Where is Everyone? ((Open)) ((Message from StarClan))

[~.:Firefeather:.~]

A dark mist hung over the gathering island as Dapplepaw raced to find her mentor and the others of her clan. The air tasted of blood a fear, but yet there were no signs of a battle. Dapplepaw sat down and looked towards the sky and mumbled ,"Starclan... Where are you? Where is my clan? We...We trusted you," Four Stary Figures Appeared to Dapplepaw, forming a circle around her. They sat in silence, and appeared to be looking off into the distance. "W-Whats Happening? Who are you?" meowed DapplePaw. suddenly from out of the dark mist, appeared four queens They Sat Next to the stary figures and looked at DapplePaw. Another stary figure appeared, It was Hawkfeather, her mentor. DapplePaw cried out,"Hawkfeather! Please tell me whats happening! Your can't be dead! EVERYONE CAN'T BE DEAD!" Hawkfeather looked at the other stary cats and nodded,they all got up and padded away, leaving the queens behind. Hawkfeather then turned to Dapplepaw.


Dapplepaw Shot up out of her nest,her heart was pounding so hard that it made his ears hurt and her fur stick straight up. "Was that a Message from StarClan?" She muttered to herself. She looked around the small cave to see if Hawkfeather had returned from the battle, but as she thought, he was still gone. She tasted the air to see if she could sense any other cats near by that had left for the batter, but once again nothing.

Dapplepaw padded her way out to the main part of the camp to see if anyone that stayed behind was awake yet from their nightly slumber. But still, nothing, no one was around. Dapplepaw started to panic so she let out a cry to see if she would get a response. yet again nothing, not a cat in sight.

Leopardstorm sat in the middle of the camp, her head down. Her shoulders fell, with a sigh. Her ears twitched before they fell to. She laid down and flopped her head on her paws. Her ears twitched on the sound of someone moving behind her she turned to see Dapplepaw. ”Everyone is dead Dapplepaw” she said cruelly before turning away again. She shook her head before sitting up and sighed. ”The only cats to live are the ones in camp, the battle field was bloodly Dapplepaw”

[~.:Firefeather:.~]

Dapplepaw looked at Leopardstorm in disbelief for a moment, then she padded over and sat down next to the queen and mummbled ,"I know... Hawkfeather came to me in my dreams last night... Starclan had a message... I think it was StarClan... but it felt all wrong to me..."

She looked at the queen with great sadness ," S-So no one came back? Not even our leader?" She looked down at her paws, she knew what the answers was, but she just didn't want to accept it in her heart that it was true.

She tasted the air one final time in hope to catch a scent of the others, but it was stale. Hawkfeather...I miss you she thought to herself hoping that he would hear her.

[Midnightive]

Leopardstorm got to her paw, and shook the image of the battle ground out of her head. Before giving a faint smile to Dapplepaw. ” You had a dream from StarClan? Good that means they haven’t left us.” She sighed in relief. Before turning her head, ”What did you mean… wrong?” she echoed in confusion even sounded snappy.

She shook her head the once, ”I don’t know what happened, but the only thing to come back was me I couldn’t even save my mate” she growled in anger. She took a deep breath, and looked over at Dapplepaw. With a sigh she turned her head. ”I’ve given birth only one lived, after my battle with the tom who killed Coalfeather” she announced quietly.

Dapplepaw

Dapplepaw looked at Leopardstorm in a bewildered state. "You had your kits? Leopardstorm it was really careless of you to leave camp this close to kitting!"  Her ears felt hot with anger.  Then she started to think how horrible it must have been, seeing Coalfeather killed right in front of Leopardstorm's eyes, then kitting and losing the only things that still bond her with Coalfeather. Dapplepaw looked down at her paws, she felt ashamed for losing her temper like she did. She too had lost someone close to her, so she could only remember the pain of loss, and how it felt to lose a loved one. 


"I'm sorry... there has been so much death, its just upsets me that you lost your kits. Where is the remaining kit Leopardstorm? I probably should have a look at it to make sure everything is alright. Then I shall tell you about my dream." She purred with a little bit of hope.
' The last thing she need is to lose the last piece of Coalfeather she has'  Dapplepaw thought to herself.

[Midnightive]

A small smile came to Leopardstorms face as she thought about her kit. She got to her paws, and walked to the nursery. She flicked her tail towards a small fluffy black kitten. Her eyes softened slightly at a kitten she turned.

" So what did star clan say?" she asked quietly. Her eyes widened before looked away. "anything about how we will rebuild?"

[~.:Firefeather:.~]

Dapplepaw

Dapplepaw padded over to the fluffy black kitten, She nudged it very carefully to begin examining the little bundle of fur.
Every thing seemed to be okay with the kit, the only thing that she noticed is that it was shivering, because of the breeze coming into the nursery. 

"Your kit seems healthy. He seems to be a little chilly, but that because of this fox dung of a nursery we have. Who's Fur-brained idea was it to have the nursery here?" She looked up at Leopardstorm. Dapplepaw noticed she was getting nervous to know what StarClan had to say.


"In my dream... I was at the gathering Island, there was no sign of battle but I could taste blood and fear. Then the four leaders of the clans came and sat around me, they where stary.... They didn't say anything to me, they just looked into the mist. Usually its clear for my Starclan Visions, but this time it wasn't at all... Then Four Queens came our of the mist and touched noses with the leaders... The leaders got up and padded into the mist. Then Hawkfeather came and sat next to me... he was also stary... He whispered to me ' you can only survive with a queen's motherly guidance' I'm not sure what he ment by this"

Dapplepaw looked down at her paws, she felt bad for not being able to understand her starclan dreams yet.

