Sageheart
The deputy blinked and nodded, standing up.
"Big travel party, huh? Will do. I'll round up patrols as well." He nodded his head and followed his leader out to the rest of the clan, clearing his throat, his whiskers twitching as he came towards a spot in the clearing where many of the warriors ate their meals.
"Alright everyone, I am rounding up patrols for the day. Streakpelt and Shadowdancer, you will come with me to patrol most of the territory though we will focus on the southern edge of the territory where the Twolegplaces are. We've neglected to patrol that area and we never know what could pop up from there." He nodded at the two cats before looking at the rest.
"Glacierbreeze, Streamrain and Leopardstorm, you will be the second patrol and you will focus on the other northern edge of the territory looking for any trespassers and anything else. I expect my patrol to be ready soon to leave. I implore you to patrol thoroughly and send a message to me or Stormstar should you see trouble, as you already know. Shalepelt," He looked at the smaller cat, who lashed her tail, most likely for not being called on a patrol.
"And...Spottedrain..." The tom looked around and sighed, knowing the warrior was probably with his mate and kits.
"Shalepelt could you let him know that the both of you will be accompanying Stormstar and your apprentices to travel. Be ready for the journey. That's all." Sageheart sighed and relaxed, giving the warriors a warm look that portrayed his gratitude to the cats' hard work. He began heading toward's the apprentice's den to look for the three apprentice's Stormstar wanted him to call for. He found Viperpaw finishing up his meal, clearing his throat as he approached the younger cat.
"Viperpaw, I hope you ate well. Stormstar requests for you, Winterpaw, and Emberpaw to prepare to travel with your mentors to the Moonstone. Now..uh..." Sageheart looked around the den.
"Would you happen to know where the other two are?"
Shalepelt
Shalepelt rolled over onto her belly and twitched her whiskers in amusement.
"Oh shush. Didn't kill you, did it?" She sighed and moved closer.
"Atleast you picked a good one~!" And with that, Shalepelt ate and shared her meal with Steakpelt, feasting on the plump mouse happily before she gave a sigh and rolled to her side, stretching her small paws.
"Thank StarClan for this lucky day of happy eating!" The she-cat batted at Streakpelt's shoulder playfully.
"Thanks for picking out a good one too~" She mewed, before perking up a little as she saw Stormstar and the deputy Sageheart step out from the leader's den.
"Wonder if Sageheart's rounding up patrols for the day. Maybe you and I could join one? Ya know, to get you off your butt and help around." She said it playfully, looking at Steakpelt and nudging the tom lightly.
With that, she noticed the deputy walking over and she sat up a little, ready for a patrol. As Sageheart called several names, not hearing hers, she huffed a little and not being able to go out again despite her earlier comments on being tired. Though she did look at Streakpelt and nudged him playfully as the deputy called him on a patrol. In the end, Shalepelt nodded at the deputies instructions. So she would be going with Stormstar today? Seemed exciting. She looked at Streakpelt again as Sageheart walked off, his stride always proud.
"So, looks like you are going on a patrol after all. And with Sageheart too. Guess no slacking could happen on your part....but then I guess I'm going with Stormstar so the same could be said for me..." She chuckled as shrugged before getting up to stretch.
"I better go tell Spottedrain about this. Good luck Streakpelt." And with that the she-cat walked off to the nursery, peeking her head in to call for Spottedrain, not going all the way in, knowing how crowded it was at the moment. She shied away from any curious kits. Sure she thought they were precious to the clan and important, but she never seemed to take after being around the young ones. She could barely imagine how she could keep an eye on an apprentice, although that seemed like it was going well in her eyes.
