[ tag list ! @MOORPAW @Adderpaw @HARRIERPAW @BLUEPAW ]

Somehow, for better or for worse, this was Cottonpaw's idea. During her detention, the young apprentice had heard of a couple warriors complaining about a nuisance on the moors. A dog, some of them called it, though many refuted that it even was that. Supposedly the beast in question was measly in size and at worst, annoying. Unfortunately due to its loud barking, much of the newleaf prey has dispersed elsewhere. Even they are unwilling to listen to the noise, she supposes!

Regardless, a plan hatched in the grey smoke's head, and with much convincing she was able to drag her siblings along into it. They're all under a sort-of grounding, now, for their own safety - but surely their mentors and parents would be more proud than upset if they handled the issue, right? That's how Cottonpaw figured it would end up, anyways. She didn't really pay mind to how each of her siblings may have felt about the incoming encounter after they agreed to it.

"Mmmm... I heard that it was closer to the horseplace..." her tail twitches as she tries to gauge the direction better. Borders, she was alright at - the scents muddled in her mind's eye still but she could at least decipher a tree line from a thunderpath. Actual landmarks, however, are still difficult for her. "Would that be this way?" she poses the question to any one of her more knowledgable siblings, hopeful that at least one of them retained the knowledge. ​

 

[BLUEFROST]

Bluepaw pads behind Cottonpaw, her tail flowing behind her like a bright silvery banner. She'd thought the idea to hunt down a dog harebrained, really, but her siblings had more or less talked her into it. She's no coward, not like they want to say! She's Sootstar's daughter, Sootstar's apprentice. What do they know about bravery!

She still wears a pout from the earlier taunting. Bluepaw looks at Cottonpaw with a dull expression, shrugging. "I don't remember the Horseplace... Mo- Sootstar and I didn't get very close." She looks expectantly to one of their moor runner siblings. Surely they were more familiar with their above-ground territory?​

Life doesn't discriminate

Adderpaw walks alongside the rest of his siblings, eyes of hellfire skimming the vast stretch of rolling moorland ahead of them. Cottonpaw talks them all into fending off some dog harassing their prey and being a nuisance overall. "Did any of the warriors mention what this dog looks like?" He questions gruffly, turning his attention upon his grey sister. He'd never seen a dog before, so he would like to have some kind of description to go by. Another question is eventually prompted as Adderpaw takes half a second to slow his stride in thought. Although Sunstride never took his directly to horseplace he knew the general location of it. "Yeah it's over that way, just up ahead. You can always tell by that giant twoleg den and their strange standing sticks." He voices with a flick of his tail. ​

[HARRIERSTRIPE]

Harrierpaw is unamused by this journey, finding it to be a waste of time… Then again, nothing but chores awaited him back at camp, maybe if they got the chance they could bring down the dog? Harrierpaw has to suppress a purr at the thought of receiving tremendous praise for his strength and bravery from his clan.

”I’ve heard its yaps before.” Harrierpaw adds, his voice low as he braces his limbs for an uphill climb. ”We just better hope its not sunning by the twoleg nest.” If defending their prey from it was truly their motive, they’d have to hope for it to be traveling along the twoleg fence.

Once fully up the hill his yellow eyes travel until they reach the horseplace, he leans forward trying to make out the location of the dog.​
