Only time will tell if we’re all just cynics on the run ####  Ravenstar turned her head as she heard Crowthroat speak. She admired her warrior's courage to speak up against ThunderClan. Perhaps it was to be expected of him. He was originally from ShadowClan, and the two Clans always had it out for each other for as long as she could remember. She could see the shadows forming around his paws. Her hackles raised as the ground began to shake. Expecting an attack, Ravenstar activated copycat and from shadows, but was relieved when Briarsong had calmed Lynxstar down slightly. Her clone vanished and she deactivated from shadows before flicking her ear.
She scoffed at Lynxstar's constant denial. "We'll take our warriors back with blood if we must. Everyone knows ThunderClan has always been the root of the problem when it came to Dark Elemental discrimination." She hissed.
"You have until the next gathering to return my warriors. If you don't, I'm afraid we will have to take them by force." She lashed her tail. If we’re all just cynics come undone |

Thorne Lynxstar sent a side glance over Ravenstar, before he rolled his eyes in contempt. "Typical "Darkclan", ordering others around as if they have the authority to." He turned his head towards the she-cat, looking her up and down. He got to his paws, staring her down as his tail swished behind him. "Thunderclan has been doing what we must do to keep the balance in the Valley. Dark Elementals are omens of death and bring nothing but sorrow, misery and anguish, and this is a prime example!" he shouted, using his tail to gesture around him. He locked eyes with Ravenstar, making up his mind. The she-cat was stubborn, that he could respect to some degree, but now it would only get her into trouble. "If it is a fight you truly want, then it is a fight you will get, Ravenstar. No more will your wicked and decietful ways plague Thunderclan." He spread his forepaws apart, setting himself in a defensive stance. Narrowing his eyes, he dug his claws into the ground. "I will not hold back but never will I be seen as cruel," he snarled. "So come at me!"

Briarsong
So all you restless
each night you hear the drums of war
awaken, awaken
the voice begins to call you while you hunger Briarsong's hackles raised in alarm as she watched Lynxstar prepare for battle against Ravenstar. She thought quickly and used shield, raising a small stone wall between the two leaders. She turned to face Lynxstar and stepped in front of her leader. Briarsong hated being against him, but ThunderClan's leadership system was clear; a deputy was to balance out the leader. And she needed to prevent a war on sacred soil.
"Fighting here will only make StarClan angry, Lynxstar. It's not worth making the situation worse, no matter how angry we ourselves are. We'll find our warriors and bring them home, I promise you, but fighting here and now is not the wisest choice. " She advised.
The tortoiseshell she-cat flicked her tail. "Besides, we're heavily outnumbered. ShadowClan will take her side because we're already at their throats about the fire. We must live to fight another day for our Clanmates." |

Jinx Thorne izumakoto Lynxstar let out a hiss as Briarsong put up a wall between him and Ravenstar, giving her a dark look as he listened to her speak. "There is no use delaying the inevitable, Briarsong." he said, dropping his voice from its usual booming tone. "We might as well get rid of them now, while we still have the chance." He shifted his gaze over to Duskstar and his own patrol. He curled his lip at the thought of fighting both Darkclan and Shadowclan, while his clan was weakened by... whoever was responsible for this whole mess. He may be stubborn, but he knew when a fight was a lost cause. Briarsong was right, they couldn't afford to fight now, where they could easily be defeated and what little respect the other clans had for Thunderclan lost. But, no matter how right Briarsong was, he still couldn't bring himself to back down from this fight. Darkclan needed to be taught a lesson, no matter what it came down to. Darkclan needed to be put in its place. His head snapped up in surprise as a plan hatched in his brain, the perfect solution to their problem. He looked up at Briarsong, his face in its usual scowl. He walked over to her and put his muzzle close to her her whispering, "Follow my lead." He stepped out from behind the rock wall, beckoning with his tail for Briarsong to follow. He looked from Ravenstar, over to Duskstar, then to Heatherstar. Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, he spoke. "Very well, Ravenstar." he said, his voice formal. "It seems that I cannot deter you from where your mind is set. So I will agree to your terms. Thunderclan will give you the Darkclan warriors we have taken prisoner before the next Gathering, on one condition." He stared Ravenstar straight in the eyes, as if daring her to make a move. "Darkclan must unally itself with Shadowclan. Shadowclan must pay for its crimes against Thunderclan and if Duskstar decides to bring in reinforcements from Darkclan, then our fight shall be unhonorable. Thunderclan seeks balance within the Valley, therefore we will not defeat two clans if only one needs to be punished. Those are my terms, Ravenstar. Are you willing to meet them?"

