{{ These are the last two posts on the battle }} Iceberry saw her leader take on the larger fox, and the white she cat bristled, leaping forwards, clawing the canine with a vicious snarl as it backpedaled at Moss-Stars attack, hitting from behind. The russet creature whirled around, snapping its jaws, biting down on the she cats paw. She let out an angry yowl of pain, trying not to let her panic set in. The young warrior wasn't the most experienced with fighting other animals besides cats, this being her downfall. Moss-star unsheathed her claws at the alarming warning. She could see the grass moving up ahead and knew that it was too late to make a run for it. There were know big trees close by to escape up, and they couldn't outrun a pair of foxes in the open field. "Have no fear", she meowed to her clanmates just as the large creatures came into view. As soon as the foxes seen the cats they both growled and the biggest of the two, probably the male, barked at them before diving straight at Moss-star. The clan leader may have been old but she was a very seasoned warrior and she wasnt about to go down without a fight. Sliding out of the way the shecat hissed and raked her claws at the foxes face. She could feel the flesh tear beneath her claws and blood splattered her pelt. The scratch made the fox yelp and jerk its face back before diving into the group of cat jaws snapping ferociously.
Fallowleaf was on the outter edge of the group and when the male fox attacked Moss-star she was forced to focus on the smaller female fox which way trying to sneak its way to her side to attack. "Winterpaw, stand with me", She ordered as she faced the other fox growling like a creature from hell. Winterpaw came to Fallowleafs side and together they circled with the fox trying to figure out when the best time to attack was. Fallowleaf could hear small yelp from the other fox and apparently so did the fox they were facing. Just as the fox turned to see if its comrade was okay Fallowleaf leapt forwards and landed on the top of the foxes head. Biting down on and ear the she-cat sank her claw into its pelt balancing herself inbetween its ears at the back of its head. Growling she shook her head tearing the foxes ear to shreds as she tried to claw for its eyes.
Winterpaw watched at his clan-mate saw her opportunity to strike and before throwing himself at one of the foxes hind legs he sent a prayer up to Starclan for safety for all the cats in the battle.

Viperfang walked with Stormgaze out of the hollow and into the forest. The crisp night air made her shiver slightly but it also felt good to be up and moving. Her short brown tabby fur fluffed up against the slight breeze and her blue eyes looked to the tom. "I really wanna thank you for spending time with me, you've been more than a great friend and I couldn't do this without you", with that said she gave the tom a quick lick on the cheek making her affections for the tom obvious.

Viperfang paused a minute after Stormgaze had spoken. This tom wasnt the father of these kits but was more than willing to take on the role. A soft purr sounded in her throat and she took a step closer to him so that their pelts touched and she could feel his warmth. "I would like that", she meowed then winced slightly when the kits within her decided to start kicking up against her ribs. "From what it feels like these kits are going to be a handful and I could use all the help I can get", she meowed her voice light and happy as she spoke to him. "Here feel", she said and gesture with her tail for where she wanted him to touch. The kits were active and moving all over, it wouldn't be long now and they will be running around the hollow instead of in her belly.

FalconwingStormgaze purred softly when she pressed against his fur. The tom smiled and brushed against her softly. "I am willing to this, so the kits will have a father at least." Stormgaze blushed a bit and touched her belly with his tail feeling the kit's movement inside Viperfang. "They are so active you know.", purred the gray tom.

"Thank you Stormgaze this means so much to me", Viperfang purred and sat down next to him. The moonlight was shining down and it shimmered off of the small puddle to the left of them. It caused her to look up and when she did she saw multiple stars shoot across the sky. "Look!" she exclaimed with excitement.
Moss-star hissed at Iceberry, "We can take them", her pride not making her want to back down. Growling she dived at the fox right when Iceberry darted forwards to scratch at it. The leader slid under the fox while it was distracted and sliced upwards clawing the foxes belly the best she could. quickly turning back around she started to claw at the foxes hid leg. Her jaws then clamped on the leg and she chomped down tasting blood as it welled forth.

Falconwing"It is so beautiful Viperfang. I never seen this beautiful scene before.", confessed the gray tom as he twined tails with her. Stormgaze looked at the shooting stars and gave a sigh at the glance.

