their a bit secondary to the main plot but their there!
they were nursery mates with Eveningpaw, their parents are Brashtounge and Honeymoon.
Rotpaw was named after their mother commented that they were a wrinkly little baby and looked like a rotten log. But then their tail got infected and fell off and she felt so so so guilty about it like the name accidently put a curse on them. He spent a lot of time as a kit in the medicine cat's den and Houdpaw stayed at their side until they were healthy enough to leave.
Houndpaw is a lil shy, and take some time to warm up to others but when he is he's a very kinda soul and wants to do what he can to help others, he just wants to be a good person. Houndpaw is known for being able to mimic dogs and throw his voice to trick prey.
the two of them got along great with Eveningpaw growing up.
(rest under cut)
Rotpaw began to be friends with Humidpaw from Gloryclan when they met at gatherings.
For awhile Eveningpaw got absorbed in her training and was basically always by Mutestar's side and barely spent time with the other apprentices.
Houndpaw admire Eveningpaw's dedication from after and still conidered her a good friend
During one of the Gatherings eveningpaw was left alone due to tensions rising in the clans and everyone trying to get straight to business and get out of there. Houndpaw sat with the lonely Eveningpaw to her surprise. He ask her how her training doing and how she seemed to being growing a lot, but a little stressed.
Eveningpaw brushes it off and claims that apprentice duties have just been very difficult recently is all.
Later Evening and Houndpaw sneak off together when they notice Tranquilstorm had seemed to sneak off and wander into Honorclan territory.
They would then overhear her talking to Rooster about offing Agonypaw.
When Eveningpaw up in the trees hiding out of site of Tranquil and Rooster begins to make noises, and Tranquil begins to try and find the source of the noise, Houndpaw lets out a bark from his own hiding spot to scare off the large cats.
eveningpaw ask how the tom is ok and if he saw the dog go by. he bashfully smiles before giving out a bark like noise
she remarks how incredible that is and how he did that! again shy, houndpaw fluster shrugs and just says he just happens to be good at it. Its hardly ever helpful however so he just keeps it to himself. But kinda laughs and says ‘why do you think my mother named me that, said i yipped up a storm in the nursery.
Then remembering what they overheard they hurry back to the gather not sure how they were going to tell anyone about this...
After this their debating how to go about telling anyone what they say, Houndpaw comforting her to let her know he's there to back her up if she does decided to tell someone. however houndpaw tells her that he knows when she’s feeling down, she never as chatty when she’s upset. And knows its about tranquilstorm and agonypaw, but reminds her that there isnt anything they can do,the river is too high to cross and the weather as bad as it is will swoop her up in its winds in a heartbeat.
Waiting for the storm to die down hound and evening minds are in a flurry about what to do, but the two go out hunting to try and clear their minds.
houndpaw spots a peasant who seems to be scratchin for food. The two see the older warriors havent yet noticed it. Houndpaw whispers to eveningpaw. He stalks off to one side of the bird while evening goes to the other side
houndpaw lets out one of his barks sending the pheasant flying. eveningpaw keeps her eye on the bird taking off into the trees like a bolt of lightning. Eveningpaw has adapted and gotten used to the wet swaying branches, working with them as she intercepts the bird flawlessly
they begin walking them home saying their due for warrior ceremonies any day now, maybe once the weather clears mutestar will put thought into giving them assesments
houndpaw nudges eveningpaw excitedly before getting quiet. He softly compliments her catch. The two fall back from the others. Eveningpaw thinks of what they said and quietly say ‘the storm wont stop, its just going to get worse and worse’
houndpaw is quiet for a moment before telling her that he thinks she’s incredible and that he know that she is capable of great things. Just that catch alone proves it. he’s quiet one more moment before he tells her to ‘stop the storm’ eveningpaw is confused for a mere moment before nodding and running past their senior warriors on the hunt with them. eveningpaw runs full sprint to the river. She launches into a tree feeling its sway on her paws. She climbs higher and as far as she could get on these tree branches before she’s forced to leap off the branch and over the river into Gloryclan.
Houndpaw watches on in amazement before explaining to the warriors what he and eveningpaw have learned about Tranquilstorm and must stop.
After the events with Tranquilstorm, Eveningpaw is named Eveningvolley, while Houndpaw and Rotpaw are Houndbellow and Rotroot.
Houndbellow and Eveningvolley would later become mates
