Herondive Hollow

[Levi 99]

A small kit- well, a miniscule kittypet- padded onto the territory of Thunderclan, and collapsed directly at the border. It had plastic caught around its throat and it looked really weak. This was Cola, and this first plastic trap was one of many he was going to go through.

Shadefrost had just returned from Sunkissed Creek, brandishing a new scar on his neck. It bothered him a little, but it wasn't anything too bad. He'd simply clean it and find some cobwebs to apply. As he began to make his way back over the border he noticed something laying motionless in the dirt not far away. When he walked closer he realized it was a kit with something wrapped around its throat. It didn't seem to have a scent belonging to any of the clans, which meant it wasn't any of Shade's problem. Still, he wouldn't leave it to suffer until it died. Using his teeth the warrior bent down and tore the object off of the kits neck, then he picked him up by the scruff of his neck and began walking again. It'd be foolish to leave an animal so young out in these woods, especially when there were predators of all kinds roaming about. Plus, the fact that this thing had already been in danger of dying was proof enough that it couldn't be left to fend for itself. So Shade decided to bring it back to Shadowclan and raise it to be a warrior. He could only pray that his leader didn't turn the furball away.

The kit was a beautiful ginger Tom kit, with green eyes and long fur. It wore a red bow tie of some sort.

Sharppaw followed the cat and watched for any disturbed leaves. She was very disappointed in her mentor for not showing up. She had a creeping feeling that this mentor would turn out like the last. She stopped when she smelled kittypet stench. LongForgottenSnowyPelt
Cola realized that these clan cats weren't so friendly as some of the ones he'd met. He let out a slight squeak and tried to back away but the plastic around his neck stood out like a sore thumb.

"Just refresh the scent markers and we'll be heading back."

Spiderfang said as he looked at the apprentice before getting the same kittypet scent. Spiderfang had no time for this. The tabby tom looked around before calling out.

"Whoever you are leave if you don't want to die."

Spiderfang said before going to rub against things refreshing the Shadowclan scent on the border. Once he was done he looked at Sharppaw expecting he to be done.

"Let's head back."

The tom said before flicking his tail and going to walk back to camp.

Alderstep dipped his head like Morningcall had, twice in greeting to the other warriors. "Let's get going," he said, unable to keep the slightly grim edge to his voice away. He had every reason to be grave, though, what with Firestream's incident at the border. Alderstep flicked his tail tip, beckoning his patrol mates to follow as he set off into the territory, traveling to Herondive Hollow. "Don't think I have to remind you, but be careful; sinkholes have changed the territory here. I have yet to investigate it, so I won't be as familiar with it, and neither will either of you. Tread carefully." The last thing the deputy wanted was to lose either of these warriors to some stupid accident, like losing their footing. Of the many things Alderstep took lightly, sinkholes weren't among them, not since he lost a friend in that incident a few moons back.

The tabby took in the sight of the Hollow, committing it to his memory in an attempt to establish that this was how things looked now. True to Bumblestar's words, a single fallen tree stretched across the ravine. He studied it, then looked to his clanmates. "Think we should cross one at a time?" Alderstep asked.

Tigerblush was right behind Alderstep as the patrol made their way to Herondive Hollow, priding herself in her focus. She only stopped twice, which was a record, once for a squirrel she accidentally spooked and another for a small beetle that happen to be crossing in front of her path. She did arrive in time with the others though, whiskers pulling back at the state of the border.

She peered over the side of the ravine with wide eyes, glancing between the drop and the measly tree connecting them to the other side. “Sounds like a good idea.” she quickly agreed; nothing good could come out of rushing things, and she didn’t plan on taking a fall anytime soon.

Shade was still on his self-appointed mission, seeing as how he'd only managed to attack one cat as of late. He was annoyed and for good reason too. If he didn't do something to appease to his leader, he'd be just as good as the trash. Shadefrost had been lying on a tree branch, waiting for someone to come along, when all of a sudden a voice sounded nearby. He swiveled his head around to find the thunder clan deputy leading a patrol along the border. It looked as if they were trying to be careful of something, though he couldn't tell what. But, none of that actually mattered to the tom. He simply wanted to see how lucky he could get. This was a great opportunity. If he could kill Thunderclan's deputy, then Dawnstar would probably forgive him for his mistakes. However two other cats tagged along with Alderstep, so he'd have to play his cards smart if he wanted to accomplish his goal and walk away alive.

The tortoiseshell feline had remained silent on their way to Herondive Hollow, her mind was ultimately in a far away place so it seemed however her presence mentally returned upon the sudden break in silence from AlderStep. Nodding gently with TigerBlush, she spoke gently. “It would be wise to cross separately, this looks quite…unstable”. Her eyes narrowed slightly at the crossing point, as if scoping it out for further issues.

The unanimous decision to carefully tread on the tree to reach the border made things easier. Alderstep didn't know why, but he'd been fully prepared to argue his case further. He shook off his defensive, tense posture, looking at the two others. "I'll go first," he meowed, toning his voice down. He disliked ShadowClan border: even catching their scent sent him on edge. Despite that, he felt the duty to go first. That wasn't up to debate, though, so the deputy padded silently to the tree, gently prodding it with a white paw. "I hate this," he muttered under his breath, knwoing that his tail definitely was puffing up some. Whatever, it'd be fine.

Other than his pounding heart, the tom made it across the ravine safely. He looked back, seemingly indifferent, at Tigerblush and Morningcall. Whichever one chose to go next didn't matter to him, so long as they made it safely. Alderstep took that moment to aggressively rub his cheek on a nearby bush, refreshing ThunderClan's scent. Did ShadowClan discover the ravine, too? He wasn't sure if he preferred the rats to be oblivious or not, worried about what would work best to his clan's advantage.

Tigerblush watched Alderstep cross the ravine with relative ease, and that was really all the convincing she needed to go next. Putting her front paws on the trunk, she looked down at the drop for just a second, leaping lightly onto the tree and making her way across without another look at the ravine. She landed on the other side with a happy sway of her tail, rubbing her scent on any nearby tree or bush while peering into ShadowClan's territory.

MorningCall followed suit with her Clanmates, wearily crossing the ravine. Her amber eyes darted down slightly towards the gaping ground below her, swallowing slightly she refocused her attention on AlderStep and TigerBlush as she landed back on solid ground. Slight relief filling her senses as she began to rub her scent across a tree nearby, allowing for new scent markers to be made at the border. She noticed the unsettling yet familiarity of ShadowClan’s terrain, an uneasy feeling crawled up her spine as she mumbled softly to no one in particular. “It feels almost too calm and quiet here…it’s unsettling-“. Her eyes narrowed somewhat as she scanned her surroundings before making it back to her Clanmates, awaiting instructions.

Alderstep had wandered off a little bit, spreading the ThunderClan scent as he padded along the border, doubling back around to regroup. Morningcall's words reached his ears, ringing true. His eyes pricked the shadowy darkness that hung under the pine trees, searching for something, anything. He found nothing.

ShadowClan was eerie, in that sense. They came out of nowhere, and the only predictable thing about them was their brutalism. "Hm. At least they kept to themselves. We should get going," he suggested, eager to get away but not open enough to admit it. With a flick of his ear, he gestured to the tree. "I'll bring up the rear," he murmured, looking back to ShadowClan's side of the border.

Bloodflame strolled into a clearing, breathing in the air. "My starclan" she said "I am finally away from all that drama" . Bloodflame scented rain coming, so, sighing and with a flick of her black tail, she padded back into the tree's.

Bloodflame smelled intruders, rippling her fur she said "who is there" loudly.

[_Snowstorm_]

"I know that smell... Thunderclan!" She spat "come out and play little runts!" Bloodflame stalked toward the scent , readying to leap and deliver some body's to Thunderclan.

Without further delay, Woollyfeather turned and headed off into the territory, retracing the steps she had taken as she'd carried Sweetpaw back home to be buried. It wasn't until the silence of the marshes settled over the two of them as they walked that the realization that she was still covered in the apprentice's blood sank in.
It coated her maw, and chest, and paws, and it was drying and becoming heavy and sticky and....
And it didn't matter. Not when she still needed to help investigate Sweetpaw's death.
She'd been murdered, mangled beyond recognition and here Woollyfeather was worried about a little blood that she could wash off at any time.

The lilac point stopped at some point, her gaze flicking skyward as she stood.
"I didn't see any marks that would indicate that she'd been bitten or clawed at. Her bones were broken, her poor little body crushed. She had to have fallen. Been pushed, rather..."
Her tail lashed and ears flattened against her head before she picked the pace back up.
Now wasn't the time to wallow or feel guilty.
She could fill Hawkbite in on her few observations on the way.
"I didn’t stay in the area long; I'd had the nagging sense that it was unwise to linger on my own, but I did get a chance to look over Sweetpaw. The most obvious sign that it wasn't an accident was the heavy scent of a ThunderClanner that invaded my senses as I carried her."
She could still taste the acrid and earthy scent that had been left on the apprentice.
"Second, there wasn't any damage to her claws, as you might expect from someone who made a wrong step from high above and was trying to save themself."
That, and the lack of any fur beneath her claws or in her teeth meant she hadn't had a chance to defend herself.
Her muzzle crinkled in distaste.
This meant whoever had killed her, did so in cold blood.
Whoever did this had somehow either sneaked up on her or lulled her into a false sense of security before their cowardly act.
Woollyfeather turned her head, giving Hawkbite a side glance.
"Hopefully, the scene can give us more information about who did it."
It was unlikely they'd ever catch the cat who did it, but she'd at least make the effort.
And perhaps the idea of a little revenge on ThunderClan sparked her interest should they find any of the cowards.

Hawkbite's ears flattened at the words. They were so cold-hearted. "And they call us cold-hearted murderers," the Enforcer spoke with a growl that lingered a few moments after. "We'll show them," the dark tabby spoke quietly, giving Woollyfeather a side glance as they drew closer to the border. There wasn't the normal friendly spark in his eyes now.

First Ivysnake, now Sweetpaw? His fangs were itching to sink into some ThunderClan flesh. The eye he took from the battle wasn't enough now. It was time for a pelt or two.

Tigerblush -- She/they
✿ ✿ ✿

Tigeblush had wandered up the border a bit before zoning out completely, staring across the border with a thoughtful face. It was a bit deceiving honestly, because there wasn't a single thought in her head beside the small critter, something fluffy, scurrying around from bush to bush. There was a sudden flicker of intelligence, and she thought to try and catch it, but just at that moment, Alderstep caught her attention.

Abandoning whatever it was, she hurried back to the patrol with a small 'alright' in response to the deputy. She hardly paused, stepping up to cross first and getting back to the other side without a hitch. Crossing the tree wasn't so bad now, but she had still watched each step carefully. Tigerblush turned to Morningcall and Alderstep, patiently waiting for them while still keeping a wary eye on ShadowClan territory.

MorningCall

MorningCall waited patiently for her Clanmate to cross before giving one small glance at the territory behind her, something felt off. She stared a moment or two more before she crossed back towards her clan’s territory, trying to ignore her unease. She naturally assumed it was just with the current tension between the two clans that was putting her on edge, on top of the murders that have been happening. The tortoiseshell landed on the other side with grace before turning back to observe her clans deputy. She hoped no trouble would arise in these last few moments here, it would be bad luck otherwise.

After both cats went over, Alderstep crossed with care. Borders were fun and all, until they weren't. He hurried, unnerved enough by now to not care about composure. "C'mon, we're outta here," he said, trotting back into ThunderClan's territory. And then they all went home, happily ever after (assumedly).

Sharpclaw
ThunderClan | Warrior | He/Him | 12 moons
Sharpclaw led the patrol to Herondive Hollow, eyes glued to the shallow creek ahead. His mouth hung open to scent the air, and his ear twitched at every sound. He was somewhat glad to be put on this patrol. It would be a lie to say he wasn't itching to shred some ShadowClan skin.

Something inside him felt uneasy though. With the direct threat of war hanging between the two clans, this border posed a bigger threat than usual.

He wasn't worried for himself though. He was more than capable of kicking a few ShadowClan butts. Sunleap too of course, but two warriors may not be enough to scare off the likes of those power-hungry snakes.

He was more worried for Leafpaw, who was just apprenticed a few sunrises ago. He doubt that her mentor had managed to cram in any sufficient battle training in the past few days. She probably only knew the basics; nowhere near ready to square up against a ShadowClan warrior.

He turned to address the Siamese apprentice. "Hey brat, once we reach the border keep an eye out for ShadowClan," He didn't know how experienced she was with patrolling, so she might not know the risks that marking this specific border carried.

"In case ya didn't know; that's the place that separates us from those snakes. I wouldn't put it past em to jump us for no good reason." She had better take him seriously. Because if a ShadowClan patrol really did show up and she just stood there like a dead stump then he'd leave it to StarClan to decide her fate.

Not long after he finished speaking the patrol had arrived at the border. Sharpclaw wasted no time in scenting the area. He marked the trees and shrubbery heavier than usual. As if trying to make it clear which side belonged to who.

Sunleap marked the trees and bushes, hoping that a ShadowClan patrol didn't attack them. After all hadn't 3 ThunderClan cats killed ShadowClan's medicine cat apprentice? He could definitely see that they might be pissed at all ThunderClan cats right now, so he kept a look out. If any ShadowClan warriors attaked them Sharpclaw and he would probably have to protect the apprentice as well as fighting, as he doubted her mentor had gotten to teaching her how to fight after just a few sunrises.

Leafpaw followed after the two warriors somewhat bored already, she had been bored lately. She hadn't been near this border just yet since her mentor hadn't wanted to get close to it with just him and her at that time. Right the two were for being worried, she hadn't gotten a chance to do battle training just yet with her mentor. If she noticed the two trying to possibly baby her she might just bite their legs, she wasn't about to be treated like a weak baby. Man, she smelled Shadowclan at the gather and if they stunk before well their borders smelt worse. She had been silently staring at the area before she turned her head to look up at Sharpclaw. Did this guy just refer to her as a brat? Her tail twitched with irritation as she stared at him for a few hot seconds, " I have a name but okay..." How was she a brat when he wasn't that much older. Leafpaw eyed over to Sunleap wondering if they would say anything but it seemed they wanted to stay quiet, at least they weren't trying to refer her as some brat or anything. Oh look he was speaking to her again at which she turned her attention to what he was pointing out. "Wildtwist showed me the direction but hadn't taken me since it was just me and him" she threw out at Sharpclaw. She wasn't stupid enough to not listen to him she didn't like it but she had to listen to some snippy warrior. Leafpaw waited a minute watching what Sharpclaw was doing before she would start moving closer. That didn't look like it was difficult to do, with a huff she came up to some other bushes that Sharpclaw hadn't come too. It might of been been awfully close to the border but she wasn't sure since it both scents got her confused on which border ended, or were they supposed to he mixed?

Woollyfeather's tail lashed at Hawkbite's words.
Would getting revenge do anything more than start a new wave of violence? Everytime they tried to get even, ThunderClan pushed harder. She wouldn't be too surprised if Dawnstar eventually hunted them the way she'd hunted WindClan.
The idea wasn't pleasant, but they had to learn when to own up and take responsibility for their mistakes instead of shoving it onto them. Bumblestar even had the audacity to lie about Ivysnake's murder.
Woollyfeather didn't break the silence for the rest of the walk, instead letting her emotions fester.
A distinct and prickling uncomfortable feeling settled into the pit of her stomach as her thoughts inevitably thought about all the apprentices that had been murdered and the dread over Ravenkit's inevitable apprenticeship.
Would she be next? An eventual casualty to ThunderClan's cruelty?
She'd tear into the cat that would dare so much as touch her.

Woollyfeather's mind lifted from her thoughts as the area became familiar and she scented the distant fragrance of blood. She shivered, almost amazed she could still recognize the smell after all this time she'd spent covered in Sweetpaw's blood.
Oh stars, she was still covered in blood!
Her steps slowed and she had to wonder how no one thought she'd killed the apprentice, in an attempt to push away the nauseating reminders of what had dried in her fur.
After a moment, she returned to her original pace, forcing herself to focus on their surroundings.
"The place I found her is just up here."
By now, they could start following the blood splatters that had come from her moving Sweetpaw, all the way back to the scene itself. She fell back, indicating for Hawkbite to take over.
"The blood leads to the spot. I figured you'd want to get a feel for the scene before we start looking."

No. Now Vixensnarl was pissed because they had dared to murder Ivysnake on ShadowClan territory. ThunderClan would pay for it.

And this patrol marking the border was the perfect opportunity. With a flick of her tail to Smallwing and Brokenwolf the Enforcer signaled the attack.

Bumblestar thought her head was going to explode.

She was getting sick and tired of finding wandering idiots on her territory, or even at the border. It was irritating! Did outsiders have nothing better to do than stink up ThunderClan's territory? Technically both Clans' territories.

Darkfall was relieved that the cat accompanying him didn’t raise any complaints and set off about going to mark the borders. He wasn’t sure what to do should he have faced any opposition. The large tom didn’t contain any authority when it came to any of the other warriors, particularly not the ones that were older than him. He hadn’t even been a warrior for seven moons yet and the one apprentice he had, disappeared before he could raise her to warriorhood. Despite this, he was the leader of the patrol, so he guessed that that had to count for something - albeit not much.

