Nightfur gave a hiss of rage, yet he only breathed heavily over the Apprentice, then stand back. "I won't lose my patience like a kit having a temper tantrum. Maybe you should go cool off, 'paw." Nightfur narrowed his eyes at the Apprentice. Big or not, he had more experience with fighting. He watched Badegerpaw's movements; if he tried anything he'd be ready.
Badgerpaw growled. "Well.maybe you should back off kit, because that's the way your acting right now. Picking a fight with an apprentice, Dawnstar's favorite one at that. If you ever slip up I hope I'm the one to end you.", he growled with a smirk. Maybe he shoukd go fidm his mentor. Maybe Grimhound could calm him down. Also he did have battle experince. He's killed four cats already.

Nightfur froze. Was he just called a kit?! He didn't want to show any anger, but he felt his fur raise. Fine. He wanted name-calling? He'd give him name calling. "Hmm, I wonder why your name's Badgerpaw? Aren't badgers big and smell like crow-food? I wondered what that smell was! Maybe you should go get your mommy, since you seem to not know how to groom yourself. And that attitude! Dear StarClan! I wouldn't be caught dead crying like a kittypet. And you're talking as if I can't rip you apart with ease. Being Dawnstar's favorite doesn't mean anything to me. Do you see her paying any attention to us? You're wasting your time is what you're doing. Kits are the only ones that start stupid fights, you know. And I won't lay a paw on you unless you put a paw on me."
Badherpaw wasn't pissed that he insulted him about his name, but he did insult Dawnstar about his name. she was the one that gave it to him when she took him in. "Are you disrespecting Dawnstar, bevause she's the one that named me Badger. You insult her again I swear. Who needs a mother. I go out looking gor her, but not in a way you think. Igo out to kill her like I killed that worthless brother of mine. I want to see her blood like I've seen the blood of those other pathetic rogues who's life ended by my claws. If your not careful you'll be next. Rogue or not., he snapped.

Nightfur smirked. "Oh, so you had another name before Badger, or did your mother just not name you at all? I thought your mother was supposed to be the one to name you." He felt a pain in his heart for the Apprentice, though. Did he see Dawnstar as his mother? Did his mother really not name him, or did he get a worse name than badger? He frowned. He felt guilt wash over him, and he didn't even start this argument! He sighed and backed away, turning to Larkwing. "Come on, let's leave before a fight really breaks out. I don't want to cause anymore trouble here." He glanced at Badgerpaw. "This conversation is over. Get yourself some prey and calm yourself, if you'd like." He got up and walked over to a more vacant section of the camp. Larkwing could follow if she wanted.
Tigerfang flicked his tail and stood up from his spot near the edge of the crowd. He flexed his claws into the ground. Were they leaving soon? Normally, he wouldn't really care for things like this, but he needed to blow off some steam. Anything to distract him from his current dilemma.
~~~~~
Bonekit still bounced in the middle of the crowd, trying to be seen and heard over his older clanmates. "I wanna goooo! I wanna gooooooooooo! Frogfang taught me moves, I can fight!!"

Larkwing watched the argument between Badgerpaw and Nightfur. When her mate stood up and left, she had no idea what to do or anything. So she followed a little ways. A cough bubbled up in her throat. She should go get some water.

Shadepaw sat for a moment he would rather be a fighter than a runner but he didn't mind, he then looked to Finchwhisker and asked "what are you going to do".

Of course an argument broke out from those sour about being rightfully punished with a harsh task. Idiots. At least Badgerpaw made all this worthwhile, the young tom was fascinating even if his pridefulness was to the point of gross stupidity and would no doubt one day bite him. Either attack the fool or dont, threatening them with Dawnstar did little given shed act or wouldnt regardless of any urging from an apprentice so it just made him seem all talk. And even if she did or didnt do anything arguing with cats like Nightfur (or Wormkit for that matter) was like arguing with a rock, you'd never get anywhere. "Settle Badgerpaw and let their dues come to them." He softly murmured eyes half closed. "Fools rarely see sense even when you explain it to them in detail. They will face consequences inevitably by claws and fangs, and if youre lucky you can have a paw in it, but for now theres little to do. Wait and soon we can sharpen our claws on dogs, that should be enough to tide us over."
His piece said Redshrike focused back on waiting for Dawnstar to suggest an opportune attack group he'd enjoy joining, running wasnt something he cared to do from a fight. As for any responses from Badgerpaw? The warrior really didnt care if he got one or not.

Dawnstar watched this little drama play out with a tense scowl on her face. She had no clue how being bait turned into being gifted as an honor, but whatever got cats volunteering. She did not take Nightfur and Larkwing's argument with Whisperpaw and Badgerpaw well, they demanded respect being warriors, but then the pair of them sat there and blatantly insulted their clan leader, the highest-ranked in their clan. Talk about hypocrites. Still, wasting her breath on mousebrains got her nowhere. If they hadn't learned their lesson playing dog bait and continued their foolish antics, Dawnstar would have to take matters personally into her paws, tedious, but a leader's got to do what a leader's got to do.
