Sootwhisker lumbered into camp, his chest heaving. He had run straight to camp as soon as he saw the two cats get taken. His heavy paws and large build made him not the best cat for running, so he paused to catch his breath for a second before looking around camp, trying to see if Cedarstar or Cloudscar was there. “Sootwhisker, woah!” Lynxdapple noticed the younger warrior bolting into camp. His blue eyes were wide with confusion. “Is everything okay? What happened? Where’s your patrol?” He demanded.

Sootwhisker stared at Lynxdapple before gasping out, "Talltalon and Ravenpaw, they... they got taken by twolegs!" He paused again panting, "T-They got caught in some silver trap, I tried to get them out but it was too hard... Talltalon told me to run back before I got caught too... I-I don't know where Houndthroat is, I tried to call to him but he was out of earshot..." He looked back the the camp entrance in worry as he said the last part. He hoped he hadn't been taken away, too. Sunpaw glance up at the two warriors as she lay somewhat nearby washing her paws. She couldn't make out what they were saying, but she thought she heard her sister's name... She shrugged, that mouse-brain probably tried to cross the border or got stuck in a tree, she wouldn't be surprise if either of those things happened.

The small tom was soon joined by other warriors, who swarmed around at Sootwhisker’s announcement. “Twolegs have captured Talltalon and Ravenpaw?!” Burningpaw gasped, eyes wide with worry for her denmate and her uncle. “Starclan! What would Twolegs be doing out here in leafbare? We have to go save them!” Lionscorch exclaimed, muscles tensing with anxious tension.

Sunpaw immediately lept to her paws, and stared at the group of warriors as she registered what she just heard. "Ravenpaw got captured by twolegs?!" She cried, running over to Sootwhisker. "I-I need to get her back! We need to go get her right now!" Sootwhisker looked at the warriors surrounding him with worry. "I-I think the twolegs might know we're here." He said quietly. "The trap had some meat in it, and we are just about the only meat-eating animals here. A-Are Cedarstar and Cloudscar here?"

A-Are Cedarstar and Cloudscar here?" “Cloudscar’s on patrol.” Lionscorch answered with a solemn tone, his body itching to help Talltalon and Ravenpaw, especially with Sunpaw’s reaction making his heart ache. “Cedarstar must be around here somewhere.” “It’ll be okay, Sunpaw. Surely we can find them. We’re Shadowclan, we’ll always get the job done.” Burningpaw tried to console Sunpaw, her own chest quivering with worry.

"Well, I don't think we can do anything without them, so we'll have to wait a bit." Sootwhisker said. He was exhausted after his run across the territory and his throat was dry. "I need to get some rest, somebody get me when Cedarstar and Cloudscar come back."
Sunpaw flattened her ears tight against her head and started pacing, frantic with worry. She paused and looked at Burningpaw, fear in her eyes. "W-what if I never see her again?" Her voice quivered, and her heart twisted with worry.

Burningpaw looked at Sunpaw with deep sympathy, but the older she-cat rested her tail on her denmate’s shoulder, assuring her. “I know my uncle, he’s a big grump, but he’s also a fierce fighter with a very good intuition. He will do everything he can to keep your sister safe...We...we have to put trust in that, and that we’ll find a way to bring them home.”

Cedarstar padded out of the leaders den. He shook the moss from his fur, a flutter of anxiousness in his heart. Still the shadows of Northstar's den itched at the edge of his skin. Sleep only flirted with him throughout his time in the den. Often, he stared out of it, wishing to return to the days he laid in the warriors den with his clanmates. He lifted his gaze to look around the camp, tail flicking at the thought what he might face today.

Houndthroat is still out there, and I fear if he has been taken too.” The small tom fretted. Lionscorch turned and saw the leader, eyes wide with determination to help his clanmates.

"Cedarstar has to let me help look for her." She added, looking and Burningpaw again. "I-I know he'll probably only want to take warriors with him, but I won't be able to handle just sitting here and doing nothing."

She mewed. “Talltalon is my kin, as Ravenpaw is yours. We have to find them. Cedarstar’s here!” She looked over at the leader before mewing to Sunpaw. “We’ll ask him if he announces a search patrol.”

"What?!" Cedarstar started in surprise. He looked around the camp, noticing the unnerve in a few of the clanmates. With a flick of his tail, he looked at Lynxdapple. "Where is Sootwhisker now?"

"Where is Sootwhisker now?" “Seated to rest for a moment. He ran all the way back to report.” Lynxdapple mewed, turning quickly as he saw Lionscorch moving to retrieve the other tom. “Sootwhisker. Cedarstar is here, you must tell him what happened.” Lionscorch rushed to Sootwhisker’s side, nudging the exhausted warrior.

Sootwhisker got to his paws as Lionscorch nudged him. "They got caught in some twoleg trap, I tried to get them out but I couldn't do anything." He said, approaching Cedarstar. "Twolegs got them, almost immediately after they got trapped. I didn't see what direction they took them in, though. Houndthroat is still out there, I don't know if he got captured or not."
(Sorry for the rushed reply, I have to leave soon.)

Cedarstar flattened his ears. "Show me the place. Lynxdapple wake Scorchfire and come with us." Cedarstar started over to the camp entrance.

