Rainpaw - 12 Moons - Apprentice - Healthy - Territory - Mentions: Stormstep, Mintwhisper, Fernstar

Rainpaw’s fur started to rise at the mention of war. A fight was the last thing they needed. She glanced at Mintwhisper, silently pleading for someone to defuse the situation before it lead to either parties being hurt. Worse, it could lead to Aetherclan rejecting help from Terraclan and distrust.

Sootstep had tried to relax in camp. Keyword being, of course, tried. Yet, as he watched the sun marching overhead worries began to fill his chest as the leader had not yet returned. In Starclan's name, why did he allow her to go off alone with strangers? The ashen tom rose to his feet and began to pad off at a breakneck pace from the temporary camp using the faint trail of Fernstar's scent to guide him. After half-trotting along the path for a long while, he stumbled across a scene that triggered his hackles to raise imminently.

It seemed some new strangers had wandered onto their territory, the charcoal hued tom seemingly marking their own territory straight in front of them. Tassled ears picked up on the last few words and Soot suppressed a throaty growl. He came to stop with his shoulders equal to his titanic leader's flank, making it clear she was in control of the situation. Truly, the smoke-hued warrior barely had an idea of what was going on aside from what he was witnessing.

Cobalt eyes narrowed into slits at the strangers. "Actually, I don't think I know of any members of our clan that got burnt." He tipped his head in a clearly false playful manner, gaze squinting in a 'moment of thought'. "Perhaps some unlucky warriors fell victim to the smoke, but none are doing too bad." Aside from the two cats standing before you, oh mighty one. He sneered in his head, throat bobbing slightly as he made a mental note to try and hide the rasp of his voice.

Head swiveled to look at the large brute before him. Soot definitely felt that he was a smaller cat if something were to happen, a wiry frame and wispy fur not exactly helping him in the threatening stature department. He turned to eye the other cats in the male's party with as blank of a stare he could possibly pull. A smaller cat, most likely apprentice aged, stood by a she-cat. How intimidating.

Truly, Soot was a little bit terrified of confrontation at this moment but decided lying in his thoughts had a chance of convincing his mind of certainty. Starclan, how he hated demonstrations like this. Especially participating in one. It was a battle of blank expressions and words dripping with ice, and it was annoying.

The tom himself played his emotions clearly across his visage, every thought flashing in his gaze and read across the slight chew he had of his lip. He didn't mean to but it was a trait since birth. Of course, I could pretend to be worried for the other cats' guards to go down if an attack was needed. Though, I guess it would be better to get everyone to calm the Starclan down. Did the previous strangers not just promise peace, but I'm currently staring down an invasion? VVhat is going on? Is the point to confuse me? Sootstep blinked at the jumble of thoughts tearing into his mind.

Could they not just get directly to the point?

He once more cocked his head, a genuine inquire murmuring from parted lips. "Can you say the same?"

Mintwhisper backed off slightly, letting her fur lie flat. Her muscles still stayed tense, ready to leap into action to protect her clan mates if the need arose. Tail flicking the deep red she cat went to stand protectively by Rainpaw, glaring coldly at the two Aetherclan cats. As much as she wanted to defuse the situation she couldn’t do much as Fernstars back seemed to appear, intimidation and sly words wouldn’t do much. She could try to reason though.

“Mhm I don’t think you know much about how serious smoke inhalation can be then.” She hummed in a cold tone, the icy facade she used was one she didn’t like. “With the fires do you really think it’s be a good idea to start a war Fersnstar?” She looked directly at the silver tabby, “I believe it’d be a better use of your time and energy hunting so your clan can survive this tratedgy rather than fight over some territory you hardly ever seem to use.”
She raised a brow, “I don’t believe you’ll find much prey after the fires scare away every animal, your warriors are already suffering from the smoke as your friend has shared with us, if you fight us you’ll weaken yourselves more. Any injuries you receive will take its toll. Use your energy wisely Madame.”

