`` Camp {Cipherclan}

[lily ♫]

She let out a pathetic cough as she looked upwards to the tom that now crouched near her. "Hello, Brittlenimbus. Horrid, isn't it?" Her voice had dropped into a whisper as she spoke the last sentence, but Foxkiss knew that he would be able to hear her. With a half of a moment to think, the blue-eyed she-cat realized that she had no real friends. Eyes darkening, she looked back towards Brittlenimbus, and sighed. Was just speaking to other cats considered being friendly or just plain creepy? Suddenly, she felt very alone in the world, but she knew it would not be for long. Foxkiss would find some tom, and she would have many litters of kits. Confidence was all she needed, and she thought she had fairly good looks. Would that be enough?

Junglescreech? A loud meow from his now former mentor, directed his attention to her. Thunderpaw glanced sorrowfully in Whimsysky's direction, and padded over towards her, quickly. Purring softly, he muttered, "Whimsysky... I don't know how these three moons of training have been, but I am very happy to have been your apprentice, and I do hope that I made you proud. I will never forget my true mentor."
Thunderpaw shot a dark glance in the direction of the she-cat playful tom. A snort of disgust left Thunderpaw as he rubbed up against Whimsysky. Was this some sick way of integrating the Clans? By tearing apprentice and mentor apart?
Thunderpaw's yellow orbs blazed with determination. He would make this cat's life shorter, causing him stress and rejecting him in as many ways possible.
Still purring to his mentor, he growled out loudly, "Junglescreech? Get over here." Rubbing his soft, calico fur up against Whimsysky, he shot one last soft glance before asking, "Will I still be able to see you around camp, Whimsysky? Or maybe even when I become a warrior... We can hunt together?"

Not wanting to wait for a reply, Thunderpaw turned his small body around, tail hanging lowly, ears laid back, and a look of determination and kill.


ooc;;
Lynxieh, Junglescreech is in for the ride of his life. 8'3 Probably end up with gray hairs out of this.

[rowan]

Nightpelt rose to his paws and walked towards where his voice was being called. He wondered what it would be like, to have a new apprentice. He hadn't had Rabbitpaw for long, but maybe with Falconpaw they may get along better. He stopped when he reached the apprentice that was sat down. He looked older, maybe mos of his training had already passed him by. Oh well.
"Hello Falconpaw," he said quietly.

[raid]

Perilstar was done announcing anything as far as he could tell. But maybe he should clarify the den situation, then again he was sure there would be questions later and he could answer that then. "Any questions, find myself or Vividstar." He let his tail brush lightly against the she-cat beside him and said a few soft words. "I shall be going now. Winterpaw does need trained, or a head start at least. If you need help around here....find Twistersoul. He'll probably chat up a she-cat like you instead of pushing you away. That is a good thing around here at the moment." He had to keep up the kind tom act around Vividstar. At least for awhile anyways. Before she found herself in too deep and that she couldn't get out. There was already a slight plan for that. He jumped from the branch, pushing through cats until he found a she-cat that might classify as a "Winterpaw". "Winterpaw." He mewed a simply word. It was a statement, not a question. "We'll head out to the territory, it will be a long journey and you will survive. " Looking around at the other cats he wanted a few old Celestialclanners to be with some of the Tempestclan warriors. They would split up. Explore the different parts of the territory. They had much ground to cover now. "Nettlescreech, Divinemoon, Bengalshriek Rabbitpaw, Nightpelt, and Falconpaw. Head on out to the old Celestialclan territory. Catch what you can. You know that there will be hungry cats. Make a quick trip of it. You're going the longest distance." He let his voice raise to call out the cats and instruct them where they should head. He was sure to keep a two - two ratio between the groups. "Myself, Winterpaw, Junglescreech, Thunderpaw, Ravensecret, and Blitzpaw...we'll head on over through our territory." With that the tom quickly made his way towards the exit, let's see these cats keep up.

