"I'll protect you until my last breath, and forevermore!"   ♋ G υ α я ɖ ɨ α и p α w ♋ "Memory is the treasury
and guardian of all things."_______________________________________________ [Guardianpaw yowled in pain as something clamped down on his tail, dropping his ball of mass. Precious water flounced out of the ball, splashing into the dirty swamp.
He whipped around, eyes ablaze, and hissed at Rabbitpaw angrily.]
"According to the code, mouse-brain," Guardianpaw spat, "We are both equals training to become something. Just because you'll be medicine cat apprentice won't mean you can ever beat me in battle, so I'd like to see how you'd be superior warrior, let alone medicine cat! Besides, if Hauntedheart wasn't out sneaking off somewhere, maybe you'd be a better one!"
He felt a twinge of regret at the last statement, but his anger got the best of him, and he continued in a lower growl, "You can start by doing this more often."
The apprentice eyed Rabbitpaw squarely, obviously less angry and with a hint of respect, and huffed, "Shouldn't let anyone step on you, no matter what. That's the true spirit of a NightClan anything."
[He turned and swatted his moss ball away, glaring angrily as it bounced away.]
"I'm going to get another moss ball," he declared, turning to pad away, and added, "Then we'll come back as many times as you order, medicine cat."
[He bounded away and gathered another ball of moss, noticably less fresh and large, and dipped it in the clear water again, running back after the two to catch up.]
(( Ohey, you earned an almost-compliment. +1 for Rabbipaw! :0 ))

S h i m m e r
The small golden bengal slid out from the nursery, brambles tangled in her fur and twigs clinging to her sides. She had been inside helping to repair the nursery, while trying to keep an eye out for Silentkit. Through the past few sunrises, Shimmer had gotten to know Silentkit a lot more and they had become close friends. For some reason, the silver eyed kitten felt obligated to protect her. Blinking her silver eyes once or twice, Shimmer surveyed the camp. Dens were torn apart, the medicine den was busting at the seams with injured cats, and blood pools were everywhere. All of a sudden, Shimmer's paws were swept out from underneath her and her head began to swim.
It was a black night; the silence was strangling. Someone was lost. Dark eyes watched from a distance; the feeling of being watched crawled up the cat's spine. Suddenly, a familiar voice spoke out from the shadows. A burst of happiness overwhelmed the cat, but suddenly her spirit darkened. The cat emitted a hiss, in which the dark eyes let out a laugh. The dark eyes revealed themself to be a gaunty, terrible looking cat with a twisted look on his face. The golden bengal cat slid out her claws and hissed angrily, her eyes brimming with hatred. In a swift movement, the other cat leapt at her. The golden cat twisted around and caught him in the belly, but she was out of shape. She wasn't as fast as she used to be, and she grew weary easily. Yet she fought like a cat from LionClan, even though the other cat had the advantage. The bengal landed a deadly blow to the cat's face, but she was already losing blood fast. As the cat collapsed onto her sides, she spitefully spat in the cat's face. As her vision dimmed, she vowed to herself that she would destroy this demon and avenge her death for her kits. The last thing that rang in the cat's ears was the manical laugh of the demon cat that had destroyed her in cold blood.
Shimmer blinked herself out of her trance, shaking her head to clear it. What a strange flashback! Or whatever it was! Shimmer glanced back down at the pool of blood and shivered, quickly scraping dirt over it. Crimson beads still poked through, but at least it was no longer a glaring lake of a horrible past. The golden kit was left wondering what it was about, but one thing she did know: what she just saw had something to do with her. It left her with a feeling of satisfaction, for an unknown reason. Shimmer shook her pelt, ruffling it up. The silver eyed kitten glanced over her shoulder at the nursery and twitched her ears, then turned and padded into the medicine den. She was covered in scrapes from helping Silentkit and trying to help with the nursery, but she didn't care. She silently began to apply cobwebs to the cats with the deepest wounds, her mind playing over what she had seen and heard over the course of the past few days. She felt a bit awkward around all the other cats, but bit through it. She squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, trying to rid herself of what had just overtaken her. She swathed her paw in cobwebs and began to move onto cat after cat, trying to stop the blood flow.
(( I'm really sorry about this stupidly undetailed and idiotic post. My brain is frying right now and I just got a sever case of writer's block.

 ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗Rabbitpaw :: Medicine Cat Apprentice :: NightClan :: Tom
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝____________________________________________________________________________________________[My eyes pierced the ground, my fur burning furiously. He had me there; we were both just apprentices. But still, he didn't have a right to boss me around like that! His comment about Hauntedheart made me growl slightly. That hurt. Especially since I didn't even know if she was safe. After all, she had only went out to get poppy seeds. My pelt prickled. Had that cat-thing that blew through the camp gotten her? My eyes were wide for a moment as I thought about it more. No! I was barely an apprentice! My mentor couldn't be dead now!
A calmer voice came from the same cat who had pretty much told me off and pretty much downed my mentor. I blinked in surprise, having to look to make sure that it had been Guardianpaw who spoke. I sighed. He had me there too. I was probably a little defensive. My facial features relaxed for a moment, but then I narrowed my eyes. No way I was going to apologize to this uppity cat! Without another word, I grabbed a moss ball, padding back over to the water. My tail twitched in irritation behind me, my eyes completely focused onthe path in front of me. I didn't dare to look back at the gray tom. I shook my head slightly. It was probably one of the first times I had really interacted with this cat; furthermore, acting like such a kit in front of anyone else. Beautiful first impression. I snorted. I was so stupid.
I bent down, dipping the moss on the water. I sighed, hobbling back to where the other two had been. I counted out how much moss we had. I sighed. I decided that four was definitely enough for now. Either way, I didn't want to be around Guardianpaw any longer than I had too. I nodded slightly to Guardianpaw. "'E han go backhh" [I muttered around the moss I was carrying. My paws quickly guided back toward the camp. I winced. I would have to treat my paw once we got back; or after I was done with treating the serious injuries. I hissed slightly through clenched teeth. My paw ached. I had most definitely torn a muscle in it; I could tell.]
[ooc:] Haha, but his score goes to -3 after having his mentor, his skills because of his mentor, and his lack of awareness of the Warrior code insulted. And the fact he can't fight worth anything. xD Poor thing, but he almost got a compliment. So proud! :'D____________________________________________________________________________________________.....

[Guardianpaw snorted and followed quietly, protesting no longer. Once they reached camp, he gently brought the ball to the elders, letting them lap at it quietly. There was still some water left for the kits, so he brought some to Silentkit. After she had taken a drink, he asked where Shimmerkit was, and he padded quickly to the medicine den.]
"Shimmerkit?" he called softly. "I brought some water for you-well, it was for the Clan, and I thought maybe you'd want the rest..."
[He placed the ball gently at her feet, scooting back in almost an embarrassed manner. He looked away, not catching her gaze, and shifted on his feet nervously.
His pelt had fluffed out a bit in anxiety and he tried to casually smooth it, licking his chest down self-consciously.]
"I'm helping Rabbitpaw fetch the water, but after that, I'll help build the nursery some more," he murmured quietly, raising his head and forcing himself to keep eye contact with her.
[Why does she make me act like such a kit? he wondered, shaking his head to clear the dizzy feeling he was getting.]

 ~Falconpaw~ [Falconpaw hiss angrily at Rabbitpaw and Guardianpaw as they fought. His fur bristled with rage and sinking his claws into the soft earth was all he could do to stop himself from leaping on Guardianpaw and shredding him. The ebony black tom stood up slowly and, ignoring the wound, picked up the leaf with the moss in it. Despite how angry the other apprentices' words made him, they were right. He set the leaf down again and watched the other two toms go. Sinking his claws into the earth, and filled with a rage like never before, he threw his head back and yowled with all the air in his very body. He was angry at everything at the moment, his half-clan blood, Guardianpaw, Rabbitpaw, his father, the leader; everything. ]
[He ran in circles hissing and yowling for several heartbeats until he felt like he couldn't breath. Then, he collapsed on his side and snarled at the sky, lashing out at the air with his paw. Falconpaw had never had a fit like this before, and hoped he never would again. ]
[Picking up the leaf and moss he made his way back to camp. The black tom set the leaf and moss down in the medicine cat's den before turning and pelting out of camp as fast as his legs would carry him. He was going back to Dead Cats Hollow. ]
[Falconpaw ran all the way back to Dead Cats Hollow before he tripped suddenly and went crashing to the ground. he lay there dazed for a moment and panted heavily. He didn't both get up, instead he closed his eyes and continued to pant.]
((Falconpaw, what are you doing?!))