Stormstep smiles as the Tom stepped up. “You have brought friends?” He flicked his tail calmly and swung out a leg, catching Soot’s front paws and he knocked them from beneath him. He smiled and flared at the leader. He laughed and braced himself if he got attacked. He chould take these 2 cats. No one had seen him fight before. He stood chest out and head high, with no hint of fear coming off of him. He felt fearless. “Hey, by the way Are you aurrreeee no one is affected that much by the smoke?”

After catching the vole she’d been tracking, Tatteredjaw’s wars picked up on the sound of hostile cats. She sprinted in the direction to come face to face with her fellow clan mates facing down Sootstep and Fernstar. She didn’t even think about her next actions as she shoved herself between them. “What do you think you’re doing?!” She hissed, giving Stormstep a furious and fierce look. “We are supposed to take this territory by opportunity, not by force!” The sturdy she-cat was very upset, but there was a pleading look behind her eyes as well.
They’ve lost so much, don’t be so cruel.

“Your defending the other clan?” Stormstep watched her with careful eyes. “Have you grown.. soft?” He growled when he said soft. “Don’t interfere with MY business. Especially when they want to pester us. I am just marking a border. They have stood here and won’t go away. I know what I’m doing.” He growled at the She-Cat. “I expect you to NOT interfere with the leaders commands and the deputy’s conversations. Now you will go back to the clan or are you going to stay here?” He pushed the She-Cat back. He did NOT like the way he acted what so ever and he stared at her with anger burning in his eyes.

He padded forward so that his nose was just at the new boundaries. “Now. Excuse my rediculous and rude clan mate. And let’s have you treat your cats and you leave?” He asked Fernstar.

Tatteredjaw’s nostrils flared, feeling absolutely ashamed and betrayed by her so called ‘family.’ She puffed her chest out, her postre dropping. Stormstep had lost her respect and her trust. “You are a sad excuse for a warrior.” She hissed, only loud enough for him to hear, before turning to Fernstar and Sootstep. “Our leader sent them to claim this land for our clan, but we do still plan on helping you with your recovery. Terrastar has no intention of hurting your clan, he just wants what is best for us.” She said, her posture straightening once more. She was loyal to her clan, but would not stand for their deputy fighting two cats who were still suffering from the fire.

“Okay, It doesn’t faze me on what you think about me.” He shrugged. That cat is not a good warrior. If she would not respect her Deputy maybe she needed punishment. “So here’s the deal. Mistwhisper and Rainoaw finish marking the border while I take this cat back to the clan. It’s a shame I have to do this and our warrior can’t controll our selves.” He rolled his eyes. “Okay let’s go Taggeredjaw.”

Mintwhisper blinked at Stormstep, she had to agree that it would’ve been best not to start a fight. “Stormstep there’s no reason to start a fight yet.” She growled, if Aetherclan had initiated the battle she would’ve been fine with that but there was no reason to antagonize the other clan. She then nodded at his words and dig her claws out of the dirt, giving Sootstep a look over from where she stood.

“I apologize for my clanmate,” She said sincerely, “I do not wish to enter battle with you, personally I’d rather have solved this through words.” She grumbled the last part out but kept her eyes on Fernstar, wary. “I will protect my clan but I won’t start the fight. The chose is yours, wasted strength and energy? I believe Stormstep isn’t too far away, he could come back and help. Or would you rather save this fight for another day when your stronger?” Mintwhisper knew that Fernstar would likely attack since they were the ones that attacked first but she hoped for Rainpaw’s sake they could solve this without violence.

Fernstar | 26 moons | Leader | Coughing up blood | Territory | Mentions; Stormstep, Rainpaw, Mintwhisper, Tatteredjaw, Sootstep

The titanic silver tabby gave a small growl at the toms dismissal. What an impudent deputy, she would have to take it up with Terrastar at their meeting. She filed away her thought for later. "No, you aren't." She replied. Two could play at this game. She stepped on the border, pulling up her large frame. Her deep emerald green gaze narrowed. She stood taller by at least a head by all of the cats assembled, and she used that as an advantage to intimidate them.

