petalwish charged in at the signal and jumped at the nearest shadowclan cat (open!)

Magnoliapetal felt the weight of a cat on her shoulder as a she-cat launched herself onto her, cursing as she staggered back. "Why you- ladies should never start fights!" She angrily unsheathd her claws and aimed for Petalwish's eyes, already quite offended by her savage behavior. She would expect this much eagerness to battle from a tom, but a molly? shame. She was going to regret it. "Riverclan fish-breaths and your stupid unladylike ways-"

Being faster than she looked, Creekleap slipped out of his reach and lunged to bite his tail. @Casper

At least he wouldn't be able to miss that way.

Fogpaw quickly moved away from the other apprentices front to where he was standing behind him. The apprentice tried to whack the cat upside the head and quickly backed up. He kept a great distance away from him before attempting to strike his chest again before backing up again. "Getting irritated?", Fogpaw asked with a angry yowl.

The RiverClan warrior stands over the body of the now-deceased cat, watching as blood pulsed out of what they'd thought was only a minor bite... Shock has no place in Sassafrasfire's mind though. Instead, a great nothingness spreads like a blanket over their mind as they watched the ShadowClan warrior pass away. They'd done this. As the fur at their paws begins to soak a dark cherry red, they turn to look around at the rest of the battling felines, momentarily very very still. {OPEN}

"Jaykit!" Nettlespark cries out again, finally getting to the little tom. He might not have been anything like Icestar or the other larger cats of ShadowClan, but the warrior and his thick coat of long fur could look damn big if he needed to. Standing over his little sibling, his fur prickles and begins to stand on edge. It was a wonder he wasn't named Thistlespark instead, as he began to look rather... Spiky. Stepping over Jaykit so that he was entirely above him, the warrior snarls at their immediate surroundings defensively, tail thrashing about in a furious flurry.

To the kit beneath him, Nettlespark lowers his voice. "Can you stand up and walk on your own." He had to know whether or not he'd only need to cover for his brother as they crept their way to the nursery, or if this was going to be a mad dash with Jaykit in his jaw.

"I was already planning to do that." He growled. Bloodtooth slunk through the reeds and attempted to strike Goosepaw in the neck.

Sparrowpaw nodded, satisfied with the damage they had given Sootpaw. "Good," she mewed silkily. With that, Sparrowpaw leaped off Sootpaw and whirled around.

Sootflare, RiverClan's deputy, had called for his cats in a loud, commanding yowl. Sparrowpaw repressed a rippling shiver of unease and gazed down at her blood-drenched paw. This can't be good.

He was pinned beneath Honeypaw, unable to move no matter how much he struggled. Bloodtooth's claws raked through his neck and he howled. How was he losing? These cats were supposed to be injured!
He managed to twist out from underneath Honeypaw and launched himself a Bloodtooth, striking the warrior in the face as many times as he could. Rage burned in the eye he could open. "Your- slash "Clan-" slash "took-" slash "my-" slash "home-" slash "away-" slash "FROM ME!" He finished with a roar and a final, heavy blow aimed to knock Bloodtooth to his paws.

Bloodtooth stood where he was, enduring each blow. He crumpled to the ground, but then stood up, turned around, and aimed a kick to Goosepaw's face with all his might. Even though his newly found scars were screaming with pain, he was going to make sure this stupid cat got what he deserved.

(btw i aim for petalwish to be seriously wounded or maybe killed in this battle, so yeah.) the slash hit petalwish directly across the eyes, immediately blinding her. she shrieked in agony as the claws tore at her eyes, ruining them permanently. she fell to the ground and groaned in agony. @Mayflower

Hailstorm was surprised at the warrior's speed, but managed to yank her tail away in time, only losing a tuft of fur. The gray warrior was quick to round on Creekleap again, swatting at her face and aiming to pummel her with her heavy paws.

(OPEN!)

Ivyshine charged into ShadowClan's camp, well-rested and green eyes blazing with a emerald fire. She let out a caterwaul and flung herself into battle. She would not disappoint her new clan. She knew Leopardblaze and Eagleflower were somewhere in the battle, but where, she had no idea. Without time to think, she launched herself at the nearest ShadowClan warrior, dappled tail streaming behind her.

~~~

Rabbithop heard fighting outside the den and he groaned. He was in no state to fight. What was ThunderClan doing back so soon? He turned to Irisflame, eyes wide but not panicked. Even under pressure, the white tom didn't lose his nerve. Though he could now stand and walk, one well-aimed blow and it would be over. "What do you need me to do?" He asked the medicine cat.

(OPEN)
Flintfreckle watched as the cats streamed in. ThunderClan, back already? No, the fishy smell of RiverClan hit him in the face and he snarled defiantly. Thinking of Sagedust and his unborn kits, he leapt in front of the nursery with a defiant yowl. "Flea-ridden Mange-pelts!" He snarled out, shoulders squared as he prepared for the oncoming onslaught. He could only hope Frostpaw didn't get hurt in this battle.

Sparrowpaw whipped around: Goosepaw was engrossed in slashing viciously at Bloodtooth, and although the large black tom seemed to be joyously enduring the blows, instant anger flowed through Sparrowpaw, her pelt hot and spiking with fury. She dropped into a crouch and let her hooked claws dig into the earth.

"Kill him, Bloodtooth!" she commanded her mentor. "Kill him!"
