Birdpaw watched as Kestrelstar threatened the big cat, but the big cat didn't listen. He was yelling about his mom, but the blood in her face prevented the ragdoll from feeling bad. She was upset about her mom but she didn't try to kill anyone, so he shouldn't be like this. And Creamfrost was trying to make her keep fighting?! She shook her head vigorously at the tomcat, and left it at that.

Then, the mean cat got away from Kestrelstar, and jumped at her again. She shrank away from his claws, but then he seemed to lose interest in her and instead went after a kit. Birdpaw was relieved but also wished she had taken those claws instead of the kit. But then Kestrelstar grabbed the mean cat, and Birdpaw screwed her eyes shut, not knowing what was going to happen but certainly not wanting to watch.

When she looked back up, the mean cat was being carried away by Wormbite, and Kestrelstar was now looking at her. He looked worried. Wiping the blood out of her eyes, the shallow wounds on her forehead weren't her concern. The sticky red stuff pooling out of the clawmarks on her chest were more of her concern, dripping like a terrifying rain. Feeling slightly bewildered- this had all happened so fast- Birdpaw looked around, panic filling her expression as the pain finally blanketed the adrenaline.

''It hurts, though.'' She breathed as her buddy assured her that it was going to be fine. ''It hurts. I've never hurt like this before.'' The blood was coming so fast and her eyes pooled with tears. Okay, Plummy. She knew her. She knew Plummy from that meeting with Bearspot. Quickly finding the silver tabby, Birdpaw, desperate for comfort, shot forward, wrapping her arms around Plummy and probably staining the warrior's fur with blood (oopsies) She buried her face into the Shield's fur and tried to hide from the dead body, the yelling cats and her own wounds.
