Over the gorge came the broad-shouldered orange tabby medicine cat, elegantly walking towards her home of SerenityClan. After her journey with StarClan in the Moonshard, Runningcloud felt as if a weight had been lifted off of her shoulders. Sagepaw, Butterflypaw, and Howlingwind seemed to give her new strength, knowledge, and wisdom. Her old injury of the blind eye had faded though the scar remained.
"Look, Mouseclaw, Brindletalon, home!" Runningcloud called to the young toms behind her. She smiled grandmotherly and broke into a loping run towards the SerenityClan camp. "Jasminestar? Pastelsky? Clearpool? Emberpaw?" It felt odd calling the name of a cat who had taken the place she had gained merely three days ago and recinded it the day before. But StarClan had sent her a vision to become the new medicine cat of her Clan. She turned to Mouseclaw and Brindletalon. "Thank you, young warriors," she said quietly, dipping her head. She looked around for Jasminestar and Emberpaw. She would have to ask if her apprentice would go to Clearpool or become the medicine cat apprentice Morninghawk never had.

Mouseclaw grinned and pelted into camp after Runningcloud. "You're welcome, Runningcloud." He said absently. He was already absorbed in his search. His crystalline green eyes grazed the camp searchingly for the slender tabby she-cat who he loved so much. "Pastelsky?" He barely heard his own voice echo hollowly in his head.OOC: *singsong* Da DA dah dah dah DUAH DUAH DAAAAAHH... *slow motion shot of Mouseclaw running in field of daisies toward Pastelsky, who is also running toward him...*

((*dying in laughter* Sorry, Black, I made the thread after I read your post >.< Oh, and when should I post Timberkit's bio?))
Runningcloud looked around for Pastelsky as well. "She might be in my den, helping the sick," she said. Yet another thing that meant awkwardness. My den, not the medicine cat's den. Runningcloud sighed and her shoulders slumped. "I'll definately talk to Jasminestar," she whispered to herself.

A dazed Jasminestar streaked out of the leader's den. Seeing Runningcloud, she braked at the feet of the new medicine cat. She seemed unruffled by her sudden entrance. Runningcloud, welcome back! Her face wrinkled into worry at what Runningcloud's response might be. Are you...a medicine cat now? [/blockquote] |

Mouseclaw nodded and pushed into the medicine cat's den anxiously...
((After I post in the Mates board...I'll PM u and lonely when its time to post the bios, don't worry. XDD))

Runningcloud dipped her head. "I was accepted among the ranks of StarClan. They welcomed me as their late sister," she said softly and then looked up at Jasminestar. "I was wondering, Jasminestar. Would Emberpaw still be my apprentice, if I were to ask her if she wished to be in medicine. If not, could Clearpool be her mentor?" The new medicine cat sat by Jasminestar's side pensively. There seemed to be a new air of serenity around both of them for some reason.

ooc; Okey-dokey, can't wait to RP Freekit!
bic; Jasminestar sat down. She considered Runningcloud's request for a moment. Then, she shook her head. No, you are much too new a medicine cat to take on an apprentice already. Clearpool can take charge of her training, I'm sure it'll be alright. [/blockquote] |

~Brindletalon~
Brindletalon smiled and dipped his head to Runningcloud before racing to catch up with Mouseclaw. "I'll help you look for her and we can go and check on Octoberlies as well" he said to his friend and walked into the den with him.
~Clearpool~
Clearpool glanced up from the mouse she was eating when she heard Jasminestar mention her name. She stood up and padded over to her leader and medicine cat. "Jasminestar? Did you want something?" she asked softly, smiling at Runningcloud shyly. She was quite excited about her new role as deputy but nervous too. She would be a much quieter deputy than Runningcloud, she hoped everyone would be ok with that. [/center][/color] |

Jasminestar turned to Clearpool as she approached. Ah, Clearpool, I was just going to call you! Emberpaw was supposed to be Runningcloud's apprentice, but now that she's a medicine cat, she'll need a new mentor. Would you mind, becoming Emberpaw's mentor? She gave Clearpool a comforting smile. She could feel her tension, but she wanted to help her out. [/blockquote] |

Clearpool nodded and smiled back at Jasminestar. "I would love to, I just hope she isnt disappointed after having such a good mentor before me" she said, grinning at Runningcloud. She flicked her long-haired white tail absent-mindedly. She felt comfortable with these two cats, so that was fine. She was sure that being a deputy would be a good experiene and Clearpool was happy.

