Ratpelt - 21 moons - warrior - TerraClan - injured hind leg - mentions: Birchheart, ID to the other cats in his group

Ratpelt eyes flick over to the other cats. He wasn't even paying attention to them walking. "I don't know where their camp is, or the temp.," he adds in before going to his signature frown. "Do you think we passed it?" he asks looking back to Birchheart, his ears pulled back. He could blame the others for being lost because he's never been there. Or around the location. He feels a lot more relaxed that they're not at the camp yet. The thought of fighting is slowly starting to make him pump up to bite another cat. His leg burns and he quickly licks it.

Doesong watches as the kits play from a small distance across the camp. She couldn't help but feel nausea rising in her stomach before her paws. Her head pops up to Icestream running into camp before she heads quickly over to Ravenkit. As Sweetheart grabs the tomkit, the young warrior spots the dark brown tomcat. Her green eyes sharply narrow on Terrastar. The greyish brown she-cat jolts forward and quickly grabs onto Terrastar's tail pulling him back and attempting to force him away from any other cats.

Maplepaw - 11 moons - Apprentice - Healthy - Aetherclan camp - Mentions: Stonedrop NPC, open!


Everything happens quickly. Maplepaw is just catching her breath from her sprint to camp when cats come crashing through the camp barriers. Her immediate reaction is to make sure Stonekit and the other kits get to the nursery, but the elders and queens beat her to it. Now that she knows the kits are safe, Maplepaw puffs up to her maximum floof size and hisses at the closest Terraclan cat, a grey tom with a cold expression.

The tabby apprentice uses every skill her mentor has taught her combined with her large and still growing frame to beat back the invader. She will not let these foxhearted Terraclan cat get away with attacking the camp her Stonekit is in.

Birchheart - 27 Moons - Deputy - Healthy - Aetherclan Territory/ Camp - Mentions: Birchheart’s group, all Aetherclan cats, Open!

Birchheart trotted quicker as she recognized the familiar terrain. She listen intently to the other cats conversations. “Don’t worry everyone, we’re almost there, I recognize this place.” Birchheart meowed. Off in the near distance, she heard a very familiar yowl. Her ears perked up, and started running towards the sound. “This way everyone! Quickly, Terrastar is attacking!” Birchheart yowled towards her troop.

The adrenaline in her veins felt like a jolt of electricity through her body. She sprinted into the familiar Aetherclan camp. She yowled again, announcing their presence. “Go go!” Birchheart yelled. She bolted towards the general crowd of panicked cats. She notices a cat grab Terrastar ‘s tail, and tackled her to get her away from him.

Doesong's head snaps back to the incoming cats and her weak muscles tense up. The she-cat spots the deputy of TerraClan about to pull her off. She drops off Terrastar quickly to face Birchheart. The grey-brown she-cat hisses at Birchheart, her body pulled together and fluffed up. Adrenaline courses through her veins, her head snaps for her to run off and get Ravenkit. Ignoring her instinct to make sure the tomkit is okay, she goes ahead and leaps for Birchheart.

Cherrykit - 4 moons - Kit - Healthy - Temp Camp - Mentions: Sweetheart(ID), Ravenkit(ID), Stonekit(ID), Brierrose, Open!

Cherrykit smiles smugly at Ravenkit, laughter bubbling up in her chest. However it died when large cats burst into camp with a war cry and, judging by her clanmates, they didn’t seem welcome. Her dual colored eyes widened as Ravenkit rushed forward to fight. Fight! The invading cats were so much bigger than him!
Panicking she leapt into the tall grass she had just popped out of, her ears laying flat on the back of her head. She didn’t see Sweetheart pick up Stonekit or Ravenkit, instead curling into a ball and keeping quiet for once. Her fur puffed up as she peeled out from behind the blades of grass.
Her gaze darted from the battling cats, swallowing thickly before her eyes landed on Brierrose. Her thoughts stuttered and started up again, pushing back the fear the little calico would start to run across the camp toward the motherly she-cat.

Mintwhisper nodded and thanked them, settling into silence as they ran deeper in Aetherclan territory. Her nerves bubbled up when she heard Terrastars call, Birchheart leading them into the camp shortly after. As she descended her eyes darted around the camp looking for an opponent. She alsmost stepped on a small kit that streaked past, eyes widening in surprise and an uncomfortable feeling settled in her stomach.
She huffed and turned away, an eyes trailing to the nursery. They wouldn’t attack innocent kits but she did worry for the little ones mental well-being. Growling she sprang at one of the Aetherclan apprentices that was heading toward the exit, he must have been trying to find the Aetherclan patrols for help. The apprentices may not have been fully trained warriors but they were still strong. She would hope to just pin them down and scare him but she lost her grip on him, at least he wasn’t running. Instead he scampered a few feet away before facing her again.

