Forum-Index → Roleplay → DesertClan (Roleplay)Dawnpelt flicked an ear as Flamestar spoke and walked into the leaders den. “ Good morning, “ She mewed. “ How are you fairing today?,” she asked, sitting down and wrapping her tail neatly around her paws.
Duskwind padded thought he forest, his paws brushing through the dried leaves that covered the forest floor. The air smelled crisp, with a light breeze blowing through the trees. Soon, the trees began to thin and the ground turned from dirt to rock, as they neared the desert area. Duskwind paused at the twisted trees that stood at the border and marked the boundary. “ Our camp used to be down over there,” he pointed out to Hawkpool. “ since we moved, we don’t use this territory as much now, “ he mewed.
"I'm doing fine" Flamestar meowed kindly,mand finished his prey. "How are you" he asked kindly, and stretched.
Hawkpool nodded and looked at the cave in the distance. "Certainly looks safe" she meowed gently, but didn't ask why the clan moved.
Duskwind flicked his tail, “ It was nice. But the river floods spontaneously, doesn’t make for a good permanent home,” he mewed. Duskwind took one last look before standing, “ Might as well keep going,” he meowed, signaling for the others to follow him through the sandy area.
Hawkpool nodded, and bounded after Duskwind. She was looking back at the river, and the cave. The warrior looked,over to Stonetail, and Shadepelt. The two Warriors were following closely.
Tigerstripe finished reapplying marigold, and cobwebs to Ashpelt's fur. She then took a step back, and yawned. "If you don't leave camp, or do any work you can leave the medicine den. If I catch you doing anything, even play fighting with your kits, I'll confide you to the medicine den for a moon" she meowed kindly. Ashpelt nodded, and got to his paws. The memories of the nightmare seemed to cause the calming environment of the medicine den to feel like hostile environment. He sat in the sunlight and yawned.
Duskwind moved swiftly over the rocky ground, his paws missing the feel of the sandy terrain. They reached the river , and he paused to mark the border. “ Well follow this back into the forest, and that will bring us to the moutainous area, by turtle rock. “ he mewed to Hawkpool. “ you’ll get a glimpse of Home,” he chirped.
Flamestar nodded, and yawned "nicely done. I think I'll join the dusk patrol later tonight, we don't you get some rest for now, and help with repairing the camp, or go visit your kits. I'll handle organizing patrols for today" he meowed kindly.
Dawnpelt nodded, “ Sounds good to me,” She mewed. “ I’m going to the nursery, the wall was hit the hardest there,” she explained. She paused before leaving. “ Flamestar, why do you think they tried to take our kits?” She asked.
Flamestar thought for a moment, and tipped his head to the side. "Maybe they wanted to take cats they could train into rogue fighters" he suggested darkly.
“Perbaps,” Dawnpelt mewed. She was quiet for a moment, looking out of the leaders den to the camp. Her tail tip thumped the ground lightly as she thought. “ I’m disturbed by that thought,” she said. “ But I suppose their motives aren’t that important - we simply need to be ready next time they come,”
Flamestar looked out of the cave and sighed. "We will beat them next time" he mewled gently. "Don't worry about the rogues taking your kits, I'll post more warriors to guard the camp and the nursery"
Not to worry would be foolish, Dawnwind thought to herself, but decided against voicing this opinion. She nodded and got to her paws, “ May Starclan watch over us as well, “ she mewed before taking her leave. She padded away down the tall rock, in a somewhat darker mood. She paused to watch the camp, seeing cats moving to and fro, repairing the damage from the battle. If I feel this way, I can only imagine how the kits feel..., she thought, heading towards the nursery.
Flamestar nodded and watched as Dawnpelt left the den. He got to his paws and walked outside as well. StarClan please watch over us as we regain our strength in order to take down these rogues... he thought darky.
Ashpelt sat near the medicine den. He looked over to the leader's den as Dawnpelt walked out of the den. He nodded a greeting, and went over to the stream next to the medicine den.
Bramblekit heard pawsteps outside the den heading towards the nursery. He drew his ears back in slight fear, and looked at the entrance.
Duskwind moved briskly through this part of the territory, enjoying the small hills and dips in the land. Before long, they had reached another border marker - a long, short evergreen that stood between the mountains and the forest. Duskwind paused to bark the boundary and turned to speak to the Hawkpool, " This next stretch of our territory goes near the two leg place, so keep an ear out for their kits or their dogs, " he mewed. Or the rogues, he added in his head.
Hawkpool nodded and parted her jaws. The scent of dog, and twoleg were strong but here was the faint scent from the fight the night before.
Duskwind had also scented the remains of the night's battle, but didn't sense any immediate threat. " We'll need to stay alert in this area, even if it seems quiet at the moment " he mewed, padding forward. The line of trees along this border was unnaturally straight, as the two legs had cut down most of the trees in their territory. Duskwind stayed in the treeline, padding through the bushes softly.
