Heatherstorm - Still in the fox den.
Heavily breathing, Heatherstorm made a run for the exit. She wanted desperately to thank Ptarmiganflight so much, but she was too out of breath, and a distraction in the middle of a battle between a heavily trained fighter and a large beast wasn't going to help anyone.
She lay down for a moment, until she heard a loud hiss and suddenly a flash of pelt leaped above her, Shatterpaw! You mouse-brain what are you doing? Seethed Heatherstorm silently. "Shatterpaw..." Was all she managed to murmur. There was a glowing darkness swallowing up Heatherstorm's vision. You can't fall asleep you can't fall asleep you can't fall... Asleep... And a second later, Heatherstorm had blacked out.

Ptarmiganflight (in the fox den with Heatherstorm and Shatterpaw) Nettle TheKeenGlint As Ptarmiganflight bit and clawed at the fox, putting to use all the moons of training she'd received as an apprentice, she noticed a blur of silver out of the corner of her eye. Shatterpaw! she thought, I thought I told her to get help, what's she doing here?! There was no time for further thought or to scold the apprentice, though, she had to focus on fighting the vicious fox and making sure Shatterpaw stayed safe. But she was tiring quickly and knew she wouldn't be able to keep this up much longer, this fight had to be finished, fast. She lashed out at the foxes eyes, but missed, and stumbled slightly to the side. Regaining her balance, she bunched her muscles and prepared to make a leap over the foxes head and onto its back. Minkstar (hunting with Frostpaw and Greywind) Junospower Hawkeyes258 Minkstar gave Frostpaw a nod of approval as he promptly got to his paws and followed them. She motioned with her tail for Greywind and Frostpaw to follow and led the way out of camp. " I think the Heather Fields would be a good place to hunt today." she meowed and led the patrol in the direction of the Heather Feilds. |

"Sounds good to me." Greywind replied. He didn't care where they went long as they were able to bring back some prey. He allows Frostpaw to go behind Minkstar before going right behind Frostpaw

Frostpaw inwardly was brimming with excitement. It was still far too soon for him to be a warrior, but any chance to show off his growing skills to his leader was an opportunity he was always ready to take. He followed in line behind Minkstar, his long white tabby coat fluffed up against the cold. At least good hunting would help keep him warm.

Heatherstorm - Escaped the Fox den. - Hawkeyes258 🐦silvermoon2🐦, Junospower, TheKeenGlintHeatherstorm was able to rather slowly regain her consciousness. She was gasping for breath, the blood los sinking into her. She looked behind her at the ongoing war. The fox was writhing under Ptarmiganflight, and Shatterpaw was attempting to find a good place to attack.
By now, she'd decided she couldn't let herself be useless, and quickly made a dash for camp.
She was slow, tired and weary, with every paw step a splitting ache through her find leg. As she walked, a trail of blood formed behind her, causing the snow to become a scarlet red. She groaned in pain, praying to Starclan she'd make it back.
"M-Minkstar? Greywind! P-please, help me, P-Ptarmiganflight an' Shatterpaw... Fox den... Fighting..." Heatherstorm quickly spotted the warriors, as well as Frostpaw, on their way out. Just then -With a loud gasp for breath- She collapsed, the blood loss had finally sunk in.

Shatterpaw — Fighting the Fox
Disregarding Ptarmiganflight's frustration, Shatterpaw's heart sank as Heatherstorm blacked out. Damnit, if only she had been a little bit faster... And yet she moved forward powered by every drop of adrenaline she could muster. Her grip held strong, the fox appearing to tire.
But she wasn't alone.
Ptarmiganflight, annoyed as she was at Shatterpaw's audacity, gave everything she had to the fight in spite of her exhaustion. Her attempt on its eyes failed, but with a magnificent leap that Shatterpaw could only hope to emulate at the warrior's age, she landed on the fox's back. Their enemy let out a pathetic yowl at Ptarmiganflight's weight. Shatterpaw, deciding to let go of the fox's leg, weaved her way over to face the fox head-on.
Heatherstorm had recovered enough strength to run. Good. As long as Flurryfoot acted fast, she would live to hunt again.
Shatterpaw made a quick swipe at the fox's cheek, leaving a light scratch, but it wasn't giving up so easily. Its eyes burning with feral rage, it lunged forward to bite. Shatterpaw tried to dodge its keen teeth, bobbing to the right.
A costly mistake.
As soon as it clicked that she'd gone the wrong way, a sharp throb burst in her right ear, both of them ringing as the fox bit down hard. Shatterpaw tried to hold back a scream, desperate to appear strong in front of Ptarmiganflight; she let slip a wretched growl of pain despite her best efforts.

