[The whisper was so gentle that it could have only been the wind, blowing past the hollow bits of tree branches and trunks to make that sound...or could it? The entire hollow seemed almost alive, and felt as if the whole hollow was watching the two apprentices. The medicine cat apprentice was wiser than the other, at least he knew well enough that this was his land.
Sitting underneath the dead, hollow trunk, in whatever small space was available, Phantom allowed himself a small smile. He had a strange enjoyment of toying with other cats, and watching the two apprentices' antics were quite amusing. One thing he knew for sure, those two weren't in a hurry to come back any time soon.]

[Eaglesoar said in a low growl to himself. He was only an apprentice at the time when Ravage last appeared, but he remembered that horrendous and terrifying large frame well. To think that he would attack Nightclan directly this time...]
"To get rid of him, we could lure him out and set a trap for him. Many lives will be lost in the process though. Who knows, once Ravage is gone, the prey might come back and everything will be back to normal. I'd be willing to act as the bait."
[He growled with fierce determination burning in his eyes, if it was for the good of Nightclan then he would be more than glad to throw his life away. It was an act that would cost Nightclan more lives, but in the end would ensure its safety. There was no food in the forest at all, and unless Ravage wasn't disposed of, they would all starve to death.]

Will you stand up and take your chance?XXX  "Chaos arises, blood will be spilt..."[Lavenderstar listened to Foxfur's suggestion wth immense focus. She nodded thoughtfully. What her deputy said had great points. The dens could very well get destroyed again, so they could all fix those gradually. What they needed now was herbs and prey, since both things were virtually gone. She nodded slightly, but didn't say anything. She wanted to hear other's debates about it.
A new voice made Lavenderstar nod slightly. Eaglesoar, he was definitely wise, so his word would definitely hold great importance. But his next words of suggestion made even the calm leader show a look of utter shock. Her mind quickly pieced and repieced the words together, backwords and forwards. Either way, it made absolutely no sense.
Mudnose stared almost awkwardly at Eaglesoar, her ears twitching uncomfortably. Is....is he joking? she thought nervously. Had she missed the pun? Her eyes stared at his face. His look of pure determination confirmed it. It wasn't a joke. Dear StarClan, it wasn't a joke.
Mudnose's expression quickly turned sour, forming into a scowl. She hissed slightly, her fur rising.] "Eaglesoar, you can't be serious!" [she snapped.] "Did you see the size of that thing? This isn't just a fox, or a dog! This is Ravage we're talking about! Not even a whole Clan would be able to take him down. Don't give such an idiotic sug-" [Mudnose grew silent as she was aware of piercing violet eyes resting on her. Her ears twitched slightly, and she bowed her head slightly. "Sorry."
Lavenderstar waited for her den to grow silent before beginning.] "Mudnose, the only 'idiotic suggestions', as you put it, are the ones not voiced," she meowed calmly, closing her eyes. She looked back at Eaglesoar. "However, she does have a point. I can't afford to risk my warriors like that, or use you as bait," [she meowed. She smiled warmly though, nodding.] "I commend your attitude though. Loyal warrior of NightClan to the end. I'm honored to have such warriors that would protect this Clan with their lives," she murmured, nodding.
Lavenderstar sat for a moment, thinking quietly for awhile before she spoke. "I have a feeling that we are not the only ones being affected right now," she meowed calmly. "Knowing Ravage, he probably sent others to attack the other Clans, or might just be attacking them himself. I have a feeling we will have to discuss this with the other leaders very, very soon." She stood up slowly, wincing as her left leg popped. She moved it experimentally for a moment before continuing.] "Until then, we will have at least four or five warriors posted as sentries; one near the BreezeClan border, two near the StormClan border since their territory leads to unoccupied territory, and two overlooking the SeaClan border. We will run hunting parties too. Every apprentice will be required to stay with their mentor. Kits and elders will be put somewhere out of the way so they'll be protected. And Hauntedheart and Rabbitpaw can pull cats as needed to help with duties such as herb gathering and fetching water," she meowed. She looked around, nodding once. "Now, I must do a few ceremonies and explain this to the Clan," she finished. Without another word, she padded to the edge of her den, jumping down to the ground. She clambered up the side of the Shadowstone, yowling at the top of her voice. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey, join me at the bottom of the Shadowstone for a Clan meeting!" she ordered quickly. She quickly started the meeting, not bothering to wait for everyone to sit down. She cleared her throat. "My senior warriors and I have reached a desicion on what must be done in this event," she meowed. The black leader quickly explained her plans to the Clan, nodding slightly as they murmured in agreement [ooc:]sorry for the auto, we have to get this moving NOW. Said 'explained plans' are stated above, I don't feel it's necessary to tye them out twice]].
Lavenderstar's ears flickered slightly as her eyes gazed at the four bodies near the Shadowstone. She bowed her head. "We have lost four Clanmates in this fight, including Falconpaw's mentor. He will be reassigned a mentor as soon as this ordeal is over. All of the lives lost today will live within our hearts forever. StarClan, guide them safely to your hunting grounds." she meowed, her head lowered.
Lavenderstar nodded slightly. "Now, for happier news, I would like Shimmerkit to come forth. It is time that she was made an apprentice," she called out, her eyes searching the crowd for the kit. She beckoned the leopard-spotted kit forward. "Come forth." "...Will you take your place with me?" ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

 ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗Rabbitpaw :: Medicine Cat Apprentice :: NightClan :: Tom
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝____________________________________________________________________________________________[I shifted uncomfortably as one word hissed past my ears, carried by the wind. "Go..." [The wind whispered almost soothingly, sending a chill down my spine. My eyes looked around somewhat nervously, feeling as if my pelt was burning under all of the stares. I hissed slightly. This couldn't be just one cat. It had to be a party of at least twenty. Cats, or whatever they were, they had to be everywhere, staring at the two. I blinked, nodding slightly.] "I understand, sirs and ma'ams. We won't bother you again, just make sure to stay out of NightClan's way," [I meowed strongly. I smiled slightly. We were lucky that they were even allowing us to go without attacking. Then again, we hadn't caused harm to them, so it was only fair.
A sudden thud next to me made me sigh impatiently. I closed my eyes, turning to the ebony apprentice, who had slumped over. I closed my eyes for a moment, curing inwardly. Wonderful, simply wonderful. As if I was in any position to carry him. I hissed at an unconscious Falconpaw.] "Don't be so selfish, you useless apprentice! I ain't gonna carry you back, you're too heavy!" [I snapped, eyeing the still breathing cat with anger. He didn't move. I slowly backed away from the tom, my eyes narrowing.] "I'm going back without you!" [I warned slowly, still backing up. He still didn't get up. My eyes snapped shut for a moment. When they opened, my paws guided me back toward Falconpaw. I hissed slightly, shaking my head.] "Of all cats, why'd I have to choose you to help me get water?" [I asked aloud, aware that I had just created more work for myself. My jaws parted, grabbing ahold of Falconpaw's scruff. I backed up a little and turned around, dragging the tom with me. I snorted. At least him fainting had relieved the tension in the air. That place had been giving me the creeps. My ears twitched uncomfortably as I padded farther and farther away from Dead Cats Hollow. All of those piercing stares....was it wise to allow those rogues live on NightClan territory? After all, we had just gotten attacked. I blinked. I would have to mention it to Lavenderstar eventually.
I padded quickly into camp, dragging Falconpaw behind me. I slunk into the medicine cat den, setting his limp, unconscious body in an un-neat heap next to a nest. I grabbed cobwebs and sat down next to the unconscious tom. I quickly set myself to work on his wounds, gagging occasionally at the stench of blood.]
[ooc:] I got permission from Ember to auto Falconpaw's fainting, since she's on a trip.____________________________________________________________________________________________.....

