// Early Dawn::Chirping Robins:: Broken Roses//

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw padded out of the apprentice den and yawned. It was very early; just the time when he was awake and nobody else. Smiling to himself for another successful awakening, he raced out of camp as usual and out into the territory. Breathing in a breath of warm new-leaf air, he looked around and spotted the flower bush he had been recently stealing from.

It was covered in little white flowers that Robinpaw couldn’t possibly have named even if his life depended on it. But, they were beautiful and that was all that mattered. He gave on the most bright and beautiful flowers to Dawnpaw because she was so right and beautiful. Yes. Very beautiful.

Padding over to it, he plucked a new stem off with three small flowers on it this time and made his way back into the camp with the stem held gently between his teeth. Padding as quietly as possible to the medicine cat den, Robinpaw placed the stem down at the entrance and turned to high-tail it back to the apprentice den.

Peeking out of it he saw that nobody in the camp had moved yet and he had successfully accomplished another of his secret ‘Dawnpaw Surprise’ missions. With a nod, he padded back over to his moss bedding and lay down for another wink of sleep.

{{Dawnpaw you can post here then the two of them can go out to the border or something and meet whichever of Sel’s cats she want to use.}}

[Dawnpaw]

"What's this?"
Dawnpaw was walking back from the nursery, she was chatting with the queens. Well, the queens who weren't scolding their kits, at least. After that she started playing with the kits, as always. They had memorized the time she would come, right as soon as she walked in, they pounced.

Now, at the entrance of the Medicine den, the young tabby apprentice had found small, beautiful white flowers. She let out a small purr and picked them up, and padded into the den. Dawnpaw had been getting small little 'presents' lately, but yet she could quite tell who they were from, there was individual scent on the flowers, only a small hint of the Clan scent. Dawnpaw sat down and gently set the flowers down. She started to weave the flowers into her bedding, she had taught herself to do that, using only her claws.

As soon as she was finished, she bounded out of the Medicine den, heading straight toward the apprentice den, wanting to talk to some of them. She walked into the Small, dark den.

"Hello?" she mewed softly, "is someone here?"

[Okay, sounds great.]

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw peeked one eye open then quickly closed it pretending to sleep. He dozed off lightly for a few minutes until paws padded towards the den awakening him again. Looking up and lifting his head, Robinpaw saw Dawnpaw poked her beautiful head into the den.

“H-hiya…er, Dawnpaw!” he stuttered, quickly scrambling to his paws. The apprentice den was empty because Mothpaw and Hazelpaw had both passed away leaving him and Dawnpaw as the only Cascade Clan apprentices. It was sad really but Robinpaw was much too preoccupied at the moment to remember that.

“E-er, h-how are you this morning?” he asked giving his chest a few self-conscious licks.

[Dawnpaw]

"I'm Great, Thank you!" Dawnpaw purred, walking toward Robinpaw and sitting down in front of him.
"I was just paying with the kits this morning, those little furballs, they are so cute." she mewed. She looked around the den, it looked so empty with out Mothpaw and Hazelpaw.
"Oh," Dawnpaw stammered, noticing that Robinpaw had been sleeping before,
" I'm sorry if I woke you."

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw ogled the pretty little she-cat barely hearing what she spoke. It went in one ear and out the other only catching a few words. Kits. Wake. You. Sorry. Then he snapped out of his unconscious state and blinked a few times.

“U-uh? What? Oh no! Y-you didn’t wake me. I was already awake early this morning.” He nodded. “Hunting for the clan you know.” Then he puffed out his chest and grinned at the she-cat hoping to impress her. In truth, Robinpaw didn't even know where his mentor was. Amberheart hadn't been anywhere near here for awhile. The big fur-ball was probably asleep, he purred amusedly.

Robinpaw then stood and padded out of the den flicking his tail for Dawnpaw to follow. It was too dark in there and he wanted to actually see her when she spoke. Then an idea came to mind and Robinpaw bounce out the last few mouse lengths. “Oh, oh!” he exclaimed. “Dawnpaw! Let’s go out and explore the territory! Doesn’t Fernpool need some herbs or something? We can get ‘em!” he exclaimed overly excited.

[Dawnpaw]

"Oh, Okay good." Dawnpaw meowed. She listened to him speak as he got up and walked out of the den.
"Well, Okay, I guess we can pick up whatever we find, Theres always room for more herbs."
Dawnpaw quickly got up and shook off some of the dirt that had gotten on her fur, and padded out of the den after Robinpaw. She started to think about where they could go...
"Oh, I know where we could explore! Fernpool had shown me the borders yesterday, and I saw some herbs near the MireClan border, What do you think?"

