REDSTAR

with the sun just rising to the surface of the horizon, a ginger form lay atop the tallrock, gaze directed at the rising sun as the light drifted across the sky. it was a beautiful sight and the she-cat was fully greatful that she was able to witness it as much as she had. every day she wakes to her best ability to be able to watch the sun rise across the moor, a sign that it was a new day with new possibilities. there was never a time in the morning that would make the sun unvisibile and the light to not blaze the sky with it's colors. it sure was beautiful.

with a yawn to escape her jaws, the ginger warrior shook her head as her tail flicked lightly across the rock. it was still a strange feeling to know that she was leader of windclan for another day, that any day she could lose another life and be just as close to joining starclan as any warrior that lay below her. things just couldn't be any different but yet, it could take a split second to lose someone she's grown to like, not that she'd show it. she had a reputation of being grumpy and she had to keep that up. can't go changing on her warriors now and show that she actually cares because they should know that, they know she has walls, and frankly, if it weren't for cindermist, she probably would be dead by an uprising. she just didn't understand what her friend saw in her that made her feel much better about the day.

as another yawn escaped her jaws, redstar closed her eyes for a moment to feel the air around her, a calming gesture. instantly her ears pricked at the sound of light chatter of the dawn patrol leaving for their duties and the ginger she-cat rumbled slightly. she'd have to mention that she would like to go on a patrol soon, that would be fun, yes? she hadn't gone on a patrol in a few days and frankly, training mallowpaw has taken a lot out of her. with a heavy sigh, the windclan leader lowered her head to her paws once again, gaze on her sleeping clanmates.

Kestrelcloud winced as she shifted position for the fifth time. Beetleberry gave her the clear to return to her duties days after the fight with the rogues. Throughout the time, the medicine cat has given her poppy seeds for the pain and they helped her sleep, but she wasn't given any poppy seeds last night. Her dreams were troubled, reliving the fight between Sun and herself that led onto the thunderpath which nearly led to her and Littlestep's death. Kestrelcloud still couldn't believe her half-brother would be so brazen as to attack her and her Clanmates like that. More than anything, however, she regretted not dealing with him when she had the chance all those moons ago.

Kestrelcloud opened her eyes and saw the dawning glow in the sky. Barely a whisker of sleep! Kestrelcloud sighed and sat up, her pelt ruffled with moss from her nest clinging to certain places. She lifted a paw and licked it, rubbing her face to get the sleep out. At the corner of her eye Kestrelcloud spotted Redstar on top of her rock stretching out and yawning. Her ginger pelt seemed to brighten like fire in the dawn light behind the WindClan leader. Kestrelcloud's heart beat faster as she stared at the she-cat. How beautiful and magnificent she looked on top of that rock!

Fallowpaw

A grey shadow exited the apprentice den, the foggy feeling of sleep lurking nowhere near its pelt. Fallowpaw stared silently around the fire-lit camp, recognising few cats that were awake or drowsy. The apprentice hadn't slept yet she felt no lingering pulls of the dragging darkness at her mind.

Fallowpaw edged to the side of the apprentice den and sat down rigidly, her long tail curled tight around her straight paws. Statuesque. The she-cat was different to others, she knew that. In her dreams, she was a twoleg marching through a shadowy abyss with faint whispers scraping her skull. In the waking world, she was that silent apprentice that struggled with all social interactions. In her mind, thoughts swirled around her inner eye, most thoughts of which weren't hers. It was strange, how a cat can differ in such ways.

The grey she-cat glanced around, her sister wasn't here. No talking to cats today then since Fallowpaw relied on her snobbish sister to be her voice. Odd, to rely on someone so different but the tabby's confidence had it perks as well as its grievances.

Fallowpaw turned her gaze skywards, the usually blue air-lake was shattered with multiple colours; drifting from blazing-white to scorch-red. Red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning. Ah, another thought that did not belong to her. Such foreign thoughts. It was almost worrying. Turning her white-furred head back down, the apprentice spotted her mentor staring up at a ginger tabby on a rock.

Rising to her paws, Fallowpaw approached with completely silent footsteps. Her stealth was one of her strengths, barely noticed by others unless she makes herself heard. Which doesn't happen, Fallowpaw doesn't speak. At least, not to most cats. The grey apprentice sat down directly behind her mentor and stared up at the ginger tabby as well, assuming it was appropriate behaviour. That cat was familiar- oh! It was the leader... Redstar. What was the proper behaviour? ...Respect? Yes, that sounded right. Fallowpaw continued to stare at Redstar, thinking on what behaviour is seen as respectful.

REDSTAR

despite her gaze on the rising sun, the ginger tabby she-cat flicked an ear to get a better sense of the shuffling going on behind her. while she had seen warriors and apprentices getting up as the dawn continued to rise to begin their day of training, redstar could easily feel eyes prying into the back of her body. while it did make her uncomfortable, she knew it was one of her clanmates and that didn't trouble her one bit. well, it wouldn't if she felt none of them would eventually be out to get her. it always happened. shoot, that's what she'd felt a couple of times with tornstar and her babbling the moons before her death. end it quick and find a new leader.

with a lash of her tail, redstar turned a cheek to notice the brown tabby pelt of kestrelcloud and her apprentice, fallowpaw. she'd felt the two of them would be a good fit, which was why she labeled kestrelcloud as the apprentice's mentor. tensing her muscles to stretch her back, the windclan leader turned her body and leaped down from the tallrock and onto the bare ground, blue gaze turning towards the two felines. "kestrelcloud. fallowpaw." redstar stated in a montone voice, jaw tensing as she held back the yawn that wanted to escape her jaws. while she figured she should get mallowpaw and take her own apprentice out for a journey for the day, redstar decided she'd let the she-cat sleep in for a bit until the sun rose a little higher.

