SUMMER PARTY FOR THE CLANS!

[Yoko]

(So basically, ThunderClan was getting tired of all the tension over the NOW SPLIT UP kits. So its Greenleaf and they've decided to throw at cook out on Sunning Rocks and all the clans are invited. There will be games and fish (grilled on the sizzling Sunning Rocks, and swimming out in the calm river). Enjoy!)

Rabbitheart bounded out of the Warrior's Den. This was the earliest he had awakened in weeks!

Rabbitheart: Rise and Shine everybody! We have food to prepare! The other Clans will be here soon!

Patchpaw yawned as she slipped out of the apprentice's den. She was in charge of decorations and supposed that she had better get a move on. The party would be beside the River today. She wondered if anyone would help her collect the flowers she needed.

Ravenkit bounded out towards his big brother.

Ravnkit: BRO! Spottedkit's hogging up all the nursery! He's huge!

Rabbitheart (chuckling): At least its not cold and empty anymore, right?

Ravenkit (pouting): Well...yeah, but...

Rabbitheart (placing his tail around Ravenkit's shoulders): Don't worry, he'll be too busy playing with his siblings today to bother you.

MEANWHILE IN RC....

Skunkkit: I'm not going and you can't make me!

Tanglefang: Listen you worthless scrap of fur, I'm not putting up with you all day when I don't have to. You're going to go, and you're gonna like it!

Puddlepelt (gently): Don't you want to see all your friends from the Christmas Party?

Skunkkit: NO! They smell bad!

Pebblepaw: .....I guess I'll go....*scuffles paws in the dirt*

MEANWHILE IN SC!

Snaketail: Alright, everyone has their prey offering?

Twistedclaw: I don't understand why we're taking food to THEM. They have a whole forest full of prey!

Snaketail (jesting): Tsk, tsk. It would be rather rude of us not to offer a meal to our host, Twistedclaw. Now be a gentlemen, and help Feathercloud carry a few of those herbs, they make excellent seasoning.

Lizardeye stared boredly around the camp. Eclipsepaw sat in a corner, hoping that they would forget to take her. Specklestar was primping in her den. Just because she couldn't have kits didn't mean she couldn't look attractive.

MEANWHILE IN WC....

Stormkit: Come on, come on, LET'S GO!

Creamkit: Cool it, Stormkit! My flower's falling off! *straightens yellow field flower on her forehead*

Violetkit: I don't see why you're all excited anyway...

Stormkit: Are you kidding?! My siblings are all gonna be there!

Violetkit: Great for YOU! *jealous*

Stormkit: Don't worry, Violetkit. We'll play plenty of games at the Party too.

Violetkit: *smirking* Only if you're on my team.

Bristlepaw: I'm gonna show all the other appretices how great a hunter I am!

Nightpelt (smiling): So long as you don't give away our secret techniques.

Bristlepaw (shocked): I would never!

Nightpelt (licking him behind the ear): I know, now go enjoy yourself!

MEANWHILE IN SKC

Frostwing: This is an awfully long trip.

(They had to make a three day journey to make it to ThunderClan in time)

Lightpaw: This will be the best day ever!

Shadowpaw: This is the biggest waste of time...Oh well....At least I can get a tore of Snake Rocks and maybe the Carrion Place....

[nightstorm]

[Yay! *drags in kitties* Enjoy yourselves!]

Shadowstorm padded out into the clearing, his pelt neatly groomed and shining.

Shadowstorm: At last! The big cookout!

Spiderpaw bounds out of the apprentices' den, unusually excited.

Spiderpaw: Hi, Patchpaw! You're in charge of the decorations, aren't you? You need help with anything?

BACK IN RIVERCLAN:

Tawnystorm: *yawns and stretches* My old bones can't take this wild carousing. *grumbles* Don't see why we have to do this...Don't want to have to put up with all these young'uns running around. Shameful, I tell you. Why, when I was a kit...

Swiftclaw (to Puddlepelt): Do you suppose they'll need help fishing?

BACK IN WINDCLAN:

Rivermist is busy grooming Stormkit and Silverkit.

Rivermist: No more squirming, Silverkit. You're going to look your best today! You get to see your siblings! Your turn Stormkit... *moves ominously closer to Stormkit*

Silverkit: *sighs* Mother! We look fine...

Silverkit then proceeds to escape and stands off at a distance grumbling and trying to fix her mussed-up fur.