-=-Perilstar to The Birch & Meadow Terra.-=-


-------------------

Blitzpaw could of let his mentor get to him. But he didn't. The young tom was almost bigger than his mentor and he was pretty sure he had a more muscle on him too. Though first impressions did not tell much about a cat, and Blitzpaw knew somewhere on this tom there was a breaking point. "You assume? So you're making an ass out of you and me? " The young tom's remark was an old one. Tempestclan cats were used to it though he could only smirk and grin at the tone of his voice he had used. "Quit assuming you Celestialclan cat. You're no longer in your fru fru land of rainbows and cat toys. Welcome to the real life, welcome to the wilderness." His voice was sarcasm and smeared with some sort of hate. Eyeballing his mentor his faded green eyes glimmered with satisfaction. And then he heard Perilstar's words. "Let the fun begin...." He mewed softly smiling as he did so. He flicked his tail in dismissal to his mentor, quickly striding over to where his leader was exiting camp.

Divinemoon was excited to find herself with the tom she had learned so little about. It was almost as if she was meant to be beside him though she knew this was already wrong. Moving into a new life she would need new friends, but friends this quickly was too good to be true. Her clan mates would of course disapprove, at least those still stuck in Celestialclan life. She was glad they were heading to her own territory, time to show off. "Well, you coming?" She mewed playfully, heading for the entrance.

_+_Divinemoon to Steep Forest Terra_+_

[MiNTY♥]

Vividstar nodded to Perilstar and touched her nose to his ear for a second. It looked like she was in charge of all these cats while Perilstar was away, they had each to select a deputy to take their place considering the last ones were now walking with Starclan. she hoped Breakingdawn was not walking with Starclan and that she was safe. "If anyone sees Breakingdawn, a missing Cipherclan she-cat, then bring her back!" She called out just before cats began to gather together and leave. Especially those returning to the old Celestialclan territory. She trusted that Nettlescrech, Divinemoon and Falconpaw would be eager to find their clan mate and friend. No doubt she would not be speaking to Twistersoul. She watched as Perilstar left before she jumped down from the branch and slipped through the thinning crowd. They had been discussing dens before the two clans had merged and she knew where they all were. The same dens as usual would remain in the tree, but the nursery had been made a little bigger than usual. Aquasplash would have her den outside the tree and Silentstream would remain where it had always been. There would be the warriors den, the elders den and the apprentices den inside the tree, but there would also be an apprentice's den and a warrior's den outside the tree, along with Aquasplash's den, and her own den. Warriors and apprentices mixing their sleeping arrangements would be recommended, but the clan could sort that out themselves as they began to make friends. She sat in the center of the clearing to wait and see who would decide to ask her questions, or if they would all just go back to their den's while Perilstar was out.

-----

As Perilstar spoke to her for the first time in his life, it was a sort of threat he snapped at her. Would he ever dream of speaking to Vividstar in the same tone he had used to speak to her? A shiver ran down her spine as she braced herself to follow Perilstar. She should be ok, as she had been resting the best part of the day, especially with a missing mentor, Breakingdawn. Earlier she had prayed to Starclan that the missing tabby she-cat would be found, but really there was nothing she could do for her now, of course Breakingdawn would be able to look after herself. Yet, she could not help but miss her former mentor and wonder if she would be ok out there. She had been busy day dreaming she had not noticed as Perilstar had begun to move away, but luckily he had not gotten very far, she was the first to dash after him. This would be a long day.

--> Winterpaw to the Birch & Meadow Terra.

Nettlescreech heard his name being called, as it would appear he would be returning to familiar territory sooner than he had first expected. He was grateful for the slight comfort he would seek from there, and of course he would do his best to look for Breakingdawn, but somehow he doubted she would be found. In fact, it would not surprised him is she had fled the clan by choice, maybe she had already known what would happen at the gathering? He turned again to look at Rabbitpaw. "Well let's go then." He meowed. He would have to get used to using a harsher tone, yet he was afraid to start in one way, but Rabbitpaw would find out how harsh he could be if he annoyed him. His darker eye glistened cunningly, where as his paler eye was slightly round with a light concern. Turning he began to head out of camp with the rest of his patrol, he knew exactly where to find his old territory.

