    Jade feather found herself back at fourtrees. Other then gatherings, she'd been here twice before. Once, to see Thrushpelt, and again just because, where she'd met Dawnguard of river clan, and that stupid bloodclanner apprentice, or whatever they had. She growled just thinking about him, wishing she'd had more of a chance to take on the smaller cat. As a fully grown warrior, she might've been able to teach him a lesson or two. Dawnguard had shown up quickly to help, and the bloodclanner had been gone more swiftly then you could say mouse. He'd promised that Bloodclan would be back, with more numbers. Jade feather was worried about that, but if she ever saw the tom again she would make sure she was the last thing he ever saw in battle. Shaking herself out of the memory, she padded to the edge of the great rock, and stared up at it. Where the leaders sit.. She thought to herself. Sometimes, she'd imagine herself up there, someday. But not only did she find it unlikely, she didn't want to be leader. Too much responsibility, with every cat looking up to you for wisdom and guidance. She sat at the foot of the rock, and for the moment enjoyed the forest sounds. She loved how she could go out into the woods, and just be alone with her thoughts. Perhaps she'd come to four trees more often, it was beautiful here.

    Jagged froze, the ground dropped away from him, and Jadefeather seemed to have scurried down the slope and was somewhere down there in the clearing he could sense beyond the cliff. What if she got attacked by something and killed? Too many stale scents lingered in the air, making his head spin, he nearly dropped the round things he was carrying (Juniper Berries), that he had ran into the bush and had the juice in his fur. He figured they were probably good for something, so naturally he grabbed a few before hurrying after her scent.



    [debating on whether to bring Lionsighted back]

    [lol nvm read the tags]


    Lionsighted burst out of the undergrowth, hurling himself at Jadefeather with a snarl. He had grown somewhat bigger, now ten moons (same age as Jagged now XD), and attempted to slash his claws across her flanks and face.



    Jagged gave a startled yowl, as he heard fighting down in the hollow and threw himself (having dropped his bundle) down the slope towards the attacker and aimed to swipe his paw across Jadefeather's attacker, sorely missing and earning an amused laugh to come from the BloodClanner. "What? You forest kitties let him join your little clan?" Lionsighted smirked. He had been one of the cats to watch the twolegs torture Jagged in their garden just for entertainment. Jagged gave an angry growl at being made fun of, and again tried to hit the BloodClanner, only for Lionsighted to dance out of the way, and slash at Jagged's already blind eyes, catching him and leaving claw marks across his eyes. "Come on, Blind One, show us your skills!" He jeered, keeping out of Jagged's reach

    //sorry lol


    Jade feather yowled in alarm, as claws raked her side. She managed to dodge a strike to the face, and caught two scents. The bloodclanner, and Jagged. Jagged? What was he doing out here? Never mind that, he was in danger. The bloodclanner had turned on him, and was toying with him. While he was distracted with Jagged, Jade feather screeched with rage, an leapt towards the blood clanner, trying to land on his back and attack. "Leave Jagged alone you filthy rat!" She screeched.

    Lionsighted snarled as Jadefeather landed on his back and he dropped to the ground squirmed, slashing his claws against her chest. "Jagged, huh? The name suits you, twoleg pet!" He growled, towards Jagged, who stood frozen with fear.

    Jade feather managed to land, but immediately had to leap away. When she landed, she turned back to the tom who she hated so much. She raced forward, and lashed a paw at his face. Then, she darted behind him and tried to bite his tail. No way was he going to hurt Jagged.

    Hatred and anger radiated from Jadefeather, directed at Lionsighted.



    Lionsighted leaped away from her, landing on Jagged and using his hind claws to rip out what fur he could, while Jagged yowled and squirmed helplessly beneath the heavier tom, sightless eyes wide.

    Jade feather howled with rage, and quick as lightning ran at the toms, going to bowl the bloodclanner away. She was still about a year older, even if the stupid tom had grown. She hissed like a snake, and tried to sink her teeth into his scruff, to haul him away and batter him with her claws unsheathed.