Silverkit: Creamkit, your flower looks great! All the other she-cats will be jealous. *beams*

Russetfang: I love a good cookout...this is just what I need. A vacation...wonder if Thrushtail is excited....*wanders off to find Thrushtail*

Jaywing: *hoping to see Pigeonpaw* This shall be the best party ever!

BACK IN SHADOWCLAN:

Eagleflight is just waking up, and decides to poke Cedarfur in the side.

Eagleflight (chuckling): Wake up, lazy slug.

Thistlefur: *walks over to Feathercloud's den* Need any help? *sees Twistedclaw and smiles* Looks like you might already have help...

Dreampaw is dancing from paw to paw, impatient to be off.

BACK IN SKYCLAN:

Kestrelpaw (irritably): Don't see why I had to come...y'all could have just left me behind to guard the camp...Bunch of mouse dung, the lot of this... *brightens* Oh well. Maybe I can find a good tom to flirt with, and bring under my control...I am needing a new minion, after all....

Smudgeclaw: *is exhausted* I hope they have plenty of food....I'm hungry....And hopefully there are lots of pretty she-cats!

[hedgie]

~WC~

Crowpaw: Oh, you are not going anywhere without me. I'm keeping an eye on you this time. -following Russetfang- I wonder if Elmo could come.....-pondering-

Lightningfang: -half-asleep- Party? good. Maybe I'll find a nice she-cat.

Redpelt: -limping- I'm bringing my own rabbit, so Smallnose and I can share. -looking for Morningfrost- She'll need my help to get there.

~RC~

Otterkit: Cool! I get to see all my friends and I get to swim and, and. and...-running in circles-

Patchclaw: -glaring at everyone- There better not be anything troublesome going on.

Flametail: Aww, c'mon Patchclaw! Lighten up and have fun!

Pigeonpaw: -sneaking around and looking for Jaywing-

~SC~

Reedpaw: This might be fun. I'm sure Nightpaw and I can find somebody to mess with. -grinning-

Heronstripe: -mumbling because he has a lizard in his mouth- Clm dwn bwothew. (That was hard to type, that mumble-speak.)

Flintpaw: -Hackchokehack-

Smokeheart: I feel fat. T.T And wobbly. But mostly fat. Icepelt, can you get me something to eat?

~SkC~

Swiftpaw: Geez, I'm tired already and we just got here. I really want to nap, but then I'd be no fun for anybody so I'll wait until later.

Dawnkit: New cats! New cats! I wanna go play!

Hazelpaw: -too tired to talk right now-

Pinewhisker: Maybe I can find a tom here. None of them know me here. ^.^

ThunderClan

Mottledleaf slides out of the nursery, where she has been living to keep Spottedkit and Stonekit company though she is not truly a queen. She looks back as Spottedkit follows her out and looks over at Ravenkit.

Spottedkit: That Ravenkit is so bossy. >.> I hope he doesn't ruin the party today, Mottledleaf.

Mottledleaf: Of course he won't. :3 You should try not to be so bothered by him, Spottedkit. You might make a new friend.

Spottedkit: If you say so... e.e Is Stonekit coming out? I don't want to leave him behind.

Softstep pads into camp from the forest, where he was hunting early to gather prey for the party. His jaws are loaded with fresh kill, which he places on the pile.

Sagepaw bundles out of the medicine cat's den and spots Patchpaw with bright, round eyes. He trots over and waves his tail in greeting.

Sagepaw: Hi Patchpaw! =D I heard you were in charge of the decorations. Do you need any help? I know all the best places to find flowers and herbs!

ShadowClan

Lightfeather and Lightningclaw pad out of the warrior's den slowly, stretching pleasantly in anticipation of the party. They are followed by Brindlepelt, whose shoulder still feels slightly stiff from her injury a few moons ago, but is otherwise healed. She pads over to her sisters and looks around at the activity going on around camp. She saw several warriors and apprentices in the clearing, Lizardeye was looking disinterested (as usual), and his brothers were about, but Specklestar had yet to make an appearance, so she guessed they had a short time to prepare before leaving, and decided to head out of camp for a short time to find some fresher, more appetizing prey to bring.

Brindlepelt: I'll be back shortly. I'm going to see if I can find some prey quickly, so we can bring it along.

Lightfeather: Don't be long! ^_^ You don't want to be left behind.

Lightningclaw: She won't be late. Brindlepelt has a talent for that sort of thing. *Spies Snaketail and waves farewell to Lightfeather* Hey, Snaketail! Preparations going smoothly so far? ;3

Embereye pads over to her sister and sits by her, giving the black she-cat a sly glance.

Embereye: You know you won't be able to get out of the festivities. Our mentors will make sure that we come.

