     ❧  ♨[Galespirit nodded.]
"Nice to meet you, Treepaw," he said in a very friendly tone.
[It also seemed that even other clan members were no exceptions to Galespirit's kinship motto. Every cat was his brother, and every cat was friend.
Just then, a cat entered the clearing. He padded over and greeted Thunderpaw, who averted her eyes immediately. Curious, Galespirit turned.
He found himself faced by a large crimson-eyed cat.
His deep, blood red eyes surprised Galespirit. They were filled with mild interest, but Galespirit could sense deeper- they felt annoyance at Thunderpaw's inability to look them in the eye, and frustration that they caused cats to fear them.
Galespirit stared into the crimson eyes without flinching or feeling fear.
They seemed to hold the Madness!
No...the closer Galespirit looked, the more he realized that there was a different type of Madness within those bloody eyes.
It was more of a Wildness.]
"Wild..." he whispered in a voice so soft, it would have been inaudible to most cat's ears.

Treepaw stared at Fathom,the new Deputy seemed annoyed by Thunderpaw for the cat would not look him in the eyes.

 [Fathom was shocked.
This cat was the first cat to ever look at him in such a way.
The cat's sky blue eyes pierced his without fear.
Fathom stared back, suspicious.
They stared at each other for a few moments before Fathom realized that it must have looked strange to other cats.
Just then, the other cat murmured, "Wild..."
It was so soft, Fathom almost didn't hear. But he did.
His gut dropped.
How? How had the cat known?
Yet, the cat seemed not to be afraid of the wild in Fathom-more intrigued than anything.]
Narrowing his eyes, Fathom gruffly said, "I'm Fathom. Now, what has Nightstreak done?"

[Fathom's eyes widened. He turned to Treepaw, shocked.
How...when....why?!
He snarled.]
"Is this some kind of joke?! Why would you accuse my clanmate of such things?" he hissed at Treepaw, his crimson eyes filled with rage.

[I was surprised. Why would Fathom not know of it yet?
I couldn't look him in the eye because I felt guilty about Nightstreak. I had just stated that we needed a cathunt to go out for him!
But Fathom didn't know. He seemed annoyed that I wouldn't look him in the eye, as if I couldn't.
I'll prove him wrong.]
"Because he's been infected with the madness," I hissed angrily, glaring at him, "and he attacked our camp, our apprentices, and is chasing one of them, Jadepaw, in an attempt to kill."
[I glared defieantly into Fathom's eyes. I wasn't afraid of him. I never was.]

Treepaw's tail fluffed out and his neck fur rised."I'm your Clanmate also."Treepaw snarled at Fathom in his face.

  [Thunderpaw glared defiantly back at him.
It was obvious now that she didn't avert her eyes out of fear. He almost admired her fiery spirit.
But her words struck him at heart.]
"How?" he croaked hoarsly.
[Then he realized something.]
"It's another curse, isn't it?" he said, dread filling his eyes. "And...my clan...was the target this time."
[He looked at Thunderpaw, but looked through her. Pain ripped through him. He closed his eyes.
His clanmates were being driven...mad...by something, and even BreezeClan knew before he did. What a wonderful way to start out his new deputy status.
He had been too late to save Nightstreak. That killed him. The young warrior was strong and brave...and now, his name was spoiled by the curse of some invisible monster.]
Growling, he hissed, "I'll not let this pass. We may be targeted, but I will save my clan, and any other cat, from the claws of this curse! Even if it means killing my own clanmate....but he's most likely already in StarClan. The Madness has consumed what he once was, and it is the Madness I will destroy."
[Fathom stared ahead, his eyes fixed on the forest, where Nightstreak was huinting a terrified apprentice.
He would stop him.
His eyes filled with determination. Nothing would stop him now.]

(@Thistleclaw: It's alright, i just thought it wierd that there was a leader with the same first name as one of the deputies.)
Ravenfeather noticed Treepaw arguing with Fathom. Those red eyes, the couldn't bear to look at them for hardly a second."Freaky..." He murmered, hoping they wouldn't hear him.

 [Leopardpaw was sitting neatly, her tail vurled around her paws. Her ears were flickering, she was listening to everything at once. She heard about Jadepaw, she heard about Nightstreak, but then she noticed Fathom sitting with a StormClan apprentice. She tried to recall her name... Thunderpaw! She let her ears flicker toward the forest, toward home. She felt all sounds fall away, she heard a young cat yowl.] "Jadepaw!!!" [Leopardpaw took off and lit out of Twin Rocks. She tore through the forest, twigs tearing up her pads and thorns scratching her face. She felt blood trickle down her face, but she pressed on. She hoped someone would back her up...]

 Jadepaw [Jadepaw bounded through tree and shrubs as she ran from the cat stricken with the Madness. She could hear his heavy breathing as he got closer and closer, once, he was close enough to take a snap at her tail, though luckily he missed. Jadepaw was about to give up, when she caught the scent of the other Clan cats to her left. She laughed in relief and jumped over a log, putting Nightstreak further behind her. She was starting to lose strength.] "Help!!" [She cried.] "Someone, help, please!!!"[She leapt through the last ring of trees, only to run into a large boulder, far too massive for her to jump over. Jadepaw spun around quickly to find Nightstreak pacing back and forth, his eyes on her, though he was grumbling to himself.]

Troutail had been relatively quiet this gathering talking with a few cats and passing by Fathom as much as possible to listen to his conversation. He left when Fathom started to sound angry and saw a blur move past him. He turned to find there was a cat dashing to the forest. Please let this be a good reason for tresspassing on another clan's territory Troutail thought before dashing after the cat. "I better have a good reason for following you!" I told at the apprentice as I dashed after her.
Just tell me if I wasn't supposed to follow you okay

[Leopardpaw felt her paws start to wear. Then she heard a desperate vry and found a new energy. She knew the best strategy was to get behind the apprentice. She found the perfect opportunity: the giant rock. Her powerful hind legs propelled her upward and she leapt to the top of the rock. Jadepaw was huddled near the base, Nightstreak was pacing, his eyes glazed, his jaws foaming with froth.] "Ehhhyaaaahhh!!"
[Leopardpaw let out a battle cry. She hoped cats would hear her. Her pelt gleamed in the moonlight, she bared her frost white fangs. She leapt in front of Jadepaw, letting her catch her breath. Leopardpaw knew this cat's weakness: blood. She realized she had blood dripping down her face. He'll go for me now... At least Jadepaw will be safe... she thought.] "Jadepaw, get behind me. Catch your breath, then back me up. We'll need a lot of help if we can survive..."

[Leopardpaw saw a young warrior standing, staring.] "Help!" [She cried. She saw the warrior freeze. She figured he wasn't going to help. She focused all her senses on Nightstreak, trying to figure out a strategy and find his moves. She glanced around, and finally thought of the rock!]"Jadepaw! Get on the rock. I'll lead him until he's beneath you, then leap down and attack him. Don't let him bite you! Then, while he's busy with you, I'll make the..." [She froze. She didn't want to say.] "...kill."