After watching the Pinewhisker walk away, Darkfall began to walk in another direction. He was going to try and get this done quickly and then come back and meet up with the other tom. As he began leaving his scent along the border, he felt his stomach rumble. He was hungry. ’Ugh’ he thought to himself as he went about his task ’This is mildly frustrating’. Despite his hunger, he wouldn’t hunt along this border lest he get accused of prey stealing. That would be frustrating. Ignoring the pang of hunger he felt, he began to walk further into their side of the border and rub against plants and mark the surrounding trees.

Darkfall continued about his task with little trouble. There was one moment when he hit his injured paw on a rock and had to fight back the urge to scream obscenities, but otherwise, there were no problems. ThunderClan didn’t make an appearance and he didn’t come across any large predators.

After deciding he had done enough, the large tom made his way back to where the two warriors had initially parted ways. When he got there he was glad to see that Pinewhisker was already waiting for him. Relieved that he didn’t have to go track the warrior down, he nodded to him and said ”If there were no issues, let’s make our way back to camp.” and with that, he began to head towards the camp, vigilant of his surroundings to ensure they weren’t ambushed.

The Siamese mix didn't know what was going on between Shadowclan and Thunderclan that well. About the only thing she was knew was that one of their medicine cats got killed, did one of their own really do that? Leafpaw wasn't sure about any of that since no one talked about it to her that much so she didn't concern herself with it. Stuck in her thoughts for a bit she didn't realize that there was movement not far from where she was apparently. Maybe she should of paid more attention to her surroundings, her mentor did warn her about this border and so did Sharpclaw not too long ago. Shame on her for not keeping that in her head as she was about to move on to some other part of the border to be marked. Well that was better said then done as she heard the yowl first before she felt herself tackled into the ground, harshly at that mind you. Then came the stinging pain of claws ripping through her side she couldn't even get out a word before any of this mess. "The hell?!" she screeched as she got up to face whomever it was that just attacked her. She didn't know who this one was but she was able to recognize the scent of Shadowclan. were they just sitting there and waiting? that was low but couldn't expect anything less from a clan they were supposedly at war with. Well she wasn't going to sit there and take it like some weak kit, she would at least fight back even if she didn't know how to properly fight. With her own screech she leapt forward aiming to swipe with claws unsheathed at the shadowclanners face in retaliation.

Sharpclaw
ThunderClan | Warrior | He/Him | 12 moons
An ambush! Before he could order his patrol to retreat, a ShadowClan warrior lept from the other side of the border and flung herself at Leafpaw. His outlook on ShadowClan honestly couldn't drop any lower than this. First, they try to steal his territory, kill their own medicine to justify a war with his clan, and then ambush his patrol for no reason! Worst of all, they went straight for Leafpaw, who definitely wasn't trained for any of this.

The sandy tom unsheathed his claws and was about to leap at that Shadow-snake until another one lept into battle.

Looked like Leafpaw would have to hold her own for a while.

Amber eyes glared at the fiend in front of him, and the large warrior launched himself at Brokenwolf, aiming to knock her down.

A small tabby ginger she-cat quietly padded along the edge, taking in the view. She looked around curiously. This was Candle. She saw a battle nearby and quickly decided to leave since she knew if one of them saw her she might die. She quickly ran away.

[SuspiciousMindz]

Woollyfeather's tail lashed at Hawkbite's words.
Would getting revenge do anything more than start a new wave of violence? Everytime they tried to get even, ThunderClan pushed harder. She wouldn't be too surprised if Dawnstar eventually hunted them the way she'd hunted WindClan.
The idea wasn't pleasant, but they had to learn when to own up and take responsibility for their mistakes instead of shoving it onto them. Bumblestar even had the audacity to lie about Ivysnake's murder.
Woollyfeather didn't break the silence for the rest of the walk, instead letting her emotions fester.
A distinct and prickling uncomfortable feeling settled into the pit of her stomach as her thoughts inevitably thought about all the apprentices that had been murdered and the dread over Ravenkit's inevitable apprenticeship.
Would she be next? An eventual casualty to ThunderClan's cruelty?
She'd tear into the cat that would dare so much as touch her.

Woollyfeather's mind lifted from her thoughts as the area became familiar and she scented the distant fragrance of blood. She shivered, almost amazed she could still recognize the smell after all this time she'd spent covered in Sweetpaw's blood.
Oh stars, she was still covered in blood!
Her steps slowed and she had to wonder how no one thought she'd killed the apprentice, in an attempt to push away the nauseating reminders of what had dried in her fur.
After a moment, she returned to her original pace, forcing herself to focus on their surroundings.
"The place I found her is just up here."
By now, they could start following the blood splatters that had come from her moving Sweetpaw, all the way back to the scene itself. She fell back, indicating for Hawkbite to take over.
"The blood leads to the spot. I figured you'd want to get a feel for the scene before we start looking."

[Hawkbite (https://suszone.weebly.com/hawkbite.html)]

The Enforcer took the lead as he followed the blood trail to the heap of leaves and pine needles that Sweetpaw landed on. His eyes narrowed and his lip curl with distaste. "The poor thing," he murmured to himself. His ears flattened as his gaze peeled away from the bloody spot and swept around the tree. His gaze would eventually work it's way upwards to where he could see a couple branches broken above him. It made his breath catch. "She couldn't even catch herself. . . she was definitely taken off guard," Hawkbite spoke, his green gaze shifting solemnly to Woollyfeather.

The Enforcer smirked as the apprentice let out a startled shriek. It was just like the lazy squirrels to be so unaware of their surroundings. Killing them was going to be so so fun.

Vixensnarl jerked her head backward in time to avoid the swipe aimed at her face, the apprentice's paws only managing to graze her whiskers. With a vicious grin, she lunged, feinting a frontal attack before pivoting to dart around Leafpaw. If she was quick enough, the brown tabby would try to grab the apprentice's tail in her jaws and yank, hoping to throw them off balance.

Border patrol to Herondive Hollow, yessir! Applechatter had given a firm nod to the deputy as he gave his orders, mentally tracing the road to the ThunderClan border before looking for their patrol mates. Oh they felt... Strangely anxious, after their last trip outside and could just feel their paws vibrating with energy. They couldn't help it... They couldn't step themselves... Before they knew it, heeding the feline's warning, Applechatter darted off into a run past Darkfall and whoever else there may to be straight to Herondive Hollow.
"Let us GOOOooooOOoOoOoooOoooo!!!!!"
Called an uncharacteristically high-pitched voice as it trailed off into the distance...

Arriving at the border, the feline felt still very energized, but at least that tingly feeling that urged them to run was over. Now, Applechatter was moving about in an upbeat trot, happily looking around. ThunderClan may have been acting a little stinky (just like ShadowClan always had, were they switching roles?) but that did not mean they couldn't be in a good mood!! Turning their patrol mates' way, they flicked their tail.
"I'll head this way, how 'bout you head the other? Holler if find anything"
With a sing-song voice the feline gave their suggestion before disappearing into the aforementioned direction. Humming as they thoroughly marked the border, Applechatter kept a careful eye on the other side in case there were any issues.

Darkfall watched the other warrior race past him with disbelief. Just what was in the water that had them acting like that? Well… whatever, all he had to do was follow along and get this patrol done. Hopefully, the overexcited warrior accompanying him wouldn’t cause any trouble along the border.

One thing Darkfall noticed as the group headed to the border, was that Applechatter seemed to have an abundance of energy. Another thing was… Applechatter was weird. Like unsettlingly so. They just appeared to do whatever they wanted, and the large tom couldn’t help but wonder if that’s where the “-chatter” part of their name came from. Perhaps Darkfall was just being a bit judgy, he had never had that kind of energy, even as an apprentice so he couldn’t even fathom bouncing around and shouting in such a manner.

Upon receiving the suggestion to split up, the large tom nodded and went off in the direction that the leader of the patrol pointed. Perhaps, if they were lucky, they wouldn’t have to engage in any kind of violence. Truth be told, he just wasn’t feeling it today. Padding away, Darkfall began to meticulously remark the border.

The Thunderclan warrior had accidentally strayed near the Shadowclan border, where he found himself a shiny new cat. With a… pumpkin stuck to its head? Rainfall sighed, finding no need to let this cat get mauled by Shadowclan nor Thunderclan. He led him away, guiding the cat with his tail over to the outskirts where loners and rouges were allowed to roam free. “Here.” he meowed, discomfort peppering his tone. He slammed a paw down onto the cats head, the Jack-o-lantern breaking open at the force of the blow. Ew… he thought to himself, looking at all the pumpkin seeds and guts on him. Rainfall, out of the kindness of his heart, brought the rouge to a stream to wash off. “Here, wash off here, Pumpkin face.” he meowed.

No Grapevine, how sad. Oh well. They were probably busy with something. Shrugging it off and glad to see Darkfall agreed with their plan, Applechatter happily padded off into the mist to mark the border. It was an easy job, really, just walk along the scent line and rub your scent here and there against a boulder or tree or the ground! Happily, marking the border, after a short bit of time, the feline hummed and decided to return where Darkfall and them had split. Now feeling a lot more calm, having run those heebie-jeebies off, Applechatter patiently waited for the dark feline to return.

Darkfall quickly finished up marking his stretch of the border. He didn’t see any of the Thunder Squirrels this time around, so he hadn’t had a need to do anything drastic. You’d think with the amount of times he’s checked this border in the last few moons that he’d encounter at least one warrior from the other clan, but that was not the case. It was a little disappointing, but oh well. After doing a brief check again, he made his way back to Applechatter.

The Thunderclan warrior sighed, trudging along the ground. He looked over to Softsky, and then to Wolfmist. Who he thoroughly didn’t want to be near. They were both too, what’s the word? Whatever. He guessed it’s not like he didn’t like them he just didn’t want to be talking to them. He looked over to Shadowclan’s side, peering into the dark depths of their enemy clan’s pine forest. Who’d even want to eat frogs? Or reptiles for that matter. He has stayed up for a good night worrying about the upcoming war. Rainfall hated this. He hated being here at this moment. Existence wasn’t easy right now. But he had to keep on going. He had to keep on going to help his clan. And if Thunderclan was at war with them, then his help would be a nice addition against those brutes. Despite his skittish nature, Rainfall had only disrespect for Shadowclan, especially their leader, Dawnstar. Sure she was all flashy and aggressive, killing cats and all that crap. But violence is only used by cats who are weak. His scorn and hate for Dawnstar had only increased when war had been declared on them

Okay well no one was complaining, at least not openly, so that was a win. What wasn't a win was being at the shadowclan border, considering all the tension with them lately [and, for most of Softsky's life, although that was more on and off.]. However, she kept her mouth shut about that and simply just marked the border, keeping an eye out for any suspicious activity from the other side of the border.

[beau]

Wolfmist didn’t have much to say today, so he simply padded alongside his patrol silently. It seemed his patrolmates were content with keeping the quiet as well. Once they reached the border, the tom broke off from the group to begin marking it, occasionally sending curious glances towards RiverClan’s side of the border, looking for trouble or simply anything that caught his eye.

☆_ Woollyfeather : The Fool, Upright : she/her
Agatha Kitty: Passive _☆

It was..... hard to re-visit the scene.
Even from a different angle, even knowing she wasn't going to stumble upon Sweetpaw this time around didn't stop the way dread clawed at her insides. Her fur bristled and she stepped closer to Hawkbite.
While her friend's gaze was drawn to the blood, her eyes trailed upwards to the branches, carefully inspecting them, and wondering.
Sweetpaw had been warm when she'd found her. How many precious minutes had she wasted by taking a detour or some time to sight-see instead of coming straight to the border. Had she been more diligent.... had she just not dallied.... may she could have saved her, or, at least, seen who had killed her.
Her nose twitched and bottom lip quivered as she allowed the thoughts to wash over her.

Her gaze lingered, long enough for the tabby at her side to work his way to where she had and voice her very thoughts. She simply nodded as he turned to her, still staring at the branches that swayed above their heads.
After taking a shaky breath, she finally lowered her head, eyes flicking back over the blood-splatters and taking the time to think, and allow the cogs in her head to turn. The tree was the obvious next place to look and she knew without a shadow of a doubt that it was ThunderClan she'd scented on Sweetpaw.
It was no fluke, not some random accident caused by a misstep, as Hawkbite had noted, or even a bird of prey trying and failing to carry her off. There were no marks to indicate as much, only the impact and subsequent blunt force trauma could be found.
Trust her, she knew. She'd spent more time with Sweetpaw's corpse than she ever would have wished.
"Not a bird that did it, by fright or by attack. As you said, she hadn't a chance to catch herself. A slip also would have afforded her time, and there was no damage to her claws to indicate she even briefly was able to."
The tip of Woollyfeather’s tail twitched once, upward.
"She also had not a mark left by talon or beak. And.... if nothing else, I know what I scented on her. It was definitely ThunderClan."
They were, after all, at their very border as well.
After a few moments of silence, her tail twitched again before she began to slowly approach the tree, careful to avoid the copious amounts of blood or the connecting foliage. She didn't want to disturb the scene in case they still needed it to.... she didn't know, look at if this turned up nothing.
Once she was at the base of the tree, she inspected the bark, noting the places where bark had recently been peeled away, the sap working hard to cover the scent of the surrounding blood. Alongside the chips in the tree's armour where clawmarks, from someone apprentice sized and not quite skilled climbing upwards.
Slowly, hesitantly, she lifted a front paw and touched the tree. It was almost like she could feel her still there.
The marks weren't consistent with someone desperately scrambling to safety. She'd gone up willingly, which was consistent with previous findings, that she was taken off guard.
The lilac point stood on her hind legs, comparing the marks left between each one when the scent of ThunderClan returned. Not just any Thunder cat, but the same scent she'd smelled on Sweetpaw.
Woollyfeather turned her head, eyes scanning the bark beside her and found a second set of claw marks going up, and claws going down. For a moment, she froze, stuck staring at those stupid little marks.
"Hawkbite. Come here. There's another set of claw marks beside the ones Sweetpaw made. A pair going up, and back down. The claws up are as old as Sweetpaw's.... the claws down are, even by a margin, fresher."
She lowered herself so she could approach the newer marks and touched where the bark had been peeled. Fresh, sticky, and strong smelling sap welled up from beneath her touch, where it had not when she'd placed her paws upon the path carved by Sweetpaw.
She removed her paw and stared at the sap, transfixed before extending it to Hawkbite.
"Look.... the trails up did not release sap when I touched them, meaning someone definitely left after she fell."
It was only further proof of what they knew.

Woollyfeather stared for a few moments, knowing what was next. They needed something else, something that would help them find who had murdered the apprentice.
After moments of staring, she nearly gagged as the taste of blood hit her tongue and she realized she'd licked her maw, still coated. Now, it didn't cause as much distress as it did anger.
This never should have happened.
ThunderClan needed to pay for all the damage and suffering they'd caused.
With a silent snarl, Woollyfeather bunched her muscles before leaping upon the tree, claws sinking into its woody flesh and blood letting the sap within with each inch of progress she made up the tree.
It wasn't long before she was able to haul herself onto the safety of a branch and catch her bearings, eyes wildly searching for further signs of where the apprentice had gone.....
There.
More claw marks, and fur.
She almost dismissed the finding, the fur that was caught having most certainly been Sweetpaw's when she finally thought to look for more fur. After awhile of searching, carefully crawling from branch to branch like a spider might climbs its web, she found exactly what she was looking for.
The fur of their culprit.
Yes.
"Hawkbite, I found some fur. I have reason to believe it belongs to our murderer. Should I bring it down or do you want to follow me up."

He grunted, a sharp stick having poked his pad. He looked at it to make sure it wasn’t bleeding and, thank Starclan, it wasn’t. He continued marking the border, wary of Shadowclan and Riverclan. Thunderclan’s leader, Bumblestar, had just recently killed Beanstar so he wasn’t too glad about their new rivals. What’s next? Kill Twilightstar? He swore to Starclan that Bumblestar was just as bad as Dawnstar. Maybe that’s why they were at war, maybe it’s because of their similar personalities and behaviors. They were both prideful, harsh, probably had a tough past, and they both have killed before.