    He snarled as he was bowled away from his target, and then teeth were in his scruff. Then he felt her claws slashing at his fur, and he retaliated, aiming to catch her around the eyes with reinforced claws.



    Jagged hurled towards the fight, hoping to hit the unfamiliar tom in the face with his own claws.

    Jade feather was triumphant for a moment, only to jerk away when claws came hurtling towards her face. They left gashes down her face, and they ran with blood. JAdefeather didn't screech, only readjusted her grip and went to bite down on the toms ears. She saw Jagged coming, and wanted to tell him to get out of here. But if she spoke, the blood clan tom would definitely see his attack coming, and might hurt Jagged even more. So all she could do was try to distract him, and drive him off.

    He snarled, growing angry, as Jagged's claws caught him in the face, blood welling up in the cuts, and running into his eyes. Teeth suddenly caught in his ears, and he slashed his claws in a vain attempt to break free, and if succeeded ateempted to ram Jagged hard enough to knock his breath from his lungs.

    Jade feather snarled as her teeth met skin, but loosened her hold as the tom struggled harder. He bolted for Jagged, and Jadefeather leaped after him, trying to grab him before he reached the blind tom.

    Jagged was suddenly thrown to the ground, struggling to breathe as Lionsighted pinned him down and had his claws at his throat in an instant. "Come any closer, I'll kill your little-" he started, just as Jadefeather's claws caught him and threw him off Jagged.

    Jade feather growled viciously as she tore the cat off of Jagged. "Threaten him again, and I'll gut you!" She hissed in his ear, before trying to scramble onto his back to bite his ears again, as that was a sensitive spot on any cat.

    He turned just before she could be on his back, and swiped his claws at her ears. "Would you now?" He snickered, dancing out of her reach to jump at Jagged, who was finally managing to find his paws again, only to be slammed back to the ground.

    Jade feather's eyes crackled with rage as she felt claws rake her ears. She tried to yowl a warning to Jagged, but was too late. She punched once again towards the bloodclanner. She was done with him. If she could get him off of Jagged, she was going for the kill. He was bloodclanner, and Twoface had said they were to be killed if possible.

    Lionsighted leaped out of her reach. This fight had grown boring. (Plus his role player isn't ready for him to die yet) he bounded up one of the slopes, pausing to glance back at them and yowl hateful obscenities at them before vanishing.



    Jagged shook, his scratches burned, his back and throat on fire, and his legs felt weak and he didn't even bother trying to stand. Weak sobs escaping him. There was no way he was going to make it as a warrior if he couldn't even defend himself or his clan mates.

    (XD Yeah, you better run! XP)


    Jade feather yowled back at him, saying if he came back she wouldn't be so merciful. Then, she turned and dashed to Jagged's side. "Jagged, are you alright? We have to get you back to camp, your wounds need tending to." She did her best to comfort him, and calm him. But what could she do? Well, the only thing she could think of was get him away from four trees, and back to camp. "Come on, stand up. We'll tell Twoface, and he'll do something about these stupid blood clan cats." She tried to nudge him to his feet.

    "..Jagged.. sorry.." he mewed, still lying there, just before he was being nudged to his paws. Sightless eyes shut tight, as he attempted to stand, to his paws as the world seemed to spin around him and he stumbled slightly off balance. Failure to defend them both enveloped him, and he let his tail drag, forgetting the berries he had dropped at the slope. It seemed as if they barely had enough (active) members in ShadowClan so what were they gonna do against BloodClan for just one arrogant and desperate tom trying to prove himself, (who failed at capturing Jagged)?

    "No, don't be sorry. I should be sorry. I'm always going off on my own, and it's going to get me in trouble someday. If I had sensed the blood clan tom, or if I hadn't even been out here in the first place, this wouldn't have happened." Jade feather meowed, leading him away from four trees and towards camp, trying her best to keep him steady. She was so mad at herself, and the stupid blood clan tom. She really did need to stop going off on her own, even if it was the best way to clear her head. If she was going to at all, she should stay near camp, not all the way out at four trees.