Badgerpaw tossing out that he was deemed her favorite apprentice did not sit well with the leader either. Dawnstar would often use being Icestar's favorite to irk Hailstorm, but she never used being the former leader's daughter against any of her clanmates to get her way or win an argument. Icestar did not coddle her for any reason. When Dawnstar had gotten into fights verbal or physical, she had to use her own wit and skill to earn respect or make whoever submit. Badgerpaw merely looked like a mewling kit expecting having his mother's favor would turn the tide. It was pitiful. Perhaps she was being too indulgent with him, which needed correcting immediately. What use did she have for him if he merely relied on having her as his trump card, was it not suppose to the other way around?
Her ears twitched with interest when Redshrike offered some actually useful advice, Badgerpaw would make quick friends with the newest warrior. He'd make a decent role model if nothing else. Her eyes darted back over to Nightfur and Larkwing as the pair made to walk off further away. Yeah, no, Nightfur she could care less about. But Larkwing... oh poor stupid Larkwing, she had snuck back into the clan without even a hello. That didn't sit well with Dawnstar at all. Cats did not come and go within her clan.
"Larkwing, I am only saying this once. You will come and sit at the foot of the Shadowledge until I am done with the little meeting. You and I have to discuss your little disappearing and reappearing act, as well as why you think you're above everyone else and can stroll back into ShadowClan at your own whim. If you do not, I'll let the clan tear you apart. You snuck back into the clan without my okay, you're a trespasser, and I have half a mind to treat you like one. You are not allowed to join in the dog hunt, since I haven't even allowed you back into the clan." There was a protocol for cats who left and came back, talking to her, was it. One does not just leave the clan and come back as they please.
"Skyleap, Whisperpaw, and Whitepaw, you three will help Nightfur with the run..." Her eyes flashed with agitation as she glanced at a certain kit. "Wormkit, first off I don't remember saying that you could come along, second off, you continue to disrespect me by your inability to follow a single order I give you. If you could stop being an insufferable hairball, and listened for once, maybe I could take you seriously." Dawnstar was pretty sure she told the kit to shut up, she couldn't even do that right. Dawnstar was truly regretting taking the cat in, she's caused her nothing but a headache. The disobedience was getting out of paw.
"I don't trust any of you to make the run from the Mourning Ruins all the way to the Icy Heartlands, not even I could without lagging, I expect you four to station yourself at different landmarks, switch out with each other when you reach a mark. One starts at the Mourning Ruins and runs to the fallen spruce tree, switch, the next can head to the stream, and so on. Talk to each other and make sure you know what you're doing, your lives are on the line. Make sure to give out a yowl so whoever's switching with you knows you're coming and can keep leading the pack." Dawnstar warned sternly before looking at the rest of the cats and begun splitting them up.
"Finchwhisker and Redshrike will lead the frontal assault. Only when Finchwhisker gives the signal to attack, Redshrike's patrol will follow. Finchwhisker will be in charge of Scorchstrike, Berrypaw, Shadepaw, Smokepaw, Moonshadow, Cloudheart, and Brackenpaw.
Redshrike will lead Gorsesong, Buckpaw, Frostpaw, Flashtail, Swiftpounce, Shrewstep, and Tigerdawn.
Dreamcloud and I will handle the ambushing in the back. Dreamcloud's patrol will have Dapplecloud, Grimhound, Badgerpaw, Ashenpaw, Tigerlily, Hopepelt, and Gingerpaw.
"Frogfang, Embershadow, Thornclaw, Quailpaw, Venompaw, Wolfwhisper, and Tigerfang, you'll all be in a patrol with me. When I give the signal you'll follow me, Dreamcloud and her patrol will back us up. The dogs must be kept boxed in, perhaps in their confusion they'll start tearing each other apart, making it easier for us to finish them off." She's noticed that dogs didn't have the common sense to tell friend from foe when too amped up. ShadowClan would be stupid not to use that to their advantage.
"Nightfur is to join Finchwhisker patrol as soon as you recover, Whisperpaw will join my patrol, Skyleap with Redshirke's and Whitepaw with Dreamcloud's. Any questions?"
[This was rather hard to sort out, I tried hard to keep mentors with apprentices, not sure if I got everyone. Let Dawn know if you're not sorted in a patrol.]

Rage was boiling up inside Smokepaw when Dawnstar talked to Moonpaw like that but he kept quiet. He listened as Dawnstar assigned the patrols and nodded as he was assigned to Dreamcloud's group.
~Whitepaw~
Whitepaw nodded and looked around for the other runners so they could discuss. She would be up for any postion. She would prove that she was loyal to Shadowclan.
Dapplecloud nodded, a smile on her face. She wished that she was in Dawnstar's group but she would at least be fighting. As Frogfang's name was called, Dapplecloud looked around for her mate. She wanted to talk to him one last time in case he got badly injured and he headed to the Dark Forest.