Spiderface had been recovering from the result of Lynxstar's anger while Ravenstar spoke. He was sure that Ravenstar knew what he was doing, that she knew how to get Lynxstar to back down for once in his self-entitled life. He stood by Ravenstar, looking to all of Thunderclan to show his support, daring any of them to object. He may be a medicine cat now, but he would still fight for his clan until the day he joined Starclan.
His hackles raised in alarm as Lynxstar braced himself for an attack, but he relaxed as Briarsong sent a rock wall between him and Ravenstar. He turned to Ravenstar to see her reaction, before he stepped close to her. "Lynxstar seems to want nothing more than a fight. He's nothing more than an unruly newly named warrior. We'll get our warriors back, don't worry, Ravenstar." he said, giving her a reassuring nod.
He turned his attention back to Lynxstar as he stepped back out from behind the wall. He looked like an apprentice being forced to apologize, so he made a point to remind himself to thank Briarsong when the opportunity arose. He listened to Lynxstar speak, feeling a surge of justice in his chest, when he admitted to taking the warriors. He knew that tom was a liar! It was a wonder how he was made leader, actually.
His eyes widened as Lynxstar stated his conditions, barely holding back a hiss but keeping an impassive face. Lynxstar was smart, he'd begrudingly give the tom that. But unally themselves with Shadowclan? It made sense he supposed, not everyone in Darkclan would want to be so close to Shadowclan once he, Tawnylight and Ravenstar were long gone. But Shadowclan had done so much for them, they couldn't just leave them because some stuck-up foxheart had told them to.
He looked to Ravenstar, anxious to see her response.

Crowthroat
so all you restless
each night you hear the drums of war Crowthroat barred his teeth as Lynxstar spoke. Break off their alliance with ShadowClan? DarkClan lived on part of their territory for StarClan's sake! Following his demands was incredibly foolish. If Duskstar didn't keep a level head, things would end badly for DarkClan. They were easily outnumbered if ShadowClan decided to take this as an act of war against them, especially with missing clanmates. With Tawnylight missing, Crowthroat took it upon himself to advise Ravenstar in her place. He felt as if they had a strong enough relationship for her to take his advice as seriously as she did with her missing deputy. He turned to Ravenstar and spoke to her low enough that Lynxstar and Briarsong would not hear.
"Why suddenly admit he has our cats after putting up such a fight insisting he didn't?" He asked her. "Even if he does have our missing, following his demands is foolish. We can't march blindly into this. I'm strongly against this plan." Crowthroat said. |

Only time will tell if we’re all just cynics on the run #### @tag Ravenstar leaned closer to Crowthroat as he spoke and nodded in agreement. "I know, I don't like the sudden change in his story either. I'll tell him what he wants to hear, after that I'll gather the senior warriors and come up with a plan of action. I'll send you to ShadowClan to explain it, seeing as they'll trust you the most as one of their former warriors." She whispered.
She cleared her throat and glared at Lynxstar with hostility. "Fine. We will no longer aid ShadowClan if it means bringing my cats home safe where they belong. If your warriors even so much as lay a claw on them and I find out, we'll make sure you won't get a good night's sleep for moons." She growled.
The dark grey she-cat flicked her ear and lashed her tail. "If they aren't home by the time the next half-moon has passed, we will be coming for them, and we will take them by force if needed." She hissed.
Ravenstar raised her tail as signal for her cats to return to camp. "Mark my words, Lynxstar. We will have our warriors and apprentices back." She said, glaring at him one last time before following her warriors. If we’re all just cynics come undone |

At Lynxstar's sudden admission, after so strongly denying his involvement, Heatherstar felt her hackles rise and the wind pick up around her. To think! They only deigned to listen to her for a second. Irrational mousebrains, all they wanted was a foolish war! The Windclan leader cast a brief, disbelieving glance toward the two bickering leaders, before she pressed her ears back with a growl.
"If you fools will not listen to reason, then I will not waste it on you," she meowed, tone cold as she narrowed her eyes. "Rule your lives with lies and war if you want, you'll never find your warriors through bloodshed, you'll only lose more."
With a lash of her tail, Heatherstar gathered her warriors around her, quickly checking she had her clan's attention.
"Do not expect Windclan to help you until you are ready to put this feud aside and work together. We have our own matters to attend."
Sometimes negotiation simply wasn't possible eith these cats. Turning, Heatherstar swiftly bounded away, her cats promptly splitting a path to the main land for her to lead them through. Their own dangers were more important than cats who thought they were badgers.
