Make sure to congratulate Versailles on their promotion from c-mod in training to fully fledged chat moderator! They've worked very hard, and we can't wait to see where they go from here!
Berryshine raced in, making sure Raccoonsun and Fawnpaw were behind her. They were carrying several of the precious herbs she'd need for this debacle, after all. Breathing fast, the medicine cat nearly froze when she got near the border. The scents of ThunderClan and RiverClan mingled together, mixing disorientingly with the stench of blood and otters in the air. She'd never seen one of the creatures up close, and her eyes widened; they were much larger, quicker, and deadlier than she'd expected.
"Stars above..." she whispered in horror to herself.
Then again, knowing what'd happened to Jayfrost and Mudsmoke... it should've been expected. Her claws curled anxiously into the dirt, desperately searching the throng of screeching, fighting cats. ThunderClan's scent still burned her nose and made her eyes sting, especially with the associations buried deep in her mind — but she pushed it aside. For now, it seemed, they were allies... united against a common threat.
What would you think about all this, Cobs? Seeing us helping ThunderClan like this?
Berryshine had no more time to dwell on that. She ran to a nearby tree that provided a bit of shelter from the wind and sun, carefully laying down her stuffed dock leaf. The herbs and supplies laid out in front of her, she glanced anxiously between that and the battlefield, growing increasingly bloodier. Her heart raced; she hadn't been this close to combat since the 3v1. Unpleasant memories would have to wait, however. For now, she was incredibly relieved to spy Stagheart's light brown pelt amongst the crowd, to see him active and fighting. All of her Clanmates seemed okay... so far.
"B-Bring your wounded to me!" The young medicine cat called out shakily. The offer would go to ThunderClan, too... despite their prior tensions, Berryshine was never one to turn down an injured cat, especially in this moment of tentative alliance. She was already scraping some extra moss off of a nearby tree, knowing she'd need a lot of it; thankfully, being by the water ensured that she'd have plenty around her.

⤷ oh goody! the fish was actually doin' something for once. mumbleflight flashed a cheeky grin at- stagheart, huh, nice name- from his spot on the floor before jumping back up, though not without a wince of pain. his nose hurt, yikes!! he squinted his eyes against the sun as stagheart managed to deliver a couple good injuries to the slippery thing. ' nice one. round your back, buddy, just be careful. ' he called to his battling partner, ears flattening as the otter got a good bite into stagheart's leg and blood sprayed- all over him, ew. mumble flicked his tongue out to clear some of it off his face and then nodded, throwing himself fowards.
[ rolled a 19 & a 20!! ] mumbleflight made his best approximation of the otter's chitter before closing up any exit the otter may have had and darting to stand at stagheart's side. adrenaline positively flowed through his veins and the younger warrior lunged to attack, his claws hooking into the otter's slippery fur. by some saving grace, he managed to hold on, wrapping his forearms around the body of the stupid thing and digging his claws deep into its neck. blood got all over mumbleflight again, stars damnit, he HATED the smell and the taste of blood. it reminded him, distantly, of the outsider clan that had slaughtered his fam- nope, stop that, not the time, mumble.
[ oh no!! a 6 was rolled!! however im gonna move that six over to the next post so we can get some more battling in before mumble conks out ]

Seabreeze was correct in his assumption he wouldn't stay on the creature for very long, as after his distraction allowed for Stagheart and the Squirrel to get a hit in, the otter for some reason decided the new threat was more important than the one near its vitals- annoyingly stupid creatures, annoying strong creatures-. Not too mention that the Squirrel had already taken a head wound- hopefully they would be able to fight till the otter went down- you would think that the squirrels would know to protect the head given they fall out of trees for a living.
[ D20: 2 + 2 ( Experience ) ] Fail ]
Seabreeze tumbled off the otter, though one of his forepaws was caught in the jaws of the creature before he managed to roll completely away- the warrior growled, lashing out with the rest of his claws at the creature's face now that his limb was acting as a barrier between those teeth and Seabreeze's face.
[ D20: 20 + 2 ( Experience ) ] Major Success ]
His claws cut right across its face, the otter rearing back with a shrill screaming noise, but whipping its head still holding onto Seabreeze before tossing him like he weighed no more than a pine cone right over the squirrel's head, who was still at the otter's front. ...Well not like he could feel that paw to begin with, and if he was fighting something with thought maybe he would've sneered the fact. Instead Seabreeze readied himself to dash in once more calling out to Stagheart and the Squirrel, "Ay, I'm going for its flank-" Or at least, try to. Let's see just how successful he would be.

ﾟ。 her paws brought her far into an unknown territory, It smelled of pines and fresh water, eyes scanning the sidelines of the river to find some herbs...she wasn't sure what they would do but she wanted to collect some if her and her family would have territory of their own. her ears perked at the sound of yowling and she padded up to where it was coming from, then she stopped, otters...she knew they were violent but this...? this was horrifying. should she leave? should she help? she didn't know. her focus was not on the stray otter behind her about to seize her throat.

