Seapaw looked up as she heard a series of "ooh"s and "eb"s coming from another cat. At first, she thought it was one of those ocean cats, speaking in a horrible language with another, and she was filled with sudden fear. Suddenly, the cat was next to her behind the rock, and she sighed in relief, scenting PineClan on her. She had blue eyes, and was obviously a PineClan medicine cat apprentice, which was made obvious by the bundle of cobwebs clamped between her jaws and the sweet scent of herbs and leaves wafting off of her fur. Seapaw was suddenly envious of the pretty she-cat, but grateful that she had come. Standing up, she managed a "thanks" as she leaned on the cat's shoulder and they hobbled over to a large rock farther from the fighting so that the cat could help her. "What's your name?" she mewed, wincing in pain as she sat down slowly on the rock. She wondered why the she-cat had not been at the gathering, and then realized that she might have been caring for the cat who had been apparently mauled by a bear. She wondered how this cat was doing, but these thoughts were interrupted as her leg began burning in pain again, and she let out a low hiss at the sudden shot of agony.

Yowling, Raindance burst into SandClan territory alongside Moonstar, clanmates fast behind, and threw herself on top of the nearest unframiliar cat, who was fighting what seemed to be a PineClan apprentice. She was atop the dark furred tom in a second, and noticed that he had a lean, scruffy body with well-built muscles ripling under his pelt. Digging her claws into his back, she began scratching at the back of his head. He looked like he could take a beating quite well, so she had a feeling it wouldn't be enough. Then again, at least it was something, seeing as a warrior, epsecially one of his strength, attacking an apprentice wasn't exactly a fair fight. "Leave this land!" she hissed, "Leave and never come back!"

The PineClan medicine cat apprentice reached the rock with the hobbling apprentice and placed the cobwebs gently down on the hard, stone surface. She then selected a few wisps of the translucent material and began to stretch it over the other apprentice's wound, hoping to stem the blood flow. Ideally, she would give the cat poppy seeds for when she set the leg back into place but there werenone on the beach and Skypaw didn't know where to find any in this territory. "My name is Skypaw." She meowed softly, blue eyes taking in the details of her broken leg, "And I'm going to have to press down on your leg to get it straight. I'm afraid it'll hurt quite a bit." The brown and white cat used a paw to slide a rock over to the injured cat, "You can bite that if you like." She then took a deep breath to calm herself, banishing all self-doubts and wishes that her mentor was here, before quickly bringing her weight down on the jutting out bone, pressing until she was satisfied that the leg was back in place. "I didn't need your help!" Spat Adderpaw angrily at SnowClan's deputy as he swiped out a paw in an attempt to claw the sea-cat's muzzle, "I can take care of this piece of mouse dung myself!"

Dark hissed and wheeled round, scoring his claws down Raindance's shoulder, his dark fur bristling as he turned his piercing gaze onto Adderpaw, his eyes mocking and hate-filled. The tom turned his head, body language menacing and livid.

Sunpaw arrived at SandClan territory after tripping and tumbling as best as she could. Spotting a pale ginger tom[Sun.], she stalked forwards and hissed raking her pin-like claws down his nose while he was looking the other way.

Horizon leaped into battle, she had lingered at the edge of the fighting, for she knew where and who these cats were. And who must be among them. Her fiery pelt turned a blur as she streaked across the battlefield, dodging multiple blows as she ran. Skidding to a stop at the other side, she had the wind knocked out of her as another cat leaped on top of her. Moonstar hissed furiously as she struggled to keep a grip on the squealing Tribe cat. Raking her claws deep into Horizon's back, the flame-pelted cat finally threw her off. Moonstar landed in the sand with a dull thud, but immediately leaped to her paws, bristling.

Adderpaw was not a cat who could just ignore being mocked, openly or not. At that glance so filled with contempt and mocking, he yowled angrily and launched himself at Dark, biting every inch of the tom he could reach.

