Frostleaf padded through the forest.The rain had just stopped,and the ground was slick with mud."Ow!"Frostleaf yelped as she slipped and landed in the mud with a thump.Putting her feet down more carefully this time,she continued on her way.A rustling noise coming from a holly bush alerted the white she-cat.The fresh scent of thrush wafted in the breeze,and she stalked toward the bush.Once close enough,she pounced.But,instead of landing on the thrush, she found herself sliping in the mud,sliding down the slope.Suddenly,the ground disappeared from under her and she was falling through thin air."OH,NO!"frostleaf cried."I'm falling into the gorge!"

Snowpelt opened his maw. Taking a deep breath, he took in the scents of the forest. The smell of mud dominated most others. He took another careful breath, this time picking up a faint scent of a thrush. His paws carried him over to where the scent was strongest. He stopped when he saw a she-cat with white fur. She was easy to see against the muddy ground, and it was quite obvious that she was already hunting the thrush that he smelled. He watched as she stalked it then realized that she was very near the gorge. Before he could shout a warning, the she-cat pounced.
Despite his slightly aching joints, Snowpelt dashed forward, sending a spray of mud behind him. He could see that his paws were almost a blur as he ran towards where he last saw the she-cat. He skidded to a halt just a few mouse-lengths from the gorge, stretching his neck as far as it could go, and grabbed the she-cat by the scruff. [/size]

Frostleaf thrashed wildly,only to find she had stopped falling.Someone had grabbed her by the scruff and was pulling her up.Once the cat had hoisted her up,he dropped her onto the muddy ground.For a moment Frostleaf laided there breathlessly.Then she staggered ungracefully to her feet,taking a step toward her clanmate with trembling paws."You saved my life,"she mewed gratefully to snowpelt,her voice still shaking a bit.

Snowpelt took several deep breaths, panting heavily. He couldn't remember the last time he'd exerted so much effort to do something. "No problem. You are my clanmate after all." he said in between breaths. He opened his maw again but could no longer find the scent of the thrush that had caused so much trouble. He look over the edge of the gorge and saw its limp body far below and shuddered. That could have easily been his clanmate. "You should be more careful next time though." he meowed almost sternly, though the amusement obviously shone in his eyes. [/size]

"Thanks again,"said Frostleaf,thanking Dreamclan that Snowpelt had been near.She knew Snowpelt could have easily not been fast enough,or not there at all,and she would have been limp and broken at the bottom of the gorge."We should probably be getting back to camp,"Frostleaf mewed,hoping to get away from the trechorous cliff.She turned around and waited for Snowpelt to follow.

ooc: hm.. maybe a fox attack would make it more interesting. What do ya think? if you don't like it I could edit it.=}
ic: "Yeah maybe we should." Snowpelt could feel the muscels in his legs protesting as he started to follow Frostleaf. A scent suddenly hit him. It was a thrush. Probably the one that almost had Frostleaf killed. He decided to hunt it. The clan needed the fresh-kill anyway. He crouched down onto his belly, stalked a few paces forward, then leaped. He didn't have to worry about falling in the gorge since the thrush was opposite it. When he landed, he slapped his paws on the thrush. He looked up in triumph but froze when he saw and scented something. It definitely wasn't a cat. The bushes in front of him parted to reveal a brown white fox. It beared it teeth at him. He had probably been hunting the thrush too. The creature was covered in mud, which probably disguised its scent.
The thrush in his paws was struggling to get out, but Snowpelt felt didn't move. "Frostleaf, go back to camp and get help, quick." he whispered as loud as he dared, before the fox pounced. [/blockquote]

occ:great idea :)I feel bad for our cats,mine almost falling off a cliff, and yours fighting off a fox. ic:As much as Frostleaf wanted to help her clanmate,she knew it was wiser to go seek out help.She bolted into the forest,hoping Snowpelt would hold up untill she got back.She ran as fast as her legs would carry her,using her long limbs to help her along.She quickly reached the Icelan camp."A fox attacked Snowpelt and I at the gorge,"she couldn't tell the whole story,there wasn't any time,"we need backup,come quick!"Frostleaf yelled,pacing back and forth,waiting for a patrol to get together.Would they make it in time?

Jaggedfang looked up from the vole he had been enjoying in the early greenleaf sun. When he heard what had happened, he finished the last of his vole, groomed the remains from his whiskers and stood up with a luxorious stretch. "Alright then, what are we waiting for." he ampled over to her. "Let's go."

Frostleaf was glad that Jaggedfang was taking charge and getting cats together,but they would probably need another cat or two to fight a full-grown fox,and a huge one at that."Jaggedfang,run and get a few more cats from the warrior's den,"Frostleaf mewed,she knew that they didn't have time to wait for cats to offer to come.

Jaggedfang drew himself up to his full massive height. "I think I can help you take care of a fox. 3 warriors are enough, and if Snowpelt has been left with no help at all, then we don't have time to go looking for more warriors." He pointed out, calmly. He started for the camp entrance, his muscles rolling and bunching with power under a glossy, long-haired white coat. "Let's go. Now!"

Frostleaf knew he was probably right,but she wished they could have brought one more cat,because this fox was huge."Okay!"she meowed and went racing after him,bounding to the gorge where the fox had attacked

When they arrived at the gorge, he leaped straight into battle, with a furious, thunderous, catarwauling battlecry. He unsheathed his claws in midair and slashed them viciously down the foxes haunches. Hissing and spitting, he leapt off as the fox gave a suprised yelp, and turned around to snap at him. Standing ridgid between Frostleaf and the fox, his fur fluffed up so he looked twice his size and his claws already stained in blood, he hissed menacingly as his spine bended upwards. He was now almost as big as the fox, or at least he looked it.

Jaggedfang screeched furiously as he leaped up and his claws sank into the fox's neck and he bit down into it's ear. He tasted it's foul blood and wanted to wretch, but he wouldn't allow himself the chance. When the fox fell down on him, he was smothered and he struggled to free himself of it's weight, and hot stench.

Frostleaf drove her claws as deep as they could go into the fox's belly,causing it to leap off of Jaggedfang."Yes!"thought Frostleaf,and continued to fight the fox.
