After we informed my clan that we would be staying in JungleClan for safety and training my clan and I began our trek to the Jungle. We were partly staying there for safety, incase CryptClan invaded, and also for training. I admit, Their camp is much bigger than ours, plenty of space for accommodation and territory for training.

We began our trek, we walked along the cover of the tall grass, the kits and apprentices grew tired from walking, and so, many of us were left with holding the kits. TangledTail grew tired of carrying AshKit and so I held my son and carried him through the grass. As we neared the stone bridge I could see a couple of JungleClan warriors awaiting our arrival, they sat perched on the stone bridge, TwistedStep paved back and forth, until she spotted FerretStar with us, she bounded over to us, beaming. "What took you so long!" She chirped as she brushed against Ferrets neck. Soon we reached the rest of the warriors at the stone bridge and together we made our way into the shady jungle. The exotic jungle birds called out from the treetops.

Once we neared the camp and pushed our way through the vines dangling over the entrance, we stepped inside to hear the chatters of the clan. BrookClan warriors gazed all around them in amazement. I spot the medicine cat, ScarletNight sitting the corner of the camp, outside the medicine den. She was rather peculiar. I trot towards her and sat down, her black pelt shining, her eyes almost red. "Are the herbs in the Med den full?" I ask, breaking the awkwardness. "That's quite alright." She speaks in a hushed tone, looking at her paws. I nod and step away, confused I slump down beside TangledTail and AshKit. AshKit rests between my paws, I play with him between my giant paws and release a breathy chuckle as he tried to bite into them and free himself of my grasp. I shifted my gaze to see FerretStar and her mate, TwistedStep together talking below the VineRock. Ferret nodded and trotted up onto her rock. "All cats old enough to scale the trees of our territory, gather under the vine rock for a clan meeting" she chirped out. As the cats began to gather around, I stretched my legs and held AshKit in my teeth. I padded over and sat below the rock with TangledTail. "As you all know by now, BrookClan will be taking refuge in our camp for now, we will all be training here in preparation for the battle." She bellowed. "We shall start training today, the apprentices shall train in groups, the warriors will be training for battle against eachother. I will now assign apprentice groups to be trained." She calls out, everyone listens intently.
"Badgerfoot,you will train FernPaw, Dovepaw and Songpaw." She chirped. badgerFoot made his way over to his apprentice group. "TansyFang, you will train RobinPaw, ThornPaw, YellowPaw and FlintPaw." The cats whoms name she called, they stood together. "I trust the rest of you warriors can set yourselves into duos, clan dismissed" she calls out and steps off the rock.

"We should begin training," Tangled tail stood up, stretching her legs and brushing her tail under my chin as she walked off, I followed behind as we trotted outside of camp. "Ready?" I nod in response, smirking and preparing myself, tail swaying in anticipation. She stood infront of me, smirking as she stared me down, unsheathing hee claws she charged forward. As she leaped at my chest I ducked down, leaving her to collapse to the earth below me. I hear her yelp out, she lay on her back with her ears pinned. "StarClan! Are you alright?" I rushed to her and stood over her. I see her blink her eyes open and gaze into mine, I tilt my head to the right, she smirks and gives her hind legs into my (no no square🤭). I Yoel out and she rolls out from under me, shoving me over and pinning me down. "No fair." I hiss under my breath. She scrunched up her nose.

We continue our training until the sunset. We yawned and started to walk back towards camp and away from the training grounds. Suddenly I hear a twig snap somewhere behind us, I spin my head around and stand closer to TangledTail. "What?" She chirps. "I heard something." I lower my head and look around. "I didn't hear anything." She trots ahead. "Go check on AshKit" I call out to her as she nears camp. I continue searching, even scaling the trees attempting to find a trespasser. Suddenly I hear the loud whispers in my ear, the same as that day in the MoonStone. "As the rain pours, the lightning will crack across the land, death will follow." A shiver runs down my spine, I take this as another sign from StarClan, their words echoing through my mind. I trudge back to camp. I reach the den that FerretStar provided for me and my family to sleep in for the time being, two warriors keeping watch out front, I step inside. Curling up infront of AshKit and TangledTail, wrapping my bushy tail around them.
