River || Tom || 23 moons || Rogue || Mentions: N/a || Tags: N/a || Open

River shrugged to the tom. "Good thing I am not from this part. I traveled here about a moon ago. If what you say is true then that would explain a incident i had a few days ago." he mentions almost speaking to himself. He seemed rather happy that this tom seemed peaceful as well. This... Chipper... could make a possibly good friend for him. Maybe this was destine for him as well. Oh well! "Nice to meet you Chipper would you care to chat before you go? Its been a while since friendly company passed my way." he asks with a chuckle. He had heard rumor of more cats around here though.. It was the reason he came near here. But sadly he only believed most would be angry scary cats wanting him to leave. Good luck to that he would say to them. He wasn't the scared type. He was only really scared of cats he likes. Or at least the thought of having a molly he likes next to him. But he doubted that would happen to him...

Hopestar || Leader || Tag: Shadeheart, Tansyvine, Thistlepaw || Mentions: Open

Hopestar stood up to continue leading the patrol downriver. She set to ignore Shadeheart's antics for now: they needed to focus. At Thistlepaw's mention of foxes, Hopestar let out a huff. "If we see a fox, we cannot allow it to stay in RainClan's territory. They'd love to steal kits or timid apprentices for a tasty snack." She wasn't trying to scare the apprentice, just trying to put things into perspective-foxes were nothing to joke about. "Let's continue downriver."

Feather || Rogue || Tag: Open || Mentions: Ghost

When the tom failed to respond to her, Feather backed away into the undergrowth. She returned to her original plan: follow the river. The sun gleamed on her cream and ginger tabby pelt which certainly didn't help her to blend into her surroundings. She dropped into a hunting crouch as she found her way back to the river. Once she could see its rushing water, she started upriver in the hopes of meeting the clan cats.

Tansyvine ~Warrior~ Tag: Hopestar Thistlepaw Shadeheart
The she-cat looked up to Hopestar and nodded at her more serious answer. She glanced over to Thistlepaw hoping it didn't rattle her too much. At the mention of moving downriver she grew quiet and got to keeping an eye out, "Of- course, sorry for not paying attention Hopestar." she replied gently.

Chipper ~Rogue~ Tag: River
Chipper glanced to the side before stepping into the small clearing. He wasn't too interested in what the other cat had experienced but it wasn't too late in the day so he would have plenty of time to look for a place to sleep soon. *So this... River guy got here a moon ago hmm?* he thought. Not that it was any of his business but in the slight back of his mind he wondered if this cat was a wanderer like him... maybe he knows of a good spot to stop at in his travels... The shorter tom looked back up to the other cat, "I don't have anything better to do so i guess i could sit for a while." he said un-excitedly.

Seeptail | She-Cat | Warrior | 35 Moons | Location: Camp | Mentions [Direct]: Sootpaw | Mentions: [Indirect] Hopestar, OPEN!

Seeptail stood behind Sootpaw as she listened to Hopestar's words. She turned to Sootpaw. This was his first official hunting patrok. She bumped her flank into the apprentice's own. "Well, look at you Sootpaw! Are you excited?", she asked the small apprentice. Seeptail flicked her tail back and forth with a small smile across her muzzle. She was happy to be able to bring Sootpaw with her this dawn. The Russian Blue she-cat flicked her ears and looked around the camp. The clan was struggling in numbers this time around. She frowned slightly.

[OOC//Is Seeptail Sootpaw's mentor??]

Cosmos | Tom | Rogue | 33 Moons | Location: Forest with Smokey | Mentions [Direct]: Smokey | Mentions: [Indirect] OPEN

Cosmos smiled while still looking down. "Now, now, no need to get defensive...Smokey", the Siamese tom purred and then stood again, "Unless you want something to be defensive for". The tom smirked and stanced himself, ready for anything. Cosmos knew he was petite, but he wouldn't go on without a fight. "I'm just trying to live here", he smiled, well, the best an insane cat could possibly smile. "This doesn't have to end in a fight, I'll just take a leg off that rabbit". His gaze shifted back to the rabbit that was not under Smokey's stomach. 

Kestrelheart {} Female {} Warrior
|:| Mentions: N/A |:|

A ginger she-cat lifted her chin, her jaw closed tightly as she let out an internal sigh, her tail curled neatly around her forepaws. Her eyes, almost translucent in this lighting, flicked back and forth as she scanned the forest.
She was sitting on a ledge over Rainclan's camp. The feline watched as some clanmates went off on a patrol. For now, until she was addressed or mentioned, she would stay and watch deep into the trees.
Kestrelheart had been like this for a while. In the morning, she washed her face and refreshed herself, then came up here. It was her favorite spot to be by herself, but as the apprentices became more adventurous, she feared that her lonesome spot would be spoiled.
Taking this into consideration, the she-cat stood and stretched, not letting out a sound. She made her way down the rocks, her tail wavering to balance her. As she hit the shadows towards the bottom, her eyes drastically changed to a deep sky blue, their natural color. Her pupils narrowed, she looked too and fro, curious as to what needed to be done.
Still, Kestrelheart would wait, her Falco sparverius remige twitching with the breeze like a solitary flag behind her ear. She would wait, that is, until she saw her little apprentice, Weepingpaw. With a light smile, she padded towards the small she-cat. Coming up behind her, she rubbed her cheek on her apprentice's shoulder with a light purr. "Good morning, Weepingpaw."

