RiverClan Territory

[Dovey]

Almondpaw sat down. He missed Wavepaw. When was the last time he'd seen her? Who rembers...
[ @~RooRoo~ ALmondpaw Might need to see wave :d He's in love UwU

[RedHead]

Ripplepaw's eyes widened in surprise. Lionstar wanted her to fight in the water? At least that's what she was making of his statement. She quickly followed him as they padded out into the territory, eyes narrowing. "Have you ever fought in the water? How would you even do that?" She waved her tail around as she loped forwards a few steps, pouncing onto a rock. "Make big splashes so they can't see you or something?" Her eyes then brightened and she let out a laugh. "Most other clan cats can't swim though, so if you just get the chance to push them in the water then I think you'll have won just by that. Easy fight right there."
She then gave a nod at his last statement, giving a roll of her eyes. "Honestly if I was in their paws I would do everything in my power to make sure my apprentice gets trained before I mysteriously disappear. It's just rude leaving a young cat alone to figure things out for themselves." She then smiled and pulled her head up proudly. "I guess that's why I'm so good at figuring things out myself. I've had three mentor disappearances worth of practice."

Lionstar didn't understand the mother comment (he was unaware of her relation to the stinky fatty) but he had a different thing in mind for her name. "For it to be a new beginning, I think you deserve a new identity. Completely. Something that.. is less related to the name you previously held: a breath of fresh air from your past."

The subject of rain though.. gave him an idea. "Rainfall brings life to the forest and encourages growth in our environment. When our forest is plagued by destruction, like fires, it washes over the burnt remnants and paves way for a new forest to sprout. I want to give you something that.. encompasses that, something that stands as a reminder to the hope rain can bring to our home."

And.. there was one thing he could think of that'd hit that note for him. "I'd like to name you Mossygrove." It smelled of life. The rain paving way for a new forest to grow, one full of lush plant life and tranquility. A fresh start. In his mind, at least.

Hailstorm didn't know what to say. Mossygrove. It sounded lovely. And the way he described it, the way he spoke so poetically about her journey...it was nearly too much. She had to choke back tears once again. She wasn't used to such open kindness. It felt...nice. Maybe this really would be the fresh start she so desperately needed.

"Thank you, Lionstar," Mossygrove dipped her head again in appreciation, repeating her new name over and over in her head. "This means more than you could ever know."

Aspensky quickly buried his prey for then to retrieve later and gave a nod of confirmation, "Try and pick up a scent to follow and I'll watch to see how you do."

Ashpool was battered and tired after her fight with that rogue. She had finally found her way back to Riverclan. She was tired and out of breathe. She just wanted to see her mate again, but she wasn't sure if she would be allowed back. She didn't mean to be gone long. She had gotten distracted than lost. Ashpool didn't have the best sense of direction.

Flyfur had decided to take a roam through the territory, to get some exercise in and hopefully promote growth an healing in her chest. As she was taking in the sights, the changing of seasons and reminiscing how.much she missed getting out if camp, the smell of an injured clanmate caught her attention and she padded closer, careful in case there was something nearby.
Eventually her gaze fell upon Ashpool, who didn't seem to be in any immediate danger, so she stood and cleared her throat, letting her clanmate know she was nearby and approaching.
"Hey, are you needing help? Either a patch up or show you back to camp?"

Ashpool felt dizzy and she wanted to just throw up, but when she heard a clanmates voice she looked up. The molly was expecting a cat to be nice to her. She had been missing for a moon. Even if she hadn't meant to leave she still felt guilty. "I don't know if I can. I lost my way home and it took me a moon to get back.", she meowed. Ashpool felt her head start to pound. It hurt so much.

Breezehen dipped her head to Sootflare and padded back into the territory, less in a hurry since they would be moving towards the cat. She followed her own scent trail back to where she left Whsikernose, who had taken a seat and deemed to be waiting patiently.
Or at least she thought he was sitting, it look like it, but since he wasn't moving much, she couldn't tell from his outline.

Whiskernose figured it might take some time for her to get back, so he'd sat to he wouldn't begin to pace. He looked up as he heard her return, this time a calmer pace and behind her was.... Sootflare, he believed.
He couldn't quite tell, since Sootflare almost always sat in the deputy spot and not among the crowd of cats.
"Thank you for trusting me enough to at least humor me- I know ShadowClan isn't liked, not after what we did under Icestar's rule- but I need to warn you, Icestar is dead, but moments before she died, she had appointed her daughter, Dawnstripe, as deputy in place.of Beastspark. When her mother was slain, she...."
He looked away, trying to think of the right word, and how to proceed.
"She went insane. I have reason to believe she will come after RiverClan and WindClan, I'm not certain about ThunderClan."
He let out a ragged, shaky breath, fear spiking through him, remembering the exile, the cats that had surged towards her, looking to kill her, only to be nearly killed, despite the odds against her.
The confusion, the horror of the Clan.

Breezehen's brows furrowed and her pelt bristled.
A cat worse than Icestar?
There was no way. Was there?
She turned to Sootflare, waiting for him to say something.
Surely, this was ShadowClan sending someone to scare them, make them paranoid. But.... what would be the point? If RiverClan was that worried, they'd move in to crush them.... unless they had set a trap of sorts?
"I'm not certain I trust him."
There. She said it.

Oh.
She hadn't noticed Ashpool ever went missing. So many cats disappear she stopped noticing.
Besides, it was rare for cats who went missing to be turned away. Lionstar was very understanding.
"Well, let's get you taken care of. Something to eat or drink before you come back with me, ok? We'll just have to try, see if Lionstar will let you come back."
She carefully sidled up to Ashpool, offering her tail to the other to grab if she wanted.
