"How about over here?" She called, standing beside a tree whose roots covered a small sheltered place.

Flamestar padded up to Dreamspirit, inspecting the small-den like cave she had pointed out. "Any chances of wolves or foxes or badgers in there?" she asked carefully, sniffing the hole.
It faintly smelled of fox, though it must have been many days before when the fox had left its temporary home. "Well, it seems okay but what if the fox comes back?" Ever since they had left camp, she had been a bit jumpy, though she had to stay calm for the cats' sake.
Her fur slicked back and pressed against her fur considering it was faintly raining, Flamestar turned to Tangletail, rain streaming down her white muzzle as she thought it over and her eyes darkened in the now lightning-light sky. "What do you think?" she murmured quietly.

Shatterpaw narrowed her eyes. This could go well or badly. "This is the perfect place to stay, but there is a chance the foxes could come back, however slim." She grinned slyly, "I'm sure we could take them," but then it slipped away into a frown. "But we might not want to take the chance of one of us getting injured."

"We need to find the best place. This is good but what if it's more then one fox?"

Shatterpaw narrowed her eyes, thinking. "There are enough of us. We could take two or three foxes. Any more and we could be in trouble."

"Very well. We can stay here but I want to look for herbs while we stay."

Shatterpaw nodded, and padded a ways into the cave and sat down. She was tired after the long hike, but knew she would need to hunt soon.

*Yawns, lying on Flamestar's back but with ears pricked, listening to everyone* I'll take the first shift. *Grins* After all, I have been the one sleeping all day. *Pats Flamestar's back with one paw, then jumps down and sniffs the fox hole* I think it will all be fine, smells like this fella hasn't been here in StarClan knows how long. *Shrugs, eyes bright and actually feeling kind of proud to be a nocturnal animal* We'll be fine. *Chatters for a second, trying to reassure them before taking her post outside the deserted foxhole den*

Shatterpaw watched the marten take its post, and started to lie down when something off in the woods caught her eye. Her icy eyes narrowed. What was that? Slinking past the other cats, she scented the air. There was nothing until the wind suddenly changed, and the scent of fox filled her nose. Her eyes widened, and she shouted. "Foxes! The foxes are coming! Everyone, get ready!" Shatterpaw fell into a battle crouch, waiting to see if the foxes would leave the forest and face the group.

Flamestar jumped to her sock-white paws, her fur bristling already at the thought of foxes. She snarled, also getting into the defense postion. With the ginger fur along her back standing up, she looked two times her usual size.
"How many do you count?" she growled quietly, directing the question towards Shatterpaw. Without waiting for an answer, she narrowed her eyes in the growing darkness, her fur still bristing with anger as she tried to count all of the foxes. It looked around the numbers of five or six, maybe even eight. Not good! she thought to herself with a flash of resentment.
If only she had been the one to keep watch! Of course she knew Duststorm could have done it, she still felt the weight of all this on her considering she was the one who also allowed the horned marten. Now, because of her foolish mistakes, they could all be killed!
What in StarClan's name have I done and gotten us into now?

Shatterpaw counted the foxes in her head. One, two, three...damn! "I see seven...this could be bad." Her claws kneaded the ground, and her eyes flashed. Though she was itching to fight, if any one of them died, it could mean the end of Deathclan. "What should we do? Charge, or have them meet us here?"

Tangletail had stayed behind so she wouldn't slow the cats down. Her bones ached from the long hike over here, she suddenly heard the cats yowls of terror. Despite the pain in her paws, she raced over to the den that they were in.

Sandheart suddenly whipped around and snarled, seeing the big orange-red animals coming towards the band of cats-and two dogs and horned marten.

"Sandheart..." Flamestar growled through cletched teeth, "What do you advise we do? Attack them right on or wait till they get to us?" she asked, repeating the question Shatterpaw had asked her just a minute ago.
"I think it all depends on how much supplies we have..." she added, muttering something else under her breath as she looked around, wary still. It looked like everybody was here...Dreamspirit, Sandheart, Shatterpaw, Duststorm, Tangletail...Yeah, that was everyone. She hoped.

Tangletail snarled as she leaped onto one of the fox's backs; it snarled and tried to rip her off, but she held. Her claws dug into it's shoulders, drawing blood that matched with it's pelt. Suddenly, one of the foxes grabbed Tanglestar's scruff and threw her against a tree. It bit into her pelt, biting into her flesh. She yelped from pain.

Old habit kicked in, and Shatterpaw yowled. She clawed the face of one fox, and she feinted right as its swipe missed her. Dancing around its back, she leapt through the air onto the fox attacking Tangletail, and bit deep into its throat. She tore, and knew that the fox would die. One down. Even in its last moments it bucked her off, sending her flying through the air. Another fox leapt on top of her as she went down, claws raking her side. She hurried to her feet, tail lashing, slashing the fox's underside.

"Kill some, but we need our strength," she answered, between slashing a fox with her claw and dodging random attacks.