Dark yowled in anger and latched his front claws onto the tom's side, digging in as deep as he could while his back legs scrambled at his belly. The tom's eyes flashed dangerously, flames slinking through them.

Ghoststorm raced onto the sands, trying hard not to slip as he sometimes did on this horrible terrain. He gathered himself to leap at Dark but figured Raindance could handle the tom and so scanned the beach for a cat he could fight. There was a strong-looking tom locked in battle with Wavestar but he didn't join that fight either, prefering to go one-on-one. Anythign more was cheating and Ghoststorm didn't want it to look as though he needed to cheat to win. The tom suddenly spied a silvery-white she-cat slinking about a rock next to three apprentices and, assuming she would be a good warrior that had been posted to look after the apprentices, launched himself at her, hissing a challenge.Moon's already wide eyes widened even more in shock as large, well-muscled tom threw hismelf at her, claws glinting in the dusky light. She squirmed back and forth in silent pain as he scored his claws down her sides but managed to get a fair bite on his foreleg. It wasn't really anything that could match him though. Moon wasn't even a boat-guard!

Seapaw sat cooperativley as the she-cat began covering the bleeding wounds with cobwebs. Feeling a little better, she was just about to let herself relax about the situation when Sunpaw pushed a rock towards her and told her to bite it. "What are you?..." Seapaw suddenly hissed in pain as the medicine cat apprentice began adding weight to her leg. "Sure, break it again why don't you!" she choked. With a sickening pop that made Seapaw's head spin, the leg was suddenly back in place, and hurting more than anything had hurt in her life. Clenching her jaws together, she let out a low, strangled sound, but did no more. The pain was so immense in her leg that it seemed to be spreading through her whole body at once.
Raindance hissed as Dark's claws cut through her shoulder. "You think you could fight him by yourself?!" she mewed in amusement, throwing herself at the bedraggled tom. The PineClan apprentice certainly was arrogant. Suddenly, a glint in the tom's eye seemed to anger the ginger apprentice, and he was suddenly throwing himself at the ocean tom. Yowling in protest as she watched Dark and Adderpaw begin to fight again, Raindance ran at the tom from behind, slamming into him with all the force she could muster. Hissing, she raked a sharp claw through his pelt and skidded on the sand, nearly loosing her balance.
Wood's eyes widened in alarm as he watched a land cat attack Moon. Hissing in sudden, unexpected fury, he flet his muscles bunch. He wanted desperatley to fight, his muscles screamed to be released, he could almost feel the air whipping about him as he flew towards the strange cat but...what would the others think of him if he did? Too late, he realized. He had thought too long, and now Fish was already upon the other cat. He wached as his brother landed upon the back of the sliver and black tom.
Fish was leaping through the air. How dare this cat try and hurt Moon? She was only helping to revive his friends, and the sudden attack by the silver and black tom angered him immensley. He landed with a thud on the back of the cat, and raked his claws through his fur, watching blood spill out from the breaks in the skin.

Dark yowled and did a kind of backwards roll, knocking Raindance away, he turned and leapt once more at the she-cat, claws skidding across the slippery sickle of sand, he aimed his claws for her shoulders, being the place on an opponent he attacked most. -- Sunpaw and Sun of Pale Light circled each other for a few seconds, and suddenly Sun leapt, pinning the apprentice to the ground and slamming hard into the sand, closing his eyes until the fragments from the ground cleared, he hissed and swiped a set of claws down Sunpaw's belly.

Moonstar leaped back, and Horizon leaped forwards. Just at the last moment, Moonstar thrust all of her weight upwards, and Horizon gasped as she was thrown backwards. The SnowClan leader had become hard of all those years up in the mountains, but there was a motherly instinct deep inside her. Pinning Horizon of the Falling Flame down, she bared her teeth and hissed, "We don't want you here! Go back where you came from!" Horizon's eyes blazed with anger, but Moonstar was surprised to see something else in there too, but was unable to regognise it.

