She was gone! Ivypaw paced restlessly in a secluded corner of camp, her paws all but wearing a track in the dusty ground. That elder, that stupid, useless blind lump of fur that served as one of her Clanmates, Morningfrost was gone. How was that even possible? The thing was so frail and pitiful that she couldn't even make dirt by herself, let alone sneak off for an adventure like a kit. Yet she had disappeared completely; it had been days since any cat could remember seeing her, and so far all of the search patrols had come back with nothing to show for their inadequate efforts. No pawprint or whiff of scent, not even a clue as to where she had gone. She snarled. It was like she had disappeared off the face of the earth!
Her concern was not that of a sister, of a littermate. In fact, Ivypaw would be pleased to find out that the young elder was wandering alone somewhere, afraid and miserable. Her hatred of Morningfrost ran that deep. But never would she wish death upon her sister, even if she herself was bleeding in the dirt. Never would Ivypaw wish for her the release of death, for then she would be beyond her reach, beyond the constraints of her blindness and her frail body. And if Morningfrost were to die, then she would be together with Cloudpaw, and that of all things the apprentice would never, ever allow. He should have been mine. He should have lived!
Ivypaw composed herself with an effort. Morningfrost had to be found, no matter what. If Ravenstar and the warriors couldn't manage it, then it was up to her to find and bring back her sister. She needed help, though, because it was impossible to know what she might find while she was looking. Slipping through the shelter of the gorse at the edge of camp, protected by deep shade cast by the young dawn sun, the apprentice slipped back into the den that she shared with several other cats--and proceeded to prod the ones nearest to her with an impatient paw, her voice hissing in the darkness. "I need to find Morningfrost," she said roughly, urgency in her low voice. "She could be anywhere, and none of the warriors can find her. Wake up!"
Hello WindClanners, and welcome to WindClan's first official Clan plot thread. Events that take place here are for the most part irrelevant outside of WindClan, and will reach a concise conclusion by the thread's end. Keep an eye out for posts by your friendly WindClan admin (namely me) to keep abreast of what's going on.
For those of you who have not been keeping up with Alfa's creepyness, our favorite pedo-cat has kidnapped Morningfrost, the youngest elder in the forest, and she has been missing for days. Any apprentice is welcome to join in and help Ivypaw search for clues, although whether or not any will be found remains to be seen... The setting starts in camp, but I placed it in this board since everyone will be leaving camp soon anyway.