Minkstar (hunting with Frostpaw and Greywind) Junospower Hawkeyes258 Nettle Minkstar gave Greywind a nod of acknowledgement and led the way toward the Heather Fields. As they were walking Minkstar suddenly heard a yowl of pain. Signaling with her tail for the patrol to halt, she pricked her ears to try and find out where the sound was coming from. " I think some cat's hurt," she meowed." Hunting can wait, we have to help this cat", she ordered, and broke into a run, going in the direction of the sound. Up ahead she spotted a dark shape huddled on the ground. " Heatherstorm!", she exclaimed in horror. Noticing the she-cat's terrible injuries, she added rapidly, " Frostpaw, get Flurryfoot, now!" Turning to Greywind, she meowed," Stay with Heatherstorm for now until Flurryfoot comes, and then follow my scent to the fox den." Minkstar knew there was no time to lose, so she whipped around in the direction of the yowls of battle, which she assumed must be Ptarmiganflight and Shatterpaw fighting the fox, and ran as fast as she could. Ptarmiganflight (fox den with Shatterpaw) TheKeenGlint Ptarmiganflight began pummeling her paws into the foxes back as hard as she could. The scent of blood filled the air until it was all she could scent. Then she heard Shatterpaw let out a yowl of pain, peering over the foxes head, she noticed the fox had its jaws firmly clamped on Shatterpaw's ear. With a roar of fury, she sank her teeth into the back of the fox's neck, hoping she was doing enough to make it let go of the apprentice.

Greywind: Hunting Patrol
Greywind looks down at the bloody she-cat in front of him. He could feel himself briefly panic on what to do before taking a deep breath. "You're going to be all right." He muttered in a low voice. "Stay with me it's going to be okay I promise."

Frostpaw hesitated, but only for a moment. He wanted to stay and help fight off whatever it was that was attacking the patrol. However, a direct order from his leader is a direct order. As fast as his legs could carry him, the white tabby tom broke into a sprint. It felt far too long to get back to camp, be eventually made it and immediately headed for Flurryfoot’s den.
“Flurryfoot! Flurryfoot come quick! A patrol’s being attack!” the young tom yowled as he arrived in front of the medicine cats’ den.

Flurryfoot (medicine cat's den with Frostpaw) Junospower" A patrol, Attacked?!" Flurryfoot exclaimed. " I'll come right away." Furryfoot rapidly began to gather the herbs he needed. " Frostpaw, carry some cobweb for me, thanks." he told the apprentice, laying a wad of cobweb at his paws. " Ok, lead the way," Flurryfoot meowed to Frostpaw once he had everything he needed.

Heatherstorm - With Greywind, Frostpaw and Flurryfoot. 🐦silvermoon2🐦 Hawkeyes258 , Junospower Heatherstorm felt as though she could sleep for a moon under Greywind's protection. She let out a slight murmur, hoping he'd understand she was trying to thank him dearly. He could almost hear the faint mewling of Flurryfoot and Frostpaw in the medicine den, but by then Heatherstorm had practically blacked out. Her leg felt numb, swollen with the ever-bleeding bite. She felt her eyelids grow heavy, and the soft pelt of Greywind brushing against her own.
Talking brought Heatherstorm to an awakening, she immediately scented the fresh herbs and poultice. The medicine den! Of course. She thought blankly. She shifted her weight, feeling leaf wrap on her leg. "Flurryfoot? Where's Greywind... Ptarmiganflight? Are they okay? What about Shatterpaw? You need to help them!" She began to sink back into the realization of the fox fight. Was it over? Had they won? Was Ptarmiganflight and Shatterpaw okay? Her mind whirled with questions, making Heatherstorm feel quite dizzy.

Ptarmiganflight (fox den with Shatterpaw) TheKeenGlint Ptarmiganflight began pummeling her paws into the foxes back as hard as she could. The scent of blood filled the air until it was all she could scent. Then she heard Shatterpaw let out a yowl of pain, peering over the foxes head, she noticed the fox had its jaws firmly clamped on Shatterpaw's ear. With a roar of fury, she sank her teeth into the back of the fox's neck, hoping she was doing enough to make it let go of the apprentice. Shatterpaw
Shatterpaw took a sharp intake of breath as the fox's teeth lifted away from her ear. The ache of pierced skin remained, and her ears continued to ring, but thanks to Ptarmiganflight's quick thinking, she was free.
But... just before she dealt that crucial blow, she could just about make out a faint roar. It couldn't have come from within the fox den, surely — their assailant was unaccompanied. The only other cat with her was Ptarmiganflight. If that noise came from her... Shatterpaw's heart sank. But there was no time to grovel over the consequences; if Heatherstorm had gone to call for help, hopefully they could push forward.
"Ptarmiganflight!" she yowled as she slashed her claws along the fox's exposed flank. "How long before we can kill this thing?"