Shadowpaw was deep inside SandClan territory. Over the last few hours, she had managed to remember who and where she was. She was part of SandClan. But it was not her rightful place. Padding out onto the beach, she was surprised to hear the tumults of battle raging up ahead. Hesitating, she proceeded forwards.

Unprepared for this vicious attack, Adderpaw could do nothing but yowl, very loudly, in pain and an unprecedented amount of rage. How could this mangy old sea-cat be beating him? He wouldn't let it happen - he couldn't! then suddenly, the searing pain in his side was gone and he looked up with pain-dazzled green eyes to see Raindance smashing into the dark tom. He felt a flicker of relief but stubbornly told himself he could have done it, if she'd have given him a chance. "Hey! What do you think you're doing?!?" He yelled at the silvery cat with misdirected anger, "I'm going to win by myself!" The arrogant ginger apprentice then threw himself back at Dark, claws extended, hoping to repay some of the damage.
Skypaw's wide blue eyes filled with sympathy at the obvious pain Seapaw was in. She hated it when healing was painful. The little brown and white cat wished harder than ever that she had some poppyseeds but, unsurprisingly, none came. Suddenly a yowl filled with pain and fury split the air. She recognised the voice. Skypaw's head whipped around and she tensed, scanning for her brother. When she saw him her heart jumped into her mouth, he was practically having his insides clawed out! Her horror turned to disbelief as he leaped back up, bleeding heavily, and jumped at his attacker alongside a greyish she-cat. "Oh, Adderpaw. You can be such a mouse-brain sometimes." She meowed softly to herself, worry in her eyes despite her words.
Ghoststorm hissed in surprise and pain as little claws were suddenly scored across his back, creating shallow, but annoying, scratches. He raised one forepaw to give the cat beneath him a powerful blow that should daze it for a while, even if it was a strong warrior, before rolling off her onto the floor, belly-up, hoping to squish the apprentice on his back. He knew he couldn't stay like this for long though, or one of the other apprentices would jump on his exposed stomache.

Suddenly, Fish was being flung around, and then smothered against the sand, but this time, he ad a facefull of fur. He could barely breathe, and, struggling to get out from under the tom, realized he couldn't move his limbs. The best he could do was force his mouth wide open and push his fangs as far into the other cat as they would go. He felt air escaping from his chest and tried to take a breath, but got a mouthfull of silver hairs instead. He tried to choke them out but couldn't. He was getting dizzy. It was so dark...
Wood watched in horror as his fish-brained brother was squashed against the sand by the silver tom. Knowing now was the last chance he had to do something good for his brother, knowing how stupid it had been not to attack the cat before, he padded forwad heasitantly a few steps before narrowing his eyes, barring his jaws, and leaping upon the exposed belly of the cat. Regaining his footing, he dug his front claws into the chest of the cat to keep a grip on him, while his hind claws scrabbled away furiously at the soft, pink skin. Yowling in anger, he willed the cat to get up and release his brother.
At the sound of a horrible yowl, Seapaw followed Skypaw's gaze until she saw what the she-cat was looking at with horror-stricekn eyes. Jaw dropping open, the stone in her mouth tumbled out, clacking against the rock on which she was sitting, and she hissed. Her new friend was so arrogant, unwilling to give up, and had blood pouring out of his side. She stood up instinctivley, but barely even took a single step before giving another strangled hiss of pain and collapsing on her broken leg.
Raindance grunted as she was flung off of the dark-furred ocean cat and hit the ground with a defeaning thud. Standing up and shaking he head, she saw Adderpaw fling himself at the opponent again, and her eyes bulged in disbelief. "You're bleeding! Get away from this ocean cat, he'll claw your eyes out in the state you're in!" she yowled in alarm. Running back to where the cats were fighting, she bit into an area of the cat's tail where there was no fur, just skin, figuring it was probably a scar from an earlier battle that would be easily hurt.
