ooc: hmm, I tried to post earlier, but it didn't go through. Okay... lets see what mighty Whitemoon says.  Whitemoon stared at the 3 apprentices. He curled his tail around his paws as he waited for Arrow to come.Thunderwing and Arrow arrived in the clearing to see a circle of solemn cats. "And here we are." he meowed. Arrow walked in front of him and faced Whitemoon. "I'm here. Now what?" Winterpaw held her wide eyes on the other apprentices. If they went, they could die. Didn't they realize that? Song licked her paws. "Hey if they wanna go commit suiside, thats okay!" her voice turned serious, "No, really, going there is certain death."Arrow spoke up. "They could do it with all of your help!" Whitemoon nodded. "Yes, Acornpaw, Pondpaw, Smokepaw, I will give you powers and the rest is up to you." |

OOC: aw that's ok! as long as you're on we're all happy! ^^
IC: Smokepaw glanced at the newly arrived cats before turning his serious dark eyes onto Whitemoon again. There, they were all approved to go. And yes, he knew that it was very, very dangerous. But... he would die for every cat in the forest, even the ones who's never known him. Although he's only 11 moons old, he felt like he's had enough of life, and is ready to join StarClan at any moment. Except...
He turned his gaze to Pondpaw, who shone silver like the Starclanner himself. But what about Pondpaw? And Acornpaw? He was afraid that they'll be sacrificed. Why did Whitemoon have to had let them come too? but he didn't argue, for that was Whitemoon's decision.
Smokepaw tried to settle his emotions, and stood up, facing the white tom. "When do we leave?" he asked. He knew that he had to ask all that he needed, fast, before Whitemoon weakens and disappears like he said he might. "And how would we not seem suspicious to them?" he narrowed his eyes. All the worst possible situations flew through his head, and he barely supressed a slight shiver that ran through his spine.

Pondpaw gave a small smile at the news of all three of them going, but frowned quickly at Smokepaw's question. It was true. Even if they were given special powers, what would keep the tribe from becoming suspicious. They were two perfectly fine apprentices. Why would they leave their clan. Pondpaw shook faintly at the thought of what the tribe might do if they found out what the apprentices were really up to.

"That is where Arrow comes in. She will be around long after I leave. She can help. Now, your powers. Pondpaw, I give you the power to see elsewhere," he touched her head with his chin, giving her his own power. "Acornpaw, I give you the power of mind reading," he gave Acornpaw his powers. "And Smokepaw, I give you the power of soul control," he bent his head down and wispered into his ear, "Use it wisely." Then, nodded to the cats whom he might be sharing the skies with soon, he fled to his place for a long awaited rest.

OOC: I'm soooo excited!!! lol
IC: Pondpaw gave a small and quick gasp, as Whitemoon have the slim she-cat her new power. Her emerald eyes rested on Whitemoon, as he gave the other apprentices their powers. Acornpaw got mind reading, Smokepaw soul control, and herself, the abitlity to see elsewhere. As the starclanner gave them a small nod, and disapeared, Pondpaw felt a large throbbing crawl into her brain. Pondpaw guessed that her pupils grow, and almost swallow up the silver-blue she-cat's emerald eyes. The throbbing grew, as suddenly the image of a mother licking her kits came and replaced the large oak tree before her. Then it turned to a warrior catching a flying black bird. After that, a small apprentice jumping around happily on his first patrol. The images flashed threw her mind quickly. Soon their transitions grew faster and faster, until it paused mud covered cats. They were laughing. A small apprentices or two were training with their mentors. But the mentors didn't hold back on their attacks. Pondpaw let her jaws open wide, as with each attack, the apprentices took it hard. One cat in the crowd growled about their punishment for lack of fighting sucsess. Everything seemed alien to Pondpaw. Her slim silver-blue body shook violently, as the images started to flash quickly once more. Everything was making her dizzy. "Smokepaw!!!" Pondpaw cried, as her normally graceful legs stumbled and twisted under her weight. The images now began to twist and spin into another and another. Until finally, the ground under he paws disapeared, and instead of catching her, it seemed to slam into her flank. Pondpaw lay dumbly on the cold earth, as the sight of the oak tree and the others came back once more, and her eyes became normal again. But everything was on its side. Pondpaw's breath was in short and shallow gasps, as faint tears began to slowly stream from her terror filled eyes. But the slim Waterclan wasn't just crying for what had just happened, she was crying also for the apprentices, and the fear that it might happen to her, Acornpaw, and Smokepaw as well. Now the tears came in greater numbers, as the cold wind chilled the moisture on her cheeks.