Sparrowpaw padded into the camp, two mice hanging from his small jaws. The brown and white apprentice still had a mouse, a vole, and a thrush that he buried out in the forest. It had been a good haul, but not unusual for being out hunting all day. He hadn't eaten yet himself and the scent of the mice made his mouth water up until he noticed the two she-cats in the camp. He had heard other cats talking near the boarders. Was the clan really gone? Even if it was, he had to uphold the warrior code, and that meant giving up the mice.

The little tom padded over to them in his usual way. With the way he walked, it was almost as if he was always stalking, but he liked it that way. "Uhm...Hrmf." Sparrowpaw dropped the mice in front of the she-cats. "I've got more too, so eat up." The brown and white apprentice's eyes shown with pride even if he kept a straight face. "There's still a vole, a thrush, and another mouse for me to go get."

Sparrowpaw dashed out of the camp, and in two more trips had all of the fresh kill he'd caught in the fresh-kill pile. Seeing as Sparrowpaw was the size of the thrush, or vice versa, it was an impressive catch. In all reality, he'd gotten lucky that the thing's wing had already been broken some how and didn't even have to stalk it since it couldn't fly, but he wouldn't tell them that.

All at once, Sparrowpaw noticed the new kit and it took a moment of him blinking at it to realize that there was a new litter in the camp. "Wow, that's so great. Is it a boy or girl? What're you gonna call it?"

[Midnightive]

Leopardstorm looked at the black bull of fluff that was her kit and went over and gave it a few licks. She smiled slightly, it looks just like Coalfeather. So she looked up and nodded, ”I think he’ll be called Coalkit, in memory of my mate” she said giving it a lick. She shook her head and looked at the fresh kill that Sparrowpaw had bought in. Thank you” her tail flicked.

Scooting Coalkit next to a queen to look after, and watch him get milk. Made her smile, she stepped out and sighed. ”I guess… we carry on like normal? We must”

"Coalkit? That's a cool name." The small apprentice nodded, eyes shining brightly from the thanks. "Any time. I've gotta step up since I'm the only apprentice!" As somber as the statement seemed, it was stated in a light-hearted way and it became obvious that Sparrowpaw, being only 6 moons old, was too young to really understand what was happening. He knew that there was a lot of bad, but he focused on the good and the chances to prove himself.

The short-legged gray-brown and white tom was looking between Leopardstorm and Speckledpaw. "Uhm, Leopardstorm? Are you gonna be leader?" It may have seemed like an out there question, but Sparrowpaw was sure that Leopardstorm was the only cat who could. "I mean, I'm just an apprentice, and you're the only queen who's kits are here. I was just thinking that, maybe, you would be the leader."

[Midnightive]

Leopardstorm looked at her kitten and looked back up at Sparrowpaw. Her leader? She was just a pregnant quick this morning. She took a deep breath. "I will hold a clan meeting, I will tell them the horror we've seen and then we will pick whose leader it will only be fair" she sighed.

This felt weird to Leopardstorm normally a sharp tonged grumpy she-cat. But she didn't see nor feel that this was the time or place.

Dapplepaw

Dapplepaw approached Leopardstorm ," I can watched Coalkit while you make the announcement if you want? He needs a little more looking after just incase there is something wrong that I'm missing," 

Dapplepaw picked up Coalkit and brought her closer to her. The small Kit squeaked with surprise. Dapplepaw licked its head to try to comfort the little tom, but he kept squirming and making noise. 'Colic ' Thought Dapplepaw 'I have just the thing for you little one.'

Dapplepaw looked up at Leopardstorm ," If that's alright with you of course." she mewed.

Dapplepaw looked around the clearing to see the damage that has been done to her clan. She felt so much older now that there was nothing but kittens and apprentices running around. Just to think she was basically in charge of them when they where hurting.

Dovefeather padded into the camp with a squirrel and a mouse in her jaws. She dropped them on the fresh kill pile and padded to the center of the camp. The only scents that seemed to drift into her nose were the scents of 3 cats and a kit. That couldn't be right could it? Then she remembered that there was a battle going on.

At the thought of a battle she didn't feel so hungry anymore. Prey was running well and at least starvation was out of the question. She looked toward Leopardstorm and saw the little black kit they had called Coalkit. She admired his fluffy coat and the gleam in his eye when his mother looked at him. Shaking her head she hadn't realized she was purring. How embarassing it would be if some cat had noticed.

She bent her head back in a quick grooming session to clear the leaves and moss she might have picked up in her soft colored pelt while she was hunting. The thought of battle was still in her head and made her fur fluff up and impossible to groom. She heaved a sigh and stared down at her paws, her eyes gleaming in worry and frustration.

[~.:Firefeather:.~]

Dapplepaw

Noticing that Dovefeather had returned Dapplepaw padded over to Her, with Coalkit dangling from her jaws. The small kit cried as he was being gently tossed around from side to side. Dapplepaw Set him down by Dovefeathers paws and meowed ," Can you watch our newest member of ThunderClan for a bit? I need to go grab a few herbs for this little ball of fur, but he's almost to large for me to carry around." 

Dapplepaw didn't wait for a response from Dovefeather and began to pad off to the Medicine Cat Den.

Screefang limped into camp with a mouse. Mice were about the only thing she could catch with her injured leg.
