(My bad. Did you need me for this? Or this exclusively for Storm? I'm just wondering if this requires Bramble to react since Storm got lost) (oh I was leaving it open either way! If Bramble felt like going looking for him and happened along to help that's good, or if Moon happened by and wanted Gregory to jump in that too! Or anyone rping cats nearby.)

(Well you see. It's like this. I was actually thinking maybe [1] I could just have Bramble help Storm fight the dog and get injured. From there I was gonna suggest that Gregory shows up and takes him to Shimmer's place to be tended by her Twolegs or something. And they meet then and she's maybe none too impressed with Bramble's apparent foolishness
Or [2] Shimmer could just meet Bramble like normal when he explores and Gregory could help Storm escape since he's so resourceful. I got an idea there too.
So whichever sounds more fun I'm game for. I was just gonna do option 2 but Jay threw a dog in the plot so I'm down to make things a little more interesting in another way)

(Lol, either one works for me. Is it Bramble that gets injured by the dog or Storm? If Bramble gets injured for Storm's sake, he'll have more points in impressing Shimmer.)

(Alrighty now. Stand-by. One dead injured Brambletalon coming up)
Brambletalon's ears pricked as he heard the unmistakable bark of a dog and the faint splinter of wood. Springing to his paws, he bound up to the top of the fence to investigate the surrounding area, amber eyes keen.
StarClan, don't let this be one of Storm's exploits, he thought, ever worried about his new apparent friend. He hadn't expected to become so endeared to the younger tom already but because he reminded him so much of his sister Autumnfall, he had grown fond of Storm. And having detected that Storm seemed determined to impress him in any way he could, he feared the tom's spunk and determination, though noble, had gotten the better of him. Catching prey or tracking a cat were much appreciated. But fighting a dog?
He lifted his nose to the air, picking up the faint scent of Storm from where he had departed some time ago. Leaping down from the fence, he followed the pathway through the two Twoleg dens, sprinting and making haste for the sound of the dog.

Storm raced through the back alleys as fast as his rapid heart would let him, fur standing on end as the large brown dog began snapping at his heels. He could barely think as he ran, twisting around a corner and closer towards the sounds of the thunderpath ahead. He watched in cold panic as several monsters roared by up ahead at the end of the alleyway.
It's the thunderpath or the dog! Storm realized, claws unsheathed and fur spiked madly in fear. He had gotten himself far enough from the savage canine to realize he was going to have to fight, and in an instant he asked himself what a warrior like Brambletalon would do?
Storm's claws scratched on the hard twoleg stone as he spun around, arching his back and spitting a warning to the approaching dog, growling in the base of his throat. The dog slowed as it came closer, growling and snapping as it edged towards the terrified cat before it. Storm's eyes burned and he took a swipe at the dog's nose as soon as it was close enough, not sure if he could figure another way out of this one.

Brambletalon was just rounding the corner into the back end of the alleyway when he spotted Storm and a massive brown dog slowly advancing on him.
Without hesitation, he bolted forward and leaped onto the dog's back, digging his claws into the dog and biting firmly its shoulder. In an instant, Brambletalon found himself slamming onto the cemented ground beneath as the dog reared its head to scruff him with its jaws and hurl him off. He ignored the pain jolting through him and raced to put himself in between the dog and Storm.
Even with his hackles raised and his back arched, the dog still dwarfed the large tom, but the warrior's resolve remained unbroken in spite of the throbbing pain coursing through him from the blow. Brambletalon let loose a snarl and engaged the dog once more, striking the dog's snout with a flurry of swipes in attempt to force the dog back. The dog shied back for a moment as Brambletalon pummeled it with his blows but soon reengaged, knocking him onto his back.
Now beneath the dog, Brambletalon continued to tussle with it, letting out a yowl between his hissing and spitting as the bite in his shoulder drew blood. Scratching the dog's underbelly with his hind-legs and forcing the dog's snout away with his front claws, he struggled to writhe himself free as it aimed to deliver a killing blow.
Fearing the dog might soon overpower him, he called out to Storm, urging him to flee while he wrestled with the dog, "Storm, run!"

