Moon 105

Frostfreckle was bitten by a snake and died. The entire clan notices that Freezespots seems to take the news in an unusually poor way. Freezespots can't let any cat know that they are the one who will be suffering most of any. They cannot confide in their kits, they cannot confide in their fellow medicine cats, they cannot confide in their leader. They must suffer this ultimate heartbreak alone. Maybe this was Starclan's punishment...

The clan grieves deeply for the patient and wise Frostfreckle. They will be remembered by most as a cat they could all talk to about their problems and feelings. A cat that always knew what to say and when to say it. A cat that loved and was loved. They will be missed.

Garlicclaw caught greencough. They whine and lament from their nest that they can't go see their kits like this. Honeymurk has snapped at them more than once to stop and that complaining does nothing but annoy the cats around them to which Garlicclaw huffs and says, "My kits would enjoy my whining..." thus staring the whole cycle over again.

Riverpaw and Heavypaw have become warriors named Riverfin and Heavydawn. They are celebrated for their courage and strong will.

Pumpkinpaw, Runningpaw, and Blizzardpaw have been made apprentices and were given to Oddspots, Sneezedazzle, and Conchblaze!

Frecklecry was caught in a twoleg trap and has been lost!

A kittypet was found wandering Starlingclan territory when a patrol found them and confronted them. Instead of being scared by these thin and scarred wildcats like most kittypets are, this cat happily pranced up to the patrol and asked to join. The cats reluctantly led the friendly kitty to camp where Hopstar allowed them to become a warrior named Peachwhisker.

Peachwhisker was immediately injured on their first hunting patrol by a fox. As Jumblepaw treated the former kittypet they brought up how they were wild now and injuries like this happen regularly. And that no cat would blame them if they decided to go back to their twoleg. "Are you kidding me? No way I'm going back! That was the most fun I've had in ages! And I fought it off! By myself!" The cats outside listening in almost purred with amusement. Maybe this kitty was tougher than they first thought.

Cragshadow's tail stump has become infected. Honeymurk scolds them about proper washing technique and needing to pay more attention to their missing tail.

Moon 75

Freezespots had to hide. They could tell that the kits were coming but they knew that they could absolutely not do anything about it in camp so they carefully pranced out of the camp in the early morning with the excuse of going out early to gather herbs. They knew the perfect spot. They picked it out weeks ago. They prepared it with moss and all the herbs they could need. All they had to do now was the hard part.

Frostfreckle noticed Freezespots absence immediately. How could they not notice that their secret mate was missing? They had been acting extremely off the past two moons and Frostfreckle cant help but feel worried. What was happening with them? Why were they acting so squirrelly? Where were they? Why couldn't they tell their own mate what was happening...? Their warrior days might be behind them but they still have those skills engraved into their muscles so they track to the best of their ability. A strand of fur there, an unnatural scrap of herb here, some shifted sand... It took them a while longer than they would have liked to admit but they finally found Freezespots. Chewing juniper berries and gently nuzzling a single tiny kit. Their kit. Frostfreckle realizes. Their kit together. Frostfreckle pushes through the undergrowth. They can't wait to meet them.

Frostfreckle returns that day with Waterkit. Explaining that Frostfreckle and Freezespots had found the mother dead on the border with only this newborn kit still there. That Freezefreckle is giving the unknown mother a proper burial while they were tasked with bringing the kit to camp for adoption and ceremonies. That Frostfreckle will be adopting the kit as their own. No cat can know... Not even Waterkit.

Kinkblaze was poisoned by a sea creature but with Freezespot on nest rest for a 'mysterious stomach ache' and Sprucefeather still being more inexperienced and training Honeypaw they are unable to recover and succumbed to the poison.

[clangenwritingexperiment]

Moon 65

Whisperpeak has recovered from greencough.

Stormflicker died of whitecough.

Hawkbit has injured their leg in a twoleg trap.

Sprucekit watches the medicine den closely. The hustle and bustle inside the normally quiet corner of the cave was alarming. The almost constant stream of sick or injured cats, more so. Ever since they had first heard of the term they had wanted to be a warrior but watching the camp now... They know they can help more by becoming a medicine cat. Sprucekit becomes Sprucepaw and is given to Freezespots.

Roarpatch gifted Sprucepaw some maple seeds to congratulate them.

Yewchill will stay as a medicine cat until Sprucepaw is fully trained.

Yewchill lept from a rock funny and sprained their leg.

Pondpaw and Clampaw leave the camp together, excited for their first trip out of the camp. Leaving Splashtooth and Crookedbracken to run after the energetic apprentices.

Sleekrun is happy to be out of the medicine cat den.

