He scrambled to his paws and the wet feeling under his paws answered the question for him. "Oh no!" He looked at Blackfrost only concern in his amber eyes as he nudged her urgently out of the den. "Come on! We need to get to higher ground fast!" He sounded calm about this, but on the inside, he was scared. He liked water but not like this. This was just scary, but he dared not let it show, not now.

With Crowhawk nudging her outside of the den, Blackfrost hurried out into the open, greeted by the pure chaos and terror that laid out before them - cats flailing in terror as water engulfed them, swallowing them up like a monster of darkness, queens fleeing through the mud as kittens squealed in their jaws. It was terrible and it made the black-and-white she-cat shake in horror, but she wanted to get her mate to safety first. “Come on, I need to get you to higher ground with the others and then I need to help them.” She urged the male, looking to her mate with fear and desperation lurking within her emerald eyes, “I cannot lose you like everyone else..” Blackfrost noticed the ground crumbling out beneath her and the warrior uttered yelp of horror as she was sent into the cold, deep and darkened water.

Mintpaw scampered from the apprentice den quickly, and tried to run to higher ground. The problem was, he hadn't expected the water to already be the high, so he sunk down into the muddy waters with a startled yelp. He trashed his paws, the water instantly getting soaked until his thick pelt, making it feel heavy even as he was still under the water. He was able to touch the loose ground with his claws, slowly making his way to higher ground while making sure to keep his face above the water.
Now, he was one to only think of himself and in the situation it seemed if he stopped he wouldn't last long, but he just couldn't help but worry what would happen to the kits and the elders. He had only recently gotten out of the nursery and he was having a really hard time with this, so the kits can't be doing very well either. And the elders were frail and stiff, they'd need help. After thinking, he had decided. He opened his mouth and shouted best he could over the sounds of rain and everything "Anyone need he-!" He wasn't able to finish, as something unexpectedly caught his paw and his whole body went under the muddy water. He yelpped, water filling his mouth and he tried to get on his feet again.

Pricklevine felt soaked to the bone as her pelt hung full of mud and water. She made her way across camp as quick as she could. She had no doubt that this had happened for a reason, nothing just happens with Starclan around, but that doesn't mean she was gonna let any cat die or get hurt when she could help. She perked her ears, doing her best to listen over the sound of heavy rain falling and water moving. The ground under her paws was loose and she sunk into it, that made it hard to move as it would move over he paws and they'd get stuck. But, she kept moving around camp looking for any cat who needed help.

Redfeather was rapidly being pushed down by water and choking on it his claws where clawing at it . Suddenly he saw a cat looking around 'pricklevine!' The tom meowd loudly but was closed off by more water " pricklevine! Halp please I can't swim please! " he yelled in his deep voice . Another wave splashed down on him and came back up gasping for air.

These cats were apart of their clan and they were all a family that helped one another. He turned back to the smaller she-cat and nodded. “Alright, alright. We can help who we can.” Pinewhisker said, “Go towards the shallower side of camp and see if any cats are in need of help, like kittens that got separated or whatnot. I’m going to try and save some cats in the deeper waters over there.” The lean male turned on his paws, about to leap into the water, but turned his head to look at Needlescar. “Be careful out there, please. I don’t want this to be the last time we speak.” He said, blinking at her before he dived into the muddy water.

[So what were you thinking for the cute saving-plot thingy you had?]

Needlescar pinned ear back as she saw cats in the water, some closer to drowning than others. She looked at Pinewhisker, who seemed to be also noticing. Her loyalty to her Clan kicked in as she fluffed out her pelt, it'd provide a tiny bit of protection against the cold and muddy water. Needlescar swallowed dryly, seeing her Clanmates flailing helplessly in the cruel waves. The kits were her main focus, their tiny bodies weren't built to swim and they were frail. "Okay!" She mewed, glad he wasn't objecting to her idea of saving their Clanmates. "Gotcha." She mewed softly, eyeing the nursery. She wanted to save any life she could, it wasn't worth loosing kits because she was too weak to save them. "Okay.. be careful." She mewed softly, giving him a little nuzzle before stepping towards the water. "I-I will. I don't want this to be the last time, either." She mewed, a tiny smile on her face before she dove into the water. She was a decent swimmer, for the most part.