"She also had not a mark left by talon or beak. And.... if nothing else, I know what I scented on her. It was definitely ThunderClan."
They were, after all, at their very border as well.
After a few moments of silence, her tail twitched again before she began to slowly approach the tree, careful to avoid the copious amounts of blood or the connecting foliage. She didn't want to disturb the scene in case they still needed it to.... she didn't know, look at if this turned up nothing.
Once she was at the base of the tree, she inspected the bark, noting the places where bark had recently been peeled away, the sap working hard to cover the scent of the surrounding blood. Alongside the chips in the tree's armour where clawmarks, from someone apprentice sized and not quite skilled climbing upwards.
Slowly, hesitantly, she lifted a front paw and touched the tree. It was almost like she could feel her still there.
The marks weren't consistent with someone desperately scrambling to safety. She'd gone up willingly, which was consistent with previous findings, that she was taken off guard.
The lilac point stood on her hind legs, comparing the marks left between each one when the scent of ThunderClan returned. Not just any Thunder cat, but the same scent she'd smelled on Sweetpaw.
Woollyfeather turned her head, eyes scanning the bark beside her and found a second set of claw marks going up, and claws going down. For a moment, she froze, stuck staring at those stupid little marks.
"Hawkbite. Come here. There's another set of claw marks beside the ones Sweetpaw made. A pair going up, and back down. The claws up are as old as Sweetpaw's.... the claws down are, even by a margin, fresher."
She lowered herself so she could approach the newer marks and touched where the bark had been peeled. Fresh, sticky, and strong smelling sap welled up from beneath her touch, where it had not when she'd placed her paws upon the path carved by Sweetpaw.
She removed her paw and stared at the sap, transfixed before extending it to Hawkbite.
"Look.... the trails up did not release sap when I touched them, meaning someone definitely left after she fell."
It was only further proof of what they knew.

Woollyfeather stared for a few moments, knowing what was next. They needed something else, something that would help them find who had murdered the apprentice.
After moments of staring, she nearly gagged as the taste of blood hit her tongue and she realized she'd licked her maw, still coated. Now, it didn't cause as much distress as it did anger.
This never should have happened.
ThunderClan needed to pay for all the damage and suffering they'd caused.
With a silent snarl, Woollyfeather bunched her muscles before leaping upon the tree, claws sinking into its woody flesh and blood letting the sap within with each inch of progress she made up the tree.
It wasn't long before she was able to haul herself onto the safety of a branch and catch her bearings, eyes wildly searching for further signs of where the apprentice had gone.....
There.
More claw marks, and fur.
She almost dismissed the finding, the fur that was caught having most certainly been Sweetpaw's when she finally thought to look for more fur. After awhile of searching, carefully crawling from branch to branch like a spider might climbs its web, she found exactly what she was looking for.
The fur of their culprit.
Yes.
"Hawkbite, I found some fur. I have reason to believe it belongs to our murderer. Should I bring it down or do you want to follow me up."


[Hawkbite (https://suszone.weebly.com/hawkbite.html)]

The tom's jaw clenched harder than ever as Woollyfeather pretty much confirmed his suspicions. The dark tabby then followed her up the tree, not super graceful at climbing, but doing it nonetheless. "I'd rather see for myself and see if it says anything more," he spoke as he climbed.

Once up to where Woollyfeather was, Hawkbite gave the fur a sniff and cringed his nose hard as the smell of ThunderClan. Definitely ThunderClan. "Poor, poor Sweetpaw," Hawkbite half-whispered, his ears flattening against his head. "We'll need to bring that back to Dawnstar or Cougarivy," the tom finished with a simple nod.

A new scent caught his attention and his gaze shifted towards the border. They were techincally crossing it on this side of the tree, but Hawkbite didn't care. Dawnstar gave them the greenlight to do what they wanted and they would. "I think someone's coming," he spoke urgently.

he walked around the boarder softly smelling the shadow clan cat near of the muddy and wood smell stung his nose till he saw the cat "an apprentice like me" he thought creeping closer till he would jump and pin him ((if perms))
"why are you here" he hissedYellowpaw
"Woah, cool down! " he half-hissed at the cat who had just pinned him. he just barely slipped out of the other tom's grasp. "Just making sure no one dies. No murder, please. I have many more things to do in my life.". Mouse-dung! he thought he was concealed. he turned to look for his exit, but the Thunderclanner blocked it. " nothing to do but talk my way out,", he thought. "Maybe-not-very-nice to meet you, Other apprentice! I'm Yellowpaw, what do you need? I'm just guarding the boarder. Not trying to harm anyone. Don't attack me for nothing!"

"Well, Your doing great at it, Fallingpaw."He paused to clean off the areas where dirt and leaves had gotten stuck in his glossy coat. "Strange that I've not heard of you. I know most cat, from the gatherings and clanmates. Weird. Unheard of. Just kidding it's extremely heard of. But anyways, what a coincidence that we were both guarding the border at the same time-" Wait. He had never seen a Thunderclan cat by themselves. That must mean there's an attack or spy patrol nearby. And what would his clan think? They would think he's a terrible guard, or, even worse, guided them in the territory! He couldn't go down in history like that. He envisioned the Shadowclan camp in shambles, his clan all having fled or had been killed, and Bumblestar sitting smugly upon Shadowledge. No, never. It can't happen. Most of my clan can fight better than me. He thought, thought it didn't help him much. If the rest of his clan was stronger than him, how would he be remembered, Mouse-brain who let his clan perish? This must be a distraction! Welp, better go find there patrol before we all die.. This was his breaking point, even though he could usually handle situations like this. ""Well, know one goes into battle without a cl- uh a plan, so I think I'll just- Cowardly move. He thought."-plan our strategy in next to this tree. By the way, Truce during at least the first battle?"He asked, slowly edging behind the tree, so he could calm himself down and go find Fallingpaw's patrol.Fallingpaw probably would know where his own patrol is. I'll ask him. I need a way to get him to trust me. He knew exactly what he should do, thinking back to a day he was bored out his mind.""I'm pretty bored what about you?" Ha! It was perfect! There was no way someone would catch on.

Shadow Fiend - Active | Just a Scratch - Inactive | Beefed Up [Tier 2] - Inactive

Muscular, broad gray muscles shifted into the shadows, scouting ahead of his group despite his younger age. After his auntie's assessment, he had learned that he could take a hit. He could take a hit very well. The fights against the foxes proved this further, and if they were to encounter unruly ThunderClanners that needed to be put in their place - preferably the ground - he would rather be able to merge with the shadows and spot them before they became a trouble for his patrolmates. And then he saw it. Not one but two apprentices talking by the border. Unaccompanied, it seemed, and from opposing clans.

Normally, such a sight would not affect Mousepaw negatively. The older apprentice held no ill will towards other clans on the regular, but this wasn't just any other clan. This was ThunderClan. The clan that had delivered the pelt of a beloved clanmate to them at the gathering. The clan that had murdered their medicine cat apprentice. Not only that, but this particular apprentice - Yellowpaw - was breaking a few rules in the process. Seriously... you weren't supposed to be out alone as an apprentice. Mousepaw hated that rule, considering he'd been in enough battles and been trained for long enough that he felt he'd be of more use to the clan if he wasn't, but nobody was above rules that had been placed for a reason. Besides, no one was supposed to be here alone right now! Dawnstar was going to be ticked... and rightly so.

Verdant eyes narrowing as he closed in on the chatting apprentices, the muscular tom stepped one paw out of the shadows, looming menacingly half hidden in the darkness. "Yes... why do you ask, Yellowpaw?" Mousepaw mewed, a judgemental snarl on his features as he lay a look of utter disgust upon his fellow apprentice.

Yellowpaw should be grateful that he was a ShadowClan cat. Otherwise, Mousepaw would have had no problem killing him off. He was already tempted, seeing him so traitorously breaking rules out of boredom of all things like a selfish moss-brain, but the heavy set apprentice was not above the code. He would deliver him to Dawnstar and let her decide on the outcome for this one. Turning to face the ThunderClan apprentice with a scowl, he felt his snarl raise, his whiskers quivering with anticipation.

"I suggest you run back to your patrol. Otherwise, I have my orders on how to deal with you, and I don't know if my patromates will be as willing to give you a heads up as I am," he snarled, tail lashing in the darkness before he called out to the rest of his patrol. "Drippingpelt! Gingermoon! We've got someone to escort back to camp here! Stay right there. Moving is only going to make this worse," Mousepaw added, turning his attention back to Yellowpaw before fully emerging from the shadows.

GingerMoon clicked her tongue and slipped gracefully over to MousePaw, smiling with anticipation. Oh boy these apprentices were in for a treat.

"Tsk, tsk!" GingerPaw meowed taking a step closer "You were bored? Such a pity! I'm sure DawnStar will give you some fun tasks to do as a reward for trying to cure that little boredom of yours!" She said with a smirk. The ginger she-cat turned to the other apprentice "And you! You sure should hope that your patrol will be gentler on you then we would be!" She growled with a hiss.

The ginger she-cat looked at YellowPaw with disappointment and anger. This cat could've been hurt or worse! Maybe it would've been better for him to die here actually, instead of having DawnStar destroy him and put his hide in her wall as a trophy.

BerryFrost
BerryFrost, who was peacefully nibbling on a mouse, heard her brothers announcement. She finished her meal and slipped over to her brother. A emotionless face spread on her russet muzzle but a playful gleam in her green and blue eyes. "Foxes? Sounds fun." She said, slipping nest to her older brother. This was going to be exciting.

Dovefluff looked up sharply, lapis eyes flashing with horror and surprise as she rose to her paws. "I'll come!" She moved across the clearing as she spoke. Her wounds from her ex-mate were just raw scars now, and she was ready to fight for her Clan. Even if it was so close to ShadowClan. Because she needed to protect Springpaw and everyone else. I'd rather it be me. Tail lashing, she stood ready to to follow the deputy away.

// ~'Atlas-The-Lemon'~
the ravine is out of sight from shadowclan's side = no shadowclan interference.

Alderstep shot a short glare toward Berryfrost. What about sleazy foxes was fun? His glare shifted to Dovefluff, eyeing her healed scars. Well, it wasn't like the three of them would be fighting foxes on their own, would they? Still, he felt a tug of dread at the thought of taking somebody vulnerable along with him. What if something happened? Stars, the responsibility was above him. Sort of. Besides, both his clanmates were perfectly capable warriors. Regardless of, well, anything.

Not one for weather talk, Alderstep breezed out of the camp and across the territory. He kept a brisk pace, not running but not meandering. Getting things done, succinctly. As it should be. Keen eyes kept an eye on his surroundings.

Up until they reached the border. The russet let up his pace, ears perking up significantly to catch faint murmurs of movement by the ravine. He glanced around the area and tasted the air, nearly cringing at the fox-scent the wind carried over.

His momentary hesitation was forgotten as he approached with renewed speed, and his tail flicked to signal that his company should follow suit. He crested the dip before the array of sinkholes that had culminated into the ravine. And across it, past the fallen tree bridge, was a horde of foxes. Ten or so, a few of them were kits. Alderstep's eyes widened at the sight. How had those gotten there? And why? What?

"Stars," he breathed out as he regained his composure. At least they posed no threat to ThunderClan territory. "So," Alderstep spoke up, seeking out the gazes of Berryfrost and Dovefluff. Speechlessness rendered his words futile as he looked across the ravine once again.

The russet she-cat followed her brother, her green and blue gaze darting back and forth. BerryFrost watched her brother smell the fox scent and she started smelling it as well. She sneezed and then watched brother go into a ravine. The russet tabby followed him and looked at the foxes with utter shock. "Stars...that's a lot of foxes..." She breathed out and then continued. "What do we do? They're not much of a threat to our territory but they are still in our territory." She meowed.

With his belly full of freshkill and the sun shining on his pelt, today was surely turning out to be a good one, and his pleasant mood was showing through. After this quick patrol, he would have pretty much the entire day to himself. Maybe he could do some training with Spiderpaw. He had been neglecting his apprentice lately, and he felt a bit guilty about that, so perhaps he should. He glanced across at his patrol mate, Featherglow, a cat he hadn't spoken to much. "How's your day been?" He asked the warrior, in an attempt to start up some conversation and speed the passing of time.

As they approached the border, the scent of ShadowClan filled his nose. Well, of course to had to be ShadowClan today. Someone had to do it, but that didn't mean they had to enjoy it. Oh please don't let there be anyone there. He was still cringing after the gathering.

He heard voices and cleared the rise, looked down at the two ShadowClan cats. They had already spotted them, and they didn't look too happy. "Ho there," Harefire mewed nervously.

Huffing as they hurried out of camp, Dovefluff brought up the rear of their trio-patrol, fluffy tail lashing as she hurried along, dark lapis eyes scouring the territory as they appeared at Herondive Hollow. The place where she had crossed the border, heavily pregnant to meet Sootfur, to join ThunderClan. To escape ShadowClan.

And now she was back. For a very different reason, and with considerably less kits. (that thought was a rabbit hole she couldn't go down right now so she quickly occupied herself with a more helpful activity; looking for foxes). Following Alderstep's gaze, her eyes widened. A large group of foxes stood across the sinkholes, Dove counted about ten at the first glance, listening to her companion's reactions. "Well." She breathed softly, tail tip twitching. "Glad they're over there." The three of them against a group of foxes? A trio of cats against FoxClan? No way that would've ended well.

"What should we do?" It didn't look like they were coming over here anytime soon, but Dove thought it would be a good idea to play it safe. "The night guards are going to have to be on high alert in case those things somehow make it over here later." Foxes were cunning, but she didn't think that they were a threat to their immediate future.

She sneezed and then watched brother go into a ravine. The russet tabby followed him and looked at the foxes with utter shock. "Stars...that's a lot of foxes..." She breathed out and then continued. "What do we do? They're not much of a threat to our territory but they are still in our territory." She meowed.

At Berryfrost's remark, Alderstep solemnly nodded. 'Twas a lot of foxes. The sight of them made his heart thrash within its prison, like a cornered animal not yet resigned to its sordid fate. There was something unnerving about being so close to the cat-like predators without being attacked or attacking them. The adrenaline pumping through his veins had nowhere to go, and it only served to set him more on edge.

He compartmentalized his sister's question to ponder until he could fully answer it later. Right now, though, he had to pull himself together from these fragmented pieces of loose nerves and energy. Dovefluff's near-replica question barely echoed in his aural senses, as if it were a faint whisper of grasses brushing together under a soft greenleaf wind.

There was a brief upset in his mind as Alderstep tugged a thought, or maybe a trail of thoughts, from the bottom of the growing pile of things he had to address. So Springpaw had been right. "Springpaw was right," the russet cat repeated out loud. Alderstep snapped out of his trance-like state and returned to his serious, no-nonsense focus.

"Springpaw had had a vision or some flowery dream-dung about foxes - went 'n told Bumblestar 'bout it, so here we are now," Alderstep divulged with verity. He flicked an ear as the distant screeching of one of the younger foxes reached across the ravine. He narrowed his eyes momentarily into a wince before he turned to peer at his two clanmates. "We should get going. Those red-pelted cat-eaters won't be going anywhere sometime soon. I hope. 'Sides, I gotta report back to Bumble," he explained, voice dipping with exhaustion and dread. This meant more work, more worrying, more...ugh. He gave an evanescent wan smile, fading quickly as weariness tugged at his features.

BerryFrost saw her brother was stressed. She nodded at his words, BumbleStar definetly needed to know. She wanted to smile and tell him in soothing voice that everything is going to be okay. "Everything is going to be ok." She tried but it was no use, she was emtionless and that would probably never change.

The fluffy silver molly tipped her head to the side, watching the hoard of foxes, heart racing but her head chiding her that there wasn't anything to worry about. Her head snapped back to attention when her daughter was mentioned, catbrows raising. Oh? She made a mental note to check in on her kid later and make sure she was okay. Pride for Springpaw flashed through her, and she nodded to her friend's suggestion. "Okay, sounds good." She offered Berryfrost a small smile, (another mental note: get to know berryfrost), before turning to head back to camp whenever Alderstep made a move to, bringing up the rear once again.

"Off we go, then," he gruffly mewed and began carefully picking his way back to the camp.

Locked in now to the task before him, Darkfall led his patrol out to Herondive Hollow. He was unhappy about being here, but he had a job to do nonetheless. Turning to his patrolmates, he looked at them scrutinizingly. ”I know this goes without saying, but do not cross the border. I’d rather not deal with those irritating Thunder-brats today, however, if you do happen to see one of them across the border, kill them immediately.” a mildly irritated flick of his tail as he said that. The good mood he was in had already turned sour and he just wanted to hurry up and get this over with. ”Also, we chased some foxes towards the border not too long ago. Be extra careful and holler if you hear anything, as they may still be here.” He warned. ”I believe this will work fastest if we split up.” Turning his gaze onto Sunsetpaw he squinted at her slightly before shaking his head as if realizing something before saying ”Tag along with either me or Wildshore. You’re still quite young and this particular border is quite dangerous at the moment, it’d be better to have an extra pair of eyes watching your back.” He had to make sure that nothing happened to the young she-cat during this patrol, and this was the best bet to do so. He then turned around and began walking along in one direction along the border, not waiting for anything else. If either of them chose to follow, that was whatever, but he still wanted to hurry up and get back.

