Mintwhisper - 33 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Territory - Mentions: Rainpaw, Doefall, Tatteredjaw, Birchheart, Open!

Mintwhisper backed down and turned to Rainpaw slowly shaking her head. “I can’t say for sure Rainpaw.... but I don’t believe they’re here for our benefit.” She paused, trying to think of what to say next that might support her thoughts. “After all why would these cats come during a drought and just before Aetherclan and Terraclan join together to find water.” It seemed almost too opportune when the red warrior thought about it. She then seemed to notice how frazzled her clanmates were, she probably looked to be in the same state. “Are you both okay, Tatteredjaw, Rainpaw?” She didn’t expect them to be 100% they did just have quite the encounter.

The white speckled she-cat started a quiet purr, trying to reassure and calm both her and her companions. It was by no means strong or happy, more tampered with nerves but it helped at least a little bit for her. Her ears rose and flicked about, trying to listen to any sound in the forest. She heard pawsteps coming closer and whipped around to see Birchheart coming toward them. She would be lying if she said that the deputy hadn’t scared her a bit with the sudden entrance.

Hearing Birchheart speak Mintwhisper look doubiously at the undead cat, forest and then back at her deputy. “I don’t think it wise for a cat to be alone right now Birchheart, but if you need space I can go out of earshot. Maybe see if there are anymore zombie cats roaming around here.” She nodded to Tatteredjaw and Birchheart, shooting a smile at Rainpaw, before trotting into the undergrowth. Staying near to where her clanmates were but just out of earshot.

Owlpaw - 7 Moons - Apprentice- Healthy - Apprentice Den - Mentions: @ Open

The bobtailed tom splintered his eyes open for a brief moment. He felt blood flow returned to his limbs correctly but drowsiness ebbed at his muscles. How long was his nap, he wondered. His dazed eyes looked around him for any sure signs of Rainpaw or any other apprentices. His heart felt numbed in this matter and a drowning sensation blew into his mind. Taking a stiff paw and lavishing it with his sand paper tongue then wiping it over his faced with its arched circumference as in washing his face.

A yawn escalated from his yawns, letting his spiked tongue stretch over his small canines. Feeling his bulk shutter from his limbs returning for duty, his bobbed appendage tufted under his bulk majority of the time, and it grew stiff from not moving it in some time. Shaking his pelt roughly to rid of his ridiculous nest debris, he casually swayed his way over to the entrance. He wouldn't mind settling eyes on a familiar face if he could.

Oakpaw - 11 moons - Medicine Cat Apprentice - Healthy - Camp - Mentions: Terrastar (ID), Owlpaw, open!

Oakpaw stretched luxuriously in his nest before getting to his paws in the medicine cat den, looking at his neat piles of herbs surrounding him. He hadn't had the position for long, but he was learning quickly, and he found a lot of what he learned was common sense - at least to him. A commotion had interrupted his beauty sleep, however, and he pushed his way out of the den to take a look at what was going on. The weather was miserable, of course. But something more than that caught his attention. As he looked around camp, Dark Forest cats seemed to be rising from the dead, and in addition to that, were moaning about a supposed attack from the other Clan on Terrastar. As he watched the odd, confusing sight before him, his long fur started to bristle. The young tom had heard much about the Dark Forest before, but he had never seen a real cat from there. Terrastar always said to him that the Dark Forest was a place of power, and there was nothing that thrilled the apprentice more. Still, seeing it in the flesh certainly unnerved him a little. Noticing Owlpaw neaby, he padded hurriedly over to the other apprentice and nudged him. "You seeing what I'm seeing?"

Owlpaw - 7 Moons - Apprentice- Healthy - Apprentice Den - Mentions: @ Owlpaw, Open

Owlpaw felt a nudge despite his vision was momentarily impaired for he had his eyes closed adjusting to the brighter light. He looked in the direction of the nudge to find Oakpaw was next to him with worry stiffening his features. To recall the question asked, he seemed a bit confused unless he recanted the early scene From Terrastar’s den. He then followed the medicine cat apprentice’s gaze to engulf the shadowy view of Dark Forest cats unearthing from the invisible depths. His throat turned dry forcing him to swallow with more effort. “ I do. “ he replied.

