Firestar leaped up onto the Raven's Ledge. She called for her clan and waited. She needed to give some cats mentors. Soon. So she had decided their mentors. As she waited, she licked her paw and drew it over her face a few times casually.

Icepaw heard the call so she carfully pushed her way out of the apprentice's den. Excitedly she walked into the clearing. Today she was going to get her mentor! She sat down and as she waited for the meeting to begin she groomed herself.

~Darkmagic~ Darkmagic stalked out of the warriors den flicking her long, straight tail as she walked. She looked around for someone to sit with but only saw Icepaw. who she didnt really know at all. She sat by herself in the sun and blinked up to Firestar with her brown-green eyes. She licked her white paw and drew it over her ears, sighing. She wanted someone to talk to and she shook her head in surprise when she realized that it was Shadowprowler that she wanted to be with... ~Brokenheart~ Brokenheart groaned as she heard a meeting being called. She wasnt feeling any better and she coughed as she stumbled to the entrance of the medicine cat den. She sat there, breathing in the fresh scents of outside the best she could, although it was near impossible with such a blocked up nose. She looked up at Firestar with streaming eyes and hoped the meeting wouldnt last too long. [/center][/color]

Spectreflame trotted briskly from the warriors' den, blue eyes bright with life as she stepped out into the bleak day. She could tell leaf fall was approaching; the sun was concealed by heavy cloud cover and patches of scarlet leaves carpeted the camp. The white she-cat padded into the centre of the camp, crouching beside Darkmagic. She turned to the she-cat. "How's training with Ravenpaw going?" she asked. She wanted to know whether her young sister was getting over Shakenleaf's death.
Wovenknot limped slowly after Brokenheart, her tail dragging in the dust. She too felt weary and sick, but she knew the elder must feel worse. The small grey tabby butted her forehead against Brokenheart's side, taking care only to do so lightly. She did not want to trigger one of the old she-cat's violent coughing fits. "You should go back," she croaked, head turned on one side. "I could tell you what happens. Your worse than I am." Wovenknot opened her eyes wider; she was desperate that the stubborn elder understand her anxiety as just that, and not pity. "Please."
Ravenpaw trailed into the camp, a skinny vole dangling from her muzzle. Her sharp ears had picked up Firestar's loud, clear call from where she had been hunting just outside the camp. After dropping her catch onto the fresh-kill pile, the coal coloured apprentice walked dejectedly towards Spectreflame. She sat beside her older sister, cool, ice blue eyes clouded with greif. She still felt terribly guilty about Jaguarstrike's death. Leaning her head against Spectreflame's side, Ravenpaw shut her eyes and let shame and sadness wash over her.

Sorrowpaw trotted exitedly over to Icepaw. "I cant wait to know who our menters will be" Sorrowpaw whispered to the pretty she-cat. He looked around the clearing for his sister but didnt see her.

Mudfur bounded through the entrance. She quickly groomed herself and trotted over to Sorrowpaw and Icepaw. Mudfur looked up to Firestar with pride.

Shardpaw made his way to the main clearing, following the Leader's call, and the waves of excitement coming from cats, along with, of course, their scents. He was still worried about Sorrowfrost. He'd not seen her in some time. And now his substitute was absolutely miserable because of Jaguarstrike passing away. His hollow eyes seemed to gaze in Firestar's direction, shining in some miserable way. He'd not been truly happy since he was back in IceClan. The memories began to flood back....
"You need to take our kits away from here, Frostfoot!" Frozenstar mewed over the coming hurricane.
"But what about you?" his desperate mother worriedly asked.
"I need to stay here, I just need to. Now, just save our kits! Go on without me!"
And then, picking them up by the scruff, Frostfoot took Shardkit and Riverkit away, into the unknown.... [/size][/color]

Highfrost's brown and black form hopped out, appearing by Darkmagic's side. "Hey, Darkmagic," he said, sounding much cheerier than he had been earlier. The medium-sized tom smiled cordially at her before looking up at Firestar. "What do you think this meeting's about?"
Crestedfire's large menacing body came forward as he sat behind Icepaw and Sorrowpaw. The tiger-striped ginger tom's gentle lopsided smile wasn't directed towards the apprentices. He was looking for Grayface, wherever she was. He hadn't talked to her in a while.
Saintcalling came like a wraith, his sinewy body uncurling from the shadows. He glared at Highfrost talking to Darkmagic and the cold-spoken tom sat down by Crestedfire, pensively silent as always. Where was Shadowprowler? he wondered.

Heavysand slunk into camp, his fluffy tail high in the air. He dropped the rabbit he and Mudfur had caught together in the fresh-kill pile. It looked like she was going to be one of the mentors. He was happy for her. [/size][/color]

Icepaw turned to hear Sorrowpaw talking to her. "Yeah I hope my mentor takes me hunting, I have been itching to go hunt in forever!" Icepaw said. Then she looked at Mudfur. She didn't say anything because al she knew about Mudfur was that she was Sorrowpaw's sister. Icepaw looked up at Firestar waiting for the meeting to start.