Maplepaw - 11 moons - Apprentice - Healthy - Aetherclan camp - Mentions: Birchheart ID, Doesong ID, Sootheart, Mintwhisper, open


Done with the Terraclan tom she was fighting, Maplepaw scans the camp to see where she could be of help. She spots Doesong and Birchheart fighting, but it looks like the Aetherclan she is fine without her assistance. Not seeing any cat that needs her assistance urgently, Maplepaw goes to guard the medicine den. With Rubynose and Cypresspaw out of camp, the herbs are left unprotected and she can't trust the Terraclan warriors not to destroy or steal them. She can't underestimate how far Terrastar will go.

A grey Terraclan she cat meets her eyes and Maplepaw growls at her, daring the other cat to try and get past her. Surprisingly though, the warrior turns away from her and charges at Sparkheart. A glimpse of red fur catches her green gaze and Maplepaw frowns. Even Mintwhisper is here. It is expected but still hurt to see the nice warrior that watched over Stonekit when he got lost now attacking them. The apprentice doesn't understand why Terraclan is attacking Aetherclan. She doesn't want to fight if she doesn't has to and the red warrior seemed reasonable when she spoke to her last.

"Mintwhisper! Why is your clan attacking? What do you want from us," she cries out, confused and angry. She hopes she can talk peacefully between them, but there is only a small chance it will end that way.

Sootheart - 16 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Aetherclan camp - Mentions: Maplepaw, Lionstripe NPC, Sparkheart NPC, open


Sootheart crashes into the Aetherclan camp and comes face to face with a young tabby, growling at her with a lashing tail. The warrior determines this she-cat is still an apprentice. She frowns, thinking of Foxpaw. She doesn't feel right picking on an apprentice, so she turns away. The apprentice doesn't follow and it takes the grey warrior a moment to realize it's because she's guarding their medicine den. She would be offended by the apprentice's low confidence in TerraClan's character if they weren't currently invading her camp and attacking her clanmates.

There is a triumphant yowl ahead of her and Sootheart sees Lionstripe lose against an Aetherclan warrior. Not letting him get away with that, Sootheart charges at the tom, the momentum knocking them both to the ground. Soon they are clawing and biting in a flurry of limbs. Already tired from his previous scuffle, the tom loses power soon and Sootheart is the one left standing. She determines the tom is unable to fight and runs off to the next cat. They have to clear a path for Terrastar to get to Fernstar. That is her duty.

Owlflight || 32 Moons || Deputy || Healthy || Temp. Camp || Mentions: None directly.

Owlflight stopped in his tracks at the chaos, blinking slowly as his pupils turned to slits. The massive charcoal colored tom eventually bared his fangs and puffed up his fur. His haunches raised, his nose wrinkled, and his orange eyes narrowed dangerously.

Finally his mouth opened, and his claws sank into the earth beneath them. He let out the loudest, angriest, most intimidating battle shriek he could, the scarred cat trying to attract as much attention as he could, if only to help his clan get the upper hand during the distraction.

Ratpelt - 17 moons (I FOUND HIS AGE GUYS) - TerraClan Warrior - Injured hindleg - aetherclan camp - mentions: Maplepaw, Mintwhisker, Owlflight

The short tomcat nearly groans as the cats head into the battle, he sighs and pads after them with a slower pace. His nose takes in the scent of blood and anger. His grey eyes flick between the cats attempting to differentiate the cats in which clan is which. Eventually, he goes to tackle Maplepaw but the yowl from Owlflight makes him hesitate and he rolls between the apprentice and Mintwhisker. Ears growing hot with embarrassment his eyes snap to Owlflight and he hisses at the tomcat. The short and stocky tomcat gets up and moves from the two cats to stare down the deputy and fluffs out his curled fur as best as he can.

The deputy finished his screech and let it hang and echo in the air, eyes flicking around to the cats in camp. The tiny hiss to his left makes him blink, turning his head. The fact that this little cat seemed to have been about to attack his apprentice only riled him up more. He puffed out his pelt as much as he could, easily doubling his already massive size (the only cat larger, as far as he knew, was Fernstar herself), bared every fang and spitting viciously. The battlescars on the side of his face and body, gnarled and twisted, wrinkled and curled as he did so, shining almost wetly in the light.

