Cherryblossom Healer of the Mountains “I’ll see you later.” Cherryblossom said, having a soft expression on her face when looking at her mate Sunowl. Moving to kiss his cheek, the red calico moved to nuzzle into him before moving to leave Firestar’s den. She knew that Sunowl had wanted to catch up with his uncle, to see how his family members were doing. The two mates had just arrived within Skyclan after staying in Riverclan for a bit. Although it seemed like the two would be staying for a longer time than expected as there wasn’t a medicine cat currently. With Speckledmoss and Opalpaw stepping down, there wasn’t anyone in the medicine cat den unless help was really needed then Opalpaw would step in to help. Before Speckledmoss left, she told Opalpaw about a sign for the new medicine cat apprentice.. The question was, what is the sign? It was time for Cherryblossom to figure it out. Assuming that she would be staying for a while, Cherryblossom needed to find the new medicine cat apprentice for Skyclan and train them until receiving her full name. It was a bit nerve-wracking as she wasn’t a medicine cat apprentice not so long ago.. She wasn’t experienced or older like Rainysky, Hareflight, Startledcrow or Peachblossom.. So she couldn’t mess it up. Making her way towards the medicine cat den, she saw Opalpaw sitting there looking deep in thought. Cherryblossom asked Opalpaw to meet her in here just before going into Firestar’s den so they could figure out the vision together. “Opalpaw.” Cherryblossom greeted, moving to touch her pink nose against her friend’s in a friendly manner. It appeared that the other molly looked troubled, which caused Cherryblossom to sit down and wrap her tail neatly around her paws in a presentable way. The red calico may be in another clan, but she still knew her manners. Observing her friend for a moment, her head tilted slightly before releasing a sigh and shaking her head “It appears that Starclan had sent a sign that needs some solving.. But the question is, where do we start?” Cherryblossom muttered, her bi-colored eyes squinting slightly as the molly was lost in thought for a moment. She wished that Waspsight was around, he was usually smart within these visions and could straight up ask the spirits what they’ve meant.. Letting out a slow sigh and shaking her head, Cherryblossom remembered that she was in front of others which caused her to straighten up her posture slightly before speaking “What was the dream that Speckledmoss had? Anything unusual or noticeable that happened within Skyclan that could also be some sort of sign?” The healer muttered, it was the first step.. Finding out any unusual things within a dream or perhaps the territory area. Cherryblossom remembered when the black throat plague happened and it caused damage within all the territories, thankfully it seemed like everything was returning to normal after the cats from the journey found the herb to clean up the water and rescue the cats in the coma.

🕊️Opalsky 🕊️
The molly let out a soft sigh as she listened to the molly chatter, despite briefly meeting her at her only medicine cat meeting the molly had heard a lot about the ginger feline and was rather grateful for the fact that they were there to help her out without even a bat of her eye. "I get that it's not going to be easy.... I just wished there was a better line between who it could be or if they're from this clan or not you know? It's just rather frustrating because I don't even know what I'd do myself..." She admitted her ears flattening against her skull as she tried to keep her emotions under check.
Over the span of her apprenticeship the molly rather had a strong lack of sleep which caused her on most days to be rather irrational and a little delusional, despite that the molly had always decided to do her best to push through that as she had always that this was what she needed to do in order to be the best she could for her friend. "Thank you for coming though... I really do appreciate all the help you've given me since Speckledmoss left for her journey.." She added softly before she followed the molly out to the nursery following in after her.
Since some of the queens were known to have rather...large litters and the soon to be mothers joining in the nursery had become rather crammed and a little overwhelming. Smiling to Littledove and Auroraskies she dipped her head in greeting. "I'm doing okay I suppose and how are you doing dear?" She asked tilting her head to the side for a moment before her ears flickered slightly at what Thornkit had to say letting out a soft chuckle.
Laurelkit had watched the two healers enter in letting out a low huff as she turned slightly in her nest. Having been in the medicine den for her paw not to long ago she just hated every minute about being in there, the smells and the potential whiny cats to go in just rubbed her in all the wrong places. "Yuck Thornkit! why would you eat anything like that it's so gross!" She scowled a frown dusting her face as she did her best to avoid interacting with the newcomers in the den.
Opalsky paused as her blue hues shifted over the the kitten, blinking slightly she let out a soft amused purr, "Laurelkit dear hows your paw doing? I get that you don't like the taste of hers but it really does help out a lot." She softly added her gaze flickering between Cherryblossom and Laurelkit.
