Foxtail trotted into camp, head held high, tail in the air. Her jaws were full of fresh kill which she deposited on the pile of prey. Then she looked around and saw Firestar. 'Wha...' she muttered, hen trotted over to Clearpool. 'What's Firestar doing here?' she asked, eyes skimming over the MoonClan leader's bleary eyes and cut leg.

Runningcloud dipped her head to Jasminestar as she let the leader pass after checking to Firestar's wounds. She turned to Crocuspool and then to Clearpool. "She is right. We should use our Clan's territory to the best of our ability. Ambush and then hastily retreat. Confuse them," the medicine cat said. "And if necessary, I will roll in the dung of a badger to frighten them away." The mighty she-cat stood up defiantly, daring anyone to challenge her.

Jasminestar nodded solemnly once Firestar was done. I knew she was going to come back, but not now. And not againest your clan first. She waved her tail slowly, dragging it in the air, like a torn kite. We must fight Chaosfire and her rogues. I must go discuss this with my deputy and warriors. Once we figure out a plan, I'll tell you. She stood up. Excuse me. She stepped outside, and ran toward Clearpool. Clearpool, gather the warriors so we can plan. We must figure out what to do. Unless, you have any ideas already? [/blockquote][/color]

Crocuspool hastened to join Clearpool as she spoke to Jasminestar. She wanted to be part of one of the patrols; she wanted to be sure that she got a chance to rip rogue fur. The tortoiseshell eyed Runningcloud in admiration as she spoke, and wondered breifly why she had given up her position of deputy for that of a medicine cat. She seemed much more strong, more powerful, than Littlefox or Cloudedsky or Dragonflydance, the other clan medicine cats. Crocuspool turned back to Clearpool and Jasminestar, her sea green eyes bright.

Clearpool nodded. "Only the plan i have told you is my idea, but i am sure we can come up with more than that" she said. Dipping her head to Jasminestar she jogged put into the clearing. "All warrios assemble in the clearing, Jasminestar would like to speak to us all!" she yowled so the whole camp and probobly the area surrounding the camp would be able to hear her. She looked to her leader. "Where would you like to hold the meeting?" she asked, licking a paw and drawing it over her ears worridly.
Brindletalon trotted over to his leader and deputy as the summon was called. He stood by the cats. "Jasminestar, Clearpool" he said quietly dipping his head before waiting formore cats to assemble. [/center][/color]

Firestar dipped her head to Jasminestar. "Of course. You deal with what you need to." She smiled weakly.
Snowflake raced over and sat to listen.

Jasminestar tilted her head for a moment in thought. Hmm. How about at the base of the High Rock? She nodded to the joining warriors, and stood up. C'mon, over here. She settled at the foot of the rock, Clearpool's normal place at clan meetings. She motioned the deputy to her side. She began to talk. Now, as you all now know, Chaosfire is now in Moonclan's camp. She is possiblely more powerful, now that we've given her about a moon to rest. This means we'll need to keep our minds clear, and our claws sharp. She took a moment to look at the wide-eyed warriors around her. We'll need constant border patrols. I'll leave that business to Clearpool. She bowed her head to the deputy. I'm sure Chaosfire will attack soon. We'll give her a couple of days, I think. Everyone who goes on patrol, remember, watch out for her scent. Also, watch out for Moonclan's scent. It's possible that she'll make them attack, or something. If you smell her or Moonclan while on patrol, do not attack. Come back to camp quietly, and then we can ready for battle. She let out a long breath. Now, while I have that all figured out, we need a battle plan. Anyone have any ideas? [/color][/blockquote]

Willowkit stood at the entrance for a long moment, watching the chaos in camp. She felt sorry for Jasminestar and Clearpool, having to run around and give orders to cats. She was staring at the assembled cats when something hit her. Where was Hyenapaw? For a moment she was panicked as he deep yellow eyes continued to search the crowds of cats. It was loud and the smell of fear was unbearable. It was probably all coming from her. What if he was out in the territory somewhere, horribly injured by Chaosfire? Nervously, she backed into the den, her whole body tense. She went to the pile of herbs and gathered a few poppy seeds. Her eyes only left the clearing once and that was when she was locating where the seeds were in the dark. She finally gave up and looked at Firestar, her ginger pelt sleek in the dark, though bloody in some places. She approached her and set the small black seeds at her paws and motioned for her to eat them. Without a second thought, she raced back to the entrance of the den, straining to hear Jasminestar's voice as she spoke.

