Once crow had burst through camp, his hackles raised. "ATARI IS BEING INVADED!! AT THE BORDER WITH THE STRANGE GROUP. Saturn, Nyx, get your and atari's butt out here!" he yowled, ears pinned back. Who knows what those strange cats would do to Atari. They needed to fight, and thats what crow intended to do.

The ruffled healer quickly rushed out of his den, halting to a stop when he reached a Claw talking hurriedly with Saturn and Nyx. "An attack! And I thought I'd die of old age before something like that happened!"
Who could foresee that another large group of felines would have found their home just here, of all places? And now, conflict was inevitable. Blood knew that, and he wasn't scared to unsheathe his claws. By the end of this, there might be a lot of corpses for him to inspect...
"Mumble, get your pelt here!" He called from his spot toward their den. "It's time to pack things up. I want to carry our duties with our Claws and Trappers, directly on the battlefield." He remembered then that there was a chance Saturn could deny him his choice, but why should they? Anyway, he knew how to pay his respects to a higher-standing cat. Looking sideways, he added: "...If that's alright with you two, obviously." Though he didn't really care whether or not they agreed. But he knew how to play this game, and he would play his cards right.
Nyx had been sitting upon the ledge outside her den, debating what she wanted to do for classes. One thing was for sure, she wanted to teach all initiates the ways of both a trapper and a claw. She was going over who she would put as educators for this class when she spotted someone running into camp, their yowl catching her attention. It took her less then a second to process the words she heard.
"WHAT!?!?"
Nyx immediately shot to her paws. Abandoning her earlier planning for the initiates lesson, she swiftly made her way down the side of the ledge. I thought we killed all of them!? She thought as she made her way over to the claw- wait was it that other group? She had heard rumours about another group having settled near their territory and had intended to go see if those said rumours were true. Apparently they were, and they had the audacity to think they could attack the great Atari.
"how many!?" she asked excitedly, her claws scraping against the hard ground beneath her paws. Maybe this group would prove to be more of a challenge! Oh how she missed the adrenaline of battle, the scent blood and fear reeking off her opponents, the feeling of flesh tearing beneath her claws. This would be fun! New meat as they say. The moment the healer joined them she attempted to mask her excitement with a serious expression. She failed immediately. Turning to face Blood she smirked, "ofcourse I see no problem in it, as long as her highness over here agrees to it" Nyx said indicating to the crown. "Oh yeah, and Blood. If you kill one of the intruders you can bring 'em back here and do whatever it is you do if you'd like" she joked mainly to the healer. she knew of their weird um experiments they did. Now she just waited for Saturn's response to this, if it was a call for battle Nyx was sure as hell be ready to dart out of camp and KILL- uh protect her territory...yep. no need to kill unless necessary- but she would if she had to!
Caesar had just awoken from his sleep when Crow rushed into camp and warned of an imminent attack, he'd never heard anything like it and had to check for a moment that he was actually awake. Who exactly would be strong (or stupid) enough to attack the Atari in their own territory? Surely that smaller group weren’t behind it, sure they were pests and Caesar did like any chance he could get to rampage through their lands and…take care of as many cats as he could find. It was an open secret Caesar was a brutal cat, not the most moral but a good fighter, and one who would very rarely show any hints of mercy, even if the enemy were to give up with little to no fight, he would still be vicious and cruel because he believed giving up a fight to be dishonourable. That smaller group called him a butcher and a monster, even Caesar himself couldn’t disagree with them on that.
"The fools, the fools, the fools…" He said, approaching the group of cats who had gathered including the initial whistleblower, the Claw of the Crown and the Healers. "Think they can take on the Atari do they? Let's make them suffer for their stupidity…" He wouldn’t make his move without the Crown's order, but as soon as Saturn gave the go ahead, there would be no mercy…

' what..? do you seriously think they're trying to hurt us though? have they explicitly said that? i mean.. i'm all for defending the atari. but if they're not going to hurt us.. i don't think we need to.. okay. okay. ' why was she defending riverclan? mumble breathed out, looking up at blood. ' caesar, and anyone else who would like to volunteer, please help blood and i carry some simple healing herbs just in case things get.. messy. ' she grimaced, trying to hold the visuals that swarmed her head away. rationality, that was what mattered here. being normal and calm.
mumble padded back into the medicine den, licking down her fur and starting to sort out some packs of herbs. she set down some basic moss and cobwebs, wrapping them in big leaves. ' we'll need other stuff too.. ' she mumbled softly to herself.

In response to Asa’s kit comment, Vertigo reflexively snapped his head in Asa’s direction, mouth half open in preparation for protest. Before, that is, realizing that Asa had likely been joking; it was always a little hard to tell with him, to be fair. Vertigo, a father--perish the thought! He could hardly pull himself up by his own scruff, much less look after a kit. Either way, Vertigo was going to take it as a joke, as he had no idea how to even begin to respond to such a suggestion seriously.
“Ha ha,” said Vertigo dryly with a twitch of his head, slowly turning back to his bird for another bite.
Asa was right, anyways, in the sense that he should create “something to look forward to” if his life wasn’t meeting his expectations. But, ah, did Asa really have to put it like that? It just sounded like Vertigo was being ungrateful. Or maybe that’s just because he was. He wasn’t really that sure. He blinked, rolling his shoulders again. “Guess so,” he mustered after a pause.
Glancing at his brother, Vertigo noticed that he was smiling, which was a rather unusual sight. At the very least, Vertigo had reason to believe that he wasn’t completely irritating his elder brother despite having approached him so suddenly. Or was that an “I’m amused by how pathetic and strange my little brother is” kind of smile? Either way, the conversation itself was amiable for now. Vertigo knew well how pointless it was to try and read cats’ minds like that, anyway.
Skrill's bright orange gaze burning into Hawthorn's face, scanning for any sign of lying or deception. When she
saw none, the molly nodded in approval at the claw. "Keep them safe." Skrill said, her left ear twitching. All she wanted was to keep the Atari stable and safe, even if that meant picking fights with random claws and trappers.

Hawfinch nodded his fur smoothing down maybe this cat wasn’t as awful as he thought “I will don’t you worry”he added while turning to walk towards the nursery