His nerves were starting to feel uneasy and shivers started to gnaw at his bobbed tip. What was this talk about assault? His heart started to raise. He had his suspicions about Aetherclan from the start but ... “What are they talking about Oakpaw?” He mewed hoarsely.

Tatteredjaw - 39 Moons - Warrior - Minor Burns (Treated) - Territory - Mentions; Mintwhisper, Birchheart, Rainpaw, Dark Forest cats ID

The scarred warrior swallowed thickly, trying to calm her heartbeat. "Thank you, Mintwhisper. Be careful, these creatures... They are not of this world." She said, her voice low and cautious. She didn't understand why these cats were coming back, but she didn't like it, especially when they approached such precious members of their clan spreading such strange rumors.

Tatteredjaw stood up straight, looking back at Rainpaw with a protective gaze. "Did that thing hurt you, Rainpaw?" She asked, fur bristling. She couldn't help but want to keep the apprentice safe, especially after she'd proven herself so valuable to the clan. Her eyes wandered to Birchheart, body tense and on end, she was impressed at how her friend, now deputy, was able to stand up so fearlessly to a cat that was literally decaying right in front of their eyes. She looked down once more, realizing that she needed to be more brave in situations like this.

Stonekit-1.7 moon-kit-healthy-Terraclan territory- mentions:

Stonekit dodged through the trees, fear making him run faster than he'd ever run before. He couldn't hear that he had left the undead far behind over the sound of his paws hitting the earth. He ran, and ran, he knew if he stopped running he wouldn't be able to run anymore. He was breathing heavily, when your running for your life you exert yourself much more than when you have the zoomies... He pushed himself straight through a bramble bush, leaving small tufts of fur on the thorns he couldn't dodge. His pelt pricked and disheveled, smelling of onions and dust, he tumbled to a halt in front of a tree.
He collapsed to the ground. He looked around, he was very lost. He couldn't even smell any scents he knew, there were no AetherClan scents at all...

Mintwhisper - 33 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Territory - Mentions: Stonekit, Open!

Mintwhisper patrolled the area, pausing every so often and going in a large circle. She considered going to camp but decided not to as she had said that she was going to stay near her clanmates. She raised to head to scent the air, opening her mouth slightly to help distinguish each one. The forest around her was thicker compared to the rest, more bramble bushes clomped about. Her ears twitched, were those tiny paws she heard? A strange scent entered her senses, a bit further down the path. The speckled warrior edged closer silently, wary of what she might find.

As she got closer she distinguished the scent as one of a cat, Aetherclan perhaps? It certainly smelled like it, and faintly of milk too..... Mintwhisper grew worried, her pace quickening. She stopped in front of a large tree, the sound of small breathing coming from behind it. “Hello?” She meowed softly, slowly making her way around the trunk as to not startle the kit. “Hi there. Are you alright little one? You look a bit lost.” She kept her voice soft and didn’t immediately go towards the kit, not wanting it to run off. Her mint green eyes held sympathy for the young cat.

Sootheart - 13 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Camp - Mentions: Open


Sootheart smacks another skeleton away, tired and humiliated that she is sitting here fighting undead dinner instead of doing something productive. The skele-prey seem to get tired of reassembling and run off to cause mischief somewhere else. Sootheart holds her head up in silent pride. And stay out! The grey warrior peeks inside the nursery to make sure Cherryblaze and her kits were alright. She smiles at Cloverkit and Firekit before leaving to see how else she can help her new home. Life out here is definitely more exciting than life with Twolegs, that's for sure.

Rainpaw - 12 Moons - Apprentice - Healthy - Territory - Mentions: Tatteredjaw

“I’m alright,” Rainpaw said to Tatteredjaw, a bit shaken, “That was strange, wasn’t it? I wonder if it’s a sign from Starclan...”

