Vemonheart sighed and looked at where Spots had left she turned to Russet "Sorry but dont think trhat disnt mean I HATE YOU" she spat codly, she licked her paw if she didnt get a tom she liked then she would go physco. So either TRigerheart or Spots.
Posionivory walked over to Brambleshadow and gave her a lick ,"Do not fear" she meowed comfretley, "The toms will be treated well your kit will be fine" she meowed.

Brambleshadow licked Bendingkit. "Oh my dear! Are you hurt? How is Firekit doing?" She was happy to see her daughter was okay. Bendingkit was out of the pit and into the tunnel. That wasn't such an improvement, but at least she was with her family again.

"I-I'm okay, bu-but I think Firekit h-had a scratch or sumthin, 'cause it smelt like blood kinda in the pit...." Bendingkit mewed, curling up at her mother's paws. "A-Are we gunna be okay, mommy?"
Memory shook her head slightly, releasing a slight sigh. "Expected what are we until the date of courtship?" she mewed more to herself than the cats. Her eyes followed echos in the tunnels; they would probably be able to walk around, but nothing would be safer than staying put. Great.

Descant sighed. " We can't just sit hear and pretend everything's okay until Spots frees us!" She rolled her eyes. " Come on, he can't do it by himself! He's going to need our help!" The she-cat stood up and padded to the boulder without waiting for an answer. She took in a long, steady breathe before letting it out as a ferocious, freakishly grotesque noise. It sounded like two monsters coliding and at the same time crushing kits.

"Help it will not if dead we all become," Memory mewed, swiftly rolling onto her paws and taking Descant away from the boulder. "Power they have that we know not of. Help from the situation in the dark muct be done in the dark; things blut too may be catastrophic in all. The only thing in our grasp is time. There is nothing more than that that we can distupt before it all comes tumbling down." The den fell silent for a moment; Memory had never used any words that were so dismal, none the less in words the cats around her would be abler to understand clearly. So it is true. Even she had lost hope.

Descant screwed up her face, not understanding a word she had just said, but the silence told her it was something sad. She sighed, but before she could ask anything, the boulder rolled back.
The familiar bengal body made it's way in. " Which one of the kits made the noise?" He demanded. Descant didn't meet Leopardclaw's ferocious, angry eyes.
" M-me." Descant mewed, afraid of Leopardclaw's strong paw that had almost hit her when she first walked into the RA's camp.
Leopardclaw glared.

Brambleshadow stepped in between Leopardclaw and Descant with a steady gaze. "Wait Leopardclaw. She didn't make the noise. I did. I tried to push the boulder so that my kits could escape. Descant did nothing." She hoped that she knew what she was doing. She wasn't about to let a kit get hurt. Her eyes closed as she prepared for the beating that she knew was coming.
||Please don't kill her. o.o||

Descant looked at Brambleshadow. She shook her head. " Don't do it, Leopardclaw!" She mewed, taking note of how the she-cat titled the muscular cat. " I did it! I swear! Don't hurt her!"
Leopardclaw loooked from the kit to the queen. He shook his head. " No." He mewed flatly. " It was the kit. I recodnize her tone of voice." Leopardclaw moved around Brambleshadow to face Descant. With a big, strong paw, he struck down on the kits head.
Descant's legs fell from under her and hit the ground with a thump. She moaned in pain, but made no motion or movement until the tom was out of sight. Leopardclaw rolled the boulder back into position.

Brambleshadow ran back to the kit's side. "Are you alright?!" Her tongue gently swept over the kit's wounds. Her lie had not worked, as did many of her lies. Her heart lurched as she was reminded of the lies she lived with Frostclaw and Sapphirepaw. How could she go on? If she kept living, only more cats would come into pain.

"Fault is not yours, mistress Brambleshadow," Memory mewed, helping Descant back to her paws. "Only his." She glanced over ehr should to find Reedkit gone, the she-kit's scent replaced with Leopardclaw's. Figures he'd have more of a reason than to hurt someone;there was always a cover-up.
"Oh my! Do you think Spots will be back soon? I'm sure he will, and he'll be able to help you no problem, Descant." The voice was Aspin's, eyes darting from the kit to the boulder, then back to the kit. "I'm so sorry! We should've helped you! You were sp brave Brambleshadow, but you souldn't do that- you have kits to care for you know."
||Bah||

Descant shook her head. " I did it, I should take the blame." Descant stood up on four shaky legs and dipped her head to Memory in thanks. She sighed. " When will t-the courtship be?" She froze. " Wait, I have an idea!"

Soprano stared at her sister in shock.
Tang came over, "What is it?" she meowed quietly, "What's you plan?"

"With time to be saved, assume from my wit would be soon. Plan what have you take?" Memory mewed, her voice quickening at the last of her words. Though she didn't know why. Without the Army, she had to purpose; she would sink back to those dismal nights, wandering the forest alone, spreading chaos of the mind.... For the time at hand, that matters not. Let it be delt with when the time arises.

" The toms will come in and take their picks of she-cats they like, correct?" Descant mewed. " Yes. So, what if we're all dirty and disgusting? They won't want to choose us." The kitten mewed. " We're going to need to help eachother out though." Descant looked around. She saw a few blood spatters where Venomheart had attacked Russet. Descant rolled around in the dirty moss, then the dirt, then the blood.