Coalmark no longer has whitecough and is fully ready to start contributing.

Shoreeagle is eyeing the elders den. They are considering retiring after they are done training their apprentice.

Frostfreckle has decided to join the elders den.

Dolphinpaw had a running nose which has progressed into whitecough.

Turtlepaw and Sneezepaw sit proudly in front of the clan. their warrior assessments had gone well and it was finally time for their warrior ceremonies. They are named Turtleswoop and Sneezedazzle in honor of their affection and courage. Daisypaw nad Treepaw watch envious but still cheering with the rest of the clan for their littermates.

Sprucepaw had to check their observation with Freezespots that Shoreeagle, who has been sniffling and sneezing for a while has been presenting with symptoms of whitecough. Freezespots has to agree with their young apprentice, as much as they wish they couldn't. Shoreeagle has caught whitecough.

Hopstar threw themselves in front of Daisypaw as they were being chased by a big dog and came out of it badly injured.

Cragshadow has announced that they are expecting kits!

Grousefleck had their leg caught in a pile of twoleg garbage and escaped heavily injured.

Oddspots felt it late at night. The tell-tale pains. But they didn't want to wake anyone up. So they hid their muzzle in the moss of their nest and, as quietly as possible, had a litter of four kits. The next morning when Freezespots came to check on them they were surprised to find all doing well. Oddspots has named their kits Willowkit, Eggkit, Fogkit, and Primkit.

Clampaw has met every challenge with determination and has overcome every obstacle with ease. Hopstar and Crookedbracken had talked long about this but they both are sure Clampaw is ready, despite their young age. Clampaw is named Clamtrail and praised for their boldness. (image to be added later to show them all grown up)

Dolphinpaw and Shoreeagle have thankfully recovered from their whitecough.

Daisypaw has finished their assessment and is given the name Daisyfin in honor of their devotion. The warm glow of pride they feel is somewhat muted by the sight of their sibling Treepaw watching the ceremony from the entrance of the apprentices den. Next time it will be Treepaw's turn, I just know it.

With the Greenleaf sun baring down on the cats, several have caught heat exhaustion. A few have also caught heatstroke.

Flutterbuzz and Crookedbracken have become mates!

Grousefleck and Whisperpeak have decided to become mates as well! Duckflow watches the couple jealously.

[clangenwritingexperiment]

Moon 55

Sleekrun breathes a sigh of relief. They were nervous that They might lose their tail to the infection but the swelling has gone down and the wound no longer smells funny. Now if only they could convince the healers to stop applying marigold.

Kinkblaze is happy to move back into the warriors den after Stormflicker gives them the all-clear.

Yewchill heard familiar yowling over the dunes, followed by frenzied barking. They lept into battle without thinking and managed to surprise and scare off a truly massive dog. Heavytail thanks them for their help and insists on bringing them to the medicine cats for a check but they are surprisingly fine. They only sustained some minor bruising from the big oafs clumsy legs.

Oddpaw, despite being confined to the medicine den for an injury, manages to prove themselves ten times over and are named a warrior after their intensity. The newly named Oddspots feels honored and proud of this accomplishment.

Greenleafs heat appears to not just affect the cats. Sunnykit was the one to smell the smoke first and told Greenflip about the "extra stinky smell" coming from the medicine cat den. Greenflip manages to rally up the previously sedate clan to grab bedding and soak it in the ocean to hopefully put out the fire that was set on some herbs. While no cat is hurt the herb supply has been decimated so this moon will have both medicine cats taking out full patrols in search of new ones.

They were only able to grab a small pawful of herbs. But every bit counts.

Greenflips leg was severely injured by a twoleg trap.

Stormflicker tells Sunnykit and the apprentices a story that they all eagerly listen to.

Sleekrun's tail is feeling much better now.

Yewchill's bruises have all faded but they still love telling that dog story.

Mantispaw and Crookedpaw have finally passed their warrior assessments and are given the names Mantisears and Crookedbracken for their gallantry and independence respectively. Oddspots eagerly welcomes their siblings as full warriors.

The clan is sorely lacking in kits. Greenflip is going to be shrinking patrol sizes in the hopes that good things happen.

Roarpatch loves everyone! As a friend!

Ferncreek got scratched while driving off a small dog.

Heavytail was injured by a large dog while out on patrol.

Pigeonflecks broken jaw has left them with a scar but nothing more.

Heavytail heals surprisingly fast.

Sleekrun and Roarpatch confess to each other at the same time and laugh. They are now mates.

Greenflip feels the life leaving them slowly. They pass with their mate, their kits, and their leader at their side yet all they can do is apologize as the world grows dim.