" 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! "  [ Back and forth, back and forth. Shimmerkit weaved twigs, quickly accumulating a large portion of the nursery wall. She only looked up as Swansong entered, blinking once in acknowledgement to the older warrior. She then returned her attention to the wall, in and out, in and out. The bengal kit had been working so vigilantly that she hadn't even realized a Clan meeting was called until she heard her name. At the sound of her name being called out in front of the whole Clan, her heat began to race. What had she done? Was she going to be kicked out because she had non-Clan parents? Was she not being responsible enough? Was she going to be exiled? Was she going to be fed to the lion who had attacked the camp?! Horrible thoughts began cramming themselves into Shimmerkit's mind, making her dizzy. She stumbled through the nursery entrance, pausing a moment to steady herself. She then slunk forward, her ears nearly flattened on her head, her silver eyes shifting back and forth nervously as she weaved her way through the crowd. ]
"Y-Yes, L-Lavenders-star?" the kit stuttered, her nerves eating through her whole body. Oh StarClan, she IS going to feed me to the beast!
(( She only heard her name called, but she didn't hear about the apprentice thing. Pay her little heed. xD )) 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!

She had made many kits into apprentices during her term as leader, and it always made her smile when she saw how excited, or nervous a kit was to be made into an apprentice. She smiled reassuringly as she began speaking the words that had once been spoken by Fathom, and Ravenstar before that, and so on.]
"Cats of NightClan, this is a proud day for NightClan, by naming apprentices we show that this Clan will survive and remain strong." [she meowed strongly. Her eyes looked down to Shimmerkit, and she smiled warmly once more.] Shimmerkit, from now on until you receive your warrior name you will be known as Shimmerpaw! We welcome you as a NightClan warrior apprentice," [she announced. Her eyes flickered to Eaglesoar, and she nodded.]
Eaglesoar, since Vanillafur has been made a warrior due to your wonderful skills as a mentor, I feel that you are ready for another apprentice. Until Shimmerpaw receives her warrior name, you will be her mentor. I am positive you will pass on your courage, loyalty, and strength on to Shimmerpaw, and teach her the skills that will make her a brave and commendable warrior of NightClan." [Lavenderstar's bright eyes looked down at the two once more, waiting patiently for them to greet one another.] "...Will you take your place with me?" ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

 PinepawAre you alive, or not?✓┏━━━━━━━━━┓✗
- -
[ My eyes were wide and my ears were cocked and pricked at full their full sound capturing abilities as a drew away from where I had been working and toward Shadowstone. Only half listening to the announcement, my ears would occasionally flick toward the path where the giant lion had made it's exit and I'd catch my gaze slowly drifting over there as well. I admitted I had the slight paranoia of the creature, but who wouldn't? Watching it bat 3 cats away in one swipe and maul a few kittens doesn't exactly make you want to become acquaintances with it. Because really. If that thing came back... An involuntary shiver slipped down my spine at the thought and I mournfully glanced at the lost. Oh, if that thing came back, it would only get worse. And worse. And worse. Prey barren from the forest, herb stock destroyed, shelters destroyed... We were in no shape to take on lion, and Ravage the lion, no less.]
[Turning my gaze up sharply toward Lavenderstar (it had been drifting toward the forest again) I nodded with slow understanding at the plan. Okay. Just hope it doesn't completely crash or anything like that. Hope Ravage doesn't have kittens. Ooo, happy thoughts Pinepaw, happy thoughts. Squeezing my green eyes shut with the brief concentration of clearing my head, I quickly opened them again, blinking a few times to clear my vision. Looking up, I saw Lavenderstar signalling for Shimmerkit. Ah. Apprenticenesship. Oh, please don't let the lion come back.]

