RiverClan Clearing - Page 889

Lotuspaw sat alone in the clearing. She was an apprentice now. It still felt lonely though. She was younger but also physically bigger than the others. She had responsibilities but her mentor wasn't here yet. Should she talk to someone else.

"Very well, Swanfeather, you're dismissed If you do happen to see Cloverwish around any time soon, send her my way please." meowed Sootflare. He was a bit annoyed the tom couldn't have waited just a moment for the deputy to acknowledge him but it wasn't too big of a deal. The patrol had been completed and he reported back - that was much more than he could say for a lot of cats.

Nighttuft's sudden appearance in the clearing was startling and Sootflare's fur bristled for a moment before realizing it was a familiar face that approached him. Captured by twolegs, huh? She didn't smell like it but it was a long enough travel from the Twolegplace to RiverClan that he brushed it off.

"Yes, Nighttuft, that seems to be the story more often than not recently. You were a queen before you disappeared, correct? What were you doing out in the territory?" It wasn't as if queens were banned from leaving camp for a stroll or even hunting if they so pleased but it wasn't often that they did - they were typically more focused on taking care of the kittens or taking a nap whenever they got a quiet moment. Hearing an explanation would help to determine if she was telling the truth.

Snowstripe smiled at Doefeather. "Yes I'm ready." She said smiling.

"I was bored inside the nursery with all the kits running around, so I decided to take a quick stroll around the territory. But then the twoleg suddenly came and grabbed me." Nighttuft meowed.

"Hello to anyone that's willing to listen! My apprentice is stuck in the first right tunnel of Lionstunnel, and I can't get him out on my own!" She yowled this so the camp could hear her. She was panicking more and more. That was her apprentice, her first apprentice. She promised herself to not let anything bad happen to him...

He nodded along as she talked. That was fair enough - he certainly couldn't speak from experience but he could imagine being stuck in the den all the time would get rather dull.

"Right, well, were you intending to return to the nursery as queen or return to warrior duties?"

Goosepaw's head shot up, and almost immediately he had darted over to the warrior's side. There was no way he was going to ignore such a blatant cry for help. "I'll help you get him out," he grunted. "Who is he? Where is he at?"

She breathed in before speaking again.
"It-it's Sootpaw. He-he's my first apprentice, and I haven't gone into the lately... I thought we would enjoy ourselves, but he got stuck in the tunnel..." She was close to tears at this point. Why did it happen now? Is he ok? What'll happen afterwards? She didn't know at this point, only listening and trying to keep back the tears.

His eyes widened and he jerked back. "Sootpaw? Then what are we waiting for, come on, lead me to him!" He ran to the camp's entrance, paused, ad glanced back at the warrior. "I don't know the way - you'll have to lead me there."

"I'll lead you to him, then!" She meowed with determination. She would get him out, she was sure of it! She dashed to the entrance and nodded to Goosepaw, setting off to help him out.