Daypaw was calm surprisingly. They knew something like this would come. It was like a moment of "I told you so." was their opinion. They hated Starclan, it was easy to blame them for this. Even the thought of them left a bitter taste in their mouth. How could their ancestors do this? Let cats die at the thread that they held above them, and cutting it. Only letting to wash away as quickly as they had gotten up. Their patients were being taken care of, they scanned the clearing for any cats in need of help. They were small, they were nothing. But they wanted to to do something. They saw a molly at the other end of the clearing. Still. Not moving. Daypaw ran towards her, a wave rippled and splash under every step they took. They held their breath, all it took was one wrong step for them to slip and wash away into the current. Finally, after was felt like a war zone, they reached the warrior. "Dont just stand there!" the enby snapped, tail lashing. Shadowclan didnt have exactly much time until everything here washed away, disappearing as quickly as it appeared. How could any warrior stand there, when there were other cats that could use her help. It made Daypaw furious, but they pushed it away and spoke loudly over the thundering ran, authority in their voice despite being an apprentice,"You need to get to high ground before you get yourself killed."

Marshfur looked at the cat. Her mind was blank. She didn't realise what they were saying like her brain just wouldn't register it. She looked at them, face blank, monotone. She stayed still. She could read their mouth, their words were muted, though Marshfur could see they were struggling to shout over the storm. They looked angry. Normally, Marshfur would flinch at even the slightest rise of a voice, cower at even the slight tang of a harsh tone. But she just blinked, looking at the cat like she'd never seen them in her entire life. She knew it was the medicine cat, Daypaw, she could spot her out of a crowd, but still, even with the sharp tongue and harsh authority the cat held, Marshfur stood there like it was any other day and she wasn't about to be engulfed in a huge torrent of water. She didn't struggle against the current or even look confused. She just looked dead.

Tearing her gaze from Daypaw, she looked around the clearing. Everywhere, cats were clamouring for safety, trying to get to higher ground, shouting at one another, trying to get those who couldn't walk themselves out before the camp was completely swallowed in the black, muddy abyss. Marshfur didn't feel scared or worried. She felt content, happy even, that this was happening, that StarClan was giving her an excuse to perish. To be with her family again. She was so scared to do it herself, it seemed like a blessing that this was happening to her, although a curse to everyone else.

Pinewhisker was relieved when their pace towards the drier land was quickened as Bumbledawn started to assist him, his paws kicking under the murky, darkened water with his own. The mud that washed into his eyes made him want to cry out in pain, but the male knew that if he did that, the cat he was saving would be lost from his grasp, so he held on. He fought through the pain and the terror inside of him, but adrenaline pumped through his veins and the warrior didn’t stop. “Almost there..” He mumbled through the warrior’s scruff, one of his paws flashing out to grip onto the land, but the mud soon broke away and the tom-cat hissed in frustration, using all the strength he had to pull Bumbledawn up and somewhat heave him up onto the drier land until the soaked warrior could get a grip. He let go of his scruff and heaved the other male’s flank with his muzzle, boosting him onto the dry surface. “Come on, pull yourself up there!” Pinewhisker shouted to Bumbledawn, “You’re almost there, I won’t let anyone drown!” There seemed to be strict fear in his tone and the tom was certain to let anyone he found live to see another day.

A heavily pregnant Feathermist, fear racing through her entire body, walked as fast as she could without slipping in the mud and water beneath her paws. She glanced around, searching for anyone she knew, her mother or mate preferably, but as long as she knew them it would be perfectly fine. "Great Starclan where did all this rain come from?!" she hissed aloud. The Maine-coon she-cat's coat was caked to her sides with water and mud, and she hoped that her kits were okay as she kept moving, still searching for anyone she may know. Secretly she hoped that it would be one of her family members she spotted first, as any of the undesirables' help would not be accepted by her. She was much too proud for that. If Feathermist had to, she would walk all the way to the twoleg place before she allowed any cat that wasn't cis gendered or heterosexual to help her.

Daturakit

[OPEN RP]
[Warning, offensive phrasing/beliefs below]

The young kit's normally white and gray pelt was turned brown with all the mud. She was standing on a rock in the clearing, looking around frantically for anyone to help her, as the water seemed to be too deep for her to walk through. "Momma!" she yelled, fear lacing her voice. The young kit didn't know what to do. She was too young to swim, and the mud caked her fur so she was hard to see in the storm. Was this her end? Was she to die before her life even began? No. That would not be her end. She gathered her strength, and jumped off her rock, heading toward what high ground she could see. It was difficult to keep her head above water, but she was succeeding. Well, sorta.. "Help!" she yowled as she felt her back paw get caught on something under the water.

Nightleap

[OPEN RP]

Nightleap scrambled, trying to help Goldeneye get the clan out of the flooding camp. She moved like a shadow through the storm, attempting to help all she could despite her exhaustion and malnourishment. The black she-cat would rather herself die than any of her clanmates; even Peachfuzz and his family,
despite their strange beliefs. It was very hard for her to see, however,
as she moved through the mud and water. Nothing would stop her though.