Sablepaw trotted quickly around camp, doing errands assigned to him by various warriors. He almost tripped over Spiderkit as he carried a wad of moss across the clearing, stopping just in time to keep from flattening the black tom.

Sablepaw: Sorry Spiderkit! I didn't see you there.

Spiderkit: Hi Sablepaw. I can't wait for the party, can you? *Sees Smokeheart and detours* Hey Smokeheart! Wow, looks like your kits are due any day now! Do queens always get that big? /tactless

Tallhawk: Young 'uns these days, they don't know what hardship is. Used to be in my time that we fought when we met at borders, not shared prey! Why, I remember when- *Goes on long-windedly*

WindClan

Ravenstar sits in front of his den, surveying camp and making sure that all is ready before they leave. Rabbits have been caught to bring to Sunningrocks, and every cat is already gathering in anticipation. Rowanclaw, Firepool, and Finchstep are already gathered in camp, the two toms close to their sister, who glances wildly around at all the cats.

Firepool: Here Finchstep, you should wear something to look extra pretty today. I found a gorse flower for you to put in your fur.

Finchstep: *looks around, sure that some cat is staring at her* I KNOW THEY'RE LOOKING! Something is sort of over there I HEAR THEMYESIDO- Yes, it's purple. Green. No, I'm fine. Attractive attention attracting tense tension. Yellow! Or sunny? If I do it now-

Firepool: I'm just going to put it behind your ear for you, since you seem to be busy...

Finchstep: -then they'll KNOW I'm onto them. Run away, far away... There are mountains, and the sky is blue, and so is the water, but not me. They're still watching, watching, watching, STOP STARING-

Rowanclaw: Has she even noticed? Finchstep, dear, do you want to stay here instead?

Finchstep: -AT ME! I can HEAR you doing it! Kits, sunshine-frolic! Kittens are so innocent, not like Dustfur, oh no, and ShadowClan came to take away the kits, take me away too, they'll be there, there at the forest, but we don't live in the forest, so why would we be there, the rocks and trees and water all together, together with all the Clans-

Firepool: I think this is the longest she's gone for moons.

Rowanclaw: Must be some kind of record. Hopefully she'll stop before the party, though...

Kestrelkit: Cedarkiiiiiit are you coming? The party is gonna be fun!

Ivypaw backs out of the elder's den, hauling Morningfrost out with her instead of the gentle guiding that she used to do.

Ivypaw: I don't know how you even think you're going to go to the party, Boringfrost. You'll only slow us down the whole way, probably fall in the river once we get there too.

RiverClan

Rainpaw is freshening up at the river, sprinkling the flower she is wearing with water so it doesn't wilt. She is looking forward to the party, and meeting some new toms tomscats to talk to. Spottedfur is simply catching fish by the edge of the river so RiverClan can have plenty to bring.

Streamkit: Shadowkit! Won't it be great to see our siblings again? It'll be lots of fun, I just know it.

SkyClan

Mothpelt walks a short distance behind Spottedsky and Adderstar, keeping his leader and deputy in view although he is also looking out for signs of the other four Clans. Dovetail pads near the back with her two kits, who are scampering away now and then to bother other cats and make trouble. Littlekit flicks a pebble at Leopardpaw, who whirls just in time to see the small tom hunch over with a fit of coughing.

Leopardpaw: Oh, give me a break! *Storms to the front of the group*

Littlekit: *Cough-hack*

Eaglekit: Are you alright, Littlekit? D:

Mossfrost lingers near Frostwing, keeping her eyes on him so that she can leap to help him if he needs something. Will there be dancing at the party? She wonders if the white tom would agree to be her partner if there was. Hailwhisker pads beside Lilypaw, content to be her escort over the long journey.

Hailwhisker: Are you looking forward to the party, Lilypaw? We can share a bird and finally get a look at the other Clans. c:

[Ki]

ThunderClan

Doveheart: Come along now, Mudpaw! And look lively!

ShadowClan

Feathercloud: (rolling herbs like Twistedclaw showed her) Oh hello, Twistedclaw. Care to help? (looks up at Thistlefur) Well hello, sister! You can help, if you like. (smiles)

Dusk-kit: Mother do we HAVE to go? I'm all scarred and my paw still hurts and I don't wanna go see all those other cats..

Bluethorn: Ugh...I hate these things. (mumblegrumble)

WindClan

Thrushtail: (grooming her fur) One must look her best when meeting with the other Clans! (sees Russetfang) Oh hello, Russetfang~ How do I look? (shows off)

Smokepaw: (standing beside Mousepaw) ... (blinks thoughtfully)

Flamehawk: Come on everyone, let's get this over with..