[ I opened my eyes, but they were too heavy to keep open. I closed them again and sighed, but suddenly jumped up. Had I fallen asleep?
Since when? I purred, because I felt really good after my nap, and the moment after, Lavenderstar called a clan meeting. I padded cheerfully to the area the clan gathered. I hoped to sit in the front, because I noticed that I can't see, because so many people were in front of me.
Luckily I found a spot in the front. I listened to my leader. She mentioned hunting-finally! I hoped I could go. But I was wondering what we'd find, since most of the prey ran away.. ]

" 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! " [ Shimmerkit's tail lashed with irritation as Lavenderstar proceeded with her ceremony. Her silver eyes grew angry as something suddenly arose within her, making her heart drop. She drew up her still small frame, her silver eyes glowing with a defiance and fierce determination that only a long lost NightClan queen had held before. ]
"No! In the name of StarClan, I refuse to become an apprentice! I refuse because of unjust treatment of another kit that should have been made an apprentice long before I! In the nursery she sits, watching as her siblings train to become warriors, and what is she left to do? She is eight moons old and is still sitting in the nursery! The warrior code clearly states that kits must be six moons old to become apprentices! Why is she being incriminated against? Is it because she is crippled? Since when was a NightClan cat stopped by a physical flaw? Brightheart of the Old ThunderClan lost an eye and an ear, but she still fought like a noble warrior! She and her mate created a series of fighting moves that made her as valuable warrior as any! And why will NightClan not give Silentkit the same treatment as any other apprentice! THey have yet to even try! Is NightClan the strongest Clan in the forest? You all believe so, yes, but why is a kit being let slip through the cracks?" Shimmerkit roared, her tail lashing and her silver eyes holding such a challenge with such passion in her gaze and in her words.
[ Her mind was whirring. What had just encompassed her to say that?! She was a new kit, a rogue, for StarClan's sake, and she just up and challenged the leader?! But for what? Shimmerkit had heard stories about another cat that had looked just like her. Leopardstorm, noble queen and fierce warrior of NightClan that could be defiant and was never afraid to step up against the leader for something she believed in. Shimmerkit's silver eyes grew wider as the fierce passion and determination escaped from them, her heartbeat slowing down once more. Her head became steady as her body returned to it's natural pulse yet again. ]
(( For those who want to, cats ONLY that knew Leopardstorm can become suspicious. The cats who I want to find out are Lavenderstar, Eaglesoar, and Puresun. :3 But feel free to become suspicious! ^^ )) Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules

Everyone seemed to abandon the medicine cat den to go the meeting, and she felt the familiar sense of solitude encroach on her being.]
[When she heard that Eaglesoar got an apprentice, she blinked and sighed, happy for her mate. But still, her competitive side made her fur prickle slightly with jealousy. She made a deep gouge in the ground with her huge claws.]
Stupid, stupid, STUPID! she scolded herself, her mental voice screaming. How could you do something as STUPID as get hurt?! At this rate, you'll NEVER get a proper apprentice! Let alone prove to your clan that you ARE loyal and that you DIDN'T abandon them.

She could almost feel a maternal vibe pulsing from the she-cat. It felt quite familiar. It was almost as if she was portraying a protective mother. Her thoughts drifted from that. What Shimmerkit said was pretty true; Silentkit did have the right at an opportunity of being an apprentice. Though the issue with that was training her. It made no sense to try to train a cat who only could use two of her legs. It could prove to be too hard on her.
Closing her eyes, Lavenderstar spoke.] "Shimmerkit, I admire your pasion for your new friend, but there simply isn't a way to teach her how to fight. We haven't experienced Silentkit's unique situation for ourselves, so I can't even think of where to begin her training," [she admitted wearily. She stared down at her paws for a moment.] "If there are ways to train her, speak up, Shimmerkit, because I honestly haven't a clue," [Lavenderstar admitted through clenched teeth. She shut her eyes for a moment. Great, now she would seem like the villian in this situation. Her tail twitched for a moment, her eyes going back to the fierce kit once more.] "I would definitely appreciate your insight."
[ooc:] v.v Too tired to make a better post. I ended up accidentally taking my sleep meds instead of my other medicine. I'm going to bed now [haha, it's 7:00 PM.] "...Will you take your place with me?" ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

