An Outcry to a Friend [CAMP ATTACK]

Having been picking through the store of herbs, Smokepetal was awake, two piles before her. One was herbs that had gone bad, and needed to be thrown out, the other held herbs that needed to be resorted. That, she could do later. First-

A caterwaul from outside made Smokepetal flinch, scattering the herbs at her paws, and the sound of sudden battle made her sink low to the floor of the medicine den, fur standing on end. Fox! she heard the word spat and snarled, and suddenly the pugent scent of predator assaulted her nose. Oh no, oh no, oh no. Eyes wide, she laid there, breathing quickly. There was a sudden movement at the entrance of the den, where a massive silver form wrestled with a russet coated fox. Beechfang.

Brow furrowing, Smokepetal forced herself to her paws, taking a hesitant step towards the chaos. Her instinct begged her to sit still, where she was safe. There was no need for her to go out there, right? The clan was full of capable warriors who could take care of the foxes. But who will take care of the warriors? Trembling legs carried her towards Beechfang, and she shoved outside into the camp. "SkyClan! C-call to me if you need help!"

Smokepetal gives a Defending Buff! +3 HP to every SkyClan cat in the battle!

Sunfire was already awake when the foxes stormed into camp. Like so many moons ago, when he'd been freshly apprenticed, the yellow tom leaped immediately into battle, sprinting towards the fox that his sister was engaged with. He didn't waste time with preamble, opting instead to just leap in, dragging his claws down the side of the fox's face.

Sunfire used Front Paw Strike on Fox 4, dealing 10 damage at the cost of 7 stamina.

The scent of fox preceded the raid by mere seconds. Spottedfrog had turned, just about to open her mouth to say something when the first flash of a russet pelt forced through the camp entrance. It was followed by another, and another, and another... too many for her to even keep track of as they burst through, yipping and barking and spreading out. This was no attack, this was a full scale invasion. Her hackles raised, head snapping wildly back and forth as she tried to decide a target. A large, scarred fox targeted Bloodstrike, and that was all the urging she needed. Blind to all else, she charged to the aid of her father, slamming into the fox and sinking her teeth into whatever bit of flesh she could find.

Spottedfrog used Snap on Kurama, dealing 10 damage at the cost of 7 stamina.

Ambersun didn't expect foxes to attack SkyClan camp.

She had heard the alarm sound, though it took the yowls of her clanmates to realize what that actually meant. As her clanmates struck each of the snarling foxes, seemingly doing a lot of damage each to them, the young warrior followed suit with her own attacks. One of the foxes was being double-teamed by Lightningbreeze and Creamsky near the leader's den, so the young she-cat decided to join them.

"Hey," she said quickly, hoping that it would calm her nerves. Staring down the fox, the young she-cat slashed at its face. It reeled back in pain as she did so. StarClan, please don't let us be overwhelmed by them.

Ambersun used Front Paw Strike on Young Fox 1, dealing 8 damage and costing 7 stamina.

Snapping of twigs and leaves, yips and then the stink of foxes, followed by the yowls of SkyClan... dragged Hazelshade out of sleep and into confused fog.

The elder tried to stand immediately, but the old she-cat couldn't get her legs in order. She trembled and slumped, blinked in sleepy bafflement. Graceless but with determination, she stumbled far enough to see out of the thorn bush.

Foxes moved swiftly through the clearing, more than enough to attack every den. An older hardened one met the dark brown she-cat's bright yellow eye through the criss-crossed branches as it advanced on her den. Hazelshade stared back defiantly.

The locked gazes broke as a warrior shielded the entrance, teeth snapping with desperate strength at the invader. Another warrior sprinted over to fight by her side, claws slashing down its face. 

The clearing writhed with graceful SkyClan cats battling for their home against the larger russet attackers. Without her memory, in the chaos, Hazelshade could not make head or tail of who was where. 

Her darting eyes, blown wide with panic while her heart hammered so hard against her chest, went to the apprentice's den. The grey apprentice with the russet chest fiercely burst out first ~ despite the disadvantage of his injured leg ~ he knocked the fox that snapped at the entrance away so his denmates weren't trapped.