{I Bolded the Speech parts, I noticed how hard it was to read.O.O}

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw beamed. “Yeah! Let’s go there!” He exclaimed eagerly then puffed out his chest again. “And don’t worry. If we get attacked, I’ll protect you.” Robinpaw grinned cheekily and turned to pad to the exit of the camp.

There was still nobody awake in the camp seemingly and it was pretty quiet. Robinpaw was excited though because he and Dawnpaw where about to go on an adventure! And to MireClan too. Amberheart had ever only taken him out once to visit the boarders but he knew enough to go exploring a little.

[Dawnpaw]

Dawnpaw let out a small Mrrrow of amusement.
"I'm sure you will, Robinpaw." she purred. The Tabby apprentice quickly padded to catch up to Robinpaw, who was already at the entrance. Looking over to the Orange tom, Dawnpaw gave him a small nod, before running out of the cave and into the forest. Like always, she quickly tasted the individual scents of the trees, the water, and the prey and flowers.

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw blinked in confusion as the tabby apprentice raced past him then stopped. With a tiny growl in playfulness he raced after Dawnpaw and out into the territory. “C’mon!” he cried flicking his tail to the right. “It’s this way!”

Then, without waiting for a response, Robinpaw leapt away with a huge bound and raced into the bushes. He ran along the territory and listened as his pawsteps pounded heavily through the undergrowth. With a wrinkle of his delicate nose, Robinpaw softened his steps and kept up the pace. He only stopped once he arrived at the MireClan border.

{{Here Sel can start posting. Sorry its short – ill try and do better next time.}}

[Dawnpaw]

Dawnpaw quickly skidded to a halt, her paws flailing, stirring up all of the Dark green leaves. She turned her head to where Robinpaw had just fled. She let out a small purr of delight as she dashed off toward the Border.

Arriving, she stopped at a large bolder. She turned her head a couple of times to each direction, Left.Right.Left.Right.
"Robinpaw?" she called.
After that, she looked at a small orange speck on the horiozon.
"Oops..." Dawnpaw mumbled.
She quickly ran along the border, headed for Robinpaw.

After Finally getting there, Dawnpaw lied down, Panting. She didn't say anything at that moment, she was too tired to speak.

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw pranced in place staring over the MireClan border. His paws began to make little holes as he churned the earth beneath them. Looking over at Dawnpaw, the tom grinned.

“Cool isn’t it?” he exclaimed loudly. Suddenly approaching pawsteps caught his attention and Robinpaw swiveled his ears. It was coming from the direction over the border and carried the scent of MireClan. His heart began to race wildly and Robinpaw crouched as best he could pressing his ears flat against his head. He had never before fought anyone and his mentor hadn’t taught him anything besides hunting really.

The pawsteps came closer and closer and Robinpaw’s fears began to climb. Suddenly he remembered the beautiful she-cat that was beside him. Jerking up straight again, he raced over to stand in front of her and crouched as best he could once again. “Careful Dawnpaw.” He whispered ears still pressed flat. A sudden sense of clan loyalty rushed through him and Robinpaw knew that if this was an attack, he’d be ready to fight only if to stall the patrol and let Dawnpaw escape to warn the others.

This was it…

{M’kay, Sel you’re up.}

[Dawnpaw]

"Hmm? What's going on?" Dawnpaw whispered, her high voice slightly shaking.
She slightly tasted the air, like Fernpool had showed her, and realized what was happening.
"Ro- Robinpaw? Is, is there another cat here?"

((Sorry for the short post...))

[Fernpool]

The young tom flicked his ears as the sound drifted away. Perhaps he had been mistaken. Letting his fur lie flat, Robinpaw sat and gave his chest a nervous lick before turning to Dawnpaw. “No, I think I was wrong.” He said sheepishly before looking around. “Let’s keep going Dawnpaw.” He said and stood eagerness returning.

[Dawnpaw]

"Oh, Alright then." Dawnpaw meowed, starting to pad along the boarder, "Where should we go next?"

[Fernpool]

Robinpaw's ears flicked back and forth a moment before the kit actually let himself relax. Turning to the beautiful she-cat, he blinked and bowed his big head to the ground thinking.

"I'm not sure." he said. "Where do you want to go?"
