Dustmoon shook his head at Willowpaw,"No thanks I already had some prey while you were sleeping, but thank you for offering."

 R o b i n s o n g“Beauty has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”_______________________________________[Robinsong fetched her salmon, the water vole barely dangling from her jaws with its tail. She struggled to carry both, but regardless, she padded back to camp beside Aquawish and Jadefoot. She grunted at she felt the salmon almost slip from her jaws.]
“Thanks. You too.”
[She muttered from between her catched, her words sounding muffled and slurred. Oddly, she felt the tension between Aquawish and her from earlier fade. The calico she-cat wondered in the new SeaClan she-cat had taken interest in Ravenwing or Lightningstrike. It would explain several things...]_______________________________

"oh....I see..." Willowpaw said as she took another bite out of the fish. "Im glad..." Willowpaw whispered. She finished the fish in a few more bites. she licked her paws clean and started thinking. *i must do something... for Cloudfang, for Nightflame, for Dustmoon, for Aquawish... for those who had helped me...* she thought to herself. *but what...?* she pawed the ground in frustration.

((Oh just to tell ya Arrowshine is Willowpaws sister, Aquawish is the new clan member... XD))
Arrowshine was surprised that Robinsong wasnt as hostile as see had been before. Maybe we can be friends. I thought. Aquawish sets the prey she caught in the fresh kill pile and then grabbed a fish she caughtand headed to the elders den and gave the fish to Snowdapple and Strikepelt.They dipped their head in thanks then I went to the warriors den and found Arrowshine sleeping deeply.

Arrowshine was startled when Aquawish settled into the nest beside her. Then I realized that it was nearly sun-down. How long have I been asleep! Arrowshine rushed out of the warriors den to see Foamkit being rushed into the nursery by her mother. Arrowshine goes into the apprentices den and sits beside Dustmoon and Willowpaw.

R o b i n s o n g“Beauty has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”_______________________________________(( Are you telling me or Gray that? > < If me, I already read it in the profiles...x__x ))
[Robinsong set down her catches on the fresh-kill pile and took a small fish for herself. She ate it swiftly, not even having to sit down, and padded into the warriors' den. The large calico sat down in her nest, which was rather isolated and right against the den's wall. She groomed her pelt for what seemed like a moon, making sure it was free of any dirt whatsoever before curling up and falling into a shallow sleep. Her mind was still clouded with thoughts of Ravenwing and Lightningstrike, and she could sweat that she felt Foxfire's eyes watching her...]_______________________________

((I was telling grey))
Jadefoot strolls up into highcave and was to tired to do anything else for the rest of the day, so he curled up into a ball and had nightmares on what would happen to Mosstar if they failed.

 Mintpaw
[Mintpaw padded wearily into the clearing.
She'd had another fitful night, fighting off the Madness.
Even sleeping outside still hadn't helped.
Sure, the close quarters with other cats had been really bad but even sleeping outside was bad enough.
She could still hear the peaceful breathing of others and she still wanted to make all their breaths stop.
She smiled bitterly.
Had there been a time was she wasn't so tired?
When other people breathing had comforted her and not driven her to insanity?
She sighed and closed her eyes.
She padded to the fresh-kill pile.
No matter what, she wanted to make it seem like everything was still normal with her.
But eating the fresh-kill was like eating bland, dry thistles that rubbed down her throat as she swallowed.
It did nothing for her appetite.
As she padded her greens eyes double-taked on a sleeping calico(?) figure (Robinsong).
She could clearly see the rise and fall of her chest and wanted eagerly to stop it.
She tried to tear her gaze away but couldn't and soon found herself leaning over the she-cat.
Her own breath was stilled so as not to wake her.
And suddenly without even knowing that she was doing it, her claw had sunk into the sleeping figures chest.
She was squeezing tightly and her heat beat faster to make up for the one she was compressing.
Then with much will-power and a frightened yowl, she leaped away from the fast waking cat.
She forced herself to look guilty but found pleasure in feeling waves of mixed emotions.]
Oh Starclan help me! What have I become? she thought almost yowling with despair.

R o b i n s o n g“Beauty has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”_______________________________________[Robinsong's breaths were shallow as she calmed, letting herself fall into a deeper sleep. A dream began to color itself before her closed eyes, and she was eager to indulge in it's surreal freedom, and to forget about Foamkit, Ravenwing, Lightningstrike, Foxfire and Foxheart all together.
But suddenly, a pang of pain coursed through her, and the large calico she-cat yowled in agony. She woke with a jolt, feeling warmth seep out of her chest. Her mismatching eyes, wide and rimmed with horror, flew open and were instantly attracted to the little apprentice that was clawing at her chest. Her hackles rose and tail fluffed. Blood dyed her dappled coat, and it roused both dread and rage within the she-cat. Mintpaw yowled and jumped into the air, as if realizing the most mouse-brained mistake she'd ever made. Robinsong bunched her muscles and tackled the apprentice, blood still trickling out of her fresh gashes. She unsheathed her elegantly hooked black claws as she placed one forepaw at Mintpaw's neck, pinning the young she-cat down. Robinsong hissed menacingly at the apprentice.]
“You little piece of foxdung! Do you have any idea what you've just done?! I'll turn you into crowfood for this, you hear me?! I'll flay your pathetic little corpse!!”
[She spat at the apprentice, merciless blood thirst gleaming in her eyes. With one paw still at Mintpaw's throat, she raised her free forepaw into the air, long claws aimed at the apprentice's fluffy neck.]
No!! The entire Clan is watching! I'll be exiled if any harm comes to this mouse-brained piece of crowfood!!
[Robinsong snarled, putting her paw down but fur still standing on-end. She looked around the warriors' den.]
“Would anyone here be kind enough to fetch Cloudfang?! This stupid kit is Mad! She just tried to kill me!”
[She practically yowled at her Clanmates, her eyes still narrowed threateningly. She glanced at her chest wounds. Mintpaw's tiny clawmarks wouldn't leave scars, thank StarClan, or the apprentice would've been skinned alive by now.]
(( @leafpool- Oh, okay. > <;;
@Sumomo- Ohh...This add to her paranoia. > w < Perfect! My evil plans are coming together! o w @ ))_______________________________

