Duskbright sniffed disapprovingly, and licked at a paw to rub on his twitching whiskers. "They're HazeClan. I bet they think they're better because their territory is warmer. Huff." he scoffed a small amount and let his tail thrash. Last Gathering had been a disaster. With clouds covering the moon as unsheathed claws got too close to bristling pelts, Nightstorm and Duskbright were forced to end the meeting and leaving the Rendezvous with tensions tapering thin. And then in the days after, some territory was lost to a border patrol skirmish.. The forest dwelling cats seemed perfectly content with shredding FroryClan if they got the chance.

His eyes caught on a large figure, ungracefully stepping out of the warrior's den, apparently limping. That wasn't reassuring. The harlequin could remember the days past when Polarfreeze had mentioned something or other about joint pains, and while Duskbright was never one to count out a warrior because of a simple inconvienence, he wondered if the tom would even be useful in battle.

"Polarfreeze." The tom barked, flicking his tail as a order for the lynx point to come over to the apothecary den. His fur prickled.

Cloudpaw - FC Apprentice - she/her - Location: App Den ⤏ Camp



She woke to a cool breeze rippling through her, despite her thick coat. It was obvious leafbare was upon the clan. She shook herself awake, shaking off sleep and, hopefully, the cold air. When she exited the den, she could hear obvious commotion coming from the medicine den. Duskbright and Mallowleaf awake and speaking to each other. Her mentor was preoccupied, so she figured she'd check out the freshkill pile. There was still plenty of prey, for now, but part of her worried as it wasn't as much as there was when she was a kit. Being born early in newleaf left an abundance of prey for her to grow up to, but now as the seasons changed to a cold she had never felt before, the prey dwindled.

She decided to settle for a small rat, curling up on the cool ground, and eating her meal.


Honeytree - HC Warrior - he/him - Location: Warriors Den ⤏ Camp



Honeytree had shook the morning dew off of his whiskers, the sound of the morning rainforest sent a feeling of calm through him. His stomach rumbled slightly, but he didn't feel like getting up quite yet. No one else seemed to be budging, and he preferred to curl back up. Besides, leafbare was coming, and it would be nice to get as much warm as possible.

He stayed in his nest until his stomach grumbled again. Begrudgingly he woke up, mumbling to himself as he headed straight to the freshkill pile. Honeytree turned his lip, it was getting low, but luckily there was enough for him to take without feeling guilt by taking food. He picked out a blue bird, small, with a red beak, a kingfisher, and he licked his lips. He found a spot, and tucked into himself as he began to eat his breakfast.

Mallowleaf, Froryclan Camp Clearing

They wince at how loud their leader voice is, shifting their glance over to the large tom hobbling out of his den. Mallowleafs fur stiffens as they notice once again how large the tom is. But Mallowleaf is an apothecary, and their duty weighs more than their fear. They approach Polarfreeze, who is probably already alerted to their presence via Duskbrights loud bark.  Poor guy, Mallowleaf can't help but think. Starclan forbid that Mallowleaf gets on Duskbrights bad side. Every joint in Mallowleafs body is tense, but they still find the determination to look up into the taller warriors eyes. "Are your legs okay? I can't help but notice you're not walkin' too well..." Mallowleaf might not take a lot of things seriously, but one of the things he does is his clanmates health. And Polarfreeze was now his clanmate.

Duskbright pays no mind to Mallowleaf's distaste for his loud tone. He lets the apothecary tend to the lynx point while he surveys the clearing, sensing that it'll be a good heartbeat before Mallowleaf is done fussing over Polarfreeze. He sets sights on Cloudpaw, this apprentice. She was picking at a rat, a decent morning breakfast, and although Duskbright was a bit cross that the she-cat was eating before even asking to go hunting, he thought better of scolding her. He cleared his throat to catch her attention, and flicked his tail for her to come over too. No harm in her joining along.

and another set of paws to take on this Hazecat if he pulls anything funny.

