Swallowpaw turned her head away from Cougartrail, trying hard not to cry. "Well... If you're okay, then I guess I'll go... now..." She started skidding down the ditch, not feeling up to jump again.
OOC: x3 okay thank you!! are u going to the clan to help fight off the dogs!?
Iciclelight got up and sat outside of the den to get a little fresh air. "I wonder..." She went to check the apprentice's den and saw Swallowpaw gone. She looked puzzled. Then she went to the Warrior's den. Cougartrail wasnt there. "Where... maybe thy went training.. I don't know.." she muttered. Then without thinking she decided to follow their sent. When she followed it most of the way she saw to out linning of cats on the other side of a gorge. "How did they jump so far!?!" she thought "Well... if i want to follow i might as well go!!" Then holding her breath she crouched and then JUMPED!! "Please make it!! Please make it!!!!" her eyes closed shut then her front paws felt the ground, byut her back paws were barley on the ground. With her strength she got up. She saw it was the miussing apprentice and the issing warrior. "What are you two doing on this side of the gorge!!" she asked puzzled
CougarTrail turned to IcicleLight, it was the worst time for her to barge in. "well we;re suppsose to be warning StoneClan but we cant go anywhere unless StarPaw jumps!" he exaimed, he looked over the other side

[ xD Yeah, I guess so. ^^; I dunno, I figured if they're gonna be mates some day, I guess she should show some emotion about it? ^^; ] [ Hey, since apparently we're trying to get them to get away from dogs, or uber-beasts or whatever, I'll make her go back to find her. ]
Swallowpaw's paws felt like stones. She treaded through the forest, not really looking for Starpaw. Her paws carried her expertly through the dense trees, avoiding roots and sharp juts that protruded from the hard ground. Eventually, she felt brambles pricking her pelt, telling her that she reached the camp. She looked up, and gasped. Everything was in ruins.
[ xD Yes, I'm all for the dramatic scenes and plot stuff, but we needed the excitement, no? xD ]
0cc: remeber to use '0cc:' or StarCloud will get angry. Now the reason CougarTrail isn't too good on saying, 'i love you' or 'i like you' is coz she is his apprentice and its kinda awakrd to him. But he WILL say it.

CougarTrail looked at IcicleLight, "can you make sure StarPaw gets across safety? i have more important matters to atend to and if i dont return in a while or get lost of something you to go ahead" he explained beofre bounding off. CougarTrail pondered around the forest, "SwallowPaw! where are you? i'm sorry?"

[Occ: Okay, fine! xD Well, I dunno. oo; She's his apprentice? Eh, I didn't sign up for that. ^^; ]
Swallowpaw gasped at the chaos erupting before her. Huge, snarling uber-dogs(?) were everywhere, and destroying the camp. Thankfully, most of the camp had evacuated once warned of the beasts coming. But still, some cats were still in the dens, probably waiting for the beasts to find them and try to attempt to kill them, and probably die in the attempt. She started sneaking into the sides, hoping the brambles and thicket would cover her, and she ran into the nearest den. It was the apprentices'. Three, small, cowering cats were huddled inside, eyes wide with fright. They jumped back at her shadow, but when they realized it was a cat, they ran over. "Glorypaw, you go first, Singepaw, go second, and Rowanpaw get out last. I'll make sure no one's watching, then you guys run. Understand?" She instructed. They all nodded, and she went to crouch at the entrance to the den. She was going to give the all-clear, but then she turned and bumped into another cat. "Cougartrail!" Her fur was on end. "What are you doing here?"
0cc: Iciclelight said u were :o After she gets more angry i'll get him to say it.
CougarTrail took a step closer to SwallowPaw, he could feel himself blush but he over looked it. "Why wouldn't i be here? I have to take care of you!" he snapped.

Swallowpaw sighed. "Can you get these apprentices back to safety? I'm going to check on the other dens..." [Occ interruption: can i do this? xp] "No. I'm your mentor, and I say it's too dangerous. You take the apprentices, I'll check the dens." "But I'm smaller! It'll be less noticeable if I go. Just go get help!" She dragged a apprentice over, making Rowanpw (the apprentice) squeal in pain "Sorry..." she murmured, while putting the cat down in the middle of them. "You take him!" She said, more aggressive than she would have wanted to.
CougarTrail lifted one of his eye brows up, "now who's taking the orders, eh?" he teased, he peared down at the apprentice, "i think you should go back and find the rest of your clan. Our mission was to warn StoenClan, i guess we were too late" he paused "how long ago was the attack?" he questioned.

"I don't know," she admitted. She risked taking a look outside. A few uber-dogs were still in the clearing, and she ducked back inside. She shivered, and absentmindedly pulled the three apprentices closer to her, to share her body heat. She thought about their options. "Well.. what now? We could try to leave... And risk one or two of us dying, or we could wait... and see if the uber-dogs find us." She shivered at the thought of being sitting ducks, worse, stuck in a small den with no where to run.
Swallowpaw gritted her teeth. "Doesn't matter, we'll drag you all the way down and up if we have to." She stared out of the den, watching the uber-dogs destroy what was left of their home.
"SwallowPaw get the rest of the cats, we can take the long way around the camp and try to find the rest of the clan" he ordered, still staring at the dogs.