Mudfur looked over her shoulder to see that Heavysand had returned. She beckoned him over to sit next to her.

Icepaw watched Mudfur as she wanted a tom to sit next to her. "Sorrowpaw, is that tom Mudfur's mate?" Icepaw asked Sorrowpaw just quite enough so Mudfur couldn't hear.

~Darkmagic~ Darkmagic opened her mouth to answer Spectreflames quuestion but closed it when Ravenpaw came over. It was unfair to talk about the apprentice when she was sitting right next to them. She wondered for a moment about comforting her but she knew that Spectreflame would do a better job than her. All she did was blink in sympathy at the apprentice, it wasnt Ravenpaws fault, she hoped that the young she-cat would understand that soon. She turned her head as Highfrost came over. "Oh, I think Icepaw and Sorrowpaw are getting mentors" she said, still looking around for Shadowprowler. She spotted Saintcalling and smiled over at him before turning her gaze back to Firestar. Maybe Shadowprowler was out hunting or something... ~Brokenheart~ Brokenheart turned her head wearily as Wovenknot came over to her. She listened to the she-cat and her eyes filled with tears. "I must stay and watch this meeting, watch the apprentices get their mentors. I fear this is the last meeting i will ever see, you must understand" she croaked, looking down at her paws. What was crying good for? Nothing. She was becoming weak in her sickness, she must stay strong. She looked back up determindly and watched Firestar. "I must stay" she repeated, keeping her eyes fived on Firestar. [/center][/color]

"We are gathered here today to have two apprentices recieve their mentors. Icepaw and Sorrowpaw, please step forward." Firestar meowed. She hoped they liked their mentors. "Mudfur, you have shown yourself to be courageous and thoughtful, you will be mentor to Sorrowpaw. Please pass down all your skills to your apprentice. Highfrost, you have lost an apprentice, and didn't get to finish his apprenticeship. You will be mentor to Icepaw. I trust that you will pass down your skills to her." Firestar finished. She smiled at the four cats, hoping they would be happy with what they had. "Shardpaw. Please step froward. Sorrowfrost has asked me personally to help with your training. So you have two mentors. I will take over what Highfrost was helping you with." Firestar jumped down and touched noses with the blind apprentice. Then, she leaped back up. "There also has been some reports of scenting a badger near the Eclipseclan border. I want all kits to stay in the nursery, and no apprentice to go out without another apprentice or warrior." Firestar nodded.
ooc:// Shade, should Ravenpaw become a warrior?

Icepaw padded over to touch noses with her new mentor. She was excited to finally be an apprentice with a mentor now. After the meeting was done she went over to Sorrowpaw. "I hope you like your mentor." Icepaw joked, she knew Mudfur was his sister. Then she turned to Highfrost. "I will try my best to be a good apprentice." Icepaw said.

// Nah, not yet.
Spectreflame blinked at Darkmagic for a moment, before licking Ravenpaw between the ears. "It's okay," she murmured, before turning her light blue eyes back onto Firestar. It looked like Pearlblade was asleep; she was an elder now. Spectreflame resolved to tell her mother what had occured in the meeting after it ended. When Icepaw and Sorrowpaw recieved their mentors, Spectreflame could not help twitching with jealousy. She was older than Mudfur, and just as experienced as Highfrost. Why was Firestar still leaving her out?
Wovenknot's face fell and this time she could not stop herself from pressing her bony flank against Brokenheart's. "Oh, Brokenheart," she whispered. The words were soft, for the elder's ears only. "You can fight, you can get through this. Please. For me." The young tabby stepped back and sat, curling her tail around her paws. Her pelt was no longer smooth or neat, as it had once been; clumps of fur was missing and the hair that remained looked lank and grimy. Wovenknot gave a harsh cough, before turning to look up at Firestar. She chanted the new apprentices' names in a cracked tone, before falling into memories of training Spindlepaw and Frostpaw.

Brokenheart looked up at Wovenknot, thankful for the act if friendship. "Maybe not Wovenknot. You are young and strong, I am old and weak. You will make it through this illness. I am not so sure about myself" she croaked,before looking at the apprentices. She remembered training Oakpaw. "Oh Oakpaw" she whispered. She still grieved for her apprentice. She had failed him just like she had failed everyone else. MoonClan didnt need her, a worthless lump of fur. She just took up room. "When we are done i think i may go for a walk" she said in a rusty voice, looking at Wovenknot fondly. She had grown to like the she-cat in her time in the medicine cat cat den. ooc: She dies on the walk [/center]

Shadowprowler trotted into camp, jaws full of fresh kill, when he noticed he had missed a Clan meeting. He deposited his kill and padded over to Darkmagic. He liked the she-cat, and they were good friends. 'What did I miss?' he whispered into her ear.

