Surprise!
Darkfall - @Dark | Mistlewhisker - @Mica | Petalrot - @Neptune. | Moonmeadow - @Dolomedes Dawnstar was tired and sore, between going on one patrol, training, and then throwing herself into another patrol, she went to nap in her den. However, after rolling around restlessly in her nest for several long minutes and with no sign of sleeping coming to her, the leader gave up. Physically, her body could do with some rest. The mink scratches and bites along her body were healing at a steady rate. Yet she could still feel them throbbing with mild discomfort, reminding her that another patrol had to go out. Seeing as her mind refused to let her sleep, she might as well work herself into exhaustion instead. So with a mighty shake of her pelt, Dawnstar exited her den with a yowl. "Mistlewhisker, Petalrot, Moonmeadow, Darkfall. With me, we're going to clear the minks out of our territory." The giant snarled without a care of what anyone was doing. She gave an order it was just best to follow it. Cimbing up the slope that led out of the ravine, Dawnstar silently made her way into the territory. "I don't know how many if any of you have fought a mink before, but some reminders." Dawnstar meowed without looking over at any cat. She hadn't had much combat against minks herself, but she learned fast. "Minks are bigger than rabbits but smaller than average cats. They more aggressive than badgers, fast as a WindClanner, and can be as cunning as a fox. Their teeth are sharper than owl talons. Their dark pelts make them blend in with our territory far better than I would like." Dawnstar pausing, taking a second to pull her front paw out of a extra muddy patch of earth. "They like to bite and latch on, like leeches. Getting them off can be painful if you're not careful. Mind your necks, they seem to enjoy going for the throat. Stay together, get too far apart and they might overwhelm you. Fall, and you'll be dead before you can blink." Dawnstar faintly wondered if she should have brought a bigger patrol now that she was going over all the problems one faced fighting minks. The pack of minks she had seen last hadn't been that large, just to large for her and an inexperined apprentice to take care off. She hadn't left this alone for that long, it should be fine. The mighty feline shoved aside her concerns with a soft growl. Nose twitching, she stifled her gag reflex as a foul oder wafted towards her, faintly mixed with the heathery tang of WindClan. The WindClan scent was normal, the border was nearby, but that stink... It was revolting. Trying not to breath too deeply, she veered slightly off course and led the patrol behind a dense wall of ferns, the leader let out an outrageous hiss as soon as her eyes located the pile of rotting prey, dead frogs, decaying birds, half eaten mice. "What the hell is this?" The Shadow Queen was livid. No one wastes prey in ShadowClan. Before she could go on her little rage rant, her tattered ears swerved to the right, thick muscles tensing as a thunderous warning snarl bounced around the small clearing. It did little to deter the chitter cries from a threat she had yet to see. Her amber eye swept the area, until she located a large hole near the roots of a pine tree. She counted one, two heartbeats before the minks poured out of the hole in an unending stream. |

Petalrot and three others were called to deal with the minks and that was... scary. Bug had seen the damage the minks had done to bug's leader - in fact, the evidence of the attack still decorated her pelt, and Petalrot privately thinks she might be just a little crazy to go after them again so soon. Nevertheless, bug answers the summons and follows after her. |

