He hadn't entered this battle with the intention of getting dragged into a drawn out fight yet here he was, for the second time battling against Thunderclan and for the second time because his clanmates couldn't simply accept the help. And now he was stuck in the position of watching the injured she-cat atop their opponent and moving once more in to mediate any more damage from falling her way lest she make somebody else carry her back to camp. As soon as Gentlebloom's claws met the Thunderclanner's back, Elmshadow dove in low. He kept the bulk of his broad body centered so the warrior would have to do a lot more than simply step to avoid his outstretched paws, a feat that'd be improbable, nigh on impossible, with the burden on his back. He aimed to ram his shoulder into the other tom's chest. If that connected as he hoped, he'd attempt to wrap his paws around the Thunderclanner's flanks with unsheathed claws and wrestle him backwards or to the ground.
Her claws snagged and the adrenaline reignited though her. Oh now for just a taste! The smile on her face widened. The blows had not been as substantial as she would have liked, the warrior having moved back just enough apparently, but the first blows had been landed and the fight was like a fire in her belly. As the Thunderclanner came back down, his large paw aimed for her chest. To avoid it would be to lose her position but would the blow drive her breath from her and hinder her for the rest of the battle? She didn't have time to consider the options so she opted for her default and let the blow drive into her chest as she reached up with claws to try to rake them down the leg protruding from her chest as he moved forward, and then the bulk was gone from over her. She flipped around, popping back to her paws. Her chest was sore, tight, and the breathes weren't coming in easily but her smile only grew and her blue eyes found the other warrior turning to just watch her. She giggled haltingly, "How...very nice...to give me a second...to catch my breath." She straightened her body, lifting her head as the tightness in her chest eased incrementally. Her tail swished easily behind her and her head cocked, "But I wonder if your pretty little tyrant would approve," she giggled, her back end dropping to sit. "If you're really trying to win this you need to be quicker, don't hesitate. You won't get many opportunities to hit me while I'm down, so when you've got one, you should take it." Her smile brightened and she sighed. It'd been a while since she'd felt like she was underestimated. It was normal some seasons ago, being her size wasn't much to look at. But she was the commander of the enforcers, Dawnstar's elite. Her prowess apparently preceded her these days, it was rather disappointing.
From her position sitting on the moist floor near the owed creek, Cougarivy sprang forward immediately, stopping in front of the larger tom and aiming a strike across the warrior's face. Whether that landed or not, she faded back. Assuming the strike either hit or caused the warrior to dodge, she was confident she'd be outside of any immediate retaliation zone. So she pounced forward again, twitched her foreleg as though to go for another strike, but instead listed to that side and pounced at her opponent's side, aiming to wrap her forelegs around the bulk of the Thunderclanner's body.

With Shadowclans attack and then Bumblestars order, Sparkleap takes little time before launching themself into battle. The lean tom was well built and had a nice leap, and he aimed to land on the back of some Shadowclan cat. They would fight for his clan no matter the cost.
Brambleberry wasn't much of a fighter but this was an attack on them, not an attack they started, so he was down for the fight. Looking around, the massive tom tried to find a suitable opponent for him to fight.
(Both THC, both open to a SHC warrior to fight)
OspreySplash runs in, leaping at the first cat she saw. Being a bit smaller, this didnt work well and a thunderclan cat ended up on her back (SparkLeap)
LeapMoon looks around, eyes narrowing as she saw an unsure tom. She ran over to him, trying to sneak attack (BrambleBerry)
Sharppaw smirked, the blood staining her teeth flashing red. She had already taken two lives, she was ready to play with her food. Slice this one up, and scar them so they always remember you. THEY WILL REGRET THE DAY THEY OPPOSED YOU " Yes, I will do that" She claimed aloud as she menacingly usheathed her claws, also stained a crimson red "I will make you remember me. Oh, the tales they will tell of my brutality!" She said tail curling with excitement before she leaped at the face of the cat.
(The bold is her thoughts btw)

*Cherrypaw screamed and tried to run, too scared to fight*
(When he does attack her, she will attack back out of self defense)
Webdusk noticed her lunge, stepping to the side and attempting to use her momentum to hit her from the side. He raised her paw and struck towards Larkfire's leg, attempting to strike her off balance if not make it painful to walk.
Larkfire
She/Her | Shadow Fiend & Beefed Up (T1) Purrk
Amber hues flashing as Webdusk avoided her blow, Larkfire instantly made to dodge as he retaliated, but her reflexes were still slightly slow and when she rolled out of their range, Larkfire did take a brief blow to the side of her flank. Pinpricks of blood dripped out of the wound, but Larkfire paid the minute scratch no mind. She whirled back to Webdusk, attempting to bite down on his tail and tug or aim her claws for her hindleg, hopefully either of these to throw off the other feline's balance.

[ Gotcha, thanks! (: ]
Webdusk aimed another strike at Larkfire, right before his tail was pulled away from her, his strike going wide. He kicked a hindpaw towards Larkfire's face, hoping to hit her again.

Ducking to the right as Webdusk's hindleg whooshed past her face, missing by inches, Larkfire hissed softly with discontent and aimed to catch the limb in question with either her snapping fangs or with her claws, to render Webdusk off balance and possibly fall to the ground, or at the very least just stagger enough for her to rake her claws across their flank.
DawnShred and HeronSnarl were definitely looking for blood while FallowReed hung back a big.
Starrypaw
Post Count: 77/100 One With The Warren & Kitty Softpaws Purrk Active
Emerald green hues bright with excitement, Starrypaw landed quite dramatically in front of Fallowreed, grinning up at the ThunderClanner. "Hallo!" She exclaimed cheerily. "I reckon this is the part where I think of all my training and hit you?" She asked, eyes wide.
That was what they were doing, right? Canting her head to the side, Starrypaw hopped back and forth a moment longer before shrugging and taking a swing for it, one slender paw aiming for Fallowreed's head. "Sorry, mister, but I think this is what I'm supposed to do."
Flameflicker narrowed his eyes once he spotted the aprentice's slow readiness of fighting. He noticed the slight crouch, the tail movement. But he acted as if he didn't. "Oh, no, you're too mighty to cheat. I believe in you. Although, if I was a feral murderer, I don't know why you're still talking to me, or that my words would mean anything. And trust me, I'm the decentest of my entire clan," he said, tensing his muscles in a way that it was impossible for Yellowpaw to see.
IGNORE - bear is just marking off tallies
Yellowpaw Shadowclan
Silver Tongue: ACTIVE | Shadow Fiend: ACTIVE
Yellowpaw smirked. He didn't fight much, but he knew a small trick he used with an anonymous cat. Yellowpaw aimed a blow at the Thunderclanner's muzzle, purposefully missing. Then he backed into a the cloud of cats, blood, and claws. Twisting and turning, dodging and ducking, he made his way to the back of the cat, leaping at there back, claws outstretched. "Squirrel! Haha!" He laughed agitatingly.

Sharppaw smirked, her prey was scared! She leaped at her prey clamping onto their back leg, claws scratching her claws feverishly across her prey's flank.
