[nospaces] [attr="class","biggieno"]  [attr="class","textieno"]The sun slowly began to rise as the promise of a new dawn was fufilled. Ravenstar was curled up with her son, Magpiekit, in the nursery. The kitten was still sound asleep, the queen still in a light doze as sunlight softly filtered through the nursery entrance. She gently wrapped her tail around Magpiekit as she shifted in their nest, gently pushing her head down on the soft nest in hoeps to drift back off into a deep sleep, not quite ready to start off the day.[break][break]
It seemed that StarClan had much different plans in store for her today.[break][break]
The molly jolted up as the ground began to shake violently, startling her, and poor Magpiekit half to death. She pulled him closer, gently soothing her frightened son as best as she could. Her fur was on edge as she tried to process what in StarClan's name was happening. Were the mountains moving? "It's gonna be okay...this will all pass..." She gently groomed Magpiekit's fur, uncertain if her own words were even true.[break][break]
The rumbling and shaking only lasted for a few minutes, however, it had felt like a lifetime. Once the world seemed to finally stop moving, Ravenwing cautiously rose to her paws. "Stay inside, my love. I'll go see what's happening. I'll be back." She promised.[break][break]
Cats slowly started emerging from their dens, their shock and confusion showing just as much as her own. Ravenstar quickly composed herself and lept onto the Perching Rock, lifting her tail. There was no need to call for a meeting, everyone was already present.[break][break]
"Is everyone alright?" She asked, taking a headcount of her warriors. Everyone seemed to be present, thank the stars. She searched among the crowd for the cats who seemed to compose themselves the most after the whole situation.[break][break]
"I'm sending a patrol to investigate the cause of...whatever that was. Raccoonstrike, Ebonystrike, Softprance, and Jaydust will come with me." She announced. "Spiderface, please make sure everyone is okay. Crowthroat, I want the camp on high-alert while I'm away. Moonwhisper will look after Magpiekit and Halfkit, as well as Daisybloom, if you're okay." She said, turning to the shaken calico. Perhaps a distraction would help ease her mind. "Everyone else, defend the camp. We don't know what was the cause of that."[break][break]
She lept down from the rock and padded over to the nursery entrance. "I'll be back soon, Magpiekit. I love you." She poked her head in for a moment. She turned her head back to her patrol, and signalled for them to follow her out into the territory. "Let's start by the RiverClan border and work our way around full circle."

Spiderface has just returned from the Moon Falls, what could he possibly do about StarClan’s message when he’d hardly any time to relay it to Ravenstar. He flicked his tail irritably, squinting against the morning sun to stare up at the sky as if he could force his ancestors into speaking to him again. When that yielded no results - just as he thought it would - he flicked an ear at Ravenstar’s command, not even getting to open his mouth before she moved onto Crowthroat. He huffed and rolled his eyes; always working that cat was.
He doubted she would listen to what StarClan had to say anyway, perhaps this was a preemptive measure. Whatever it was, he decided not to waste his breath and went on to do what he was told.
Raccoonstrike, on the other paw, was already bounding up to the camp’s entrance. He gave a nod in understanding at her words as he followed her out. No time for games today. Something was wrong and he was gonna figure out what.