She blinked her deep malachite gaze in surprise at Sootstep backed her up, and blinked at him gratefully, then turned her hard verdigris hues back to Stormstep, stepping closer to him, looking down at him. "Exactly." She said, backing up his claim about the hurt cats. "And if Terrastar truly wants to help us, I doubt he would enjoy his deputy being aggressive." She meowed, her tone cold and flinty. Her long claws unsheathed and dug into the blackened soil as Sootstep got knocked down. She growled.

Her gaze turned to Mintwhisper. "Yes. exactly. This is why we need all of our territory, so we have a better chance of getting prey." She meowed in an even, emotionless voice. She watched everything go down with Tatteredjaw with a frown on her muzzle, then turned back to Mintwhisper, and nodded. "Me too." She meowed. "But let me tell you, my Clanmates won't be as lenient as I am. If anyone so much touches one of my Clanmates and they see, they'll come down with the entire force of AetherClan." She warned.

Sootstep watched with a furrowed brow as the cocky masculine swept out a leg in an attempt to knock him over. It would have probably fully worked if the fox-dung brained warrior had tried to knock over a different cat. The sheer size of the tree-trunk like leg made the svelte tom crumble slightly, catching himself with one leg as the other three met the ground fully. Fiery cobalt gaze rose to meet the stranger's as he stood back up, chest squared. He knew himself to not be the strongest cat in the clan, but one with some of the best reflexes and sheer ability to, well, run. Not so much to avoid a boulder of a cat coming at him from the side.

A chuckle was forced out of Soot's throat. "Personally, I think it is sad. Invading another clan's territory, only when they are as 'weak' and 'in need of help' as you speak of us? Are you really that bad at confrontation?" Cobalt eyes widened with shock as Tatteredjaw came out of nowhere and planted herself between the strangers and himself. She was one of the genuine cats who had visited them earlier to request peace. And a torn, conflicted clan behind the scenes. Take over those who are weak, or make them strong again? Perhaps, they can't decide.

His gaze burned into Tatteredjaw's with a depth of mixed emotions. The tom was more curious and confused than intimidated by this whole display. As the brute spoke again, Soot barely spared him a glance, registering the male with contempt. All these threats and he did not even know of their names. Pathetic. He let his haunches hit the ground and feathery tail sweep languidly across the terrain of his home.

Soot tipped his head at one of the she-cats who began to speak. A sigh parted from his chest as his eyes rolled. Again, with the conflicting statements. "Make up your mind, will you?" The smoke-hued tabby began with a perpetual rasp. "Do you want to help us or invade?" He mused while looking at the younger cat. VVho thought it was a good idea to bring an appie along on a fairly hostile mission? Soot had so many questions for this strange clan of cats.
He turned his cranium to look at Fernstar. His gaze softened slightly and he let a large breath filter into his lungs as he listened to her words. Starclan how he wanted a vole right now.

Tatteredjaw gazed at the Aetherclan warrior, furrowing her brows. Yes, they were giving off conflicting signals. She wanted to help her clan, but she also wanted to help theirs, but if it ever came down to it she would choose Terraclan. Her heart pounded against her rib cage, her posture slumped ever so slightly as she could almost feel the fury of her deputy, but there was not backing down now. The wounded warrior’s jaws parted, as if she wanted to say something, but she opted for silence.

With a quiet hum, she walked a few feet away to pick up the vole she caught earlier. As if to spite Stormstep, she dropped it in front of the two Aetherclan cats.

Stormstep walked back up to Fernstar. "Woah woah. YOu can rat on me if you want. But I'm here, claiming territory and yet I backed down. Now you see your here. Stepping on our territory so I am asking you kindly to back off of it. Or are you asking for a fight? And I'm not scared of a clan of cats." He stepped up to Fernstar. Anger radiated off of him. He wanted to claw the leaders ears off right then are there.