Everything about this patrol felt good and right, there hadn't been much in the apprentice's young life that had felt bad but this seemed special. She'd trained with Mister...his last conversation was stuck in her brain the entire walk out to the border...worms... She shook her head briefly and returned to her thoughts. She'd been training with....the worms guy and the other warrior was her new mentor! She couldn't have been happier by her patrolmates except maybe if they'd been MooMoo and Papa Elmshadow. She perked her ears as Worms began talking about not crossing borders and something about "Thunder-brats" and killing them and then foxes, and splitting up. Her head cocked the other direction but, before she could say anything, Worms beat her to her question by telling her to stay with him or her mentor. Her pale blue eyes switched between the two warriors, not totally sure which route to take. She could stick with Worms since she knew him and he was nice, she liked him, yes yes. But then she was really excited to have her very own mentor again, since something apparently happened to Goody since she was no longer her mentor. Sunsetpaw looked after Worms as he moved along the smelly length of territory that Papa Elmshadow had pointed out to her was the Thunderclan scent then she looked back to her mentor and waited, not totally making a decision and rather waiting to see if one would be made for her, in one direction or another.

tiny padded next to his mother. fear was rolling off of him as they walked into the clan territory on thunderclan land. tiny didnt know where they were, their mother stopped and dropped her other kit rose, rose was tiny's sister "mama, where are we?" rose had mewed. tiny flattened his ears as he sat by his sisters and started to groom her.

rose stared up at her mother as she had tears run down her face. "stay here and let the wild cats take you...goodbye my kittens." she then turned and ran away leaving the kits alone. "mama..." rose started to cry, she was sad...what if the wild cars ate them? killed them?! "tiny tiny!" rose cried for her brother. "What do we do?!" rose cried, she was cold and sad....

their mother kate padded away after sometime she laid by the thunderpath and cried, she stayed there with her eyes closed hoping she would pass on there...

★彡 r͆o͆s͆e͆ 彡★


rose was shaking with fear and sadness. why would their mother leave them for the flee-ridden cats to eat them? how would they help them? "o-oh tiny i want mama back!" she cried with sadness, she buried her face in her brothers fur and weeped loudly

the kittens were unaware of the red fox preying on them...

★彡 r͆o͆s͆e͆ 彡★


as tiny spoke a huge red animal came out of the dark, it growled and both kittens were on high alert now. "W-what is that?!" rose felt panic rise up in her, before she knew it tiny was pushing her to run and hide, the two kittens ran but tiny only got a few pawsteps away before the red animal bit his tail. tiny let out a loud yowl and tore away, his tail came off in a sicking snap and blood started to come out, rose turned to help him even though she was scared but tiny mewed "G-Go! Hide!" rose nodded as her eyes blurred with tears, she wiggled into a hole and as she did so tiny tried to fight back, he had 0 luck, the red animal shook him back and forth and his body went limp, the animal took a few bites of tiny and then picked up the rest. tiny was then taken away by the red animal and there was nothing left but some blood here and there. rose cried, she didnt stop, she burrowed herself in the hole of the tree and just cried, her brother was gone and she had nothing left. and it was all the clans fault and her mother and life...

Though, she didn't really feel the need to search for validation from warriors who didn't much offer it. She instead turned to Spottedfire and gave him a soft smile.

Not many warriors took kindly to his rude nature, even if he didn't always intend to come across that way. Maybe it was his eyes or something. They were unusually sharp and narrow, giving his face a permanent glare. He guessed it didn't help that he frowned all the time, though it was hardly his fault since there simply wasn't anything worth smiling over.

"Gotta be alert now more than ever. 'Specially with them foxes lurkin' around along with ShadowClan," he meowed. Sharpclaw busied himself with marking the border, rubbing his face on a nearby tree as he spoke. He kept his eyes peeled all the while, never letting them stray away from the border's edge.

urk , thunderclan. thankfully they didn't smell as bad as the guppies but they reeked of thinking they were the crap. wildshore didn't like their self confidence as it was almost fake, once without a leader they scramble. sure wildshore herself was as fake as one could be, but her confidence was not made on the basis of current leadership. it was whatevs she guessed, turning to darkfall she listened as he made his comments. oh yeaah, guess this apprentice was hers. she was still weirded out that she had one of the little buggers, and in fact she didn't like it either. she didn't like to be associated with the younger crowd as she didn't want to damage her popularity. the trend is always to hang out with the older cool cats . [B]"i gueeeeessssssss you can come with me, just don't wander off because i'm not going to look for you." turning to the right, she motioned for the apprentice to follow her.

as she went across the border, she wondered if sunsetpaw had done this before. probably, she had been an apprentice for a while.. right? "you know how to do this right? because i wanna get this over and done with. i have thrifting to get to." she said as she marked across the border.

Darkfall heard Wildshore’s reluctance as he walked away. Well, that decided things, right? He did hope that Sunsetpaw didn’t end up running off because he didn’t particularly want to have to track her down or anything. She’d be fine, right? Probably.

Anyways! Darkfall silently made his way along the stretch of border he chose, meticulously checking for anything unusual whilst marking it. Hmm… The stench of the treelickers seemed to be relatively fresh compared to the other few times he had come out here, it seemed they were doing more to make sure their borders were secure. Well, they could have their silly little trees and ravine, they’d be going to take Sunkissed Creek again shortly. Upon not seeing anything out of the ordinary, Darkfall nodded to himself before making his way back to where he left the other two.

The young gray and white she-cat bounced, energy buzzing through her as the excitement settled that she’d be going with her very own mentor. She followed quickly, nodded enthusiastically at the warrior’s words, not fully heeding exactly what was implied but also not caring to. She was going on her first border patrol, and with her mentor, and Worms. It was the best ever. She nodded quickly then thought about then meowed, ”Well I haven’t done this before. This is my very first border patrol, it is! I’ve only been on an herb patrol before this. Maybe I’ll get to go on a hunting patrol next! You think? But…oh, yes, sorta. Papa Elmshadow told me what to do. Kinda like this, right? We’re marking to show those Thunderclanners that this is our territory and we’re strong, right? I’ve learned some, I have! And I think you’ll teach me more, yep yep!” She marked a nearby tree sloppily as she continued on, hoping her new mentor would be impressed. She wanted to show her that she was helpful and worth being a mentor to, yep yep. She wasn’t just some goofing off apprentice, nope nope. She was helpful, Miss Ivy said so. Maybe now she could be more helpful in other things too, and not just the killing of others. She followed the lead until they’d seemed to walk forever and then returned to the original spot and saw Worms again.

Spottedfire followed, silently. He thought he knew these cats, their faces and their pelts looked almost familiar, but his legs felt almost numb and his paws were especially confused today, head swimming in confusion. Around him sat imposing, unfamiliar trees, and unfamiliar scents, every little shifting shadow made the fur on his back stand on end.

He put trust in the two, and leaned against one of them (Sparrowfur) to support his legs. The calico wanted to go home, but did he have one? Did anywhere look familiar?

Thankfully, Darkfall didn’t have to wait long for his patrolmates to show up back to where they met.

Perfect, now that that was out of the way he could finally get back to camp. ”Let’s go,” the large tom grunted with a flick of his tail before making his way back to the camp to report the news to Vulturefang.

Being over here after the whole fiasco was irritating. Bumblestar swept her gaze over the expanse as she crossed the tree bridge with Lynxpaw's body slung over her shoulders. The whole thing still brought a bitter taste to her tongue. Something so detrimental that could have been avoided with a little bit of sense.

She passed the ravine and the site of the battle, and when she reached the scent markers she let the body slide from her back and hit the ground with a thud. She shoved it over the border and then sat down on her side, waiting for someone to come along to collect it.

Being over here after the whole fiasco was irritating. Bumblestar swept her gaze over the expanse as she crossed the tree bridge with Lynxpaw's body slung over her shoulders. The whole thing still brought a bitter taste to her tongue. Something so detrimental that could have been avoided with a little bit of sense.

She passed the ravine and the site of the battle, and when she reached the scent markers she let the body slide from her back and hit the ground with a thud. She shoved it over the border and then sat down on her side, waiting for someone to come along to collect it.

Dawnstar strolled towards the border as she caught the fresh scent of ThunderClan coming from it. She tensed her muscles up for a fight just in case, but honestly was still recovering from the battle and wasn't looking for more trouble for Elmshadow to deal with. The golden amber gems spotted the smaller form of ThunderClan's leader as she sat and the limp body lying on the ground.

Snorting softly, Dawnstar padded over and paused a bit from the she-cat, reaching out with a clawed paw to drag Lynxpaw's still form towards her. "You actually brought him back, I'd prefer him alive, but considering he was the only idiot to get taken I'm not particularly upset with this." She already knew the tom was mostly going to come back dead. Dumbass shouldn't have gotten himself kidnapped. She'd never heard of any cat getting kidnapped during battle before, at least no ShadowClan cat.

Honestly, Bumblestar probably saved her a headache with this one. "I'll see to it that my clan doesn't make a fuss about this. What happened to the other apprentice?"

Bumblestar's intact ear twitched, and she lifted her head just as Dawnstar came into view. Perfect timing, really. She stood up while the larger leader dragged the body closer. "Would've preferred a live delivery but I don't know what he was told 'n what he wasn't. Not willing to take the risk."

At least there wouldn't be any trouble resulting from this. Authorized trouble, that was. Bumblestar sniffed in response to the other question. "Executed. Won't be giving you anymore problems, or me, for that matter. If she was stupid enough to try something like this, I've no idea what else she might've attempted in the future."

Spiderthroat and Dovefluff never showed so Brambleberry went out to check the order by himself. Dense fog made it harder for him to see but he couldn’t pick up any scent of foxes and Shadowclan was staying on their side, so he freshened up the border and then caught 2 robins that were hovering in the fog before making his way back to camp

Dawnstar scoffed quietly at the reply, more amused by it than anything else. It was honestly hard to be mad about any of this since Dawnstar would have taken the same precautions if the situations were swapped. After she got her answer on Ghostpaw, she smirked just slightly. The older leader didn't understand why the younger was only handling her idiots correctly now.

If Bumblebrat had acted the same when her clanmates were stirrup trouble at the start they could have avoided all this conflict. "Thanks," Dawnstar meowed, grabbing the deceased apprentice by the scuff and departed with that. She had to go bury this idiot and then go and take care of any potential backlash this might cause.

With a curt nod she led the two younger cats toward’s the first border they would patrol while out. Her silver eyes narrowed in suspicion as they neared the thunderclan border, her paws firm as she stood on the very edge before rubbing herself against the foliage around her. Smells like we haven’t been keeping up with border or scent markers I’ll have to report this to vulture’fang when we get back. As for now both of you tell me what you smell. As for cobweb you’ve probably already done this because darlfall is a competent warrior who should’ve showed you around already. wasppaw hesitated before opening his maw and drinking in the surrounding scents. He was hit heavily with the smell of…Thunderclan! Oh my his ears perked immediately and his eyes widened. Orange orbs glanced around at the trees on the opposite side before turning an excited expression on cobwebpaw this is so cool! he mewed quietly in fear of being snapped at by starry.

On Vulturefang's orders Darkcloud headed back to Herondive Hollow to mark the border gain with Ospreysplash and hopefully on time or they were at risk of demotion or worse exile....and she definitely didn't want that.

So being wary but quick the dark she-cat marked the border, making sure she did it completely, and headed deeper onto Shadowclan's side her tail flicking slightly impatiently as she waited for Ospreyspalsh.

He opens his mouth to scent the air, and the Scent of ThunderClan comes to him - so does a very faint ShadowClan scent. His nose wrinkles and he looks at Starry'whisper. "Is our Clan always so foolish? They need to mark the border properly and more often." He mews, almost hissing as he then turns to Wasppaw.

"But how do you know it's ThunderClan? Other than the scent, what gives it away?"

Not having the time to wait for his patrol members to catch up, the young warrior sets out toward the marshy land of Herondive Hollow in a rush. Paws steeped in mud have him flicking his feet every so often in an attempt to rid them of the muck but eventually... He realizes it's pretty useless. So now to keep an eye out for the herbs Springpaw had asked for... Eyes scanning the expanse of land, ears perked for signs of movement as he looks, the first thing that comes to mind is Ragweed... The description was easy enough. Tall yellow flowers. Pungent smell... Let's see here.

[ YARROWCREST ROLLED A 17 TO SEARCH FOR RAGWEED: SUCCESS! ]

The smell hits him before the sight of them. It sure was pungent, just as Springpaw had said... Jaw clamping shut and nose wrinkling in mild disgust, he trots over toward a few stalks growing together . Not exactly sure how much is enough he decides that two would be enough for now, just in case he finds something else she asked for. Don't want to pick too many and not be able to carry it all back.

[ +2 ragweed ]

And now to search for the others... Feverfew is the other description he can remember. Maybe he shouldn't just listen for colors of flowers on the plants but it was so much easier to remember than how tall they were or what their leaves looked like. What did scalloped mean, anyway? Continuing to move and search, he keeps an eye out for dark green leaves and white and yellow flowers...

[ YARROWCREST ROLLED A 19 TO SEARCH FOR FEVERFEW: SUCCESS! ]

Aha! That over there looked exactly like how Springpaw described! Smell tangy, too, even all the way where he was standing. Proud of himself for a job well done, he lets himself smile as he makes his way over to the flower stalks, he chews one off that has a couple flowers and leaves still attached and takes all of his findings in his maw before looking around to see if his patrol mates managed to catch up.

Wasppaws head turned away from cobwebs direction and towards the large burly she cat. He blinked slowly trying to process what she had just called him before it finally clicked. Hey! he called out indignantly. Right right anyways we should move onto the next border now. with a flick of her fluffy feather like tail she led the two younger cats away from the thunderclan border. Turning her head ever so slightly to solemnly glance back at it. She would never forgive any thunderclan cat for their wrong doings…not ever..but that thrush guy…he was ex thunderclan wasn’t he?

He can't help but frown at the two cats. He admits - to himself - that he kind of feels like an outcast because they're not paying attention to him. And he hates that. Hates it when they're not paying attention to him because that is basically the story of his life. "Where next?" He mews, looking at Starrywhisper and Wasppaw curiously, deciding - in this moment - not to think about the fact that he is basically not wanted here.

( Sorry sorry, I got the patrol extended to the 9th, please don't forget to submit the patrol to the patrol board tcdc )

Larchflame took up position at the back of the trio, ignoring the muck on her paws and instead keeping her eyes out for any slinking cats who might dare to cross the border and jump them. Also looking for the herbs, that too, but the safety of Yarrowcrest, and she supposed Rateye no matter how disrespectful he is, while they herb picked was her highest priorety. Shadowclan had proven themselves to not hesitate to provoke Thunderclan through any means, and 'disappearances' about Herondive Hollow were not uncommon as of late.

So far the patrol had proven to be a success, they'd already managed to collect some of all three herbs, Larchflame nodded to Rateye as she pulled up another two stalks of burdock from the same patch, similarly wrapping them in burdock leaves to make them easier to hold onto and cary through the thick mud.
[ +2 burdock root / somehow I rolled a 19 lol ]

Alright.. so that was now three burdock, two ragweed and one feverfew- was that enough? Or shall they gather more? Just to be safe, Larchflame had pulled some leaves and a couple flowers off of another feverfew plant she noticed tucked around the side of a pine tree.

Rateye was about to turn around and follow Springpaw when a strange scent caught him- blood..? But from where..? Then, he saw it. William, tugging the dead body of a Riverclan dork, on the territory. "Y'all go without me, I got a fight to start." He growled before walking over to William.
"What are you doing here, William? This isn't your territory- take the corpse and leave." He growled angrily. William just ignored him, so he pounced. The two began to fight and William was chased off. Rateye decided to take the corpse William had left onto Riverclan territory.

Frogsong had just finished the last of the markings. "Me too!" She called to the her clanmates.
Her eyes caught the attention of a little field of flowers and...herbs? she thought. Since when has shadowclan had a field filled with herbs?

Nightgaze lingered by the border for a few hours for her weekly monitoring.

he next day Creekstep had been pondering what happened the night previous, was he really going to talk to some random Thunderclan she-cat? then again if he's able to get some information he could bring it back to Dawnstar, it could help Shadowclan greatly. he'll just see what the she-cat wants; then he'll decide from there. very strange considering talking to people was the last thing he ever wanted to do. but he was curios. he made his way at moon high. sniffing the air for danger as he made it to the location *wouldn't sea stones be a better option instead of traveling into different territory? after all his scent would stay for border patrols-* he thought. * i cant believe im doing this*

whiskers twitching, she stood, stretching tiredly. she wanted to sleep but knew she wouldn't be able to until he had decided to leave. ``is your camp far? i don't want you walking all alone, tired and sleepy back to your territory,`` she said in a quiet whisper, looking in his general direction. she couldn't see anything except his very faint silhouette. the trees were blocking the moon's glow, that was why her eyes were so bad at the moment. her eyes never really were the best of them all, really.

the tom started blushing when the cat said he was "timid". what was this crap why did he feel like this? he shook it off he hated being overwhelmed. the She-cat was right- it was getting dark- no one is Shadowclan would really care if he was gone-. he decided not to answer what she said and instead focused on the question "im right here" he said walking closer "don't worry i know my way back, i can see fine-".

Nightgaze
Thunderclan Hornet

Nightgaze warily stared into Shadowclan's territory, black fur spiked slightly. She didn't like hanging around here where the fox-hearts were lurking but it was for the safety of Thunderclan that she risked a few hours of cautiously lingering here so she didn't complain...though being so close to the border still made her on edge.

