Elder's Den

We currently have no elders, but we hope to change that soon! Like the nursery, two cats will clean it each week. Chocolatefrost or I will post the cats in charge of this week's cleaning.

Leader's Den

Here is where Mintstar sleeps. It is a small, abandoned badger's den. She also makes announcements from on top of it. Please report anything you found on your patrols, and also please tell us if your apprentice is ready for their warrior ceremony.

Medicine Cat's Den

Here is where the medicine cat treats her/his patients and keeps their herbs. If you are sick, needing some moss for bedding, please come see the medicine cat here.Also, please roleplay!

Warrior's Den

Warriors have completed their training and are now full members of the clan. The senior warriors sleep on the left side, the warmer side, and the reegular warriors sleep on the right side. Every time there are new warriors, everyone must scoot over to make room, so you might be getting a little squished. You can roleplay here as well!

Apprentice's Den

The cats six moons or older sleep here. They add 'paw' to the end of their name. Roleplay here, and make sure to keep your nest tidy!

Nursery

Here is where the queens take care of their kits until they reach six moons and become apprentices. You can role play here!
Also, every month, apprentices need to come and clean out the nursery. If we do not have apprentices, then the warriors must do it. We only need two at a time. Mintflight or Chocolatefrost will announce whose turn it is to clean out the nursery on the Clan Info up at the top. Make sure you check it!!!

Results

Okay, everyone, the answers have been submitted! A huge congratulations to Blackberry, our new medicine cat! Her score was a nine out of eleven, one bonus question subsituting for one missed question. So congrats and good luck!
Also, to those who are interested in medicine cat apprentice, it is has been reserved for Featherbreeze's kit. Please see either Chocolatefrost or me in the leader's den and we will see if we can have your cat become medicine cat sometime after Featherbreeze's kit.
Onto head warrior: We have none because neither of them who entered have submitted their answers. Smallstar and Stargaze, you have until Friday of next week to answer them and send them to me and Chocolatefrost. After that, we will just pull a random name out of a hat and that cat will just be the new head warrior, if they wish.
One small note: If you would like to be in the prophecy, please report to the medicine cat den. We will announce later who is in it!
Thanks very much, and, again congrats to Blackberry! Please get those answers in, Smallstar and Stargaze!

Mintflight and Chocolatefrost of Chocolateclan

A black and white spotted she-cat ran alongside a dark brown she-cat. They kept their heads low, and they ran fast, their bellies just brushing the ground. The she-cats suddenly stop at a clearing. The couldn't see what ws in the clearing because it was surronded by thick trees. Small pods were hung on this tree. The black and white cat purred and inhaled deeply. "Cocoa pods," she whispered to her companion.
The brown cat sighed happily. "This would be the perfect place to live, Mintflight," she said. "Cocoa beans to eat-nothing could go wrong! We would lead a peaceful, quiet life."
Mintflight shook her head. "As wonderful as it may sound, Chocolatefrost, you know we can't. We have to find the clan that we're meant to be in. But," she added hopefully, "Maybe once we find them, we can convince them to move camp here."
Chocolatefrost looked unconvinced. "It seems so small, though."
Mintflight sighed heavily. "I guess you're right. Let's keep going, then."
"Wait!" Chocolatefrost said. "It's getting late. We could at least spend the night."
Mintflight considered. "Okay, but just this one night. We need to find the clan we belong in-soon!" Chocolatefrost and Mintflight pushed their way the bushes. When they scrambled out, what they saw suprised them.
Cats, cats, lots of cats! They were crouched next to bushes and random nests built of ferns and bramble. They were sharing tounges, eating prey, chasing each other....Mintflight gasped. It was just like a clan!
A brown tabby noticed them standing there with mouths open and bounded over. "Hello," she greeted them warmly. "I'm Lightsong. What are your names?"
"I'm Mintflight," she told Lightsong. "This is my best friend and traveling companion, Chocolatefrost."
Lightsong gasped. Now all of the cats's attention was on them. "I received a dream," she told them. "In my dream, a starry cat told me that the Mint of Flight and the frosted Cocoa Pod would gather us and Unite us as One." Her eyes shone with wonder. "And here you are!" She turned and yowled to the onlookers, "The Mint of Flight and the frosted Cocoa Pod have come!"
The clearing erupted into cheers. Many cats came up to greet them, saying, "I'm so-and-so, what a pleasure to meet you!" and, "We'll finally have a leader at last!" There were so many names......Sharpstone, Featherbreeze, Barkflight....
After all the noise died down, Mintflight said, "So, um, is this our clan? The clan we belong to?" Lightsong's eyes shone with happiness. "Yes! Yes, don't you see? You will be our leaders!"
Mintflight was stunned. "B-but there can't be two leaders, can there?" she asked. "I mean, Chocolatefrost and I can't both be leaders."
Lightsong dipped her head. "Yes, that would be true. One of you will be deputy." she turned her head. "Blackberry!" she called. A skinny black she-cat padded up. "Look at them," Lightsong told her. "Do you know which shall be our leader and which will be our deputy?"
The she-cat scruntinized them. Then she closed her eyes. Then she opened them. "Starclan has shown me that Mintflight must lead us," she murmured. "Chocolatefrost will lead us as well, as deputy."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mintflight had a new den. But it felt so big and empty she asked Chocolatefrost to sleep with her. It was here that they sat deciding which cat would be medicine cat and which would be head warrior.
"Lightsong was obvious at first, but what about Blackberry?" Mintflight pondered. "She seemed to know a lot about herbs. And she receives dreams from Starclan, too." She thought back to yesterday, when Blackberry had quickly treated their wounds: the twisted paw, the bloody cut, the bruised eye. Now Mintflight could barely feel the pain at all. Yes, Blackberry seemed like a very good canidate for medicine cat.
"But then there's Lightsong," Chocolatefrost argued. "She's pretty good with herbs, too. And if Starclan told her we were to be the leaders of this clan, does that mean that she is supposed to be medicine cat?"
Then there was head warrior. Sharpstone seemed like he would be the best choice, but Mintflight wanted to watch and learn before deciding who head warrior would be.
"We need a clan name," Chocolatefrost said randomly. Mintflight realized she was right. she grinned.
"I know the perfect name," she meowed. "Follow me."
The she-cats stood outside. Chocolatefrost gathered everyone. "Everyone," Mintflight started. "We need a clan name. Who likes chocolate?" There was a lot of "I do!"s and Me!"s. "Then we will be Chocolateclan!" Mintflight declared.