OOC: Me too! Wow! Nice post! IC: Acornpaw looked up and sighed. She had gotten over with it. It was just a momment ago that Whitemoon had given her his power. At the touch of Whitemoon's pelt, all her emotions were mixed up. As Whiltemoon started to give them their powers, Acornpaw began to shrink back again. Will it hurt? How long will it last? Will these powers survive until they leave the Tribe? A thousand of questions spurted out. Yet no matter how many of them she asked, they were all unanswered. As soon as Whitemoon had finished with Pondpaw, she took a quick glance at her. She seemed perfectly fine, at least to her. At the sight that Pondpaw made no sign of pain in her, she began to feel relieved. Relieved that everything will turn out perfectly. It was her turn now. As Whitmoon began to touch her head, the world seem to be revolving around her. She closed her eyes, feeling the sensation of Whitemoon's touch. A warm feeling lept towards her, lingering at every part of her body. Then everything stopped, everything seemed so clear now. It was soo beautiful and extremely peaceful to her that she didn't want to open her eyes again. It was just the way she liked it. The warm and comforting feeling that she hardly had ever felt before and never will feel. It was all too perfect for what every cat could ever have. That peaceful feeling. Then, everything began to change. The colors and the images, changing the mood. A streak of images passed by, too quickly that it was a blur to her. It was all soo sudden that her mind began to spin. Then a sudden odor appeared. Taking a quick whiff, she was filled with terror. She could recognize the scent anywhere. Blood. That was it. A strong image of a river of blood rushed in her. She could even hear the ripples of it crashing against the rocks. Then voices began to emerge. Kill!Kill!Kill!More voices appeared, lurking out everywhere. Her brain hurted soo much that her whole body began to scrunch up harder than before. Her eyes flew open, glad that she could escape out of the terrible image. Acornpaw took a quick glance around and took a quick whiff. Trying not to be suspicious, she could see that she was still in the Giant Oak and everything seemed to be the same. The scent that she scented before and the voices was oddly gone. Was I imagining things? Just as she was about to blurt it out, in the corner of her eyes, she could see Whitemoon finishing with Smokepaw and beginning to vanish, casting a fading of white mist upon the sky. At the sound of Pondpaw's cry, the question began to disappear. Acornpaw looked up at her with wonder. She was rather surprised with Pondpaw's reaction. Pondpaw was usually strong. What made her actually cry? Was she possibly hurt? She seemed perfectly fine a while ago. Could it be that she saw the image too? She let out a gasp. She quickly closed her mouth wondering if the others had heard her. She could understand that. Then another thought approached her mind. It could have been that Pondpaw had saw an even serious one, worse than hers. Abudent of shivers crawled up to her, making her feel as if a gust of inclement wind had just approached, making it a sign that something terrible was about to happen. She could understand what she was feeling. That terrible and torturous feeling that the others wouldn't have understand. She slowly walk towards her, careful not to startle her. With her tail, she began to wipe up her tears. "It's alright Pondpaw. Everything will work out perfectly." She whispered to her in a sweet and tender voice. That was what her mother had said to her everytime she cried. Although they were just words, the meant something special to her. It made her believed that everything will go on perfectly. That one day, she would finally be accepted by the surrounding cats. THat one day she could finally enjoy life and participate in the many wonders of the world. It would always make her smile as her mother would tell that to her repeatedly. Now it was her turn. It was her turn to pass on those words to others to make them feel better. That everything will go on smoothly during their lives. That they would live in harmony and they will forever last. One that everyone would have dream for. OOC: Score 4! lol. keeping track of all my long posts now.  I believe this is the longest one. |

OOC: WOW!!! Big post! KARMA POINT!!!!!!!!!!!! Oopse....I almost forgot Foxcloud;
IC: Foxcloud looked on as Whitemoon gave the apprentices their powers. The she-cat nodded slowly as she took in each power's name, and pondered how the apprentices would use them. She guessed that Acornpaw could find out infromation, that other cats didn't want to tell them, Pondpaw could see if maybe a patrol was going to harm any clan cats, and maybe Smokepaw could....wait, soul control? Foxcloud shivered, as she pictured herself being controlled by some other cat. The other cat could make her do anything. Maybe that was what Smokepaw could use it for! He could make a important cat back them up, if any suspicion to the three came up. Whitemoon was truly wise. Foxcloud gave a final nod of approval, as the starclanner disappeared. Just then, the slim silver-blue she-cat, Pondpaw, gave out a loud cry. The older she-cat whipped her head, as the apprentice fell to th ground. Had Whitemoon hurt her? No. Whitemoon was a Starclan cat. Just as Foxcloud was getting ready to run over to see if Pondpaw was alright, Acornpaw slowly and calmly made her way to the Waterclan apprentice's side. Foxcloud couldn't help but grin to herself at the sight of this.
OOC: I want to wait for Snowstep, before I make Pondpaw do anything more. Don’t want to kill her response!

