Every moment, from talking to Briarbranch in the camp, to the other she-cat helping her and giving her encouragement to help her get over her nervousness and climb the tree, to sitting closely on a branch. She remembered stealing glances at Briarbranch as they watched that sunset, and how her pelt always seemed to be warmer with her around, and how magnificent her eyes had looked in the lighting of the golden light cast by the descending sun.
"Briarbranch!" She exclaimed, hurrying over to her; once she reached the other cat, her pelt heated even more at her outburst. "I-It's been too long. I haven't seen you in quite awhile," she quickly put in.

The large tabby smiled as the shecat made he way to her,and Briar couldn't help but give the other cat a nuzzle against her cheek. She pulled away quickly,hoping the other didn't react in a negative way to her touch. She could feel her pelt get warm herself just by hearing the others soft voice again,so sweet,sweet to her ears that she could listen to it all day. "It has..I'm sorry for not catching up with you sooner..I'm so sorry." her voice was quiet, she felt bad. With the Evil Era that had happened she had been extremely busy with warrior duties,but she would admit the white molly did cross her mind most days. But now that the Era was over, she had time.

The nuzzle to her cheek set her pelt completely ablaze, but she smiled timidly and hesitantly returned the gesture. "No, no, don't be sorry," she instantly replied, "it's not your fault. This past while has just been so chaotic, I doubt anyone had time for catching up. I'm just glad those bad times are over, and we can catch up again. She didn't want the larger she-cat to feel bad, especially over her. She was sure the tabby had had better, more important things to do during the Era than having a casual conversation with a cat, let alone Cloudedsky. She was glad the Evil Era was over. She certainly did miss talking to Briarbranch.

But if he goes against any cat in the dark forest, he'll have some dying words to give. She thought, she wasn't really that emotionless, but had no empathy for others, she pretended to be happy or sad, one would never know what she's actually feeling, or really thinking, unless you were her yourself. It's alright, but next time think before you speak." Mossdrop told him, an annoyed glint in her eye as she looked right at him. I'd of killed him on spot, but theirs no time for bloodshed in the middle of camp, to an apprentice no less. But, he needs to hold his tonque, unless he wants a little wound on his little shoulder...hmm.
"A good choice you have made." She mused, eyes gleaming as she gave another question in the mix, she was satisfied with their answer. "You do not believe in Starclan..yes?" She gave a nod, she knew this fair and well, so there was no need for him to answer. "Well, they are just pathetic myths, just as you have told yourself, they are not real, just something made up, a story, nothing more.." Needed to give this young apprentice some truth in the lives, they need for their training. "Now...for my proposal." She didn't move an inch while telling this, standing still, telling him this. No cat was around at this time, some were out training, or patrol, and others were in their dens, sleeping. A perfect opportunity had been spotted when she saw Jaypaw, a perfect candidate, a perfect moment, and she was gonna take it. "I am able to give you a chance of your lifetime, to train with the best of the best, and become the great warrior you will be, in time." She paused, eyes gleaming as she stared right into the eyes. "Do you agree?"

The silver apprentice narrowed his eyes upon the older mollys statement, it was true he didn't really believe that Starclan existed, it was never proven,a sniff it was, he never saw it, he only thought that it was a reason to cause bloodshed, a reason to kill those they despise, an excuse. He nodded his head in agreement, he drank in the Warriors words, taking every single syllable to heart, every vowel, every consonant, and buried them deep within his soul, to him, it seemed as though someone had finally shed some light within his dark heart, at she did, but at Thebes same time, though he didn't know it, the molly was plauging his soul. His blue hues danced with excitement and uncertainty when she began to state her..."proposal" he felt nauseous, terrified, like something darker, more...evil lurked behind Mossdrops words, but at the sameness time he was joyous, thrilled, determined, he wanted to change his fate, he didn't want to be a slave to these....Starclan supporters much longer, he wanted to make his own path, his own way.
Jaypaw close his eyes and thought about her proposal once she finished, he didn't just want to shout yes, get his troubles over with in only a few seconds, no, nothing wasn't ever that simple, life was never that simple, he had to think deeply about every word that slipped out of the brown tabbys mouth, make sure she didnt have alterior motives behind training him, he only had one more moon before he would become a full warrior, he had to look at each and every one of his options very closely. "Who exactly will be training me, because by the sounds of it....it won't be you. Why should I train behind my mentors back, he's never done anything to deserve that." he stated calmly, his blue he's seemed to get colder, they seemed to become as bright, as light, as cold, as ice its self, he didn't believe in Starclan, but he also didn't believe in disloyalty, and if he was being bribed into taking the wrong path, the disloyal, sly, dishonest path, he would rather die loyal, honest, true, as well as stupid if needed, he promised Ashstar that he would Ben true to his clan, and he never breaks his promises. "Why should I listen to you?" he questioned, his voice low, cold, and dripped with venom, he was a sweet cat, untill you rubbed his fur the wrong way.

"I'm glad I can catch up with you too. Im glad the past is in the past." She mewed truthfully. She couldn't help but giving a soft purr when she had returned the gesture. She was glad the Era was over, she was glad the evil and unloyal cats were now gone and the clans were rebuilding. She was happy Cloud was okay during all of it aswel,"I'm glad you're okay and everything,a lot of cats were left with some pretty nasty scars." she mewed but it seemed that she molly,atleast within her gaze, her fur still looked like it was as pure as snow and unscared.

Cloudedsky nodded. "Me too," she replied, "That part of the past is certainly something I wouldn't mind forgetting." She smiled a bit sadly in response to the she-cat's last statement, turning a bit and exposing her left shoulder, which had been covered by the angle at which she stood in front of Brairbranch. "I mean.... There is one on my shoulder if you lifted the fur, but since my fur is oretty long, it covers it up mostly," she replied, her green gaze cast on the location of the scar. She looked back up at Briarbranch. "And yeah, I have some others, but they aren't really noticeable, even if you lifted the fur. And there aren't very many. I tried to avoid fights, really, but I couldn't not fight at all. There were cats during the time that'd fight nearly anything that moved."

her gaze sadden at the scars that were placed on the light mollys body. She wished she could wisk them away in a heartbeat,and personally fight the cats that left them. "I'm sorry for have some,you still look great." she said without thinking,feeling her face heat up a bit at the words but she did mean them. Her silky pelt covered the scars to be nonexsitant for eyes to see. She didn't have many on herself seeing as with her big size she won most of her fights.

(Wait have you signed up for a ceremony because I don't think you can officially make HarmonyBlade your mentor without permission from the leader. It may take a while...)
HarmonyBlade came out of the nursery looking straight forward. He eventually met the eyes of Cherrypaw. "Coming?" He twitched his ears and waved his tail patiently

The mostly white she-cat smiled a little in response, her ears warming up. "Th-Thanks," she stuttered with a small shrug, befire turning her attention over to the other she-cats marks of battle. "You don't seem to have many," she remarked, "You must be strong and won a lot, huh?" She nudged Briarbranch good-naturedly, giving a small laugh.

While she didn't have as many as the other,she still had a few scars herself. The biggest one raked from her chest all the way down her underbelly,but her long fur had covered it up pretty well. With maybe a nick in the ear here and there. She shrugged and smiled,"My big size comes in handy sometimes you could say." she chuckled. Her sized usually scared other cats as it was,so she was glad it finally came in handy for something for once.
