Oh no, he thought as a wave of sympathy washed over him at her words. The feeling was followed and overwhelmed by panic, though, at her next words and her steps toward the water. The large tom had never been in a situation such as this, and he certainly had no experience in comforting someone; he'd have to try, though. This she-cat seemed to have been through a lot, losing three kits. Bearblaze felt mud beginning to cake his own fur, his large paws covered in it and feeling the fowl substance get caught between his toes. "Listen," he began, unsure of how to go about the situation, "I'm sure StarClan isn't angry with you. It would take more than one cat's actions to cause this if it's StarClan's anger, and from what I see, you wouldn't have done anything horrible. If you don't even know what you did, you must not have anything that would cause a storm like this." He didn't even know this she-cat, but he couldn't help but feel horrible for her, seeing the state she was in. He knew it might take much more than a few of his words to convince the molly, but that's all he could do, and he had to try. "This flooding is not your fault. If you stay here much longer, the water will get to you. Please, come with me." He was desperate. He didn't want to lose a Clanmate when he could've saved her, and she certainly didn't deserve death. He could only hope she'd listen to him. It was obvious that loosing three kits had taken its toll on her, and all Bearblaze wanted right now was to get her to safety. It looked as if she was getting dangerously close to the water, and the muddy, soaked warrior wanted - no, needed - to get her to come with him. Her talk of death scared him to no end, and if she jumped in that water, he wouldn't be able to follow. His fur would weigh them both down if he tried. "Please." @Stormfeather {Foxxi} Feeling himself becoming weighed down by the water, Bearblaze found it tiring to wade through water that was this deep, but he knew that if he slowed down he'd certainly be swept away by the water. He couldn't swim, and his heavily soaked fur would likely become his demise if that were to happen. The thought made him press on; if he ended up getting engulfed by the freezing water, he wouldn't be able to make sure Fallenfeather got out safely - he wouldn't be able to forgive himself if something horrible happened to his Clanmate while he was so close by, whether he had the ability to save them or not. "Are you doing alright, Fallenfeather?" He asked, looking over to his companion. He had to ask. If she needed assistance or was becoming tired, he had to help her. |

The tortoiseshell she-cat's fur grew hot with embarrassment as Whitestep continued to show her gratitude. As the queen asked her the question, Amberstorm stopped to think for a moment. "Leafclaw?" Amberstorm echoed. "Well, I guess not. In fact, I haven't really seen or talked to Leafclaw in a while, now that I think about it. I'm sorry, Whitestep." |

Leafclaw worked his claws on the ground, and his eyes darted from her to the side. "I've been m-meaning to tell you, Whitestep," he started. "Uh-huh?" Whitestep looked up at him with wide, shining eyes. "I was wondering if you maybe would like to be m-m-mates." Whitestep touched her nose to his. "I'd like that Leafclaw." "You would?" "Of course," Whitestep replied as she pulled away. That was the day they became mates. Whitestep looked wistfully out of the log and to the camp. She heard no wails from a familiar tom. She heard no calling. Her claws tightened on the ground. "Amberstorm," Whitestep murmured. "Can you keep me company? If the water rises I might need more help." |

Sensing the she-cat's disappointment, Amberstorm dipped her head, her heart aching for the queen's lost mate. "Of course I will," she mewed gently. "And don't worry -- everything's going to be fine. You'll be reunited with him soon. I can feel it." Of course, Amberstorm wasn't confident in that statement at all, but it didn't show in her tone and she smiled, holing it would make Whitestep feel better. |

