At Camp:
Heatherfrost walks out of the space and turns her gaze, once again, to the sky. The sun had sunk lower. "Darkfrost, please don't leave." Her voice was pleading, full of concern. She didn't want to lose him and she knew the risks of him going off to fight. "You're the only person I have." Heatherfrost nuzzled him and pressed her face into his chest.

The Forest:

Blackthistle glared at Silverstorm for a second before speaking to the other cats. "Sagestorm will be bait. He will run the dogs into the fallen tree while either jumping over or sliding under the tree. When the dogs run into the tree, warriors from the tree tops will drop down and attack aerial." Aspenstar cocks his head at Blackthistle, wondering how that could work.

"It seems like something we couldn't do but we can't try clan strategies on dogs. They will kill us." Aspenstar nodded, "we will try this. For the sake of those lost and those yet to come." The tom looked at Sagestorm sadly, " let's kill these mutts." The huge cat ran onto the side of the path and climbed a tall tree.[/size]

Blackthistle knew the tom was supposed to be in camp but he understood. "Take a tree top. Sagestorm," he gestured to the gray tom, "is going to lead the dogs down that path, right for the tree." He paused, letting it sink in. "When the dogs run into the tree, we drop down and attack them Aerial."

He then looked at Sakura, "I won't. Just stay with me," He led the tortieshell she-cat up the tree and awaited their moment.[/size]

Blackthistle took a deep breath. All along, he knew that Sagestorm belonged to Aspenstar; it was pretty obvious. He had considered taking Sagestorm's place but he was not fast, the whole mission would be jeopardized with him at the head of a dog. He rolled his shoulders and yowled to Sagestorm, watching him walk out into the dog's territory.

.

When Blackthistle yowled beside him, Aspenstar watched his only son pad out into the dog territory, knowing that the only reason he agreed to doing so was because of his anger. Starclan, be with him... I can't let him die under my supervision. The Elmclan leader thought of Jasminepetal and Silverfog, they needed Sagestorm. He couldn't let anything happen to him.

..

Heatherfrost ran in front of Anitalon as he tried to walk out. "No, Acaciastar said no. And I'm saying no too. You can't go." Anitalon growled at the she-cat and lashed his tail, "you aren't my mother." He pushed past her, but to no avail. The warrior pushed her way in front of him again, "go back to the den." Anitalon huffed at her and turned away, trying to think of how he could get out without her noticing.

Aspenstar dropped down as well, landing on the side of a deceased dog. He turned, a huge dog coming for him. It's face was dark, brooding. His fur was dark, long; eyes even darker. The dogs expression was deadly and his lips foamed. "Looks like I've met my match." The tom leaps under the dogs belly, catching him off guard and slicing wildly at his member and ribs.

The dog wastes no time, laying down on Aspenstar and crushing the breath out of him. Aspenstar fights back, taking a huge chunk of skin out of the dogs side. The dog whines and backs away before running straight at Aspenstar, who takes a final slash at the dog's neck.

It lay limp at his paws.

.

Blackthistle looks to Sakura, "do not come down from this tree." He knew she would die. Sakura wasn't as strong as the other cats were. She held no chance. The black tom jumped down onto the ground, rolling as he made contact. [/size]

Heatherfrost nodded to Goldstrike. "He was. But, I won't let him get out of here."

Anitalon looked the walls up and down, his mind working hard to devise an escape plan.

ooc: You're a monster... like I'm really sad right now... I can't believe this tbh. It's just like when fucking sandstorm died.

Heatherfrost freezes up, her heart skipping a beat. She could only think about Darkfrost. "I have to go." She says aloud. Anitalon turns around. "No. Darkfrost will be too angry with us. I can't let you leave." He pushes the she-cat back. "You'll be killed, Heatherfrost. You can't go." Heatherfrost sits down, still frozen.
...
Blackthistle watches Acaciastar drag the tom away and lowers his head. He knew he should have told Darkfrost to go back to camp. He watches the she-cat claw through the other dogs and watches her silently, making sure she doesn't run into any trouble.
...
Aspenstar didn't have time to look around, busy fighting off yet another dog. His claws were filthy from blood and dog hair. The scent of blood covered him.[/size]

Aspenstar watches his son run from the dog and immediately kills the dog in front of him, taking off after his son as he does. The dog is running him straight over that cliff. Aspenstar speeds up, trying to catch up with them as fast as he can.

...

Blackthistle charges after a dog running for Acaciastar and jumps on it's back, biting down hard on its ear as he does.

...

Heatherfrost pads into the warriors den, ignoring the other cats.[/size]

ooc: he better not die. Goldstrike is one of my favorites.

