Bumblestar dragged Roseraven and Ghostwhisperer out of camp with her. She’d offered little explanation to them when she had tugged them away from whatever they had been doing in camp, but the anger that practically radiated from her in waves should have been enough to clue them in that something was wrong.
Her paws met soft grass and she skirted the edge of the pond, moving right to the buried bundle of herbs, where she dug it up once more and jabbed a paw at it.
“Poison,” she spat.
“Shypaw found a RiverClan cat leaving this in our territory. My guess is they’re pissed we grabbed Cattail Pond and they’re trying to get payback in the most cowardly way possible. Wolfpaw's already been affected, there's no telling if any other cats have yet, but that means prey's already been poisoned and I don't wanna let it sit for any longer. Taking this to Drizzlecloud later.”
She reburied the bundle, tail whipping behind her.
“I followed the scent across the border but it went too far to go on my own. You two are gonna help me find their camp so I can deal with ‘em. I’m anticipating a trek. Keep up with me, I know which scent to follow.” Should’ve brought ragweed. Too late now, she’d pick some up on the way back.
[ Keep this brief!! This should move pretty rapidly, your posts do not have to be long at all; will be moving from Cattail Pond (1 round of posts) to Windswept Plains (2 rounds of post) to Rugged Range (1 round of posts) where we’ll finish up. Laspes in response longer than 24 hours will get you skipped, just to ensure things are progressing smoothly. ]