Dusk {} Male {} Loner
|:| Mentions: N/A |:|

Walking through the forest with quiet pawsteps, a light-hued male trailed through the trees with memorized precision, keeping clear of obvious landmarks of Rainclan. He could hear members of said clan now, talking far off in the distance. Any rogue would hear them coming from lengths away. They could flee, yes, but they also had to hope that they didn't know how to follow scent trails very well, or that they'd left soon enough.
Dusk, not one to boast, kept his tracking skills to himself, as with everything else in his life. He enjoyed the solitary life, hence why he hadn't sauntered into the clan, demanding a place in the rankings.
Shaking his head as he walked, he replayed the scenario in his head. Of course, if he were to go, he would enter meekly and humbly, and if he were told to leave, he would certainly do so before his addresser finished their sentence.
The fluffy tom leapt onto a tree stump and looked down at the rings. He traced the lines with a forepaw, marveling at how old this giant was before it fell for any reason. He could see the rest of the tree a few tail-lengths away. Sitting down, Dusk tilted his head up and sat back on his haunches, closing his eyes as he inhaled deeply, taking in the ancient stories around him.

(@xena yes, Seeptail is Sootpaw's mentor. I post mentors in the sign-ups under the current ranks. This is a good reminder to everyone to check that out because I believe every warrior has an apprentice!)

Smokey || Rogue || Tag: Cosmos

Smokey bared his fangs at Cosmos with the hint of a snarl. "You think you can intimidate me that easily?" Smokey growled, his amber eyes studying the other tom. He was bigger than the tom, so therefore stronger. But Smokey wouldn't dare allow himself to underestimate Cosmos. There seemed to be an attitude about him that Smokey didn't trust. Perhaps if Cosmos had approached him with a different attitude, he might've been more keen to share. But now the tom was downright challenging him.

Thistlepaw [She-cat / Warrior Apprentice]
 Mentions: Tansyvine/Hopestar/Shadestep

Thistlepaw's eyes widened in surprise at Hopestar's words. Though the apprentice felt overjoyed at the fact her mentor had praised hearing how dangerous they could be made her excitement over meeting anything dangerous had gone away.

"Maybe seeing one wouldn't be a good thing after all. Though I guess we're lucky there are no kits in the clan right now." Thistlepaw added. She found it kind of strange to not see kits around still as her old home almost always had a litter in the warmer seasons. She did still hope to see anything new and exciting still.

[ OOC// do you think dawn patrol or hunting patrol could find them fighting or whatnot then break it up? Just so no cat gets seriously injured and it gives up leeway to be invited to the clan itself?]

Cosmos | Tom | Rogue | 33 Moons | Location: Forest with Smokey | Mentions [Direct]: Smokey | Mentions: [Indirect] OPEN

"Well, if that is a no, I'll have no choice but to pry it from your claws", Cosmos dropped his smile and paced a bit before looking back up at Smokey. Without hesitating, the small Siamese cat bonded towards the other tom and rabbit. Cosmos would rather not get hurt, so he dived under the tom in an attempt to grab the prey. Instead of grabbing it, he slid under Smokey and the rabbit went soaring into a nearby bush while Cosmos tumbled for a second before pouncing back on all fours. He narrowed his blue gaze on Smokey and bared his teeth, hissing at the other rogue while trying to creep closer to where the limp rabbit fell. 

Shadeheart || Warrior || Tag: Hopestar, Tansyvine, Thistlepaw

The warrior twitched his ears as he turned his attention towards Hopestar as she spoke to Thistlepaw in response to the fox comment. He gave her a nod as she mentioned that they continue downriver with their patrol. He gave the other warrior and her apprentice a nod before he turned to follow his leader on their patrol. After all, they had duties to attend to and a territory to keep safe.

River || Tom || 23 moons || Rogue || Mentions: N/a || Tags: Chipper ||

River seemed to be happy to have the tom stay awhile. Loneliness was a ever-growing worry for him. "Well then. How about we speak of something that drew me to this land." he says as he stretches before hopping down from his log. He sat down below the perched log with a calm grin coving his face. " I heard a few rumors of a large group of cats living here. I wanted to see if these rumors are true. Seems no one really knew if it was true back at my home land so here i am." he says with a chuckle. "Do you happen to know if these rumors are true, Sir?" he asks. Looking over his new chatting buddy he could tell that Chipper was a bit on guard but that didn't really change how River would act. He was acting like his Mama taught him so he was doing it right.

Weepingpaw || She-cat || 8 moons || Warrior Apprentice || Mentions: N/a || Tags: Kestrelheart ||

The small molly almost jumped at the sound of her mentor popping up behind her. After realizing who was there Weepingpaw gave a small giggle. "You scared me Kestrelheart..! Good morning to you too." she said with a soft smile. She wasn't really one to like being spooked but if it was her mentor she guessed it was some sort of training to expect the unexpected. "Can we go training today Miss Kestrelheart?" she asked shyly with a soft grin. The blue and white molly really wanted to practice her hunting skills as they were what she did best. But if it was training day for battle training that was alright too. She would just have to try as hard as she can! 

Though in Weepingpaw's heart she really just wanted to be a good as she remembered her papa was. Her papa was a cool, great cat! Then again she also wanted to be as good as Kestrelheart as well. Kestrelheart was rather young but the warrior seemed to be really good! Good enough to get a apprentice this early even! That must be so cool.