Anitalon hisses and dashes after his friend, finding him bloodied around the neck. "Goldstrike!" He yells, wincing at the neck wound. "We have to get you back to camp." Sadness grows at the pit of his heart and he looks to Blackthistle that stands and stares. "Help me." Anitalon says, as if the cat is stupid.

Blackthistle nods and helps Anitalon push the golden tom on his back. "You're not staying here, Anitalon." Anitalon narrows his eyes at Blackthistle but does not object. The two cats run back to camp. "Astrantiapool, we need to help him now!" Anitalon says loudly, "please. I know you can do it. Please, please, please. He's the only friend I have."

Blackthistle backs away, heading back out into the forest to fight.

..

Aspenstar jumps on the dogs back, causing him to yelp. "Sagestorm! Get back to the forest!" The Elmclan leader struggles to keep himself on the large dog's back.[/size]

Aspenstar yowls for Sagestorm to get out of the way as the dog runs at him once more. He leaps down, pushing Sagestorm out of the way. "Stay b-" the dog collides with Aspenstar, sending them both over the cliff. The dog howls, letting go of Aspenstar as they fall.

At the foot of the cliff, Aspenstar falls; carried away by the river below. The last thing he sees is his son standing above.

...

"Aspenstar."
The leader opens his eyes to the world of Starclan. "Aspenstar." He looks around wildly. "I'm dead, aren't I?" He asks, sadness thick in his voice. "Yes, you saved your sons life." The former Elmclan leader turns around to see his mother, Iris. "Mom." He says, quietly. "Yes."

Aspenstar flicks his tail and then freezes. "Will my clan be okay?" He asked, scared. Iris nods to him, "Firesong will make a terrific leader. You have no need to worry for them." He nods at her, "what about my family?" Iris smiles at him, "Sagestorm will forever remember what you have done for him. Now come, let's meet the others."

(I will have updates for those to read in the news box. I do believe Sorrelcreek is the medicine cat... I don't really know where she is right now.)[/size]

Blackthistle slowly walked into the dogs and slashed one at the throat, anger the only emotion he could feel. Rain poured down around him. The dog nipped angrily at his face, but to no avail. Blackthistle dodged and slipped under the dog, slashing his stomach hard until it fell on it's side. [/size]

Blackthistle feels his heart drop and he stares at Sagestorm with pain in his eyes. "Aspenstar..." He growls to himself and walks off, heading straight for Elmclan camp.

Blackthistle padded into the warriors den, watching the other cats from the opening. He couldn't believe he had lost his friend. The tom rested his head on his paws and closed his eyes, feeling the pain in his heart crumbling him.[/size]

Anitalon flinched at Darkfrost's body and lowered his head. It was less than a week ago when he went on a patrol with the tom. His heart beat slowed and his stomach flipped. "No." Anitalon's head shot up at Heatherfrost's voice. "No, no, no." She ran to the tom's side and pushed her face into his chest. "Darkfrost, no." She put her paw on his face and knead it gently.

"For Starclan's sake." The she-cat yelled out, her voice cracking. She didn't even notice the rain as it poured, Heatherfrost didn't care if she froze to death. You promised you would come back... I can't do this by myself. Her eyes closed and she lay by his side, ignoring the bite wounds in his stiff neck.[/size]

Blackthistle hid his face in Sakura's shoulder and closed his eyes, remembering when he and Aspenstar would run around camp teasing Silverfog and her... before all of this, when times had just begun to make happy. "I'm sorry..." He whispered, as if Aspenstar was right there to listen to him. Blackthistle wished he could go back and change everything.[/size]

Blackthistle looked at Firesong and padded out into the clearing, waiting for the clan meeting to start. He could barely even think without his mind wandering back to his dead friend. The warrior looked up at Firesong, hoping that the deputy chosen would hold the clan up as it should be.

Blackthistle acknowledged Sakura with a long blink, knowing she was trying her best to make him feel better. The warrior listened to Firesong's words and felt his heart surge at the thought of never seeing his friend again. He missed him...[/size]

Anitalon moved to Acaciastar's side and stayed silent, still a bit shocked that Darkfrost was dead. At leat Goldstrike is still alive... He closed his eyes and rested his head on the warrior's back.

Heatherfrost fell asleep (permission to receive starclan visit from Darkfrost?)

Blackthistle woke the next morning, curled around Sakura protectively. Since there was no body to grieve, the cats closest to Aspenstar decided to stay in their rightful dens... Because, he wouldn't want them to do something like that anyways. The warrior nuzzled the she-cat and stood up, padding out into the camp. A light frost covered the ground and he sighed, knowing that only bad things could come after this...[/size]
