Crestheart the Warrior

His eyes followed Tornheart as the black and white cat slid out of the camp. Though tempted to follow, he knew the clan needed defense at this time so he reluctantly stayed where he was. Just where is that warrior going off to by himself. Crestheart lashed his tail, bothered by the sense that he had no knowledge of what was happening behind his back. Not just by the rogues out there in their territory, but within the clan. Petalbreeze wanted to drive Duskstar off, did the clan agree? Though his disrespect against Duskstar grew, he wanted to believe in him still.
He grits his teeth, eyeing the camp entrance with longing.

duskstar | forty moons ; leader ; tom ; tornheart, cobrastrike, smoke
just like with the battle against petalbreeze, duskstar made no moves to help his brother out. he had became so use to cobrastrike's incoherent ranting and raves that he no longer paid it any attention. instead, he turned his attention back to the deathberries and began to carefully plot out his idea. cobrastrike never liked to think and would run headfirst into any situation. but unlike cobrastrike, duskstar had sense. well, at least more sense than his brother. he motioned for tornheart to get away from the three and help him with the berries.

smoke

smoke doesn't flinch, knowing full well that cobrastrike couldn't fight him. He may get people to do the job for him, but smoke is definitely not small and could easily take on the mentally unstable cat,
"i suggest you take a few steps
back, cobrastrike... Unless you want another quarter of your tail gone..."
Referring to the one and only time cobrastrike himself had attacked smoke, ending up with a quarter of a tail gone and quite a few permanent scars,
"i've already been in one fight today and killing you would seem easy compared..."
There's a rather menacing undertone, as if smoke had had enough of cobrastrikes bossy nature; always getting cats to do the stuff he can't with threats and maliciousness, rather than doing his own dirty work.

If there was one thing Cobrastrike couldn't handle, it was stress. Well, actually, there were a lot of things he couldn't handle, but that was main one. "I do not need this!" he growled wildly as he began pacing circles around the group of cats, "Duskstar and I will never be able to rule this stupid forest if you rouges don't do what we ask! This is why we can't get anywhere! Because you four have bees in your brains! All of you! I repeat, all of you!" His pacing became quicker and quicker until suddenly, he stopped dead in his tracks and faced Smoke once more. "I may have lost my tail, you're right about that, but I'll make sure you lose your life!" He rushed around Duskstar, what was left of his tail just barely touching the leader's shoulder. "I will have Duskstar personally kill you, right here and now! We don't need you, Smoke!"

duskstar | forty moons ; leader ; tom ; tornheart, flame, cobrastrike, smoke
duskstar silently watched as cobrastrike ran circles around the group, wondering why he couldn't behave like a normal warrior. although part of him was proud that he was standing up to smoke, another part of him wished he would hush already. "calm down, brother," he growled, slapping cobrastrike's short tail away from him before turning back to smoke. "smoke, cobrastrike, you're not killing each other. we have to kill petalbreeze and breezekit first, gingerkit too if we have time."

smoke

ignoring duskstar he turns his head to flame, raising an eyebrow. There's no hostility or anger in the way he sits, or the way he stares, still nearly completely calm. He turns to duskstar briefly before swinging it back to cobrastrike again,
"getting another cat to do your dirty work again, cobrastrike? Are you weak, or just afraid of me? Scared, worried you may wake up one day to find me holding you over the gorge? Stuffing death berries into your mouth? Cutting open your throat while you sleep?"
He had listened to cobrastrike sleep talk a few times, his recurring nightmares the exact things he's listing.

Completely ignoring Duskstar, Cobrastrike just couldn't believe what he was hearing from Smoke. His blood began to boil from pure anger and anxiety filled his body again, his claws digging once more into the ground. With his tail beating wildly against Duskstar, his eyes narrowed. "You would say that to me," he began, "but you wouldn't dare say that to Duskstar! I'll be honest, maybe I couldn't kill you, but Duskstar can. He'll do anything I say!" He gave a glance to his brother, wondering why Duskstar wasn't immediately taking his side before gazing at Smoke. "Flame may be a mouse-brain but unlike you, she gets the job done. That's the whole reason she's here. She doesn't just let kits walk back to camp unlike you!" Secretly, he knew Smoke was right about the nightmares, it was something that haunted Cobrastrike every and all night. Though, he chose to let that slide, not wanting to even think about those kinds of dreams again.

smoke

smoke turns his attention to flame this time, tilting his head a little. He had noticed the way she was acting around him, quickly guessing her thoughts. Smoke is not dumb nor naive, wondering if she would attack him for cobrastrike,
"you heard your brother, flame... Well, i mean, the part after he called you a mouse brain... Do you think you could go into cloudclan camp and steal three kits; unnoticed?"
He questions, putting her on the spot. Generally curious as to whether she'd side with him or her psychopathic, bullying, brother.

Flame doesn't have any brothers.

_____________

For a moment, Flame was at a loss, unsure of what to say or do. Knowing how Cobrastrike was, she already knew that he wanted her to take his side but part of her wanted to take Smoke's side. He seemed, well, more caring than Duskstar and much more stable than Cobrastrike. But she knew this would mean death for her if she did anything but defend Cobrastrike, so she did. "Of course I could!" she declared with a false determination in her voice, "I could do anything Cobrastrike or Duskstar asked me to do! That's why I'm here!"

smoke

|sorry, I thought they were related. ^^"|

smoke swishes his tail, partly out of annoyance, partly because he had wanted the she-cat to take his side,
"so you'd voluntarily plod around, doing errands as dangerous as that, after these two sociopathic mouse-brains because you care for them, not because you're scared of them?"
He fixes his steady gaze on flame, his face blank apart from one unreadable emotion in his eyes,
"because Cat's don't usually stutter nervously when they're happily and voluntarily doing something."
He blinks steadily, his gaze still fixed intently on flame, as if asking her to choose between him or them; although no such question was so blatantly uttered.
