The black and white she-cat leaped gracefully onto the rock. Her clam, penetrating icy eyes bellied her thundering heart. She was quite certain it was racing far faster than could be considered healthy. In fact, it beat so hard and fast, she was quite sure she would get a bruise...if that was possible. Taking a deep breath, she let out a loud calling."let all cats old enough to gather their own prey assemble for a clan meeting." There. She said it. Now she just needed to say the actual announcement.

ooc: sucky. short. didn't know what to write xD

[Shanny-Boo]

Sunpaw was snacking on a chaffinch when she heard Froststar call the words for a Clan Meeting. The ginger and white she-cat was so eager to get to the Highrock, she bit the chaffinch in half, then swallowed one half after the other. She winced as it went down her throat, she wasn't used to taking bites that big.

'Note to self' she thought, 'never eat a bird that's almost all feathers again.' Sunpaw thought and practically galloped like a horse over to the Highrock, her paws thudding against the ground.

Amber eyes sparkled up at Froststar. Perhaps today was the day she was to get a mentor...?

[f.ALLEN]

Silent paws picked their way through camp, the small tabby form slipping into the shadows beneath the rock. Alluring jade eyes flickered up to the leader, surveying the moon-older leader with a sympathy lingering. It must be difficult, being so young, to lead a Clan. She knew of one cat alone that would make a fine deputy, and though her heart panged to admit it, she knew her chances of being select were slim. After all, she was even younger than Froststar, if only by a little. Sirenwhisper murmured to herself in her namesake's hypnotic voice, tail tip quivering as she spoke to her self.

She wasn't even going to get an apprentice, she also knew, for the three had been distruputed already, and that also caused a rift. She'd had one, once upon a time--a smile was brought to her face as she recalled Freepaw--but he had disappeared before he could finish his training.

Still, she wondered. Who would the deputy be?

[Rune]

Apprentice time, Stormheart thought to himself, wondering if Eaglepaw would be up to it. And, secretly, the grey warrior wondered if he was up to it himself. It was odd for him to have doubts, he never had before, not even when he had recieved his first apprentice, and yet he was having them now.

Every apprentice was different after all. Perhaps what he felt was not doubt, only anticipation. Yes, that felt more likely. After all, it was not as if Stormheart were anything but experienced. A small, sharp smile crested his lips before vanishing.

Apprentice training would be a challenge, it always was, and he was looking forward to it.

He was.

[H.igh]

The dark tabby had been prowling around in the undergrowth, searching for any mice when he had his leader call for him. Calmly, he stalked out from where he had been, and made his way to where the meeting was being held. The highrock. He noted that so far, his sister and Stormheart were here. He turned his amber gaze on the latter, studying him thoroughly. Yes, Froststar would most likely choose him for deputy. No doubts about that. He far outclassed the others.

"You are happy." It was a question."Do you consider it in the bag or is it for other reasons entirely" This was a tough one Stormheart. Say the wrong thing and you would lose the young tom's admiration forever.


ooc: blah. Short.

[Rune]

Stormheart turned to meet Eaglepaw's eyes, his piercing emerald gaze cool and apparently calm. Raising an eyebrow at the tabby cat's pointed question, Stormheart turned back to the Highrock without replying. The apprentice was a prickly one, from the little the deep grey tomcat knew, and Eaglepaw's question probably only had one correct answer.

Too bad Stormheart wasn't psychic.

The towering warrior answered honestly. "I'm waiting. Froststar will be the one to decide." He rumbled at last, his baritone neutral. Stormheart could guess what the dark-striped cat was asking, but purposefully neglected say anything specific. He refused to be drawn into that game.

[Astarael]

Sending Sunkit/paw a glance, the Maine Coon padded into the area. Moonfire was bored to say the least, but she was all the same eager to learn who the new deputy was to be. She stretched out slowly, mewing a soft greeting to the siblings, Sirenwhisper and Stormheart before settling in between her fellow warriors.

"The time is nigh, wonder who it will be?" she murrmered, glancing at Stormheart pointedly as she spoke.

((I am so dead. Darn P.E.))

[H.igh]

okay guys, I just need Tanglepaw (we got another apprentice so Sirenwhisper will be getting one FYI) and Cherrypaw to post before the announcements start. Sorry about the wait.

[Saffy]

Slowly the young apprentice made her way to the clearing, after unsuccesfully trying to find something useful to do. It seemed everyone in the clan had decieded to do things themselves, and had no need for the young cat's assistance. Why? Surely she couldn't be so unhelpful that nobody had anything for her to do? Allowing a small and barely heard sigh to escape her, Cherrypaw made her way to the gathering cats. Light colored eyes glanced around, as worried filled within them. As a moment ticked by when she couldn't find any of her siblings. Yet after that brief panic gaze caught sight of both her brother and sister, one after another. A faint smile came across her face, glad that both of them were here. Still she made no movements to them, not wanting to disturb whatever they were doing. Silently she settled down into a sitting position near the back of the group. Amber eyes shifted to look at the white leader, Froststar. A light curiosity formed within her as she pondered what this ceremony might bring. A deputy for one, and maybe her and her siblings would be getting mentors? Without another thought tail was tucked beneath her front paws, as the calico she-cat awaited Froststar to speak.

[Mooni]

Moonwhisker padded over to and sat near the highrock. She realized at once what was going on. Forestclan needed a deputy. She wondered who it would be. She didn't want to be deputy, she knew that much. To much responsibility for her liking. No, but she also knew there were a couple apprentices who needed mentors. She wondered who would mentor them.

The silver tabby pelt glistened in the light. She looked up at her leader. She wanted to know who woulde be chosen to represent her clan as deputy. She knew whast would shortly be anounsed would affect the clan for moons to come.


((sorry, kind of brain dead right now...))

[H.igh]