Flurryfoot (medicine den with Frostpaw and Heatherstripe) Nettle JunospowerFlurryfoot felt a rush of relief as Heatherstorm woke up, she was going to be okay he was sure. In response to her fervent questions Flurryfoot meowed "I'm pretty sure they're still fighting the fox,and with Greywind and Minkstar to help I think they'll be able to manage it." "But there will be injuries so I'm going to go and help them, Frostpaw, stay here with Heatherstripe", he added. Flurryfoot gathered up the herbs he needed and raced out of camp. Ptarmiganflight (fox den with Shatterpaw) TheKeenGlintPtarmiganflight didn't think she and Shatterpaw could hold their own against the fox much longer, and was about to tell Shatterpaw to run when she heard a roar of rage. A jolt of panic shook her and she whipped her head around to see what had made the sound. Relief and gratitude flooded her as she noticed Minkstar and Greywind racing towards them. Minkstar (in the fox den with Greywind, Ptarmiganflight, and Shatterpaw)
Minkstar let out a roar of rage, feeling a fierce anger at what the fox was doing to her clanmates. She hurled herself at it and bit and clawed as hard as she could, a fierce satisfaction filled her as the fox let out a howl of pain.

Frostpaw nodded to the medicine cat and ran obediently over to his mentor. The clan deputy look tired and wobbly. The white tabby tom leaned himself against her, giving Heatherstorm support.
“C’mon Heatherstorm, nearly there,” he encouraged, taking slow steps as to not wear her out. A part of him wishes he could run to help the patrol instead of Flurryfoot, but how could he leave his mentor?

At first, Shatterpaw assumed Ptarmiganflight's shudder was because she had been hurt. StarClan's sake, how much trouble can one fox cause? It wasn't until the warrior turned around to investigate that Shatterpaw began to feel the vibration of pawsteps on the ground. When they grew louder, she leaned over past the tiring fox, and sure enough, help had arrived!
Minkstar's blue eyes blazed with a fury Shatterpaw had never seen before; just behind her, Greywind's distinctive paws thudded hard against the snow. Despite the pain, she let out a roar of triumph at the sight of them, cheering as Minkstar blindsided the fox and savaged it.

((God, I haven't been here in a while!! Sorry for the late response.))Heatherstorm, in the medicine den with Frostpaw (?) JunospowerBlankly, Heatherstorm sat up. At the second she shifted her weight, she felt as though her arm had been electrocuted and pelted with rocks. She thanked her apprentice for helping her to the medicine den. "Thanks, Frostpaw." She murmured. Slowly, she saw the desperation in the tom's eyes, and she realized he probably wanted to see the fox den. She sighed. "They'll be fine. Trust me. There's plenty of them now and with Flurryfoot they'll pull through. I have an idea," Heatherstorm pulled away from the nest, and hobbled into the clearing.She returned, a robin in her jaws. "Fetch some of the other apprentices and- If they're not doing anything -Ask them to prepare the warriors' on patrol a good nest and some prey. They'll be starved and tired, and they deserve it. I know it may seem as though it's a boring task, but you'll surely get into their good side of the mind if you do so, and I won't take any credit. Now, off with you." The plan seemed to spill out, as though Heatherstorm had never realized she'd been such a helpful cat outside of warrior and deputy duties. Perhaps it's why Minkstar chose her to be the deputy? Pushing her stupid and meaningless thoughts aside, she focused on praying that the patrol would pull out with at worst only a few minor injuries.Wait.She couldn't believe what she'd done! The deputy, supposedly a warrior that should be looked upon, had been wounded so badly that she had had to come back? What sort of role-model was she? She had to go back and help. She would be a terrible deputy otherwise. I'm coming, Minkstar, Ptarmiganflight and everyone else! Help is on the way!
(Again, sorry for the late response. I think last time I checked there weren't anything to work off so I stopped and then I got whirled into a hospital visit and Christmas. I'll be active more often now.)

Minkstar(in fox den with Ptarmiganflight, Shatterpaw, and Greywind) Hawkeyes258 TheKeenGlintWith the fox trying to shake Ptarmiganflight off of its back, Minkstar noticed it's neck unprotected. Seizing the opportunity, she leaped up and sank her teeth into its neck. The fox let out a roar of pain, and viciously tried to shake her off, but it was weakened and Minkstar was able to hold on. Eventually the fox collapsed to the ground, and Minkstar let go of it's neck, her shoulders sagging with relief at the realization it was dead. ( Nettle That's totally fine, I understand!

