Foxfur:
I stop at the sound of a familiar meow behind me. I expect myself to be angry, but i'm not. I turn around and am relieved to have a friend in this. "I don't know..." I start, then shake my head and start over, "I think Riverclan are sick, or weak, or something - I need to find out, because they might need our help. I didn't tell anyone because..." a long, weighty pause, "Well, you know."

Hawktail:
Padding away from the she-cats with a heavy sigh and roll of my eyes, I pop my head into the nursery, "Everything ok in here, Snowclaw?" I ask the white queen that has taken care of kits all her life.
"Fine." She says, voice as cold as ever. I give the kits an apologetic glance.
"Ok, then, i'm going hunting." I say, licking each of my kits on the forehead before I leave.

(Okey! We won't post, I just wanted to quote this so I don't forget to respond to Fire later!)

Shadepelt:

I nod, not speaking; I don't need to say that I do know - I know that if she brought up her concern to Thunderstar, or the rest of the clan, they wouldn't understand her concern. They would want to stay away, they would fear the spread of an illness, or the possibility of an ambush. The leader of Stormclan is at an all time high for suspicion; she's never been so jumpy and protective. But it doesn't mean we can just stand by and let one of the four clans - or possibly two, if Shadowclan is sick as well - drop out of the forest like flies in Leafbare. I step forward, looking at Foxfur warmly, with friendship, with trust, "Ok," I say, "Lead the way."

Foxfur:
Somewhat - ok majorly - relieved to have a friend at my back, I stride purposefully to the small stream. It's as I thought; barely more than a trickle. As I leap the little path of water, I cause the dried reeds to rustle, and see several pairs of ears perk in my direction. Not trying to hide, I keep my tail high, and even give it a friendly wave. I pass through a well-worn tunnel in the fronds, and stop when I enter a narrow, oblong clearing. I gaze around at the Riverclan cats; all gaunt, with dull coats, and hungry eyes. None of them greet me with hostility, though some show wariness. "Hello." I say, my voice surprisingly resonant, "I am Foxfur, deputy of Stormclan, and I've come to see that everything's alright."

Hawktail:
When I return from my hunt (I think that's what I was doing...), I pad into the nursery to check on the kits. I only caught a few squirrels and some mice, so I feel no need to reward myself with a meal just yet. Poking my head into the warm, dark space, I immediately spy Thunderstar. "Hello>" I purr warmly to my mate, touching noses. I look at the kits, all snuggled placidly beside her, "No troubles, I hope?" I ask, not concerned so much as hopeful to start a conversation.

Thunderstar: "no troubles at all" I purr warmly nuzzling him

Shadepelt:

I can't help but admire the way she speaks to this clan of potential enemies. She doesn't sound the least bit nervous, but I know she must be quivering inside. I stand slightly behind her, at her right shoulder, with my head and tail high as well, but I feel myself cringe slightly under the heavy gaze of all these malnourished cats. After she finishes her introduction, I feel inclined to speak, so I do. "I am Shadepelt, a warrior of Stormclan, I have come to aid Foxfur in any way. We are here to help you, if you need it." I say, my meow a bit hoarse from the tension trembling down my whole body. I try to control it so no one can tell, but it's hard.

Hawktail:
I purr back, pressing my muzzle against her cheek and into the fur of her neck. I breath in her scent deeply, then pull back to gaze into her eyes lovingly. "It's so nice to have you back." I murmur, sure she'll know what I mean.

Foxfur:
I give Shadepelt a grateful glance, then continue speaking to the silent, baffled cats, "I know we've got no right to come onto your territory uninvited, but we are not here on Stormclan's behalf. Our clanmates do not know we've ventured onto your land, they don't even know we left." I pause guiltily, "The reason we've come is that we've noticed you have stopped marking your borders. We only want to make sure that you are all ok." I stop, short of breath from my long-winded explaination. I'm just waiting for a reaction to see what they think.
Finally, a large, grey tom stalks forward. He's bonier than I've ever seen, but I recognize him from gatherings all the same. It'd be hard to forget Greystar. He was born halfclan; half Riverclan half Stormclan, but his actual Stormclan father is unknown. The impressive thing is that he became leader at all. I wait for him to respond.
"Foxfur, Shadepelt, we are touched at your concern." He begins, sounding cold despite the thankful words, but when he continues, his voice trembles in hopeless desperation, "You are correct; we are weakened. It is not an illness of cats, but one of fish and birds that has struck our territory." His rasping meow makes me believe him. "No cat has fallen ill, we can even eat the sickly prey, but such prey is dying faster than we can catch or find it. It rots in our streams, poisoning our water. It falls from the sky; flying carrion landing all across our land..." He seems at a loss, and already panting and sighing heavily into a sitting position.
I step forward. "Say no more." I say companionably, "We will find a way to help you."
