Oh, what was this? Another Clan meeting? Grimhound had little interest in such things, but nonetheless slunk over from the shadow he'd been sitting under. Amber eyes flashed in the moonlight as his scars were highlighted, his movements slender and fluid. Huge paws thudded against the clearing as he took up a spot in the back, taking a seat and looking up at Dawnstar with a mild smirk on his face. What did the all powerful leader have to say now?

What now? Scorchstrike thought to herself as she found a seat.

Silentpaw bounced to take her seat near the back.

Dark amber eyes trailed after Dawnstar as she stormed across the clearing and over to the Shadowledge, before Finchwhisker made his way over as well. She was outraged, clearly. About what, he didn't have a clue, but it was obviously something significant and most definitely nothing good, given how quickly she'd just charged into camp and called up a meeting. Could it possible have something to do with the rabbits? Or was it something worse? With a vague expression of concern plastered on his face, the tabby took a seat near the base of the Shadowledge, awaiting his leader's words.

Maplepaw stumbled tiredly towards the Shadowledge, her eyes hazed with sleep as she looked around the growing crowd of her clanmates. She wondered what it could be, this time.

[open!]

wolfwhisper let out a soft sigh, rising to his paws as dawnstar's angry yowl ranged across camp. he could not miss this meeting unless he wanted to lose a ear or two! he made his way to the growing crowd, taking a seat. his tail wrapping around his paws in a protective manner.

Tumblekit
__________

Tumble wasn't really sure what was going on - Dawnstar seemed awful upset - and didn't really know if he was supposed to join in but everyone seemed to be heading in that direction and so he toddled along with him, doing his best to keep out from under paw and not get stepped on.

Poisonaw padded up to the shadowledge.

(Idk if i call him Venom not or later)

Tigerlily growled as he slunk to the shadowledge.

Brackenpaw looked up at Dawnstar. Ack- if Dawnstar was angry... someone will be losing her ears today. Nobody too sit next to. She thought ruefully. I would have more friends if I was not always training. Haha.

**BristleFrost** · #**1009** April 19th, 2021, 02:19 PM

Shadowkit pushed his way out of the nursery and padded to the shadowledge. He sees that Dawnstar is mad, and sits by himself.

"Can anyone explain to me why I am the only one who can properly patrol the territory?" Dawnstar spat off the question as soon as her clan was gathered. Her amber eyes burned a lethal challenge to anyone who dared speak up or met her gaze. She was seriously not in a 'playful' mood and was two claw taps away from spilling someone's blood just to make herself feel better.

"You ingrates, why are is there a pack of dogs hunting in my territory!? Not only are they hunting, but they're also giving our prey to freaking twolegs. This is utterly disgraceful!" Dawnstar could tolerate a lot of stuff, but dogs hunting in her territory! That was ludicrous! Nope, that was not happening. Why the heck was she the only one who noticed this? Were her cats deaf and blind? Seriously, it was like she was the only one who could do anything around her. Ugh!

"I'm going to say this once, and you lot better be grateful I'm choosing against the more violent outcome." This was a big deal for the explosive she-cat, she really wanted to kill something, clanmate or otherwise. "I want you to figure which of you won't die immediately. We're going dog hunting as soon as I'm finished with this meeting." Having them volunteer themselves would make it easier for Dawnstar to see who was actually worth being called a member of ShadowClan, granted they come back alive, and who the kittypets and bums were.

"If I do not have enough of you, you'll force my paw and I'll get to decide for you. If you die, don't expect to be mourned, clearly, your death will be a sign of your incompetence and worthlessness to ShadowClan." Very few deaths were ever meaningful, and Dawnstar would acknowledge the one that was but getting ripped apart by dogs was nothing meaningful. It just meant that they were trash and no longer fit to be a part of ShadowClan. "Apprentices who manage to show some adequate skill may be in line for a warrior ceremony if I decide to use this as an assessment." She was willing to forgo her usual brawls, all she wanted to test some of the half-pints, what better way than a fight with some dogs.

"Shrikepaw and Frogpaw, come here." Her temper simmered as she recalled that she did have two warriors to add to her ranks. It was good news, what better to see if they were worth their spit other than some fighting some mutts. She might be entertained after all.