OOC: lol thanks! ill take time for this post tho it's 30 mins till midnight now. XP btw great posts, all of u! love the powers, rosefeather! =P and love all ur posts! *gives karma for every1 again*
btw, i have a great idea! since Smokepaw's power is so... powerful, why not have it be dangerous? =PPPPPPPp that'd be so cool! im so excited im shaking now! XP either that or it's too cold in my house. X.x"
IC: Smokepaw felt a wave of power as Whitemoon touched his forehead, and a sudden urge... even though the StarClan cat specificly told him to use it wisely, he could feel the power pulling on him. It was pulling for him to control. He could feel every cat's souls that were around him... all the souls that are emplanted deep within each of them seemed so clear and vunerable to him. he could simply reach out and...
His thoughts were broken as Whitemoon disappeared, and quickly followed by the terrified cry of Pondpaw. "Pondpaw!" he hissed, knowing that something happened to her, and raced to her side. She lay on the ground, and to get to her he accidently pushed Acornpaw to the side. He didn't even notice how frantic he looked. His dark, usually calm eyes were wide as he searched Pondpaw's face for signs of what she felt... or saw. Somehow, he saw right through her beautiful eyes and into her soul, seeing that some of its usual light has gone. For some reason, the usually bright spirited apprentice had seen something so fearful that her usual shine has declined. It used up his strength simply not to satisfy his urge to take over her soul, which looked like a smooth, white aura to him. But the feeling kept tugging harder and harder at the dark apprentice.
"Are you ok?" he asked, his eyes worried. "What did you see?" he added in a whisper, barely audible to the rest of the cats. he didn't have the powers of the sight like both the other apprentices, so he had no idea what went through their heads. However, he just had this feeling that it wasn't anything good; that whatever they saw would change their lives forever.

OOC: Oooooo!!!! DANGEROUS!!!!!!!! lol
IC: Pondpaw slowly began to half heartedly (Is that even a word? Brain is dead today..... >_>') Her breath came now in longer and slower gasps, as she looked up at Acornpaw, who was talking kindly, and whipping away her tears with her pretty tail. But then it was Smokepaw that took Acornpaw's place. The tom had great worry in his eyes, as he asked the slim silver-blue she-cat what seemed thousands of questions, when it was really only two. "I saw......they......some....." Pondpaw spoke in a shaky voice, before pausing, to take in a deep breath. "Some young apprentices and their mentors.....but.....their training was harsh....and....their....their.....blood was on the ground, on their mentor's claws.....oh Smokepaw! Is that what we must go threw!?" Pondpaw still lay on her flank, her head facing the great oak tree. Pondpaw's heart felt swelled with fear and worry, as she tried not to picture her fellow apprentice friends being clawed at by their own mentors. Was this truly what they had to go threw?
Foxcloud could only look on, as Smokepaw and Acornpaw surrounded Pondpaw, who had still not gotten up yet. The wind was against the warrior, for it blew their words away. This made the older she-cat worried, and made her paws work, which showed her worry, on the cold earth. What was going on?!

OOC: sry i wasn't on again. i actually read the posts (hah ilovewarriors does too) but have no inspiration to post.
IC: Smokepaw's worry increased, but his eyes were calm now, as his dark blue orbs met Pondpaw's light blue ones. (light blue? or did i get that wrong? XP) He knew that they had to make a sacrifice for the rest of the clans, no matter how hard it'll be. "Whatever we'll have to go through, we'll be together." he whispered, his voice quiet. he crouched there, beside Pondpaw and feeling the warmth of her body, for a few more moments. then he got up with a purposeful grunt and looked around. "come on, be strong for the forest and our homes." he meowed in a louder voice, more towards the other two apprentice. "now, what's the plan?" he asked, sounding like a leader he will never be.

