Medicine Cat Gathering [August '11]

"Come on..." Ebonyroot said lightly to her apprentice as she padded into the fourtrees clearing, looking up at the sky. It was a little cloudy tonight.

Shinepaw raced towards (Edit)- Fourtrees, exitment filling in her chest. She turned to look behind her. "Lilyleaf!" She called. "I can't wait!". She suddenly spotted Ebonyroot, Icewhisker, and Brightpaw.


Shinepaw raced over to them. "Hi!" She panted.

OOC: Shine, everyone meets at the Fourtrees before going to the Highstones.

"Cowpaw, hurry if you want to finish your training sooner." Icewhisker meowed as he rushed to the Fourtrees. He let out a happy sigh as he saw Ebonyroot and her apprentice entering the clearing. He rushed over to the 2 she-cats with a smile on his face.

"Hi." he meowed, huffing a little. He looked back over his shoulder to see if Cowpaw was there yet.

"Cowpaw's a little slow...or I'm just too fast." he meowed, mostly to himself.

Brightpaw took big, rushed steps. Even though the soon-to-be-medicine cat had been to a Medicine cat gathering ike this before, she loved the experiance she had with StarClan when she did.

Deathpaw chuckled, watching Cowpaw chase after Icewhisker. "Hey." she mewed to the newcomers.

"Hi Deathpaw. You excited about your first medicine cat meeting? It will be a bit like your ceremony, but we'll just be sharing tongues with StarClan." he explained, wondering if Ebonyroot had said anything about it. He looked back over his shoulder, letting out a small sigh.

Shinepaw purred when she saw her brother, Icewhisker. "Icewhisker!" She said as she nuzzled him.

Deathpaw nodded at Icewhisker. Her heart was pumping, though for different reasons.

"Shinepaw! I haven't seen you in what seems like moons!" he meowed, his voice sounding a bit like a kits. He nuzzled his sister back, purring a little.

"You don't know how tough it's been since Fallensoul died...Firepaw is...more troubled by it that I thought she would be." he meowed, telling his good (xD)sister about his life a bit.

Occ- Lol X3

Ic- Shinepaw felt sadness settle under her fur. "Fallensoul.." She mewed, her eyes watering. "Is Firepaw ok?" She asked, trying not to cry. She had almost forgotten she was at Fourtrees.

"She...she's fine I guess...we don't really talk much anymore...we're having...a little fight I guess." he meowed, looking at the sad apprentice. He knew he couldn't tell her about him going to die. Even though he was the youngest of the 3, he felt somehow like he had to take care of them.

"Don't worry. Everything will be fine. I'm sure it will work out." he lied, forcing himself to smile for Shinepaw's sake. He looked at Ebonyroot for a second, hoping she wouldn't tell his sister until it happened.

Occ- Yo gonna die?!!?!?!??! DX X3


Ic- Shinepaw looked up at Icewhisker. There was an emotion in his eyes that she couldn't read. She pushed it aside. "I know it will." She said as she nuzzled him once more, and sat beside him, her pelt brushing his.

Ebonyroot looked at Shinepaw, she had been avoiding Icewhisker's gaze the moment he arrived. "Let's hope so..." she sighed, her eyes glancing around for any sign of Lilyleaf or Hawkpath. She had considered bringing up her friend's ill-fated prophecy, but changed her mind, this wasn't the time.

"I wonder what's taking Cowpaw so long...oh ya! You should meet her ,Shinepaw. She's a lot to handle, but it's worth it." he meowed with a smile, and let out a sigh. He was glad he was with his sister. Somehow, he felt safer there with his friends and sister than he did in his own den. He began washing his paw, a little embarrassed that he and Shinepaw were really the only ones talking.

Shinepaw cheered up a bit. "Really? Were is she?" She asked.