He had been dreaming of sunshine and butterflies, a world full of peace and serenity where no harm or fear could come to reach him. However, Magpiekit found himself waking with a start as the earth began to quake and growl underneath his paws. As his mother pulled him closer, the smoke kitten squealed in fear and clung to her fur, burying his face into Ravenstar in hopes that she would will it all away. Her soothing grooming quenched his fear only temporary, until the earth disobeyed her promise and continued to rumble. But at last, the earth's tantrum yielded, leaving the disconcerted kitten's fur spiked and his stomach twisted in anxiety. "...Mama, the earth is angry- it growled at us!" The tiny smoke feline protested as Ravenstar attempted to leave in order to direct her clan, scrambling after her paws in an attempt to cling to her legs. "Don't go, mama! What if it eats you?" Magpiekit skidded to a halt at the edge of the nursery, to frightened to dare to venture outside after his mother. He could only have faith in her and pray that she was stronger than the angry ground. ---- Ebonystream, on the other hand, was acting like some sort of disgruntled elder. When the rumbling of the earth disrupted her evening snooze, she proceeded to whack it angrily with a paw followed by a seething hiss. Violence always solved her problems so she naturally assumed it would fix this situation as well. She even so much as spurt out a tendril of darkness in hopes of fixing whatever lay below the earth, to no prevail. "Damned ThunderClan even bothers me here. Bet Lynxstar's ego has gotten so horrendously large that it's disrupting the very ground we stand on. His conceitedness has expanded to a size in which the world can no longer contain."She was pissed off, per usual, so she was left grumbling to herself in order to relieve some of the rage that welled up in her slender form. With her onyx tail lashing in protest, the warrior abruptly rose to her paws to march out of the warrior's den to determine what was going on. "...I'll happily pop that head of his, so full of hot air...!" Even as she marched along, the warrior continued to mumble bitterly to herself. And who the hell was this "Ebonystrike" character?! "Can't even remember my name...oh, I'll make sure you remember this face the next time-" The warrior's slitted eyes shot daggers at her leader, with the rest of her sentence trailing off into a series of curses under her breath. If it wasn't for the fact that Ebonystream had a secret soft spot for kittens, she'd roast Ravenstar from where she stood. But alas, the leader was also a queen, so she'd have to rein herself in...for now. The dark warrior curled a lip around her protruding fangs. "Let's just go bust some ThunderClan skulls. I need something to hit."ThorneBlazesimonwhoIoana003Jinx |

[nospaces] [attr="class","biggieno"] [attr="class","textieno"]Ravenstar looked back as Magpiekit spoke. She gave him a gentle smile. "I'll make sure it won't eat any of us, my love." She meowed, however she wasn't confident in her own words. The molly had no clue what on earth the ground shaking meant, nor did she know what the end result would be. She just prayed it wouldn't happen again. Poor Magpiekit.[break][break]
Her ears flattened in embarrassment when Ebonystream called her out on getting her name wrong. "My apologies, Ebonystream. I must have crossed you and Raccoonstrike's names as they came out. It won't happen again, I'm very sorry." She shuffled her paws awkwardly. Perhaps Stormstar had been rubbing off on her in more ways than one. The thought of telling him about it amused her, thinking of how flustered he'd possibly get when she compared it to his awkward demeanor.[break][break]
Oh, how she missed him.[break][break]
Ravenstar flicked her tail and started to work her way out of camp, following the path up onto a pile of boulders covered in dried moss. She scanned the area, trying to get a sense of what the damage was if there was any, to begin with. Her blue eyes carefully followed each detail she could see, trying to pick out any sort of change.[break][break]
Closer to the direction of Five Stones, a few trees had fallen. It seemed like a good starting point for their investigation. [break][break]
"We'll start over there." She pointed her tail in the direction of the fallen pines, leaping down from the boulders. The dark molly padded through the territory quickly, wanting to get back to Magpiekit as quickly as possible, hoping to reassure him that nothing was wrong. She hated the thought of leaving him when he was so afraid, but an event of this caliber wasn't something she could just pawn off on Crowthroat. Ravenstar had to guide her Clan in this uncertain time, even if it cost one of her remaining lives.[break][break]
Ravenstar huffed as they reached the river that crossed part of DarkClan's territory until it would reach the swamp. A new tree had fallen, providing a new crossing point into the Elm sliver along the RiverClan border. "I'll check to see if it's stable." She meowed, putting a paw on the log carefully. Soon, she climbed up onto it, cautiously walking along the tree that just barely hovered over the river's surface. If she could cross without worry, the new path would make trips to the prey-rich area much quicker instead of having to go to the stone crossing by Night Rocks, or even worse, around through the swamp.[break][break]
She looked for a place to jump off among the branches, landing on the other side of the shore. "Go ahead and cross, but be careful! We still don't know if it's fully lodged where it is." She advised.[break][break]
As they ventured closer to their destination, the ground appeared more and more unsettled. New branches littered the path, large rocks were displaced, and the earth under their paws was cracked and shifted. Ravenstar felt uneasy as the ground was newly uneven. This path hadn't been rough and hill-like before.[break][break]
Soon, it became a steep cliff. Ravenstar cautiously peered down, her eyes widening in shock.[break][break]
"Great StarClan..."[break][break]
The ground had been swallowed, a deep ravine splitting the Elm sliver in two.