[Dark]

Darkfall
Shadow Fiend: Inactive | Beefed Up (T3)
___________


TW: Mentions of death & descriptions of corpses

Darkfall snuck out of camp [i]again. But hear him out! He had a good reason this time! Of course, as an Enforcer (that’s what he was told he was anyway) he had to make sure that he did routine patrols around the territory and ensure the safety of his clanmates. He just met Fuzzy at one of the borders a couple of days ago, so now he had to make sure that no one else was trying to sneak over the borders.

At least, that’s what he told himself, but in actuality, Finch (the medicine cat also known as Lark) had left him in the medicine cat’s den and she had been gone for a long time so he wanted to see if she was okay. As a result, he was following her scent in the direction of one of the borders. Maybe, just maybe he’d be able to swoop in like some kind of hero and really impress her. Speaking of being a hero, he had a faint memory of saving the round healer once before from a hole of some kind, but the memory was fuzzy. Had that been before or after he became an enforcer? Oh well, whatever the case was, she was pretty and he liked her so he would save her whenever needed.

As Darkfall drew closer to the border, he could feel himself getting more and more frustrated. The large tom couldn’t quite place a proper reason, but something happened here and he had apparently been here many times.

The amnesiac Enforcer didn’t have too long to think about that though, as the sharp tang of blood filled the air.

Something was wrong. Very very wrong.

Hastening his pace, Darkfall hurried to where the scent of blood was coming from until he saw a bloodied white tom sprawled across the ground next to a black and white she-cat with a large neck wound. Wait a minute…

He shut his eyes tightly at the sight, memories of bleeding corpses and angry yowls not belonging to these two flooding into him. There had been a battle before. How long ago, he was unsure. However, one thing he was sure about was that the other clan, the one that covered this border and the tom cat so thickly was bad. Very very bad.

Reluctantly opening his eyes, Darkfall studied the two corpses before him. He was completely unfamiliar with the tom. However, the she-cat? He knew her from somewhere… Oh! [i]Oh[i/]. She was Starrypaw… no, Starrywisp now? His head hurt from all of the memories slowly making their way back to him. He had been with her not that long ago if he remembered right. The two of them had done something… Fighting…? No, that couldn’t be it, he had no reason to fight a clanmate from what he could tell. Oh, right! An assessment! He was the one who handled her assessment!

A swirl of unfamiliar emotions hit him as a warm wetness stained his cheeks. Why… Why did she have to die? He didn’t know why her death affected him so much, or why death felt so familiar to him, but he knew that this wasn’t right. She didn’t deserve to die so soon after her warrior ceremony. From the bits and pieces of memories he was currently able to put together, Starrywisp had been a relatively cheerful cat so why…?

Deciding that he should at least bring her back to camp so someone who was actually put together could handle the situation, he got closer. Frowning unhappily he grabbed the white tom by his scruff and dragged him the rest of the way to the border. If memory served him correctly, there was a stretch of the border that had become something of a ravine. After finding the spot in question, he flicked the corpse into it. He wasn’t quite sure what to do with the body, but leaving it on the other clan’s side of the border for them to discover and potentially blame them (him specifically) just didn’t seem smart. It was a shame for the body to be discarded in such a manner, but he was blaming the tom for the death of the warrior he had felt that he had been growing attached to, so it was fine. Well, it wasn’t fine, but he’d have to process that emotion later.

Making his way back to Starrywhisp’s corpse, he was able to pick up two other scents. Finch (Larkfire) and another one that he couldn’t quite place. Even if he still had all of his memories he doubted that he’d remember the scent of the cat, as it was heavily overshadowed by the scent of the other clan as well as not being familiar enough with it to recall who it belonged to. He looked around and upon not immediately finding the healer whimpered softly. He wanted to look for her, he really did as he didn’t know her current status, but he had no way of knowing which direction she had gone – the scent of blood was just that overpowering. He’d have to pray that she was fine. He’d come back out to look for her later.

Wiping the tears out of his eyes, Darkfall grabbed the corpse of his deceased clanmate and began the long trek back to the clan’s camp. Someone had to know about this.

Leafpaw padded into the area, waiting for the other cats. After he had heard Vulturefang, the assumed mute apprentice had raced to his area. Leafpaw lifted his muzzle to sniff for anything he could report. Leafpaw rubbed himself on a tree to mark part of the border that was getting a bit stale with Shadowclan scent. Leafpaw bared his teeth over the border as he scented a few cats, another patrol.? No? Hmm.
Keeping his eyes narrowed with defense and ears perked with caution he licked his lips and flicked his tail upward.

Leafpaw looked at Petalfire. His minty green eyes still narrowed. Seeing a small lump in the ground he sniffed it, realizing it was some overgrown roots. Leafpaw suddenly mewed, it was wordless. The maine coon flicked his long and fluffy tail as he twitched his brown ears.
The assumed mute tom kept staring across the border as if he expected a cat to jump out of the bushes at any moment.

"Halt!" Foxstrike barked. How dare this cat enter ShadowClan! Bloom looked up. The strange-smelling newcomer looked very unfriendly. "Hi, I'm Bloom!" Bloom stretched and smiled. If this new cat wasn't friendly, then maybe is she was friendly that would change. "I wandered off my fence in Twoleg place and got lost. Where am I?" Bloom asked politley.

Leading the other two out toward the Shadowclan border, he doesn't say much of anything until they're there. This was to be an easy herb patrol. Sticks were abundant, even in Leafbare, and from what he knew a lot of plants grew their berries in the cold. For some reason. And Drizzlecloud had never mentioned that they would be difficult to find, unlike some of the other requests she had made, so he can only assume that his limited knowledge is correct. Gaze sweeping across the silent space, his gaze turns back onto Featherpaw, eyes kind but voice stern.

"Be mindful of the border... The last thing we need is anyone getting hurt. Alright?" A quick glance is cast in the other warrior's direction but he says nothing to him before looking back at the apprentice. "If you see or smell anything just let one of us know. If you're nervous you're more than welcome to stay close to me and we can look together."

"You are also welcome to accompany myself if you wish," Lioncrest rumbled, confident tone echoing into the area as he carefully scanned the border. "I will be heading along this edge; call out if you spot any frog-eaters, even on their side of the border. We don't wish for any surprises."

Peeling off towards the right side of the border, Lioncrest entered a brisk trot as he surveyed his surroundings. Might as well also mark their side of the border while he hunted for suitable branches and perhaps those berries... Long golden fur brushed up against foliage as he moved, amber eyes scanning for threats and his assigned collection task.

There seemed to be a few suitable sticks up ahead... Padding over, the large tom gave them each a cursory strength test with his paws before deeming them suitable, scooping them up into his jaws and continuing his search. (+2 sticks)

____________________________________

Featherpaw breathed in deeply as they approached Herondive Hollow, taking in the familiar scent of the pine forest. It was bitter-sweet to think of her old clan, the bitter made all the worse by the fact she couldn't talk about it. As far as most of ThunderClan knew, she was Whistlewing's daughter and nothing else, and that was the way it had to stay.

They felt a little of the tension they were holding wash away at Yarrowcrest's offer to stick close. They were nervous, even if not for the reasons they should be. Mostly, they worried that Valleystrike would appear over the border, reminding them of everything they'd worked to leave behind - or perhaps worse, that Cloudpaw would be there, and they'd have to ignore him and go about their duties despite how much they missed their little brother.
My duties. Right. Featherpaw dragged her attention back to the herb patrol.

"I think I will stay with you, if you really don't mind," she mewed to Yarrowcrest. She watched Lioncrest go off on his own. She appreciated his offer too, but... part of her felt... weird... after his 'frog-eaters' comment. Another thing I'm going to have to get used to sooner or later.
"Should we see how many juniper berries we can find, and then make up the rest of what we can carry with sticks maybe?" they suggested, hoping they weren't overstepping. They figured it wouldn't take too much looking to find sticks, so the berries were the real task, right?

The last few moons had been soooo boring.

It was baffling to Shadefrost how cat's were able to go about there lives doing nothing of interest. What made it worse was the fact that those same cats, which was most of his clan, expected him to follow in their footsteps, leading an equally dull life like some stupid mouse. Honestly, it was really aggravating. And not just because it wasn't fun. He was a wild card by nature, if he changed himself just because it annoyed some lesser entity, then what type of a cat would he be.

Happily the warrior padded through the cold forest, the lovely hums of a (made up) melody sounding throughout the forest. How long had it been since he'd done this? The warrior's heart pounded rapidly with exhilaration and excitement. His tail flicking to and fro, while his claws slid in and out Wonder who I'll find today, he thought right as he crossed the border that separated Thunderclan and Shadowclan.

Nightgaze
Thunderclan Hornet

This had been boring so far, unnerving though. Nightgaze hated being so close to the clan of fox-hearts that seemed to always leap at the chance to stir up trouble. She hated them with all of her being, but she had a job to do and a duty to the clan so she wouldn't complain. She'd never complain.

Suddenly a sound hit her ears. Humming. It wasn't her clanmates' voice because she would've scented them and the most recent hint of Thunderclan was as old as yesterday but Shadowclan scent was still freesh. Instantly unsheathing her claws, the small she-cat crouched down in an effort to stay out of view and who did she see? No one else but her least favourite Shadowclanner. Gritting her teeth she barely stifled a hiss but managed to stay quiet at least until she had restrained herself from leaping at the black tom immediately and came up with a quick tactic.

Swiftly creeping into the undergrowth, Nightgaze tried to make her way behind Shadefrost by circling around him, making sure to place each pawstep with the utmost care but in fast steps. Making it somewhere behind the tom's view, Night held her breath, staying crouched there silent for a few seconds before taking action. Bursting out of the bushes like a bullet she immediately used her full force to sort of lunge/throw herself at the intruder in an attempt to tackle him and pin him or at the very least wind him.

The dense foliage rustled softly as Shade continued his steady trot through the heart of the forest, his keen senses attuned to the pulse of the wilderness around him. Shadows danced playfully upon the forest floor, their movements mirroring the intricate dance of the branches above. "Well, that didn't take long," he remarked in a low mew, the words almost lost in the howling of wind.

A tantalizing scent, fresh and unmistakably ThunderClan, wafted through the air, enveloping Shadefrost's senses like a cloak. His feline instincts tingled with delight, a subtle spark that threatened to grow into a full-blown flame. Yet, he remained composed, his trotting pace unwavering, and his voice, still a soft hum, echoing off the ancient trees.

In the heartbeat that followed, a loud racket sounded from behind the black warrior alerting him to the ambush that'd been set. Letting his reflexes leap into action, the warrior pivoted his agile frame to dodge the cat's incoming attack. However, when he'd gotten a better look at who he was dealing with, he felt his mood deject in an instant. "Oh," he said disappointingly, "it's just you Tiny Twin. Hey, I guess. I thought you were someone else."

"Sounds good to me. Now let's see here..."

[I][ Yarrowcrest rolled a 16 to search for juniper berries! ]

Thankfully it doesn't take him long at all to find the bush of needle leaves and blue berries. Glancing to the apprentice at his side, he smiles reassuringly, before motioning toward their target with a swish of his tail. Once he was sure she was following close behind, he pads over to the creeping shrub, eyeing it's sharp leaves curiously. What an odd looking bush... Never seen one quite like it. Nonetheless, their target was found-- or he's assuming so, based on the description he was given by Drizzlecloud-- so he gets to work chewing through branches, careful not to poke himself in the mouth on those sharp needles.

After having chewed through two branches and watching them call unceremoniously to the ground beneath them, his gaze turns to Featherpaw once more.

"Did you want to try gathering them? If not I can break some more off for you to carry. They're a bit sharp so I understand if you'd prefer for me to do it."

~ Lioncrest ~

It seemed as if the berries he had been assigned to locate evaded his searching eyes as he padded along the border. A frustrated huff escaped his muzzle, and the large golden tom resigned himself to collecting a few more solid sticks for Drizzlecloud's stores. Spotting a hefty branch at the base of a tree, Lioncrest approached the fallen piece of tree with a spark of indignation and gave it a few cursory baps with his paws before rearing back onto his rear legs and slamming his weight against wood to split off a few solid sticks from the larger branch. (+3 sticks)

Once he had enough pieces separated, the large warrior collected his bundle (a few in his jaw and the last couple tucked under his chin) and padded back towards the other members of his patrol.

[roll for sticks (d4): 4]
While Yarrowcrest gnawed away at the berry branches, Featherpaw looked around for some sticks, not wandering too far. It wasn't too difficult to find sticks in a forest, so they chose four sturdy ones, carrying them back to their patrol leader as the second branch dropped.

Featherpaw looked at the plant warily. It did look spiky, but she didn't want Yarrowcrest to do all the work on her very first patrol. He'd done the work of finding the berries, so she would get her own branch off.

"I can do it," they mewed, hesitantly biting into the branch. They chewed carefully, not wanting to get a needle to the mouth - not only would it hurt, it would be embarrassing to mess up after they'd said they would do it themselves.

After what felt like forever, her branch fell. Success! But... looking at the bush with 3 branches chewed off...
"Is..." she hesitated. She didn't know anything about herbs, so maybe it was fine but... "Is the bush gonna be okay? Drizzlecloud will need more of these once she runs out, right? Chewing off the branches will bring her more now, but it... won't mean less next time, right?"

Featherpaw marked as she walked, following the warriors on her patrol along the ShadowClan border. She hadn't been this close since she'd left - even on her herb patrol she'd only been in the general area, staying away from the actual border.

"Yeah, Fernwillow and I did some hunting training, and then she took me out on a few patrols, just her and me. We're onto battle training now," they mewed, sniffing the border to check for anything out of the ordinary.

"Why'd Spiderthroat send us to Herondive for hunting anyway? There's never any prey here," she mewed, trying to hide her annoyance. "I don't think he'll be that pleased if we bring back a bunch of crickets, and that's all that's here."

‘If this apprentice is freaking out over a frog or something,’ Petalfire thinks, ‘I’m going to make them run all the way back to camp.’


Leafpaw's ears were still alert as a two beady yellow eyes glared at him from a bush, a tail popped over the bush on the Thunderclan side and suddenly a purr arose into the air.

(On Thunderclans side)
Whispernight gave a hearty purr as she revealed herself to the apprentice and Petalfire. "Hello~" She purred, her voice smooth like honey and calming like a still body of water. Her yellow eyes gleamed as she looked at Leafpaw. "You've grown..... so much little warrior" she giggled.

Leafpaw froze as he stared at the she-cat. "M... h-how did you know I was here" He growled lightly, his fur standing on end, not of fear of anger. But just by the odd calmness in her tone that seemed to sooth him the wrong way.

If she didn't manage to kill him, she wanted to scar him at minimum. Give him something to remember her by that wasn't just her appearance.

She did not trust them not to attack anyone if she was honest, especially after the drama that had happened here. She marked a part of the border that seemed to be needing refreshing, then turned to Featherpaw.

Uh.. that was a good question. There was literally no prey here, as the dried up swamp was almost lifeless. "Not sure. Maybe we'll find something on the way back to camp? I don't think we will have any luck here," she mewed with a tilt of her head.

Huh. That was a good point. Yarrowcrest hadn't thought of that. This apprentice had quite the head on her shoulders. Nodding to her in acknowledgement, Yarrowcrest takes another look at the bush and sets down his branches so he can speak.

"They'll grow back with time. I just figured this was the easiest way to transport the berries, since we don't have a leaf to make a bundle for them. Maybe next time we can try finding a nice big leaf and leave the branches. Now that we've found what we're looking for, let's find Lioncrest and head back."

Smiling once more, he picks up his branches and heads back toward where he can see Lioncrest waiting. He nods in his direction, indicating that they were ready to head back, and he begins to lead the way back to camp. He can only hope the other two will follow without issue.

There would be other opportunities to show up this younger tom. Other opportunities to cement his social standing...

Heh, yeah, I know right. Totally crazy. When Shadefrost had so blatantly ignored the border that separated the clan's of Shadow and Thunder by crossing it without a care in the world, he'd honestly expected to find a cat that emitted an aura of strength to challenge him. He wanted someone who could at the very least make him a bit fearful for his own safety. Someone that gave him the adrenaline rush he so craved in these minuscule border spats by dealing enough damage to leave him a bloody corpse if he made the wrong move.

But Tinytwin was the exact opposite of that. Skilled? Eh, maybe. Smart? Not likely since she was picking a fight she couldn't win, but maybe. On a good day that is. Amusing? [B]DEFINITELY[/B,] especially when she was angry or trying to act tough. But strong? Now that was a word more suited for a mouse than the tom's sibling-like fly. But she was a Thunderclan cat, not even a real member of the feline species. She couldn't understand that. And Shade was pretty sure that if he tried to, she’d just throw a fit and try to attack him.

Dang it! Now that Tinytwin made him think about it more, the urge to hit his head against a rock was beginning to root itself deeper and deeper in Shade’s mind. How could he have forgotten? The squirrels were in a drought when it came to challenging fighters. That’d been the main reason why he stopped frequenting this part of the forest in the first place. So was this a waste of time then? Did he have to go all the way over to Riverclan if he wanted to have some fun? Would they be able to give the tom a run for his prey?

