Shadows in the Night~

Moonsage raced through the night, the badger barely a fox length away from him. He knew that the badger would get him, if he didn't get away quickly. He jumped to a tree, trying to claw his way up it. His training as a Medicine Cat didn't exactly include battling badgers, or climbing trees like a Warrior, so he was at a very weak, very low branch. Luckily, he was small, lithe, and almost invisible in the black of the night. He barely dared to make a breath, the badger was right under him. To his fortune, the badger lost his scent, and fled. He began to breathe again, but slowly and warily, as if the badger could be anywhere.

Moonsage jumped from the tree, landing nimbly on his feet. He looked around, looking at the familiar place as Fourtrees. His feet were tired, and he lay down, in the center of the trees. He yawned, and almost drifted off, when he remembered he needed to be alert and wary, in case the badger were to return.


((PLEASE POST D:))

Snowpaw padded near to four trees and scented a badger.She dropped a small mouse and burried it.Then she scented a shadowclan cat and went for a look

Moonsage looked from side to side, and saw Snowpaw, but he didn't recognize her. All he could tell was that she was ThunderClan. He hissed.

Featherpaw stalked the apprentice, her sister to be exact, to Fourtrees. Fear scent, badge smell, and ShadowClan filled the air. She opened her mouth to taste the grim mixture. She wanted to know what her sister was doing there, with all these nasty scent surrounding her. She fell into the shadows, her pelt blending in nicely. She found a nice bush downwind and sat, patiently.

"What are you doing here?" He sneered to Snowpaw.

Swiftstar happened to be dreaming about a horde of mice attacking him. However, in hearing the meeting, the mice disappeared and he padded over, hoping nobody saw.

Featherpaw twitched a bit at his insult to Snowpaw, ready to attack at any moment.

Moonsage waited for Snowpaw's reply, hissing under his breath.

Deadpaw peered out from a bush, racing to Snowpaw's side. "What's going on?" he hissed at Moonsage.

"Oh its just that I scented badger scent and fear scent so I came to take a look..." She mewed looking at the shadow clan cat

He softened. "Oh." He then glared. "You should get back to your camp. It's dangerous in the forest at night."

Deadpaw nudged his mate. "Yes, go back to camp," Deadpaw meowed softly, licking her cheek.

Featherpaw looked at the glint in Moonsage's eye.
"Not that apprentice."
She hissed, walking through the shadows, blending in, being unnoticed, till she was right behind Moonsage. She didn't pounce, only wait for a moment. She sat their as still as the shadow itself, and perfectly blended.

"Ok" Mewed Snowpaw,then she saw the badger return to four trees

Deadpaw froze. "Snowpaw!" he yowled, and leaped to her side. He'd fought foxes and even a dog on his own, but he wouldn't dare confront a badger alone. It's blueberry eyes bored into the group of cats, and it lumbered forward.
