Tribe of Falling Stars RP Thread v.2! [open for walk-ins or anyone else!]

[Leafdawn]

<sub>Another day, another dawn.
Bright, sharp blue eyes opened slowly, and roved around the abandoned room, enjoying the warmth that spread across her lithe body as the sun rose high in the sky and cast its merciful rays across the old mattress she slept on.

Shootingstar, leader of the Tribe of Falling Stars, was quite content to lie and laze about there all day, but she knew she had many other things to do besides relaxing. Yawning widely, she got to her paws, and leaped off the bed lightly. There would be time enough to relax. Right now, there were other things to do.

She swept through the hallway and down the stairs, flicking her tail genially at anybody who said good morning to her as she passed them. The little silver tabby finally reached the walk-in closet in the warriors' den, and called to the slumbering ones: "Wake up! No time for sleeping, now. We have things to do."

The bodies on the twin beds began to stir, and Shootingstar passed them and went into the walk-in closet. Her uncle Ashcloud, who had recently been made an elder upon request, smiled at her through a mouthful of vole. "Morning, Shootingstar."

"G'morning," she meowed, and, picking up a plump rabbit, she retreated to a corner to eat her meal.</sub>

Lyrepaw was roused from his sleep from .. well, nothing.

The tomcat was a very light sleeper and was prone to waking at inconvenient times. The brown tabby stood, his ear flicking slightly to take in all the different sounds. It often caused him a headache to hear too much when he was tired, or had just woken up. It wasn't that his hearing was more sensitive than others - it was just because he was prone to getting headaches more often. That was part of the reason why he was so annoyed most of the time.

The irritable apprentice stalked from the greenhouse, his amber eyes narrowed. Why'd he have to share a sleeping place with the kits? Sometimes they yowled all night, the noisy ones, and sometimes they snuffled annoyingly, and then sometimes they would kick and yell in their sleep. He preferred the quieter kits more - oh, no, they didn't move quite so much. They were tame and mild and he just liked them better. It was good to know that he had a choice of little kiddies to make admire him.

Lyrepaw groomed his fur down, sitting just outside of the greenhouse. His pelt usually stuck up in the many times that he rolled over on his little nest, and was quite embarrassing for any other eyes.

Embertail yawned, his neck fur rising as he stretched his tired body. Dark circles were visible under his eyes, and you could see that he grown thinner by a lot since Shootingnight had left. But, he had just started filling out a bit, and his ribs were less visible now. He still looked like a wreck, however.


Shimmerstrike woke up with an ache in his crippled leg and slight cramps. He was very unused to sleeping in the elder's den, having slept for more than half his life in the warrior's den as a deputy.

[.:kirstykrk:..:TigerWolfEagle.:]

Twistedfang growled in his sleep as he rolled over and buried his head further into the warmth of the nest. He blinked grubbily as Shootingstar's shrill voice rang out into the den. Sunlight glinted off his sharp teeth and claws as he yawned and stretched. Shaking himself, he padded lazily out of the warrior's den. Eyes drooping, he followed his nose to the fresh-kill pile where he picked up a plump mouse and settled down in a corner of the walk-in closet.

<sup>Shootingstar gulped the rabbit down, and tore away at the flesh hungrily. The months of being possessed by the NightClan spirit had taken its toll on her, and she'd been recuperating rapidly, although her body was still in a frail condition. It didn't help that there had been an attack by wolves a few moons ago, right before she'd become a NightClan worshiper. She'd been possessed in a frail condition - not the best idea, really.


Ashcloud finished his vole and padded down the creaky stairs, wincing as his heavy, old paws grew weary of walking so quickly (which was moderate). So he was reduced to very slow padding along.


Whirlwind trotted lazily into the walk-in closet, yawning widely. "M - m - morning, Shootingstar," he mumbled, giving himself a quick lick.</sup>

[~Robinfeather~]

Shimmerstrike padded swiftly up to Ashcloud. Yes, he was an elder, but elders could still be fast, couldn't they? He flicked his tail politely at Ashcloud, indicating a "good morning".

[Aradia Megido]

Sapphiresong roused slowly from her nest, yawning as she stood up, albeit a bit shakily. She looked tired, but happy nonetheless, as she gazed at her daughter, Rosekit, who was still asleep. Then, she glanced at Thunderkit, and was happy to see the young tom snoozing like there was no tomorrow.

In the place where warriors sleep, Goldensoul, Ribbontail and Bloodthorn were already awake. The second deputy was heading outside along with Ribbontail, while Goldensoul sunk back into his nest to sleep some more.

"G'morning..." Bloodthorn yawned as he passed Whirlwind. Ribbontail flicked her tail sleepily before almost collapsing from sleepiness.

[~Robinfeather~]

OOC: Sapphiresong's in the nursery, right?