Cedarstar flattened his ears. "Show me the place. Lynxdapple wake Scorchfire and come with us." Cedarstar started over to the camp entrance. “Understood.” Lynxdapple nodded quickly, darting off to go fetch Scorchfire, weariness in his eyes. He stopped before the ginger tom, breathing out. “We’re going to search the area where Talltalon and Ravenpaw were taken.” Burningpaw quickly nudged Sunpaw, and called to Cedarstar. “Cedarstar! Please let Sunpaw and I join you. We’re very farmiliar with the scents of our kin, we want to help you.” She pleaded, eyes serious.

Scorchfire nodded and got up. "Of course."
Cedarstar shook his head. "No. The rest of us know their scents just as well, Burningpaw. We dont know if there are anymore twolegs in the area. You and Sunpaw will remain here."

“Please, Cedarstar. She’s my sister! I can’t just sit here and do nothing!” Sunpaw begged.

Scorchfire nodded and got up. "Of course." Cedarstar shook his head. "No. The rest of us know their scents just as well, Burningpaw. We dont know if there are anymore twolegs in the area. You and Sunpaw will remain here." Burningpaw’s ears flattened in angered dissapointment, and while she wanted to argue, she knew it would only waste time. She looked apologetically at Sunpaw, sympathetic of her plight. Her tail lashed with faint worry and irritation. Though, at Sunpaw’s pleading, the older apprentice did look back at her leader with agreement to her denmate. Lynxdapple returned to Cedarstar’s side, nodding to the leader. “Hopefully Houndthroat isn’t in danger either.” He mewed.

"You will remain here, Sunpaw." Cedarstar frowned at the apprentice. "Both of you." He looked at Sootwhisker, Lynxdapple and Scorchfire. "Lead the way, Sootwhisker."

"You will remain here, Sunpaw." Cedarstar frowned at the apprentice. "Both of you." He looked at Sootwhisker, Lynxdapple and Scorchfire. "Lead the way, Sootwhisker." Burningpaw shook her head lightly to Sunpaw, disappointed herself. A part of her worried that Cedarstar would never see her as capable, even if she was the oldest apprentice. She wanted to prove herself, but above all, she wanted to help find her uncle. She was his only kin in the clan, after all. No matter how Talltalon and Viperpool felt about eachother, Talltalon had always recognized Burningpaw as his niece. She watched the patrol leave, biting her tongue. Lynxdapple readied himself to go, saddened to know his clanmates had been captured by twolegs. How could they possibly track them, when they usually moved inside of lightning-fast monsters?

(Frozennnnn!)
Brittlefoot paced nervously as Cedarstar's patrol departed to investigate Talltalon and Ravenpaw's capture. He never really got along with the crabby tom, but he knew Talltalon was a dedicated and loyal warrior, who did not deserve such a fate. And certainly not his rambunctious apprentice. Brittlefoot liked Ravenpaw, and hoped she was okay. He looked around, wanting to talk to Shortcloud.

Shortcloud’s ears lay flat as she watched the commotion, tail twitching. She wanted to help, but hadn’t been picked to do so. Twolegs were frightening and unpredictable, and they could travel far in a short period of time. She didn’t want her Clanmates to be lost forever.

Twolegs were frightening and unpredictable, and they could travel far in a short period of time. She didn’t want her Clanmates to be lost forever. Brittlefoot hobbled up to his mate, noticing the look in her eyes and giving a hum of inward agreement. "Hey." He nudged her lightly. He swallowed, trying to sound assuring. "I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of this. We brought NorthStar back from being captured by Twolegs, surely we can do it again...ah, even if Grizzleyheart and NorthStar are gone and Closesky is an elder...I should stop now." He sighed dejectedly. He looked at her, mewing. "How do you think they got caught in the first place?.."

Shortcloud sighed. “We may need more reassurance than that.” She mewed. “I’m not sure. Ravenpaw’s always been rambunctious, hasn’t she? I hope she didn’t do anything reckless...”

What surprises me is that Talltalon was captured too. He's the least rambunctious cat I know. There's no way he'd get himself caught as easily as Ravenpaw would...unless he was trying to protect her." Brittlefoot's ears drooped with realization. That had to be it, he couldn't think of another reason. He looked at his mate and fretted. "Promise me the next time you go out that you'll be careful? I couldn't bear to have you taken away..." <iframe width="19.12" height="3.3" id="MoatPxIOPT0_83945930" scrolling="no" style="border-style: none; left: 15px; top: -5px; width: 19.12px; height: 3.3px; position: absolute; z-index: -9999;"></iframe> <iframe width="19.12" height="3.3" id="MoatPxIOPT0_30991420" scrolling="no" style="border-style: none; left: 900px; top: -5px; width: 19.12px; height: 3.3px; position: absolute; z-index: -9999;"></iframe> <iframe width="19.12" height="3.3" id="MoatPxIOPT0_56340693" scrolling="no" style="border-style: none; left: 15px; top: 105px; width: 19.12px; height: 3.3px; position: absolute; z-index: -9999;"></iframe> <iframe width="19.12" height="3.3" id="MoatPxIOPT0_61070408" scrolling="no" style="border-style: none; left: 900px; top: 105px; width: 19.12px; height: 3.3px; position: absolute; z-index: -9999;"></iframe>

“Of course!” The fur on Shortcloud’s neck rose at the idea of being picked up by a twoleg. “I’d never let that happen to me... or you, too.” She promised.

His frail legs shook a bit, as he mewed. “I don’t think I’d outrun them, not in this cold, anyway. And I know you’d always keep me safe.”