Jasminestar shrugged. She wouldn't know. Well, they haven't even gotten to train yet, She reminded Clearpool. Looking around, she asked, Where is Emberpaw anyway? I need to speak to her about this. [/blockquote] |

Clearpool nodded and looked around for Emberpaw. "She might be in Runningclouds den, i believe she was injured during the battle with Chaosfire" she told Jasminestar, flicking her snowy white tail to the medicine cat den. She glanced back towards Jasminestar. "Would you like me to go and fetch her? Or should we go to her, I'm not sure what kind of injury she sustained" she said, looking at Runningcloud to see if she knew what had happened to Emberpaw. [/center][/color] |

"I understand," the medicine cat said to Jasminestar, nodding.
Runningcloud smiled at Clearpool's compliment and then tilted her head at Jasminestar's question. "She took a claw to the chest in the battle trying to defend Morninghawk, but it wasn't serious. She could be just resting in my den," she told both she-cats, shrugging broad shoulders. She dipped her head to the two again. "Please excuse me for the moment. I would like to oversee my patients before getting some rest..." Runningcloud smiled wanly, purring in happiness.
((~Night.Sight~'s been unable to get on a computer lately. We'll just say Emberpaw's sleeping to recover))

ooc; Lonely and Aurora are playing Timberkit and Freekit? Yay, two great RPers! Oh, and Lonely, I know this is a bit random (but aren't we all....), but how do you do that... thing where your post is kinda off to the side but not centered? xD
Pastelsky ran towards Mouseclaw in slow-motion looked up at the sound of Mouseclaw's voice. She had sat beside Octoberlies all night, listening to his breathing and muttering 'Butterflypaw'. She gently stood, her limbs stiff. Gingerly, she padded over to Mouseclaw and twined his tail with hers, smiling at him. "How did it go?" she asked quietly, still oddly uncomfortable around him.

Brindletalon smiled when he saw Pastelsky. He nudged Mouseclaw as if to say I told you she would be fine and then looked at the two cats in turn. "Well, I think I'll go and see Octoberlies" he said and padded over to his friend, knowing that Mouseclaw would want to be alone with Pastelsky for a while. He touched his nose to Pastelskys cheek as he passed and then he lay down beside Octoberlies. He wished his friend would wake up. [/center][/color] |

ooc;Do you mean like this, Kuri?
bic; Jasminestar nodded to Clearpool and Runningcloud. I'll speak to Emberpaw later, then, when she feels a little better.
She slowly stood up, yawning. I think most everything is sorted out. I should go back to my den. If anyone has any questions, come to me.
She nodded to Runnningcloud before retreating to her den to rest.

Clearpool dipped her head to Firestar and Runningcloud and wandered over to the fresh kill pile. She chose a small mouse and lay down to eat. She looked around the clearing. I wonder if anyone would like to go hunting she thought to herself. The kill pile needed topping up. She couldnt see anyone around so she decided to finish her mouse and then look for someone who might want to go hunting. [/center][/color] |

Octoberlies stirred at his friend's touch. Opening his eyes, he peered around. His surroundgins appeared misty, as though haze swathed it. The grey tabby blinked, then opened his eyes again. The mist had lifted. He looked at Brindletalon for a moment, confused, then smiled faintly as he recognized his friend. "Brindletalon..." he murmured. He pulled himself up, then collapsed again, the pain from his sore stomach blinding him. |

Runningcloud appeared by Octoberlies' side. "My faithful friend, here," she said quietly, nudging a leaf of thyme and marigold towards the tom. "Eat these." The medicine cat smiled weakly and licked Octoberlies' ear. "Just rest. If you need me to help stretch your legs, tell Brindletalon." The large orange tabby slipped away, gently tending to the others.

