Owlmind
LightningClan || 63 Moons || Senior Warrior
Not only was it still cold within the valley, but now with the beginning of Newleaf, rain was starting to sprinkle down from the clouds that hung low and heavy within the pale sky. Snow still blanketed the ground, though melting as warmth tried to flood back into the clans with the changing of the seasons, Greenleaf just around the corner.
A gray ear flicked a chilly droplet of water once it landed upon the thin appendage, the senior warrior almost regretting leaving her warm nest only moments ago to lead a Dawn Patrol, the sun just barely peaking over the wall of mountains outside of LIghtningclan’s territory. The thin pelted feline was ready for the change in weather, as she hated the cold, but being wet and cold wasn’t any better.
She ignored the faint ache of pain within her shoulder, the old injury rather annoying during rain or snow.
Sure-footed steps led the scrawny and lanky she-cat towards the Elder’s Den, a familiar rush of grief passing through her heart at the thought of her passed mentor, Russetfall. The old tom hadn’t made it to the beginning of Newleaf and his passing left not only a gap within Lightningclan but also a tear within the hearts of the cats who were close to him.
Pulling her mind from the fog of her emotions that almost caused her to faulter within her step, Owlmind shook her head before dipping inside the warm den, wide amber pools adjusting before landing upon the two elders, comfortably within their warm nests. Both were technically warrior age, but injuries took them down a different journey within their lives when it came to the clan.
Ever watchful gaze passing over the gentle rise and fall of Blazefang’s chest to where the brown and white form of Quailfoot was starting to stir. The strategic she-cat gave a polite dip of her head in respect towards the tom before dropping her jaw to speak, “Good morning Quailfoot, how would you feel about Dawn Patrol?”
Both elders had unique situations, and Blazefang had even been allowed to train an apprentice despite being retired from Warrior duties. Owlmind was aware of Quailfoot’s as well, after not only falling ill with problems within his lungs, he also experienced the aftermath of the smoke from the fire that had scorched over the beautiful moors of Lightningclan.
It was unfortunate that the effects from moons past still lingered within the young elder’s chest, but Firestar had given the white and brown tabby the choice to do as much as he felt he was able to do without over exerting himself. With the slight warm change within the weather Owlmind figured he’d perhaps enjoy a morning out without the chill stealing the breath from his chest.
There wasn’t a large different within the age gap of the two senior Lightningclanners, Owlmind only a few moons older. She had been young when Quailfoot had been adopted into the clan after being rescued from the jaws of a hungry fox, and had always been rather impressed by his dedication despite having grown up as a loner far outside the reaches of the valley.
Flickering her long tail, the gray warrioress turned to exit the warm den, not exactly thrilled to return to the wet morning that awaited her. The strategic feline took her duties as Senior Warrior very serious however, and no matter the weather or condition, she would perform the duties needed of her. Patrols happened to be her favorite, keeping an eye among the borders and looking for anything that could aid her clan if needed.
Turning her head, glancing over her shoulder, Owlmind let her near emotionless amber pools find Quailfoot once more, her voice rasping from within her throat as she spoke again, faint humor within her tone. “Hope you enjoy a damp pelt.” Whiskers wriggling in light amusement, the gray feline gave another flicker from her tail before her thin form slipped back out into the clearing of the clan’s camp and towards the entrance to the waiting moorlands. The slender form of Palescreech waiting for the gray she-cat, looking rather annoyed as the rain sprinkled down upon her.
