Father Daughters Hunting Patrols [closed]

Echopaw paced eagerly at the camp entrance. Her father, Rippedsky, said that he would take her hunting today! The spotted apprentice was incredibly excited to spend some alone time with her father. He was always so busy with Mumblekit and being a deputy.

Bubblemist saw her younger sister Echopaw and smiled. Reminded of her own daughters and sons who were apprentices, yet older than their aunt. “Hey Echopaw! Mind if I join you? I overheard you and Dad talking about a patrol.” The large fluffy she cat meowed looking down at her younger sister.

Dandeliondapple was resting in the warriors' den. She'd had little motivation to do anything, including train her own apprentice, since Lionpaw died.

Echopaw twitched her tail then nodded to her older sister. "I suppose Rippedsky would like that." Echopaw replied, greeting her sister with a cheek rub. She hid her disappointment completely.

Occ: daaang bubblemist, calling out the old man on still making babies hahaha

"Good morning." The deputy meowed as he dipped his head in a brief greeting to his daughters. Two of them were his kin and the third might as well have been. Originally, it was supposed to be just him and Echopaw hunting, but it appeared their little patrol had grown. He smiled softly, making his way out of the entrance. As much as he wished he could just hang around and spend time with his daughters, leafbare was coming and they needed to hunt for as much as they could now. Of course, they could exchange a few words while hunting, there was no harm in that. Rippedsky lead the three she-cats out into the territory. It was a relief to be out with them; it reminded him how much was still here amidst all of the loss he had experienced as of late.

"It's a rather nice day to be out..." He spoke lowly, feeling only the slightest of chills down his spine. The thought of a frigid leafbare was less then appealing to the deputy. Him and Crowstar would have to lead his clan through the season of sickness and starvation. But, he supposed there was no way he could not still thank Starclan for the weather they had brought today. It would most likely be one of the last for a while. Rippedsky raised his nose and opened his maw slightly to test the air. There were hints of squirrel. Most would be hiding their nuts for the coming cold, meaning it was the perfect time to bring them in for prey. But none was close by, so he padded slowly onward while waiting for one of his kits to reply.

Echopaw happily greeted her father silently as he joined the group of sisters and led them out into the territory. She easily kept pace with the deputy, her strong mussels rippling below her pelt. Crowstar had been training her very well, and her wisdom as rising. She was a natural fighter. Hunting... Not so much. So she would have to work over time to impress her father on this patrol. "It sure is, Rippedsky." Echopaw said just as lowely, stopping to scent the air as well.