Heatherstorm - Being an idiot at the fox den. 🐦silvermoon2🐦 TheKeenGlint Hawkeyes258After working her way through the frost-tipped ferns, she managed to safely arrive at the fox den. Her leg ached all the way, of course, but she was too determined to let it stop her.
After a while of trekking and a few short breaks, she arrived at where the war had taken place.
The fox was dead.
She jumped at the sight of it, blood still oozing from the fresh wound. She glanced from it to the warriors, who were all panting heavily. She bent her head, sniffing the dead creature. "It's not dead just yet," She announced, ignoring the glares she was assumably getting considering she'd been knocked out after her leg was attacked by the same beast. She cleared her throat, trying to break the deafening silence. "Shall we get going?"

After some time, he turned around to see Heatherstorm standing in front of them. He quickly walks over to her. "What are you doing?! You should be in the medicine cat's den!"

Heatherstorm - Talking to Greywind at the Fox Den. Hawkeyes258 🐦silvermoon2🐦 TheKeenGlint"The medicine den? No, I simple couldn't be there! Not when my clanmates were fighting a fox. While you Were fighting the fox." She purred, looking at him with endlessly sorrowful eyes. How could she let him fight, how could she have let any of them fight, while their deputy was injured? That was not what Minkstar made her deputy for! She should have been battling harder than any of them, but instead she was laying in the medicine den, doing nothing! She sighed, and looking away, she mewed, "especially since this was all my fault."

Shatterpaw — Enter Heatherstorm
While the fox's cries of pain were somewhat quieter than they should be, Shatterpaw recognised them well enough, and the thump of its furry body against the ground was all she needed to confirm Minkstar's kill.
"Yes!" she cried, marvelling at Minkstar's display of might. "That's how it's done!"
But another rumble of unsteady footsteps on the floor signalled the arrival of Heatherstorm, her pointed, short pelt sprinting into view and leaping to-
Wait... Heatherstorm? Didn't she retreat to camp for treatment? Surely her injury wouldn't have healed that fast... Shatterpaw tilted her head at the sight, watching the deputy lean down to confirm the fox's state.
When Shatterpaw just about heard the news that the fox wasn't dead, she bristled her tail in frustration, lashing it about as she padded over to see for herself
"What do you mean, it's not dead yet?! Minkstar just bit its neck like it was freshkill, and you're telling me it's not dead?" A quick glance in Heatherstorm's general direction. "More to the point, you're supposed to be getting that leg seen to!"
All the while, the ringing in her ears grew louder and louder, and the world around her tilted. Subtly so, yes, but without intervention...

Heatherstorm - In the fox den. TheKeenGlint Hawkeyes258 To put it in all honesty, Heatherstorm became aware there would never be a true reason for her appearance. She should have been healing. She looked around, as she began to become more and more aware that all eyes were on her. Narrowing her eyes on her paws, she had to come up with an excuse. "Yes, well, I was feeling a lot better, and I thought I could be some use, but well, look at the time. The fox is done. Best we get going." She turned her head to leave, but she knew she wouldn't get away with it so discreetly.
🐦silvermoon2🐦
After entering camp, she immediately tried for a quick and easy escape to her den. But she knew she'd have to make a stop to see Flurryfoot before she could sleep in the warriors' den again. She wasn't that mouse-brained.
As she entered the quiet den, she let out a call, "hello?" and just let it echo for a response.

Minkstar (heading to camp with Heatherstorm, Shatterpaw, Ptarmiganflight, and Greywind) Nettle Hawkeyes258 TheKeenGlint Minkstar led the battered patrol back to camp. " All of you head to the medicine den right away once we get back to camp, "Minkstar ordered the patrol, she wanted to make sure all of their injuries were tended to as soon as possible. " I will call a clan meeting once we get back to let the rest of the clan know what happened", she added. " And you", she meowed to Heatherstorm, noticing her severe injuries. " I don't know what you were thinking, charging back into battle with such injuries, thankfully you weren't injured any worse. Do as Flurryfoot tells you and get as much rest as you need, that is an order,' Minkstar admonished her. She hadn't meant to sound so harsh, Heatherstorm was a good deputy, but warriors should know their limits and certainly not go into battle when they were so badly injured. Ptarmiganflight(heading to camp with Minkstar, Shatterpaw, Greywind, and Heatherstorm) Ptarmiganflight felt as if her paws would collapse under her with exhaustion. She could only manage a slight nod in response to her leader's order. The sooner they got back to camp, the better. Flurryfoot (medicine den, with Shatterpaw, Heatherstorm, Greywind, and Ptarmiganflight)Flurryfoot heard a commotion in camp and smelled the scents of the fox patrol returning to camp. Heatherstorm was the first to enter his den. His first instinct was to scold her for leaving the den and fighting the fox injured and he meowed "You shouldn't have left to go off fighting the fox again, you could have been killed." But his gentle demeanor kicked in and he found it hard to scold her anymore, he motioned with his tail for her to get into one of the nests. (Sorry for the late replies, I will try to post more regularly now)
