Mistykit leaned forward eagerly as she listened to the elder speak. Her tail twitched behind her with excitement.

Perchclaw walked into the den after a tiring day. She spotted Whitefeather giving a kit a story, "Yeah, and I remember that Brightstar awarded us by fighting off that badger" She mewed, "And I think that prize was a day off from working"

The kit turned her head really fast as she heard another cat’s voice, resulting in her being dizzy for a few seconds. Her eyes sparkled when she realized it was Perchclaw.

Mistykit watched the gathering from inside the nursery, trying to listen. She glanced back at Owlkit to see where he’d gone. Her fur smoothed down as she listened to the meeting.

Lilacdawn had been finishing a piece of fresh-kill along the edge of camp when she lifted her head and noticed Twilightstar. She quickly finished off the rabbit between her paws and stood as the familiar summons rang out across the clearing, then stood and found her way over to the Breezerock. Something didn’t seem right, but at this point Clan meetings didn’t seem to hold much good news, so perhaps that was all that was coming to mind: the thought that more bad news was about to be delivered. Pale yellow eyes gazed up at WindClan’s leader as she began to speak.

As the gray tabby she-cat had feared, it wasn’t good news. Several apprentices and Ashfeather had been close to the ShadowClan border and things had gone wrong. A shudder ran down her spine as she imagined what Dawnstar must have done to her Clanmate, and she tried to press the idea from her mind. Instead she bowed her head like several others had, murmuring a goodbye to Ashfeather. She hadn’t known the other cat well, but she still felt the need to send the molly off well. Unfortunately it seemed others wanted a fight more than they wanted to mourn the lost. While she agreed that Dawnstar had gone too far with killing Ashfeather, Lilacdwn wasn’t sure that WindClan was in a position to fight back yet.

Lilacdawn listened and nodded as Fallownose told them the plan. It sounded like a good one to her, and she had done something similar before, so as long as the rabbits were actually there she felt they had a good chance. “That’s a good plan. Would you like me to head up to the burrow and chase them down toward you or would you like to do that?” she asked. The gray tabby was quick on her feet but it was his idea, so if he wanted to be the one to scare the rabbits she didn’t want to take that from him.

(That's ok, Clock! And sorry I didn't get back on last night to reply, bad brain day.)

What on earth? Rippleshade barely knew the cat, so her anger was more focused toward Dawnstar and her neverending thirst for feline blood. How could a cat turn so bloodthirsty? How did that cat even receive her nine lives? Thats nine more then that cat should have left by this point. And the ShadowClan cats. How could they live like this?

Although he was a young warrior, he demanded respect and strength and emmediately, a few cats clustered behind him in favor of fighting, other young beasts like him. Strikefur had broad shoulders, long claws, and a lithe body made for brutality and hunting. His fur was black, streaked with red slashes like claw marks He had been named Strikefur after getting a hit in against wartail, one of the most powerful cats in all the clans who had been his mentor. He had been fast enough to become Strikepaw and later, Strikefur. His broad shoulders were raised in anger,"Ashfeather, may you rest in starclan, but we WILL avenge you. I swear this." He growled. He looked at any cats, his claws out, daring them to contradict him.

Fallownose pinned his ears slightly as another cat decided to yowl about attacking ShadowClan when Twilightstar had specifically said they weren't going to. "Strikefur, be quiet. Twilightstar said we are not going to be attacking ShadowClan, and that's that. And as much as I hate it, WindClan crossed the border first, there's nothing we can do. Now stop disgracing Ashfeather with your yowling and let the cats who care grieve in peace." All of this was said quite harshly, but softly as well so as not to draw too much attention. He didn't want to cause a scene, but StarClan this cat needed to shut up!

Eldersky attends the meeting at a distance, sitting just outside of the nursery. There was a feather in her throat, or something. She clears it and then coughs. Flexing her toes, the queen frowns at the news that Twilightstar delivered. Back in the leader's den, she was reminded of their conflicts. Their constant, ceaseless conflicts. The tabby was not surprised in the slightest, and held no sorrow for the lost warrior she did not know.

Her thoughts go to Fernpaw, and her gaze wanders for him. Unlike his sister, he might have been taking this hard.

Rippleshade walked over to the queen. "I'm so sorry. It must be hard to have an apprentice at this time. It could be worse though. You could be in ThunderClan." Just be glad we're okay now @implimm