@Ria Zhang (so you guys know she's alive, she's looking for herbs)
open to any of the other cats to stop her/help her.
Except, was it no otter coming up on the unsuspecting cat. It was Irisdream. Claws unsheathed, primed to strike if necessary. She had followed behind Berryshine to ensure the medic and her envoy reached their destination with no issues, and now she was glad she had. For she caught herself a little intruder. The queen's ears flattened, fur bristled, as an uncharacteristic growl rumbled in her chest. "Intruder!" She hissed, lashing out at one of the cat's hindlegs in a warning. It would not make contact with flesh, but it would hopefully send a message to this stray.
"Leave! Now!" Besides being an intruder, was this cat dense?? Why in the name of StarClan would they follow a scent that led to this much blood?! She wasted no pleasantries on this task, it wasn't worth it. Irisdream immediately moved in front of the loner, keeping them from progressing any further into the territory. Barring them. The only option she was giving this cat was to flee.
Hi! The otters is a closed event, and your cat is trespassing on clan territory. If they don't leave in their next post, Irisdream will attack.

Acornfall had given her an opening on the otter.
So, of course, Caveclaw went for it.
[Roll=13]
And it wasn't her best, but she managed to jump on sink her teeth into it's neck, towards the front, and rip off any flesh she could.
It wasn't enough to kill, but there had been some damage.
But afterwards, the otter screeched, going to try to latch onto her with teeth.
She needed to move.
[Roll=1]
She didn't.
Caveclaw moved much too slow.
It bit onto her leg, the already bad one, and started jerking around and tearing at it.
It hurt like absolute hell as it continued this.
She's unsure how damaged it is.
Caveclaw tried to claw at it's eyes to get it to let go.
Well, back they were, helping Berryshine carry herbs this time.
Raccoonsun didn't directly look at the scene.
She would prefer not to.
Anyway, holding the marigold she had been given, she glanced at the medicine cat, a little unsure what to do with it, but she was sure it was safe to keep it in her maw.

Oh. Crap. Acornfall yowled angrily when his partner was being tossed around like prey. Clawing, digging his claws into the otter both to cause as much damage as possible but also for stability, he got himself into a position where we could claw at its eyes. Finally, the damned beast let out a shriek as it tossed Caveclaw, hard. Mostly out of fear, he didn’t look. He didn’t want to know what condition that leg was in right now. As far as Acornfall was concerned, even though they were from different clans with their own histories and issues, they were partners in this battle. Caveclaw was entrusting him with her life and vice versa. If they were grievously injured…that would partially be on him. And knowing whatever injury she sustained right now would just…distract him.
Letting out a screech of his own, he tried to dig his claws into the beast’s eyes. And he felt warm blood pool around his claw as he successfully damaged one of them…but it was not without consequence. Enraged, the otter found the flexibility to reach around and grab him, tearing him from its shoulders and tossing him to the ground with a loud thud. But that wasn’t was had him dizzy. As it tore him off, the otter took its vengeance. An eye for an eye. The otter’s claws tore through his right eye, taking most of his ear as well. He let out a yowl - mixed with rage and pain. Keeping his right eyelid closed, hoping the bleeding would stop soon but knowing this wound still take a while for that, and when it did he still wouldn’t have his eye back.
“Caveclaw! You good?” He called, growling as the creature chittered at him. Seemingly laughing. But still…it seemed more hesitant. Like it was rethinking this whole thing. But that wasn’t enough. Acornfall snarled as he launched at the beast again, aiming for the wound Caveclaw opened on its throat. With one claw batting at the blood leaking from its eye, it swung another claw wildly to try and strike him, but missing. Acornfall let out a roar as he slashed at the wound Caveclaw left, making it worse but still not able to tear through it completely. But at least now it was bleeding. He leapt back to dodge another tail blow, snarling in frustration. “Damned thing has thick skin!”
He couldn’t help a huff of a chuckle, nothing like some Acornfall style humor to try and lighten the mood! Even if that mood was a battle for their lives. For their clans. For their families. Thinking about his kits back home…made his blood boil with determination. He was not going to back down from this fight, not until this beast was laying dead at his claws.

ENOUGH with that SICKENING chattering! he watched as the fishcat flipped the whole damn otter over onto its back what the hell??? well, he wasnt about to waste this opportunity, as he neared the stomach of the creature, it twacked him with its tail, that would leave a massive bruise later, he managed to grip onto its underside with his maw, twisting out a chunk of flesh before being kicked away by the otters rear legs, tumbling towards the treeline and leaving him winded, with a large gash across his chest. "bloody unflashy river rat!" he rasped out.
he needed to get back, the riverclan cat wouldnt be able to really hold it off on her own, would she?

ﾟ。 she jumped back, fur rising in fear "i-im terribly sorry-" she looked rather startled unsure of what to do "i- I was looking for herbs." she lowered her body as she backed up, she couldn't fight, she had to return with herbs for her family. she turned tail deciding that maybe she should look elsewhere. so her non-clan idled brain and out of fear, ran over the border away from small pines and...unfortunately into Thunderclans territory.