His ears twitched, staring down at the prey he was eating. That was, until, the earth began to shake. Oh, great, did Thunderclan do this? It made sense; Lynxstar was the type to cause this. As it came to an end, his icy gaze landed on his leader, ears perking as she spoke. Ah, he'd be on the patrol as well. With a grunt, he pushed himself up, padding over to join the group. "I'd be more than happy to rip into Lynxstar. He probably caused this anyway." He'd say quietly, mostly to himself. As the company left, the tom gave a look to Daisybloom, looking her over to make sure she was okay. He quickly caught up to the rest, eyeing the surroundings. He fully believed Thunderclan was at fault, and was more than willing to go - by himself - to Thunderclan himself to confront them.
As they came upon a newly fallen tree, Softprance watched Ravenstar as she tested it. It seemed stable enough, though he would look it over before crossing himself, glancing back at the rest of the patrol, ready to turn and help if they slipped or fell. He'd follow his leader closely; this felt like new territory. He had been through this part countless times, though. An odd feeling pricked his pelt; fear, perhaps, though he wouldn't be caught dead saying that.
He didn't have to. Softprance stood beside Ravenstar, staring into the brand new deep ravine. "What...is this?" Could it really have been Thunderclan? Surely they weren't...this strong, right?

JaydustNight was long that day. And so felt Jaydust’s sleep: quiet, numb, and calm. Imagine his surprise when the ground beneath his paws began to shake furiously - as if the Warrior had done something to upset the earth he laid on. Quite a ridiculous idea, but the shock made his mind swirl with horrors nonetheless. Luckily, it ended quickly. Unluckily, it disrupted the Warrior’s lack-of-a-dream; he certainly wasn’t having it. Cursing under his breath at the ground, he trotted out with everyone else, who also seemed to be in-between panic and utter boredom. Ebonystream especially looked more murderous than usual, and her words mirrored it better than the tom had hoped. But there were more pressing matters than listening to another Warrior yowl death threats at ThunderClan, no matter how much he agreed. Ravenstar had asked him to join her on a patrol, and quickly, they all left the camp to assess the damages. At first glance, nothing seemed amiss. A couple fallen trees, but it happened. Good thing they fell away from the camp, however. If anything, this was great! A fallen log now allowed for a new (although admittedly dubious) crossing through the swamp, which seemed safe as Ravenstar stalked on it, beckoning the patrol to follow when she found good footing. Softprance had said something about ThunderClan, but Jaydust did not believe what was in front of him was caused by Lynxstar. Nothing alive could do any of this- it was impossible! Right? But the ravine was still there, whether a cat or StarClan had done it. No- surely, StarClan couldn’t have? What punishment could this be? Opening the earth up, ready to swallow everyone whole. “This can’t be good,” whispered the tom, half to answer Softprance, half thinking aloud. “What do we do?” He turned to Ravenstar. simonwho Thorne Blaze 20mia08

Hell yeah she made her point clear. Ebonystream sat in silence, seemingly impatient as she awaited for the patrol to begin with that same cross expression plastered across her face. What was the point in running this whole investigation scheme, anyways? They knew that ThunderClan did it. Might as well just beat them to the punchline- quite literally. The hot-headed warrior bit her lip with one of her signature protruding canines, her tail tip twitching irritably as she waited for all to gather and for the patrol to finally gain some ground. Once they finally took off, the warrior kept up with the rest at a steady pace, no thanks to her long, spider-like limbs. She moved with confident strides, as if Ebonystream already knew what was waiting for them (...ThunderClan, of course). Surprisingly, the obnoxious molly was silent on the majority of the walk, until they finally scaled across the river and stood before the gaping earth. Elm Silver was no more. "It needed a face lift." The onyx-coated warrior spoke in her typical blunt fashion, her eyes trained on the new landscape for but a heartbeat before her mind was elsewhere. "Besides, this can be fixed easily. What do you do with tedious holes that are in the way? You fill them. I'd glady give Lynxstar a little shove into blissful oblivion..." The rest of her sentence seemed to be an inaudible jumble, mixed in with a pawful of pungent curses. "...or anyone else who irritates me, for that matter." She finished, with the last bit as clear as day. simonwho Thorne Ioana003 Blaze |
