Stormstar opened her eyes at the sudden shock. "What? But you said..." she murmured, faltering again. She narrowed her eyes. "Thistleclaw, you never scare me like this again, you hear?!" she yowled, though there was a bit of weak humor half-hidden in the words. She lunged for him, claws sheathed, as if trying to drive him back to camp.

Thistleclaw's yellow orbs widened and he lept backwards, smiling. "Come on now, you can do better than that." The tom whirled around and sped away, paws flicking sand into the blue domed sky as he raced towards the camp.

Stormstar raced after him, eventually catching up and ramming him to the ground. She pinned him, stormy gray-green orbs gleaming with laughter. "Is that good?" she teased, then got off and walked away towards camp. She flicked her tail in signal, a sign for him to follow.

Softsky appeared at the entrance of DuneClan camp. SHe was going to collect some Marigold. Lately, she has a lot on her mind, and tends to collect herbs most of the time. Keeping to herself and wander through her thoughts. When she saw Stormstar in her state, her old briskness came back into her eyes. "Stormstar, you're part of the reason I collect so many herbs." she mewed, her eyes teasing. "Come to my den, and we will fix you up." She padded away without seeing if her leader was following.

Thistleclaw followed Stormstar, then looked at her as Softsky padded away. "Go on, I'll talk to Russetpelt, Auburnsheen, and Desertstorm that everything is alright." The tabby tom purred, nuzzling Stormstar with his muzzle. He could only be so happy to know everything between them was mended.

OOC: What about Sleetfall, Amberheart, and Aridsand? They wanna know too.
Stormstar's eyes flashed. "Remember, don't forget Sleetfall, Aridsand, and...Amberheart," she rasped, then turned and followed Softsky.

"I won't Thistleclaw purred, then called out for their sons and daughters. Russetpelt and Auburnsheen thrust through the warriors den and headed towards Thistleclaw, eyes expressing their confusion. Desertstorm trotted through the camp entrance, carrying scropions in his maw. The tom's yellow eyes flashed with surprise at seeing Thistleclaw, but came anyways.

Stormstar just nodded in reply, vanishing into the medicine cat's den.
Sleetfall saw her mother enter, but also heard her father's call from outside the den. She pushed her way out past Stormstar, eyes questioning. She padded over to him, flicking her tail in confusion. "What is it?" she querried, tilting her head to the side. She beckoned with her tail for Amberheart to follow her.
Amberheart limped out after Sleetfall, and came up beside her. Her gaze burned with question, but she remained silent.
Aridsand cracked open his eyes, yawning enormously. Getting to his paws, he gave a long stretch, then walked outside into the blinding sunlight. He blinked until his eyes adjusted, then trotted over to his father.

Thistleclaw smiled at his sons and daughters, beginning lightly, "You all may know that your mother and I have been going through some rough times right now." Desertstorm nodded, knowing of this more than any of the others. Russetpelt stared quizzically at Thistleclaw, meowing, "So, what's going on now?"
"Nothing. Stormstar and I have made amends and plan to keep things peaceful. We only wanted to tell you all this so you do not fret anymore." Thistleclaw replied.

Sleetfall had been holding her breath the whole time, but now she exhaled with relief. "Good," she mewed, eyes glowing with happiness for her parents.
Amberheart dipped her head slightly. "That's great news," she mewed, voice emotionless and eyes facing the sand beneath her paws.
Aridsand grinned from ear to ear. "Excellent!" he exclaimed.

Thistleclaw smiled. "Now go one and hunt, or patrol, or something. But Amberheart, I want to speak to you for a moment." The brown tabby tom's eyes held no secrets, but only quiet authority.

Amberheart's gaze swept up towards him. She was silent for a moment as Aridsand and Sleetfall shuffled away. Finally she spoke. "Yes, Thistleclaw?" she asked.

Thistleclaw waited as Russetpelt, Auburnsheen, and Desertstorm all left, their nearly identical fur pressed together as they conversed. Thistleclaw turned towards Amberheart, his yellow orbs softening. "I want to know how you feel right now. What is going on in your mind? I can tell you seem confused."

"Confused, yes," Amberheart murmured, "And...mixed others. Hate, spite, revenge, and...knowing." She blinked. "Why do you want to know?" she added, a bit skeptical. Her tail flicked and her amber eyes blazed as she looked into her father's yellow ones.

Softsky watched Amberheart and Thistleclaw talking while she put cobwebs on Stormstar's fresher wounds. She made a sound of annoyance. "Stormstar, half of your wounds infected. Please, as your medicine cat, please stay out of trouble." She took some Marigold, chewed it, and put the poltice onto her wounds. She looked at Sleetfall. "Can you please get some Ferns, to clean the wounds, please."
