Flowerbreeze nodded and the two she-cats ran out of camp. "They may stand a chance of chasing it off with us two." Mothstripe said hopefully, confident because she was probably one of the largest cats in ThymeClan. "I say we stall for time." Flowerbreeze said. They reached the clearing to see the fox looming over Thymestar. Mothstripe attacked forward, leaping at the fox's back, while Flowerbreeze snuck around below trying to swipe at the fox's underbelly.

Mothstripe saw the opportunity and grabbed onto the fox's back with all of her claws, trying to hold the fox on its side where its underbelly would stay exposed. Flowerbreeze, quick and lithe, batted away the fox's paws and went right for its underbelly, trying to draw blood mercilessly with both her claws and teeth.

Mothstripe huffed as she got up, wincing a little at a few claws that were wrenched in the fox's escape. Flowerbreeze chased the fox, and Mothstripe caught up to her quickly. They stopped at a distance, watching the collapsed fox. "Let's keep an eye on it so we know where it is, or so it doesn't try anything else." Mothstripe said, Flowerbreeze just nodded and padded back into the clearing to check on Wovensight and Thymestar. Mother Dark Zz

Thymestar was panting hard he tried to get up but couldnt. He was getting weaker by thr second. He felt heavy. "I'm losing a life." He whimpered raspily.

(you could make a section on the front page for StarClan cats and put Thymestar there (and any other cats who die))
Flowerbreeze looked concerned. "Mothstripe! Forget the fox, we need to get Thymestar and Wovensight back to camp!" she called. Mothstripe gave one last hiss at the fox before running back. She pulled Thymestar by the scruff, and with Flowerbreeze's help lifted the leader onto her back. Mothstripe started towards camp while Flowerbreeze went to nudge Wovensight. "Can you walk?" she asked the warrior.

(Geez. Everyone is rping like crazy while I'm bored at work xD Oh well, guess I'm here now.)
Icewhisper had retreated to her den earlier, deciding that looking through her herbs to see if some had to be thrown out was better then pacing about all day. She was nearly done when Sakura suddenly appeared at the entrance. Icewhisper stepped out of her den, not knowing what she was needed for but she had quickly grabbed some cobwebs and some goldenrod and marigold just in case. She raced over to the two cats that had just arrived. Once she got there she took one glance at Elmsong and then at Asterpaw. She muttered to herself as she sniffed Asterpaw's leg and then the wound on Elmsong's neck. To Irisheart she meowed "Clean that wound first." She set aside some cobwebs for Elmsong before she turned her attention to Asterpaw again to clean the bite wound on his leg. "It may hurt but it will be worse if we risk an infection," she apologized. "I'll see what I can do about your leg but we'll have to stop the bleeding first." As she said this she glanced at Elmsong and Irisheart to see if she could put some cobwebs on Elmsong's wound now. Weaselkit and Wolfkit were still playing when Elmsong arrived with Asterpaw. Before any of them had time to grasp the situation Ferrettail called for them. Foxkit raced over to his mother, soon followed by his siblings. "What's going on?" Whispered Foxkit. Next to him Weaselkit kept glancing in the direction of Elmsong and Asterpaw. Darkclaw was about to leave camp but upon seeing Elmsong arrive with Asterpaw he froze. Then, his shocked expression turned into a snarl. A fox had attacked his clanmates and some of them were still fighting against it. That creature wouldn't get away with this! He looked around to see if anyone decided to lead a patrol to fight the fox off. Then he bounded over to Sakura, followed by Adderheart who, while calmer than Darkclaw, was just as determined as him to fight off the fox. Silverpaw let out a soft whimper as he heard about the fox, worried about his clanmates who were still fighting it. He raced over to Elmsong and Asterpaw and crouched down beside his fellow apprentice. Rainsong lashed his tail and made his way towards the entrance. "Some of us will guard the camp while you help the others," he meowed to Sakura and the cats who were joining her patrol. "But send someone to get us when the fox turnes out to be too dangerous for you all."

Sakura whisked her tail as she saw Darkclaw and Adderheart pad over to join her and nodded to Rainsong, "Ok, Mothstripe and Flowerbreeze left to help Thymestar and Wovensight already, so I think them, plus the three of us, should be alright." She glanced at Asterpaw and Elmsong once again before racing through the entrance and following the scent trail of Mothstripe and Flowerbreeze.
Rapid lay panting beside a tree, sure that the cats had let her go. She turned her head to lick at the wounds on her side. Then, after a few moments of rest, she stood up and wandered back to the clearing, hoping to find something to eat.

Darkclaw and Adderheart ran alongside Sakura, ready to drive off the fox. Or to kill it if it became necessary. Maybe the fox would flee once they arrived but Darkclaw wasn't exactly willing to let it leave Thymeclan territory alive. Not with what it had done to his clanmates. Adderheart kept looking around as she ran, hoping to either see the fox or Mothstripe and Flowerbreeze first.