" Keep holding on, 'cause you know we'll make it through! " S h i m m e r k i t " With you by my side I will fight and defend! "  (( Thanks for the offer Whimsy, I do appreciate it, but I'm going to try creating another one! ^^ c: ))
[ The small golden kit stumbled out of the medicine den, swaying on her feet a bit. Okay, so she was NOT a medicine cat. At the sound of a familiar cat's voice, Shimmerkit looked up sharply and met Guardianpaw's grey gaze with her own silver one. She blinked once and nodded, twitching her ears in appreciation. ]
"Thanks, Guardianpaw," Shimmerkit said warmly, craning her neck to press her muzzle to the ball of wet moss. Droplets of cooling water gushed into her jaws, wetting her dry throat.
[ Shimmerkit finished her drink, quenching her thirst but still leaving some water for someone else. She pushed the ball back toward Guardianpaw, noticing his agitated behavior. She suppressed a laugh, swallowing her amusement. She wondered why he was acting nervous around her, her silver eyes confused. Why was he acting all wierd around her? Shimmerkit blinked, then turned her head to pull at some stray twigs that had gotten snarled in her fur. She yanked hard and pulled one out, a few stray tufts of her golden fur. She still had fluffy kitten fur, which she despised. She just wanted to look like one of the warriors, with her fur sleek and smooth, her muscles rippling underneath her pelt. She ruffled her pelt to shake herself, a cloud of dust coming away from her fur an making her cough. ]
"One thing's for sure. I will NEVER make a good medicine cat. I think I'll just go back to helping with the nursery, which is something I'm good at," Shimmerkit muttered, her ears twitching and her nose being tickled.
[ Shimmerkit rose to her paws and swished her still short tail, stretching her back and sliding her razor sharp claws out for a moment. She began to pad toward the nursery, glancing back over her shoulder at Guardianpaw warmly. She flicked him on the shoulder with her tail in a friendly manner, then began to trot off toward the nursery. Shimmerkit slid inside the warm den and faced the glaring hole in the side, most of the twigs crushed to dust. Shimmerkit glanced at Silentkit and waved her tail as she passed by, her pawsteps set toward the nursery wall. She sat down heavily and began to take some of the twigs from and outside pile and began to reinforce the wall, weaving twigs in and out, in and out. ] Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!
It's time to try defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down!
I'm through accepting limits
'Cause someone says there so
Some things cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well if that's love,
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
And you won't bring me down!

[Guardianpaw felt his nervousness change to frustration as Shimmerkit blinked at him with amusement. He scuffed the earth angrily, twitching his nose, but tilted his head as she spoke.]
"You could be a great medicine cat if you wanted to," he said strongly, then added hastily, "But I think maybe you'd be a better warrior."
[He blinked at her and then grinned, tail waving.]
"Hey, I bet Lavenderstar'll assign you to someone soon!" he exclaimed excitedly, a soft (and rare) purr rising in his throat. "And then you'll be one of the best warriors in the Clan, like me."
He swatted her head, eyes glinting mischeviously, and crowed, "But you'd have to get some muscle first, if you ever wanna beat me!"
[He bumped her side playfully, eyes glowing, and nodded with a sigh.]
"Right, I'll join you after collecting more moss with Ditzy and Fritzy," he sighed, gloom returning to his face.

