RiverClan Clearing

softpaw gazed up at her leader with a determind smile and nodded, she turned to her new mentor with a scoff and a smirk, "and greetings to you thunderface, I can assure you I will be anything but disappointing." she assured the warrior with a small head nod, thats what i'm talking about, this should speed up my training! softpaw's vibrant red eyes shown with pride and determination, she wanted to become a warrior as early as she could!

softpaw purred a bit, "I really want to learn how to fish!" she exclaimed, softpaw started trotting toward the entrance, "oh wait, rats! the river is to dangerous!" she huffed and sat down thinking for a second, "Is there anywhere else to fish?" she asked with a small head tilt.

Foxpaw turned and quickly batted the attack away. "It's getting late, let's go check you in, I've been meaning to say hi to Sugarapple for a while anyways." Foxpaw said yawning

"Okay" Dogkit turned in the direction of the nursery. He paused for a few moments. "Will you teach me how to hunt tomorrow?" He asked Foxpaw.

Ivyshine nodded. “I’m not in much state to fight, after my long journey, but I’m going to try.” She sighed, but determination made her dark green eyes brighten and spark. She looked awkwardly at the other cat with a curious flick of her dappled tail. “It’s been a little while since I been here...” She began apologetically. “Do you mind if I ask for your name? I’m Ivyshine.” She blinked warmly at them, trying not to scare them or make a fool out of herself. She just got here and had no intention of making enemies any time soon.

Well, being on guard sure was boring!

Firehawk flicked his tail as he pawed at a small stone on the ground, looking around the fairly quiet camp. "What do you say," he looked over at Bumblebelly, "we round up some of the apprentice kittos and see if they want to go over some defensive training? I doubt much'll happen while the battle's raging."

Quietly, he was concerned about the well-being of his sons but knew it was best to not stew on it-- he couldn't do anything for them here.

"Alrighty!" Featherpaw trotted into the den, checking that Badgerpaw was following.

"If you weren't going into battle like the brave warrior you are, I'd pin you down and mess up all your fur!" Bumblebelly teased, returning the boop with his large paw.

Swanfeather giggled, which only heightened in pitch as Bumblebelly booped him on return. "Maybe I'll hafta stick some good ol' tree sap in ya fur, make it stick up in ev'ry direction!" he joked, tail lashing back and forth with joy. His pelt was on fire and his stomach was twisting, but he didn't place the reasoning. Bumblebelly was such a silly tom, it was adorable!

A little twinge of nerves tweaked his chest, but he shoved it down. Lionstar obviously trusted him so why worry? Creekrunner had never spoken to Weaselpaw before, but he knew what she looked like and was able to find her in the crowd, trotting over to her with a flick of his tail. “Hi, Weaselpaw,” he chirped in a friendly tone, touching his nose to hers, “I’m Creekrunner.” The tom walked out of the center of the gathered cats, flicking his tail for Weaselpaw to follow, and sat down to listen to the rest of the announcements. The mention of Shadowclan sent shocks of anticipation through him- he was ready to show those crowfood eaters what happened when they acted on pride. Turning to Weaselpaw at the end of Lionstar’s words, Creekrunner said, “I don’t know how far you got in your training with your last mentor, so you’re gonna have to tell me if you’ve had any battle training.” The silver warrior figured that if the apprentice answered with a yes, he could take her to the training island for a quick brush-up and to test that she actually could hold her own in a battle. If she said no, well, maybe he had enough time to give her a basic lesson. He wouldn’t take her to the battle, but he could give her a foundation to use in helping to protect the camp while the bulk of Riverclan’s warriors were away.

Weaselpaw looked up as Creekrunner approached, offering a lopsided smile in greeting. As their noses touched, she closed her eyes, ears perking to listen to the tom's words. "Hello, Creekrunner. I'm looking forward to be training with you!" she said in response, her eyes glittering with her masked excitement. Her tail twitched and she frowned at his next words. "I don't have any training, Puddlestep never took me out for it. I haven't even seen the territory yet!" She gave a huff at the fact, ears coming to flatten against her head. Puddlestep had seemed to be a good mentor, but they hadn't ever taken her anywhere. They even seemed to have disappeared after that meeting! Weaselpaw sighed and looked toward Creekrunner hopefully, wondering if he would take her to see the territory today.

Bumblebelly had been appreciating the silence of the camp, well as silent as it had gotten during his time there. His eyes were shut but ears quirked towards the older warrior.
Bumblebelly opened a single green eye, raising his brow slowly at the suggestion.
"That's not a bad idea," He murmured slowly, letting out a relaxed sigh. "It'd do them some good! Round them up then? Cant say I know half their names yet," Bumblebelly chuckled easily.

Creekrunner offered a lopsided grin at Weaselpaw’s enthusiasm and chuckled, “I’m looking forward to training with you too!” The charming warrior tended to feed off of the energy of those he was talking to, and the friendly vibe he got from Weaselpaw was echoed in his own tone. Some might call him immature, but he simply liked making other cats smile. Thus, when Weaselpaw confided that she hadn’t even seen the territory yet, Creekrunner gasped dramatically. Putting a paw to his heart in a dramatic show of surprise, Creekrunner moved into a crouch so he was at eye level with his apprentice and exclaimed, “not even the territory? Well we gotta fix that right away, kid! This is dire! C’mon!” With that, Creekrunner leapt up and dashed to the entrance, checking momentarily to see if Weaselpaw was following before ducking through the entrance into the territory. He had plenty of time to show her the territory before the raid and there was no way he was letting this kid go another day without seeing the territory. What had her previous mentor been thinking?

@BILL.
Ace dropped to his haunches beside the entrance to what he supposed was the clan’s home. What was it that Lilytail had called it? A camp? The brown tom shrugged and went about observing the cats killing about. He figured that Lionstar would find him, so he didn’t bother asking about him. If he was the head of a group of cats and a stranger showed up in his camp, he’d sure as heck find that cat as soon as possible and find out what he was doing there. Thus, the loner contented himself with lazily grooming down some of the wayward hairs on his chest and watching the activities of the Riverclan cats.