Fallowleaf became thankful of her long fur when the female fox went to bite her and only got a mouthful of fur. Taking her chance to be close to the foxes face she slashed out, one set of claws scoring over the russet creatures right eye. The fox instantly let her go howling in pain and shaking its head in distress. With the one eye wounded it took away from the foxes visiblity which was perfect for them. "Winterpaw, sneak around and attack it on its right side as I distract it", she instructed.
The white tom nodded and slinked around to the foxes right side. Together the two cats took turns making strikes against the fox pushing it back further and further towards the edge of their border. It wasnt long until the fox had taken enough of the beating and tucked tail and ran. Winterpaw felt victorious and together the two cats chased the fox until it crossed the border. The young tom was panting but his eyes glowed as they stopped a few tail lengths over the border. "We did it!", he exclaimed between breaths.
Fallowleaf let out a yowl of victory as she watched the fox fade away into the distance. "Come on lets help the others get rid of the other one", she meowed catching her breath. "You fought bravely", she praised as she looked at Winterpaw then without hesitating she led the way back to help her clanmates battle the other fox.
Viperfang sat with Stormgaze, tails twined together, and watched as many more stars streaked across the sky. "I wonder if its a sign from starclan...", she meowed curiously continuing to gaze upwards.

Falconwing"Me too Viperfang. I know if it is beautiful, then it is a good sign, perhaps.", purred the tom to the queen. Stormgaze smiled at the queen and smiled at her. He had this weird feeling inside him surging right now, but he did not know what it was.

The queens ice blue eyes blinked sleepily and she leaned her head onto the strong grey tom. "Why don't you join me in the nursery", Viperfang meowed before yawning to show her exhaustion. Giving Stormgazes shoulder a few caring rasps with her tongue she stood up and waited for him.
{{After the patrol fighting the foxes return to camp I will do a time skip about the equivalent of one week. }}

FalconwingStormgaze purred softly at her licks. "Yes, Viperfang. I will join you okay.", the gray tom purred softly to the queen giving her a lick on her nose. His gray fur brushed against Viperfang's beautiful pelt. Getting up, he smiled. "Tonight was a great night especially with you Viperfang.", confessed he warrior to the queen.

Winterpaw emerged from the tall grass in the small clearing where Moss-star, Oceanfeather, and Iceberry stood, Fallowleaf a step behind him. The white tom could see the fluffy white tail tip of the fox disappear as the three other warriors yowled in victory. "Fallowleaf and I chased the other one over the border. If those two have any sense they wouldn't dare show their faces on our territory again", he meowed informing Moss-star about the other fox.
Fallowleaf listened to what Winterpaw said and before Moss-star could reply the mottled brown and red she-cat stepped forwards hissing. "No, Moss-star if you had any sense you would have sent a proper battle patrol to drive the foxes out. Instead you risked our lives to get our paws dirty and then our pelts shredded. The clan is already questioning your leadership, and this mouse-brained act is the perfect excuse for them to over throw you!" The she-cats pelt was full of dirt and blood but it still managed to stand on end as she scolded the old she-cat, leader or not. Not waiting for a reply the she-cat took off at a brisk trot straight for camp.
Winterpaw was shocked at the usually soft spoken peaceful she-cat. However in his heart he knew that Fallowleaf was right. He gace a quick glance at Moss-star seeing her shocked expression and then turned and ran to catch up with Fallowleaf ready to be home, but to also show that he was on her side.
Moss-star was too shocked to say a word and she watched as Fallowleaf stormed off and was followed by Winterpaw. The old she-cat had a moment of clearity thank to Fallowleaf and she felt horrible for letting her pride cause her to put her clan in danger. She had been leader for so long and now for the first time she old light brown tabby she-cat was doubting herself.