Storm's heart skipped a beat when Brambletalon lunged at the dog, and he was frozen in shock for a moment as the fight ensued.
"Storm, run!"
Storm was frozen in place, barely able to breathe, let alone think as he heard Brambletalon's cry. He had never seen a dog this close, nor had he seen a warrior fight such a beast. He didn't know if Brambletalon could handle himself, he didn't know if the dog would stop till he was dead, but what he did know was that he would never leave a friend behind.
"NO!" Storm yowled, pouncing at the dog's back and sinking his teeth into it's side as hard as he could, digging in with all of his claws. His eyes burned with the ferocity to match even the dog's as he held on for dear life.
The dog yelped and snarled even louder, easily shaking the tiny cat off after a matter of heartbeats, but it was long enough to give Brambletalon an opening. Storm skidded across the ground but quickly pounced back to his paws, spitting back at the dog who had now turned his gaze on him.

Brambletalon heaved a deep breath as the dog's assault on him relented, rolling onto his feet to stand up again. Mustering his strength, he leaped onto the dog's back again, this time biting its ear. As he raked his claws across its back, the dog let out another cry and began to turn tail. Brambletalon released and leaped off the dog as it fled, but as he landed on the ground, he stumbled over his paws as the pain from the wound dealt to his right shoulder overwhelmed him.
Wincing, he tried to stand up more gingerly, hoping to alleviate some of the painful pressure that the tear in his flesh was exerting on his muscles. He tilted his head to inspect the wound, worried it might require medical attention. The wound looked deep but it was preferable to the alternative, as he was certain that the dog's continued assault would have very well killed him if not for Storm's intervention. That threat was now past, but another one potentially loomed. Although he lacked the medicinal expertise of Peachdapple and Aspenfall, he was sure this wound might need treatment. And in a place like this, he certainly couldn't risk an infection.
I need to find Gregory.

Storm's fur began to lay flat again as the dog vanished back to it's dwelling. He was still panting as he turned to check on Brambletalon. Oh no!
Storm stepped over to the warrior, sniffing at his shoulder gently. "Brambletalon... I'm so sorry! We've got to get you out of here... "

"You needn't worry about me," Brambletalon protested, trying to walk.
But the throbbing of his punctured shoulder was excruciating. A tingling sensation pulsated through his right leg as he tried to fight the weakness overcoming it and within moments, he slumped back down. He let out a cry of pain as he collapsed onto the wound, his injured shoulder evidently too weak to bear his weight.
Not wanting to aggravate it further, he simply sat up and laid there, licking the wound to keep it clean as blood trickled out. The painful sensation held for a moment, only to die down as the gentle strokes of his tongue soothed the wound. He gritted his teeth in frustration as he realized he couldn't force it so soon. Although it seemed a flesh wound, his shoulder would likely need adequate rest or he would risk causing irreparable damage straining himself.
He looked at Storm, hoping he hadn't been too badly injured in his attempt to help him fight the dog, "Are you alright, Storm?"

He looked at Storm, hoping he hadn't been too badly injured in his attempt to help him fight the dog, "Are you alright, Storm?" Storm had rushed forward to support Brambletalon on his way down, eyes clouded with worry. Despite a few stinging scrapes and small scratches he felt no immediate pains. "Am I alright? Look at you! I can't believe you did that..." The tabby laid down next to him for comfort, sniffing at his shoulder. "I don't know what to do... is there something I can do? I- I've never been hurt like that... " Storm felt horrible, flattening his ears in shame and pressing a little closer to the warrior. They both nearly died because he wasn't paying attention, and now he had no idea what to do. Brambletalon's shoulder wound didn't look lethal, but if he couldn't walk on it and the dog came back, they were both as good as dead.

"Well, certainly know how to find trouble, don't Thunder cat?"
Gregory was sitting up high, his tail flicking back and forth as he looked down on Brambletalon and Storm. He twitched his whiskers in light amusement. "Mighty, that looks bad and I could hear the fight from three alleys over. You warriors are all the same, huh? Selflessly jumping in to save the day?"

"Naturally," Brambletalon grimaced as he lifted his head to gaze at Gregory, "Though perhaps it is really Storm who saved me just now."
"Seems trouble has found me a lot sooner than you anticipated, hm?" he meowed, slightly amused. "But I honestly couldn't be happier to see you. As you can see, I'm in dire need of your assistance."
He slowly got to his paws, leaning on Storm for support. He tried to shift as much weight as he could onto the tom without overwhelming him. In the absence of a medicine cat, he found this moment to be a time in which he couldn't be more grateful for one. Never had he lacked appreciation for Peachdapple or Aspenfall before, but in his moment of anguish, he would've been especially thankful now.
"Is there someplace I can go to have this tended?" he asked.