Darkmagic felt something inside her flip when she spotted Shadowprowler. "Eh, um what? Oh, Icepaw and Sorrowpaw got mentors, Mudfur and Highfrost, Firestar is helping with Shardpaws training and htere have been reports of badger scent near the EclipseClan border. Uh, I think thats all" she whispered, blushing under her black and white pelt. She looked over at Saintcalling, she had notcied him looking around. "I think maybe Saintcalling was looking for you" she said, pointing with her tail to where the tom sat. [/center][/color]

Shadowprowler nodded as the pretty she-cat listed what had happened. 'Okay.' then he misinterpreted her words as a sign that she didn't want him to sit with her, and a look of confusion crossed his face. 'Oh... okay. I'll go sit with him then if you want...'

// Okay.
Wovenknot nodded. "Okay." She mewed. "Do you want me to come with you?" She asked the question in friendly tones, feeling a great rush of affection for the elderly she-cat. Brokenheart was not at all as grumpy or mean as many thought her to be. Underneath she was a nice she-cat, though perhaps a little short tempered. Wovenknot looked over at Spectreflame, feeling slightly guilty. She knew her friend was still angry with her over the apprentice business.

~Darkmagic~ "No I didnt mean it like that!" she said a little too loudly, blushing in case anyone had heard. She rubbed her cheek against Shadowprowlers. " I mean he actually was looking for you, but you can go see him afterwards" she said. looking into his leafy green eyes made her heart skip a beat so she looked away in embaressment. He probobly thought she was being really strange she thought worrdily and tried to relax. ~Brokenheart~ "Thank you but no Wovenknot, I need some time to think" the scrawny elderly she-cat said to her friend. Her friend. Brokenheart had thought she would never think of a cat that way ever again. ooc: Shes gonna be travelling to meet with Fallenleaf again and dies just before she gets to the CC border [/center]

It was Shadowprowler's turn to blush. 'Oh, okay.' he said softly, smiling at Darkmagic. 'I'll see what he wants later. Hey, do yuo want to come hunting with me later?' he asked.

Highfrost swallowed heavily and stared at Icepaw and then Firestar. He feared that StarClan would take their vengeance on him once more. Exhaling deeply, for he knew he was panicking, he turned to smile warmly at Icepaw. "Welcome, Icepaw, I shall do my best to complete my mentor duties," he said. Now why did he say that? That made it sound like StarClan was going to kill Icepaw next! "Um...and I hope that our time is spent on making you a warrior worthy of Firestar," he amended sheepishly.
Crestedfire chanted Icepaw's and Sorrowpaw's names. "Congratulations, Highfrost," he squeaked out, not brave enough to do the same to Mudfur.
Saintcalling's ear twitched at the sound of Shadowprowler and Darkmagic; he blushed coolly under his black cover of fur, but stared straight ahead. He sighed through his nose, not looking at either of them.[/sub]

Wovenknot smiled gently at her friend. "Alright," she mewed, brushing Brokenheart's cheek with her nose. "You be careful, mind." The grey tabby looked up at Firestar, wondering whether the ceremony was finished. She shot a weak smile at Spectreflame, who glared at her in return. Wovenknot's ears drooped, and she let out a couple of hacking coughs. She understood Spectreflame's anger; Wovenknot was younger than the white warrior, but had had two apprentices. Spectreflame had had none.

~Darkmagic~ Darkmagic smiled at Shadowprowler. "Sure, when would you like to go?" she asked, standing up to stretch her legs. She rolled her shopulders a few times and then sat again to wait for Firestar to announce the end of the meeting. ~Brokenheart~ Brokenheart smiled at Wovenknot. "I'll be fine, dont you worry. Ill be back to grump at you all in no time!" she kaughed but it turned into a hacking cough which took a minute to die down. She looked at the clouds gathering overhead. "I think it might rain" she said quietly. [/center][/color]

"Sounds good to me" Darkmagic said. She felt his pelt touch hers and she purred happily. She didnt know what this warm fuzzy feeling was that she was getting but she didnt care. It felt nice.

Ooc: Hehe lol Bic: Shadowprowler nodded. 'I'll go and see what Saintcalling wanted to talk to me about then.' he said, and waved his tail at the she-cat before padding off in his best friend's direction. 'Hey, Saintcalling, Darkmagic said you were looking for me?' he said.

Mudfur touched noses with her brother. It was exiting to be able to train him as an apprentice and not just a brother. "Congratulations Icepaw, Highfrost. Im sure you will train Icepaw to become a perfect warrior". Mudfur smiled at them both before turning to Sorrowpaw "I hope you dont think you can skip out on training just because Im your sister". She smiled warmly at him.