As Pondpaw was about to reply to her response, she felt a push. She landed with a thud on the cold dark gravel. It was hard alright. Aconrpaw sighed. What a terrible day she thought. Being scolded harshly earlier by her mother and now being pushed without reason. She grunted, wondering who had pushed her so fiercely. As she slowly staggared up, she winced at the pain. It was painful sight. As Acornpaw turned, she started limp. Every limp she made, she winced at it. She tried carefully to walk normally, making sure to others that she was alright. Now, all she wanted was to see was who would do such a thing to her. Her eyes caught on that it was Smokepaw who had pushed her. She could see that he had no attention to look at her but of Pondpaw. What a rude cat! she hissed to herself. He didn't bother asking if I was alright. She growled behind him, careful to not let him see. She forgot the terrible image and Pondpaw's weeping. Now, she focused on one thing. Smokepaw's attitude. How she thought he was a rather nicer cat, but instead, she thought wrong of him. She was soo angry that she felt like clawing him from behind, and she wanted to yell loudly at him What did I do wrong?. But she stopped herself, cautious from getting into trouble. She was tired of being constantly scolded, and she didn't need anymore to compress with the pain. She could also see Smokepaw's concerned in his eyes. That feeling towards Pondpaw, which she couldn't quite understand. But that was towards Pondpaw, couldn't he act at least a bit nicer to others at least? COuldn't he share some concern of Pondpaw's to others? It would hurt right?
The wind brought Pondpaw's whisper over to her. She sensed her quiver blending in by with her words. It was painful to hear that sort of thing. Her tempered with Smokepaw slowly disappeared and a new kind of emotion confronted to her.
Pondpaw's dream was almost similar to hers but instead of the apprentices, she saw the ocean of blood, crashing against with the rocks. A ripple of shivers pressed on against her pelt. She did not was to see that image again nor be reminded of it. It was too much to bear with.
At the sound of Smokepaw's voice, the temper with him arosed again. She could never forgive him. He didn't even dare apologize. She tried to keep this temper secret from everyone. She didn't want to act soo small hearted (Is that a word? I can't think of the right word so I'll have to stick with this one). Angry at such a small thing. But that couldn't be helped. At least, to her. I'll just not talk to him, she thought.
Smokepaw then lead in with a difficult question, one that she couldn't quite answer. Instead, she pleaded, Oh StarClan, please guide me towards the light. She felt completely lost and out of sight, her mind wondered, but each statement lead to no conclusion. She didn't bother answering his quetion. Instead, she look blankly at them, unable to decide.
OOC: Score 5:D

Thunderwing's eyes widened with horror. These young cats could die, no matter the powers. As one fell to the ground, he shivered. What Whitemoon had done was almost cruel. If only he could go, he would help protect the cats and maybe, just maybe, they could survive.
Winterpaw shuffled. She would do all she could to help them, but would StarClan even lift a paw?
Song flicked her tail. "You three should stumble across the border, act all inocent, and ask to join, that should work."
Arrow growled, "That is the most ridiculous idea. Silentkill only needs killers. Wait until the smallest patrol is out and attack them. Let one get away for back up, and let them surround you. Silentkill will be there, she'll recognize good fighters when she sees them. The rest is up to you."

Pondpaw felt slight worry creep inside her. Could she take on even a small group of tribe cats? I guess her power of sight or what ever, could alert her friends the best way to attack.
Foxcloud tipped her head to the right a bit as she set her yellow gaze on Arrow. "Sure it would work? I don't want the next gathering to be about three apprentices being killed by tribe cats." The Fireclan warriors' words seemed harsh, but she was worried for them too.

Smokepaw glanced at the warriors. what they said did make sense. if they were to get into the tribe, they would need an unfailing plan. but what....? the tribe isn't a place where they could just barge in without being suspected. they needed an allie...

Acornpaw looked up at them, planning their plans in her mind, trying to figure out if everything would work. Of course, the three of them just couldn't barge in there, it'll be too suspicious. However, she herself, couldn't come up with any plans, too afraid that it would be a disgrace to herself. Quietly, she sat, listening intently to their words.

Arrow paced. Now, the smallest patrol is usually at moonrise. But, they would all die if Kali was in it. What if? No, she couldn't go back with them, that'd be too dangerous with the Clan traitor there now... Wait! What if Fallen agreed to take them as new hunters? Arrow sat, but soon started pacing again.
Winterpaw watched the new comer pace, thinking hard. As the moon neared the end of it's path, she spoke, "We'll have to deal with this later, we all need to get to our Clans." she glanced at Arrow, hoping she didn't affend the she-cat.
Thunderwing nodded. "We can meet back here in 4 sunrises."
Song yawned. "I could take the 3 apprentices closer, and when the time is right, I could meet all of you here and take you to my sleep-place."
Arrow jumbled the idea with her plan. "I could go with you and teach them some fighting moves. Agreed?" she faced the other cats.

Smokepaw shuffled in his spot. he couldn't believe that this will have to simply end here and now. all that planning to do, yet nothing could be done. he felt so useless. and now, weak and small after Arrow said that they could be killed by a small patrol of the tribe. all he wanted to do was get on with it and finish his job. he dug his claws into the ground and frowned. but he guessed the rogue was right. nothing they could do right at this moment. so much for powers and heroism. all that feeling is gone now.
"ok, 4 sunrises."

Arrow nodded. "No be sure, once your Clans wake up and realize you're gone, everything will be harder to conceal."
Winterpaw looked at Arrow. "I'll bring some traveling herbs for the hunger. But for now I have to get back before my mentor realizes."
Thunderwing rolled his sholders. "We're counting on Song and Arrow to prepare them."
Song stepped down from the roots of the tree. "Don't worry, they'll be fine. We better go soon, ready Pondpaw, Acornpaw, and Smokepaw?"
Arrow paused. "Who is from WaterClan?"
