Slackjaw | Warrior | Camp | 52 Moons | Dawnclan | Mentions: All attacking Slackjaw, Heatherpaw | Tom |

Swipe..swipe..claw, run... He glanced towards Heatherpaw, flicking his ear from the blood now gripping from many cuts on his body. His chest heaved as he bolted from the two, along side Heatherpaw. "He's not dead Heatherpaw...He'll make it to camp...I know Longfang and he's stronger than this... Did you see the scars on his body?" He asked, looking down at him, soon reaching the edge of the forest and dodging into a bush, simply to rest for a moment.. "Resthere for a moment..we join back in a few... Longfang only lost an eye...the medicine cat will make sure he heals just fine...my intentions were never to kill him...only to cripple him somehow and I did what I came here to do.." He spoke, his whole body stung with wounds.. it was painful..very painful.

"The battle between me and Longfang is one of personal hatred...but I feel he will leave us alone now. Heatherpaw..
you trust me..right..?"

"Do you remember a rogue I mentioned moons ago named Zero...? Well Zero is Longfang.. he was the one who nearly killed me.. in cold blood too..." Slackjaw explained,
now licking the blood from the worst of the wounds, ignoring the pain in his body. "Longfang nearly killed me moons ago now and I still hadn't gotten my anger out...until today...I took the opportunity to cripple him for life..and it worked...
he will never come after me again.. Longfang is a murderer Heatherpaw..and I was almost one of his victims.."

Slackjaw's gaze remained on Heatherpaw now, his eyes showing as much truth he could muster up. He was an amazing liar..He turned his gaze to the battle. "We should let the rest of Dawnclan handle taking one of SHadowstar's lives.. if they do so. It'll mean we've won the battle...we should stay here just in case though.."

Shadowstar|43 moon Heterochromia Black Tom|Duskclan Leader|Location- Border|Mentions- [d]Midnightsnow
"Don't fear the night, for it's the only time you can see the stars."

Shadowstar felt himself get barrelled into, falling against Midnightsnow, and writhing under the deputy like a snake, feeling scratches in his skin as he pummeled the deputy with strong back legs to slither out of his grasp, avoiding the choke and rolling to a crouch, glaring at the other cat. Panting slightly and with a new wound to his collection, he took the moment to breath and size the deputy up, only having half heart the toms words. Yet, as he waited for the other cat to try and strike again he spoke, the furious voice odd and unfitting for the usually calm tom.
"What words would you believe in the middle of a fight?" his tail lashed in anger, claws ripping at the earth.
"And what would it change? Would you betray your leader, on the words of a rogue?" his hackles raised, and he stalked slightly to the side, eyes calculating and stead despite his quivering body.
"If I knew one of my cats had killed a young cat in cold blood, they wouldn't be part of this clan. Although, those are just the words of a rogue." Shadowstar shook his head slightly, wanting nothing more than to put his claws at the other cats, but resisting the urge, knowing he had to be careful.

~~~Setting Event~~~
While the day was quite cloudy during the morning, dark clouds seem to be moving forward, a cold front moving in and the scent of changing weather on the horizon. The sun is blotted out, and the forest has grown a bit darker due to this. Light droplets of rain have started to fall.

"Don't fear the night, for it's the only time you can see the stars."

As the deputy held back on his attack, Shadowstar felt a fury well up in his chest. No, this cat was not going to get off that easily. they blamed them, drew their blood, all while they may have had something to do with the death of one of their own cats. He didn't know why, perhaps it was his rogue history, or the pure energy of the cats tussling around them. With a hiss he lunged forward, his lean figure allowing for his speed as he tried to throw his weight into the opposite cat, front paws extended, back slightly thrown of as the earth grew damp and slick.
"Then go! Flee. But you will get no forgiveness from me this day." he growled, the weeks of fury building up into this, feeling as if he was going against every code he had ever learned. Yet, there was no code for leading. No lexperience that told him what he should or shouldn't be doing. Jaws lashed forward to bite, not caring where he aimed just wanting to send the tom away.

Midnightsnow|Duskclan Warrior|32 Moons Old|Black and White Tom|Location- Camp|Mention- Shadowstar, Sunfall

Although still worried for his leader Midnightsnow was glad to see that the black tom was not seriously injured. Proudly standing side beside his leader he scanned the battlefield. There was blood everywhere and yowls could be heard in the air all around him.
He suddenly felt Shadowstar crashing into his slim figure. Digging his claws into the dirt Midnightsnow staggered tried to hold himself and Shadowstar up. Looking over he spotted Sunfall on top of his leader wailing on him. "Shadowstar!" He leaped to Shadowstars side ready to tear the Dawnclan deputies ear off, but just as he came close to them he noticed Sunfall resheathing his claws as Shadowstar was trying to talk the deputy down. Keeping his claws sheathed Midnightsnow moved closer. With disbelief he listened to what Sunfall was saying.
He was even more surprised when, his usual calm, leader attacked the tabby tom. Coming up beside the black tom Midnightsnow pressed his side against his leaders, if Shadowstar was going to fight there was no way Midnightsnow would let him do it by himself. His leader was a fierce fighter, but it was always good to have a cat next to you to cover your back.
