his old name back. She didn't quite understand the reasoning to be brought back to the old memories of kithood, but perhaps Sparrowstar thought that Crowpaw would have a better time being reminded of the old times when he was still around his littermates and parents? Then two new cats: Ro (now Coyotepaw) and Petalflight were given evaluators along with Roseraven.

Reassignments were covered next, which wasn't all that surprising. Reassignments were in every meeting. Crowpaw was among them, and it looked like Sootfur would be mentoring her brother. Oh dear... good luck, honey... The next announcements were a lot more surprising, though it brought a sort of rush of excitement to the young Keeper. I wonder if I would ever be challenged for my role. I hope not, because I enjoy my job, but I am not prepared to spar with my own Clanmates. Then... the announcement of a fifth Keeper came into her ears.

"Wait, hold on... Sparrowstar, who is the fifth Keeper going to be?" she called up to her leader as she stood up, her eyes full of curiosity.
