    (What the hell? Lol oh, I won't be able to respond for a bit cause I'm mowing grass -_-)


    Moongaze


    He nodded. "Yeah, but they left a message," at this, he looked at Honeyfur.

    ooc: mowing grass?? xD All right.


    ic: Honeyfur caught his look, and slowly nodded nervously. She lowered her voice as she said the next few words. "'Darkness comes. Be ready to lose those you care about to leave for the Darkness'. That was all."


    Rushstar had a look of confusion on his face. "All right. All of you, make sure your injuries are looked at." He decided to speak with a few cats about this, cats who would understand. Plus, he didn't want to alert the clan.


    Dewcloud had finished with Mudclaw, but had ordered him to stay still. She looked at the rest of the cats, chewing herb leaves and applying its pastes and cobwebs onto the wounds.


    After she was done, Honeyfur and Hawktail helped move Mudclaw into the medicine den, where she gave the tom a poppy seed. Once they were done the two cats slipped out of the medicine cats den.

    (Yea unfortunately I haven't moved to college yet. I don't do that until the 3rd of October. And now I smell like grass ans gas -_- blah. I may take a shower tomorrow.)


    Eaglefeather


    He knew something was wrong, the way Honeyfur was quite when she spoke to Rushstar. Thistlepaw, unaware of how serious this was, pounced on his uncle's tail. This gained a quiet purr from the near senior warrior.

    ooc: Ohh I see.. then you still have a while to wait for xD


    ic: Rushstar was seated by the entrance of his den, his tail swishing back and forth at a slow motion. At the sight of him, the leader beckoned Eaglefeather with the twitching of his ears.

    (Yea and that's if I get my acceptance letter I'm still waiting for it)


    Eaglefeather(thumb was tempted to hit the d on my keyboard(touch phone, not laptop. That's being a jerk))


    The tom gently shoved Thistlepaw away before he padded over to Rushstar, dipping his head in respect.

    ooc: ahaa lol xD And hope you get that letter soon~


    ic: Rushstar smiled and gestured for him to sit beside him. "Eaglefeather, there is something I'd like to ask. Honeyfur has told me that she received a message from the Shadow cats. I believe it is addressed to you or Falconpelt. I do not completely understand the message, and so I hope you do. But not a word of this to any other cat, other than Falconpelt, Goldenfur, Talonswipe and Wildheart. Understood??"

    ( ^^)


    Rushstar sighed and twitched his ears in thought. "The message was 'Darkness comes. Be ready to lose those you care about to leave for the Darkness'". He glanced at Eaglefeather with a small frown. "What do you think it means??"

    Eaglefeather


    The Tom bristled and looked to his littermates. "Someone apart of one of the families here will turn to the Shadows," he breathed quietly. "When that happens, we have to prepare for battle, for it's the sign of the coming Darkness."

    "Battle... what I had hoped to avoid." Rushstar had an unreadable expression on his face, his eyes focused hard on nothing in particular. His mind was whirling. He sighed after a pause, lowering his head as if tired. "Then there is nothing we can do about it, other than prepare ourselves." Our apprentices will have to train hard... "But Eaglefeather," he continued, "I assume it cannot be predicted of who that 'someone' may be?"

    Rushstar nodded and turned his head to look at his clan mates. It struck him hard how his clan would have to fight a fierce battle, not knowing who will return.


    "Thank you for your time, Eaglefeather." Rushstar said as he stood up, shaking his pelt. "I am not feeling well, and must visit Dewcloud. Let us speak again soon." He smiled and blinked his eyes kindly at the cat before running off towards the medicine cat den.

    Eaglefeather


    He watched his leader run off and had to wonder what he meant by he wasn't feeling well. He turned only to be startled by the mysterious black and white tom that had randomly popped up. "Why do you do that, Starpelt," he asked, forcing his fur fat. "We have an entrance tunnel. You could just walk through the tunnel." The tom smiled, whiskers twitching in amusement. "Because," he purred. "I enjoy your reactions. They're the most amusement I can get."
    "You never come to camp without a reason," Starpelt nodded, his face growing serious. "Rushstar's illness is strengthening and there's nothing the Clan can do," he warned. "StarClan willing, he will survive the battle to come."

    "Dewcloud," Rushstar mewed as he slipped in side the den. The she-cat lifted her head from her herbs and bounded over to him with a worried smile. "Has it come back?" The leader nodded. "Yes. my throat is unwell, but that is all. Do you have anything that could help me??" The medicine cat nodded and padded back to collect a few herbs for the leader. "Take this twice a day, and take this now. It will soothe the pain, and hopefully improve your condition. And the last one is to give you strength," she explained as she pointed to the different leaves with her nose. Rushstar nodded and licked up the leaves.


    "Oh, Starpelt, you are here?" Said a voice from behind the two. Talonswipe came padding over slowly, a kind look on his face. "How unusual."

    Starpelt


    The old tom watched Talonswipe for a moment before he dipped his head. "I just came to warn Eaglefeather," he mewed softly.

    Talonswipe nodded in understanding, and in greeting as well. "I assumed so. Things are stirring in the forest, and the darkness is approaching faster than I expected." He looked to Eaglefeather. "Are you ready, Eaglefeather??"

    Eaglefeather


    He took a deep breath and let it out in a sigh. "I hope so," he breathed. "If not, I'm Shadow food." That last part was meant as a sort of amusement.

    (You and me both lol)


    Eaglefeather


    The Tom grinned back at Talonswipe and turned to Starpelt. "You'll be staying for the Batle, won't you?" The black and white Tom nodded. "I am to guide you and fight alongside you until this is over," he mewed. "Then I must return to the stars."(ugh okay moving on)


    Darkheart


    The black colored tom lay in the coolness of the Shadows, half asleep.
