WindClan: Life Before 2023's Fire

[Pancake]

Oddeyes stretched in her nest, her miscolored eyes searching the darkness of the den as she shook clinging scraps of moss off of her thick pelt. "Is it just me, or is there a draft coming in through the wall again?" Being the oldest of the elders, she always felt some kind of draft, whether it was real or not, and most of the time it paid to check. She sat down and started to groom her spiky pelt.

Puddlekit thought for a minute. He hadn't exactly met a whole lot of the warriors yet. So far, the adult cats he had properly met were Twilightstar, Brindlejaw, Coyotesnarl, Coldsong, Paleheart, and Jaggedstone. But most of them weren't exactly viable options. "I think I'd want Paleheart to be my mentor. She seems nice and she has a personality a lot like mine." He smiled at Heatherkit. "Who do you want yours to be?"

Oddeyes stretched and exited the den, then poked her head back in to say, "I'm going to the nursery to see if anyone needs a story."

Heatherkit thought for a moment. "Well, I haven't really properly met a lot of warriors...But I think that Brindlejaw would be a good mentor..." He glanced at the other kits, wondering who their mentor would be. "Puddlekit? What if you become an apprentice before me. I know your older than me..." He shuffled his feet, staring at the ground.

Oddeyes, the oldest elder who had been in the clan for more than 35 moons, trotted in smoothly despite her age. She looked around the den with her miscolored eyes. "Anyone in here itchin' for a story?"She smiled and her eyes lit up at the idea of telling the next generation the tales of the past. "I bet I can think up a good one! You younguns' just gather round here and I'll get right to tellin'!"

@wolfnight (Puddle's good to go on May 6th, so let's hope they both make it in the same batch)

Puddlekit frowned. "That would be kinda upsetting. But..." he paused, thinking of something to reassure his friend. "I'm not a whole lot older than you. Hopefully the next clan meeting won't be until we're both ready. Besides, if we ended up apprentices at different times, I'd definitely try to come back here and visit as much as possible. But let's just hope it doesn't happen like that in the first place." He purred reassuringly, praying that Twilightstar wouldn't call another meeting until they were all ready.

[Polaris]

@Puddletail (Yeah, I hope they are!)

Heatherkit turned to his friend, his green eyes bright. He smile, feeling much better. "Thanks Puddlekit." He paused before saying,"You're a great friend." He quickly looked back at the ground, not sure how Puddlekit would respond. Heatherkit didn't normally share his feelings, so this was rare.

@wolfnight

"Aww, thanks. You're a great friend too, Heatherkit." Puddlekit purred and smiled, happy to have a friend who he could converse a little more seriously with. The other kits were good friends too, but they mostly just wanted to play non-stop. It was nice to be able to just chat and think about the future for a little while.

Emberkit looked around, struggling to try to walk around, almost immediately in every case falling face first against the ground. He tried to make his way to the elder, wanting to hear a story @Pouncepaw

She chuckled sarcastically as if it was a 'good' thing she was gonna annoy the queen more. "When are you going to have your kits?" She looked curiously at her swollen belly.

"Maybe today?" SoftFeather replied, "I mean, I hope today." she corrected herself 'it could be in half a moon!' she thought to herself as she began licking her chest fur with soft, gentle licks as if she was practicing grooming her kits.
