Mercuryrose Shadowclan Deputy
Narrowed dark green eyes were watching the Shadowclan clearing, her feathery tail was flicking back and forth slowly as she was observing her surroundings. It had been almost a moon since Pantherstorm and Copperheart’s failure in taking over the clans, and life seemed to go back to somewhat normalcy. Except, the trust was broken within the Shadowclan ranks. News of Juncostar’s affair with Hawkstar was revealed during the gathering, causing Mercuryrose to feel a sense of betrayal from someone who she considered her best friend at one point. Rising from her position, the large Maine Coon deputy stepped out within the shadows and into the clearing. It was time to go over the border patrols with Murkywolf, the dark warrior was due back to camp soon.
It wasn’t until she spotted Juncostar that caused her to stop for a moment.
The deputy usually avoided the Shadowclan leader, choosing to send Ravenclaw to give the small tom her reports for the day. Of course, Juncostar would attempt to speak to her but she would dismiss herself to another area within the camp or simply leave. The once trusted bond between leader and deputy and friends were broken, leaving a currently empty shell. Not even Waspsight could fix it, as the deputy was too stubborn to listen to her medicine cat’s words. Knowing that the Shadowclan leader was staring at her, Mercuryrose turned the opposite direction and began padding towards the entrance of the camp. Was it childish that she was avoiding Juncostar? Yes, it was. But after months of trust and friendship to only be betrayed by the first friend that she made in Shadowclan.. It took a toll on her, she went through a lot of things in life but this one had hurt.
Mercuryrose
Shadowclan Deputy
The black and rose-gold Maine Coon molly’s eyes were narrowed, her feathery tail lashing back and forth. Mercuryrose just wanted to get away from the Shadowclan leader, to at least be out of camp to be productive somewhere else. The reason why she was so hurt by Juncostar’s actions? The tom was one of her best friends and their working relationship was based on trust, which he broke. The deputy could almost take pity off the leader, but he had done it upon himself with his selfish actions. Letting out a snort, the Maine Coon shook her head slightly
“I don’t even want to be a deputy anymore with all the shit that you pulled.” Mercuryrose said, rolling her eyes. For all that she cared for, Mellowfrost could become deputy again. “Because of your actions, you never throught about how it effected your clan and loved ones.. Instead you thought about it with your rear end, which has caused not only the other clans to look at yourself in a different view.. But you caused a good amount of our clan mates to lose their trust in you as well, they had to find out at the gathering!” Mercuryrose snapped, shaking her head in disappointment towards him.
That’s when she found out too.
“You keep secrets and don’t think about the consequences when it gets exposed, you don’t only hurt yourself but the ones that care about you.” Mercuryrose said calmly, looking at the tom with an unreadable expression. She didn’t know where her relationship with Juncostar had stood, it was pretty much broken. “Might as well demote me, because I don’t know how our relationship and friendship will be repaired after all of this.. I always told you that our relationship would work on trust.. You broke that along with our clan mates, so you might as well ask Mellowfrost if he’s ready to step up again.”
