Dawnclan OOC STARTED (still O/A) | Roleplay

Icefang

It wasn’t the leaky roof that initially put Icefang in such a bad mood. Rather, it was that it had been raining for days now and it just didn’t seem to want to let up. Her nest was located in a spot that, fortunately, wasn’t leaking as bad as the rest of the den. The apprentices –those slackers-- really needed to fix it pronto.

Her sleep had been filled with vivid dreams that left her awaking up to feel as if she hadn’t slept at all. After the first warrior had awoken and left the den that morning, others started to trickle out, the constant activity making it impossible for Icefang to even think of getting more sleep.

Agitated, she got herself to her paws, limbs feeling heavy like they were filled with stones, and headed out of the warriors den and into camp. The rain, although a light drizzle, quickly clung to her long fur, tangling it in the short time it took her to head across the clearing to take shelter under the giant pine tree in the center of camp.

She knew that she couldn’t hide out from the rain forever, but at least for a little while while the Clan awoke she could sit and watch the activity. Some cats, she noticed, weren’t afraid of getting wet, like Hailsong who seemed content to sit in the open. His fur was soaked already, but he didn’t seem to care. Icefang was a bit envious, honestly. It would be nice to not be bothered by the rain.

Turning her attention to Darkblaze nearby, who was also taking shelter from the rain. “Waiting for your lazy apprentice?” She asked casually for lack of anything better to do. Honestly she didn’t socialize too much. She had few friends since she had a tendency to come off as rude and was so quick to anger and lash out, but that was fine. She didn’t need anyone but herself.

Dapplepaw

Being a morning cat had its merits.

Dapplepaw always found it easy to get up every day. She wasn’t overly optimistic, as if the sun was shining and the world was great, but she rather enjoyed mornings. There was just something about the feeling of waking up to a new day that was incredibly pleasing. It was very rare for her to wake up in a bad mood.

Today was no different. The moment she stirred from a rather enjoyable dream where she had gone hunting and had caught more prey than she could ever hope, she crawled out of her nest. Taking a moment to stretch, she realized that she was the last apprentice to awaken and winced.

“Oops.” She muttered to herself, but shrugged it off. It was no big deal. It wasn’t like she had woken up late or made her mentor wait too long for her, so there wasn’t any harm.

Emerging into the clearing, Dapplepaw glanced up at the sky as the rain that had been a thin drizzle started to pick up a bit. ‘It’s as if the sky is unhappy to see me.’ She thought with amusement. The rain honestly didn’t bother her too much. She had more important things to worry about than soggy fur!

Turning her attention to matters at hand, she looked around for Greycloud, wondering what was in store for their training today. She had become an apprentice only a few days ago, but the rain had prevented her from getting any serious training done. Maybe today her mentor would teach her something really important!

Quillstar

It wasn't alwys easy to tell when morning had come, and this was deinitely one of those times. Jolting awake, Quill winced as she gently bumped her head on the sloped and solid roof of her den, her ears falling back for a moment as her long tail flicked in agitation behind her. Stretching with a wide yawn, Quillstar slowly pushed to her feet, her ears falling back for a moment at the soft pang in her stomach. She had spent all evening thinking, and had been awake well into the early, dark hours of the morning. any elder of the clan knew her story, and it affected her decisions heavily- she was young for a leader, and the unexpected passing of the previous cat who filled that roll continued to take it's toll on the she-cat's mind. Shaking a sprinkling of dew from the thick fur of her tail and the lengthy reaches of her whiskers, Quill gently padded out into the sunbathed territory, letting the morning warmth soak into her pelt and wake her up. Springing from the damp forest floor and maneuvering onto the top of her den, Quill layed out on the cool stone surface, watching as the clan slowly dragged their paws through the struggle of actually waking up.

Stretching her paws, her claws flexing open and closed for a moment, Quill's vibrant green gaze slowly scanned the clan still, trying to map out her day's plans. Boarder patrols, hunting groups- all of it would have to be planned for the day and the lack of sleep combined with the list of things that needed to be done were giving her a slight headache on an empty stomach.

Darkblaze

Darkblaze looked at Icefang, the white cat rarely spoke to anyone. He'd thought a cloud was talking to him before he realised who it was. That fur probably doesn't help her hunt, though she was better than other cats in the clan. "Yes, I am. Lazy cat isn't awake yet. I'm thinking of going in there and get him to start working on trying to patch the dens, at least some of the larger holes. Though, I'm not sure if it would be worth the effort..." He was annoyed at his apprentice's lack of appearance, who did he think he was to stay asleep? The fresh-kill pile could probably need a bit more, despite it being alright for the day. He flicked his tail in his annoyance, glaring over in the direction on the apprentice's den.

Rabbitsfoot

The sunlight sneaked through the leaves of the small pine trees, hitting the ground and face of plenty of warriors, mostly disturbing their slumber. Rabbitsfoot was one of those warriors, he hummed drowsily and lazily, rolling onto his back. His back was met with the cold ground as he had made a very small moss nest the day prior, it was annoying but he was tired. The deputy opened his eyelids, he stretched his paws, his tail swaying across the ground like a toy for a kit.
The small grey figure rolled back onto his belly, standing up and shaking head of the morning dust. He noticed some other warriors were awake, he perked his ears up and lowering his tail, taking a few drowsy steps towards the entrance to see the leader observing the camp, he grinned softly and flattened his ears, yawning quietly. The tom wasn't very social.

