Home, or no?

"I suppose this is where we should start to separate the clans once more." He mused, giving Redstorm a curt nod.

Rainwhisker padded away from Redstorm finding a suitable place for everyone to rest. He yowled for his clan to join him, planning on telling them the plans he agreed on with Redstorm. He made a mental note to discuss it with Aquapulse too. If the clans go out searching for their new territories at separate times, it'd be far too confusing.

He sat down waiting for the rest of RavineClan to come.

Willowpaw trotted over to Rainwhisker, a ball of moss clamped tightly in his jaws.

"Is that for your siblings, Willowpaw?" Rainwhisker asked casually.

Willowpaw set the moss down. "Yes it is." He replied, a grin tugging at his mouth. "I was just about to go look for them."

Rainwhisker nodded and Willowpaw dipped his head in respect. The young medicine cat apprentice scurried back up the hill into the throng of cats. His blue eyes darted to and fro, searching for the last of his living family.

<sup>Redstorm looked up when he heard Silverhawk call his name. His offer of help sparked two emotions in his mind...one of gratefullness, and a hesitant tug in the depths of his stomach. In his mind, he had already started to break up into the different clans. He didn't know if he should keep taking help from the other clans, if he wanted to look like a strong leader. He was going to have to start taking care of the clan on his own, no more taking favors from the others. Now that they were 'home', from now on, it was every clan for themselves. He hated to think of it that way, but that was how it was in the old place, and he didn't believe that things should change just because they were in a new one. He glanced back at the rest of his clan, "No, I haven't seen either of them, but I will make sure she is cared for by sundown." He gave Silverhawk a quick nod, "But thank you for your offer."

Redstorm nodded curtly and went to the rest of his warriors a few tail-lengths away. A few that were mingling with the others would have to come closer to him to hear decently, and all the better. They needed to start acting like seperate clans again. The cleaner the break, the less painful the break would be. Redstorm was also a very logical cat, and he knew that if they continued to mingle with the other clans, soon they would cease to be three different clans, cease to be what they truly were. It would destroy the very basis of what they believed, and he also knew that Starclan would not approve. They had already obliterated one of the clans, and he wasn't going to let that happen again. He yowled for their attention, calling them closer to him and farther away from the other clans. He kept his voice loud and strong, bold as brass and more confident than he felt.

"Cat's of Cherryclan, we will soon begin the journey to the new territory to search for each clan's home. But for now, I need the weary to rest, and the strong to care for them. Those of you who believe that you can go and hunt for the clan, do so. Any cat that wishes to be part of a hunting party, I will meet with you in a few moments. The rest of you, take some time to gather your strength. Tomorrow, we send out cats to find each clan's place in the territory, and I hope that we will be on the move by tomorrow night." He scanned the warriors for his two medicine cats Tawnystone and Firestone. "Tawnystone and Firestone will see to any injuries that you have," Redstorm stared down at the two and gave a quick nod of his head. "Please make sure you check on the queens, the journey was hard on them and thier kits." He gave one last swish of his tail and repeated his earlier statement, "Any cat that wishes to hunt, gather here, and I will tell you where to go."</sup>[/sup]

The black tom that stood near Redstorm growled. He wasn't used to a BrookClanner leading his friend's Clan in... His mind cut the thought short. No, Nightstar was no longer the leader of CherryClan. The tom sighed. He was dead. Redstorm, much as he hated to admit it, was the leader of CherryClan now. It wasn't so much that he didn't like the tom; no, he did quite like him. It was the fact that he was a...a...well, a BrookClanner. But Ravenflight knew that it had been fair to let a BrookClanner lead, and probably the better choice, despite the fact that it was still CherryClan.

Ravenflight sighed. He moved closer to Redstorm and waited until he finished speaking. "Maybe you should keep the BrookClanners here and I'll take the ready CherryClanners out for a hunting patrol," the deputy meowed quietly, almost gruffly. He still couldn't keep his mind straight on the fact that they had merged and were now one Clan. He was still picking the BrookClanners out. "I think it would help them, and we can switch off in a bit and you can take a patrol and BrookClanners and those of us left can rest."

((Maybe we should make new threads on this board for the Clans to start searching so people can use more characters... Like, one for CherryClan, one for TealClan, and one for RavineClan.))

[Patmos]

))Well I was thinking that for the searching the patrols could go together. That way they could all have an idea of where the borders would be, like in the books. What do you think, Dark?((

[D a R K - R a H]

))Yeah, I'd split them up for now. I'd espcially like a thread for any and all kits, but, other than that, I don't care how you divide the threads. Rank, Clan, gender, ect; 't's up to you guys.((