Looking around, she noticed that Mintwhisper had taken off, most likely to look for other cats needing of assistance. Mintwhisper was capable; she’d be fine.

“I guess we should be headed back to camp,” Rainpaw mewed, jokingly adding, “Or we’ll miss my warrior ceremony.”

She considered picked up the prey she had caught previously, but it had bits of the dead cat’s blackened ooze on it. She decided not to risk illness and left it. She looked back at the strange cat’s body. Her silky white fur was inturupted by a long scar down her flank, similar to Rainpaw’s. Large blue eyes were wide and unseeing as the white cat continued to murmur things that didn’t make any sense, almost like a prophecy. A terrible prophecy.

Stonefell - 21 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Camp - Mentions: Risingstorm, Terrastar ID, OPEN

As the sneering Dark Forest cat dissipated before her eyes, the faint scent of ash and blood wafted over Stonefell's face. She let out the breath she didn't realize she was holding. Would he have killed her had he not disappeared? The icy cold fear in her gut churned at the thought.

But that didn't matter now.

Turning to Risingstorm, the petrified shecat steeled her gaze and stood tall. "Something isn't right. We need to go to the border. Now." She commanded, her voice low so that only the grey tom could hear. Glancing over her shoulder, Stonefell's ears flicked back. There were still quite a few undead cats roaming the camp...

"On second thought," she meowed, "remain here. Protect the camp. I'll go help Terrastar."

Addermask - 36 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Camp - Mentions: Oakpaw, Owlpaw, Risingstorm, Sootheart, Stonefell, Terrastar ID, OPEN

If possible, Addermask’s fur bristled even further when the undead cat before him disappeared into nothingness. He nearly yowled in surprise, but it stayed caught in his throat and he swallowed hard. More undead cats were still around camp, but at least the one threatening Stonefell was gone.

“Should I come with you, to find Terrastar?” Addermask asked the she-cat, unsure.

He doubted she’d want him to come if she didn’t want Risingstorm to come, but he still had to ask. Terrastar had been the one to so graciously accept the tomcat into the new clan, finally letting the Aetherclan outcast’s son become a warrior. He wanted to make sure their leader was okay, that Aetherclan wasn’t really plotting something awful, but he knew there were scared apprentices in camp too, like Oakpaw and Owlpaw, and Sootheart alone was defending the nursery. He began to look around camp, wondering if there was something they could use to corner the undead cats into one place, away from the weakest of the clan, or a way to lead them away.

Stonefell - 21 moons - Warrior - Healthy - Camp - Mentions: Risingstorm, Addermask, Terrastar ID, Ratpelt ID, Mintwhisper ID, OPEN

Stonefell's nub tail twitched anxiously behind her as she scrutinized the tabby tom. In a way, he was just like her—an outcast that owed Terrastar their life. Sniffing absentmindedly, Stonefell shifted her gaze around camp. She knew Ratpelt and Mintwhisper were MIA at the moment, so she could only hope that her fellow clanmates where already on their way to helping Terrastar. But she had to be certain.

"No, Addermask," Stonefell finally replied, her tone swift and sure. "You remain here with Risingstorm and protect the camp. When I return, it will be with our leader."

And at that, the small grey shecat turned tail and trotted out of camp with purpose. The icy feeling in her gut still remained.

Tatteredjaw nodded, licking Rainpaw's ear affectionately. "That would be a good idea. You did well, Terraclan is lucky to have a warrior like you." She said, looking over at Birchheart with a smile on her face. She looked at Stonefell and the others as they left, but payed no mind to it as they entered camp.

The scarred she-cat approached Risingstorm, fur standing on end. She was proud of Rainpaw, the apprentice showed great skill and deserved to be a warrior, but the undead cats were unnerving. She took in a breath, looking up at the warrior. "Greetings, Risingstorm. Do.. Do you have any idea what's going on?" Tatteredjaw asked, voice low and uneasy. She hoped the taller tom would know at least something about the current situation, but wouldn't be surprised if he didn't. Her gaze flickered over to Addermask for a moment, ears swiveling around as she listened for any suspicious sounds.