" 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! " [ Shimmerkit shivered from head to tail- not noticably, but still, it chilled her. To have openly challenged the leader?! It was so foreign, yet so familiar... Shimmerkit blinked, blowing out a shaky breath. Her silver eyes looked up to meet the NightClan leader's own violet eyes with a determined look, but with nothing near as passionate as what had been seen before. ]
"Uh.... Um... Well," Shimmerkit stuttered, back to her own kit self, "I've been thinking... What if instead of using her back legs to propel herself, what if she rolled or something? I mean, it would be hard for hunting, but for fighting she could use her weight to throw her opponent off balance and then attack with her front? At least it's something," Shimmerkit replied sheepishly, ducking her head down low.
[ Now the Clan was just staring at her, and some hushed whispers were heard in the back. Shimmerkit flattened her ears and stared at her paws, wincing every time she heard the vaguest mention of her name. Now surely she would be hated. But, in spite of everything that was going on, Shimmerkit oddly felt a twinge of fullfillment- like something that had been unknowingly nagging at her had finally been done. Like the strange fierce protectiveness that she felt whenever Silentkit- or Guardianpaw, for that matter- was in danger. It was almost like a funny maternal instinct, telling her to protect these cats at all costs. It just felt funny. And then there were those battle moves that came so naturally to her! It was just so confusing! ] 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!

Despite how much love I've shown
and the comfort in your eyes I've known...  ❁ Puresun ❁If you die, I'm all alone
despite the souls that fill my home
o o o
The only thing I need is you
but if I tell, what will you do?
I cannot help you
I will not leave you
You cannot hear me
You will not love...═══════════════════════
(( I thought Lavenderstar already offered to SIlentkit to be sent to the order? SO confused ;; ))
[I watched the meeting with a locked jaw, eyes weary. I wanted to say something, but I was too afraid. Why? I was considered important enough to be here.
But sitting there, staring at my mother, I just couldn't bring myself to want to help. The Phantom was running through my mind-as well as everything she accused me of. I couldn't believe how much anger and distrust I felt for her, and it only increased when she decided to move on without asking my opinion.
It was my fault for not saying anything, but the fact that she didn't notice was bad enough.
I can't go on like this, I thought. It's time. I have to confess soon...
I watched as Shimmerkit was called forth, a small smile playing on my muzzle, but I was shocked when she denied it. I listened carefully, my heart twisting for her-and Silentkit.]
"Shimmerkit, it can't be helped," I mowed strongly, standing. "Don't you think Lavenderstar knows that? We didn't do this to her to make her feel unwanted or unappreciated, but what more can we do? She cannot fight, Shimmerkit, and you know it. It's unfair to act like we've done any less than the utmost that we can do! I love Silentkit just like any other warrior does, and I'd love to see her be happy in the best way possible.
What more can we do? I think Silentkit's spirit is stronger than any warrior here, but her body isn't. I believe she can overcome it, but I don't believe you should be standing there and accusing us of not caring, or trying. Do you understand? This is something we've known and thought about for a long time, so causing more pain and confusion over it isn't helping anyone!"
[I stared strongly down at her, disappointment and confusion in my eyes. She had spoken as Leopardstorm would have, but it was not the same. Just because Leopardstorm was once a mighty warrior did not mean she was now. She had to understand she was not the same anymore-she was a kit again, and it was likely she had just ruffled everyone's feathers.]
"Look, it's wonderful that you care for her so much, but now is not the time to be saying she should be an apprentice," I sighed. "Brightspirit's eye may have been crippled, but she had her legs. And I've heard of stories of warriors with three legs. But Silentkit's only got two-and you know full well what that means!
So why don't we ask her what she thinks?" I asked, eyes hardening. "We're all walking around acting like we can speak for her when she's never had a say in it. So why not? Why don't we ask Silentkit for once what she thinks of the matter, since you've brought it up?"
[My tail lashed, an angry expression on my face.]
"We're acting like she has no ears, too! She can hear us-she could hear us all along-and I think she has more than a right to speak right now, if anyone else does!"
═══════════════════════ ...six of sin with you now roam
will you guide them to their home?
I can only pray you do
before I confess it all.
Let me keep one thing near;
the heart that bonds us, my dear
o o o
For if I sleep at end of day
I find your shadow fades away ...I cannot sleep in fear of how
the darkness holds two shadows now.