--> Nettlescreech to Steep Forest Terra.

Bengalshriek tossed his head high in the air upon hearing his name being called. He snorted lightly as he heard the list. No doubt he would be the most experienced along them, and it would give him time with Divinemoon, it seemed since it had been announced that the two clans would merge they had not left each others side. This of course for the amber tinted Bengal tom, was no problem at all. The more time spent around pretty she-cat, the better. "You heard Perilstar, get a move on!" He hissed to the others that would be attending, but his head was turned away from Divinemoon as he said this. How soft exactly was she? Would she care for how he really was? As Nettlescreech took off and Divinemoon began to pad after him, he had begun to follow too, but he caught Divinemoon's eye as she turned to him. Her playful tone suggested she might not be ready for his more violent and Tempestclan-like side. "Of course." He answered with a small grin.

--> Bengalshriek to Steep Forest Terra.

Olivinesilk gritted her teeth. So, the precious little Breakingdawn was missing. A low growl left her maw. Her main worry about the clans merging had been that one she-cat, well she wasn't so much as a worry, just a pain on the butt who did not deserve to be around, any longer. Now of course, as it turned out she was missing, oh what a shame. She hoped that the patrol did not find her, and she would not return, and she would never have to lay her eyes on the tabby she-cat with yellow orbs, ever, again. She watched as the patrols left and the clearing of the tree became more deserted. Maybe now she could actually have some space to breathe. Stupid new cats polluting her air. Though of course, was there any reason for her to hate Celestialclan now that stupid little Breakingdawn was gone? A rush of warm air rushed out of her nose. Time for her to go back to bed. Her light green orbs glistened in the faint light as she elegantly climbed back up to the warriors den in the tree, she would be annoyed if that den started to smell of Celestialclan. More work would have to be done as they had two territory's to patrol now. Curling up in her nest, she put her head gently down on her paws.

-----

Sombersnow opened her maw to let out a hiss. Well there was one good thing that had come of this, she no longer had that mouse brained apprentice Shimmerpaw. She sighed softly. Should she ever see the day when she came upon a suitable apprentice? Ah well Perilstar had now left camp, now she could begin her quest to leave the Celestialclan cats living in fear. She let out a chuckle and padded over to Vividstar, approaching the she-cat from behind. She brushed past her, their fur touching for a moment while her shoulder pressed into the she-cat. Turning on her, she put her tail under the she-cats chin and pushed it up slightly, before snatching her tail back. "Look what Perilstar brought in, eh?" She purred roughly. "So what are the sleeping arrangements then?" She asked. She was at least twice as old as the she-cat standing before her who claimed to be a leader, yet she was not old enough to be any sort of elder yet, she was only 51 moons after all! If she was not surrounded by such mouse brained cats they may also have noticed the similar traits the two she-cats shared, but personality wise they were nothing alike. It was hard to believe as a kit, Vividstar had suckled from her, or she had ever looked at the she-cat with any sort of love. She hated her. No blood they shared could even change that.

[cat]

OOC: Ooooh boy. His breaking point won't be for awhile, I'm afraid. Did I mention he's quite patient? >

Bic: As the young tom spoke, his voice full of sarcasm and sass, it was all Ravensecret could do not to laugh. Oh, so he had a cocky one, did he? True, he didn't often meet this in his own clan, but he had seen the typical swagger of a TempestClan. This cat, this Blitzpaw showed all the signs of becoming one of those cats. He would, as he had in the past, deal with this tom. A small smirk appeared on his maw as the tom began to swagger away, though it vanished in an instant. Surely this apprentice did not think he could decide everything. Ravensecret had to admit slight disappointment at this discovery.
Rolling his eyes, the black tom padded after his apprentice, keeping his head and tail up to show all that this first meeting had not bothered him in the least. In fact, it was just the starting of a game. So Blitzpaw thought he could shake the warrior, force him to a breaking point? I'd like to see him try. Ravensecret thought, giving his fluffy tail a flick as he left the clearing.
-Ravensecret to the Birch and Meadow Terra-

