Garden of a New Begining

[Trashy Sky]

Skybird gave a slight nod to Halestorm, deciding to speak her thoughts as she listened to the other felines. "We could try to take back ThunderClan or WindClan first. They've sorta just been taken over and I bet the others there would be highly resenting the rule put in place at this moment." she suggested, looking around the group for their reactions to her statement for a soft moment. "The downside to this would be that the cats that don't resent the rule would be stronger then the ones in ShadowClan or RiverClan, due to the fact that they've had less time to... starve..." she added, her ears flicking as they swiveled around.

Glowy felt a bit of unease. Although she did want to join in, she didn't know too much about battle strategies. The molly knew how to do basic battle moves, yes, but not in-depth strikes and ideas. And definitely not leadership into battle- Halestorm should do that.

There were hints of ideas in the molly's head- like having the idea of spying on various clans to see their strengths and weaknesses- but that'd probably take too much time. Their plan was supposed to take place within a couple of days, not moons. If the evil leaders held their throne any longer, they'd completely destruct society. Even hers, probably. She looked up towards the older warriors, hoping that their experience and skills would fix the problems ahead.

Frogspirit was the next one to put in his opinion. Thinking long and hard and remembering back to all the rumors and announcements he's heard from cats within the clans, he finally had his mind set to something. "Riverclan would be our best bet," The black and white tom spoke up, looking between all the gathered cats. His yellow hues were filled with thoughts and he had to voice them now or he'll regret not saying anything. "Regardless of Bucknight's followers, if Riverclan is taken down, there will only be Shadowclan to worry about in when we take back Thunderclan or Windclan," he paused, his hues continuing to flick between the felines. "The warriors in Thunderclan and Windclan will still be weak or now that leaf-bare is here, going hungry with the lack of good territory making them weaker and less of a threat. Bucknight should be our number one target right now, once he's out of the picture, maybe, just maybe, the other clans will help revolt against their leaders. We just have to set the example," he pushed on. Now his gaze rested on Halestorm. It was really up to her what they did, but he could only hope his reasoning was enough to let her decide what was best for the sake of the clans.

Smokeblossom's yellow hues flitted back and forth between the conversing warriors. Her mind barely acknowledged th appearance of the new cat, but she pressed on. Her maw turned do wards, forming a slight frown. "But Frogspirit, if we are to set an example, why start with the strongest Clan there is? Think about it." She said pausing for a moment. "If Bucknight started this,Mayen obviously he will be the brains around everything. The master mind, the ine in charge. If he is the biggest enemy of them all, the few of us might not be able to take them all out. Maybe we should set and example with a less stronger Clan, like Thinderclan maybe. You two said that Thinderclan had been taken over recently, maybe we should start with one of those two?" She suggested, her voice calm, hoping not to stir up anger. If that's what it did though, Smokeblossom might loose it, drama was one thing she did not want to deal with right now.

[Soddenfur]

Sodden suppressed a low growl. He too had wanted to take back RiverClan first, but logic defied his whims. The prime reason the loner had stayed to fight was to ensure the safety of his kin still in the clans. It had taken a lot for him to consider even looking at those he abandoned. Sodden loathed the feeling he had been experiencing. He wasn't in control of anything and he didn't know what to do. "I say RiverClan," he retorted impulsively, "I understand what you're saying, but how do we know..." He paused for a moment. "How do we know the strengths of each individual clan? All of the clans are torn about this, so we can't approximate the amount of cats able-bodied or able-minded." Please tell me I sounded rational, he pleaded to himself, his tail flicking anxiously.

[SuspiciousMindz]

Frogspirit looked toward Smokeblossom with understanding in his eyes. Of course they couldn't take over the entire clan by shear force, they had to think logically. "We have to think rationally. You're right that we can't attack the clan, but we can set something up for Bucknight, lure him out with only a few of his warriors at the most," he spoke, it was dangerous no matter what they did, it was no doubt that some cats wouldn't back out of such a plan. "Shear force and going into the heart of Riverclan won't accomplish it, but don't think of Riverclan as a whole. Think of it as maybe..." he paused looking for the right words. "As maybe a few warriors with Bucknight as our target," Frogspirit let it out as minimal as possible despite what the clan really could be like. Perhaps they'd get a few allies within the clan before doing such a thing? Someone to help lure their evil leader out into the territory or on the border. His yellow hues shifted from the warrior and towards Sodden, relief in his gaze for the support he seemed to be giving him. He couldn't convince his side of the idea alone, he was grateful for the back up, even though Sodden looked prepared to hop right into a battle.

[AbsurdJinx]

Calia listened silently to the conversation that was really just nonsense to her. She was staring at Sodden's wound that worried her. Would he be okay rushing into battle with such a gash on his side? Of course, she thought silently. It was the thought of battle that convinced her otherwise. ``Oh my, all this talk of battle is driving me insane! Has anyone considered the consequences?`` She cried out, raising her head to be heard. Though the battle would most likely still happen, she needed them all to see what could happen. ``Cats will die!`` She snarled, her voice growing dark with sadness. Imagining all the bodies lying around due to these fights... she shivered.

She bit back a sob at the thought of all those deaths. Her tail was lying limply behind her, showing others her harsh voice was simply to gain attention when really, she was as sensitive as could be with this topic. ``Others will gain severe wounds - injuries that can change their lives forever.`` What if someone hurt a limb, and could never walk properly for the rest of their lives? This could affect hunting, and fighting. Calia folded her ears back at the haunting images, and she closed her eyes tightly as if this action would chase away the thoughts. With a discreet shake of her head, she opened her eyes and awaited the responses.

Stormheart looked at the molly.
"Have you ever been in a battle?" She asked, meaning no offense. The mollys large blue eyes where full of curiosity.
"Or have you ever seen one?" Stormheart tilted her head. (My posts are so small compared to your guy's XD I'll try to post more)

[Soddenfur]

Sodden returned Calia's stares and nodded determinedly, although he was grateful she cared enough to worry. "I understand what you mean, but there's more to it than that," he mewed, maintaining a sense of thought of their intentions in his voice, "None of us want to fight, I'm sure. Have you ever considered that if we don't fight, cats will die?" His expression grew darker as each morbid statement was thrown into the discussion.

(We will be moving to this thread once I post there!! Please finish up your Roleplays here!)

Halestorm nodded at her past apprentice, emerald green eyes watching the rest of the cats. She didn't want to scare them about the blood and torture they may face if their plan didn't succeed- she had to be smart about how they planned this attack. She shifted and bit her lip before speaking, "If you take down the leader of the corruption- the rest should crumble as well." she mewed, voice deeper than usual. The deputy sighed faintly. "It would be our best bet to tackle Riverclan first.

[Timeskip to a few days later]

The sun started to shine bright into the ex-deputy's eyes, making her shift in her bed of moss. She yawned, opening her eyes- she had not gotten much sleep because she had been so worried about how this day would play out. Would they find Riverclan today- or would it take them any more days to be able to return? She didn't quite remember how far away this garden was from the clans- and hoped it wasn't too far from where her home once was. She stood and walked to every cat in the Coalition, touching their head with her nose and waking them up.
Halestorm hoped they were ready for today- because in all honesty, she wasn't.
