Don't Mock Me!{Stoneheart, Open}

[Deleted]

Riddlehawk looked at Bluewillow and Goldenfur. That won't be neccessary, Goldenfur. I know how you feel, but calm yourself. he said, a slight sterness in his voice. Why did your medicine cat not come themself? Surely an escort would be sufficient protection for them.

Her ears flicked.

"They are busy tending to our ill."

Her ears flicked again, knowing FrostStorm was watching. It was easy to detect him, but this tom, RiddleHawk, could not appearently.

[Tanglekit]

While these cats had bickered Stoneheart found Tanglestar.

------------------

Tanglestar stormed through the clearing. "Needleheart. If your medicine cants wish to speak to Rainpaw thay are welcome to come here.", she said in a cam tone. "But we are not going to leave you and Froststorm, the tom I can smell, to kill a Thunderclan apprentice. Please leave in peace for you are severly out numbered.", she said relishing in the thouht of killeing her.

[Deleted]

Needleheart snarled in her face.

"We are not going to kill him, simply escort him to our Medicine Cats! Do you not understand that, you wretched hound?"

She hissed.

"Our Medicine Cats are busy!"

She could take them all on anyways, but even if she couldn't, she would know FrostStorm would not protect her at all.

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar hissed. "You dare call me a wretched hound.", she hissed. Her patience was just about run out. "He has no business in the Riverclan camp, and you have no business here. Riddlehawk, Goldenfur, Bluewillow back to camp", she ordered. She would feel better if they were in camp. She knew Needleheart and knew all to well what she would do to get what she wanted.

Froststorm remained high above in the branches, retracting himself into the shadows of the leaves. Things no longer seemed acording to plan. Why had the whole of ThunderClan shown up for this, when loners crossed in on their territory all the time, no doubt. He peered down at the other cats. Tanglestar would try to shred Needleheart if she remained down their, nd Froststorm knew if he joined the battle there would be no chance of getting to Rainpaw in the future. Unhappy, the pale tabby began to wonder if he should head back to RiverClan while he could.

[Deleted]

"But Tanglestar, we cannot leave you here without protection! Please Let us stey while they are still out-numbered!" she protested.

[Deleted]

Bluewillow. I'll stay. Just go. You needn't worry about us. I have unfinished business with these two but my better judgement overrules my will to exact revenge. He told her, flicking his tail. He knew Froststorm was there, but he wouldn't mention it. Come down, Froststorm. Come down from your lofty hideout. I seen you move up there. Don't hide. Come down and speak with me. Riddlehawk said calmly, serenly, not moving from beside Tanglestar. He was in a rather zenlike mood.

[Deleted]

Bluewillow stayed put, "Please Tanglestar, even if Riddlehawk stays they will no longer be out numbered. What use is it if our leader is injured?"

[Deleted]

Froststorm bared his fangs. He had had enough of Riddlehawk's lofty attitude, and his 'perfect' mind. The time for talk with this flea-bitten mongrel would never come. He wanted to just forget the plan and launch himself at the tom right then and there. The pale tabby with-held his pacience one last time, waiting until it was just Riddlehawk and Tanglestar. If things go well, Needleheart and I could dispose of them both.

[Deleted]

Bluewillow, do you doubt me? You saw how I fought to get you back during the Lurkclan raid before you were unconscious. You saw me fight during the battle with Riverclan. So why do you doubt me now? Riddlehawk said, looking at her with a calm expression. He turned his head to the treetops, smirking at them, taunting Froststorm right then and there. Let him leap down. He only acted this way to irritate him. He turned back to Bluewillow, his amber eyes looking at her calmly.

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar shook her head they had misunderstood her. "We are all leaving. Let's go back to camp. These fish are not our problem.", she said to her warriors. She turned back toward the camp. She swished her tail and signaledthem back to camp.

[Deleted]

Riddlehawk nodded to Tanglestar. He fell into step behind her, his massive tawny form hiding her from the view of the Riverclanners. He flicked his long brown tail, limping every so often from his bad paw.

[Deleted]

Bluewillow nodded and turned aroud, looking at Stoneheart, purring.

[Deleted]

NeedleHeart narrowed her eyes at them, just standing there, tail flicking back and forth. She looked up at the tree-tops, staring at FrostStorm. She murmur'd under her breath, starting to walk back towards RiverClan territory.