"is there something the matter?" the leader asked questionably, wondering what could possibly be the matter so early in the morning. "did stoneshade get into the food again?" she laughed jokingly about her brother and his sometimes weird eating habits. while sometimes it was good to laugh and others to keep things serious, she figured she could attempt to joke around and show a bit of a softer side to herself other than the hard, gruff, and stubborn facade she put on the rest of the time. "joking about my brother aside, what can I do for you two?"

For a few moments Kestrelcloud was mesmerized by the ginger she-cat. She gaped slightly and wondered if she could go talk to her. But what if Redstar wished to be alone? Kestrelcloud was uncertain which was unusual for her. Usually she was able to make up her mind but everything revolving with Redstar would fly out to the moor.

Kestrelcloud's eyes flicked to the cats passing by and immediately felt a little foolish though she didn't show it. "Kestrelcloud, Fallowpaw," Redstar called, clambering down the tallrock and padding towards her.

The golden brown spotted tabby she-cat blinked her green eyes. Had Redstar noticed her staring? Kestrelcloud noticed the ginger she-cat's blue eyes looking pass her. She turned her head to and spotted her apprentice Fallowpaw. It surprised her to see the young she-cat sitting just behind her. How did she get there? But then Fallowpaw always was a silent kind of cat and her stealth skills were a bit uncanny. Kestrelcloud was convinced she would make a good warrior and a good hunter in the tunnels with that stealth skill. The only thing Kestrelcloud wished to improve was Fallowpaw's communications. After all, a Clan is a group of cats that stick together, work together, fight together in the best and worst of times. How can a cat who barely talks to any of her Clanmates if at all be a warrior? She had this exact problem with Littlestep. Hopefully with enough patience and the right guidance Kestrelcloud could bring Fallowpaw out of that shell even a little bit.

"Is there something the matter?" the leader asked once she reached them. "Did Stoneshade get into the food again?"

Kestrelcloud smiled and purred in amusement. "Really? I thought that was a strange looking badger rummaging through the pile." She said teasingly.

Redstar laughed after a moment the mood was light. "Joking about my brother aside, what can I do for you two?" she asked after calming down enough.

"Huh, well..." Kestrelcloud wasn't sure what to say. Honestly, again her mind went 'bleh.' Of course her demeanor appeared calm and betrayed little to nothing of her discomfort. Her eyes glanced at her apprentice and Kestrelcloud thought about Redstar's own apprentice. "Are you taking Mallowpaw out for training today?" she asked causally.

Fallowpaw

The grey she-cat twitched an ear as Redstar greeted her, the dewy grass soaking into her paws. Fallowpaw wasn't certain how to respond. It was clearly an... honour of some sort. Struggling on deciding a movement or greeting, Fallowpaw settled with giving a brief nod to the leader, hoping that how she had responded wasn't disrespectful. This is why she needed Heatherpaw, the apprentice was very inept at speaking.

When Redstar decided to joke about her sibling, Fallowpaw glanced away, focusing her amber gaze elsewhere. Jokes were risky, the grey cat could never tell if the joke was serious or not or if she wasn't meant to laugh. As she looked away, Fallowpaw's gaze focused on the dawn stained sky; the foreign thought floating back to her mind. She would have to ask the medicine cat about it if it got any worse, she thought, turning back around to watch the two she-cats; flicking an ear as Kestrelcloud glanced at her.

Kestrelcloud knew how to respond, Fallowpaw will leave the speaking to her. It was a relief knowing that another cat could speak in her stead. Heatherpaw can't be around all the time, unfortunately. The she-cat turned her gaze to her white-furred paws as they continued to speak. Fallowpaw knew that she should probably be focusing on what they were saying to better her social skills but for some reason she just wanted to.

REDSTAR

"really? i thought that was a strange looking badger rummaging through the pile," kestrelcloud commented teasingly in response to her joke about stoneshade, making the windclan leader laugh once more. it was horrible how much of a laugh she could get from picking on her elder brother, but that he was so nonchalaunt about it that he would probably have laughed too. with her next comment out of the way, wondering what she could do for kestrelcloud and fallowpaw, the ginger tabby gave a look towards the apprentice. while it wasn't unusual, redstar did think that fallowpaw was a little too quiet for her taste. it wasn't the 'broading' type of feeling she got, like fallowpaw was angry at something, but more of the 'i don't wanna talk' sort of vibe which was probably why she noticed heatherpaw speaking out more.

with another glance at fallowpaw, giving the small she-cat a smile of encouragement, redstar perked her ears when kestrelcloud spoke before hesitating. "huh, well... are you taking mallowpaw out for training today?" at the question, redstar flicked her tail lightly; she had figured she'd take mallowpaw out at sunhigh for some more hunting practice on her stance, but she really didn't want to do that either because she'd been working the she-cat quite a bit. "well, i was planning on at least waiting until a little after sunhigh to take her out for practice with her hunting stance," redstar started before closing her mouth slightly, thinking about what to say. "unless you had other plans with fallowpaw, i was thinking about going for a quick hunt until sunhigh when I took mallowpaw out, if you'd like to join me."

she really didn't want to take mallowpaw out until the evening time, because tomorrow she was going to take her on the evening patrol, something she didn't want the apprentice to be tired for the patrol, especially since she wanted the apprentice to learn something. it was all about learning, as she didn't want to train mallowpaw only for her to potentially die because she wasn't trained properly.