Whimsysky's eyes nearly filled with tears as she listened to her app-no, former apprentice speak before turning away. She couldn't believe this was happening. First she had lost her clan, then her home, and now her first apprentice. Oh yes, they'd all still be around, but they wouldn't be the same. Flicking one ear, the she-cat rose to her full hight. "Of course you've made me proud Thunderpaw. My only regret is that I won't get to finish your training with you. Of course you'll see me around, and of course we can hunt together, whether as warrior and apprentice or friends. You truly are a friend Thunderpaw." The strange she-cat meowed. Then, lowering her voice as she gave him a last playful cuff to the ear, she whispered, "Give him all you've got Thunderpaw. Don't forget to throw in a little of that attitude either."

Brittlenimbus turned his shadowed gaze onto Foxkiss, wondering who exactly this she-cat was. He had seen her before, but hadn't really spoken to her much. Yes, they were both warriors, he knew that. But of what she really thought or liked.....nothing much would come to mind. "I know Foxkiss. I don't want to be here anymore than you do." He meowed, standing up to move closer to the she-cat. Perhaps, in this time of darkness, new friendships could be made. It was always possible. Then, looking around, he dropped his voice even lower. "I know they say that breaking apart the bond between apprentice and mentor and switching them is good, but I fail to see what 'good' will come of it. Wouldn't it just make tensions worse?"

Turning his head as the cat approached, Rabbitpaw let his gaze travel over Nettlescreech, still looking rather bored. It was bad enough to have Nightpelt as a mentor, but now a former Celestial cat?! This was not something that Rabbitpaw had wanted in this new plan for power, and therefore was already resenting it. "Yes, I'm Rabbitpaw." He stated, voice dull. Standing up, the tom sighed. Was he really going to have to deal with this cat? Still lost in thoughts, the young apprentice headed toward the camp entrance, remembering that he was on the partol that was just starting.
-Rabbitpaw to Steep Forest Terra-

OOc: Sorry, missed that fact. XD

[cedarclaw]

Falconpaw flicked his ears as he heard a voice sound behind him. It must have been his new mentor, Nightpelt. Looking friendly as he possibly could, the tom spun around, facing his new mentor. It was a tom, and Falconpaw nodded. "Hello there," the tom purred warmly. 'Let's just get this over with,' thought the tom to himself, closing his eyes and opening them again, as he tried to shake away the small amount of nerves that had situated comfortably in his stomach, making their way to his head.

[titan]

Thunderpaw growled in happiness as he stared back at Whimsysky with determination. Flicking his calico tail in the direction of the territory, he walked towards it. Glancing back at Whimsysky, he smiled. He was glad he had made her proud, and now his attitude would come in handy.

-Thunderpaw to territory-

ooc;;
sorry, short post. :c uhh. Lynx? Wanna post with Thunderpaw? XD

[MiNTY♥]

ooc;; Cat, Rabbitpaw is going out on patrol.

Vividstar narrowed her eyes at the rough muscular she-cat who thought she could get away with bossing her around. Getting to her feet the she-cat thrust her head forward so she was eye to eye with Sombersnow. "You may sleep where you always sleep, it's always older cats who worry about where they sleep is it not?" She sneered. Turning away from Sombersnow she was oblivious to the thoughts running through the other she-cats head. Looking around, now that the crowd had thinned more, she found Aquasplash and Citrusflower. She padded quickly over to them to speak with Aquasplash. "Let me show you where your den is." He meowed, she rested her tail on Citrusflowers shoulder and half woke the she-cat to guide her the medicine cats den. Leading the two she-cats just outside the tree, she showed them into the first den to their left. "This will be your den and your den only, Aquasplash." She meowed and dipped her head before leaving and returning to the tree, to sit.