Swallowpaw slipped out nervously. Were there other cats, trapped, terrorized too, like they were? It was dark, and only one uber-dog remained, sniffing the ground for any crowfood. Nose scrunched up in disgust, she slipped in and out of the ruined dens. She found no cats.
CougarTrail also noticed there were no other cats, "can you go and tell IcicleLight? and ill stay here incase the dogs try to kill the remaining apprenticeS?"

Iciclelight was about to jump back over when Swallopaw came running to get her. "Iciclelight we need you to come!! C'mon the dogs attacked we need to hurry!!" Iciclelight was shocked but than followed the appretnice to the camp site. "Bring the injured cats to me... i'll do my best!! OOC: srry fo playing yu Swallopaw ^^;
CougarTrail whipped around as a puppy pounced on him, he screamed andtried to get her of him. He squirmed out of its grasped, the puppy of about to pounce again when CougarTrail scratched it on the noses, making her howl in pain. The black tom watched to ran back to the others, he turned to the aprentices. "we have to get out of here or the dogs will come back!" he exaimed, making the apprentice run.

Iciclelight nodded, even though she wasnt a warrior she could still help defend! "I'll help!! I will lead the apprentice's and some other to saftey!!!" she meowed "C'mon!!" and some of the apprentices, most of them followed and a few others followed as well.
[Occ: Don't worry, Iciclelight. I don't mind if someone has to play me, unless they're abusing my character. ^^]
"We have to evacuate now!" Swallowpaw leaped back into the den, and pushed a random apprentice to his feet. It turned out to be Rowanpaw, and he squealed, scrabbling to his feet. "Hurry!" She commanded, and refrained from grabbing his scruff. She yowled at the other apprentices, who were wide-eyed and panicing. She could hear uber-dogs barking in the distance. "RUN!"
"What?" Swallowpaw skidding to a halt to see what he was doing. She glanced nervously at the apprentices, who were already halfway out the brambles with Iciclelight. She raced back impatiently, and whispered, "What?"
Swallowpaw wanted to sigh in relief, but she, of all people, knew that the danger wasn't completely over yet. She listened to her heart pound, next to Cougartrails, awfully loud. She hoped that he didn't hear it beating.
Iciclelight stoped as she noticed the dogs werent barking any more. "C'mon in tghere!!" she whispered to the cats. She looked but didnt see the dogs. "Maybe they left." she thought "You guys dont move!!" and she ran over to her clan mates. "Where are the dogs!!"
"Lionpaw, they're taking awfully long... I'm going." She stalked off, Lionpaw behind her. She cleared the ditch in one graceful movement, Lionpaw scrambling at the edge. "You'll never be a warrior if you can't scale the ditch," she taunted. That got him up in no time. They then set off, to see Cougartail and Swallowpaw hiding. She then sniffed the air. Her mouth held open wider, soaking in the scent. Dogs. She hissed and saw the alpha leader. Lionpaw headed back and to Cougartail and Swallowpaw. He hid with them as Braveheart stood in front of the dog. They had a stare off until he spoke. "Who are you?" "First smart dog I've met, but gentlemen first. Your name," she hissed. "Hail. You?" he said in a baritone voice. "Braveheart. Tell me, what are you doing?" "She-cats first." "Fine. Visiting friends." "I am here for food... and my, my. You seem to be the entre." Braveheart stood still for a second, then backed away. Every step back, Hail took a step forwards. Her breaths were short and quick. His growls were low and menacing.
Meanwhile Lionpaw asked Cougartail and Swallowpaw in a low voice, "What's going on?" He almost hissed it, if he hadn't held his tounge. He looked at Braveheart and almost sighed. "It's not over... It's not over until that fat flea-bag is killed," hissed Lionpaw.
CougarTrail longed to leap at the alapha male but he saw if he did BraveHeart would be in more trouble than she already was. "The dogs have destored StoneClan Camp, they left some of their apprentices behind and now we have to kill the male" he explained to LionPaw. "I think we should close in on the Alapha male, what do you think LionPaw?" he asked.

"Lemme at 'im." Swallowpaw growled, low, but not loud enough to attract the apha's attention. She was practically out of their hiding place, fur stuck out and ears laid back.
CougarTrail pulled her back by her scruff "yoy're not going anywhere" he snapped "firstly that alapha is more powerful and experienced than you are. If you go at him blinded by rage you will make a fatefuly mistake because all you want to do is attack him! Secondly if we get a good plan that will work it should be enough to use his strength against him, think first young one" he explained.

Swallowpaw refrained from snapping back and running outside; she wasn't really going to run out there like that. He should have known she wasn't a mousebrain. Seething, she made her fur lie flat again, but her eyes remained slits and her ears laid back.
