IceStar sat outside her den shaking for the fifth night this moon. Though the New-Leaf weather was warm and humid, IceStar was as cold as her breath. A warm breeze blew through the camp, but when she exhaled, IceStar could see her breath as if it were 20 degrees out rather than 80. The AutumnClan leader stared unblinking at her clan's camp. She saw nothing in front of her, for her sights were turned inward and she was deep in thought... Five night this moon now...
much more frequently than before, and much more detailed...
Am I enjoying these dreams as I planned? Definitely not!
Well...
Maybe I am... But just a bit! But I do NOT want them to continue!
I wish they would stop now, before I go insane! IceStar lay down outside her den and sighed. She didn't know if there was any way to stop these dreams, however much she wanted them to cease! IceStar closed her eyes and without realizing it, she dozed off into a dreamless sleep. A few hours later a cat was prodding IceStar in her shoulder, causing the leader to awaken. "Wha...?" she mumbled as she blinked sleep out of her eyes. "What's going on?" looking around the camp IceStar saw cats alert and tence, as if they were expecting a fight. "What happened?" IceStar looked at the warrior who had awakened her, there eyes were hard and angry. "MoorClan cats were on our territory last night, there sent was detected by the dawn patrol, they also found blood!" IceStar was fully alert now, "What blood?" she asked. "It was thrown across some bushes so it was hard to tell, but we think it was rabbit blood!" IceStar nodded, then turned to her deputy. "Who lead the patrol?" she asked, her nightmare from earlier forgotten.

The calico deputy had been just behind the warrior who had awoken the leader, her blue eyes narrowed slightly and her figure tense. "I did, Icestar." she mewed, her voice unusually serious and hard. Gardeniaflower was no fool, she knew the severity of what they'd found, and the possibly of a battle between MoorClan and AutumnClan was one that weighed heavily upon her mind. "The blood was found near the border, but too far into a territory for a MoorClan cat to not know that they were in AutumnClan territory." she explained.
Behind the calico stood yet another warrior, one of dark black without a single distinct marking about her. The black she-cat was just as tense as her sister, and for a moment, the outgoing young warrior was like stone, nothing could faze her or snap her out of it. And even more unusual for the black she-cat, she didn't speak up like she normally would. The thick intensity of the mood was one that told her she had to be silent, at least for now.

((No, that's great! ^^ I love RPing without providing all the details in the beginning, it makes the other RPers more part of the post rather than just fallowing the thread starter's lead!))
IceStar nodded briskly understanding immediately. "Did you get any sent other than that of the blood?" she asked thinking quickly. Her mind wasn't one that worked slowly to figure why MoorClan had done this and find out how it could have been an accident. No, It worked quickly and efficiently to come up with at least three battle plans and five backup plans! Already IceStar was devising her best warriors and eldest apprentices to lead a raid to MoorClan. She looked up at her deputy and the cat that had awoken her. "Well?" she asked impatiently, though it had only been a few moments since she had asked the question she felt excited and wanted to get this raid going. Unconsciously, IceStar had begun kneading the ground, taring it apart as if it were an enemy.

The calico she-cat made no motions of surprise or shock when her leader demanded to know more, but she did send her sister away for the moment. The warrior she-cat didn't need to be here at the moment; whatever Shadowforce knew, Gardeniaflower knew. "No ma'am, the blood covered up every other scent, but I did see some pawprints in the sand near the bush. They were not from the patrol, and the wind had covered them some, so they'd been there for a while." she explained.

OOC: Sorry it took so long. I haven't had the time to get back on the site until now.

IceStar nodded grimly, this was not good. It was obvious that MoorClan had done this, but she could not run a raid to their camp without any proof, and paw prints and Moor sent weren't enough to prove anything. "Remark the borders, all of them, thickly!" she snapped at the cat that had awoke her, and nodding the tom gathered some other cats together and ran off. IceStar frowned as she thought, what other proof could their be? If she said their was the sent of MoorClan, FlashStar would say the wind carried it, if she said their were paw prints, FlashStar would say those could be any cats, and if she said their was rabbit blood thrown on the bushes, FlashStar would say it could have been anyone that did that, just because MoorClan has an abundance of rabbits doesn't mean it was them. IceStar growled angrily and began pacing back and forth in front of her deputy. "Is their anything else, anything at all?" she asked, almost pleadingly.

Her eyes were still locked upon her leader has she watched the she-cat pace back and forth, feeling some sympathy for her leader. She wished she had more to give Icestar, but she couldn't think of anything else... well, maybe except for one other thing. "Well, there was a scruff of fur that had been pulled off by some thorns, but it's a brown color, a very common color for cats. I doubt it's going to help any." she explained.

IceStar nodded and sighed, ending her pacing and sitting down. "Every day, twice a day thickly mark all the borders and keep a close watch on MoorClan!" She meowed, raising her voice so that the whole clan could hear her. IceStar looked around the clan, noticing that LightPaw was not among the gathered cats. This would not usually stick out to her, but for some reason it did. "This is all we can do for now." she meowed, lowering her voice through the sentence.

Once the orders were given, the AutumnClan deputy gave a brief nod to her leader. She'd get started right away, but something caught her attention. She too had noticed Lightpaw's disappearance. Where could the apprentice be? She shook it off after a moment before she gave a call towards Shadowforce. It was time to mark the borders and look for the apprentice along the way.