The camp suddenly feels a lot more empty without them there...

Cragshadow is made leader in Greenflip's place.

Pepperbuzz saved Grousefleck from a large dog but was badly injured.

Sunnykit presses themself into Frostfreckle's side tightly before reluctantly standing and approaching Hopstar. They are solemnly named Sunnypaw and entrusted to Flutterbuzz. Flutterbuzz sees them casting glances back at their remaining parent and nudges them towards Frostfreckle. Sunnypaw runs up to Frostfreckle one last time for a quick grooming and snuggle before they are led out of camp.

The entire family grieves.

Whisperpeak and Kinkblaze both bring back three kits each and refuse to say anything.

Whisperpeak has named their three Sprucekit, Pondkit, and Clamkit.

Grousefleck has to admit to poking their nose around the twolegplace after being found by a patrol with a dislocated leg on the border of twolegplace.

Kinkblaze fought a huge dog and was badly injured.

Fernpaw sees their mentor watching them from the medicine den and smiles softly. Everything they had worked for has led up to this moment. Hopstar names the young cat Ferncreek and praises them for their generosity.

Mantispaw gloomily walks their way over to Yewchill to touch noses. they aren't really sure they can do any of this but they can't just reject the ceremony with everyone watching. Maybe they can sneak back into their parents' nests when no one is looking and disappear among the soft moss there.

Crookedpaw casts an envious glance over at the medicine den. They don't know which would be a better fit for them but they figure they can try out this warrior thing for a few moons before deciding definitively what they want.

Oddpaw is nervous about the future but happy to be here. They touch noses with Pepperbuzz and sit down beside their new mentor.

Heavytail was kicked in the face by s twoleg when they and their patrol sees a twoleg about to throw a struggling and yowling bag off of a twoleg half bridge. The patrol was forced to retreat with Heavytail sustaining a broken jaw and no other cat to show for their attempt.

Mantispaw caught greencough.

Frozenspots shows the new apprentices what being a medicine cat is like by taking them on an herb-gathering patrol. Crookedpaw takes Frozenspots aside to ask them about medicine cat duties and a strange dream they had. But Freezespots regrettably can't make sense of the dream, instead, they invite Crookedpaw to visit any time to ask them or Stormflicker any questions.

Darkpatch sacrificed themselves to save their patrol from a large dog.

Frostfreckle shyly introduces their single kitten to the clan. Greenflip has named them Sunnykit.

Sleekrun's tail was mangled by a fox.

Flutterbuzz and Mantispaw are feeling better.

Oddpaw got into a fight with a dog and got hurt.

Crookedpaw was given to Hopstar after the death of their previous mentor, Darkpatch.

Yewchill is officially old. Not retired. Just feeling it in their bones.

Duckflow has permanent joint pain as a result of a previously dislocated limb.

Crookedpaw is feeling more confident in their role as a warrior apprentice.

Pidgeonfleck was almost swallowed up by the sand but they were swiftly dug out. Pidgeonfleck doesn't remember how it happened but their jaw is now hanging at an awkward angle. Everyone rushes them to see Stormflicker.

Sleekrun's mangled tail has started to smell funny and is hot to the touch.

Heavytail's broken jaw has healed well, even if the scar says otherwise.

Four cats have a crush on Frostfreckle, not including Frostfreckle's MATE. (LADS! THERE ARE OTHER CATS)

[clangenwritingexperiment]

Moon 45

Cragshadow's wounds smell infected to Stormflicker.

Kinkpaw has faced every challenge with a solid and clear plan and has been deemed ready to become a warrior. The newly named Kinkblaze stands proud before their clan.

Saltears quickly spots a snake hugging the wall at the entrance to the cave and rushes over to hiss at it and bat it away. No snakes are getting in here on their watch.

Heavypaw has recovered from their dog scratches.

Bouncedew is hit by a monster while attempting to cross a thunderpath.

Cragshadow no longer smells the sore infection in their wound.

Whisperpeak ate some curious-looking red berries and instantly regretted that decision. They are now poisoned.

Cragshadow has finally healed from their injury.

Flutterbuzz's eyes have also recovered. Both medicine cats breathe a heavy sigh of relief.

Pepperpaw got spooked by a ginger cat statue sticking up out of the sand.

Cragshadow and Sleekrun have caught greencough.

Whisperpeak is tired after fighting off that poison but they did it.

Yewchill has recovered from a sprain.

Heavypaw listens patiently as Hopstar rambles on about clan pride and Heavypaw's improvement. Hopstar names the new warrior Heavytail and praises their heart.