RiverClan

Leopardfang: (looking over Cindertail lovingly) You look stunning, my love. (nuzzle)

((OOC: Dude, he's seriously my only one. XD))

SkyClan

Spottedsky: Now behave yourselves, everyone! I don't want these cats looking down on us! (looks at Smudgeclaw and sighs) Are she-cats all you can think about? Honestly, where do you get it from.. (looks at Mothpelt, feels her ears burn, and looks back ahead) We should be getting close..

Smallpaw: (wondering how he can get Lilypaw to notice him) I'm just happy I'm healthy enough to come! (grins) I can't wait to meet these other cats..

Ashflower: Stay close, children...(looks at Hawkfoot) Oh, darling, I'm so nervous...what if they hate us? What if they're hostile? What if one of them hurts the kits?

Paleface: Honestly, do any of you even care?

Redbird: (talking to her son) I told you to clean your fur before we left, Adderstar...our leader needs to look presentable!

Falconclaw: (walking beside Pinewhisker) Maybe, sis. But of course, no tom is good enough for my baby sister. (chuckles and looks at Ravenfeather) Are you as tired as I am?

Stonespots: (walking beside Leafstorm) My paws are killing me! This party better be worth the travel. Don't you agree, my pet? (looks at Leafstorm, then back at Bigclaw) Hurry up, brother! We'll get separated from the rest of the Clan if you don't hurry!

Tawnykit is near her sister and mother, mumbling and grumbling about having to go. Her bad eye stares off blankly.

Tawnykit: I don't want to have to go, I'd rather stay here and help Feathercloud collect herbs...

Fogpatch pads out the warrior den, bright and happy as usual. He spots Lightfeather a bit off and, grins, waving over to the she-cat with his fluffy tail.

Fogpatch: =D Hey Lightfeather! It's going to be nice to have a break, right? Haha, not going to cause any trouble, right? C;

WindClan

[/color][/center][/size]
Ospreyfang is huddled in his corner, as usual. His tail is twitching as the tom mutters to himself.

Ospreyfang: Can't go no no nonoooo~ badbadbad cats there, diseases bad disease. don't want to die no no no DISEASES! *twitch*

Thymepaw is off bothering Ravenstar, again. he is bouncing about happily, wondering if he can do anything to help.

Thymepaw: Hey, hey Ravenstar! You need any help? I can go pick so flowers or catch some beetles... I like beetles! 8B

Morningfrost is being hauled out by Ivypaw and, as usual, agreeing to everything she says.

Morningfrost: But.. Ravenstar I said I could go... Yes I know Ivypaw, I'm only a nuisance to everyone. ;^; It'd be better if I drowned in the river...

RiverClan

[/color][/center][/size]
Mottledfur is frolicking out of the elders den.

Mottledfur: Oh this is going to be so fun~ Maybe I can find some new victims toms! ;3

Blackleaf is.. sulking, again.

SkyClan

[/color][/center][/size]
Birchclaw is... well what do you expect Birchclaw to be doing!?

Birchclaw: *stalking up to Dovetail* Your kits seem so excited, Dovetail. How about you, my dear, are you excited? >3

[Mousy]

ShadowClan:

Hawktalon was sitting in camp with Fireshadow. She was DEFINITELY ignoring him, although he didn't care.

Hawktalon: (Sarcastic.) Oh, this is SO exciting let's all go and run around in the sunlight.

Fireshadow, on the other hand, was in a surprisingly good mood. She was collecting some flowers for the she cats.

Fireshadow: Hey, Dustpaw! Do you want a flower?

Dustpaw was sitting in a shadow-y corner of camp, waiting for Snowpaw to wake up. When she heard Fireshadow shout, however, she bounded over.

Dustpaw: OK, Fireshadow!~

ThunderClan

Mudpaw has been carefully cleaning his fur to make sure he looks good. He sees Doveheart moving along and bounds after her.[/color]

Mudpaw: Oh, I'm, uh, coming, Doveheart! Wait, um, up!

Cricketwing, seeing everybody moving out for the party, looks between the medicine cat den and the group of ThunderClan cats gathering. He snorts and goes out to the party.[/color]

Cricketwing: It's better off to wait for later. Maybe I can sneak a few into my food...