Icefang

The fluffy she-cat chuckled at Darkblaze's words. "I'm guessing it leaked on you during the night?" She questioned, but didn't wait for his answer before continuing. "We've been putting off making repairs until the rain passes, but it's been three days now, and it might still continue. It would be best if we addressed the situation now instead of waited."

Even if she didn't talk very much, Icefang was capable of holding a conversation once it started. Of course, her conversations usually didn't last very long anyhow before some cat got offended by something she said.

Huffing, Icefang curled her tail around her paws, trying to keep them warm. For a greenleaf day, it was unusually cold, but that was likely due to the unending rain. Her fur was just beginning to dry, but she knew that soon she would have to get up and head back out. The fresh-kill pile didn't stock itself, after all.

Lemonpaw

Lemonpaw slowly walked out of the den towards a tree with moss at the roots. Rain soaked her thick fur, but she refused to let her tail drag in the mud. She curled up on the wet moss and closed her eyes. Lemonpaw felt awful. Her head ached and she could hear her heart thumping rapidly.

The rain started to settle down and...she was dreaming. Everything was airy and breezy. She was by the stream, a place she rarely stopped by. She looked around. Why was she here? It couldn't be a dream from Starclan...there were no other cats there. She sniffed the air. There was an odd scent, one that she had smelt recently. A shiver ran through her honey-colored fur.

The headache that throbbed her head was no longer there, but a feeling of worry replaced it. She noticed some of the tall grass were parted at a place a few feet ahead of her.

Nervously, she lay her belly down and slowly edged towards the area. Lemonpaw had always thought that that was how normal apprentices hunt. Of course, she had no interest in doing so, as her mother had always urged her to become a Medicine Cat. She paused and tried to recall her earliest memory...it was when her mother told her of the origin of her name.

"The runt," her mother had said, "Has a sour name."
"But what is a lemon?"
"A sweet looking fruit at first glance, but has a sour and tongue-scorching taste."

Her mother was bitter when Lemonpaw was born, but when she didn't....make it...like her older sister, who her father mentioned was also the runt...she had more faith in her. Her mother encouraged her after her survival, but feared loosing her in battle.

She crept toward the parted grass and gasped. Deathberries! A pile of death berries with multiple rabbits and voles were there, and it was clearly an animals doing. She examined the rabbit. It had been stuffed with the deadly berries, and was meant as a trap. She had to wake up.

Blinking her eyes open, her paws trembled at the dream she had witnessed. After a few moments of shock, she ran to the medicine den, covered in dirt and water.

"Blizzardrunner, I need - I need to tell you something important."

Darkblaze

"Didn't get too wet, thankfully. Everyone was asleep and some cats get annoyed when you even breathe too hard." He sat in silence for a minute or two, still glaring at the apprentice's den. "That's it, it's late enough. He needs waking up." He stood up and began walking towards the den, that apprentice was not going to be getting it easy today. Yes, it's raining. That does not mean a day off! He made his way carefully to his apprentice's nest and gave him a sharp jab with a paw. "Ahem."

Blizzardrunner

Blizzardrunner noticed the apprentice come back, surprised by the urgency of her request. He turned to her, "What is it?" He was nervous, if it was important, what was it about? It couldn't be an injured cat, could it? No... She would've probably just said that outright. So it must be something else... But what?

Lemonpaw

The apprentice gulped. What if it was just a dream? Well, it would be better to inform him anyway...
"First, I want to apologize. I felt really awful, my head and stomach hurt, and I knew that Sunstream was more important so I held it off, and it made me a bit grumpy."
She paused and looked down. How was she supposed to deliver the next part?
"I-I saw this d-dream when I was asleep-p..."
Quietly, she explained to him what she had seen.
"...but it was just a dream right?" she asked hopefully. "There weren't any cats but me... and don't cats normally visit if it was from Starclan? B-besides, I'm not important enough to recieve something from Starclanm" she murmured.
That was it. She was officially crazy. Lemonpaw wouldn't be surprised to see him report her insaneness to Quillstar.
She looked up at him.
"B-blizzardrunner? Am I going crazy?"

Blizzardrunner

Blizzardrunner had been nodding as she spoke. He accpeted her apology easily, "It's fine, just remember your own health is important too, okay? No one wants an ill medicine cat.2 He gave a small smile as he began to wonder about the dream. While it was strange, StarClan was known to work in strange ways none of them could really predict. Perhaps it was better to check it out before assuming insanity? He would rather not diagnose his apprentice as crazy without actual proof, plus, dreams were strange things, even when not from StarClan.
"I do not believe you are going crazy, though in response to the dream, it may have been from StarClan. Importance of a cat isn't always a factor and you are a medicine cat apprentice, so that counts for something. Do you have any idea where it was? If you do, we could go check together. If not, I could ask for a patrol to be sent out to check. Better safe than sorry, I'll say." He smiled again.

Rabbitsfoot

The grey-and-white figure yawned again, his jaw extending to it's full capacity, he even got a cheeky tongue slip out. It was kinda cute. He perked his ears up, trying to look social and amused in his environment, that said, the camp was kinda empty, he sighed and stood up, trying to decide what he'd do this morning.

He should probably socialize. Right.

Rabbitsfoot stretched his tail, raising it slightly. The deputy looked over at the leader once again, wanting to speak to his superior. He padded across the ground of the camp semi-happily, wanting to talk to Qullstar without seeming weird. He dipped his head down in respect as he approached them, his eyes gleaming with amusement. ''Good morning Quillstar..!'' The tom meowed, placing all his weight on his hind feet and smiling happily.

''Are there any patrols we should be notified about?'' He managed to meow out, shy.
