The tom looked at his clanmate with hesitation, but finally calmed down. She wasn't going to pull his pelt off, geez. "Oh. Well hello then. Want to run with me?" he asked, slightly more cheerfull. He sat down and started grooming himself, even if he wasn't dirty, he wanted to look nice.

The tom before him seemed hard to read. He expected a guarded expression or maybe even a uncertain one as the apprentice announced that he wanted to go to the Windclan camp in order to see Surgestorm. Though he was a medicine cat, Hannibal knew nothing of Northpaw, leaving the tom surprised when he allowed him return back to camp with him. Northpaw's tail twitched, still unnerved by the older tom due to being unsure about him. His scent is nothing like the other Windclanners... but he's on their territory and offering to bring me to their camp, so he must he in league with them or something along those lines.

He gave a small nod as Hannibal mewed that North seemed like a trustworthy tom. Though he himself was slightly confused since they had just met and knew how awkward his response had been, but was not planning on questioning it. He just wanted to visit Surgestorm and then return back to Zerosight and make sure that his mentor wasn't over doing himself. Zerosight can be stubborn,but it would do no one any good if he pushed himself while he was still under the affect of the smoke in the aftermath of the surprising fire. He could just picture his mentor busying himself now, ignoring his apprentice's words before he departed.

His dark fur seemed to stand a bit on end when the older tom stated that if Northpaw was to attempt anything more than what he had informed him he was there to do, than this wouldn't be the last time their paths crossed. A small shiver ran through him, telling that he was dead serious about his words. He doesn't seem mad or even too mean... but there is something about him, he quickly shrugged this off, reminding himself that this tom was allowing him to continue onto their territory and was bringing him to speak with the medicine cat of Windclan.

Northpaw bounded over towards Hannibal as the stranger called over for him to follow. He tried to not stray too close to Hannibal, still uncertain about the strange smelling cat, and in fear that he might bother him. Not only did he know nothing about him, but he also knew nothing of fighting either. Of course, all medicine cats must learn the basic fighting moves, but only the basic. He wouldn't be able to hold his own in a fight, therefore it seemed wiser to not provoke one. But he did follow relatively close behind, his orbs wandering around the territory to see how much of Windclan was affect by the fire.

@Zero to Hero

A dark figure made his way into the den. He knew that he should quickly speak to Surgestorm and get back to Zerosight to see if his mentor is fine and not overdoing himself, but this was his first time in Windclan and he let his autumn gaze wander around the den. He wanted to see what it was like, even though they had moved camps, plus he was also trying to take in how many herbs had survived.

The young tom was seriously unnerved about this whole trip, even if it was short and nothing could really go wrong. He was still on the fact that he wished Zerosight was here with him, but knew it best to leave the sick tom behind in the safety of the camp in hopes that he might actually let himself rest. If returned to find his mentor in even worse condition, he'd feel so guilty leaving him alone and not watching over him. But the two of them had been worried about Surgestorm and just Windclan in general. Please Zerosight, don't a mouse-brain and please get some rest while I'm out here, he silently pleaded to his mentor.

He felt awkward when he noticed another cat that was in need of Surgestorm's attention. He frowned sympathetically at Stormkit when he realized that the patient was just a kit. He remembered when a small loner kit had been brought to him and Zerosight with a cough. He learned to hate having kit patients, seeing kits injured and in need of a medicine cat's attention was much worse than having an injured warrior. Though neither was all that good. "My apologizes if I'm interrupting something," he mewed awkwardly to his fellow medicine cat. "But when you have a free moment, can we speak?"

MumbleNose folded his ears back at SingeNight's tone, and he narrowed his eyes slightly. He pawed at the ground for a few moments as he thought of what to say. Anything he said could be turned down by the cat before him, and although he didn't really expect to be welcomed, he didn't expect such a harsh turn away. ``Actually, my apprentice and I have been here long before you,`` He retorted, raising his head to meet SingeNight's gaze.

He wouldn't back down in front the cat he both despised and feared. ``We should talk,`` MumbleNose stated, his eyes flashing uneasily. ``About... this.`` He referred to SingeNight's leadership, and the changes brought with it. He wanted to know what would happen when their clanmates had enough, and overthrew him. Would SingeNight be exiled? Killed? Sure, he was an awful father, and he could admit that - silently, though, not out loud. Recently, however, the more he thought about what could happen to his son when this was over - because it would most definitely be over eventually - the more he cared and regretted. Why had he turned away the only reminder he had left of Bliss? Grief.

fawnleap sat in the clearing. there was nothing fun to do and her apprentice wasn't in sight.

As if on cue, Songpaw leaps out into the clearing, her silvery fur shining in the sunlight like water. Spotting her mentor, she waves her tail happily, gracefully padding over to her mentor. Her yellow-green eyes glimmer with excitement. "Hi, Fawnleap!"

Songpaw perks her ears, flicking the end of her tail in thought. In her quiet, sing-song like voice, she replies softly, "Well...I don't know what I want to do for training. What is there to do?" She says. Being pretty new to clan life, she is unsure of how cats even train. She heard from her mother that they train with brutal, dangerous fighting and treat apprentices like dirt...but she didn't believe it, mostly.

She tilts her head at 'helping the elders'. "Helping the elders is training? Really?" She doesn't look annoyed, but happily curious, "Can I learn how to do that?"