Soprano nodded hopefully, and did the same as her sister.
Tang blinked a few times before agreeing and doing the same.
(Both of my cats that are here are white.....)

Aspin's spirit seemed to leap. "Yes yes! That is a good idea! But if we all gdo that then...."
"Entirely aginst the plan of theirs that would. Would not we then hurt all get?" Memory continued, sitting back against the wall. "In eyes of mine, few only may attampt this trick. If not enough fill the whims of Tigerheart and Leopardclaw...."
||Bah||

Spots rolled the boulder open and closed. " News for all of you-" He looked at the she-cats. " Hey, not a bad idea!" He mewed. " I just found out Tigerheart has his eyes fixed on a she-cat rogue running around by the name of Ella."
" Ella?!" Descant spat. " That's my mother!"

Soprano nodded, "Yes, that would be our mothers name...." she mumbled, "Is she here?"
Tang looked at Spots, "What was ya gunna tell us?" she meowed to the tom.

"Ah, the name returns," Memory mewed, mainly to herself. She had always heard rumurs of the one spreading discord and chaos throughout the territories; who knew that she would wind up where things couldn't seem to get any worse. "Strange it is that she would come here, none the less have kits. Is her purpose known?" she mewed to Spots, eyes fading from a dim yellow to green.

Brambleshadow looked to the cats ruffling their fur to make themselves unappealing. "I doubt that this will work. What happens when the toms decide that it doesn't matter? They are toms." Her eyes rolled over to her kits' fine and smooth fur.

Spots shook his head. " I heard Tigerheart telling Leopardclaw that he had taken an interest into a rogue that roamed near StormClan. Tigerheart's going to go out and find her later on. Also, Leopardclaw refuses to have more kits. He said he can't handle more whining cats. The big 2 are knocked out. Shortstride or Skullpaw I do not know of, Firepaw is helping me with the escape, and Frostclaw still hasn't woken up yet."
Descant shifted closer to Soprano.

Soprano nuzzled her sister.
Tang looked at Brambleshadow, then back at Spots, "I'm sure Skullpaw 'll help ya, I'm sure he wouldn't want Brambleshadow to go through this."

"But only fre that are widely known may be counted off," Memory mewed, the rest of the tunnels falling back from an errie silence. "More though are there; to do what with those?" Her voice had returned to it's steady base; the she-cat everyone knew before than had fallen back into her place. Interesting this shall be.
"Mommy, how old is we?" Bendingkit mewed to Brambleshadow, ears pressed against the top of her head with worry.

The queen shuddered at the thought of what would happen with Skullpaw and Frostclaw. She didn't even want to imagine what her poor kits would think. This would be another Sapphirepaw/Frostclaw/Skullpaw/Brambleshadow episode. She just knew it.

Descant sighed. She was tall for her age, and now more than ever she regretted how old she looked. She rested her head on her paws and thought.
" What about me?" A new voice spoke. Frostclaw swiftly entered the den, Firepaw by his side. Frostclaw's senses kicked in. He locked eyes with Brambleshadow and stared into them for a long, long time. Without a word, he took his regretful, pained eyes off his nephew's mother and padded out of the den without a word.
Firepaw's eyes were miserable.

Skullpaw came into the den, his eyes downcast.
Opalpaw came into the den with Leopardclaw.
Tang and Soprano stared at the toms.

Brambleshadow watched her mate and sons walk in as tears appeared in her eyes. She didn't want her children to go through this at such a young age. She wanted them to be happy but she took one last look at hedaughters and sons before holding her head back up.

Finally, a strong emotion came over Firepaw. One so feirce he had never felt before. He looked at Skullpaw, then Brambleshadow. " STUPID UGLY FOXDUNG HEADED MOUSEBRAINS!" He roared angrily, bolting from the den in pursuit of Frostclaw.

"Come on now, we all know why we're here." The call was Shortstride's padding through the crowd of toms. "She-cats, stay put. The toms will come to you. Rouge Army: make haste." His tail flicked foreward, signaling for all but Frostclaw for Firepaw to move onward into the tunnels. If Tigerheart was going to go linient on them, so would he.
Shard and Key nodded to one another, making their way past the taken queens to Descant and Soprano. "Don't you two think you're a bit young for this?"
"Don't be silly. The only one's that look too pathetic in here are those," Shard countered, tail motioning to Brambleshadow before allowing it to rest of Descant. "What do you think of this one?"
Key shrugged. "Whatever, I'll just go with this one then." His paw nudged Soprano slightly. He had always been the kinder of the two calico toms; he never did the same with a she-cat in the clans. "You okay, kid?"
Memory shrunk back into the shadows, eyeing Shortstride as he waited for the masses to get moving.

Descant sighed and looked at Shard. If she could run, flee... away sounded good right then. She stayed put, afraid of what might happen now. Her matted ginger fur was even darker now. She stared at the place where Firepaw had dissapeared.
Spots sat next to Vani. " Erm, Vani..." He mewed. " I'm not sure how to tell you this, but I kinda... I kinda like you." His wiry fur remained flat as his muscles tensed.