"Feathermist!" Echoskip spotted her sister, stepping forward before hearing the kit. Her head snapped over to stare at the kitten and she was conflicted. She had to help her sister, but the kitten was so helpless. She began breathing heavily, unsure of who to help first. Then, she made her decision. "I'm coming, Daturakit!" She called out, stumbling towards the small kitten and picking her up. Holding her up high, Echoskip looked over at Moonsplash. "We gotta go help Feathermist." She called over, her voice muffled by the kit's fur.

The warrior had been born with it, and she used to think it would slow her down in life, but not anymore. As she was thinking, the she cat peered around the camp to see if there were any other felines in need of help. Spiderlegs rose up and began to drag herself to the near by nursery in order to help take kits. She looked in with her greenish grey eyes and mewed a, "hello? Does anyone need help escaping?" Granted, it was a kinda strange question and a bit dark one at that, but that was what they were doing... escaping from the dangerous waters that were to soon engulf the camp. She took a deep breath and exhaled wondering if she would be the only one helping the kits and queens.
@Constellation

''There's no one there.'' A deep voice echoed, rather darkly than he intended. He was running past the black she cat, almost bumping into her. He found it absolutely insane that she was sticking back instead of helping herself! Didn't she want to live? The tom shook his head, his bent tail tip twitching as he wanted to live. He wanted to run. Water never suited him, even if he enjoyed an occasional swim, but this was insane. The downpour was real. They were being evacuated from their home, and it worried him. ''You have to escape!'' Sure, helping kits were a priority, and Grizzlyprint would had done it himself, but panicking was another thing. Everyone was panicking. Everyone was running for their life. Grizzlyprint didn't want to come off as being...well, selfish. Because he wasn't. He was a sufficient tom that was very independent. He hardly ever needed anything from his clan, but once bumping into this she cat. Like literally bumping into her.Trying to push past her, brushing past her to escape himself, but he kept running. His eyes looked back at her, but he turned heel and he sped off. Danger was beyond the matter. Grizzlyprint hardly panicked...but this was an issue to panic about.

[Teggy]

@BluBunny thought this might be good for Cloud and storm!


''Cloudfeather?!'' Stormheart yowled, worry clear in here cry. The evacuation for ShadowClan had left everyone in a panic, and Stormfeather was one of those paniced cats. She would have moved around faster if it weren't for the lifes that were inside her.

''Cloudfeather!!" she called out again.

[Leucos]

Finaly the tom gave up and caught his paw on a rock and pulled himself on to the rock and choked and caughed out water redfeather headed towards the med den until he fell and felt a sting in his left paw and meowed loudly " Fox dung! I broke my paw! " he yelled at the top of his lungs and limped towards the medicine den.

"Let's try to get up there, it may be the highest ground we have in the camp." She said, flicking her tail with worry. "Have you seen Tempestjay?" She asked, turning to face Moonsplash, concern written all over her face. "I couldn't bear it if our closest friend didn't survive the flood," She confessed, adjusting her grip on the ground so she wouldn't slip and fall. The cat cared for Tempestjay a great deal, even though they were only friends. With him being the father of Echoskip's kits and helping her keep her secret safe from her family, she and Tempestjay had an intriguing relationship. He was only ever a friend to her, her eyes only for Moonsplash, and in this moment of terror for Echoskip she could only think of Tempestjay and Moonsplash. She wasn't used to being terrified, feeling meek and useless.

Moonsplash followed Echoskip's gaze, her pounding heart was slowly becoming normally paced again. The she-cat saw the deputy, nodding to her mates words. "It seems like the safest option, i'll help you." Moonsplash mewed, nodding her head. Her tail was lashing as she hoped one of Echoskip's family members didn't come up, as she hated always lying about their love. "I don't think so." She mewed, worry edging her tone. "Neither could I, he's a great cat, keeping us a secret and being so kind and all.." she mewed, concern was on her features as she looked behind her. Though it meant more lying, Moonsplash greatly appreciated the tom. He was the one granting the same-sex couple beautiful little kits which, even though they weren't hers, she'd love with all her heart. They were friends, Moonsplash reminded herself when she first met him and she'd felt jealous, but it was clear to her in the present. He was a good, friendly cat. Moonsplash wasn't used to feeling so, frightened, meek. "We'd better go before the waterises more!" She mewed, gently helping her mate make her way towards their destination.