----

Citrusflower drowsily got to her paws and stumbled along, leaning on Vividstar. She was unaware of her surroundings as she stumbled along on her clumsy paws. She paused for a moment to sneeze as he felt a light breeze tickle her pelt, before she was back in another den, sheltered and warm. As much as Vividstar tried to help her, she toppled over onto her side, almost flattening Vividstar, and she couldn't even open her maw to say sorry, the most she could manage would be a soft croak, either that or she would just end up choking. Slowly her eyes began to close over again, as she once again fell asleep. Little did anyone know she would not return from her slumber. Gradually her breathing began to slow, her heart beat softened, until she was gone.

Ghoststar began to dance through the stars, towards their new arrival. "Citrusflower." She spoke softly. It was a moment before anything else was said, Citrusflower was so curious, looking all around her, she was fairly happy, until she saw her paws, as transparent as stars. "Am I dead, Ghoststar?" Citrusflower asked. Ghoststar frowned lightly as she stepped towards the ginger and white, now silver, she-cat. "I am afraid Vividstar's move was too much for you, on top of your illness, I am so sorry Citrusflower, but you will no longer walk among your fellow clan mates, you are in Starclan now, welcome." She spoke, as she did a few other cats appeared behind her, among them were Cloudpatch, Moonparody, and Lightningstrike, Citrusflower's mate, as long as some of the she-cats dead kits. "I am afraid it is only going to get worse down there, I am sure Winterpaw will be strong, she knows you will be watching." Meowed Ghoststar softly. It was not long before Citrusflower rushed to be with her mate and family, turning her head she looked down upon 'Cipherclan'. A silver tear rolled down her star-struck pelt. Vividstar had no idea what she had done, or what would happen. She only hoped that the she-cat would be able to admit her wrongs. Wrapping her tail around her paws she narrowed her eyes at Sombersnow.

----

Sombersnow snorted at this and threw her head back to laugh. "Well why aren't you sleeping in the apprentices den? Oh wait, make that the nursery!" She yowled after Vividstar. She had to admit, that wasn't a bad come back for a delicate little she-cat like Vividstar, but of course, as always, hers was so much better. She growled as the she-cat ignored her and flicked her tail with arrogance. "Hey, what do you think? Any space in the nursery for Vividkit?" She called out to those in camp. She laughed to herself and lay down, folding her paws beneath her, taking up a regal pose as she sat and watched the camp. She should be leader, there were better ways to gain power than to fall in love with an air head of a she-cat.

[thymespeckle]

The pretty she-cat walked into the new camp, her body quivering. Why was this happening? Her yellow orbs searched frantically for someone from her old Clan, Tealtide in particular. The tom had become a farily close friend of hers, though she wished he might e more one day. But no, she had learned to take things slowly from now on. The tabby she cat sat with teh other cats as her leader, or leaders now, leapt up into the tree to speak to the Clan. She was so used to living underground, now she woul have to live above ground! This was crazy.

Then her eyes caught a flash of familair fur and a intoxicating smell hit her nose. Tealride. Hr heart swelled as she spotted the tom. who looked very sleepy indeed. She padded nervously over to him. "Tealtide?" she whispered softly to him, sitting down beside him softly, tail curling around her paws. "Are you alright? Tell me what you think of all this, I--well I don't like it atall." she murmmered, licking his ear softly.

[cedarclaw]

The tom heard Swiftstep approaching, and he sneezed, looking up. "Hello," meowed Tealtide quietly. She noticed he wasn't feeling right, hmm. And she also asked how he felt about this merge. He had a lot to say, but the tom didn't really know what to say, and he was too tired, barely able to keep his eyes open. "I - it's different," croaked the tom, nodding weakly.