IC: Embertail padded sleepily to grab a piece of fresh kill.

[Aradia Megido]

/ooc:/ Uh huh.

/ic:/

"Get up..." Bloodthorn yawned, nudging Ribbontail awake and gesturing to the fresh kill pile.

Ribbontail blinked sleepily. "S-sorry..." Shaking herself awake, Ribbontail bounced over to the fresh kill pile and picked out a mouse, which she and Bloodthorn shared.

In the nursery, Sapphiresong was just about to lay her head on her paws when suddenly Rosekit was wide awake, her eyes wide open and alert as she nuzzled her mother. Smiling, Sapphiresong cooed, and Rosekit giggled before looking towards Thunderkit, who was slowly rousing.

Goldensoul continued to snore.

[Leafdawn]

<sup>Shootingstar turned as Clovereyes entered, and before the warrior could get a mouse from the fresh-kill she barked out: "Wake up the rest, will you?"


Clovereyes resisted a sigh of exasperation and turned, padding out into the warriors' den. "Hey, all," she called out wearily. "Wake up. Every one of you." She aimed a little nip at Goldensoul, who was still snoring, and turned and walked away.


Ashcloud nodded to Shimmerstrike and rasped: "Good morning, Shimmerstrike." The long hours that he'd taken to restore Shootingstar to full health had really taken its toll on him.</sup>

[Aradia Megido]

Goldensoul leaped up, bristling, before sighing and padding outside. There, he greeted Bloodthorn and Ribbontail with a weary flick of his tail before selecting two mice.

"Two?" Ribbontail blinked skeptically.

Goldensoul mewed blearily, "I'm bringing the other one to Autumndawn later. Hope she'll be awake."

"It's good to see that you're finally not fainting." Bloodthorn mewed, a hint of a laugh in his voice.

The golden tom scowled. "Not funny, you guys. Not funny at all."
--------------
"Sapphiresong, Sapphiresong, watch me!" Rosekit squealed, positioning herself in a crouch.

The black she-cat watched her daughter as she wiggled her tail, her hind legs ready to spring. Then, the little tortoiseshell leaped, and landed on Thunderkit's tail. The little tom jumped up, yowling, before glaring at his friend.

"Not funny, Rosekit!" He snapped.

Rosekit grinned, showing her relatively sharp teeth. "Aw, come on, Thunderkit, have a little fun!"

"Kits, be nice." Sapphiresong chided gently. "You'll wake up Autumndawn."

[Leafdawn]

^{Shootingstar finished her rabbit and trotted over to Bloodthorn. "Bloodthorn," she meowed in a very dignified manner. "Organize a hunting and border patrol." This was the first day of her being a real leader again; over the previous moons she'd been in the greenhouse and the Tribe had run on the cats' decisions alone.}

[~Robinfeather~]

Embertail bounded down the steps and padded toward the nursery briskly. Even though, it had been a night, he had missed Sapphiresong. Reaching the greenhouse, he padded inside and found the kits tumbling around.


Shimmerstrike chuckled. "Seems like it was just yesterday when Shootingstar decided to revive the tribe, didn't she? Ah, the old days." he said to Ashcloud, with a bit of hoarseness in his voice.


OOC: Wait, who are the kits again? I have a hard time remembering kits. Oops. XP

[Aradia Megido]

/ooc:/ I honestly don't know. I remember Rosekit, and I think Autumndawn's owner has a Swallowkit? Oh, and I think Bookie has a Sparrowkit. Then I forget. xD

/ic:/

Sapphiresong looked at Embertail, happiness sparkling in her bright blue eyes as Rosekit tumbled towards her father, giggling.

"Look at me, Embertail! Look at meee!" Rosekit giggled, tackling Thunderkit and battering him with her tiny little black paws.

"Rowdy little one, isn't she?" Ribbontail poked her head inside to check on her friend.

Sapphiresong shrugged. "Takes after her father."

---

Bloodthorn nodded, heading towards the center of the clearing. Goldensoul trotted by, holding a mouse in his jaws as he headed for the nursery.

The second deputy blinked, then shook his head before calling, "Whirlwind, I'm putting you at the head of the border patrol. Take Twistedfang, Ribbontail and I suppose Embertail. For the hunting patrol, Clovereyes can lead that, and Goldensoul and Nightclaw will come with her."

"Did I just hear that I'm on the border patrol?" Ribbontail asked, darting away from the nursery.

Bloodthorn's ear twitched. "You have keen ears, my dear."

[~Robinfeather~]

When Rosekit and Thunderkit pounced at him, he collapsed dramatically to the floor in mock pain. "Help! Help!" he cried, laughing along with the kits. Turning his head toward Ribbontail, he huffed, and said in a sarcastic, teasing voice, "I am not rowdy. In fact, they seem to resemble you more, Sapphiresong."
