[silky] [atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] Kit - Deadpaw the medicine cat to be Time - Icefur's death took place in the camp yesterday Weather - Cloudy Muse - Meh Words - 309 Notes - Come on Drowningstar... We need to visit Starclan... *EPIC PLOT STARTS HERE*
The tom was sitting at his mentors grave. She'd left the land too early. She hadn't witnessed the kits birth, something she always took pride in... Her clan were grieving, especially Milkydew. Gemclaw had the illness, unlikely to survive. He would have no family.
The pale tom stood up, bowing his head one last time to his mentor, and hobbling back home. His broken foot was a little better now, he had remembered everything Icefur had told him to do when someone had a breakage, but only having one front paw was annoying.
He looked up towards the camp. Drowningstar was still sick, but they absolutely needed to get to the Highstones, surely someone in Starclan would give them the cure? They had to!
Deadpaw hobbled into Icefu - no, his den. He sat down, rubbing in the crushed herbs for his foot, and coating the other in spider webs. Deadpaw slowly got up. Icefur's scent still lingered.
Deadpaw almost cried out in pain. His mentor was gone, and he was only 12 moons old! He couldn't take this pressure, but soon, hopefully in Seamist's litter, he'd get an apprentice.
He hobbled into Drowningstar's den. "Drowningstar. It's time to go to the Highstones." He said quietly, looking at the dark blue she-cat. If she could make it, he'd have to get help from someone in the clan.

[sandfire] [atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=81A1c7] notes: appologies on taking so long! We need one other cat to post and then we can leave and start posting at the Moonstone or moor or something~ wc: 430
I will not be made useless I won't be idled with despair I will gather myself around my faith for light does the darkness most fear There was a silence in the battered she-cat leader, as she looked upon Deadpaw with knowing, yellow eyes. She seemed a bit distressed from the news, but she knew herself quite well- these were things that had to be done. Icefur had better give them answers from the stars. She knew that the mangled apprentice would have to get his medicene cat name... She was half hoping that Starclan would be kind enouogh to change his name more than his paw. It honestly made her feel as if her clan wasn't worthy of a healthy medicine cat. Still, she took on the responsiblity silently, knowing that when they came back it the clan would be expecting them to have the answers. If they didn't...
She sighed, shoving herself to her paws, shuddering. There was a sickness inside her like most of her clan, but she was lucky enough to have the stars guide her paws more than some of them. Icefur... if only Icefur had nine lives. She blinked at the apprentice, shuffling towards him slowly, feeling the frozen air around her and knowing her fever was still raging her body. She could manage, she prayed. "It is," she answered fearfully, staring out of her den to her camp. She nudged him lightly, sighing in a ragged breath. "We leave." Her words were spoken quickly, in a light, airy way. She felt barely conscious, but in that daze she felt less pain.
"Is there anyone..." She asked, leaving her den to step out into the hot light of newleaf, gazing around for the cats of her clan. "Who wishes to travel with us? I fear there will be rats and dangers we won't be able to handle on our own..." She lowered her head, shaking it, hoping her voice was loud enough for those in her clan's camp to hear.

[silktail] [atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] Kit - Deadpaw the medicine cat to be Time - Icefur's death took place in the camp yesterday Weather - Cloudy, sun is peeping through the clouds a little Muse - nyah Words - 331 Notes - Anyone? [if no one replies, expect Milkydew to come]
Deadpaw's pleading soft brown eyes scanned the clan. No one appeared to be coming forward. He felt tears well up in his eyes. He stood up, straight and strong. "I have had a vision." A few cats cast their gaze to Deadpaw.
"A prophecy is about to be fufilled. Starclan have found a cure to the disease, and now, we shall be cured from this plague." Deadpaw said. "And cats like Icefur will not have died in vain!" He roared.
His pale fur shone as the sunlight hit him, lighting up the camp. "If you wish to not be a part of something that kits many moons from now will be told about, and to go down as one of the brave heroes who saved the clans from death, then, come with Drowningstar and I, before we all fall to the sickness."
Deadpaw felt strange. He felt older, he swore he could feel Icefur at his side. Deadpaw's eyes shone with the brilliance they had done when Drowningstar had made him Skypaw, and when he had valiantly fought against Thunderclan, and when he had told his mentor he wanted to be a leader. He was leading his clan now, leading out of a sickness that had plagued them for too long, and that they would soon drive from the land, and be cured again, free from sickness, able to hunt, fight, and give birth to the next generation without fear of death from the plague.

