Name: Crystalgaze
Age: 21 moons
Rank: Deputy
Appearance: Coat is glistening white and shines in the light, grey around her muzzle (note that she's not old, it's it's just her coat color, but it makes her look older) Her eyes are a pale blue and her tail tip is grey.
Personality: She's kind and nice but will fight fiercely to protect the ones and things she loves and believes in. She has a pretty long temper. But don't push her buttons! She's also a bit quiet and shy.
Mate/Crush/Kits: none..yet.
Other: Because Nightglare hates her, a slight depression arises in her every once in a while, because she wants to have Nightglare like her, and strives to have everyone in the Clan like her. (But she's not the annoying "WILL YOU BE MY FRIEND HAHAHAH FRIENDS FOREVER" type.) -

Yay! An enemy already! xD And btw, edit in my form because Nightglare practically hates Crystalgaze.

Crystalgaze's pelt ruffled in slight anger, but also remorse as she watched Nightglare spying her with jealousy. She knew she had done nothing wrong, it was just that she had become deputy, and Nightglare was envious. She got it. She knew. But there was a small part of her telling her to ask Nightglare why, that she wanted not to be enemies, but friends, acquaintances at least. But Nightglare probably would push her away, and she didn't want that. So she stared at the ground sadly for many heartbeats until she gave up and trotted over to the freshkill pile, picking out the smallest apple she could find. Sighing with slight depression, she sunk her fangs into it, not relishing the sweet taste like she normally would.

Crystalgaze tried as best she could to shake it off, and padded over to Cheri. "Hey, Cherryclaw," she mewed. "If anyone asks where I've gone, I'm out hunting." She dipped her head and headed out.

Crystalgaze shook out her fur when she got outside and traveled out for a bit until she reach a big clump of trees. Apples and oranges grew on them. Crystalgaze sighed with relief, at first she hadn't seen much and wanted to have at least three fruit or prey to take back.
Unsheathing her claws for grip, Crystalgaze climbed the tree with ease, tail ready to balance her if she fell. As she reached a high branch {maybe 10 feet up in real measurements} she plucked an apple from the leaves with sharp teeth and dropped it to the ground, in a pile of leaves, hoping it didn't bruise. She then plucked an orange and dropped that too. When she was done she had about five oranges and seven apples. It would be a hassle to carry back to camp but it would feed many.
As Crystalgaze readied herself to get down, she noticed brown specks down below, with things that looked like flattened tails. They were furry and the color of mud. Crystalgaze gasped as she realized they were beavers -- that's when she noticed the river to the north of her and the small wooden dam and beaver den down inside of the water. Her tail puffed up and back fur stood on end; this was terrible. No..no no no no no..
One of the beavers waddled up to the tree, chuckled to the others, and started eating the bottom of the tree -- at least, that's what it looked like. The chomping noises made Crystalgaze uneasy, though they were very faint from up this high. Then a creaking noise arose and the beavers scattered.
[align=center]No. This isn't happening. It isn't. Crystalgaze didn't believe herself, though. Her claws dug in deep to the bark of the tree.Stay calm. You won't die. You can't. she shivered.
StarClan help me..

Sorry for all the edits, I've been skimming through as my own spellchecker because IPAD SUCKS COUGH COUGH. I can't turn it off though because I'm used to having it turn theyre into they're and capitalize the first letter of every sentence and let me type crystalg and have it turn to Crystalgaze. So I can't. xD So, sorry for by mistakes on my part. {SEE! BY INSTEAD OF ANY! COME ON!}

The tree slowly started to plummet to the ground, and Crystalgaze was so frozen in terror she could not yowl for help. Her claws dug in deeper, harder, to the tree bark, and everything was so..so slow. It was as if StarClan wanted her to relish this moment. No, she told herself. They would help me, if they could.. Was this meant to happen?
Crystalgaze could either hold on tight, or jump off and fall to her death anyway. That would be the death of a brave warrior, but in the split second she decided to think about it, she realized she might be able to elude death. That's when she once again noticed there was a clump of trees, not just one. They would all fall on her when the first tree collided with them. "Fox dung," she whispered quietly.
But as the tree fell down, it didn't hit the others. Instead, it started to fall into a small clearing. As it was about halfway down, Crystalgaze leapt to one of the branches on another tree that was close, her eyes closed. She gripped with her claws as hard as possible to the branch of the tree, but the wind, pretty strong up so high, spun her around, so that her left back leg impacted with the trunk of the tree. There was a crack.
That's not good.. Crystalgaze thought. Her breaths rattled shakily and blood was trickling out of the leg wound. It was probably broken. She had eluded death, though. Just as she had hoped..so she couldn't be complaining.
As Crystalgaze lay there on that branch of the tree, her tail puffy and limp, her eyes closed, back fur straight up, blood coming out of a broken left back leg, breaths so shallow it seemed they were nonexistent, it really looked like she was dead.
And Crystalgaze dreamed.