Asterpaw groaned as Icewhisper cleaned his leg. The pain was so intense that he almost fainted. He looked over and saw Silverpaw, a fellow apprentice, sitting next to him. He gave a slight purr at the sight of his friend and then layed back down. As he opened his eyes a few minutes later he turned his head to see Weaselkit and Foxkit staring at him in horror. He whimpered imagining what it must be like for the young cats to be seeing this. “This wasn’t exactly how I thought this would go....” he murmured, unsure if any cat could hear him.
Ok I’m back and ready to rp!)

Mothstripe was slowly trying to carry Thymestar back to camp on her back. She perked up when she saw Darkclaw running towards her. "How many cats are coming? We scared the fox away but we need help getting Thymestar and Wovensight back to camp." She explained to the tom. Irisheart started lapping at the wound on Elmsong's neck, trying to clean away the blood vainly. Elmsong rested his head on his paws and watched Icewhisper working on Asterpaw. He looked relieved hearing more cats leaving camp to help Wovensight and Thymestar. "Is Asterpaw doing alright?" he asked, looking up at the medicine cat again. Yarrowfur had been awake in his nest for a while but lifted his head when he heard commotion outside about the fox attack, and several other warriors leaving the den. He winced as he rose from his nest shakily, but he felt less tired after a night's sleep. He padded outside the den and sat off to the side, blinking in the bright morning light, then watched Icewhisper looking after an injured apprentice. How bad was the fox attack? he worried.

"We watched the fox, it collapsed out in the forest. It's injured and tired. I think we should get everyone back into camp as soon as possible. If the fox does come back the camp entrance is a better position to defend and we'll have all our warriors there to fight it-" Mothstripe explained to Sakura, but was cut off when the fox returned. Mothstripe turned to run towards camp, wanting to get Thymestar to the medicine cat quickly.

Icewhisper carefully wrapped up Asterpaw's leg with cobwebs, then she took another look at Elmsong, deciding to use some marigold juice for him, hoping that it and the cobwebs would at least slow the bleeding enough. As she did so she meowed "I think he'll live, if that's what you're asking," she meowed. She glanced at Asterpaw before she continued her treatment of Elmsong. "His leg doesn't look to good, though. I'll do what I can but there's no guarantee what it will heal properly," she told Elmsong and Irisheart more quietly. While she wouldn't lie about it and Asterpaw deserved to know she would rather take one closer look and tell him later.
(I'm writing this while having another tab open so I can double-check medicine cat stuff. It's a mix of "Heck yes, I actually remembered that" and "Oh, so that's what this is for" xD)
Silverpaw eyed Icewhisper, Elmsong and Irisheart suspiciously. Whatever the medicine cat told the warriors, it couldn't be good if she had to do so quietly. Not sure if he could reassure Asterpaw he just stayed silent but he moved closer to Asterpaw to show that, despite his silence, he did care. Adderheart came to a halt behind Sakura and Darkclaw, the latter was staring at Thymestar and Wovensight. At Sakura's suggestion she nodded. "We'll see if the fox is still around. We can't let it find our camp," she said. No sooner had she spoken these words she heard some rustling nearby. She whipped around just in time to see the fox running towards them. Adderheart ducked out of the way but winced when the fox's teeth grazed her. "Get Thymestar out of here! Now!" Yowled Darkclaw, moving quickly so he stood between the fox and his clanmates. He stood up on his hind legs to rake his claws across the fox's muzzle

Asterpaw winced as he heard what Icewhisper said. ‘Wait, does that mean I won’t be able to be a warrior?’ He thought sadly. He looked over at Silverpaw and gave a slight nod. “I’m going to be ok..” he said quietly as he rested his tail on his shoulder.

Irisheart moved so that Icewhisper could work on her brother's neck, while giving Asterpaw's leg a tentative sniff. She didn't say anything but silently she was worried whether or not Asterpaw would be able to finish his warriors training if it didn't heal properly. "Can't you splint it, reset the bone? It's the bone that is broken or...?" she asked. Elmsong mumbled something before closing his eyes.

Wovensight hadn't realized how bad he had hit his bad and with the blood loss from his wounds he was getting weaker, his vision swimming as he fought to stay awake. "Need to... get rid of the fox. The kits and Snowdapple. They need to be kept safe."

"There are other warriors here now to take care of the fox." Flowerbreeze tried to get the dizzy warrior to stand up. "You're too hurt to fight, we're taking you back to camp. Icewhisper will take a look at your head."

"To camp?" The tom managed to stand but his balance was off and he almost fell before actually getting his paws under him, but just barely.

Flowerbreeze held him up and let him lean on her, leading him away from the fox which was now attacking the new patrol of cats. "We need to hurry." she said. "Push through it, you can lay down and rest once we reach camp."

