Setting the prey he had managed to catch on the way home down on the freshkill pile, he quickly dipped his head to his patrolmates before scanning the camp, eyes darting across the earth. It was nearing dusk, but he wasn't yet concerned with eating. He had to speak with Pineheart.

The large tom was soaking up the last bit of sun as it casted into the camp, outside of the medicine den. Eyes lighting up at the sight, Torrentpaw hastily bounded over to him, small bits of dust flying into the air as he slowed to a halt next to his mentor.

"Pineheart!" Torrentpaw meowed, lowering his muzzle to the tom's ear. His words were quick, impatience prickling his pelt as he was eager to share what he had learned from Stoatpaw. "I need to talk to you," He continued, taking a quick look around the camp. "Can we go somewhere private?" Torrentpaw urged, circling around Pineheart's other side, his paws refusing to keep still.

Examining his pelt for a moment, Torrentpaw's attention was adverted. "Are your wounds still healing well?" Torrentpaw asked, padding back to be face-to-face with his mentor.

[pineheart]

✦ Pineheart is trying very hard to get that rest Jinglemoon had told him to get, but so far, he is failing spectacularly at every turn. It seems like everyone in the camp wants to talk to him now, kits in particular. It comes as no surprise then, that the next one in line is his own Torrentpaw.

The young tom was positively buzzing, more than usual, looking ready to jump out his skin to get the excess energy out. Pineheart sighs softly, but relents without much protest, pulling himself up again.

"Alright kid, sure," he says. At Torrent's addition, he chuckles softly. "You're askin' me that now? I swear your mouth moves faster than your brain sometimes. But yes, I'm doing better– ribs still a little sore, but I was fighting a guy who was actually my size for once."

He nods his head for Torrent to follow and pads around the medicine den to the hole that was still staring at them all, evidence of the misadventure of a certain Shadowclanner, and squeezes through and out onto the riverbank, where he settles in another patch of low sunlight, and turns to Torrentpaw once more. "What's on your mind?"

Torrentpaw's eyes travelled upward as Pineheart rose to his height, his gaze then quickly flashing in slight embarrassment at his comment.

"That's how it feels sometimes." He chuckled lightheartedly, before following the larger tom in the direction of the medicine den. Settling in front of Pineheart on the water's edge, he stared at the tom with great concern in his gaze before leaping into his story of meeting Stoatpaw, and the information she shared with him about shadowclan's medicine cat and the other cats involved in the heist on riverclan territory. His words were jumbled together, his meow jumping back to previous statements, adding further explanation before continuing on.

"...I hate what the cats from Shadowclan have done to our clanmates." Torrentpaw meowed, his voice thick with anger. "But if what Stoatpaw said is true, It wasn't their leader's plan. Shadowclan's own medicine cat snuck right under his nose." Torrentpaw meowed, his long tail lashing once across the earth. "Stoatpaw said that Jadethorn and Cherryblaze were the names of the cats who snuck into our camp and destroyed our herbs. And she didn't even know that happened when I told her–I don't think anycat knew what those two were planning." He added, ears flattening at the memory.

"It's clear to me that there are cats in Shadowclan who are violent, just for the sake of it." Torrentpaw meowed, disgust lacing his tone. "But it isn't the whole of Shadowclan… And I trust what Stoatpaw told me." He added after a moment, his gaze finding Pineheart's once more. He hoped his encounter with Stoatpaw and the information she shared with him would reach his mentor. Torrentpaw had heard Pineheart's opinions on Shadowclan, which were shared by most of Riverclan, but he hoped that his words would aid in a resolution–one that wouldn't end in more bloodshed.

Torrentpaw looked at his paws for a moment, working his claws into the dirt. He was unsure if what he was going to say next would be in Pineheart's best interest, but he had already made it this far. He knew lying to Pineheart was out of the question.

"...I told Stoatpaw that Riverclan was planning a patrol to Shadowclan." He admitted, meeting Pineheart's gaze. "I told her I would meet with her again, the night after, when the moon is at its peak. She said she would bring back any information that may be useful, regarding the cats who stole from us. I told her she could trust us, that no harm would come her way. No shadowclanner can find out about this--who knows what they'd do to her." Torrentpaw's gaze clouded for a moment in thought, memories of the frightened apprentice filling his head.

"I have to see her again, Pineheart." He meowed, his voice growing softer, but still full of sureness. "She wants to fix this as much as I do." Torrentpaw thought back to her anxious gaze, and unkept pelt and claws. Her fear was strong but her will to make things right was stronger.

"Promise me you won't give her away to Shadowclan--or anycat, just for now." Torrentpaw meowed, voice lifting back to its usual strength. "You have to trust me."