I keep poofing!)
Oceanfeather knew she had been permanently scarred across the face by the foxes. There were three new scars slashing across the right side of her face, blood still welling up from them. No matter how many times she checked to see if blood had gotten into her eye, her right eye would still see things as fuzzy shapes. Oceanfeather was mostly blind in one eye now all thanks to Moss-star not bothering to send a bigger patrol instead of the small one she did. Oceanfeather was furious, she padded up to Moss-star, "Don't try to earn sympathy from other cats like Iceberry. That's pathetic. I hope you know that. But you might not, considering you pulled something this dumb. Risking our few lives rather than actually even considering a bigger patrol. Because of you, our borders are in probably in more danger than they were because all of us need to go to the medicine cat's den. I can hardly see out of one of my eyes now! And just remember that my partial blindness is your fault next time you see me around camp. Or anywhere for that matter!" She was panting hard, the reality that she was mostly blind in one eye was still sinking in, "I hope you get everything you deserve and more!" Oceanfeather hissed before running back to camp. She knew the forest by now and did not need perfect vision to know where camp was. When she did get through the enterance she decides to look for Cavegrowl. For what reason? She was not sure. But he seemed like he would listen to her right now unlike anyone else. She didn't even want to go to the medicine cat den, she knew there was nothing they could fix. "Cavegrowl!" She called

Stoneshadow let out a small purr at his apprentice. "No, you go to sleep. I'll get the mouse bile," he told her. The former warrior-turned-medicine cat hadn't quite told her where everything was now. Grabbing the mouse bile quickly, he padded over and dropped the moss soaked ball at the Warriors feet. "There." He mewed, placing the stick next to it as well.
Iceberry trembled as the other warrior stormed passed her, throwing the pale she cat off balance. She knew she was in pretty bad condition, and wasn't sure if she could make it all the way back to camp without help. perhaps if I just rest for a few moments... she thought, pausing and taking a slight detour. She took a right, limping towards a tree with large roots, and laid down, not realizing that she was dizzy until she settled on to the ground. Perhaps it was just walking on three legs instead of four

Moss-star was left alone and for the first time in a long time she felt very alone. No one was on her side anymore and she even questioned returning to camp. If she left right now the clan probably wouldn't even miss her and would continue on with Timberfall as their new leader. She almost decided to abandon them but shook her head and started the long trek back to camp. She would be shamed and hated from now on but she was not willing to abandon her clan whom she loved so much. Her pace was slow knowing that she wouldn't be getting there anytime soon.
Fallowleaf could see the entrance to the camps hollow just up ahead and limped forwards, Winterpaw shouldering her and keeping her steady. Halfway home the she-cats shoulders started to ache, and even though there was no outside would she could tell that it had been badly bruised in the fight. The sound of paw steps sounded behind them and they watched as Oceanbreeze shouldered past them and into the camp clearing.
Cavegrowl was laying next to Timberfall, the two toms had been speaking about the future of the clan while the patrol was away. When the black tabby tom heard his name being called he quickly sat up and looked around with the moonlight guiding his eyes. He found that it had come from Oceanbreeze and he rushed over to the she-cat. Before he reached her the scent of blood came to his nose and he suddenly became very worried for her. Reaching Oceanbreeze the tom noticed the score of claw marks across her face and he gasped. "What happened, are you okay?", he meowed his voice full of worry for the injured she-cat.
Timberfall rose to his paws when he watched Cavegrowl rush away to meet Oceanbreeze who had rushed into camp. The scent of blood hit his nose and he instantly assumed the worst. Rushing to the camp entrance he almost barreled into Fallowleaf and Winterpaw who was just emerging from the entrance tunnel. "What happened?! Where is Iceberry and Moss-star? Is everyone okay?", his questions bombarded the two cats as he backed up and let them through. "Everyone is alive, Moss-star and Iceberry are behind us. The foxes attacked our patrol and we barley won, but still managed to chase them off. If Moss-star has any sense she wouldn't come back after this stupid stunt", growled Fallowleaf still grumpy but more importantly tired. Timberfall watched as Winterpaw helped the feirce she-cat settle down outside the warriors den. "Why dont you go and alert Stoneshadow and Willowpaw", he meowed gently to Winterpaw and watched as the young tom went towards the medicine cats den. "Why didn't you guys flee? Your patrol wasn't big enough to take on two foxes?", The deputy questioned. "Because, Moss-star wouldn't let us, and told up to stand our ground and fight. That mouse-brianed old she-cat!", Fallowleaf hissed in reply. "Well rest now, Winterpaw will be right back with help for your wounds. I'll go see if I can find Iceberry to make sure she is okay", Not wanting to rile the angered she-cat anymore the deputy turned around and bounded out of camp. He followed the cats scents his eyes peeled for Iceberry and Moss-star. "Iceberry?", he called out when he noticed a mound of white fur in the moonlight settled inbetween the roots of a large tree right off the paths. Rushing forwards he nosed the pretty she-cat hoping for a reply, "Iceberry?", his deep meow was gentle and he waited for her to speak.
"I feel the same way", Viperfang meowed and together the two cats walked back into the hollow. There was tension in the air, the queen could feel it. "The patrol is back... what happened?", she questioned as she looked around the camp and then to Stormgaze.