ShadowClan

[/color][/size][/u][/i]

Runningfrost has been making sure everybody is getting out of camp. Nobody is being left behind because he wants ShadowClan to look great.[/color]

Runningfrost: Eclipsepaw! Get off your rear end and get moving. ShadowClan has to show up. We don't want to be rude. Get up! Reedpaw, no fooling around. Hey, come on! Don't you look like we just rolled out of these marshes! How much effort does it take to honestly get a few measly good-looking warriors! *fretting*

Cedarfur has been sleeping, forgetting that today was the party. She is nudged awake by Eagleflight though.[/color]

Cedarfur: Wazzat? Hm? Lazy slug? I'm not a lazy slug. *stands up* Okay, I'm up. What's going on?

Foxfur is preparing his kits for the party.[/color]

Foxfur: Sandkit, Swiftkit, come on! Your mother will be there. How in great StarClan's name will she think if you two aren't ready for the party? She'll think I can't take care of you two!

RiverClan

[/color][/size][/u][/i]

Badgerclaw is lumbering across the river a bit boredly and seems less than enthralled about a party. He turns to Snowfoot with a deadpan face.[/color]

Badgerclaw: Seriously. I'm a senior warrior. Why do I need to go to these things? I feel ridiculous, Snowfoot. Can't we just stay in RiverClan or something?

Bluewhisker has been awake and eager for a party but has seen Mottledfur plotting.[/color]

Bluewhisker: Ugh, that's right. I have to go with her. *shakes head* Ripplefur, come on. We need to get there early. And Tawnystorm, it's a party! Let's just have fun, okay? I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself.

Littlestream has been helping as much as she can with taking fish over to ThunderClan but has now spotted Ravenkit and Rabbitheart.[/color]

Littlestream: Rabbitheart! Ravenkit! Hey, it's been a while, hasn't it? *smiling*

Falconeyes isn't exactly thrilled about going either. But he goes and decides that a party might do him good.[/i][/size]

Falconeyes: *to self* Hm. I gues this isn't so bad. But it could be better. If I threw the party, or RiverClan in general...

WindClan

[/color][/size][/u][/i]

Owlfeather has been wandering around and sees Ospreyfang huddled in a corner. Being a good cousin, she walks over.[/size][/i]

Owlfeather: Come on, Ospreyfang. I'll be there. ThunderClan isn't that bad. I mean, not disease covered if that's what you think. *nudges* Come on, you need to come.

Mousepaw has been walking next to Smokepaw which is saying something thanks to her pudgy belly. She seems a bit brightened up.[/size][/i]

Mousepaw: It's been a while since we've been to a party, hm, Smokepaw? *pushes playfully* We should try some of the food. I've wanted to try some of the bird that ThunderClan has!

SkyClan

[/color][/size][/u][/i]

Adderstar has been leading his Clan to the party (thank goodness for RSVP messages, right?) and seems a bit agitated by his mother's... mothering.[/size][/i]

Adderstar: Really, mom? I'm OK. I'm handsome enough on my own. Besides, we're here. It's too late to do anything. I'm going to talk to the other leaders, okay?

Rosepetal has been following closely to her daughter and Stonespots hoping that they'll be even just a little romantic.[/size][/i]

Rosepetal: *to herself* Come on, Stonespots. Come on! *stalkerish*

Grasswhisker has been near the rear of the Clan and is just happy in general today because he gets to get out and enjoy the nice day.[/size][/i]

Grasswhisker: Ah, what a beautiful day, right, Creamfoot? Why can't we have parties more often?

Bigclaw has been sulking because of the attention Leafstorm has been getting and he seems to only pout more when his brother calls for him.[/size][/i]

Bigclaw: *grumbling to self* She'll be the one to fall behind the Clan shortly. *continues to sulk*

Grouseclaw has been help carry a few pieces of prey to the party and seems utterly exhausted from the long walk.[/size][/i]

Grouseclaw: *plops down* That was.... *pant*... a long.... *pant*.... walk.

Icetail has been following close to Sandcloud but has now wandered off into the crowds to see some others. Of course, he still cannot hear but seeing new cats is exciting.[/size][/i]

Icetail: 030

Leafstorm has been walking beside Stonespots a bit smugly because Bigclaw isn't near. Ouch, what a bitch, right?[/size][/i]

Leafstorm: Yeah, come on, Bigclaw. We gotta hurry. *to Stonespots* This party will be worth it, okay? Just try to enjoy yourself. *sees Rosepetal* Mother!

Rosepetal: Woops! Got myself spotted. *falls back*

Bigclaw: *caught up* Quit ordering me around, she-cat.

Leafstorm: Oh, dont' be a party pooper, Bigclaw.
