Springpaw takes the task that she had been assigned to by her mentor very seriously. For a long while, she just walks along the border to the camp, her movements slow, meticulous, her turquoise eyes glued on the wall as she scans it for imperfections. Orangeblossom had said she had a good eye for these things but she isn’t too sure. Either way, she doesn’t want to let her mentor down, not when she had given her such an important job! The camp barrier, to her, symbolized safety and protection. It was their last line of defense against cats or other animals that wished them harm. If there were gaps then that meant they were vulnerable. It meant kits like Fluffykit and Weedkit and Daisykit could be in danger.
When she is done walking the circumference of camp, her first order of business is to find one of the lead warriors, like her mentor had instructed her to do. Slate was too scary, Bobbie was nice but she was the mentor of her enemy, and she doesn’t know where Johnnyflame is currently so that only leaves one cat she could possibly report to. Twitchbolt. She finds the brown and tan furred warrior in camp and immediately goes to him, tail held high. Once she had told him about the gaps she had found he would know what to do about them, he was an adult after all and Springpaw had no reason to distrust the adults in the camp. They could handle anything!
"Hello Mr.Twitchbolt!" she chirps as she approaches, her tail waving in greeting "Ms.Orangeblossom told me to find weaknesses in the wall and then report to a lead warrior about it and you’re the first lead warrior I could find so that means you have to help me because Ms.Orangeblossom told me so." and she was like higher than everyone except Blazestar in the clan hierarchy so that meant they had to listen to her right? Without waiting for a response she launches into the next part of her spiel "I found five parts of the wall that seem like they could use some reinforcing, what do you want me to do?" and she looks up at him with wide, expectant eyes as she waits to be told what to do next.
// please wait for @TWITCHBOLT to reply!
Prompt is : Our camp needs strong barriers! Collect supplies and reinforce the fern-and-bramble barrier guarding camp!
