She seemed a bit surprised. Didn't Aspenstrike come back as well? That's what he remembered. He wondered where the former leader went off to now. Probably no where good. She was no good. She should never have come back. Not when most likely she was off somewhere else to call home. Starclan wasted their time bringing her back didn't they. "Of course they brought me back. Couldn't handle me I'm afraid.", he meowed, half joking, giving a playful wink. Most likely it was true. He was way too immature for starclan to handle. He looked over at Cloverpaw. Perhaps he should explain himself. They hadn't been in the clan for a long time.
Cloverpaw - Transgender Male[he/him] - Post 17
The apprentice looked up at Wildspark. What did they mean by they brought him back? He thought it was a little weird, but he wasn't no stranger to weird. He waited until he looked at him to speak to whoever this was. She knew it was Cindersky, but he didn't know she was leader now. "Uh me and Ivythorn got stuck in cages and Wildspark here managed to get us and a bunch of cats out before the two-legs.", he meowed. Cloverpaw knew what cages were. He was a former rogue after all and had his fair share of them. Mostly because of his appearance. To himself he looked like a monster.
Ivythorn smiled slightly as Cindersky approached. Ah, what a pleasing welcome! Flicking her tail, she cast a glance at Wildspark and Cloverpaw. It seemed that she had finally managed to catch up. "Cinds," she mewed delicately. "Well- I wasn't really expecting to see you here." Her voice was a little mocking, but she choked the urge to say more down. If she wanted to get into ThunderClan, she probably shouldn't ask about that former mate of Cindersky's yet. Maybe her sister had actually recovered by now."I think Cloverpaw did the explaining quite well. I believe we should keep an eye out for twolegs in the future." An eyebrow quirked up as she regarded her sibling. "Where's Dawnstar? I don't scent any ShadowClan."
Cinderstar
The joke Wildspark made of StarClan sending him back because they could not handle him caused her whiskers to twitch in amusement. It made sense to her, especially since his behavior at the gathering before last was anything to go off of. He was certainly a personality. "It seems so," she agreed with a small nod.
Her eyes moved to Cloverpaw now who explained a bit about their predicament. It was rather admirable that Wildspark had managed to save several missing ThunderClan cats - and one of them was her sister. "I am glad to see that you are safe, all of you." Blue eyes shifting to Ivythorn she managed a small smile towards her sister. It was not hard to detect the mocking in her voice, and once again Cinderstar was reminded of the wedge between her and her sister. "Dawnstar and ShadowClan have left. I was voted by the Clan to be the next leader, and Sparrowflight was voted to be the Clans' deputy."
She was certain her sister would have a reaction to that, but for now she looked over all three of them. "I will make sure that we send out an extra patrols to keep a look out. For now, how about we all head back to camp?" There would be time later for her and Ivythorn to catch up, but for now they could at least start to head back to camp.
[ all three are done! i will move them out of the missing for timeline continuity, wildspark should not attend this meeting since this rejoining technically takes place after ]

Can I rejoin the clan?" she asked after rushing back. Her heart aced to be be back home and training again. A hopeful smile slid across her face. he would rush back. Opps. Golden;paw thought.
"Cinder'sky... Or should I call you Cinder'star! She said proudly. She gazed around hoping to see Cinder'sky.
Cinderstar
From where she sat in camp, Cinderstar turned her head to spot an apprentice whom she had not seen in camp for quite some time. She opened her mouth to reply when Goldenpaw darted off again. Confusion swept her face and she rose to her paws, only for the apprentice to come sprinting back again. "Are you alright, Goldenpaw?" she asked, slight concern evident in her voice as she regarded the young she-cat with worry. She seemed to be rather all over the place.
cactuspaw jumped at the sudden noise and unsheathed her claws, but for only moment as she saw it was someone she knew. putting her claws away she sighed of relief. "cindersky.. hey." she was glad to see a familiar face after so long. "i was... kidnapped. plucked right off our own territory by twolegs. they put me in a prison and threw me onto different monsters, one after the other." cactuspaw would never be able to shake the feeling of being on the road, it was so nauseating and scary. she would never understand how twolegs used those things. "me and a few other unlucky souls were at a stop when somecat named wildspark freed us, and then i just.. ran back here." cacy's gaze was sad if not scared. she was still a bit shaken up from the experience, she half-expected the twolegs to find her again on her way back, and wanted nothing more than to just be back in her camp.
Cinderstar
Another cat taken by twolegs? Cinderstar made a note then to speak to Sparrowflight about how they should move forward in regards to sweeping the terrritory. She definitely wanted to attempt to rid the forest of these traps that were notorious for capturing cats if they could. "Yes, Wildspark returned a little bit ago. I am glad to see that with him, three more missing cats were rescued." Padding closer and taking into account the nerves that must be firing throughout the young apprentice, Cinderstar bent her head down in an attempt to touch her nose lightly to the top of Cactuspaw's head.
"Come now, let's head back to camp and get you back with your Clanmates. The hunting patrols should have returned as well - I am certain that a fresh mouse will taste better than anything Twolegs fed you," she purred in a chuckle as she flanked the young she-cat and started to walk back, keeping her gait slow to make sure Cactuspaw was following.
[ cactuspaw is done! i will pull her from the missing list! ]

Cinderstar
A pit? That certainly sounded like no fun. Her gaze softened and she attempted to remove some of the mud on top of Litteleap's head with a quick swipe of her tongue. "Make sure to go wash off in the stream, and then come back to perhaps grab some prey. And try to avoid any mud puddles." With that, she nodded towards the she-cat that she was allowed to leave and get the mud off in a stream.