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗Rabbitpaw :: Medicine Cat Apprentice :: NightClan :: Tom
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝____________________________________________________________________________________________[I stared, watching Guardianpaw enter the camp. My eyes shut for a few heartbeats. The breeze felt nice today. Wasn't too cold or too hot, and the wind wasn't strong enough to blow much away. I smiled, trotting almost bouncily around in a circle. I carefully peeked over my shoulder to make sure Guardianpaw and Falconpaw were out of view; and circled once more. The last thing I wanted was for anyone to see me goofing around. I grinned, my eyes darting playfully from everything in my line of vision. There were no insects visible; the squirrels and the birds had long since vanished. I could only see vegetation.
A sudden gust of wind picked a leaf up, sending it spinning through the air. I giggled, half-limping, half dashing after it. My tail flickered behind me in excitement. My right paw quickly pinned the leaf down. I closed my eyes once more. My heart felt like it was beating in my ears. A shaky sigh escaped my muzzle. No, I hadn't run like that in awhile. I snorted. If that continued, I would most definitely become out of shape.
Sharp yowling erupted somewhere close, sending my about a foxlength in the air. My fur fluffed up, and I glanced wildly at my surroundings. That yowl...it had sounded much like Falconpaw's. My eyes betrayed my alarm. What if something had attacked him? I shot forward. He certainly wouldn't last against much of anything, especially since he was wounded. My ears flickered for a moment, trying to pinpoint the set of paws. They were bounding away from me, almost in the opposite direction of camp. I blinked. What exactly was he doing?
I hobbled as fast as I could after the scent, irritation slowly making its way in my bones. I hissed slightly. Was this tom trying to get himself hurt even more? It was ridiculous. Either way, what on earth had set him off? I pursued after him, my eyes narrowed.
By the time I made it to Dead Cats Hollow, the black apprentice was already sprawled out on the ground. I growled slightly. What an idiot. Who would want to come to a stupid place like this just to lie on the ground? Despite my irritation, I put on a calm expression.] "Falconpaw, I can't have my patients running off like this, especially with a wound like that!" [I crowed, staring at him with a somewhat bored expression.] "You're lucky that a fox hasn't caught your scent." [I meowed, sitting down. My eyes shut for a moment, sighing. There was probably something that brought him crazily yelling all the way out here, but I wasn't about to ask. I snorted. The last thing toms did was talk about their feelings with other toms.]

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬ ▬▬▬ (I see a victim twisted )
[Usually there would be at least one or two lizards or mice stirring around, but Dead Cat's Hollow was silent as a grave. Not a single creature stirred, and even the permanent resident of the hollow felt a chill creeping up his spine. This was...unnatural. Not to mention, he just heard roars and growls near Nightclan...was it attacked? He didn't know, and he didn't care.
Lying flat on his belly beneath one tree root, at the entrance of one of the endless treacherous tunnels that ran through the whole area, Phantom had his claws sheathed and was pawing out dirt from a collapsed tunnel, trying to clear it. The stampede had caused some of his tunnels to collapse, giving him a new job of clearing them out. Only he knew how to make his way around the maze of tunnels, most of them were on the verge of collapsing even if a kit walks past. Only he knew which ones were safe and which ones were not. This was his home, his abode, his lair.
The sound of huffing and pattering pawsteps made him lift his head. From the smell of it, it seemed that a tom had entered Dead Cat's Hollow. A stupid mistake, he should have known that this place was haunted, by none other than him. Phantom's eyes narrowed and he climbed out of his tunnel and into the inside of a hollowed tree trunk. Taking a deep breath, he hissed into the tree trunk, using the hollowed tree to amplify his voice.]
"Leave..."
[A thousand cats seemed to whisper one after another, all speaking to Falconpaw. It was as if a thousand cats were hissing from the shadows, warning this intruder to stay away. Those who were cowardly never ventured near Dead Cat's Hollow, those who were adventurous crept near but the treacherous maze of tunnels kept even the bravest at bay, and those who were wise stayed clear of this haunted place.] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬ ▬▬▬

~Falconpaw~ [Falconpaw sat up when he heard the cat's hiss. The young tom leaped to his paws. His ears were flattened back and he hissed venomously. The ebony tom unsheathed his claws and sank them into the ground.]
[This stranger was clearly not from NightClan, but his sent was that of Dead Cats Hollow, could he be one of the dead cats? Falconpaw wondered. He shifted slightly to black Rabbitpaw from Phantom.]
"Rabbitpaw, run back to camp and get help, I won't make it all the way back," Falconpaw hissed in a low voice to the medicine cat's apprentice.
[His wound had been torn open from his rough treatment of it and now the blood was streaming down his side, matting his fur, and dripping onto the ground. He was trying to shake off the dizzy tiredness that had come crashing over him after he had fallen.]
[Falconpaw swayed slightly, becoming unbalanced. He sank his claws deeper into the ground to steady himself, and snarled at the antagonizer.]
"Who are you?" He spat bravely, trying to sound like a powerful warrior, and bristling so he was twice his normal size.
