(Okay.)
Shadowpelt still didn't understand what Bogfeather was talking about. "If you need some time to yourself, I can leave you alone," she said.

Blacknose sniffed proudly, flicking a final weed from his claw and onto his pile, which he had worked on diligently all yesterday and this morning to clear through. Most of the mess in this area were clear, but glancing to across camp, he could already see a muddle of twigs, sprouts, entanglements. That was very well then, he decided. As much as he'd like to relax, his duty as a warrior he knew had to be placed first. With a small huff, he padded towards the other part of camp and began working.
Viperstripe moved her way through the bog, jumping over stray branches, her paws slick with mud. As she arrived into camp, she promptly dropped a decent sized lizard into the pile before sauntering off into a shady corner to groom her ruffled pelt.

Thimblestar turned to face the new comers. More New comers? He thought. He padded up to the two. "Hello! I am Thimblestar, leader of Thimbleclan. What are your names."
Falconwing thought quickly. "Um...How do you like clan life so far?"
Bogfeather shook her head "No, Shadowpelt, you need to know this. Look, I made a deal with a pack of foxes. I said that if I could join their camp then they would attack our camp. I of course said yes...And now they are coming tonight." Bogfeather looked at Shadowpelt "Do you understand now? I thought that If I joined their pack I would finally feel wanted..."

"It it's good. I like being with other cats."Rosebriar said.

Falconwing nodded. "Yea, me too. So uh...What else do you want to talk about?..."

"Umm I can't think of anyyhing." Rosebriar said as she leaned down to pull out another weed.

"Yes," Shadowpelt answered. She wanted to help Bogfeather, but she didn't know how.

Thimblestar was still cleaning out the camp.
"Uh...Do you have any siblings" Falconwing asked.
Bogfeather hissed. "You still don't understand do you? We could all die tonight!!"

"None that are still alive. They all died when they were kits. I couldn't help them" she said as she tried to tug at a stubborn weed.

Shadowpelt looked at Bogfeather, beginning to feel concerned about her. "Should we tell Thimblestar about this?" she asked.

Blacknose noticed Thistlestar's approach and quickly dipped his head respectfully. "Ah, Blacknose. That's Viperstripe." He flashed a glance towards Viperstripe who was sitting peacefully on a log, her paws dangling. "I hope it's no trouble that you have us here." He said, whiskers twitching.
Viperstripe flicked in ear in acknowledgment, her amber eyes watching the two.

Thimblestar shook his head. 'Oh, no trouble! No trouble at all! We always welcome new comers to the clan!"
Falconwing bowed his head in sorrow. "Oh..I'm so sorry...I didn't mean anything by it. I had a sibling once, his name was Emberthorn but he died in a fire...He was a good brother." Falconwing looked at her, "I hope that we are all like siblings to you."
Bogfeather dipped her head. "I don't know...We probably should..." Bogfeather said sadly.

"Maybe we should grab Pineclaw and head back to camp," Shadowpelt said, turning her head towards the marshy area which her friend had wandered off to.

"Yes,we should do that. Go grab Pineclaw!" Bogfeather replied.

Shadowpelt hurried off into the marshy area, catching her friend's scent. She followed the scent trail, hoping that she would come across Pineclaw soon.
Pineclaw wandered around, hoping to stumble upon at least one of the other cats soon. This place is huge, he thought to himself, grumbling through the fur of the squirrel.

Bogfeather dipped her head. "I don't know...We probably should..." Bogfeather said sadly. Blacknose nodded and then tilted his head. "Is there anything else you'd have me do?" He said, his tail flicking about. "I've been working on clearing the camp, but I am up for anything else." Viperstripe, feeling restless, propped off the log and grabbed a small lizard from the pile. She wandered off into a nice little corner and hunched over, savoring its chewy taste. Lizards were her favorite afterall.

"Not quite siblings but close family I guess you could say." Rosebriar laughed.

Thimblestar thought. "You go on a patrol? Just a regular patrol, not a hunting one. You, Viperstripe, and Rosebriar can go. Sound good?"
Falconwing laughed with her. "Yes, perhaps that..."
Bogfeather searched for Pineclaw with Shadowpelt.

Shadowpelt turned around to see Bogfeather following her. "I found Pineclaw's scent trail," she said, before turning back to the scent trail which she was following.
Suddenly, Pineclaw heard a voice. He turned towards the source of the voice, which he recognized as his friend's. Thank goodness! he thought, heading in the direction of the voice.
Pineclaw found his friend, Shadowpelt, with Bogfeather. They were probably just standing here talking he whole time, he thought to himself, noticing that neither Shadowpelt nor Bogfeather was carrying any prey.

"Yeah." Rosebriar said to Falconwing trailing off a little at the end in slight discomfort.

Thimblestar waited for a reply.
Falconwing noticed her discomfort. "What's wrong? Did I say something?" He hoped he hadn't say anything to hurt her.
Bogfeather saw Pineclaw's pelt break out of the brush. She rushed over to him. "Look, we need to get back to the camp. NOW." She said in a hurry.

Pineclaw wondered if the patrol had found anything dangerous that needed to be discussed with Thimblestar, but decided to stay silent about his concern. Pineclaw simply nodded, not saying a word.

"No I'm just not comfortable around others." Rosebriar explained.

Thimblestar waited for a reply.
Falconwing nodded. "Oh...If that's the case I should go then I guess..." He said ducking his head.
Bogfeather was glad that Pineclaw didn't make a fuss about it. Bogfeather and the others broke into camp and dashed over to Thimblestar. "Thimblestar...The foxes...Are coming...Tonight..." Bogfeather panted.

"another it's fine I'm starting to get used to you being around." Rosebriar said beating herself up inside. He's being nice to you don't hurt him.

Pineclaw followed closely behind the others as they raced to camp, the squirrel dangling from his jaws. As they arrived in camp, Pineclaw decided he would listen to what the others had to report before dropping his squirrel on the fresh-kill pile.
Pineclaw listened as Bogfeather was speaking. Foxes? he wondered. He had never seen a fox before, but he had heard that they were dangerous. This is why I should have stayed at the Twolegplace, he thought to himself, remembering the warm, safe den that he stayed in with his Twolegs.

Thimblestar gasped in terror when he heard what Bogfeather had said. "What?! Foxes?! Where?!" He yowled in terror.
Falconwing felt like his heart was being crushed in two. He knew this wasn't going well....He made a small, sad whine as he turned tail and ran for his den. He curled up once he was inside it. He whined to himself. It was true, he had feelings for Rosebriar, but well....Their conversation didn't go well...
Bogfeather hissed to silence him. "Look, Foxes are coming to attack the camp tonight so we have to stop clearing the camp. We have to gather as many thistles as we can and set a barrier up." She turned to Shadowpelt and Pineclaw, "Sound good to you guys too?

"Oh." Rosebriar frowned she didnt mean to make Falconwing feel bad she just wasnt comfortable with anyone quite yet.

Shadowpelt understood what Bogfeather had meant. Nodding in agreement, she replied, "Okay." Shadowpelt turned her head towards Thimblestar, wondering what the tom would say.
-
Pineclaw was mildly curious as to how Bogfeather had the knowledge of foxes attacking at the specific time and location of that night at ThimbleClan's camp, though he assumed she might just be worried. Not saying a word, the tom kept his gaze on Thimblestar, wondering how the leader would respond.

Thimblestar hissed to himself. Who was she to give orders? But he replied calmly. "Ok, that sound good. Lets get moving right away!" Thimblestar said before he ran off to grab as many thistles as he could.
Falconwing drifted into a deep sleep.
Bogfeather nodded and did the same as Thimblestar.