Hmm. Hmmm. Hmmmm. Nah, that was too much work and Shade was feeling lazy now, he’d just shake his little pest off and go deeper until he found somone worth his time. Afterall, Thunderclan had a new deputy now, right? Maybe if he found him, he’d be better entertainment than Alderstep was. Just then Shade was brought back to reality when his doppelganger began to spew some stupid crap about trespassing. Then she tried to make it seem as if she was serious by saying she’d KILL him for it, as if.

Shadefrost would have actually laughed in her face had she not lashed out with her claws, but it wasn’t like it was anything flashy. All the black hearted warrior did was take a step backwards and he was out of harm's reach. Cocking his head to the side as an arrogant smile slid across his features, Shade resorted to the second best weapon in his deadly arsenal. Good ol’ pure, unadulterated, superiority-complex. “Let’s get a few things straight here,” he said in a sharp condescending growl, “This so called ‘territory of yours’ isn’t yours. Its land that Shadowclan allows the weak, ungrateful, medicine cat attacking, brats that call themselves one of the four great clans of this forest to occupy.”

He took a short break, a bit of anger starting to fill his voice as he spoke. He hadn’t been there when Larkfire, or Lostspark if that's what cats were calling her these days, had arrived in camp with her eyes clawed out and her body mangled. The news had reached him through the gossip that was going around, and even then he hadn't believed them until he'd seen her with his own eyes. Shade had never really liked the medicine cat apprentice, they were exact opposites in every single way imaginable. But in that moment, there was a deep anger on her behalf and Shade wanted to make someone hurt in order to sate it. Of course, that was only a spur of the moment thing, though it did sorta prompt Shadefrost in this direction.

“But,” he continued, “for some odd reason, you pack of idiots have it in your mind that you can bite the paw that allows you to exist in this world and not suffer the consequences of your actions. So be it. If you want to fight I'll give each and every one of you one. But trust and believe you won't like the outcome.” Of course Shade wasn't going to try and kill Tinytwin the same way she was more than likely going to try and do to him, seeing as how she was his most favorite Thunderclanner in the entire forest, but he would most definitely break her leg if she didn't take the hint. Taking a battle ready stance Shadefrost would conclude his speech by saying, “You're the only one that'll get a pass weakling, move or you'll regret.”

Ah yes, now it was time for the mocking. Same old, same old. This cat seemed to love taunting her in an attempt to make her, what? Cry? Run away? Hah!

Oh, and another thing, I'm afraid all Shadowclanners have to be killed on site, not my choice, so I'm afraid you're not gonna get out of here alive." each word was laced with mocking but had seriousness behind it. She was not joking, she was simply speaking the truth. Adding one last sarcastic remark on the end she also got herself in a fighting position "Oh, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a weakling, don't think I would've been made a Hornet then, if I was."

Listening politely to whatever Tinytwin had to say, Shadefrost was taken aback by the last few words that came out of the molly's mouth. A... Hornet...? The tom blinked a few times, not really sure as to what she was trying to tell him. Well correction, he had an idea, but was really praying that wasn't the case.

Tilting his head to the side, Shade gave his near lookalike an inquisitive yet dumbfounded stare, "So, I think there might be some type of communication issue going on here," he said plainly. The cockiness gone from his voice, as what could have only been true concern rested on his facial features.

"I'm going to repeat what I just heard you say, and you tell me if what I said was correct, okay." Shadefrost droped his definsive stance, though he was still very much on guard, and took a seat. "So apparently, Bumblebrat has a kill on sight order out for any and every Shadowclan cat, which is why I'm going to die today. But the reason why you think that is possible is because you were made into a bug which gave you... What? The super strength to do it or something?"

If Shade didn't know any better he would have thought his twin was joking. But something told him she was being serious. "You haven't eaten any of those hallucinatory berries or anything like that right?" He asked. "If so, you should really give your medicine cat a visit right about now. The last thing I'd want is to lose my sister to the dumbest cause of death ever."

Featherpaw let out a sigh. Well, she'd better at least try to hunt something, or Spiderthroat might get cross with her. Like it's not his own fault for sending us to hunt in Herondive, she thought, tail lashing in annoyance. "I'll be back," she mewed to her patrol mates. Surely she was old enough that they wouldn't make a fuss. "I won't go far! Just having a quick look for some prey."

[ roll perception (disadvantage): 5, 5 // 12, 2 // 10, 5 ]
Wow, they found nothing but crickets. No surprises there. They huffed, moving a little further down the border. They kept stealthy, just in case they did happen to run into any prey - it wasn't too difficult, the pine forest much easier to keep quiet in than the usual forests of ThunderClan.

(@Levi 99 (https://warriorcatsonline.com/forums/member.php?u=13698) @The Doctor (https://warriorcatsonline.com/forums/member.php?u=18562))
The sound of voices made her stop short. Was it a ShadowClan patrol? She strained her ears to hear, creeping closer. Once she was close enough to hear them clearly she peeked from the shadows to see what was happening, confident her stealth would keep her from being spotted.

Two cats, one from each of the clans Featherpaw was from by the smell of it. They were crouched like they were going to fight, but... they seemed to be doing a lot more talking than any fighting. It didn't look like either of them had taken a single swing! They pricked their ears to listen.

"I'm pretty sure I'm not a weakling, don't think I would have been made a Hornet, then."
Huh? What was a ThunderClan Hornet doing just standing around while a ShadowClan cat trespassed? She pulled her ears back, watching as they just... continued talking. Then, even worse, the ShadowClan cat just sat down! Like he didn't even care that he was trespassing! Like the cat in front of him was no danger at all! She was so stunned she almost missed what he said next.

"The last thing I'd want is to lose my sister to the dumbest cause of death ever."
Their heart stopped in their chest. His sister? It was... just like them and Cloudpaw.
But I don't meet Cloudpaw at the border! I only talk to him at gatherings! But then... what if they met him at the border one day? Would they really just ignore their brother? Or would they do exactly what these cats were doing, and talk to him?
Cloudpaw would never cross the border, they thought to themself, stomach churning.

She watched the pair of ThunderClan/ShadowClan siblings, a mix of fury and envy burning in her gut. She was torn. She should report this to Bumblestar - a Hornet just chatting to a ShadowClan border crosser? She never talked to Cloudpaw, and these two just decided to do whatever they wanted! Did their clans mean nothing to them? But another part of her felt dismayed at the idea of turning in maybe the only cat in her clan who understood what she was going through.

Suddenly, they couldn't bear to watch another moment of it. They slipped away, returning to her patrol with the sick feeling that it was inevitable that they were going to stumble across the two in a moment anyway.

Featherpaw made a decision, almost subconscious - she stepped on a twig as she left, the sharp snap a warning to the two, if they bothered to pay attention to their surroundings. Someone is here, it said. Fight, or get lost - before you get caught. Then she ducked into the shadows once again, darting back to Eggbite and Fawnsplash.

"No luck with the hunting," they mewed as they returned, slipping out from within the pines. "Hopefully the prey runs better at the other borders." They didn't mention what they'd seen,at least not yet. If they were mousebrained enough to stick around, they'd find them soon enough. If not... well, they weren't sure what they would do then.

[starry]

Fawnsplash wondered where Eggbite had disappeared to but for the moment she didn't say anything, because surely she'd catch up to them at some point. She gave a quick nod to Featherpaw, muttering a little warning. "Careful. Don't wanna find ya dead with ShadowClan scent." She certainly didn't trust ShadowClan after everything, but she supposed they had to tolerate each other and not start fights. That was easier said than done but oh well.

Featherpaw seemed to take a while, but since the prey was scarce and there were a lot of places to look in, Fawnsplash decided not to fret for now. She continued marking the border, sniffing the air for some prey. It was useless. What did Spiderthroat expect from them?? It's not like there was ever any prey in Herondive Hollow. She was done marking the border, so she went back to her old spot, noting Featherpaw was back. "We should head back before it gets late. Dunno where Eggbite is but we should get going she'll probably follow."

Featherpaw nodded, fighting the urge to throw back a glance at the warriors she'd seen at the border. What was she supposed to do about it? To talk at the border was one thing, even if she didn't approve but to just let a ShadowClan cat trespass on their territory?

"Yeah, let's head back before Spiderthroat gets mad," they mewed. He'd seemed pretty serious about punishments for not doing patrols...

[dino.]

Something was rotting.

Bumblestar had taken Violetfreckle and Yarrowcrest out on a makeshift patrol - check the borders, maybe hunt a little bit, but this was quickly turning into something else entirely. The stench of death wafted up from the bottom of the ravine, making her turn her head in concern. "Hold up. You smell that?"

Nose twitching, she carefully approached the edge of the ravine and leaned over. Two corpses, decomposing, laid splayed out at the very bottom, and she wrinkled her nose. One of them she recognized - Albatrossflicker, a ThunderClan warrior whom she'd thought to have just gone missing. The other was unfamiliar. "Great skies," she muttered. "Help me find a path down, I wanna take a look at this."

When Bumblestar points out the scent of death tainting the air it makes his fur stand on end. It wasn't something he had encountered often. Something he only encountered at this stage of rot when it was fresh kill becoming crowfood. Knowing that it was the corpse of a former clan mate... it didn't sit well with him. Especially since the leader wanted to take a closer look. He understood why she would want to-- try and discern what had happened for them to have ended up at the bottom of a ravine. But it still felt like something was... Off. Not sure what, but definitely felt off.

He nods in understanding when she asks the two with her to help look for a path. Blue hues scan the immediate area before he's wandering away a bit to search. There's a spot he thinks may be a way down, judging by the way rocks jut out of the earth along the way toward the ground below, but thinking of skidding along or jumping down may be a bit dangerous. May as well report nonetheless.

Raccoonwhisker was overjoyed. With the recent events happening, (With all the Thunderclan war n' stuff) it left him the freedom to do whatever he wanted. He ignored borders his whole life, storming on territory and doing him. But now he can't get in trouble for it?

That meeting was heaven. His loyalty to Dawnstar went over the roof.

Walking over to Thunderclan border, he paused. Smiling with Malice. Everything beyond this line was gonna be his. Soon.

He walked over the border. Walking into Thunderclan Territory. He flipped over rocks, dug holes everywhere, and marked his territory all over the Thunderclan smell. He picked flowers and buried them in the holes. He collected rocks he found pretty. He was enjoying himself.

Padding through the forest on quiet paws, Redhawk was alert with trained eyes focused on the border. Previously untapped, rage spilled out in her chest and turned her blood cold like ice. Gentledoe. These monsters had blinded her big sister. They had scarred her and raked their claws over her face and forever changed her. A low growl rumbled in her throat and she was glad that she was out here alone; she wasn't entirely sure what her mission was, but right now all she was seeing was red.

The scent of ShadowClan hung heavy in the air and with all the noise being made it was clear that there was a trespasser. On paws that made no sound, Red scurried up a tree and used the cover of the thick branches to make her way along the tops. Just below her was a ShadowClan rat, clearly over the border and messing with their territory.

It may not have been him who blinded her sister, but right now it didn't matter.

Without so much as a sound Redhawk sprung from the trees, claws out as she aimed to land heavily on the trespassers back. If she managed to catch him off guard due to her quiet soft paws, she's bare her fangs and aim to bite fiercely into his shoulder and pin him down.

Feeling a loud ringing in his head as he felt warm blood trickle down his shoulder, he tried his best to flip the Thunderclanner off. No way he was gonna escape this battle without adding another kill to his totally not empty list. Yea.. It was FILLED with dead Thunderclanners. Gulp

Feeling the ShadowClan below her start to flip her off, Redhawk leapt from his back and landed a little ways away, digging her front claws into the ground to spin herself around so that she was facing him. Pupils were in slits. Gentledow and her sister's ShadowClan-inflicted injuries were all that was on her mind.

"Get off ThunderClan t-territory, [i]now." A normally passive and sweet cat, that version of Red was gone. Replaced was all of the pent up rage, all of the formerly encapsulated grief. She was throwing it all into this, into making ShadowClan pay.

Not waiting for a response (because the truth was, she didn't want this ShadowClanner to leave, she wanted him dead) Redhawk rushed forward him and aimed a hard smack of her claws in rapid succession towards his head, fur bristling and tail puffed out behind her. Her goal was to stun him to the point where she could lunge forward and knock him onto his back.

When he finally got a moment to breathe, he stood up. Shaking. My shoulder... Stupid Thunderclanner. He could barely hear them over his over rage and anger. His tail lashed.

"Fine, I'll L-" He felt a paw smack him. God dammit, they didn't even let him finish! How rude. He quickly ducked and dodged out of the way before any more attacks could hit him. Hissing loudly. If he wasn't clouded by his rage and anger, he would have fled. But, he lashed back at the Thunderclanner. Aiming to slash them across the face.

Fernwillow padded through the territory towards the border the ground growing wetter with every pawstep. She glanced behind her to ensure Leafpaw was following, and was pleased to see the apprentice close behind her.[B] "This is near the ShadowClan border," she explained, "you can tell by the ground becoming marshy." Leafpaw's mentor had apparently skipped this part of the border tour, though Fernwillow could understand why. She hated wet paws, and on a chilly day like this, it was the worst. Alas, Leafpaw had asked, so here she was. She didn't mind it too much.

Unbeknownst to the two cats, Dawnstar had just given the kill order on ThunderClan cats on either side of the border. A simple border tour was about to turn into something much worse.

She wouldn't lie, it felt oh so satisfying when her blow to the ShadowClanner's head landed, managing to stun him. It was only a quick victory because he dodged the next few and ducked away, leaving Redhawk to slam her claw back down into the earth. She kept her narrowed gaze on him, watching his every move and waiting for him to turn tail and flee.

A claw shot out towards her face and Red went to pull her face back - but wasn't quick enough as the claws sliced across the top of her muzzle. Letting out a sharp hiss the reddish-brown warrior shot forward in an attempt to shove the cat back, hoping that by some miracle the brute force would cause him to stumble. If so, she would lift her front claws and aim to latch them onto the ShadowClanner's shoulders and try to wrestle him to the ground.

Leafpaw could thank god that she didn't have long fur when she was walking through all this muddy ground. However, that wouldn't make a difference since the stupid mess was getting all up in her paws. She trailed her blue eyes up to look at Fernwillow as they spoke to her, momentarily forgetting about the mess below her. "And those numbskulls like living in this mess?!" she groaned out.

Raccoonwhisker let out a hiss when he thought his attack missed. Until well, it unmissed sort of. Whoever was in his head screaming for him to turn around was now gone. He was headfirst in a battle he may not escape alive from.

Quickly regaining his senses, he shot a quick glance towards the Thunderclanner who so, (Stupidly, Smartly?) dashed right at him. Most likely wanting him to stumble. The only thing he didn't know was whether to move or stand his ground. Sure, common sense was screaming at him to move. But, he may be able to land a counterattack if he managed to keep himself up. But surely that would be impossible, considering this cat was older, more experienced, and overall better than him in any possible way. Besides, he'd love to collect a piece of this cat's pelt. He wanted to build a collection from Cat-body parts.

Just grab something.. And escape... He told himself. Sadly, his gruesome thoughts of collecting body parts caused him to black out from the moment. Which led to one thing after another.

He hit the ground as the feline before him wrestled him to the ground. Causing him to fling his back legs forward. An attempt to knock them off him again. (And maybe rip off some pelt? Fur?)

Managing to pin the cat to the ground, Redhawk was quick to dig her claws into his shoulders, a loud snarl ripping from her. Blind him. In her head, a voice that hadn't been there before was screaming to rake her claws down his face, to forever change this warrior like ShadowClan had done to Gentledoe. Whenever Red thought back to the darkest parts of her apprenticeship, of her kithood - it was ShadowClan.

It was a miracle that she didn't slash a claw to his face. Caught up in thinking about what to do left her vulnerable, and sharp claws met her belly and drove the wind out of her. She could feel a mixture of fur and flesh come away as she immediately scrambled off of the ShadowClanner, creating space and taking a moment to collect her breath. The wounds stung sharply and she flattened her ears to stop the roar of blood within them.

She held up a tail for Leafpaw to stop, scenting the air. She couldn't scent the shadow leader, and her brows furrowed in confusion. "We weren't planning on it," she called out carefully, ears pressed slightly back and her green gaze scanning the border. "We are just touring." Was that the right thing to say? And why would Dawnstar tell her to get away from the border? It was ThunderClan territory after all. "We'll stay on our side." She glanced back at Leafpaw, jerking her head for her to follow, and began slowly continuing along the border. She was on high alert, poised to leap in front of Leafpaw if anything happened.

She twitched an ear as she heard the talking voice of a cat she'd heard from a gathering before. The dark apprentice stayed quiet for a few moments, letting the other speak for them to the unknown. If she was supposed to be amused she sure as hell wasn't one bit. She was more annoyed at whoever the voice was coming from, did all shadowclanners sound so full of themselves? Besides she may have not interacted with the shadowclan leader before, yet she figured that they wouldn't hide. "Oh please, hiding like a wuss is something shadowclan would do, can't even say that to our faces" she grumbled. If she still had a tail she would have whipped it in agitation already ready to what this guy looked like.