Just as Willowpaw was going to turn around and retire into the medicine cats den, the sound of running paw steps hit her ears and she perked up. Turning she saw that it was her brother Winterpaw running towards them. "Our patrol was attacked by foxes, everyone is alive but we are all hurt pretty bad", the young tom informed and Willowpaw rushed forwards to examine her brother. "Where does it hurt?", she questioned as she nosed through the white toms pelt. "Just my left ear and my tail was bit", he replied. Willowpaw turned to her mentor. "I can take care of him and then I will come help you with the others", she meowed ad rushed back into the den without a reply to get was she needed to treat her brothers wounds with.

Stone shadow nodded, the dark tom assessing the wounded party, his dark eyes darkening with concern. "Ocean feather, let me see your eye. Cave growl, back up a little bit, give me some room." He grunted, gently pushing the tom out of the way to get a look at the she cats eye. It was badly damaged, and he didn't know if he could save it, if he was being honest with himself. "Come with me." He said, heading back to the den, glancing at Winterpaw briefly.
The white she cat opened her eyes, looking up at the warrior with drowsy eyes. "Timberfall?" She asked, eyes blurry. Her wounds still stung, and she wanted to go back to sleep, just for a little bit longer.

Cavegrowl glared at the medicine cat when he calmly shoved him aside, but the tom held his tongue and stepped out of the way. He knew the tom was only doing his job and he didn't dare interfere especially if he was trying to save Oceanbreeze. "I'll be waiting outside the den for you", he meowed to her knowing that he shouldn't be in the way and positioned himself outside of the medicine cats den, his dark amber eyes not leaving the she-cats pelt.
Timberfall was relieved when the she-cat replied to him but was worried by how weak she sounded. "Yes, its me sweet Iceberry. Come on, let me help you to your paws. We must get you to Stoneshadow and Willowpaw", he urged knowing that she needed desperate medical attention. His voice was soft with her and he pressed up against the she-cat to steady her and used his muzzle to help lift her to her paws. "Come on, you can do it. Camp is just up ahead", he added trying to encourage the beautiful warrior.

"You must see a medicine cat Iceberry, I cant loose you", Timberfall meowed desperately trying to get the she-cat to understand the importance of her surviving. Timberfall had crushed on Iceberry for a long time now and the shy tom never had the guts to express his feeling for the she-cat. Now when she was injured he wished that he had spoken his mind even sooner. Grabbing her by the scruff the large brown tom pulled the weak cat over his broad shoulders to where she was draping over her. "I'll carry you, just hang on", he meowed and he strongly headed back to camp.

"I'm okay, Timberfall." She insisted, but let him carry the she cat instead. The quiet she cat couldnt help but wonder why the deputy was being so affectionate all of a sudden. He had always been... reserved. Kind, but still reserved towards Iceberry. Even when he was an apprentice and she a kit. The small warrior let out a soft sigh, suddenly remembering her brother, Coldfire, trying to tell her that Timberfall had a crush on her... But that couldn't be true, right? Right? She felt a small pang in her chest, Coldfire had moved on to Starclan... A few moons back. From a fox attack. How ironic is that? The she cat let out a small, almost bitter laugh, shaking her head against Timberfalls fur.