Cindersky, last thing she new about her was that she was a brand new warrior. She was very energetic as well. Smiling she went to meet her. Cinder. she called out.

Cinderstar
Navigating the territory of ThunderClan was something that was becoming soothing to the new leader. It allowed her to settle back into who she was before the Clan had voted her into the leadership position. Cinderstar liked to believe that she hadn't really changed since her ascension to the throne of ThunderClan, and that the throne was not the same one that had been vacant all these moons. She wasn't leading ThunderClan alone; she had Sparrowflight and soon the new council members that would help and advise her as well.
Which is something she would need to start working on soon, she knew. For now, Cinderstar paused to drink in the scents around her - squirrel, undergrowth... outsider?? Her gaze narrowed as part of her name was called out too, turning around to confront whoever it was.
Oh. She had not seen this cat in sometime. Her face softened and she padded to meet her former Clanmate. "Thunderchaser," she greeted, curiosity twitching the tip of her tail, "Where have you been? We have not seen you since last leaf-fall!"
Fallowpaw sighed as he trekked through the territory, shaking dirt from his pelt. His eyelids were heavy from a lack of sleep. He was very well aware of what he had gotten himself into. In search of Muddyrose (he wanted to receive training) he may have gotten a little... sidetracked, to say at the least. However, when he'd entered the outskirts, it seemed that the ground opened up beneath him. Well, not literally. There was a large whole he'd so clumsily fallen into. Hopefully, Cindersky would accept him back into the clan... or whoever was handling rejoinings now. Last time the tom had checked, she and some other warriors were in charge of them - although she'd seemed the most entrusted within the clan. Maybe ThunderClan finally had their leadership settled.
"Cindersky?" Fallowpaw called awkwardly, glancing at his shredded paw. When he fell into the hole, it had been broken. I hate this. What if I won't be considered "normal" anymore? Plus, if he did get accepted back into the clan, he probably wouldn't even have a decent mentor! Muddyrose, at least, understood why he didn't socialize much. Not very many cats were like that.
Cinderstar
Making her way out of camp and into the lush territory of ThunderClan, Cinderstar allowed herself to let out a soft breath and roll her shoulders back. Her wounds from the cove battle were healing, though a thin, subtle scar was rearing its head along her flank. Hopefully soon her fur would grow to cover it.
Ears perked to a voice calling her, Cinderstar turned her head towards the direction of the cat calling it. A young apprentice, Fallowpaw she recognized who had been missing for a brief period of time. He appeared to be hurt - one look at his paw confirmed that. "StarClan, what happened Fallowpaw?" she asked as she hurried over, blue eyes pooling with worry.
As she shifted head as the leader spoke,she couldn’t help but wonder if that was really how long she has been gone. I had no clue I had left for that long! Excuse me,but where’s aspenstar? When I last left she was leader. She looked very confused at the she-cat. Thunder truly couldn’t grasp the concept of being gone for almost 2 moons. There was just no way in her mind. She left her self relax as she waited for a reply from Cinderstar.

"I always aim to win. And my aim is perfect.”
“Me, miss? Not by a long shot.”
The Siamese exhaled sharply in surprise as Cinderstar pulled her up into a hug, and it took a brief moment of assessing whether or not the leader was a mind reader before she wrapped her paws around the new leader and smiled lightly. Yeah, a hug was nice. Just like she knew it would be.
Once the embrace ended, and Cinderstar pulled away, with the foreign new name of hers drifting in the air between them. "I..." Maybe just for the sake of not making things weird (hey, I was there at my ceremony, I was just a ghost, you know) she smiled. While she hadn't seen her mother in StarClan, she had seen Rainypaw. She kind of already knew they were dead... The closure was nice. Now she didn't have to worry, because they were safe now. Safe and happy. "Thank you... It's perfect. I... I'm glad that's the name you chose for me... But would I be going back to Houndpaw now that I'm not... Like, dead anymore? Not that I want to, I just want to check." She hoped not. But maybe the only reason she was made a warrior was for clan morale. That would be priceless, you can only be a warrior if you're dead. she suppressed the urge to smack herself. Her inner voice really thought it was funny sometimes.
Skykit woke up and stretched and walked over to the exit of the nursery and he saw so many cats. Skykit thought about what he would like to be either a warrior or a medicine cat. Skykit walked to his brother Brightkit who was licking himself clean, Skykit asked Brightkit what he would like to become either a warrior or a medicine cat Brightkit said he wanted to become a warrior. What do you want to be? Brightkit asked Skykit. Skykit said he would also like to become a warrior cat.
"Oh, yeah. I got this from some thistle bushes but i'm fine." she concluded, noticeing a look of concern on her leaders face. "I'm fine." she reassured Cinder'star. @marni
Skykit and Brightkit were out in the Thunderclan clearing, they were playing. They had noticed a butterfly flying they started to chase after the butterfly. They chased after the butterfly and went past the nursery, medicine cat den, and the warrior cat den. They finally caught the butterfly but the butterfly escaped. It flew so high that they could not see it.
After all, that playing around Skykit and Brightkit were tired so they did a race first one to the nursery. Brightkit was in the lead but Skykit caught up and won the race. When they arrived at the nursery they went to go have a nap.
She just nodded after he said something back. She really wasn't much of a talker. Stag was lucky just to have just gotten that. Goosepaw couldn't wait to start training though. She had been excited for this since she was a couple moons ago. Of course she never showed it. She was far too afraid for cats to look at her. The newly made apprentice heard some cats call out her name and she lowered herself. Goosepaw really didn't like the attention her and the other new apprentices were getting.
Coming back only to get Barleypaw into warriorhood, but then I most likely will be leaving entirely. I've spend too much time on her to not have her be a warrior and I'd like to get her there.
