Unknown was walking when she scented an unfamiliar scent of Windclan. This was new to her, but then she scented a familiar scent. It was the cat that helped her. The two moon old kitten padded up to her and rubbed her head against her hind quarters. Unknown then felt another presence and cowered to the ground.

Magheera jolted with a start as Unknown rubbed suddenly against her, her slight frame pressing low to the ground as she stared fearfully up at Twilightstar. The cashmere snorted. "It's alright, Unknown," she soothed, and bent down to give the tiny kitten's head a quick, cleansing stroke.
She turned back to face the Clan leader in-front of her. "Twilightstar," she purred, "this is my er... Adoptive, uh... Daughter, Unknown. I-I was wondering if she might be able to uh... join as well? I-I rescued her back in Twoleg place, where a tom was making an attempt to try and hurt her."
Magheera curled back her ears. The words squeezed ger heart as she spoke them, but she quickly forced away the queasy feeling. Moons ago, she, herself, had abandoned her own biological kits! She had left them for the crows. Oh, how maliciously foolish she had been... Ugh.

Although she had threatened exiles a few times, she seemed relatively happy letting them in. She wasn't sure if it was the whole 'making Windclan stronger' thing or not, but he was just glad they were here.
"Sheesh. You had a pretty troubled past, little dude. Just glad you're here now." He grinned, nudging him playfully, "Have you noticed that this is the longest time you've talked to me? Like, ever?"

"Yes. And it was horrible" Eaglepaw commented. The apprentice waited, wondering if his mentor remembered the deal. He would talk and then they'd move onto battle moves.

Adderclaw padded into the clearing, bored. He honestly thought life in WindClan was a bit boring, although he hunted and trained a lot, almost to the point where he was tired all the time. He looked around for a cat that would train with him, a brave soul.

Eaglepaw quickly moved back a few paces."Are you okay?" he asked. He didn't want her to do so much that she would hurt herself.

Basilpaw missed and flicked her tail quickly,” I’m so badly injured“ she meowed before flinging herself at Eaglepaw trying to catch him off guard.

Stormstrike led Snailpaw out to WindClan territory, to do some hunting practice. "Are you ready for hunting?" she said.

Snailpaw smiled. "Yep, I'm ready," she mewed. The young apprentice was always up for training.

Even so, it was still harder to keep up with the many fast and agile warriors that Windclan seemed to hold. Eventually though the two cats had come to a stop, and Reedpaw took a moment to catch his breath. Turning to face Cloudfluff, the apprentice padded up to her with a wide grin. "So what are we learning today? I know how to trip other cats already! But... not much else." Reedpaw gave his paw a quick lick out of embarrassment. He would've liked to brag about what he knew... but there certainly wasn't much. "I'd demonstrate it to you, but now that I've told you... you'll totally see it coming."

Cloudfluff giggled. "Thats alright. No tripping for now, lets focus on a simple, yet effective battle move called the front-paw-blow." The molly batted her paw out, her claws unsheathed at the air. "Thats how you do it." Cloudfluff did it again, slower. "Make sure your claws are sheathed!" She called. "Try it on me, i'll stand still so you can remember how to do it."

Stormstrike smiled. Hunting was one of her favorite things to do, and now she could pass down her skills to the next generation. "There's a rabbit right over there," she pointed out. "It's upwind of us," she mentioned, "which is good, because it can't smell us coming." The rabbit was intent on whatever it was doing, not taking notice of the cats. "I'll demonstrate. First you get into a hunting crouch," she said, demonstrating the moves to the young cat as she spoke. "Stalk up to the pray until you're just close enough, and," her voice now barely a whisper, she jumped up into the air and landed squarely on the rabbit. The rabbit tried to escape from her grasp, but soon she made the killing bite and the rabbit went limp. Stormstrike said a silent thanks to StarClan, and scratched earth over the rabbit. "This will feed the Clan well," she said.

It had been almost a full day and no one had even noticed Crowkits situation or even tried to help him... He had little energy even at the start of the day, not eating as much food as he needed too due to how ill he felt now biting him, but now he didn't even try to raise his head or go to the medicine cat den himself. It's not like he'd get anywhere anyway. And speaking? That was even more laughable than moving, he could barley choke out a single painful noise that was always followed by a horrific coughing fit so even crying for help was a lost cause. He had held hope a queen would see him at the beginning but now?... Maybe another kit would help? Or Creekpaw would wonder where he was and come into the nursery! But he didn't hold hope of that the other kits were too busy playing and Creekpaw never came into the nursery as far as he knew. Crowkit had all but given up on help breath rasping in his chest loudly coughing on occasion when he breathed too deep and he did something he had never did. He started to silently cry shoulders shaking as he hoped for something to happen... anything.