Milkydew, who had just dropped Currentkit off after talking with Seamist, walked over. "I will come Drowningstar. I have a feeling I am going to find someone as well as a cure." He said. He could feel it in his bones, someone was coming for him.
Deadpaw nodded. "Anyone else?" No response. "Come on Drowningstar... Can you walk without help?" He asked concernedly, his tail flicking from side to side.

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=81A1c7] notes: P= wc: 180-or so
chasin the sky our beautiful life you make mistakes and it's my back that breaks and forever my pride steals my life to submission i'm beat but there's hope beneath these feet blisters and blood and the sun makes you blind you don't let it eat ya it can't help but be kind cause you know what's important with your back to the world you can break metal chain Drowningstar's eyes lit up with a blazing, intense fire as Milkydew spoke up. She closed her eyes, feeling a pain flare up inside her, an odd one. Milkydew would be a good cat to join them... But, she shook her head fiercely at his request. "I don't care if no cat wishes to come, Milkydew, but you must stay...You may take us to the boarder," she breathed raspy, her eyes narrowed when she finally opened them to glare at the dirt. "But the clan needs a leader here at home. As deputy, that's your responsibility. It's hard enough for the clan without me and Deadpaw, I'm sure."
There was so much... pain in the old she-cat's eyes as she shuffled her paws forward, each step heavy, towards the camp exit. Her tail was held high, however, her pride was never something that faltered. "Unless you think I'll die," she mewled darkly, glancing back at the white warrior. "The trip would only be more of a burden on Riverclan if you came." With that, she sighed, leaving the camp.
((My muse is dead guys, sorry))

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] Kit - Deadpaw the medicine cat to be // Milkydew the kinda sad // Berry the rogue Time - Icefur's death took place in the camp yesterday Weather - Cloudy, sun is peeping through the clouds a little Muse - nyah Words - 251 Notes - Anyone? [if no one replies, expect Milkydew to come]
"You will not die Drowningstar." Deadpaw said defiantly. "I will make sure of it that you stay alive." He said, standing up to his full height. "Milkydew, I appreciate it, but as Drowningstar said, you should stay here." Deadpaw bowed his head as he went to catch up with his leader.
He suddenly felt a strange feeling in his bones, and looked up to see a white she-cat in the distance. Deadpaw stood back a little, and could smell the she-cat. "B-b-berrypaw?!" He exclaimed. "She's alive?!"
Before you could say 'Milkydew it's Berrypaw!' Milkydew shot past Deadpaw to greet his little sister. Deadpaw watched him as he not-so-cautiously went towards the white she-cat, who seemed to shrink back a little.
"Huh." Deadpaw said, walking forward next to Drowningstar. 'Never thought I'd see the day...' He thought, smiling to himself gently.

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] Kit - Deadpaw the medicine cat to be // Milkydew the kinda sad // Berry the rogue // Adderpaw the impatient Time - Icefur's death took place in the camp yesterday Weather - Cloudy, sun is peeping through the clouds a little Muse - nyah Words - 308 Notes - Anyone?
Adderpaw hissed at all the cats in camp. "Fine. I will come Drowningstar." The bitter young she-cat said, eyeing the rest of the clan angrily. "If you want something doing, you may as well do it yourself." Adderpaw hissed again at the cats still in camp.
"Thank you Adderpaw." Deadpaw smiled at the black she-cat, who huffed in reply. His eyes cast towards Milkydew returning with the other cat. He got a full whiff of her now - it was Berrypaw. "Holy mousedung." Deadpaw said, stepping back. "Are you sure you should be bringing her into camp?!" The tom asked Milkydew.
"Err..." Milkydew said. "I don't know... I just recognised her smell... You are Berrypaw, right?" Milkydew asked Berry.
"Me? Yeah... I was known as that until tall walkers stole me and then I changed my name... How is Icefur?" Berry asked cheerily. "And Gemclaw too? And what about Magicpelt?" Berry smiled again.
"Berry... I'm sorry, Icefur died..." Deadpaw looked at the floor, and shook his head. Berry took a step back. "Gemclaw is sick... And Magicpelt died many moons ago..." He continued, looking up, but Berry had ran out of the camp. Milkydew sighed.
"I knew she would take it this way..."