For a moment, Hazelshade's eyes lit with pride. An army of apprentices followed Whinchatpaw, while a warrior came to assist, each aiming blows that one by one weakened the fox. Another threatened the nursery, where the elder saw a black-and-white pelt sheltering the kits ~ a strong warrior and apprentice fought it off, but Hazelshade's heart leaped in her throat.

The short-furred, slender elder could not make herself much larger, but she stood wide just inside the thorn bush den on frail unsteady legs, trying desperately to get her bearings. Her puffed up tail lashed while she hissed intimidatingly at the attacking fox.

Kurama was baffled at the lack of power behind the old dark tom's attacks. He saw this same cat rip through the bodies of his kin like the machines the twolegs use on trees before... where had all his power gone? He wasn't about to show any form of mercy of course, but it was still something he was going to ponder later. A sharp pain reminded him that it was not just the old tom he'd have to fight, and a death glare from his yellow eyes met with the second cat who had come to the old tom's aid. No matter. Kurama didn't care if he died, so long as the old tom went down with him. He shifted his focus back onto Bloodstrike and his teeth sought whatever he could grab hold of.

Bloodstrike didn't want to even acknowledge how grateful he was that Spottedfrog had come to help him. He certainly didn't want to acknowledge how much he needed her help. His claws were gone. The twolegs took them from him. It was something he'd hidden since his return and feigned illness as a reason why he couldn't hunt... while also refusing to go into the medicine den at all. Maybe this was better. Maybe dying instead of letting the clan know what had happened to him would be best. He could die with his dignity in tact. As the lead fox's teeth plunged into his flesh once more, the pain snapped him out of his shamed state of mind and he came roaring back to life. With murder flashing in his eyes, Bloodstrike shot his fangs forward and bit the fox back. He twisted this way and that way trying to tear flesh as much as he could...

That old fang... the old fang constantly exposed to the elements and dryness finally succumbed to the abuse it had endured for moons due to Bloodstrike's torn lip. Bloodstrike wrenched his head back from the fox's hide, hoping to rip a chunk of meat away from his opponent... only to howl in agony as his tooth broke in half. Blood poured from the old tom's mouth. He back-pedaled, confused as to what had just happened.

Beechfang was vaguely aware of Smokepetal's voice behind her, offering healing to those who needed it. Another clanmate joined her in fighting the fox, but she didn't stop to look or offer thanks as she advanced on the russet-furred creature once more, snapping viciously at a shoulder. The fox was dazed still, and that meant there was no room for anything else to focus on.

Beechfang used Snap for -7 sp, dealing -10 damage. Young Fox 2 is still stunned.

Another cat joined her, and Wolfblossom risked a glance to find Bearpaw yanking the fox back by the tail. She offered her grandson a grim nod of approval before digging her claws into the beast's flank while it was trying to find balance. She would rather have not had any of the apprentices anywhere near this fight, but this was their camp, their home. As much as she wanted to protect them, it was theirs to defend, too. The fox near the apprentice den went down beneath a swarm of the apprentices and Foxtrot, and Wolfblossom felt a glimmer of pride for them. Even the newer, less-trained apprentices were fighting. They shouldn't had to, but they were Skyclanners. Now to give the rest of the foxes the same fate.

Wolfblossom used Front Paw Strike for -7 sp, dealing -10 damage.

Stoneheart growled under her breath. Her grip hadn't been as secure as she would've liked, but that was okay. Stormwatcher had come to her aid, and she was grateful for her old mentor's help. Two against one was better against these foul beasts.

Graywind had little time to feel relief at her brother's presence by her side, as the jaws of the fox closed against the flesh at her shoulder. A screech of pain was ripped from the young warrior as she twisted, pulling away before leaping at the fox, sending them both to the ground as she dug her claws into russet fur.

Graywind used Leap and Hold for -15 sp, dealing -8 damage. Fox 4 is PINNED for TWO turns.

Stormwatcher took a second or two to quickly check over his former apprentice worried that she had been hurt by this monster invading their home. He didn't see any wounds on her and he was relived of that.

"you alright?" he panted as he turned to the fox again. The fox wasnt pinned anymore but Stormwatcher was intent on getting its attention on him and not Stoneheart.

