"It's alright. dont worry. everything will be fine."
She licked the kit comfortingly and purred... or at least tried to...

 Dewburst
[Dewburst had padded into camp unaware of what was going on.
He let the drone of the camp his troubled feelings.
Only when he'd heard yelling from outside the camp did he react openly.
He'd ran to the cluster of cats gathered around Smokefoot.
He dug his claws into the earth leaving deep, ragged claw marks.]
What's the matter with me? Why am I the one panicking, I didn't do anything! he thought angry at himself for stirring up unwanted emotions.
[Horror clawed at his mind. Images flashed through blurring his vision.
The tom, the blood, the anger.. the murder.]
These noble cats killed for a reason. You killed out of anger, pain.. a voice sneered in his ear.
[His eyes flashed around madly, he needed to get out!
He burst away from the crowd, hearing their startled yowls, but it didn't matter.
Suddenly a pain sounded from his ribs.
He was starved.]
"I shall hunt.." he murmured gazing around the lush hills.
Anything to fill that hollow numbness. he thought, pained.

"He won't do anything," Oakkit mewed quietly to her mother. "And I can't move him, and the medicine cats are gone. Waht's gonna happen?"
(He's just in shock. I mean, who wouldn't be? I'M in shock!)

SweetMoon smiled calmly. She put Oakkit down and picked Softkit up by his scruff. She felt his heart beating fast. "It's alright. he's just in shock." She said to her kit. She padded forward nudging Oakkit with her paws. "Let's get inside the nursery. We will talk there." She said. She padded into the nursery and sat down in her nest. Gently she rested Softkit down next to her and gave her kits comforting licks.

 O w l t a l o n“Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.”___________________________Owltalon padded back to camp with Dicekit a few tail-lengths away. He could hear her muttering something, but, lucky for her, she was just barely out of earshot. This only further confirmed Owltalon's speculations. Her fox-hearted dead mother was not finished with her.
“Here we are, Dicekit. Run along to your mother now. She must be worried about you.”
Owltalon purposely put in the last two sentences. He knew it would remind Dicekit of who her real mother was, and make her spirit mother spit with envy.
Finally, Owltalon lied down at the edge of camp, now somewhat tired. His wide golden eyes followed Dicekit padding across the clearing, but he wasn't watching her. No, his stare was following a larger, faint outline of a cat that followed Dicekit. Letting an involuntary hiss escape him, Owltalon hoped Dicekit's spirit mother could see him. If only she were alive...He'd flay her for influencing an innocent kit.

Wavepelt saw Owltalon pad back into camp with Dicekit well let's hope Dicekit's allright now. He padded up to Owltalon "Well, are you okay? 'Cause you promised some fighting training, but I can wait for tomorrow if it's best for you".

 D i c e k i t“Even after my mirror's been shattered, I still see the reflection.”___________________________Dicekit padded towards the nursery, grumbling. "I already found her." she mewed in a low whisper. Her mother paused. "Shall we give him a little spook?" she asked. Dicekit blinked. "s-sure." she said. Her mother gave out a quick flash, and in this flash allowing Owltalon to see her. Her Green eyes narrowed, and her mouth upturned in a sickly sweet smile. Dicekit shivered. "ooh, now you're even scaring me!" she giggled, before heading inside, her mother's flash dying out as she flopped back between her siblings. Doveflight looked up. "That was quick." she smiled. "I can't wait until you three become apprentices soon...just a matter of days, and you'll be learning all sorts of fighting techniques and hunting styles, and you'll be a warrior before you know it!" she purred with glee. Dicekit laid her nose over her tail, paying no attention to the snowy queen. Doveflight paused. "something worrying you, Dicekit?" Dicekit looked up. "hmm? oh, no. I'm okay." i wish. she thought, curling up next to her spirit mother, falling asleep.