https://warriorcatsonline.com/forums...ictureid=41696 | Dapplebreeze | Agatha Kitty - Active | Silver Tongue - Active | Beefed Up [Tier 1] - Inactive Dapplebreeze wasn't certain what she had expected from their approach of the swampy border. Nothing good, in truth. Despite their alliance, the spotted molly's thoughts on the dark clan were as far from the light as they. So much strife had come from them for so long... the death of her own son had cemented an eternal resentment of the clan as a whole. Gratefully for the former queen, age had taught her that diplomacy was most important in situations like these. It wasn't about what she wanted... about how she wished to see the blood of these vermin run free. It was about what was good for the clan, and as of right now, Twilightstar was right. They could use the violent shadow dwellers in handling their predicament. And yet the sounds she heard here now had her on edge. It was as if an explosion of chaos had somehow ruptured through the bog and echoed all the way to the open moors. Mismatched ears erect, eyes momentarily wide in surprise, she only turned her attention from the cacophonous brawl - for the sounds could truly be nothing less - at the sound of Leechscar's voice, concern forcing a twitch of her whiskers. The leader's son was of course correct. Twilightstar's orders had been explicit. They were to not cross the border. And frankly, the death of any cats across would be no loss to anyone as far as she was concerned... and yet this was an unforeseen situation they were now in... one that discomforted her as it argued against her natural instinct to obey the leader's command. "The correct thing would be to follow command, yes. Twilightstar's instructions are clear. However... I do not know if it would bode to our best interests to allow our... allies," Dapplebreeze stated, the word uttered delicately, "to handle whatever ill befalls them without lifting a claw. It could later on be argued that they have no reason to come to our aid when we refused to do as much for them. Of course... this is ShadowClan. We might very well be asking to be attacked for stepping foot in their marshes, no matter how well intentioned the act might be." Falling silent, the senior warrior turned a steady look upon the younger, larger feline, blue hues alert. She would not take control of the situation here. It was not her patrol, and she trusted Leechscar's judgement on the situation. Twilightstar had chosen him for a reason, after all, and much like herself, she was certain the leader saw the value in the warrior beyond the familial bond they shared. What she could do, however, was provide an assessment of the situation that gave both the pros and cons to each action. The understanding that regardless of a border cross or not, the alliance could suffer from their meddling or lack thereof. Regardless the choice, she would make sure to follow command. @Undertaker [Leechscar] | @Moonraven [Batglare] | @taillow [Bravebird] |

Bravebird - WindClan Warrior She/her | 45 moons | Beefed Up T3, One with the Warren Always on high alert when out on the territory, Bravebird had her ears perked and eyes alert - even more so than normal. She didn't fancy another run in with those territorial furry rats, a phantom ache drifting in the spots of her recent injuries before fading away. She was grateful to not have lost sight in her eye, and though she prided herself on her skill set as a formidable fighter, those minks were quick and as angry as a fox in a fit. Thankfully the Sky Glade didn't sprout any of them up, and soon enough the patrol was headed towards the ShadowClan border. |

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...dcf2d26a25e07& Petalrot ~<>~ 29 moons || bug/bug’s || ShadowClan Warrior slim tortoiseshell w/ white tuxedo markings; green eyes Tiny teeth sink into bug's front leg as white mitted paws slam down on the hissing and snarling creature. With a hiss of bug's own, Petalrot drops bug's head, teeth sinking into brown fur and yanking the vermin free... taking a small chunk of bug's leg with it. Efficiently, bug gives the mink in bug's maw a good shake, disorienting it, and flings it into the nearest pine, where it slams its head. Bug doesn't check if it stays down - too busy concentrating on staying where the rest of the patrol is and trying not to get horribly separated. |
Re: Surprise!
Batglare trailed further at the back of the patrol. If he was not leading, he was always more comfortable taking the rear. For once, Batglare wasn't looking forward to fighting. If they were lucky, they could chat and leave with no claws being drawn. It wasn't that long ago he had visited Lightingstorm. He truly didn't feel like visiting her again so soon. Alas, the yowls and shouts on the other side of the border had the older warrior giving up any hopes of not being involved in a fight. His stoic gaze sought out Leechscar's as the tom looked as startled and troubled as the rest of them. Dapplebreeze offered the younger patrol leader some sage advice, and Bravebird a light quip that Batglare hoped Leechscar didn't take seriously. "Following Twilightstar's orders should be the priority, however, in this situation, I'd think she'd be willing to be flexible. Do as you please, we'll follow you." It was a tough situation to be in, but it was Leechscar's choice. @Undertaker [Leechscar] | @Alchemist Kitsune [Dapplebreeze] | @taillow [Bravebird] |