Cloudpaw - FC Apprentice - she/her - Location: Camp



Cloudpaw had been just about finished her meal when she heard a noise from the medicine den, it was Duskbright clearing his throat. She felt her face warm, as if she had been caught doing something wrong. She was eating without having been granted permission, and no one else was out eating. He waved his tail, indicating he wanted her to come over. Taking the last bite of her rat, she got up, and sheepishly made her way over. Is he going to scold me? She wondered a bit nervously as she reached him. "Good morning, Duskbright. Is, is there something I can help you with?" She kept her voice calm, trying to not give away her anxiousness. The eyes of the apothecary and Polarfreeze, the HazeClan cat, on her as she spoke didn't necessarily help.

Willowpaw

Willowpaw stood, shaking the dust from her blue-grey pelt as she padded towards the apothecary, wondering if there was anything she could do to help. Her pawsteps grew more uncertain as the large tom loomed over her, and she fought the urge to scamper back to the safety of the camp edge.

"Is there..anything I can do to do, uh, help?" She stammered, observing the new tom, though unable to meet his gaze. Despite her fears, she still wanted to help, and hoped that there was something she can do.

Mallowleaf jumps a little, not sensing the apprentice approaching him. They collect themself before giving their apprentice a reassuring smile. When Willowpaw first became their apprentice Mallowleaf was terrified, worried he couldn't properly mentor her because of his nose-blindness. But he still did his best to teach her.

"Of course ya can" they murmur before looking back up at Polarfreeze. From the toms posture it seemed to be some sort of joint issue; Mallowleaf still had a good amount of daisy leaves ready to be used. Maybe he could quiz her on that. "We should get ya to the medicine den" They mewl to the larger tom. "We're goin' out on a patrol and it won't do any good for ya to be in pain the whole time."

Willowpaw
The young apprentice dutifully followed behind, trying not to get distracted with the leaves blowing across camp, repressing the kit-like urge to chase them.
Mallowleaf turned to face her as they entered the den. "It seems Polarfreeze has some joint pain. What should we use to cure it?"
Willowpaw hesitated, swishing her tail uncertainly.  "Burdock?"
The older apothecary gave a mrow of amusement, "Close. With joint pain, we tend to use these daisy leaves over 'ere. Fortunately we've got more than enough to hopefully soothe his joints for the patrol."
Her ears burning with mortification of getting it wrong, Willowpaw lowered her gaze and watched the tom chew it into a paste, before applying it to the large HazeClan warrior's joints. By the instantaneous look of relief on his face, it seemed to have done its job.

Polarfreeze - He/him - FroryClan Warrior - Location: Camp


The sharpness in the leader's voice had him cringing, causing the giant tom to briefly flatten his small ears against his head out of embarrassment. Feeling both guilty and caught, the pointed warrior slowly lumbered over to where he had been called on his tender joints. While he was a gentle giant, the newcomer was still stubborn in his wake, and he offered a small shake of his head to the herbalist. "...My mom always said it's just growing pains. I've had it for moons, most of my life. I'm sure when I get older, it'll go away." As he spoke with the Apothecary, his eyes slid cautiously over to Duskbright.

Polarfreeze knew his worth. Being that he'd joined only a few days prior, he wasn't worth a couple of herbs. Not to the clan leader.

Patrol eh? He could feel his stomach twisting itself in knots- he knew just what Duskbright wanted out of him. He wanted to exploit his knowledge against HazeClan, to potentially lead to the destruction of the clan in which he'd been born into... "I'm fine." The disobedient tom quietly reaffirmed. "...The pain diminishes when I get moving, anyways."

Could he really bring himself to invade HazeClan, and so soon? He'd only just left- while he resented his family for forcing betrothal upon them, he didn't want to murder them.

Duskbright — LEADER — He/Him



Duskbright found himself bristling watching the lynx point flatten his ears in submission. Was it just some ploy to get him to trust them? It wasn't going to work. He snorted and narrowed his eyes to claw-thin slits of golden, his voice weak, but still hostile. He didn't like the way Polarfreeze was staring at him. Did he look weak? Or was he seeking for his approval? If this lumbering bear of a cat wanted to beg, scrape and whine his way to approval in FroryClan, he might as well run back to HazeClan now.

"Well i hope they go away soon." He gruffed, the tone making it very aware he wasn't in the mood to sit here and let the newcomer use up their daisy.

"Let's get moving then. We're going on a herb patrol." He turned to Cloudpaw. "It's every apprentice's job to learn at least a little about healing, and nows your chance."

And nows my chance to see if this Hazecat is still loyal to his home.
