WindClan Camp

After a sudden fall from a high mountain, LoyalSpirit woke up, laying on his side. His orbs opened widely. 'Where am I?' he thought with an unusual grunt while standing up. 'I think I fell down' he thought when he stood up. He felt a huge wave of pain go through the veins of his right front shoulder and paw, what make him yelp lowly. His tail slowly hid between his spottled hind legs.

Pain.
Horror.

His mind flashed horrible thoughts when the pain roamed through his body. He couldn't help; if he fell down, he would receive lots of pain again. But if he stood, the pain would be less. Limping was an idea just when he took his first step after thinking about it. 'I'd rather lay down on the other side, but, please, staying in the same place? Lame' he thought with a slight chuckle before limping towards a small puddle. His leaf-colored eyes ran through the liquid's reflection and smiled.

Finally some water after long-timed adventures.

His head lowered down without planning to. He took a lap just when he heard the birds sing the morning. His ears perked when he watched how 3 birds flew down the trees for a drink. His heart beated slowly but peacefully; he enjoyed to have a peaceful connection with animals. He smiled lightly, but avoided to make any brutal movements.

It was a difficult moment, though a very adorable one.

His orbs focused on the one who was in the center. Its feathers were colored with joyful colors; it had tints of a vivid blue with strikes of white and black, then some green tips for the end of each feather. 'Hello, beauties' he thought, believing that the birds would understand by reading his eyes. The birds titled their heads and tweeted with different tones before the flew around him.

What an inspiring moment, indeed.

But then something interrupted his thoughts. Some pad steps. His green eyes opened slightly when his head raised. The birds flew off when he tried to make a step. He limped to a brownish bush. His paws, full on pain, carefully placed his stomach in the fresh grass. His eyes narrowed, slightly focusing on a brown-tinted female with lots of interesting markings. He kept his tail raised, either with his ears.

A clan? Possibly.

Though his thoughts were focused just with being connected with the nature, he though it would be good to approach the female. But, he took a closer look at the den. Pups, and possibly a dominant wolf inside. His mind flashed opportunities, but he preferred to keep away for the moment, making sure nobody noticed him there. He backed off, but accidentally slipped down with a rock.

Just what he hated.

His ears flattened slightly, and his snout wanted to release a yelp, but it was just a silent breath. 'Stupid rock' he thought, his teeth raising but not event releasing a slight sound of an innocent breath. He barely looked at the rock and backed away, then he stood by a patch of red flowers. He laid down on his left side, and laid his head by the flower patch. He smelled them at the smallest distance and closed his eyes, still aware to the sounds of the nature.

Stonewhisper settled his small frame down into a sitting position just a few tail lengths away from Skydust, as his large ears tuned into Owlfrost as she gave a simple morning greeting. Usually, he would at least acknowledge the greeting, but today a sort of eagerness was starting to take over his entire body and mind, as the power of sleep began to fade away. With each minute that passed, things seemed to settle into perspective and became distinct and clear. Instead, of focusing on just one thing, Stonewhisper found it a lot easier now to focus on multiple things at once. For instance, while listening to Skydust and Owlfrost both inquire about the Dawn patrol, the light colored male also noticed Rosepup had apparently gotten up and was now in the middle of the camp.

As the image of her becoming a full fledge Warrior came into thought, a chuckle burst from Stonewhisper’s black lipped mouth, and softly slipped out into the open. Taking his eyes away from the pup, Stonewhisper began to chime back into the previous Dawn Patrol discussion. “I can’t say that I remember who exactly was on Dawn Patrol, but I’m willing to accompany whoever else is going…if needed.”

"Excuse me, are you guys a clan?"

Rosepup's ears perked at the sound of a new voice, an unfamiliar one at that. She turned her head and looked at the newcommer with wide eyes. She wasn't sure whether she could trust the brute that had entered the camp, so she crawled back into the safety of the nursery. She kept her focus on the warriors to see how they welcomed the new wolf, mostly taking mental notes on how to handle future situations like this one. Well..he doesn't look too threatening, she thought to herself as she curled up against the den wall.

LoyalSpirit's ears perked. Though he didn't wanted to listen to many voices. He gazed at a new male. This one seemed to be a neutral warrior; what didn't pleased him. His head was lowering with the time, so he stood it up and looked at the male. 'I'd rather face a pup than this, rock flying to someone's head' he thought before twitching his nose. His snout opened, releasing a new group of words.