Re: ShadowClan Evacuation
@starfall @woly It happened so fast. Too fast. Marshfur didn't notice it at first until she looked to her right and the golden warrior was no longer there. Suddenly everything was crisp and clear and she was on full alert, she whipped around, scanning the land behind them, hissing as her wounds stung and burned. She could barely see, but soon she did spot Morningpath, half eaten by the void blackness that had tried to eat moments ago. Her eyes widened, but she couldn't find her voice. She tried to scramble back and grab him, but he was suddenly out of reach and water was lapping at her legs again. What had happened? Why had he just gone? Marshfur's mind was gone again, her sore legs scrambling backwards to the top of the hill, slipping on the slick ground as she tried to get herself back up, while also trying to find the tom that'd saved her. It was so dark, and she was so blind. Morningpath's body was nowhere to be found. She wanted to scream out to him, but she was slipping, and soon the muddy waters would be trying to suck her in again, and this time it just might succeed. Marshfur hissed and whimpered as the terrain scraped her paw pads and her legs, making them more bruised, bloodier. Tears bubbled at her water lines, eyes still frantic for the golden tom. Morningpath had been there one moment and just gone the next as if he hadn't been real. But Marshfur knew, she'd watched the flood swallow him and drag him below the freezing depths. She didn't even know him, but she didn't want to believe he had just given in, just died like that. But if she didn't move, the water would most certainly eat her, just as it had planned to. She turned around, about to shout for Daypaw, but found herself sliding and clawing at the ground, her back legs and tail already being dragged into the water. She yowled for Daypaw, barely audible above the storm and the commotion, her throat hurt. Her claws left marks in the dirt, no matter if she made progress, the flood was still growing and rushing, trying to take her life with all the others it was so greedily taking. |
Re: ShadowClan Evacuation
[OPEN TO ONLY 1] And no, Daypaw is NOT dying. Daypaw checked the medcat den one last time. Every last cat had been taken out. Every living being had been passed off for a warrior to help them up, Daypaw ushering up them the entire way. They made it up the hill and down many times to make sure every last patient of theirs had made it safely. Mud caked their body, running up all their legs and their belly fur with contrasted their light cream colored fur. They looked tired. They didnt know the last time they had slept, they didnt know the last time they had eaten anything. They could close their eyes and pass out, and let their body be washed away by the current outside. Their paws hurt from climbing up and down the hill, it was becoming a struggle to breath. Their den was washed out, unsalable herbs floating in the still water, everything Daypaw had worked so hard for go as quickly as they had picked it. They made their way outside of the den, feeling the rain pierce their body like cold daggers. Their fur clung close to their frame. Daypaw was aggressive at times to cats, but right now they just looked small. Small and scared. They had no one to rely on, no mentor to reside in and tell them what to do. Their clan was falling apart infront of their eyes, and Day knew once they reached the top they had injuries to take care of right away. This was going to be a long day. They huffed, continuing to walk outside of the den. Everything was chaos. Cats were screaming for help, cats muddy and look exhausted. The rushing of water felt cool against Daypaws body, the water reaching up to their belly fir at this point. Thunder boomed above them, rain poured onto them but they kept walking against the current, placing one paw infront of another. Their movements were slow, giving out small groans at every step they took. They felt numb and felt everything at the same. They could hear the screaming, the storm, the struggling, the crying, kits away from their parents, but at the same time they felt nothing at all. This was Starclans fault and Daypaw knew it. They gritted their teeth and finally reached the hill. With all the strength in their body they leaped out of the water, claws digging into the murky mudslide that was the hill. They felt a jolt of pain rack through them, specifically their shoulders. they had carried many warriors up this hill single handedly and it was taking a tole. They kept scaling the hill though. They had no choice to, one simple slip would send them tumbling down the hill and into the fast paced water. The water looked so dark from up here, the current was fast, splashing against the side of the hill taunting Daypaw. No. They would do this. They had never felt so alone. They had never felt so scared. They had never felt so little. They could see the top of the hill, cats waiting for the rest of the clan to reach the top for safety. Daypaw smiled, they could heal their patients, they could be useful. No. No no no no. They felt their body weaken. They shivered, claws detaching themselves from the hill. They scrambled to keep hold, only for their paws to be met with slippery mud. Daypaw fell. They yowled, paw reaching out for anybody to take it-anybody, "No!" They screamed in protest, shouted and pleaded for anybody to help them. But they fell. Daypaw fell. They could feel the back of their back land poorly on their tumble down, aswel at the back of their head be hit by a slippery rock. They felt a rush of pain in those areas, like a migraine. Then all they felt was coldness. They opened their eyes and saw nothing but murky water. They tried to open their mouth to gasp for air, instead water filling their lungs with a stinging sensation. They saw something that calmed them. They saw their father,Moutianfog. They saw their mother, Marigoldfur. They saw Cricketpaw. Were they going to die here? Only to be washed away and had their body floating around in disrespect? They wanted to die with honor. They closed their eyes and let their body float for awhile, ling burning for air. They could let it go right now. No nightmares, no dealing with harmful cats, no stress. An anger. No pity from others. They could let it go. It felt relaxing to have the water carry them away. No. They couldnt. They had patients expecting them. They had cats to take care of. Shadowclan needed a medcat in this time, it would be selfish to leave. Their claws caught grip of a rock, hosting their head above the water. They gasped for air, giving a few chokes and water spurred out of their mouth in the process. |