Mintpaw
[Mintpaw was startled.]
No cat should be that angry. Even towards a Mad cat. she thought, bewildered.
[She closed her eyes and tried to even out her breaths.
She let her new-found senses wander.
The Madness had heightened them so she could tell if other cats had the Madness and where they were.
Something was bubbling in Robinsong's min but not the Madness.
It was frightening, this feeling.
She let out a breath and opened her eyes.
She had overpowered her need.. for now.
What was important was Robinsong right now.
Her bright green gaze was on her and she held those eyes just for a moment.]
"There's something terribly wrong with you.." she said with awe in spite of herself.
[She could tell something other than anger was seething from this cat but she couldn't identify it.]

"in times of great darkness, all you can do is smile, and move on"_______________________________ "come, come, gentle Robinsong, there is no need to act so hastily. This apprentice is clearly sick beyond common sense."
[Sagebell mewed as she padded up to Robinsong and Mintpaw. She looked down to Mintpaw and smiled]
"Come with me Mintpaw, I'll take you to Cloudfang, and she'll make you all better."
[She nudged Mintpaw in the direction of the Medicine Cat's den. Turning back to Robinsong, whom she towered over by about three inches, she again smiled at her]
"I apologize for her mussing your pretty coat, Robinsong, I know it's very important to you. But next time-"
[she looked into Robinsong's mismatched eyes]
"do not let the darker side of you act up in front of the whole clan"
[she whispered, then turned back around and led Mintpaw to Cloudfang.]

R o b i n s o n g“Beauty has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”_______________________________________“StarClan knows there is.”
[She growled softly into Mintpaw's ear as Sagebell approached. Her gentle words did little to calm the storm brewing within her mind. She glared challengingly back at Sagebell, her opinion unwavering, even in the face of her fellow Clanmate. Her height made no difference either; it didn't scare nor interest her.]
“I'll act how I please. It's Mintpaw here who needs to be cured of the Madness, not me.”
[Robinsong spoke darkly as she padded after Sagebell and Mintpaw out of the warriors' den. The camp was no longer safe for her. Once she saw Sagebell and Mintpaw disappear into the medicine cat's den, she padded out of camp and into the forest to hunt, and hopefully burn off some of her anger.]_______________________________

"in times of great darkness, all you can do is smile, and move on"_______________________________ "You stay here and wait for Cloudfang, alright?"
[Sagebell nodded to Mintpaw, then left the den to satisfy her roaring stomach.]
'How long has it been? Two days at least'
[she thought to herself, her mind set on food.]
'He keeps slipping away. That piece of crowfood...'
[she grimaced slightly, then instantly returned to her cheery demeanor. The fresh-kill pile was stacked high, but it would take at least four of the fish in there to satisfy her stomach.
Not wanting to appear a glutton, she traveled down to the river and dipped her long forelegs into the icy waters. She waited patiently as a small shadow appeared above her paws.]
"not big enough"
[she muttered, and let it go. Soon enough, a healthy sized shadow darted between her dainty paws. Quick as lightning she batted it out of the water and against a nearby rock, taking small delight in the tiny "crack" as it's head bashed against the stone. She padded over to examine her work, and was instantly satisfied. That fish had to be at least two tail-lengths. She then bent her head down and started munching ravenously on the poor fish, her tail swaying lazily.]

Mintpaw
[Mintpaw kneaded her paws uneasily.
She couldn't just sit here and wait.
She was all jumpy and after the Robinsong incident, she wanted so very badly, to sink her claws into something.
She dashed out the clearing, her long legs stretching to their full limit and speeding her through the entrance.
She didn't stop when she came across the river, she just sped even faster.
Her legs, almost wobbling from the intense run, made their final exertion and gave a graceful leap into the water.
Her breath instantly came a little faster.
Mintpaw had always been a little uneasy when it came to the water.
She just didn't have the natural ability that all Seaclan cats had when it came to swimming.
She churned her paws but the technique had left her tired and breathless.
Unable to attempt to swim any longer, she let herself float.
It was one thing she could do that many others couldn't.
She lie there with the cool sensation of the water lapping gently at her fur and hot sun warming her fur.
She enjoyed this so much.
It made her remember the days when everything seemed normal, and when she wasn't infected with the Madness...]

"in times of great darkness, all you can do is smile, and move on"_______________________________ [Out of the corner of her eye, Sagebell saw a blur of color and fur dive full on into the river. Abandoning her almost eaten fish in order to check it out, she saw Mintpaw floating in the river. She sat down by the bank and watched the peaceful apprentice.]
"I see you got restless?"
[Sagebell asked.]
"Nonetheless, sick cats shouldn't be out in the river, especially if they might not have the strength to get back out in these currents"
[she warned, her pale yellow eyes gazing lazily out on the river.]