Cherryblossom Healer of the White-Tooth Tribe The red calico’s ears perked up, bi-colored eyes widened as she looked at Opalsky “My apologies! I should have known before about your naming ceremony.. It’s a fitting name for you” Cherryblossom said with such sincerity. The healer was scolding herself, calling Opalsky by her apprentice name. How foolish. Straightening up when the other calico molly began speaking, her eyebrow raised for a moment as she began listening. Cherryblossom began biting her inner cheek, as she listened to Opalsky’s version of Speckledmoss’s vision. Nearly refraining from letting out a groan of frustration, it would have been nice if Speckledmoss stayed to help figure it out… But she supposed that the former healer had her reasons. As Cherryblossom began playing with a small piece of moss between her toe beans, she looked up at Opalsky and a soft smile formed on her face “It seems like Starclan always has some kind of plan for all of us.. I thought that I was going to stay within Riverclan for the rest of my life.. While they had different plans for me, it took time to adjust.. But I’m happy where I’m at now.” Cherryblossom explained gently to the former healer. Although she missed seeing her family every day, she was offering her assistance in any way that she could towards others in need. With Sunowl by her side, Cherryblossom had felt like she had found her true purpose in life. Letting out a soft sigh, she looked towards the entrance of the medicine cat den “It will take time, Opalsky.. Just don’t expect all the answers to appear to you at once.” The red calico said, knowing that was the best advice that she could give for now. It was all up to Opalsky on what she wanted to do next. Slowly rising from her spot, the small calico beckoned her head towards the direction of the clearing “Come, we have work to do.” Once the two she-cats made their way out of the clearing, Cherryblossom looked around until spotting the nursery and began padding towards it. Perhaps Opalsky was right, maybe the cat that would become the next medicine cat of Skyclan was in the nursery.. They just had to figure out which kit. “We’re in a bit of a tricky situation, because we don’t know if it’s a kit or apprentice.” Cherryblossom explained and saw the look of confusion on the other molly’s face and released a small sigh “I had started my warrior training, and a week later was when Rainysky had a vision that I would become his apprentice.” She explained, the molly’s heart was warming at the thought of her former mentor. Cherryblossom loved Rainysky, like he was another father.. It brought her joy when seeing the gray tabby again and with four little kittens nursed at his side when visiting Riverclan.. Rainysky deserved happiness. “Here we are.” Cherryblossom said, a bright smile appeared on her face when seeing Auroraskies and Littledove sitting in front of the nursery. The two she-cats were chatting and laughing while 12 kits were chasing after each other, a couple of them stopping when seeing Opalsky and Cherryblossom. “A visitor!” Thornkit exclaimed, his dark brown tail waving as he bounded towards Cherryblossom and Opalsky and looked at them “Have you both brought berries, yes or no?” Thornkit demanded, Cherryblossom looked down at the kit in amusement.. As yes, Sunowl’s cousins.. They were quite the characters from what Firestar was explaining when mentioning his kits. It wasn’t until they all heard a ‘Thornkit!’ followed by the familiar face of Auroraskies coming towards them. The beautiful black and golden Maine Coon flicked her tail over her son’s ear “What have your father and I explained about manners?” Auroraskies said, which caused the dark brown and white tabby to giggle and brush himself against his mother’s forelegs and apologized to her.. Not even a couple of moments later, the little crazy tom ran off giggling. Letting out a soft snort in amusement, Auroraskies turned to look at her son who was joining the other kits once more before looking at Opalsky and Cherryblossom “Hey Opalsky, Cherryblossom.. How are you guys doing?” She questioned, and Cherryblossom dipped her head in greetings “Auroraskies, nice to see you.. We’re here to see how the kits are doing.” The red calico said politely before looking at all 12 kits. Oh boy, this was gonna be a time.

🕊️ Opalsky 🕊️
The molly had agreed to meet the ginger molly inside the medicine cat den. At first she had paced the floors she had grown so use too for majority of her apprenticeship. Something she knew she'd miss for the future to come. The fact that she wasn't meant to be a medicine cat had hurt her heart quite a bit but she respected the fact that she was all but a filler for the true medicine cat apprentice to come. Perhaps it was just so she could help when Speckledmoss would leave to go to the valley. So that the new medicine cat wasn't so utterly loss and left behind. Hearing out the mollys mentor would miss her and everything in between caused her to be rather sad.
When Cherryblossom had made her way inside her she let out a weak smile as she greeted her with a little purr and dipping her head in greeting before taking a seat beside the molly. "I'm not so sure where to begin love... Just the vision I had and what Speckledmoss had told me about her own before leaving for the valley just leaves me so dazed..." she started off her blue green hues filled with hurt and confusion. "It's also Opalsky now! I suppose you could say she unofficially gave me a name before leaving..." She murmured before she lowered to the ground complete and utter tiredness coursed through her body as she racked her brain in where she'd start with everything.
Ears flickering slightly as she let out a frustrated sigh before she decided to start with what she herself had seen at her first and only medicine cat meeting. "I suppose to start off I'm afraid somethings going to happen... kinda like the black throat plague but with snow... When I had my vision it started out with seeing my momma.. She had passed when I had came to join Skyclan or more so dropped off and then all of a sudden it started to get so windy I was sure I was going to be swept off my feet and thrown about.. It was so cold and there was so many screams I think...? Just lots and lots of snow..." She mumbled fear creeping up in her voice as she talked before aggressively shaking her head.
"I know you were there and I kinda talked about it then but wasn't the best at talking about it... I'm not sure what that all means but when Speckledmoss and I returned she had talked to me about what she had seen in her. She started out by saying she had to leave that she was needed elsewhere for the time being and that she loved and would miss me... She also had mentioned that there was someone who was meant to be the Medicine cat that despite the learning I had going through in the last several moons that I wasn't what Starclan wanted for skyclan.. Which as much as it hurts I agree.. ever since I had became an apprentice I've had nothing but nightmares about who knows what and a nagging feeling this wasn't what I was meant to be." She started off as she stared ahead a few loose tears rolling down her cheeks as she tried to remember the rest of what her former mentor had said.
"I think Speckledmoss said that she wasn't given a direct name of who it was I'm assuming it's one of the kits that are about to age up to being apprentices. She said she was in a sunny area that was filled with flowers like roses, laurels, and daisy's and that it was just really calming. She never mentioned if anyone talked to her then so I'm not sure what else to say... regardless I'm here to help wherever I can, I'm steeping down so the one meant to be in the position can step up.. I'm not sure what I'll do after.." She added finally before growing rather quiet.