Snowflake nodded and as her leader was silent, she meowed. "Jasminestar, what if we attack a band of warriors who escaped? We should make them declare themselves if they are from Moonclan." She meowed.

Foxtail blinked as she was ignored by the deputy of her Clan and shrugged. She supposed she would find out what was happening at this meeting anyway. As Jasminestar talked she gasped and looked at Firestar, MoonClan leader.

Crocuspool trotted to the foot of the Highledge, sitting them. She turned as Brindletalon appeared. Getting to her paws, she touched her nose to his muzzle. "That was brave," she mewed, kindly as usaul. "Going to find Runningcloud when Chaosfire's on the loose." The pretty warrior smiled at the dappled tom before sitting down again and pricking up her ears to listen to her leader's words. She looked at her paws as Jasminestar mentioned 'battle-plan' - she hated fighting. It reminded her of her past.
Octoberlies limped across the clearing to join Clearpool, Snowflake and Crocuspool at the base of the Highledge. The grey tabby flashed Willowkit a wink as he staggered past her. He sat alone, wondering where Hyenapaw was. He did not want his son out there alone if Chaosfire and her rogues were about. If they found a lone apprentice on SerenityClan territory they were sure to kill him. Octoberlies listened quietly to his leader's words, inwardly wondering how he was expected to fight a battle in his state. Unsheathing his claws and sinking them into the earth, Octoberlies knew that he would try.

Clearpool dipped her head to Jasminestar. "I'll keep control of the patrols Jasminestar" she assured her leader. She looked around at the other cats. The were all intelligent, surely somebody would have a plan. She racked her brain, what would be a good plan? "I'm sure if MoonClan did come to attack with the rogues they would not attack a Clan that had provided somewhere for their leader to stay would they? Not if she ordered them not to" the white she-cat said, blinking her blue eyes thoughtfully. Brindletalon blinked in surprise at Crocuspools sign of affection. "Th-Thank you" he managed to stammer. A weird bubble had formed in his stomach at Crocuspools touch. He shook hsi head to clear it and went to sit beside Octoberlies. He couldnt help glancing at Crocuspool a few times though.

Runningcloud itched for battle once more, but it had been a couple moons since she had received her call from StarClan. She sighed heavily, knowing that she was supposed to stand outside the rivalries and wars but it was hard when one trained to kill all their life. The broad-shouldered ginger sighed and turned to her left, her eye catching on the bough of hemlock kept aside for cats in immense pain and weren't able to save. Pain crossed her face and she turned to Jasminestar, padding out to the Clan meeting. "I...know that medicine cats stand outside of rivalries, but I feel that I am being called to be summoned back into war because this is no Clan threat. This is a rogue threat, where Clans must bind together."
"But what if you get hurt, Runningcloud?" Pansypaw squeaked. "You're the best we've got when it comes to medicine."
"I'll resort to poison," Runningcloud said solemnly, her eyes emotionless as she glanced up at Jasminestar. "Hemlock smells of mouse when crushed. There will be no problem if the rogues attempt to steal 'my' kill, only to find it's laced." She sighed and glanced up at Jasminestar again. "I'm willing to try anything if it means our safety."

Jasminestar turned her head to Runningcloud, and nodded. That is a good idea, Runningcloud. You had warriors training. You can help as much as you can. Her look grew stern. But if anyone is put out of battle, remember, they're your first priority. Okay? She knew Runningcloud already knew this, but she felt the need to say it. She turned back to the warriors. Good, Clearpool. She noticed Octoberlies had come, too. Her eyes softened at the injured warrior. Octoberlies... She twisted her mouth in thought. Octoberlies, I know you want to fight the rogues badly. But you are still weak. Unless you feel that you're really ready, then I suggest that you just help out Runningcloud. [/color][/blockquote]