It was a good thing she was really, finally starting to heal up enough to leave camp and be useful. Because Violetfreckle was sick of being stuck in like a helpless kit. She had eagerly agreed to the patrol, and only partially because of Bumblestar. She’d hoped it would be a “just the two of them” kind of thing, but… Yarrowcrest. This was fine.

Upon smelling and seeing the bodies, the tabby she-cat took a step back from where she stood, leaned over the edge to see. Yikes. She wasn’t afraid of heights, but she certainly didn’t want to fall. Before she could say anything, Yarrowcrest found what could be a way. Hm, that would do. Moons of balancing on river-worn stepping stones made her decently confident despite her ailments. Without wasting a second, Violetfreckle carefully made her way to the bottom. She stumbled a few times and very nearly fell, but managed to stop herself. Finally, she made it to the bottom.

"I don’t know who this other cat is, but — StarClan above, the stench — even with that, they smell like ShadowClan." Violetfreckle scrambled backwards to make room for the others if they chose to join her, and to get away from the pungent smell of rot. Ick.

[dino.]

Yarrowcrest was quick to comply, and apparently Violetfreckle was quicker to get down into the ravine. Bumblestar followed carefully, slipping on a steep ledge before she managed to hop down beside her. She shot the other warrior a quick glance before pulling her eyes away. At least Violetfreckle was feeling better.

"ShadowClan, yeah," she muttered. "And- skies, all of his legs are broken. The hell happened?"

She peered down at the pair of bodies and then sidestepped them, trying to piece together whatever had occurred. The ShadowClanner seemed battered, damaged beyond what could be considered any normal attack. Albatrossflicker's throat had been shredded by brutal claws. Bumblestar's first instinct was to consider this the unfortunate result of a skirmish between the two, but that didn't make sense. If Albatrossflicker's throat had been sliced, he couldn't have finished his assault on the ShadowClanner - if the ShadowClanner had been the one to cut his throat open, then even such a fall from the edge of the ravine surely wouldn't have been enough to shatter all four limbs. Something else was at work her.

She raked her eyes over them, ignoring the flies the buzzed, and then squinted. "Help me get them up to solid ground. I need to look at this more closely."

He didn't want to go down there. He didn't want to look at it. But the last thing he needed was for the older warriors below to berate him for his cowardice. Gritting his teeth he makes his way down the ravine carefully, weaving along down the rocks that jut out from the cliffside until his paws reach solid ground. Even from where he was standing he could smell it. The terrible stench of death. Not wanting to get closer but knowing he must, he creeps forward with ears folded back, blue hues widened in alarm at the state of the bodies they've come across.

"Stars above..."

It's all he can manage before he has to look away, the feeling of bile rising up his throat. Eyes screw tightly shut and he heaves a long breath to recollect himself. Bumblestar asks for help bringing the bodies back up the ravine and the fear tightens it's grip on him, the young warrior chancing an uneasy look back at his leader as he nods in response to the order. He awaits her instruction on how he is to help, doing his best to keep his attention elsewhere so he doesn't feel the looming threat of fainting once again.

Pain ripped through her wounds as Redhawk fought against a wave of nausea. This was the first actual battle she could remember being in for a long while, her claws rusty. If it wasn't for the immense grief she felt from her sister no longer being alive, she was pretty sure this fight would've been over earlier. Paw steps scrambling in the dirt had her head shooting up, and she watched as the ShadowClanner got to his paws.

He didn't make an advance forward, so for now Red just stared him down. Blood still trickled from the claw wound on her face but she ignored it as much as she could. Briefly in her mind the training she'd had with Bumblestar flashed through, and she wondered if she would be able to execute it. "Last c-chance," she spat towards the ground, unsheathing her claws once more, "get off of my C-Clans territory." Silently, she hoped the warrior would continue fighting. She wanted to break something - and sincerely hoped she could start with one of his legs.

Raccoonwhisker's tail lashed behind him. A smirk that looked so punchable slowly spread across his face. I must have done some good damage, they don't look okay... Honestly, he felt bad. But he felt glad he managed to weaken the older Warrior quickly. Pride easily overpowered his guilt.

Would he go for the kill? Or would he just walk deeper into Thunderclan Territory? He hadn't made up his mind. Maybe if I book it, they won't be able to catch me anyway. He slowly backed away, as if he was going to leave. He did leave, just deeper into Thunderclan territory.

Yellowpaw was practically exploding with excitement! The day had come! His plans were unraveling! It felt as if it was a sign from the stars to fell thunderclan! He didn't need some dead freaks telling him what to do, even more so since he wanted to since before then. He was literally the best. Better than Vulturefang, Lostspark, any of'em! For once, his life was taking a turn for the better.

After the loss of Drippingpelt and his snout flesh, he thought it was going to be a downward spiral. Turns out, he was going to get what he wanted most.

a squirrel.

Both kinds: the cat kind and the kind of prey, which he was sort of curious about.

It was extremely convenient that they both had the same habitat, which made it pretty easy to kill them both. Hmm, Yellowpaw said tiny squirrel first. He hoped some kits snuck out, heheheh.

Unfortunately, he wasn't allowed to go alone, although he had found someone to go with him. He was to busy scheming to care about the fact that he hadn't interacted with this cat at all. Witheredclaw had come, of whom also wanted to commit legal crime. Didn't everyone, though? Crime is funny, revenge is necessary, and why the hell not.

His tail high, he stopped at the edge of thunderclan territory. he just had an idea. "Hey, Witheredclaw, let's disguise our scent so we don't get attacked." He suggested.

Witheredclaw-56 moons-She/Her

Some kit wanted to cause trouble, so here she was. Babysitting. Making sure the brat didn't get himself killed while sharpening his own killer instinct. A mean glare watched the young tom reach ThunderClan's border they shared, and from the concealing tall grass the monstrous warrior emerged. Ragged and covered in battle scars, Witheredclaw limped over to his side, her face twisted into a sneering scowl that hid the pain the limp caused all the way up to her shoulder.

Only because one paw was horrendously disfigured. A birth defect, that left the brown and grey tabby with a mangled, twisted paw...and abnormal growth in her claws. One such claw was what Witheredclaw referred to as her 'talon'. An enlarged, massive claw in the center of her paw- The source of her limp and pain as each step sent the sharp spasms whenever the claw pushed from the ground.

But she wasn't about to let any cat see her weakness. Her pain. Her misery. They didn't care, and they never would. So be it. For a moment, the cold, amber glare slid down to Yellowpaw, and he could see...just for a moment...a thought cross the mangled warrior's mind.

Yellowpaw was very fortunate that he was ShadowClan....and that someone knew she had accompanied him on this little....quest.


The comment of disguising their scent made a tattered ear flick, and the gaze finally slid back as Witheredclaw surveyed the border, sniffing for any sign of an enemy patrol. Oh she hoped she saw one...
"If you want to be a coward. If you're looking for a fight..why hide?" Witheredclaw sneered. Her voice was terrible; Like two course rocks rubbing and grinding together, as if she spoke with a perpetual snarl or growl her entire life...which she did, "Oh, oh I see...you want to be...sneaky? Is there something other than a little hunting on your mind?" Witheredclaw didn't pretend to care in either expression or tone even as she pried. She flexed her claws, tapping them jarringly against the ground.

"If you want to stink up the whole territory, there's a patch of garlic on the other side of that bend." She twisted her neck around to stare off at an alder tree that had fallen over. She would have used her tail..had she a tail and not a stump. "Bring back a clump for me." She turned and sat down a fox-length from the border. Even if a patrol did come, she was well inside her territory, simply watching for any ThunderClan invaders. That was the story until further notice.

He was just going to... leave? The way he moved was slow, and Redhawk didn't trust that he was actually going to go back. So when he made a break for it in the territory the skinny reddish-brown warrior was quick to follow, lunging for his hind quarters with outstretched claws. She aimed to latch them in as deep as she would and, if secured, pull the wretched ShadowClanner back towards her, because there was no way she would allow them to go even further into ThunderClan territory.

"W-Wrong move," she snarled as she aimed to fasten her teeth in a vicious, nasty bite towards their back in the hopes to get them to stop fleeing into ThunderClan territory.

His plan half worked, and he managed to gain some ground. Thoughts of success ran through his brain like Train tracks. Choo choo.

As soon as he heard loud pounding pawprints behind him, his stomach fell to his paws. They were right behind him, catching up pretty quickly. Shoot... They were fast. He ducked, ready to vanish in the bushes if he could.

A loud hiss escaped from his mouth as he felt a sharp pain in his back. He instantly fell back, onto whatever was attacking him. His claws effortlessly scraping the ground in an attempt to gain some footing. Did this idiot just bite me? How the hell...? He swayed his claws in the air. The Thunderclanner had a clear grasp on him.

As she managed to snag the trespasser with her claws and give him a rather fierce bite that would definitely leave a mark - at least she hoped - Redhawk took advantage of the situation and essentially used her claws to scramble up until she had the tom pinned underneath her, fangs barred. "I don't w-want to kill you, b-but I will if you don't g-get off of o-our territory," she snapped, keeping him trapped under her claws until she had an answer she liked.

Stars, if adrenaline hadn't been pumping through her Red knew she would be a nervous wreck. Hell, she knew once this threat was dealt with she would likely crumple like a leaf under paw. But she had to maintain her resolve here, and deal with this threat, just like she knew Bumblestar would.

Racconwhisker snarled as he was tossed against the floor. Dirt mixing with blood. That rough bite on his back would leave a bruise... a scar at most. Leaning slightly to the side, he noticed one of the rocks he liked. The color really stood out to him. He half smiled.

"Fine, I'll leave." He said, growling under his breath. Waiting for the Thunderclanner to get off of him.

It was a conflict in her mind, of whether or not she should let go of him. The anger she felt at her sisters death was still pumping through her, still tinting her vision red. Redhawk wanted to make this cat, and ShadowClan, feel every ounce of pain she had felt upon learning of her sister's demise. Her claws dug in deeper and she let out a snarl.

...But after a moment Red stepped off and allowed the tom to get up. She stood firmly in front of ThunderClan territory so that the tom wouldn't be able to go any further. "Back a-across the border. N-Now." She jerked her head, praying to the stars above that he would leave.

Racconwhisker spat out blood. He shook his fur as he stood up. His back still stinging with pain. He sent a mean glare towards the molly. She was standing in his way, he couldn't go and snatch that rock quickly. It would have looked so nice in his collection...

Taking a deep breath, he walked towards the Shadowclan border. Crossing over and heading back to camp.

Yellow-green eyes watched as the ShadowClanner retreated, growing closer towards the border, and then eventually disappearing deeper into ShadowClan territory. Redhawk held her resolve for a beat, then another... until her legs shook feverishly and she collapsed onto the ground. All of the adrenaline from the little fight was gone and suddenly the wounds on her flank stung as well as the small ones on her face. Tears spilled from her eyes as she buried her face into her paws and curled up on the ground. She missed her sister... so much. She had thought that by going out and seeking a fight with a ShadowClan cat, the Clan who had taken her sister's eyesight, that it would at least start to fill up the big, black hole she felt in her chest.

But no. It was still as empty and big as ever and it left Red curled up on the forest floor, tears silently falling and dampening her fur. She knew she should get back to camp, perhaps even get the wounds on her side looked at. But moving wasn't even a thought in the reddish-brown Somali mix's head. All she wanted to do - all she could do - was lay there and pray that energy would soon find her paws again to lead her home.

Fernwillow growled low in her throat at the threat, turning her head to face the voice. "I don't take threats from someone who won't show their face." She snapped. The only reason she did so was because she figured Dawnstar wouldn't cross the border, but she still began herding Leafpaw away from it. Does this cat have nothing better to do than harrass warriors that pass by the border? Leafpaw didn't need to deal with this.

"Shadefrost! With me," was the only command Hawkbite would give the warrior as he exited the camp. He'd hoped the warrior was sensible enough to just follow along.

"We're retrieving catchweed, but we're doing it here," Hawkbite spoke, gesturing towards the direction of the border. They weren't quite there yet and Hawkbite spoke in a semi-hushed tone in case there was a patrol about. Not that they could've heard him from a distance anyway, but who knew. "Follow my lead."

Once they were close enough, Hawkbite led them alongside the border, marking the area and acting as though he were holding a standard border patrol, hoping Shadefrost was smart enough to get the idea. Hawkbite was actually scouting out for any ThunderClanners before he'd cross over. He'd gotten information of a patch of the herbs nearby so until he caught scent of that, he'd walk the border. "Let me know if you scent anything off," so far so good, at least from what he could tell.

The Commander was hiding in the shadows watching the entire encounter. He didn't know what Raccoowhisker wanted on that side of the border, but he'd remember the warrior breaking Dawnstar's direct orders about crossing alone. Shameful if he said so himself. [ Spookez. ] He watched as the warrior slinked back off towards the camp, perhaps he'd confront them later about this encounter.

His eyes darted back towards the ThunderClanner, his fur bristling. He so badly wanted to sink his claws into their pelt, the grief from the murder of his apprentice still fresh. He was smarter than that though, he was almost certain there would be another cat nearby.

Besides that, the warrior had slumped down and started crying? He couldn't attack a pitiful creature like that! A dark chuckle escaped the tabby as he crept out of the shadows and stood a tail length from the border. His eyes were gleaming with mockery. "What's this?" The Commander spat towards the molly. "Are all ThunderClanners like this?"

His tail lashed as he awaited her acknowledgement. Then a memory came back to him. "This is very familiar, yes. So very familiar," Hawkbite began, a dark smirk finding it's way on his lips as he reminisced. "Reminds me of that one warrior Bumblestar really liked. . . I don't recall the name but boy oh boy did her green eye make a wonderful gift to Dawnstar! That warrior looked as pathetic as you do right now," Hawkbite spat with a grimace.

After a moment of letting those words settle around her, not knowing the significance they'd actually hold for her, he was ready to turn around and leave her.

No one was respecting the border, everyone was mean, Mudhound was grumpy, humpf humpf hurumpf! The large maine coon mix's face was contorted in an uncharacteristic frown as they stomped along, straight plowing through bushes and low branches as they did.

The tripods single back leg hurt still, wrapped in cobwebs to protect it as the last of the blisters from mild frostbite healed but at least they were walking due to their weirdly fast healing rate. And where were they walking? To yet another area of MEANIES! Yes it wasnt just River-jerks, but also Shadow-bullies! Stories had come trickling in of cats invading onto thunderclans territory and stealing or just attacking for no reason! What MEANIES!

Well they wouldnt be getting across if Mudhound had anything to say about it! No one bullies their clan and potentially harms their apprentices or takes food from their leaf bare hungry mouth!

The large warrior stomped through the brush, tail lashing behind them as they remarked the border, eventually coming upon the ravine that they'd fought a bunch of foxes at so long ago. The log bridge was still there and- HEY! So was a cat!

He moved quickly through the undergrowth, keeping his paws light and not lingering in a spot for more than a couple seconds as he tracked the scent he was following.

Finally -- once he was a little ways over the border -- he found the little plant that Lostspark had sent him out here for. He grabbed a mouthful, turning to gesture towards Shadefrost to do the same, his green hues darting around to keep watch as the warrior hopefully listened.

At Bumblestar's comments, she looked closer at the body -- yep, all four legs seemed to be mangled. Violetfreckle felt something unpleasant stir in her stomach. At the comment on getting them to solid ground, the she-cat couldn't help but throw an incredulous look Bumblestar's way. Getting out of this Starsdamned ravine alone in the ice and snow would be difficult enough, but dragging a corpse up with?? "Are you sure this is a good idea?" She asked, quirking a catbrow. Violetfreckle wasn't one to shy away from a challenge, but this was less of a challenge and more of a death sentence. Especially for her, she thought as she gave her bad shoulder a few licks.

Bumblestar's tail swept once across the ground. "Gotta get 'em out somehow. Just be careful, go slow. You 'n Yarrowcrest take Albatrossflicker, I'll get the ShadowClanner."

Twisting awkwardly in the tight space of the ravine, she managed to finagle the corpse onto her back and scoot past the other two.

The climb up was equally as awkward. The ice and snow made the already-steep path up slick and hard to reclimb and she nearly twisted her paws at multiple points by the time she made it to the top.

With a huff, she let the body slip from her back to the ground and bent to inspect it. It was odd - all legs broken, no fur between the claws to hint at a fight, so what had happened here? A freak accident? Then what of Albatrossflicker?

It was pure chance that Mudhound was here at this moment. Naught but chance. Maybe sound houndish instinct had guided them here to guard what was theirs and maybe some fated hook in their soul guided them to come to save Redhawk for reasons that would come clearer later. In this moment it was unclear but was clear was this.

Redhawk was there, laying in a pool of their own blood at the border with shadowclan stink around, a foul thing standing close to taunt her. Mudhound did not hesitate to figure out that he hadnt been the one to attack and had clean paws, they recognized the cat that tore out Gentledoe's eye and the split second of devastation they saw form on Redhawks mind propelled them forward like a shot.