Crystalgaze dreamed.
She dreamt of two things. Firstly, she dreamt of camp -- trees falling down on everyone, and death and mangled corpses and blood and terror and fear and dread and regret and remorse.
Then it cut off and was replaced by another dream, a dream of Nightglare. The warrior was staring at Crystalgaze in anger, then she lunged at her, and they fought. In the end, Crystalgaze struck Nightglare down..and..and killed her. She couldn't believe the grief. Her depression would never go away, not now, not ever..
Then there was nothing.

Crystalgaze's eyes shot open and she jumped up, eyes wide. She lost her footing and started to slip. She yowled in horror and scrambled back onto the branch, shaking with fear.
"I..my leg's bad," she drawled, dizzy from blood loss, and her vision was blurry. Her eyes were watering and she was starting to slip again.. "I need help," she moaned, swaying from side to side. She laid down again and tried not to fall asleep. If you rest you won't awake.

Crystalgaze stood still and mustered a shaky, weak nod. "You should've been deputy," she whispered, her eyes tearing. "You're more capable than me. Look at me now, even," she sighed. Her ears dropped and she slumped down in agony. "Such an unwise decision.." she muttered, shaking her head.

Sorry for inactive..again.. And yes Crystal's leg is broken. AND A FIRE?!?!??! Crudnuggets..

Crystalgaze's fur ruffled up in the wind and she shut her eyes tight. As she hit the ground, she rolled, her broken leg taking some damage. She cringed.
"Are you -- okay..?" Crystalgaze asked Nightglare, hacking. With a wheeze she coughed out the last bits of dirt from her mouth and shakily stood, her eyes glazed and fur puffy in fear.

Crystalgaze sighed. She was angry at herself. Being the Clan deputy, she had to be able to protect the Clan -- and now what? She had a broken leg, Nightglare was hurt because of HER, and Redkit's scent was lingering in the air. She wished she could walk, so that Wildheart didn't have to take care of her. But she was a mouse-brained idiot, and caused all this.

So many tags..and what's happening o.o

OOC: I guess so, yeah :3 I think we moved her in there
Oh btw, look at this!
"Crystalgaze got up and started to strut towards the camp exit. She was gimping, but she didn't care. 'I'm FINE!' she spat, tripping and slamming her face on the dirt." :3IC: "Yes?" Crystalgaze asked, her voice slightly raspy from the smoke. She spotted Nightglare near Cherry, and gently sighed to herself. She still hates me, doesn't she?
-
"You know what?" Crystalgaze murmured. "They might be strong, but how many are there? If there are only a few then if we have a strategy it may..work.." Her sentence trailed off. She took a deep breath and said, "If we get the beavers out of the water then they're at a disadvantage. All we have to deal with is outsmarting them, and they don't seem too smart outside of building dams and things." She looked straight at Cheri. "And if there's a life to risk, I'll do it. I'm injured anyway. All I'm good at is spouting out stupid ideas that will never work, and breaking a limb or two." Her gaze dropped down to her nest. Her eyes seemed glassy, as if the only thing that lay behind them were flashbacks. And that's what was there. When she got chosen as deputy and that everlasting hatred from Nightglare. When she broke that leg. When Sunspots died.
Ah, her mother, Sunspots. Sunspots had been a graceful long haired golden she-cat with a wonderful personality. On the day she had died, was the day Crystalgaze became a warrior. Crystalgaze's first task was to patrol, and she found her mother dead in the forest with bite marks in her neck. What she would do to have Sunspots back.

OOC: It just deleted my whole post. ARRRRGH...
IC: "Thanks," Crystalgaze mewed, looking back up at Cherryclaw. "So..well, first problem, getting them out of the water. I don't think we necessarily have to scare them; if we can.." Crystalgaze's ears shot up, as if she had another idea. "If we tell them we've decided to give up the territory, we can have them swim Redkit over, so he's safe instead of the risk of drowning himself trying to get out. Then they're also out of the water, and then hopefully we have tactics and are strong enough to defeat them on land. If the dam is that urgent, we can send someone disabled, like me, over to destroy the dam, or wait until the beavers are dead."