Crocuspool pricked up her ears to listen, but felt Brindletalon's eyes on the back of her head several times. The tortoiseshell turned and smiled at the dappled tom, hazel eyes bright. Crocuspool turned to look at Octoberlies, her face softening in sympathy. She smiled at the grey tabby, pitying him. She was sure he wished that he could fight. Raising her voice, Crocuspool called; "Jasminestar? Could Brindletalon and I take the first patrol?" Both were young warriors, but could take care of themselves.
Octoberlies turned as Brindletalon sat down beside him. He watched his friend's head turn to glance at Crocuspool several times. He noticed the pretty tortoiseshell twist around and smile at his friend. Octoberlies gave a great purr of amusement and nudged Brindletalon with a forepaw. "Brindletalon has a crush!" He teased. As Jasminestar began to speak, he pricked up his ears to listen. His mouth opened in outrage at his leader's words, and he tried to get up in protest, but his injured legs stopped him with a twinge of pain. Octoberlies sat down painfully and bowed his head. "Yes, Jasminestar." He heard Crocuspool's words but was too crushed to tease his friend.

"I understand," the ginger she-cat said sternly, nodding her head to her leader's words.
Runningcloud's massive frame floated over to be next to Octoberlies, and the kind grandmotherly figure smiled. "My friend, do not despair. Your help will be more valuable to me than any mission for Jasminestar or Clearpool. This mission is very dangerous..." She flexed her claws, staring at them for a pensive moment. Her eyes flickered over to the tom and then to the others.
"I need you, Octoberlies. You are valued more than you know..."

Clearpool sat quietly, taking in what everyone had to say. She listened to Runningclouds idea and nodded. That was a good plan, that would certainly get rid of some rogues. Her eyes swivveled to Crocuspool when she spoke and she looked to Jasminestar, nodding her head slightly to tell her leader it was fine with her if brindletalon and Crocuspool went out on the first patrol. Clearpool flicked her tail thoughtfully, still wondering about what she had said before. Would MoonClan really attack SerenityClan if their leader was in SerenityClans camp? Brindletalon smiled weakly at Crocuspool as she turned to him. He batted Octoberlies gently with one paw. "Shut up!" he hissed out the corner of his mouth, flushing with embaressment. He pircked his ears as Crocuspool sais his name and widened his eyes in surprise. Why did Crocuspool want to go with him? He blinked a few times and said to Jasminestar "I'm quite happy to go on patrol with Crocuspool" before falling silent again. He tried to stay watching his leader and deputy but couldnt help sneaking a few quick glances at Crocuspool. [/center][/color]

The small scrap of fur sat in the entrance of the den, her tail set over her small dainty paws, and her eyes pricked and alert. She was listening quietly, keeping a emotionless face as Runningcloud acted a Deputy or a warrior. She sighed, wishing she knew where Hyenapaw was but she pushed that out of her mind and padded back into the den, her skinny tail dragging behind her, making a small line in the sand. "You should sleep, Firestar," she instructed the ginger leader in a quiet voice. It quivered slightly but she smiled slightly. She didn't want to leave Firestar but she wanted to help in anyway she could. Willowkit slowly padded out of the dark den and over to where Octoberlies and Runningcloud. She squeezed in the middle, nodding her head slightly to Octoberlies and then looked up at Runningcloud. "I want to help. Maybe not fight but treat wounds in battle. Please, Runningcloud!" she looked at her mentor, giving her a 'puppy-face' kind of look.

Snowflake nodded to what everyone was saying. "I can head out on another patrol to watch the other borders, because she might come from other territories."
Firestar nodded to the kit. "But it's just too hard to sleep with hearing what happening in my camp and not being able to do anything." She meowed.
Suddenly, a sleek loner popped his head into camp. Teufel padded over to the group of cats and sat down. "I do believe I could be of help," He meowed in his german accent. "I could go spy on Moonclan and see what's happening." He looked around, not really afraid of what these cats could do to him. His sleek gray pelt made him blend into the rocks around him, but the white stuck him out. He still sat and looked around, wondering if anyone would challenge him.

