"Ok, sounds good to me." Tumble smiled.

Swirlheart nodded her head looking at her mate flicking her ears turning to look back at the nest letting out a soft breath.
(Uh are we doing the kitting or no? I feel like its early but maybe shock or surprise sends her into early kitting?)

(Yup! Works for me! Maybe a dog gets too close for comfort before a twoleg calls it away and it starts the kitting?)
Goldberry gave a humored chuckle. "Our place is big, but has alot of stuff. You can only touch certain things...the feather piles are off limits." He warned, though it was a gentle one. Feathers were really important to him and he liked them in perfect piles.

Tumble tilted his head at Goldberry's instructions. "Ok, why are they off limits?"

"They're in a specific order. I...er, it's a trait I was born with, I'm very keen on tiny tiny details and making sure the things I collect are in perfect order." Goldberry explained. "It would dishearten me to see the piles mixed up."

"Hey, no worries, I won't touch them," Tumble shrugged.

Swirlheart looked at him flicking her ears smiling softly keeping near Goldberry.

(Shall we have a dog appear sniffing around the twolegnest, a small fight, and then start the kitting? That's when North and them can find the twolegnest.)

Sure ) Swirlheart was resting now within the soft nest she felt better knowing there was more then one cat here but she was still on edge.

Tumble was exploring the whole nest, but he kept clear of the feathers Goldberry talked about. Multiple times he would call out "Oh look at this!" or "That's weird" clearly displaying the young cat's curiosity

Goldberry smiled as he watched Tumble, looking lovingly at Swirlheart.
Then, he tensed violently and widened his eyes, hearing a clear bark from outside the far wall of the den. A dog. And not a small one. It was trying to find a way in, clearly scenting cat. Goldberry ordered sharply.
"Swirlheart, go to the upper level. Now. Tumble, go with her. And hide wherever a strong scent is, to hide your own scent." He trembled a bit.

Tumble perked up sharply hearing the dog's bark, his short fur instantly standing on end, but at Goldberry's order, he ran up to the higher level.

Swirlheart tensed her ears pinned back hearing the dog, "Tumble go now second level," she mewed though keeping her voice low the she-cats belly hung a bit lower then it normally was. The queen was shaking a bit.

"You too!" Goldberry ordered Swirlheart desperately. He couldn't risk the kits, or Swirlheart herself. He choked. "I'll lead it away, but you have to protect yourself and the kits!" He ordered.
The dog gave a deep growl and chilling barks, beginning to clamber around the nest for an entrance.

Swirlheart looked at him, "Im...im not letting you fight the dog alone. Im sure we can hide together and not be spotted," she looked at him desperately wanting him to be with her and to stay safe she couldn't lose him.

Goldberry was about to reply, only to gasp as the dog thrusted its large head in the entrance. He shouted. "G-go! Up, now!" He bristled violently, giving a furious hiss at the barking and snapping dog as it began pushing into the twolegnest.

Swirlheart let out a low hiss her eyes opening wide in shock and fear not wanting to leave him but she had to think of her unborn kits.

The dog finally burst through. Goldberry gave Swirlheart one firm push towards the stairs, before he gave a shrill cry and darted to the side, the dog scrambling towards him with violent barks. Teeth snapped towards the curled-eared tom, who quickly remembered everything Scorchfire ever taught him. He had to keep Swirlheart safe.
He gave a pained shout as teeth jabbed into his leg. With a yank, he pulled free and sent a flurry of clawed slams to the dog's muzzle with his other paw.

Tumble was up in the hidden highest places. HIs eyes were wide as he looked down upon the dog, his fuzzy fur spiked with fear and back arched.

Spiderfang kicked dirty water from her paws, scowling darkly. She hated every inch of this nightmare, already having fur tangles from filthy puddles. She had even seen a twoleg down a long alleyway, and wanted to leave. But she kept quiet and hopeful for Goldberry and Swirlheart. She looked at Cliffheart and Northstar.

Northstar was vigilantly listening for any signs of their clanmates. She gotten tired of asking cats for directions and help when all they started doing was either running away or responding with hostility.
Cliffheart's fur crawled with uneasiness as they continued through the twoleggedplace. I'll be happy if I never return here again, he thought to himself.

Swirlheart screeched her entire body cowering in fear as she moved up the stairs a bit only to stop not wanting to go to far. She maybe a queen but she was still a warrior.

Goldberry tried to see past the dog to see if Swirlheart had gone with Tumble. He nimbly dodged a heavy paw from the dog, but gave a loud yelp as he was then grabbed by the scruff, shaken, then tossed roughly to the ground. Blood matted his scruff, and he gasped as he was forced to painfully roll away when the dog tried to snap teeth at him. Oh Starclan. Was this going to be his last day?
Spiderfang sighed, but was relieved to see trees nearby. She mewed. "We've looked alot...Northstar, do you suppose maybe they're not here?..." She drooped a bit, looking at the trees with searching eyes.

"Sh," Northstar silenced Spiderfang swiftly, stopping the patrol with a flick of her tail. "Do you hear that?"
"Sounds like a dog," Cliffheart replied. "We've heard plenty of them around here."
"it also sounds like someone's in trouble," Northstar replied, she turned toward the sound. "Come on!"

Swirlheart looked at him her eyes opened wide in shock she couldn't lose her mate. Her ears flattened oh starclan they wouldn't take him away from her...not like this! They wouldn't leave her alone! Panic ran through her body as she felt a ripple of pain running through her body.

Spiderfang ran after her leader, heart racing lightly as she readied herself for a fight, as she always did. She saw an old twolegnest appear through the trees. Goldberry panted, dodging with his mentor's skilled teaching, yet not able to get a good window to run much. He could only fight and hope the dog slipped up. His angry growls began turning to pained shouts as the dog got some hits in, before giving a rather brutal bite to the tom's shoulder. Blood welled up, and the former warrior stumbled and yanked away, beginning to sway in exhaustion. Scorchfire's training was good, but a dog was much harder to fight. He realized then that he could truly die. He'd leave his mate alone, and he felt his eyes burn with tearful regret and bravery.

Northstar let out a battle cry as she raced into the twoleggednest. Seeing Goldberry hit the ground, her ears fell back and her teeth bared with fury. quickly put herself between the tom and the dog hissing ferociously.
When Cliffheart saw the dog, he resorted to his SkyClan skills. Making a powerful leap to sink his claws into its back.