Mouseclaw nuzzled her. "Fine. " He meowed. There wasn't much he could say- he was just happy to be near her again. His gray tail was twined with her brown tabby one, and he felt a wave of warmth envelop him. Despite how tired and thirsty he was, he could stay like this forever- at least, before he sensed how uncomfortable Pastelsky was. He pressed against her gentle and pulled his head away, observing her carefully. "I love you, Pastelsky." [/sub]

Brindletalon jumped as Octoberlies awoke. "Octoberlies! Thank Starclan!" he breathed nuzzling his friend affectionately. He smiled and dipped his head before turning back to his friend. "Eh...Octoberlies....Who was.....Who was Butterflypaw?" he whispered to the tom, looking around to be sure that nobody else had heard them. "Its just, you kept saying that name whilst you were unconcious" he continued, looking at Octoberlies with interest. [/center][/color] |

Octoberlies smiled painfully up at Runningcloud. "Thankyou." He looked at Brindletalon again, starting at his question. Oh no... He knew he should tell his best friend the truth about Butterflypaw, but he just couldn't face it. "She was... my sister," he invented quickly.
Cherrysmoke lay in the centre of camp, her body hunched in the traditional pose of mourning, though no limp body lay at her nose. She was mourning for Moonkit, her beloved son, who had disappeared during the battle. She could only conclude that her son had been slaughtered and his body hidden. She clenched her jaw as a wave of pain engulfed her; it had nothing to do with the many cuts and bites on her flanks. First Willowpaw, then Crescentgaze, now Moonkit... |

Foxtail padded through the entrance to camp a while after Runningcloud had got back. Her jaws were filled with still warm prey, and she took these to the fresh kill pile and deposited them. Then she padded through the middle of the chattering cats, all catching up after the battle and the business with Runningcloud and Morninghawk. Unfortunately, she hadn't seen Deathwish during or after the battle, and was getting worried. She looked around, then spotted Cherrysmoke hunched in mourning. From what she could tell, there was no body at her nose. Foxtail gasped as she scanned the clearing and Moonkit did not meet her eye. She decided to go and comfort the she-cat, and padded over to her. 'Cherrysmoke?' she asked uncertainly, as she normally wasn't the sociable type. |

Cherrysmoke turned anguished blue-green eyes on the warrior. "Moonkit's gone," she said sadly, her voice tight. "He was so much like Crescentgaze. It's not fair. What have I done to StarClan to deserve this?" She buried her chin miserably in her paws again, as if her question invited no answer from Foxtail. |

Foxtail almost cried out as her suspicions were verified. She sat down beside Cherrysmoke. 'It's okay. I'm sure he'll make a great warrior of StarClan. And you haven't done anything wrong; life's just one big game of cat and mouse. Just give thanks to StarClan for Moonkit's life, however short it was.' she said, not knowing if this was the right thing to say or not. |

"He'd better be treated well up there," she murmured. The red-brown she-cat looked at Foxtail. "I was gloing to ask Jasminestar to make them apprentices. Then he has to die..." The queen sighed. "I suppose I'd better ask anyway. There's still Petalkit, Pansykit and Daisykit to think about." |

Foxtail smiled. 'At least you have your other kits to think about, to keep your mind off him. And I think Jasminestar is somewhere in the crowd.' she said, craning her neck to look for her leader. She licked one white paw as she looked. Then another thought sprang into her head. 'Cherrysmoke, did you happen to see Deathwish in, or after, the battle? I haven't, and I'm starting to get worried.' she said anxiously. |

Cherrysmoke got up. "Yes," she mewed. "I think I'll go and talk to her now." She carried on walking until she heard Foxtail's voice. Turning, she replied; "I think I might've. He was fighting a big ginger tabby... I think." The queen dipped her head and trotted over to Jasminestar. "Jasminestar? May I talk to you?" she enquired. Still her greif for her lost kit pained her like a slash to the chest, but she knew she had to think of her living daughters. |

A slender cat slipped into the camp. His icey blue eyes darting around as he searched for one cat in particular. His black fur was slightly ruffled and he had deep scratch on his cheek, but was otherwise virtually unharmed. He caught sight of Foxtail and zoomed over to her.
"Foxtail!" He meowed, speaking louder than he usually would in his eagerness to see her.

Foxtail whipped around at the sound of the familiar voice. 'Deathwish!' she cried, and ran to him, purring. 'Where were you?' she asked, licking the wound on his cheek. The sun suddenly came out from behind a cloud, bathing the two cats in golden light and making Foxtail's ginger and white fur sparkle. |