Runningcloud opened her mouth to deny Willowkit, but then thought twice. "All right, Willowkit, but you have to keep close to me," the large ginger said sternly. "If you want, you can help me pick out my hemlock too. I'll have to condense my teachings so you learn what to do. We'll capture a rogue and we'll see what we can do."
Suddenly, her nose twitched and she turned to see an unknown cat enter the SerenityClan borders. She snarled loudly, echoing it like thunder. "Crocuspool, Brindletalon!" she called to the cats. "I believe you can investigate your first intruder." The medicine cat narrowed her eyes defiantly, the sun casting fire on her ginger pelt.

// Cool it. *waves paws*
The tortoiseshell sprang to her fur, patched fur bristling furiously. She rolled back her lips to bare her sharp teeth the colour of snow. Crocuspool stalked, stiff legged, towards the loner and sniffed him from nose to tail tip. To her relief he did not smell like Chaosfire, but she wasn't sure. Chaosfire had ways of sneaking her own into the recesses of SerenityClan, ready to pounce... Crocuspool surpressed a shudder and faced up to the loner, hazel eyes gleaming with fire. "Who are you and what do you want?" she growled, voce threatening.

Jasminestar responded to Brindletalon and Crocuspool. She could sense that something was going on. She could see the way the warriors whispered and hit each other playfully something a little personal was going on. But she didn't bother to mix in with it. That might've been what she had done as warrior, maybe deputy. Not now. Sure, both of you go now. Remember, keep a low profile, and come back immediately if you sense anything supicious. Jasminestar turned her neck when she heard the loner come. She snapped her head around, and stood up. Her fur rose slightly, her back arched slightly. She bared her teeth for a moment. We need no help. How do we know you're not a spy for Chaosfire?! She didn't even use her good judgement to talk out with the loner to see if he could be trusted. A new side of her, one she didn't even know she had, seemed to take over. [/color][/blockquote]

Firestar struggled up and padded unevenly over to Jasminestar. "I couldn't help overhearing you. Teufel is a friend of Moonclan. He has helped us in the past and I believe you can trust him." The ginger she-cat dipped her head and staggered back to her nest, her hurt leg causing her to limp.
Teufel was about to reply when Firestar came over. He nodded his thanks to her for her support and meowed, "She is right. I was once apart of Moonclan, but my parents, they were bloodthirsty and took me with them when they were exiled." He dipped his head in a formal and respectful way to Jasminestar.

// Okay, okay.
Crocuspool narrowed her eyes at the loner's words. She bared her teeth, hazel eyes glittering with suspicion. She gave a glad nod as Jasminestar spoke, her tortoiseshell fur bristling. The pretty she-cat turned to glare at Firestar as she spoke. She was not her leader, so she felt no shame in challenging her. "How do we know he has not since joined Chaosfire?" she spat. "She works like that." Crocuspool nodded at Jasminestar's orders and slunk away from the loner. She brushed past Brindletalon, mewing; "C'mon."

Clearpool eyed Teufel warily. She didnt speak up, it wa snot her place, she would let Jasminestar make the decision whether to trust the tom or not. She watched Crocuspool slide away with brindletalon in tow and smiled slightly. At least amongst these hard times cats could still show affection for each other. She turned her head back in Teufels direction, the hair on the back of her neck rising slightly. Brindletalon looked at Teufel with eyes full of distrust but then blinked back to his normal bright eyed self when Crocuspool spoke to him. "Oh right, okay" he said, getting to his feet to follow Crocuspool. "Bye" he whispered to Octoberlies and dipped his head to Jasminestar, Clearpool and Runningcloud before turning to briskly trot after Crocuspool. ooc: Shadeh you can make the thread . [/center]

Firestar's ears didn't catch the comment from Crocuspool, as the ginger form was sleeping finally in her nest.
The tom looked around. "Well I guess if you don't want help defeating Chaosfire, I'll just leave..." He began to pad away, making his steps deliberate and hanging his head and tail.

[[ I don't need cooling. I was just giving some advice to make posts more detailed. ]]
Willowkit grinned very large as Runningcloud said that she could help her and she nodded as her mentor said she would have to stay close. That wouldn't be a problem because there was only one reason why she would wander off, and that was to find Hyenapaw. Hopefully there would be no need. She also nodded to what Runningcloud said about the hemlock but she was a bit distracted by the loner that came in. She sank down next to her mentor, watching the scene unfold.[/color]
