✦ After his subordinate's misbehavior with Silversmoke, the scarred tabby had taken to keeping him indoors more often than not. He knew the black and white tom was bound to argue against it, but with all the chaos of the last few days, he wouldn't hear a word of it. The morning had begun to roll into mid-day, and every Skyclanner seemed out and about with their assignments. Better fetch him before some cat sends him off for chores. Padding over to the apprentice den, he called out into the gloom with an expectant voice. "Littlepaw! I'm in need of assistance today. Come join me in the camp clearing." Not waiting for a response, the cinnamon and white feline was off begin his initial mission. Having rested well and rehearsed some of their intended moves, Dogbite felt confident in the tasks ahead.
Strolling towards the nursery, he bent down and squeezed into the bush, popping out into the open space. Tattered ears perked as the cat he sought stood to the right of him, and in turn, they cast a soft smile of greeting. They'd reached out earlier that morning for Butterflytuft's help in keeping the youth in order, and thankfully she was willing. He'd been given the duty of defense training the prior day and knew not to dally much longer. Blazestar and Orangeblossom were relying on the healthier warriors to pick up the slack, and he would not disappoint. There was no telling if the rogues would get bolder just as they had in the past, and he'd make sure every cat was well prepared before then. They couldn't allow what transpired between the apprentices and rogues to ever occur again, so it was best to start with the more vulnerable.
Standing taller now, Dogbite nodded knowingly to the brightly colored she-cat, indicating for her to go ahead and begin gathering the little ones. "Thank you, again. Knowing someone who has more experience with kits is a major asset to today's event." The smile held strong as he cast a kind look to the moggy a sense of admiration lilting their tone. "I'm going to go ahead and get things started. See you there." Dismissing himself with a nod, the splotched feline exited through the mouth of the nursery. Hopefully, some cats would be in attendance and eager to learn. The foolhardiest of clanmates were patching up any open holes in the barrier, patrolling, sparring, and the like, so for a change, the camp was quite empty.
Clearing his throat, he called out loudly by the nursery as his good eye peered around. "Alright! I'm holding a defense session in the camp clearing today! Kits and Queens are encouraged to attend as well as Elders and Medicine Cats!" Dogbite felt odd rallying others, but knowing it was for the greater good eased the rising tension in his chest. They quicly left the holly bush and trotted into the aforementioned clearing. Deliberately steering past the fresh-kill pile and standing several lengths ahead of the warriors' den. Facing the gathering cats, he waited for them to pile in with a patient expression, tail held high, and maw lax with a neutral line running across their lips.
