storm law followed the group into camp, his eyes gazing at gentle does command and with that a simple nod was shown. The tom looked around for kits who are outside.
Two seconds with Cracklepaw and she already had the temptation to bite him. Angling her head toward the apprentice, Bumblestar muttered firmly, "You will behave while you're over there, 'n if I hear even a word to suggest otherwise, you 'n I are gonna have a real long talk." Being a general nuisance was one thing—disrespecting the dead was another entirely.
Back to Dovefluff. Her stomach twisted in disgust. Eaten? Not just a rogue, then, but someone sick in the head was responsible for this. "Go clean yourself up," she ordered the queen. "You can take whoever wants to go when you're ready.".
Gentledoe's approach was a welcome one. Thank the stars for the brown tabby, Bumblestar didn't know what she would do without her. "Hey, sweetheart," she greeted, turning her attention briefly away from Dovefluff to speak to the other she-cat fully. She didn't even catch the petname that slipped out. "Yeah, do that. Take two other cats with you and sweep the area. If you see anyone who looks suspicious, Clan cat or otherwise, take care of 'em any way you have to." If cats wanted to come onto her territory, threaten her warriors, then they could deal with the consequences. "Report back to me when you're done."

She wanted this rogue gone, even dead if possible. Even if they didn't find the one responsible for this, at least they could secure the territory for now, to ease the nerves for some cats.

With the petname uttered from Bumblestar's lips, Gentledoe felt her brow quirk. However, now was not to time to feel happy about being called sweetheart- there was an important task at paw, and she would complete it. The tabby she-cat nodded.
"Understood, love," she said, offering a thin smile in Bumblestar's direction before turning as another she-cat approached.
Ah, Mothdapple. Good. Gentledoe shared a nod to the other she-cat. That meant she only had to find one warrior to accompany them. Bicolored eyes passed over the camp before settling on a certain pelt.
"Shimmerbeak, dear, could you please come with us as well?" she called. Hopefully they could get this done quickly. She didn't want anymore warriors to be at risk- the safety of her Clan was at stake.
Either this was a nasty test from StarClan, or there really was a curse plaguing her Clan.
Bumblestar swung her head around to see Gentledoe and Stormclaw step into camp with yet another body. She stared for a moment, before quickly collecting herself and rising to meet Gentledoe halfway. The hushed explanation made her ears twitch. "Go help Stormclaw with the body. I'll take care of this."
She turned furious eyes on Petalfight, glancing the she-cat over. There was no blood on her paws, so either she had been fast with cleaning herself up, or WindClan was at fault here. "Start talkin'," she snapped. "You better have a damn good reason for this."

With Bumblestar's command, she silently stepped back and went to find Stormclaw. Upon finding him, she saw the tom rounding up the kits. Okay, cool. If he was dealing with the kits, she could handle the body. Gentledoe walked over to where Blackfir's lifeless corpse lay, sighing quietly at the sight. She needed to allow everyone to pay their respects if they wished to do so. So many deaths in the Clan, so dreadfully... unlucky?
She only wished that there was more she could do. But there was no bringing Darkpetal or Blackfir back to life.
Touching her nose to the lifeless tom's cheek, silently wishing him a peaceful rest, Gentledoe sat quietly for multiple moments before looking up. She should allow the Clan to know about his death.
"ThunderClan, I regret to announce a loss has happened amongst our ranks. Blackfir has passed on, and will be buried at Willow's Rise shortly. Before he is buried, everyone who wishes to do so may pay their respects. Any volunteers to help bury him are much appreciated as well."
While Frogkit climbed up her back, yowling as if he really was threatening her, she let out false yips and yelps of pain and terror. Oh, yeah, she was a great actress when it came to entertaining kits. "Spare me, please!"
Her attention was pulled elsewhere when she smelled… Blood? Was that blood? She sat up straight, careful not to fling the kitten off of her, instead carefully nudging Frogkit to the ground between her paws. Then, she saw Dovefluff–that's where the scent of blood was coming from.
Hurt–was she hurt? She was having a hard time understanding what she was saying, but she could understand that it wasn't good at all. Someone.. Had died?
"Ah! You're such a scary warrior, I must flee!" In reality? She just wanted to steer Frogkit away from the clearing so that he didn't see the mess that Dovefluff currently was. It was enough to scare the poor little guy, and she didn't want that. She stood up, gently nudging the kitten with her nose before she padded off to the nursery, hoping that Frogkit would make chase and follow her.
Frogkit took in the chase. Following Drizzlecloud, yowling his battle cry. (Which thus sounded like a dying Rabbit.) He noticed the smell of blood also, but he would have to get used to it if he was going to fight for Thunderclan.
He wanted to Cut Drizzlecloud off, so he could meet her in the front and finish the job. He was proud of himself for thinking like a true warrior. He took an abrupt turn that almost knocked him over, as he ran past the Warriors den. Or, was that the Nursery? Frogkit didn't care. Warriors didn't have time to look around during a fight.
He must have gone the wrong way, or Drizzlecloud was just very speedy. He found himself playing Rat and Cat again. He was getting tired but kept going till his paws didn't budge. He fell down in defeat.
Upon hearing of this tragedy, the small cat made her way to the front. Although she had never known this cat personally she felt the need to wish them safe keeping and abundance. Dipping her head out of respect, the molly retreated away.

( please VM me if I missed anyone mention or quote me so I know what to put in my next post.)
Stormclaw looked at the kits that came to him and that had already saw the body"Kits listen up closely I want all of you to go to the nursery until I say it's ok to come out I do not want any kit to see this trauma I'm sure the queen's would agree with me. Please head to the nursery" he said out loud then going over to treekit he lowered himself" treekit calm down can you go to the nursery or do you want me to carry you to the nursery? " he asked with a soothing tone
The Siamese hurried out of the apprentices' den at the mention of a body, her eyes widening when she realized just who it was. Bounding over, her eyes widened in horror and she froze, stomach churning violently. It was Darkpetal. It was her father. They hadn't spoken much. They weren't particularly close. But he was still her dad.
Stumbling back, Hazelpaw desperately swallowed against the bile rising in her throat. And then she heard someone who didn't even know Darkpetal's name. Whipping around with a snarl on her face, she glared at Cracklepaw.
"You... you didn't even know his name! What the hell are you SO EXCITED FOR?" Her voice rose in a yowl at the end as she flung herself at the other apprentice, claws unsheathed and tears stinging her eyes as she aimed to bowl Cracklepaw over.

Shimmerbeak had been watching the clearing when Dovefluff had come in with a body. This body didn't just look like someone attacked Darkpetal and died. It looked like.. someone tried to eat him before disregarding the body. This made Shimmerbeak absolutely sick to their stomach. Shimmerbeak was lost in its own world as they stared at the body. The silver and black tabby snapped out of it when it heard its name being called on a soft voice. Shimmerbeak didn't say anything as they stood up and gave Gentledoe a nod indicating it would come along and look around the area.