(Ugh. Sorry for not posting much. Kinda tired today and some pain in my mouth from my visit to the dentist today keeps bothering me.)
Adderheart jumped forward, swiped at the fox's flank and hopped back so the fox wouldn't get her. She kept dashing in and out the fox's reach, clawing at it every time she got close to it. When the fox fell on its side Adderheart yowled and leapt forward, raking her claws across the beast's flank.
Darkclaw stumbled back when the fox managed to swipe at him but at almost the same moment the fox fell, giving the cats the perfect opportunity to strike. He tried to grab the fox's neck with his teeth.
(Yikes. Even this took forever because I kept making typos. Anyway, I'll try to post my other replies first thing in the morning, between 2 AM and 5 AM EST))

(( oh gosh. It was kind of hard for me to read all these and follow correctly so please tell me if my post contradicts with anything going on. I decided to just throw night with the group who had went to fight already ))
Nightwhisker had been about to fetch Silverpaw for yet another hunting lesson when the injured cats burst into camp. He quickly bounded over to find out what happened, listening to Elmsong as the warrior gave an explanation. He quickly began giving our orders. "While Icewhisper tends to Asterpaw I need some cats to come with me and help Thymestar with the fox." He glanced around quickly, studying the cats who had gathered around the commotion. Several warriors seemed willing to go fight the fox, and even the outsider who had been brought into camp the day before. What was her name again, Sakura? He didn't have time to think about it. "Adderheart, Darkclaw, come with me. Palepaw, you can come as well." He was already padding towards the forest. He glanced over his shoulder at Silverpaw, who seemed to be providing Asterpaw some support, so with a silent nod towards his apprentice he confirmed that he would not be accompanying him. While it would have served as a great training opportunity, he didn't want to have to spend the time worrying about his clumsy apprentice. He also didn't order Sakura to go, though it seemed she was joining them anyway. It was honestly a bit admirable that she was coming. Perhaps she really was willing to fight for the clan, while he had been questioning the newcomer's loyalty. He was soon racing through the forest with the small patrol and soon found the patrol of cats. The fox was gone but he hardly had time to reacty before it returned for another round. He didn't waste anytime to leap into the action, jumping onto the fox's back with an angry yowl and sinking his teeth into the back of it's neck.
Honeypaw and Palepaw both rushed from their den into camp when they heard the commotion. Palepaw stood up straighter when he heard Nightwhisker ordering him to join the patrol to help the cats fighting and quickly nodded as he went to stand beside the deputy. Wovensight is battling the fox. It's right that I go help them. He thought, quickly running after the others as they raced from camp. He was proud that he was able to keep up with the warriors, running through the forest at full speed, and soon they reached the site of the fox attack. He instantly rushed to his mentors side, eyes widening as he saw the blood and wounds. Flowerbreeze was helping him stand and he pressed against the opposite side. "Wovensight, are you alright?" He asked, concerned.
Honeypaw crouched beside Asterpaw's side opposite of Silverpaw. She was obviously concerned for her denmate, shifting nervously as she watched the medicine cat speak to the warriors. What were they discussing? She glanced at the fellow apprentices and gently gave Asterpaw's ear a lick. "Of course you'll be fine, you're as strong as any warrior." She purred softly before stepping back a bit to give the cats some room to tend to his wound.

Darkclaw bit the fox harder while also trying his best to avoid being grabbed by it. Even now the fox refused to give in but Darkclaw could tell it was getting weaker. If they kept at it they might be able to kill the fox. Adderheart stepped back for a second when the fox tried to claw at her with its back legs but jumped forward to claw at it again as Sakura landed on its back legs. Hopefully the fox couldn't last much longer, with four cats attacking it relentlessly. Icewhisper nodded at Irisheart. "It's just the bone from what I can tell. But even if I can help it heal properly it will take some time. It would still affect him since he can't use that leg for a while but with some exercises I could try and minimize that." She turned to Asterpaw. "I'll have to keep you in my den for a while. You might fall behind in your training but if you're willing to work with me you still have a chance at becoming a warrior." While there was no guarantee for it, as Asterpaw's injury seemed to be a more complicated case, she still wanted to give him some hope. If he gave up on becoming a warrior right now and wasn't willing to do the exercises she would give him once he was ready then there really would be no chance for him. She turned to Silverpaw. "Go and find a stick or two," she told him. Then she went through the herbs she had brought and placed some poppy seeds in front of Asterpaw. "I won't give you too much but that's enough to ease the pain." While she waited for Silverpaw she took another look at Elmsong.
(So... have you decided on whether you kill off Elm or not?)
Silverpaw slowly got up to his paws so he wouldn't accidentally hurt Asterpaw next to him. "I'll be right back," he meowed to him and raced off to do as Icewhisper had told him. It didn't take him long and he was back, dropping the sticks between Asterpaw and Icewhisper. (Alright, logging off now. I'll try to be online around the usual thyme, 3 pm est)

Asterpaw purred at the sight of Honeypaw. Even if she wasn’t kin she still did care about him, and that was enough. However, his hopes dropped after he heard Icewhisper. ‘Not becoming a warrior? .....’ he thought. “I’ll do whatever it takes.....” he said silently as he rolled his head backwards trying to relax.

(I'm still waiting on Darkriver's opinion)
Irisheart nodded, moving to sit next to Elmsong again, crouching beside him. She nudged him to check if he was still awake but he was unconscious, breathing slowly. Irisheart watched the wound bleeding through the cobwebs. "How long does it take for the cobwebs and herbs to work?" She looked up at Icewhisper, not really having the faintest idea of how they were meant to work.
