Snowwhisper - Warrior - he/him - Location: Coniferous Forest ⤏ CampHe followed the other tom, catching up to walk along side him. They hadn't been too far, just a couple places away from the camp. So, when they entered the camp, it wasn't a surprise to see cats waiting for them. Snowwhisper looked around, ao many hungry cats, but so little to eat. He gave a knowing look to Stormclaw, and slowly padded over to the freshkill pile, well what was left of it. He dropped his mice in, and stood tall. "Everyone, this is what we have for the moment. Any cats who would like to join us on another hunting patrol, meet us near the camp entrance!" He turned to look at Stormclaw. He knew they were both hungry now, but he didn't want to be selfish, and knew that the two toms would have to wait their turns to get their fill. Fadedpaw - MCA - she/they - Location: Medicine DenThey watched as the little apprentice left in search of food, looking up to Heatherstump. Their stomach rumbled much like Whitepaw. "Erm, Heatherstump, would it be alright if I got something to eat before we left?" Their eyes still shining at the prospect of paws on learning, and now pleading for the hunger in their belly to be quenched. Lostsoul - Outsider - he/him - Location: base of Highstones, heading NorthThe lonely tom had gathered the small amount of herbs he had into a bundle, it was the only worthwhile thing that he could bring with him. He had been traveling not too long now, alongside the Highstones, and on the other side of the thunderpath that bordered the ShadowClan swamp, it still in his vision. It pained him to leave behind the land that was his home, but he kept his eyes forward. He wanted to cover a lot of ground, and get something to eat before the sun went down and he'd have to find shelter for the night. |

Amberblaze - Warrior - She/they - Location: CampShe has paused at the apprentices words and muttered a quick no and apology. Before long Whitepaw had gone off, something else catching his attention. The words of Snowwhisper made her halt once again in her journey to speak with Applestar. "Shouldn't we wait for instructions from our leader?" Amberblaze's voice was unsteady as she spoke, hoping the tom would hear them. The phrase our leader had been particularly difficult to complete because they knew that for some cats Applestar wasn't really their leader. At least not before the message from Starclan. Her body was frozen, head low. While their words were intended to be noticed that didn't mean that she had to be. The early bonds were still forming between the cats, many still seeming to associate just with former clan mates, and the last thing they wanted to do was start a fight. |

Crowheart - Warrior - he/him - Location: Camp"And let cats continue to be hungry while we wait?" Crowheart muttered under his breath, glancing at Amberblaze. He padded over to the camp entrance, a little disappointed that the hunting patrol had brought back so little freshkill. He himself was very hungry, and the smell of the freshkill was mouthwatering. But he had to hunt first. ((Is Snowwhisper from ThunderClan or ShadowClan?)) |

Applestar - Leader - He/him - Location: CampAt first, it was just him, his thoughts, and his sunrise. There hadn't been another soul in sight, as camp was as still as the glassy lake water. But before the young tom could even process it all, their makeshift camp had sprung to life. Cats were in-and-out of the thrown-together medicine cat den like bees in a hive. Apprentices were already up and complaining about their empty stomachs, reminding Applestar of the day he used to have a metabolism. Before he could even come together with his deputies to issue patrols and orders, it seemed that warriors had already taken charge of what they wanted to do. ...Maybe it was a good thing, but he wasn't too thrilled about it. They didn't know the territory- they hadn't even been in their new home for 24 hours, and yet cats were already confidently wandering off. What if something was out there? What if they got lost, and nobody knew where to go to look for them? The airy ginger tom slowly shook his head from side to side. Granted, Applestar was very impulsive himself, but now...they needed unity more than anything else. They needed to be on the same level. He had noticed the uncertain glares from ShadowClan-to-ThunderClan and vice versa, and it was something that risked shaking their foundation at the core. If they couldn't keep themselves together, then they'd risk fragmenting and being picked off by StarClan-knows-what. But there he was, lost in his thoughts again. Applestar turned to the warriors who had taken charge into their own paws. "Please, wait for my instructions." The gentle-natured tom directed his attention to the insubordinate. His stomach twisted itself- where were his deputies? Would they wake soon? "We're on unfamiliar territory here, we cannot risk running off willy-nilly just for the sake of gluttony. I need a well-manned border patrol first to establish some boundaries. We don't know what's out there- we have to ensure our boundaries are understood. Otherwise, some hungry badger might sneak up on our hunting patrols while they aren't paying attention, or rampage into our half-pieced-together nursery while cats are out hunting rather than securing land." |