Try me, it seemed to shout. I'll rip off your ears.

Lostsoul - 14 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Temp Camp - Aether

Lostsoul had heard commotion from her place in the territory. With a chilling shiver down her spine she realised that it was a battle cry, and coming from the camp! She darted down the territory to her tree to get an overlook of the battle. They were even matched and Lostsoul was about to jump down from her tree to help, until she saw a certain calico ball of fuzz booking it across camp. Panic set in as she saw Cherrykit running inbetween the fighting cats to get to somewhere that was blocked by leaves. Without giving it much thought she jumped of the tree, tripping a bit from the harsh landing, and sprints over to the tiny kit. Without breaking stride she grabs the kit by the scruff and manages to skid under by a pair of fighting cats. Making it to the nursery she sets down the kit and tells her to stay inside with the other kits and queens. Lostsoul stations herself outside the nursery, she had no idea how savage these cats could be and she wasn't taking chances.

Mintwhisper hissed as the unfamiliar Aetherclan apprentice retreated. Hearing the Aetherclan deputy's earpiercing shriek she was about to turn towards him before a familiar voice caught her attention. She did not want to deal with this. Turning slowly the red warrior did her best to keep any emotion out of her facial features, standing stiffly in front of Maplepaw. "Maplepaw." She replied evenly, her resolve already crumbling as she stared at the anger and confusion in the apprentice's face. She stalked closer, her expression becoming softer. "Look, we had orders from Terrastar. Some ghost cats have been speaking to him and told him to attack Aetherclan." Her gaze darted around her surroundings before focusing back on Maplepaw. "Im sorry about this."
With that she turned around and sprinted toward where Ratpelt stood in front of the crazy looking cat. Taking a breath she schooled her expression. "Need any help?" She asked the dark tom, a smirk on her lips. As long as she didn't have to fight Maplepaw or see Stonekit she could handle this. She turned toward the Aetherclan deputy next, "I didn't know that one of the deputies duties is to make cats go deaf!" Her voice had a teasing tone, trying to rile up Owlflight.

Owlflight only seemed to look... mildly unimpressed at her attempt at a jab, blinking slowly while he kept his attention on the two warriors. If he could even call them that, considering what they were doing. His ears angled about, listening around him as he spoke, curling his lip again.

"I wasn't aware that it was in a warrior's duties to follow the order of a brainless halfwit in his warmongering, risking the lives of innocent kits, apprentices and queens but here we are." He sneered in disgust, glancing for an instant at Maplepaw to make sure she was okay. Then his gaze fixed back on the two in front of him.

"Your poor judgement isn't my concern. The cats it *kills*, however, are." He spat.

Stonekit-4moons-kit-healthy-tempcamp-mentions : Mintwhisper

Stonekit snorted at being told to stay. He was going to stay in the nursery, he wasn't stupid, but the second time he started to feel a little indignant. Stonekit dived into the bramble wall and wiggled out just far enough to watch the battle. He ignored any voices coming from in the nursery and focused his ears on the battle. He could hear so many voices, yowling, screeching, fur flying. Stonekit was thrilled. Every time he saw an AetherClan warrior prevail over an invaider, he wanted to join in the fight. He was filled with pride in his clan.
His excitement overflowed.
Stonekit charged out of the brambles and at a large red cat who caught his eye. He didn't recognise Mintwisper until he bit her hind legs and got a mouthfull of her scent. His teeth werent quite long enough to actually hurt the big warrior, but he dropped back in shock. "Mintwhisper?" He meowed, just barely audible in the din of yowls. He took a step back from this warrior he thought had been kind. His eyes widened as his eyes fell on the blood on her paws and muzzle.
This cat, the cat he had thought was kind and helpful, was attacking and hurting his clanmate's. Why? He turned to run back to the nursery. So confused and upset.
Were there bad cats in his own clan too? Was it just the cats in Terraclan like Mintwhisper? How many and cats where bad now, but nice before? What made her change? So many questions...

Ratpelt looks back to Mintwhisker before back to Owlflight. The tom-cat had a point. With a small huff, his fur unspikes and gives Mintwhisker a sharp look. "Exactly what I told you about," he snaps at the red she-cat. His eyes sharply snap down to Stonekit before he gives a low growl at the kit. "Terrastar is a mouse-brained, bug eating, flea-ridden cat. He can be the leader all he wants but it doesn't say anything about what his motives are. He wants revenge for what Fernstar did but it doesn't mean I should die over something so fish brained. What has AetherClan against us?" His whiskers twitch.