[rowan]

Nightpelt looked curiously at his new apprentice, he did not beleive the kind act he was putting on. He probably thought Nightpelt was likethe rest, he would like to prove that wrong to him but for now they had to go.
"Well," He muttered nervously, "I - I guess we have to go..."
He looked at his aprentice once more, then turned and walked out of camp.

--to terra--

Aquasplash followed Vividstar silently and nodded when she was spoke to. She felt like screaming inside. This was not right! She didn't care where she was going to sleep! Well, she actually dod. She wanted to be in her old den, with her herbs. The dark brown surfaces around her. Dirt floor, walls ceiling... Not this. A tree. Great Starclan, they were cats not squirells!
She padded back outside, not wishing to stay in her 'den. She looked over and one cat in particular caught her eye, Citrusflower! At first she was sleeping, Aquasplash could see the faint rise and fall of her side. But the movement became less and less obvious. No! She would have survived if not for the move to Tempests Camp. It was all the leaders fault!
Aquasplash laid down beside Citrusflower and genly licked her flank, "No more suffering, peace in Starclan,"
If only she had found the borage leaves yesterday! Citrusflower would be with her now.
For the moment her angery was replaced with sadness, but that could change at any minute.

[thymespeckle]

Swiftstep nodded, and blinked as the tom sneezed loudly. She pressed her small nose into his flank, it was a bit warm. "I know." she mnodded slowly, unsure what to say next. "Are you feelin ok? I think yo umight have a temperature, most likley because your so tierd." she mewed soothingly. "Come on we should rest." she purred sadly, eyes looking around for a den place near the ground.

ooc; Awww she luffs him!

[cedarclaw]

Falconpaw just nodded, and picked himself up onto four paws. He stared into the sky, his green hues shining. What would his first training session be like with his new mentor? He hoped his mentor knew what he was doing. He wanted to become a warrior soon. He liked the name Falconpelt. He'd think more about names as their training progressed, though. Shaking himself, the tom made his way closer to Nightpelt, nodding. "Where are we off to?" asked the young male, his eyes wide, curious, and a little apprehensive. He pawed at the ground with a mixture of anxiousness and excitement. He wondered if his training session would be any fun, or if they were just going for a run to take a look at the merged territories.

--

Tealtide opened his mouth, but a sneeze came out. "But I was -" he was cut off by his friend wanting to find a den? Wasn't the warriors den the den he should be in? Well, technically the medicine cat's den, but.. "I wanted to go to the medicine cats den," meowed the tom, steeping back, sneezing again. He hated being sick, and he definitely didn't want to risk allowing other cats to become sick. Now that their clan was so big, the sickness could spread easily and infect many more cats. Unless he wasn't sick at all. He sighed unhappily. He just wanted to be better, he didn't want to come off mean or anything. He hoped he wasn't upsetting Swiftstep because that was going completely against what he was actually planning. He wanted to be friends with the she-cat. He didn't want to upset her, certainly not.

[lily ♫]

The light ginger tabby let out a soft snort. "They want all of our ties to each other to fall apart. Not like I really have any. Friends, that is." Foxkiss replied to Brittlenimbus' comments. She agreed with him ten-fold, and she no longer had respect for Vividstar. It wasn't like she had ever done anything great. Ghoststar had not chosen her deputy and successor wisely. Half of her wanted to become a rogue or join a different Clan to escape this anarchy, but something made her feel that she had to stay. A single sigh slipped through the grimace upon her face. Suddenly the urge to stand and not appear so lazy rushed through her, and she stood next to Brittlenimbus. "Our name is utterly mouse-brained, too. CipherClan." One more snort came from her, and then she let out a giggle at how she was responding to all of this. "I handle things so strangely." Eyes wandering back at the partially tabby tom, she held his multi-colored gaze and hoped he would carry on with the conversation.