It was not a roar or a yowl that the maine coon let out as they launched themselves forward across the border at Hawkbite, but a booming bark of a dog that could be summed up with the words
KILL YOU BITE YOU!



Teeth closed with a snap as Mudhound aimed at the jugular but more then likely got closer to the shoulder, claws flashing out to hook and tear whatever flesh the large warrior could reach before slamming them down. It was a quick and sudden attack, successful or not, and the tripod cat didnt even seem to care they'd been the one to cross the border as they stood, face to face with Hawkbite and roared "MONSTER! FOUL VILE CREATURE, YOU LASH OUT BUT I SEE YOU FOR WHAT YOU ARE!" The warrior panted in great heaves, for once resembling their sister Bumblestar in fury. "You are hollow and empty inside. You are nothing but violence that will be forgotten when youre gone because cats only fear you for it and with it no one can love you."

A sound, any sound broke Mudhound from their single minded focus and a folded ear twitched to her. They wanted to bite, they wanted to kill this tom for his crimes but he wasnt important beyond that. Hawkbite was a task to check off to better everyone with his death but Redhawk was important. Her self, her well being, her safety was important and more so then this self inflated frog. Hawkbite could wait, not a priority but Redhawk could not.

Eyes fixed on the shadowclan warrior to dodge any move Mudhound growled low as they slowly backed up to thunderclan land, ducking and jolting back if retaliation was attempted. Upon reaching the border they'd stop, ignoring any taunting and simply warning "After all this noise more thunderclan cats will be here soon. Im sure you can make excuses for a fight another time. Leave." They continued to back up after making sure he wouldnt follow across, and stood between Redhawk and Hawkbite, un moving as a mountain to guard her steadfastly until the shadowclan cat had parted.

If he would.

"Not far, follow me," Hawkbite would reply quickly, offering a smirk with his side glance. Without any further hesitation, the Commander darted across the border, not really checking to make sure Shadefrost was keeping up. He moved quickly through the undergrowth, keeping his paws light and not lingering in a spot for more than a couple seconds as he tracked the scent he was following.

Finally -- once he was a little ways over the border -- he found the little plant that Lostspark had sent him out here for. He grabbed a mouthful, turning to gesture towards Shadefrost to do the same, his green hues darting around to keep watch as the warrior hopefully listened. He wasn't going to say a word while they were on the ThunderClan side.

Silently, Hawkbite waited for Shadefrost to gather the herbs.

Shadefrost sprinted after the enforcer commander, keeping low to the earthy ground as he padded through the undergrowth of Thunderclan's territory. The tom set to work surveying the surrounding areas for any signs of danger, all five senses taking in information and relaying it to his mind for him to process, as if he were the kitty of Agatha itself. Of course, it took a little time to reach their destination, seeing as how they were forced to proceed at a pace suited for prioritizing stealth, but they made it all the same. A patch of plants that was likely meant for medicinal purposes. Shade let Hawkbite collect his haul first, moving to take roughly the same amount in his jaws. When he'd finished, he looked at his clanmate with relaxed sapphire blue orbs, waiting to see what his net order would be.

As Shadefrost gathered up the catchweed, Hawkbite kept guard. They were really going to get away with this huh? Lovely. Upon seeing Shadefrost ready to leave, Hawkbite gestured for the tom to follow, moving at the same pace they had before, but without the pausing. Due to the herbs gathered up in mouth, he couldn't scent anything out so now he was simply relying on the stealth.

It wasn't long before they were back at the border and crossing, his tail waving behind him with glee. They'd successfully gathered up herbs Lostspark needed.

"Let's head back to camp, Lostspark will be happy with these," Hawkbite spoke, muffled, through the mouthful of herbs.

Something in Drizzlenight's bones pushed him toward the ShadowClan border that day. He normally didn't stray close to any of the borders on his solo patrols, but with tensions being high there was a nagging feeling that had him going in that direction.

It was a good thing he did, because as he rounded a corner he caught a glimpse of two ShadowClan cats hurrying back across the border- and did they have herbs with them? Stars, what the hell!?

The area on ThunderClan's side of the border reeked of ShadowClan scent, so it was clear crimes had been committed. With little regard for his own safety, the warrior sprinted forward, claws unsheathing.

"What the hell are you two doing on ThunderClan land!?"

Call it intuition, or maybe his spite meter going off. Trotting off towards Herondive Hollow, the stench of frogs overtaking his nostrils. A welcome scent, a reason to rip and tear. "Well. You heard him. What in Gods name do you believe you're doing?" he asked, a hint of a dare dripping from his words.

"And with some of ThunderClan's herbs no doubt as well. My, how low you've fallen. First I thought ShadowClan was pretty shallow, but here you are digging even deeper." a low growl as he stepped closer, now standing beside Drizzlenight.

Their second go around wasn't going as planned. Hawkbite had brought Shadefrost along once more to the ThunderClan side of the border. Snatching up more of their herbs to bring back to Lostspark. Why not steal their herbs instead of dwindling ShadowClan's supply?

He stopped dead in his tracks and whipped around to see a warrior and the not-so-impressive deputy. He hadn't seen the deputy up close before, he was expecting more honestly. Shame. Guess your cross-clan idols can't be all that, huh?

He huffed, dropped the herbs to the ground and offered a mocked kind smile, flashing the fangs he got his name from. Not much of an intimidation move, but more of one to annoy the pair. "Oh, just some scavenging. Dawnstar's orders, y'know. Just following them for the benefits of our clanmates," he replied with little to no hesitation.

The Commander knew where this was going to head, so before anyone could react, his unsheathed claws met the herbs he dropped and smashed them into the soggy ground. His claws shredded them effortlessly and to top it off, Hawkbite didn't break eye contact or remove that stupid grin on his face.

If they couldn't cross the border with these herbs, ThunderClan sure as hell wasn't going to take them back.

[SHADOWCLAN GUARD]

AGATHA KITTY | ACTIVE, BEEED UP (T3) | ACTIVE, MIND READER | ACTIVE, SILVER TONGUE | ACTIVE

It wasn't much of a surprise when the Enforcer Commander had summoned Shadefrost for another herb patrol. Apparently, t'was the moon to work the warrior halfway to the bone for some odd reason, though he hadn't gotten the memo until it was too late. But that didn't matter. If it was anything like last time, the pair of Shadowclan warriors would have two more bundles of herbs to bring back to Larkfire,and Shade would have spent a good portion of the day doing something he didn't like to do. Man this was annoying.

It wasn't until both warriors were right at the edge of the border that the fresh unmistakable scent of Thunderclan came wafting into Shadefrost's nose. The tomgave a low growl of agitation, annoyed that now he not only had to do a herb patrol, but also fight for them. What a shame. And here he thought this would be a- Oh. Shade quickly rounded on the newcomers, a murderous glint in his sapphire blue eyes as he dropped the herbs to the ground. However, before he could pounce the sight of a certain cat made him freeze.

A shiver ran up and down the tomcats spine, his eyes widening in recognition as his claws began to slide in and out of his paws. This had to be a dream. It had to. There was no way that the deputy of Thunderclan was standing in front of Shadefrost, literally just standing there ripe for the killing. AhhhhhhhhhH!!!!!!! Was it his birthday or something? For a second he wondered if it might have been a blessing for the good things he's done, but right off the bat he knew that wasn't the case. Well it didn't matter really, as long as Shadefrost got to enjoy himself, he didn't care how he got this opportunity.

A wide cheshire grin spread from ear to ear, giving the warrior an eerie expression. In that moment, the other Thunderclanner was no longer there, nor was the Enforcer Commander that'd dragged Shade along with him. He didn't even notice when Hawbite had crushed the herbs he was carrying. All he saw was that deputy, that obstacle that was in is way. The thought of it made Shadefrost want to dance with delight, but he refrained himself. That wouldn't have been appropriate in a time like this. "Hey Enforcer," he said with a deceptively calm snarl, not taking his eyes off of his target, "The deputy's mine, if you get in my way I'll take one of your eyes and ears. Then I'll rip you tail from it's base, got it?"

After his words of warning were issued, Shade directed his undivided attention toward the Thunderclan deputy, "So I could really use your help with something mister, you see a little while ago I made it my personal mission to kill all of the high ranking cats in Thunderclan. Unfortunately, I failed when it came to killing that Springpaw of yours. But thankfully I was given another chance to right that wrong."

"So, how would you like me to end it for you? Quick and painless? Long and drawn out? Absolute torture (which is my personal favorite by the way), or would you like to see where the brawl takes us?" As he spoke, the warrior inched closer and closer to the feline adjacent to him. His tail lashing to and fro as he reveled the fight that was about to ensue. The herbs that, only a moment prior, were in the clasp of his jaws were trampled over with indifference. And in a sudden flash Shadefrost was utilizing the strength in his legs to shoot forward, streaking toward his prey in a zigzag motion as he sought to rob him of the advantage to attack first.

Fury made Drizzlenight's blood boil as one of the ShadowClan brutes had the audacity to shred the herbs they'd just stolen, and with glee. Clearly ShadowClan had gotten too big for their pelts these days. No matter; arrogance was easily squashed with the right amount of force.

Drizzlenight had no problem with the other cat demanding a fight with Spiderthroat; he wanted this herb-wrecker all to himself. He sprinted forward; at the last second, he leapt above his opponent and twisted. The warrior simultaneously kicked out with his back legs and lurched forward to sink his teeth into the ShadowClanner's back.

Feisty! Shrewstep was tempted to chuckle at her rage, but he was fairly certain that would get him a clawmark across the nose and would rather pass on that for today. And he didn´t REALLY want this patrol to be a whole thing of spitting and hissing at each other. Relax, I´ll leave you alone. I understand I´m not everyone´s cup of tea. Just most of them. The words rolled off of his tongue like silver, shiny and bright. How could anyone be aggravated by such a sincere yet amusing apology? He had no idea. Regardless of her response, Shrewstep was content to follow along the border with Silentraven and Ibispaw, who'd caught up. At least you´re here now. he replied to her, dipping his head slightly in greeting.

He wasn't sure how much border marking they were supposed to do seeing as Dawnstar had given them free reign to invade, but it probably didn't hurt to give Thunderclan a clear line to stay behind. The whole place smelled of blood, but there appeared to be no trespassers at the moment, nor even Thunderclanners lurking around for them to jump on. The whole area felt......felt like the Windclan border used to. A faint hint of blood, and silence. Like the whole area had been a scene of chaos, the occasional tuft of fur and gouge in the ground, but silent now. Waiting. Scared. Shaking his head to banish his thoughts, Shrewstep returned to marking the border behind Silentraven. Ravenswings Nixey

Silentraven paused to turn to Ibispaw. She smiled. No worries. Just please be on time next time. You’re lucky we had barely left camp. She continued on, the others following again. Silentraven went ahead and showered the border with Shadowclan scent. After they were done, she turned, yawning, to the others. We should stay a while longer. Make sure no mousebrains step over the border. I heard someone from Thunderclan crossed the border and got a serious injury so I don’t see much peace from them. Stealthily, she continued down the border, checking for unknown scents.

long-furred, oriental-shaped, gray-and-orange calico molly with blue eyes; torn right ear
purrks: herbal knowledge - tier 2 | the collector | mind reader | skip the steps[all perm. active; sts for battle training]

Just as Springpaw suspected, the bi-colored molly was quick on her paws. The calico herself often wasn’t as easily oriented as the older warrior was when it came to patrols. Even if she wasn’t as pleased, she’d still wind herself up and get them done if needed if she was called to go onto one, such as this one that she called herself. Blinking against the chilly winter breeze, she shook off the morning fog that settled itself into her naturally thick fur coat, glancing towards the overly optimistic Skunkstripe. “Well… at least… you are pleased… about going… on patrols… more than… I am… It’s… unreasonably… chilly out… today,” Springpaw mused with a singular flick of an ear, a purr echoing throughout her chest as it rumbled. It was better for them to get going than just stand around and do nothing, right? Those herbs weren’t going to be getting themselves. “Well… we may… as well… head out… to go… gather the herbs… hopefully… they won’t… be too difficult… to find…” Without anything else to say concerning the situation, the molly began to trek her way through the entrance of the camp, trekking into the territory of her clan.

Arriving at the patrol place didn’t take as long as Springpaw was expecting for it to be, as the stroll only took at least a few minutes. The unsuppressed chill had itself claimed onto her naturally small body. Her paws were caked with the snow-white mass that she stepped in. The snow beneath her paws sounded like a stream of beads that a young child decided to wander all over. Childlike wonder overtaken, she almost felt the desire to scoop up some by a paw to give it a glimpse but held to no avail. Her attention was held towards the white blanket that decorated the forest floor, making her stand there with some apprehension with wonder if her patrolmate would like to accompany her to take in the winter beauty. Even with it being as rough as it was, it was still a wonder to look at it and take in its glorious beauty. “Winter… truly is… pretty… even if… it’s not… the best time… of the… year.” Springpaw purred, watching the frost that slipped past her lips evaporate out of thin air.

Right, now wasn’t the time to be studying the cold, she needed to focus on trying to get this patrol done and over with. With a quiet hum expelling past her throat, she turned her focus back towards Skunkstripe, hoping that the bi-colored molly paid close attention. “Now… since we... are here… we should… be careful… of ShadowClan… drawing… towards us… I will… go look… for coltfoot… and you… can look… for catmint… it’s… relatively a… sweet-smelling… herb… that makes… you want… to eat it… but try… not to… since too much… can cause… a stomachache,” Springpaw explained, gesturing a paw briefly toward a notable patch of grass close to the border. She wouldn’t want to risk any one of them getting clawed by a group of ShadowClan warriors looking for nothing but trouble. Without much thought, the young calico began to search around the border for any coltsfoot to collect back to the clan, stumbling along a small bundle of the herb as she began to carefully collect a small bit of it, being sure to leave the rest of it there to properly grow and replenish.

-------------------------


"Chilly? Really? Hadn't noticed." She teased, but she followed after Springpaw, purring as she did. The beauty of winter really was everywhere, but Skunkstrike wasn't looking around entirely for the view. She was still a warrior after all, and with leafbare still in full icy grip of the forest, predators would be more daring than ever for a meal. Hawks, badgers, even foxes.

Ugh, foxes. Just thinking of the russet furred freaks made the scars on her face itch. Well, good thing they sucked at hiding during leafbare too! Skunkstrike would keep a sharp eye out for threats as she padded after Springpaw. Though the apprentice spoke so quietly and slowly, she hadn't picked up much else but the last bit of Springpaw's comment about the time of year. "Er..yeah! Sorry, I totally don't mean to be weird or rude, but, is there a reason you talk with so many... pauses?" The large black and white molly glanced down at Springpaw when she asked, a look of genuine curiosity in her blue gaze. "You don't have to answer, of course. It's just...a strange way of talking." Skunkstrike did manage to look a little embarrassed by her intrusive inquiry, but as they reached the hollow, she paused to let Springpaw explain what they were doing.

The mention of ShadowClan simply made her snort and roll her eyes. "I'll send every one of em home with their tail 'tween their legs, Springpaw. Ain't no stinky swamp cat alive that can make me worry, so don't you worry!" She beamed at Springpaw, though she went quiet again. So she was on catmint duty. Great! Sweet smelling, probably too sweet if Springpaw thought that the urge to eat it was strong. "Alrighty! I can do that!" She called after Springpaw, but the medicine cat had already wandered away. Oh, well, okay!

She bounded off rather noisily. If there were ShadowClan punks around, letting a big presence like herself be known wasn't too bad an idea. Now, sweet scenting leaves, that was what she was tracking down, and to her surprise, she found one! A scent so delectable, so sweet and mouthwatering, so-

Skunkstrike hadn't realized her mouth was wrapping around the leaves until she felt the fibrous leaves touch her tongue, and she stiffened. Luckily she hadn't eaten any, but oh boy was that close! She didn't like catmint. It made her head fuzzy and weird. Shaking her pelt out, the nerves too that were rattled, Skunkstrike began using her claws to cut the stalks, not daring to put her mouth anywhere near the tasty smelling leaves. When she had gathered a small bundle, she looked around before finding a nice long wide leaf and setting the catmint onto it. Rolling it up, she took the bundle in her jaws carefully, and padded back to meet Springpaw.

Shrewstep was of the opinion that they´d hung around long enough. No Thunderclan cats had shown up with ill intentions, and he didn´t particularly want to be so late that Vulturefang got annoyed and told Dawnstar that they were slacking. He hadn't given a bad account of himself thus far, and he wanted to keep it that way. The tom was just starting to have fun with a bit of flirting and chatting around (he had missed the availability of conversation partners while alone in the Outskirts) and wanted to keep doing so. He voiced this opinion to Silentraven rather fearlessly, given her lack of partiality to him. Do you think we should head back? he inquired. It´s been a good while, and we don´t want Vulturefang on our case, now do we? Hopefully he would be persuasive enough that she agreed to turn around and they could stop freezing their tails off.
