Ohhhkay, no, Buckstar definitely saw the two little sneaks trying to weasel their way out of camp. They're weren't that stealthy, with their tiny baby paws - he easily caught sight of them, even from all the way across the clearing. They couldn't have gotten far on their stubby little legs. He rose to his paws to hurry after them, passed through the camp's entrance, walked a couple more steps and pushed past a clump of bushes -
- and stopped dead in his tracks at the sight that greeted him.
He watched - frozen, wide-eyed, horror-stricken - as a huge, hulking beast of a coyote burst from the undergrowth in an explosion of leaves and snow and hurtled, jaws gaping, saliva flying from its teeth, toward the two kits.
With a howl of rage, Buckstar leaped over the kids to meet the beast in the air. He delivered a powerful smack to the side of its face, ripping five long, scarlet lines into its cheek. It tumbled to the side and caught itself with a snarl, snapped its teeth at him as if it was prepared to attack again.
"Stay BACK!" Buckstar shouted. A low growl rumbled in its throat, a sound that send a blood-curdling shiver up Buckstar's spine. And then it turned and vanished back into the underbrush. Buckstar's chest had begun to hurt, and he let out a breath he hadn't even realized he was holding.
He rounded on the pair, eyes ablaze with piercing terror. "What the hell were you two thinking?! You could have gotten yourselves killed! If I hadn't seen you- if no one had seen you- I don't know what I would have done-" He cut himself off with a frightened gasp of breath and jabbed a forepaw in the direction of camp. "Home. Now. I want to speak with the both of you somewhere safe."

Re: ThunderClan Territory
Rapidkit hadn't noticed Buckstar. She was too focused on the bird she was going to catch. Even though it was in a tree, she'd find some way to catch the flying critter. She knew big cats caught them all the time! So why couldn't she? Her tiny legs prepared to launch her in the air to gracefully capture the bird. At least, that's how she envisioned herself doing it. But a cat jumping out over her suddenly interrupted that.
The young kit turned to see a huge... thing fighting an angry Clan leader. The thing was sure ugly. And really, really scary. She didn't know where it came from, but it was there! She screamed as Buckstar attacked the thing, and ran behind the big cat. But she couldn't leave Mosskit, or the leader, for that matter. In fact, she wanted to help him beat up the ugly monster. But he yelled to stay back, and for once, she listened.
The growl that came from the creature probably scared her the most. She hadn't ever heard something like that! It was deep and sounded sort of like when a cat yowled, but rougher and scarier. She sighed with relief when the thing decided to run away. Then she yelled, "AND STAY AWAYYYYYY!" That's what warriors said, right? It didn't matter.
And now she was scared of Buckstar. He'd never looked like that before, terrified and out of breath. She didn't like it. She listened to him get mad at her and Mosskit, then said, "Okay!" in a loud, high-pitched voice and started in the direction Buckstar's paw pointed at. @MossFlower123 @Slushie

"... We can keep going some other time," he said, picking up the blackbird. "Let's go get the rest and head back."

Silverclaw nodded. "Ok." Silverclaw meowed. She started purring but caught herself. She didn't know if Spidercrawl wanted to be more than friends. She didn't even know if he wanted to be friends!

Spidercrawl smiled, letting out a low, rumbling purr. "Then let's go. Don't want the Clan to be worried, right?"
Spidercrawl followed her, looking around for anything strange.

Silverclaw reached the spot and she started digging up the mouse. She found it and she picked it up. “Let’s go where you buried the squirrel.” Silverclaw meowed.