Snowwhisper - Warrior - he/him - Location: CampSnowwhisper glared at Crowheart for his comment, muttering "ShadowClan." Before he watched as Applestar came to the cats, scolding him and Stormclaw for leaving the camp without instruction. He lowered his head at the Leader's words, the feeling of guilt rising in his chest. Guilt, and a little bit of shame, he just wanted to do something helpful, useful. Snowwhisper retreated from the pile, coming to sit in the crowd that was gathering in front of Applestar. There didn't seem to be a set high rock or whatever they'd use to call meetings in this new land. "I apologize, Applestar. Everyone was hungry, and we just..." Snowwhisper stopped his words, shaking his head, he knew better than to make excuses to the leader. "I apologize." All my cats were ThunderClan |

Crowheart - Warrior - he/him - Location: CampCrowheart heard Applestar and glanced over at him. "Gluttony? You mean survival," he growled quietly, impatient to start hunting. To himself, he thought, Even if we do secure the land without trouble, we'd be too tired to hunt after that. His sharp yellow eyes locked onto Applestar and he huffed in annoyance, wishing Darkstar was still here to lead them. "You wouldn't want cats to continue starving even after leaving the Valley, would you?" he spoke, a little louder this time, "You were the one that led them here, after all." He watched as Snowwhisper apologized to Applestar. He himself didn't lower his head or anything, and just simply stood near the camp entrance. ((Okay, thank you)) |

Amberblaze - Warrior - She/they - Location: CampAmberblaze lowered her nose to the ground, Crowhearts words making her feel shameful for even speaking. Their tail curled around their feet as they sat on the ground. Their voice raised again, "What of the apprentices? Is it really safe to send them out on patrols when we don't know the area? Plus shelter. Should some cat or cats come together to find more supplies to better protect ourselves?" Her words came easier this time as she was speaking to a familiar face, Applestar, who had always been the leader she had known. As she spoke she rose her gaze to meet his to show their respect for the leader because her questions may have been perceived as disrespectful. |

Applestar - Leader - He/him - Location: CampHe gave a small nod to acknowledgement to the white-furred tom who apologized for his rash actions. Yet, he wasn't surprised that it was a ShadowClan cat attempting to give him the most trouble. He was expecting that. The tall ginger tom hummed softly at Crowheart's attempt to poke holes into his argument. "Yes, but what's the point of hunting if there's no cats to come back to, my friend? The clan was fed yesterday on our way down the Glade- I wouldn't call missing breakfast 'starving'. Seems a little extreme." The former ThunderClanner lightly tapped his tail against his paws, wondering how his father had previously lead ShadowClan. Were they all fed every morning? How could they have possibly accomplished that, when their home had been plagued with illness and sickened prey? "On the contrary, it was our ancestors who lead us here. I would've much rather taken us somewhere...warmer, if StarClan didn't decide to outright vanish. But our ancestors typically know best, and leaving our home was the better decision between moving or slowly dying of illness." His pricked triangular ears were then directed to Amberblaze as she questioned further orders. Ah- no, he didn't want apprentices running amuck in unknown territory, at least by themselves. "I really want to get this patrol done first. I can't have cats out hunting or looking for supplies until we know it's really safe to be out there. Once we have a border established and our territory on the all-clear, I do want a patrol to head out to get some supplies. We need these dens to be really enforced before nightfall- otherwise, we'll all be freezing again. And at the mercy of this land's predators." He hesitated to think for a moment. "...As for apprentices, our younger trainees should stay in camp to be safe. Once we get the all clear, they're welcomed to hunt, but only with their mentors around." |

Crowheart - Warrior - he/him - Location: Camp'My friend'? Crowheart narrowed his eyes distrustfully at Applestar. What was the former ThunderClan, now StormClan leader trying to do? The two Clans had merged only a quarter-moon ago and Crowheart definitely did not consider himself friends with any ThunderClan cat, much less the leader. "The patrol would be exhausted after scouting around. How would you expect them to hunt for the Clan after that?" Crowheart replied, his fur bristling a little. "And that's assuming we don't run into trouble while patrolling." |

Heatherstump - Medicine Cat - He/They - Location: Medicine Den -> Camp"Of course. Go ahead." He said, smiling gently at the apprentice. When he stepped into the clearing and glanced around, he immediately noticed the squabble going on between a Shadowclan warrior and Applestar. He frowned slightly, but didnt intervene. This was the leader's problem, not his. Plus, he knew Applestar could handle this on his own. HeatherStump made his way to the fresh kill pile with FadedPaw, he didnt pick any up though. He wasnt that hungry, he would leave the prey for cats who were. The medicine cat reached his head down to lick the stump of his leg, biting the skin slightly because of how itchy it was. He kept an eye on the group of warriors speaking with Applestar, just in case something went wrong. |
