Moonpaw pelted across the open moors. Certainly not use to the soft grasses of it all. He was careful to watch for rabbit holes in the dime lighting of the night.
The ShadowClan apprentice scented the air. It was heavy with cats, the camp couldn't be far, now!
The silverly tom finally reached his destination, the WindClan camp! He got only a few tail lengths in the camp before he noticed the warriors sleeping in the open.
"WindClan cats! Do not fear! We come with warning!" he yowled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mosseyes sleepily awoke. She looked to the camp entrance to see what it was.
ShadowClan!
The tabby she-cat scrambled to her feet. Were they under attack? And their first attacker was an apprentice? But, she knew better than to under estimate ShadowClan. This apprentice was large and looked muscular.
"What is it that you want?" she hissed.

Amberstar was sleeping under the watch of StarClan. She breathed rhythmically, in a deep sleep. ShadowClan walked in her dreams. A warrior shouted, and ShadowClan was in their midst. Suddenly, the stench of the swamp cats overwhelmed her. The crisp air of WindClan was tainted with the odor.
Amberstar's eyes flew open, and her pupils became dilated as she sprang into action. She saw Mosseyes hissing at an unfamiliar apprentice, that... smelled! Adrenaline was pumped throughout the leader's body. She sprinted to the scene. The ShadowClan cat was an apprentice, but well built. He would be a fair match for my warriors... she thought.
Once the calico got closer, she recognized the intruder. It was Moonpaw, that filth Swiftfang's apprentice. "Moonpaw!" Amberstar growled in her powerful, deep voice. "What are you doing trespassing on WindClan territory?!"
Amberstar was clearly angry. Everything about her appearance seemed hostile.

"I-I have come with a warning from ShadowClan." Moonpaw shakily mewed.
Where are Loosetongue and Foxheart? the apprentice thought, annoyed. It seemed sad that he could out run two warriors!

"A warning..." Amberstar growled. Crowstar wants to start war with us, I'm sure. Filthy rat-catchers... "Get on with it! You are still trespassing. We can't stay nice for too long when the warrior code is broken." The leader stared at the muscular apprentice, waiting for this oh-so-important warning. Her amber eyes burned into the eyes of Moonpaw. Amberstar was showing clear aggression..

Moonpaw took in a deep breath.
"Our camp was just attacked by rogues, the same ones that attacked during the last Gathering. They killed some our Clanmates and in the end none of them died. Crowstar told us to warn the other Clans because the rogues might attack another Clan sometime in the future." he reported to the WindClan leader.
"These cats are merciless and were a whisker away from killing all of Serpentwing's kits." Moonpaw added.
The silvery tom hoped that WindClan wouldn't chase him out then and there. But, you never knew these days... Every since leaf bare thing in WindClan seemed.. different.

Nightsky watched quietly from she was sitting. Rogues attacking Shadowclan? She desperately wanted to know details. She especially wanted to know which warriors were killed.
Instead of speaking up, Nightsky just listened closely.

Foxheart pelted after Moonpaw, embarassed for taking so long. All the more reason she wasn't worthy for such a mission.
"Moonpaw is right," she hissed, annoyed that the WindClan cats didn't seem to believe them fully. "They killed several of our warriors. ShadowClan doesn't want such a loss to come over all of the Clans. These rogues were skilled, not just mangy cats who are so desperate and starved that they take on a full Clan. They were trained. They clearly have a leader. He killed one of our queens who had only just kitted. Please, believe us, and prepare for an attack!" she finished, fur bristling and eyes narrowed.

Moonpaw nodded. His eyes set on Amberstar, hoping she would believe them and not just run them off of the territory.
Though, the fact that the rogues were that skillful was still strange to the apprentice. Rogues were usually alone in the world, or that's what he had heard. It was strange that a group of them assembled for an attack. But, none of that really mattered. The only thing that mattered was if they were going to attacking all of the other Clans and ShadowClan, again.

Loosetongue hated himself. HE had tripped himself up while running and then gotten behind. He ran up behind Moonpaw and said, "it's true. Beware. We come with this warning. Heed it." he finished.

"What is this, a raid or a warning?" Mosseyes hissed as yet another ShadowClan cat popped up.
She wasn't too sure about all these ShadowClan cats. And their warning seemed a little played out. But, the wounds and blood on their pelt assured her that their warning was true.
The tabby she-cat padded up beside Amberstar. Wondering what she would do next. She had wanted to get back at ShadowClan for a while now. But, their warning seemed urgent and they seemed like they came in peace. But, then again, seemed was the keyword there.

Foxheart's pelt bristled, but she made no hostile movements.
"Listen to us," she pleaded, only the slightest hint of annoyance and malice in her voice. "We did not come to raid ThunderClan. Us three were sent by our leader to warn you. Two other groups have been ordered to warn the other Clans. We mean no harm, we aren't raiding, we aren't attacking! But if one of the Clans is wiped out, the Forest will be off balance! Think, Amberstar!" she finished with a desperate yowl. If WindClan didn't believe them, what would they tell Crowstar?

"Please listen, we are only trying to help. Besides why would be arrive to attack with three cats weary, bloody, and exhausted?" Loostongue said.

"He has a point." Nightsky murmured.
Shadowclan was mean and deceiving at times, but this warning seemed as true as it could be. These Shadowclan cats looked exhausted and their fur was plastered in blood.

Amberstar listened with open ears. They seemed serious enough.
"Thank you, ShadowClan, we heed your warning. We will look out for these rogues." Amberstar said, relaxing. "Your purpose here has been served. Please leave our territory, now."
She sat down, waiting.

"Would you like me to escort them to the border?" Nightsky asked her leader.
She had just one last question to ask these cats, but she didn't want her clan to hear it. She stood up, readying herself for her to escort them. Hopefully Amberstar would let her without suspecting anything.

"Yes, please do. Mosseyes, you too." Amberstar said. "Farewell Moonpaw, Loosetongue, Foxheart." She parted with the ShadowClan and WindClan cats to go back to sleep.

Nightsky sighed. Looks like she won't be able to ask them any questions without Mosseyes hearing them. She got up slowly and padded over to the Shadowclan cats. She looked over to Mosseyes, waiting.

Mosseyes joined looked at the ShadowClan cats. She still didn't trust them a bit. "It looks like you're all tired, so we'll walk to the border." she meowed. Lie, those cats couldn't keep up for their lives, but she had to be respectful."Are you ready?" she asked the ShadowClan cats.
"Come on, Nightsky." she called to her Clanmate.
~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~
Moonpaw dipped his head to Amberstar, well they didn't get ran off of the territory at least.
"We are fine." he growled to the deputy. He could never show any real weakness to a rival Clan, especially the weakest one. It was horrible that he would have to put up with those WindClan cats until they got to the border. Plus, he didn't feel right about that black one, Nightsky. It seemed that Stormcloud didn't associate with any cat, expect for her at the Gatherings. Not that he really cared about his Clanmate's social life, but he found it rather odd. |