Dewburst
[Dewburst spotted his prey and raced after it.]
How strange.. he thought as he watched his prey jumping around wildly.
[It kicked and thrashed out as it jumped. Twitching all over.
Dewburst narrowed his eyes.]
No matter, prey is prey and there are kits that need to be fed. he thought banishing any doubts that he had.
[Dewburst sped up his pace, with belly fur brushing the ground, he narrowed the distance between him and the rabbit.
He ran even harder until his lungs were screaming for air and until he was beside his prey.
He quickly flashed out a paw, making the rabbit fall head over heels.
It thrashed and kicked out as Dewburst swept in to take the killing blow.
He quickly made a deep gash in its throat, the rabbit stopped moving.
He made his way back to camp, triumph in his eyes.
He laid it down on the fresh kill pile and sat down to wash away the rabbit's blood.
He licked meticulously until his claws caught the sun's light and gleamed.
His mouth felt weird though.
The blood has tasted like bile!
Shaking away the nasty taste, he laid his head on his paws, though they were slightly twitching.
He struggled to find a comfortable position his felt fuming by the time he'd given up on sleep.
Tearing at the bracken for no reason, anger foaming his mouth...]

Wavepelt didn't wait for an answer from Owltalon because Dewburst had come into camp carrying a rabbit. Before he could tell Dewburst of the madness the cat had licked away the blood on his claws and went to lay down. Please let him be okay! Starclan please! Wavepelt noticed him twithching and thrashing wildly "Dewburst, are you okay"?

O w l t a l o n“Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.”___________________________ As Owltalon saw the dead leader's glistening green eyes, he hissed slowly, then let it rise into a spitting and snarling noise, similar to a snake's. His hackles raised and claws unsheathed, yet the spirit quickly faded into nothingness. Lying his hackles and sheathing his claws, Owltalon blinked his stare over to Wavepelt. Seeing the tom's enthusiasm, and maners, made him believe that Wavepelt will be a devoted warrior to BreezeClan. Before he could even answer, Dewburst came into camp, stumbling over his own paws and mouth frothing like the infected rabbit's. Owltalon jumped up and raced to Wavepelt's side, hissing and bristling his pelt.

Dewburst
[Dewburst staggered to his paws, blearily staring at Wavepelt.
His pupils narrowed into slits, words trying to form on his lips just came out as foam.
A flash of terror reflected in Dewburst's eyes as his lost control of himself.
He lunged at Wavepelt clawing and ripping at his pelt.
Grief struck the part of Dewburst that was still himself.]
Great Starclan! Will I end up killing another cat?! he thought before the wild madness to over his thoughts once again.]

 _________________________________________________________ Doveflight“Nothing is a dead end. You pick up the pieces and start over.”___________________________ Doveflight stretched. "hmm...i think i'll get a bite to eat." she said to herself, picking up a squirrel. A loud yowl echoed across the clearing. Doveflight swiveled her head to see Dewburst, foaming at the mouth, lunging at Wavepelt. Doveflight gaped in utter horror, and her senses took over. She dropped her meal and bolted towards Dewburst, yanking him off of the loner. Dicekit, Spadekit and Cloverkit's heads popped out from the nursery entrance, and Dicekit let out a bloodcurdling shriek. Doveflight looked At Dewburst, attempting holding him down with her paws. No! He was going to be Dicekit's mentor! I was so close!

Wavepelt managed to dodge and hit the cat with his paw on the back. Wavepelt noticed the cat's gaze and quickly dashed between the queen and Dewburst.

O w l t a l o n“Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.”___________________________ Owltalon glared at Doveflight as Wavepelt rushed to her.
“Get back to the nursery and protect the kits. Make sure none of them wander from you.”
He meowed before turning and leaping for Dewburst's flank with sheathed paws. Hopefully, he could restrain the tom, rather than kill him as Doveflight did moments ago. Of course, her body was lighter, but Owltalon was a thick-pelted tom. If StarClan were on his side, he could pin Dewburst down better than Doveflight.

SweetMoon heard a yowl. She padded outside of the nursery to find DewBurst. "DEWBURST!!!! NO!!!" she yowled. she tensed. *Dewburst... please, i dont want to lose a friend as good as you.* She thought. She stayed near the nursery entrance nudging the kits back into their nests.