"Perfectly a group of wolves. I believe. Though you're all a clan."

His words were wise, though he decided to keep some of his useful words for himself, saved in his brain's chest of words. His thoughts slowly focused at the pups who were hidden inside the nursery. Around 2-3. He quickly changed his gaze to the male, awaiting an answer. 'I'm respectfully standing here, my shoulder suffering perfect pours of pain, great' he thought, his eyes always reflecting a sign of pain.

Stonewhisper did not even twitch a tail as he remained perfectly still in his sitting position. His soft gaze however, did seem to glue themselves right onto the new arrival as Skydust went about questioning his motive for being in the WindClan camp. For some that was a good tactic, and it was a well-respected one at that, but Stonewhisper preferred to analyze the situation first…before he jumped straight into a confrontation. Whether that confrontation be verbal, or physical. By doing this he was able to gain information, even if it was just a bit of information at a time. Information such as potential weaknesses, evident strength, and sometimes one could even decipher how an individual would react to certain words, or actions.


In this case, it was clear by the look in the stranger’s eyes that he was in some sort of pain. Sadly, though Stonewhisper was unable to pin-point the exact source. With a tinge of disappointment lingering in his mind, Stonewhisper flicked his tail against the ground, and opened his mouth to speak. “If you have no intent to join our clan, then I believe it would be best if you just left. For you are injured and if you display any manner of ill will toward anyone...within this clan..I fear, things would not fare well for you.” The words weren't harsh or threatening, but he had meant them to sound serious...even if the words came out soft and rather simple.

(No idea..where I went with this..XD)

LoyalSpirit listened to what this one had to say. His nose twitched, but carefully nodded wisely. 'Eeeeyup, this seems like a good clan' he thought, his eyes gazing around the pack. He looked at the male and simply asked. "Well, I have an intent to join, hope you don't mind showing me the way to your leader" he smiled. He simply waited for an answer before he sat down.

(Writer's block sorry)

Rosepup watched as both Skydust and Orchidpup left the nursery and out of camp. She was curious what was exactly out there, besides what she had heard from the elders tales. It all seemed so vicious, but in reality it looked like trees to the young pup. She shook the thought away remembering that it was forbidden for her to step foot outside the camp. She sighed and trotted to Stonestar who was still conversing with the newcommer. She sat down in between his forepaws and stared upward at the brutes, not saying a word.

Stonestar, only listened as he watched Skydust leave to fetch the stranger some herbs for his injuries. Owlfrost, was doing a fine job as a warrior and so Stonestar felt no need to intervene or really say anything further. Silently, he sat his tail twitching in thought as he pondered his new position. He was now the WindClan’s leader, and by right it was his ability to accept new wolves into the clan. However, he had not received his lives yet, and knew his first order of business needed to be going to the Moonstone. It was a bit of a long journey, but it was one that could not be ignored. And now was as good a time as any. Especially, because while he was away the injured stranger would need to rest in order for his injuries to heal, and even if he caused problems Owlfrost would be here to protect the pups.

As if the thought itself had summoned her, Stonestar looked down in between his forepaws and saw a russet colored pup. With a soft smile forming on his blackened lips, Stonestar touched his nose to the top of Rosepup’s head. “Don’t you think you are bit too old to be doing that now Rosepup?” He said gently, as he removed his nose from the young females head. “Hm, you and Orchidpup should be about six moons old now.” Stonestar, added on though this time the words said out loud were actually thoughts that had escaped his head.

"We should leave sometime today, for the Moonstone, the longer we wait to get your lives, the more risk we put the pack and you in."

He was about to say something else, but before he could utter even a single word Skydust the medicine wolf for WindClan came to sit beside him. The medicine cat was small, smaller than most WindClan wolves, but the male did a great job at treating the injured or sick. And he was generally a wolf, one liked to keep company with. With an agreeing expression now replacing his previous smile, he had displayed while he talked with Rosepup, Stonestar rose effortlessly from his sitting position without bumping Rosepup in the process.

“You are quite right, my friend. Such matters cannot be put off any longer, and I’m ready to set off whenever you are. When I return, we shall have your's and Orchidpups apprentice ceremony, and you two shall be placed with a mentor. ” Stonestar added on, the bit he had wanted to say before Skydust made an appearance before him. With once last look to Rosepup, Stonestar cast his gaze toward Skydust and gave the medicine wolf a nod...that showed he was ready to set of now.
