=JointClan-BloodClan= =PART 5- Trapped= NOTICE INSIDE=

Toothstar jumped off the highrock and started toward MellowClan.

Raincloud bounded behind Toothstar, looking back to see if the rest of the Clan was following. All the time, her claws burned to tear and avenge her friends. Her blue eyes seemed to turn red as they blazed with rage. Her ears were straight up as she took energetic steps that were more like leaps than running.

"Don't forget, we need to follow the scent. I'm pretty sure Stripepaw said that they were far away..." What were his directions again...? Oh, yeah!

"Stripepaw said we need to take a left turn into the woods to find them. And then we should find the camp if we continue straight."

The gray she-cat almost brushed Toothstar's nose as she veered in front of him and started heading left diagonally.

Larchheart dashed behind Toothstar as if powered by some invisible force, as if a monster was chasing her. Nightmask followed close behind, positive not to lose Raincloud's trail.

Larchheart tried not to think of anything that could slow her down, but she always was. Still, she continued to run, determined to take revenge... possibly.

Stripepaw felt a jolt of happiness, he knew they were coming, they had to be. Then - then, Mellowheart would be in for it.

((Oh, yes, Mellowheart WILL be in for it xD Who gets to drive out who?))

(Toothstar will drive Mellowstar. Peaceheart a rogue.)

Toothstar followed behind the eager she-cat quickly.

Stripepaw, his siblings and most of StarClan were gathered. Mellowheart was going down, and they knew it.

((Can we skip to the part where we get to camp? But don't do too much without Raincloud!))

((Never mind. We need to get going with this.))

Raincloud finally found the camp, her ears flat and eyes singing the things around her with their glare. (Not literally.) She saw the leader lounging in the middle of camp.

"Five cats -- two loyal warriors, three innocent apprentices -- have lost their lives. I will avenge them..."

Then she let out a frightening yowl. "Mellowheart!!!"

Raincloud leaped with all the might of LionClan.

"You have not rightfully earned your nine lives! I will kill you!!"

Mellowstar leaped up, and growled. "Come and get me, Tiny." Mellowheart taunted. Stripepaw, CLoudpaw, Hazelpaw, Stormwind and Branchstar stood by Raincloud. Fernstorm stood by them, along with SMallpaw and Lionpaw. They all bared their teeth. "Thanks for coming." Stripepaw grinned at Raincloud, feeling admiration towards her.

At first, Raincloud was angered by the taunt, but Stripepaw's words warmed her heart. She narrowed her eyes with pleasure and smiled, but then snapped into battle mode, and pounced onto Mellowheart's shoulder, trying to tear with her claws furiously.

Mellowstar felt Raincloud's claws tearing at her shoulder, and she grinned. It would just grow back, or would it? She felt the skin tear, and it didn't grow back. Raincloud had something Mellowstar didn't, but what? Fernstorm, Mellowheart's own daughter charged at her, and clawed her face. Smallpaw and Lionpaw landed on her back with great speed, raking claws on any bit of flesh they could reach. The StarClan cats joined in, helping.

Raincloud tried to jump out of the way, but the claws still scored across her head and down her left ear. The gray she-cat could feel the damage, but acted like it was nothing.

"Thanks, everyone!" Her voice was oddly light, and she felt she could yowl as loud as a volcano. What was this...?

When the pain jolted her as if she had been scratched again, she knew the damage to her ear would probably be permanent. But her hearing was fine -- she hoped.

Growling loudly, she leaped at Mellowstar's face, but then faked the she-cat out and dodged to the side, trying to push her over on her side.

Mellowstar felt herself being pushed over by all the cats, and landed hard. She scored claws against everyone, and anyone she could. "What do you have that I don't?" She hissed angrly at Raincloud. "WHAT?" She growled. Stripepaw grinned at her, and raked his claws against her, she was pretty beat up. "Love. A clan, loyal clanmates!" Stripepaw said. "Kin, family." Hazelpaw said. He felt pretty close to Raincloud now..

Raincloud felt like her heart would explode out of her chest. She had to drop her chest onto the ground. That was it!

"But... I'm a medicine cat!" She wailed to the sky, howling like a wolf would and standing tall. Shaking her head, she charged at Mellowstar with all her might, trying to headbutt her straight in the chest to shock her for just that one moment.

((Fernstorm IS against us, right?))

Suddenly, Larchheart charged into the scene, barreling Fernstorm in the side and growling ferociously. Her voice was intimidating as she spat out the words that came to her mind.

"You will pay for what you did to Brackenheart...."

She launched herself forwards, blindly tearing at her enemy.

Nightmask looked at Larchheart and her ferocious fighting, careful to defend himself.

(hey!! You two...Anna, she still has that, no matter what. And didn't you see my post?)


Toothstar yowled a stop. "Stop! Leave Mellowstar alone!" He yowled loudly. "Larchheart, Raincloud, Fernstorm, Nightmask!" He hissed stalking to them.

(( Fernstorm is good! No I didn't see your post, with everybody against her can she not have it? I mean, she is still my charrie, right? ))

Fernstorm snarled. "What are you doing? I am not bad!"

Toothstar growled. "Of course you aren't." He said. "Do you all want to get killed?" He yowled. "Look at Mellowstar! Her fur is growling back. Fight others. We are leaving Mellowstar alone! She has kits. All you know that you can't kill a Mother, good or not. I plan on following those rules!' He barked.

(( =P Alright! She can still have it.. LOL. xDD ))

Fernstorm growled at Larchheart. "Wait a minute!" She said to Toothstar. "MY MOTHER HAS FREAKING KITS?"

Toothstar stopped. "Yes. Can't you see? She barley fought!"

Fernstorm looked at her mother, and felt hatred rising in her. She also felt a tiny, itty bitty ounce of love for her, but nobody was gonna know that. "SHE KILLED MY FATHER!" She yowled. She wanted so badly to go tera her tp shreads.

Toothstar walked up to Fernstorm. "I know. Kill her after!"



Mellowstar limped away, her kits were..FINALLY due today.




(names names. 3 kits...I have a plot for them! I thought of two names.

Clawkit, Morningkit.)

(( The third one, should be, Mellowkit or Darkkit. xDD ))

Fernstorm growled, and watched her mother limp away.

((Dang. I had a plot for Raincloud. I knew EXACTLY what she was going to do and say.))

"How can I let her get away!!?" Raincloud's voice was a mix between a growl and a yowl. "She killed our Clan members! We can't just do nothing!!!" It almost sounded as if she were possessed. Her fur was bristling, her eyes burning mad.