Frostfreckle and Yewchill spar together. Flutterbuzz tries to join in but collapses into a coughing fit. Stormflicker rushes over and assesses them. They diagnose Flutterbuzz with yellowcough and rush them to the medicine cat den.

Pepperpaw is named Pepperbuzz in honor of their vigor.

[clangenwritingexperiment]

Moon 40

Bouncedew bravely threw themselves over Heavykit after they catch a glimpse of a hawk diving towards the entrance of the camp where Heavykit was playing, saving the kit but becoming injured in the process.

Hawkbit's leg has healed with no evidence the injury was ever there.

Thistlepaw has been seen wandering Starlingclans border and sneaking off in the night only to return in the morning smelling of twoleg things. This night, however, they did not return at all. Hopstar and Pigeonfleck lead search patrols the next morning in search of the young cat only to find them dead on the border they often paced.

Pepperkit can feel the fight leaving their tiny body. Just one more moment until they succumb to the awful ache in their chest. Just one more heartbeat until death. They faintly feel a cold nose press against their cheek and hear an echoing voice tell them to "Live." Pepperkit wakes up and their chest is clear once again.

Duckflow almost lost their life to the merciless ocean but managed to swim back to shore.

Stormflicker tried to stutter out a confession to Freezespots but was swiftly turned down by their fellow medicine cat.

Sleekrun tried to confess their feelings to Darkpatch but was rejected as well. Whisperpeak gently lead the heartbroken cat out of camp for a walk along the beach and some moon gazing. Sleekrun appreciated the company and gesture.

Another injured Snipclan warrior is found at Starlingclan border begging for herbs and a place to stay. Freezespots quickly begins their work and is instantly worried about the condition of this cat's eyes. The new warrior nervously introduces themselves as Flutterbuzz.

Frostfreckle and Greenflip announce together that they are expecting kits. Freezespots opens their mouth to say something but Frostfreckle beats them to it by playfully agreeing to go on herb gathering patrols for the next moon.

Freezespots glares at one particular point on the camp wall. They can't tell what is making them so unnerved by that particular crack, perhaps starclan, perhaps intuition, but they just don't like it. Their unease is proved warranted when a thin line crawls its way out of the split in the stone. Freezespots hisses loudly and quickly jumps on the snake, killing it with one bite to the base of the head. They know not if this was the same snake that killed Slightkit those short moons ago but they feel as though they may have brought, if not the clan, then their tiny spirit some peace.

Saltpaw has proven themselves time and time again and though it may seem early to most Hopstar thinks that they are ready for their warrior name. Saltpaw is named Saltears at ten moons of age and is celebrated for their valor.

(picture added after the fact so that we can see grown-up Saltears)

Cragshadow watched proudly as Heavypaw is apprenticed to Bouncedew, knowing that their kit is safe in their paws.

Frostfreckle and Greenflips kits have been born! Three precious little lives that both can't help but love more than life. Mantiskit, Crookedkit, and Oddkit.

(THEY ALL HAVE FROSTFRECKLES FRECKLES!!! I'M DYING)

Duckflow can breathe easily again.

Pepperpaw accidentally rams their nose into Sleekrun's face too hard. Thankfully their new mentor has a good sense of humor and laughs about it with them.

Frenpaw sits proudly beside Grousefleck, ready to take on any and every challenge their mentor may throw at them. Grousefleck feels ready for an apprentice, just, maybe not one this intense.

Heavypaw gets injured after being attacked by a large dog that had cornered a Jackdawclan warrior.

Roarpatch was gathering herbs with Freezespots when they smelled someone familiar. Roarpatch's heart hurts but they put on a smile and happily greet the spirit. Oh, how they wish they were still here.

Cragshadow tries to catch a rabbit on Jackdawclans border but was instead caught by a Jackdawclan warrior. The injuries gained certainly weren't worth a single rabbit.

[clangenwritingexperiment]

Moon 35

Cragshadow has healed from their leg wound and also found out they are expecting. Frozenspots insists that they join them in their herb patrols for the time being.

Roarpatch both scrapes their paw pads on some rough rocks and catches greencough in quick succession.

Thistlepaw touches noses with Hopstar, thinking that they are surely the luckiest cat in the whole forest.

Kinkpaw manages to shake off their kittencough in time for their apprenticeship ceremony where they are given to Darkpatch.

Saltpaw fidgets impatiently at the camp entrance as they wait for their new mentor Pigeonfleck to finish with their clan wide congratulations.

Yewchill strains their ears to hear a word that any cat is saying. maybe they need to go see Freezespots again...

Slightkit was killed in their sleep by an invasive snake.

Pepperkit has caught greencough.