"come here ugly" he taunted as he reared up on his hind legs while the fox was still getting out of its pin and brought his massive front paws crashing down on the fox's unprotected head.

Once the fox was on the ground, Stormwatcher started wailing on him with ground and pound vicious attacks right to its head.

"you come to my house? Try hurt my apprentice?"

BAM BAM more heavy front paw shots to the fox as blood started dripping from the downed fox.

"Let's talk now! Let's talk now!!! he hissed at the fox while bashing its head with uncontested strikes. (KHABIBBBB)

BAM BAM sharp forarms smacked the fox down.

Stormwatcher was fully intending for Kurama to not be able to recognize his own kin after he was done with this young fox that was foolish enough to think it could hurt Stoneheart.

There was a certain time of night where the first was still and cool, and a young warrior could be left alone to stew in her thoughts. Although she didn't do it often, some nights found Violetsky wandering the outskirts of camp, never straying too far for both the protection of camp and her own safety. And of course it was tonight she had strayed further, confident that the quiet night would quickly alert her to any unusual sounds of danger as she darted through the trees, climbing higher in order to see the stars.

It was the sound of the foxes that was her first warning alarm. The sound of disturbance, of the camp's early warning systems, built to wake the clan at chance of an intruder. Instinctively, Violetsky whipped around, changing the course of her tree flight in a direct path back to camp. She almost fell in the process, and had to dig her claws deep into the think branch, thankful she had reacted fast enough as to not fall out of the tree. By the time she had made it make to camp, the battle was evident. More foxes than she could count swarmed various dens, and yet each were soon met with defence from skilled warriors and apprentices.

But it was in that moment Violetsky froze as she watched the battle rage below her, in the heart of her home. Where did she go? What did she do? There were so many opponents to chose from and yet none at all. She felt her chest tighten and breathing grow short as she stared down from her tall perch, unable to make her paws move.

Just climb down Violetsky. Help your clanmates, it's not that hard. Stop hiding away like some kit, there apprentices there fighting harder than you ever could.

That voice in her head was back, at first seemingly helpful and comforting only to turn critical in a matter of seconds. Violetsky closed her eyes, trying to gather herself, but was met with flashes of all her loved ones facing the foxes in an ever-losing battle. Dawnfeather, Alderpaw, Graywind, Wolfblossom. The consequences if she didn't move right now.

It was that final fear that made her move, dropping to a lower branch and launching herself at the nearest fox, which was fighting both Falconmoon and Birdstar. The tightness in her chest still hadn't left. She still felt like she couldn't breathe, but maybe that was what the adrenaline of battle did. Maybe it was normal, and she just didn't know yet what it was to be a warrior. Regardless of her doubts, her claws held strong against the intruding creature.

Creamsky joined her, as did Ambersun; but she didn't have the chance to properly greet them before the fox attacked her. Lightningbreeze yowled in pain, not having expected the fox's jaws to be quite so strong, but pushed through it to keep fighting. Thinking quickly, she came up with a plan: if she could somehow incapacitate it, the others could probably finish it off before they got hurt, too.

Lightningbreeze used Leap-and-Hold, dealing 8 damage and costing 15 SP! Young Fox 1 is pinned for 1 turn!

Jaypaw was surprised to see the fox had been killed already. Well, now he had the pleasure of pinning a dead fox's corpse. He quickly hopped off, and listen to Whin. Whin had instructed he, and Thyme go with Foxtrot to make sure the kits were alright. Almost as if he were in auto mode, he did as told running at a decent pace to the nursery. “1 down 8 to go” he muttered quietly, no one would here that over the shouts that were still to much for his ears. It seemed this next one was stunned, no need to jump onto it. It had pained him to use a simple paw swipe to attack, but it would have to do he already wasted a quarter of his stamina jumping on the first fox.

It irritated Jaypaw when cats just used a paw to attack. He hated it. A simple paw, what was that going to do? Leave a scratch on your opponent’s nose? You have to attack to them with all your might when fighting, no simple scratch on the opponent will make the difference. These are his thoughts as he swipes as hard has he can at the next fox.

Jaypaw used front paw strike dealing 6 damage and costing 7 stamina!
