Whitestar turned to stare at thunderflight, before nodding.
"Alright... Fine. It's not like he's unwanted anyways, he's
clanborn and he'll always be welcome here. we'll be holding a
naming ceremony for Wolfpaw later, and I'll be naming you as well
if you'd like."
Marble dipped his head as Whitestar padded off.
Whitestar padded to his den immediately to think. So much was
happening now.
Thunderflight glanced at Marble and smiled a bit, "See I told
you.." she purred rubbing her head against his. She backed up and
shook out her fur, "Do you think I should see Firelight..?"
Wolfpaw padded around the camp. She looked around, the camp seemed
quieter than usual. She finally realized what she was doing, she
grabbed a thrush from the fresh kill pile and headed to the elders
den. "MoonPelt?"
MoonPelt looked up. "Have you brought me a snack?" He gave out a
rough purr.
"I wanted to do my final job as a apprentice." She smiled and gave
the thrush to Moonpelt. "I will see you later!"
Firelight ceases the paw licking to smile. "That was thoughtful of
you Wolfpaw! I'm looking forward to your ceremony!"
Marble's nose twitches a little. "Well I think it would be best to,
just to let him know there may be more kits in the clan. I don't
know how herbs work but maybe theres something he'll give you to
help out with it?" he shrugged a little. "At least tell him about
the kits"
"Thank you! Its been a while, but I'm pretty sure that I was given
two extra moons to train myself, that's how I always thought of
it!" She smiled kindly.
Fern stormed into the warriors den, the silliest look on her face,
a mix of happiness and annoyance. "Marble you jerk!" She yelled,
stomping over to his side and shoving her face into his side,
easily toppling him. "Why didn't you tell me you were visiting? I
would've made you a 'welcome back' present!" She laughed, joyfully
laying over his side in a sisterly way.
Marble yelped before laughing, and swatting playfully at ferntail.
"Come on ya big lump there's plenty of time for that, I'm coming to
stay!" he purred, crouching down playfully. "Switchfire doesn't
know, and I think my ceremony will be later on~"
ThunderFlight snorted at Ferntail's playfulness. She turned and
walked out of the warriors den flicking her tail as she made her
way over towards the medicine den hoping to see Firelight.
Fern gave a loud and overly dramatic gasp before bursting out in
laughter. "Well it's great tht you're gonna stay, now I won't have
to scout out whenever you're visiting all the time!" She chirped,
playfully nudging Marble. "Oh hey, we've also had some new
additions to camp since you've last visited. Have you met Kauri
yet? She's currently out gathering herbs and stuff I believe, but
she's such a little sweetie." Fern said. She stood up, an idea
coming to mind. "Hey, we should go pester your sister! She'll be so
surprised to see you're here to stay!"
(I'm assuming Switchfire is all competitive towards Fern but Fern
views her as a close friend and is completely oblivious to her
competitiveness XP)
By the time thunderflight made it to the medicine cat den,
Firelight was busy storing away extra herbs. He flicks his ears as
he heard her approaching.
"I'd love to see Switchfire, is she around?" he purred, laughing a
little as Switchfire padded into camp right on cue.
Thunderflight stepped in a bit, "Firelight?" She looked around and
noticed him. "Sorry to be a disruption to your duties, but I need
to ask you something." She twitched her whiskers.
She sat down uncomfortably, "I'm pretty sure I'm expecting kits,
but I want to make sure with you. You're probably more of an expert
on these types of things.." She laughed a bit at her own sentence
before making a small frown.
Firelight leaped to his feet. "With who? When did it happen?
Details details!" he meowed excitedly. "I can only tell if it
happened much earlier than today, but if it did happen today I cant
really tell"
Thunderflight looked surprised at his response and laughed a little
bit, "With Marble, I don't think you've met him yet, but he used to
be Orangekit.." She twitched her tail a bit and continued, "Well it
actually happened earlier."
"Ah, right, I've heard about him." He paused. "Well in that case we
cant tell if you're a queen or not yet, but come back if you feel
any different, i'll be able to be more helpful then"
Wolfpaw padded out, head high. She leapt out of camp, she decided
to try and hunt some more before her ceremony. "I swear I was
forgetting something..."
Briarsting flicked his gaze over the two smaller cats before him.
He thought for a moment, reviewing his options. "What are your
names? I should need to know them if you will be showing me through
your camp. I will reside in your camp until I establish that
Ivycreek is not in the area. If you have any qualms with this, I'm
sure I could speak to your leader about settling everything." He
said cooly, his face near expressionless.
Kauri shivered a bit, biting her bottom lip before taking a shaky
step forwards. "I-I'm K-Kauri, a-and th-this is W-Weaselm-mask."
The small apprentice stuttered nervously. "W-Weaselmask, wh-what do
y-you think? Sh-should we b-bring him to Wh-whites-star?" If Kauri
had boots, right now she'd be shaking in them. She had never seen
such a large cat before, and his calmness was certainly off-putting
to her. Then again, she wasn't a really social cat anyways, mainly
sticking to people she knew and enjoyed being in the presence of.
Her tail flicked nervously between her ankles as she waited for
Weaselmask's decision.
