smudge

Guest
All she'd done was hop down from the twolegplace fence onto the forest side. And oh, for her crimes, she'd been accosted! A violent song, the beat of wings by her ears! Smudge weaves through the sparse undergrowth beneath the pines, hopping rocks and leaping over small ditches as an angrily chirping something tries to keep her away from a nest that he hadn't even known was there. It's a stroke of luck that he doesn't try to duck into one of the metal dens scattered around, for if he had, he would not be steadily making his way into SkyClan territory chased by a very determined robin.

A cat-scent clings to their nose and Smudge turns tail towards it, crashing through the shrubbery towards whoever it might belong to. This may get her into more trouble than she would face squaring off against the robin, but for Smudge it would be an acceptable turn of fate.

"Help! Help! Oh, you rotten bird!" She curses the chirping menace as she dives behind one of the strange cats and flattens herself to the forest floor, paws over her ears. Too loud, too loud! And violent!

// please wait for either @Bananasplash or @Drizzlepaw !

"C'mon now, theres gotta be something out here for us to catch," Came the rather disgruntled voice of a young warrior as they trotted along beside a grey tabby cat. A cream striped tail waved out behind them as they moved and then turned to their grey furred companion with a huff, "I swear everything has been chase off from here to fourtrees with all these cages around!" Bananasplash gave a small huff in annoyance at their failure to find even a measly mouse or vole for them to bring back to camp.

Then there was crashing through the brush and ears perked up at the sound, what was that? Curious as they got closer but then a dark furred cat came bustling through the undergrowth towards them yelling about help. Help? Where they hurt? Though as they rounded around a fern bush, Bananasplash came across this smaller, dark furred cat that was being pecked to death by a robin. What in Starclans name was this? This smile crossed her maw as she regarded the young cat before bounding forward towards the robin, swatting at it with unsheathed claws.

"Get outta here, ya mangey bird!" She yowled with a little laugh behind her words. A robin, determined as ever, chasing down a cat. What a sight she'd never thought she'd see. Must've done something to the poor bird for it to come after them like that! Maybe there was a nest nearby that they hadn't seen? Bananasplash wasn't sure, but this bird could make great prey! If it would stop attacking this kittypet.

"SPEECH"


There's nothing I won't understand .°☀

"I'm sure we'll find something." Drizzlepaw follows Bananasplash vigilantly, keeping his eye out for anything they could hunt. He has to agree with her on this one, prey did seem like it was getting harder to find. At least the clan wasn't starving, but it was surely frustrating, something SkyClan didn't need as their numbers kept decreasing. He tried his best not to think about it any longer, keeping his attention on traversing the undergrowth.

He's especially taken by surprise as the outsider tumbles close to them, as he flies off the ground and yelps before he lands back down. He shakes his head and tries his best to regain his focus as the smokey cat cries for help, and spots the robin pecking at them. He takes a breather and then laughs, half finding it funny and half as a release of the sudden adrenaline. "You got this Banana!" He cheers as he lowers the front half of his body, wiggling, and ready to pounce if needed.​

) "What's all the commotion?" Bearheart was truly at a loss as he arrived on the scene, only be confronted by the sight of Drizzlepaw cheering on Bananasplash as battle was waged against an aggressive robin, and then there was also a stranger begging for help. Yeeeeaaah... he wasn't going to get involved, nope! The large tom sat himself down so he could watch the show whilst trying to cobble together an understanding of what he was witnessing.
 
Blazestar isn't accustomed to hearing the angry squawking sounds, and the assault on his ears causes them to flatten. He gestures for @Coyotepaw to stay alert. Blazestar has taken Coyotepaw climbing today, although the low-hanging branches are as high as the Ragdoll feels fit to go. He pads to the thinning tail-end of his branch, dark eyes flashing with amusement at the sight below. A startled kittypet takes cover behind Bananasplash, a bird now swooping close to them both in furious aerial attacks. Drizzlepaw and Bearheart are nearby.

"Remember this sight," he purrs to Coyotepaw, amused. "Birds can get very aggressive around their nests in newleaf. If they even think you're looking at their eggs, they'll come straight for you!"

He calls to Bananasplash, Bearheart, and Drizzlepaw, "It won't try to fight all three of you at once! Someone give it a good smack so it'll leave this poor kittypet alone." His ears twitch. He'll ask about the intruder's intents when the bird is gone. The comforting scent of housefolk on the cat's tabby fur is enough for his own hackles to lie flat.

Angry at all the things I can't change
Although Blazestar finds it more comforting to cling to the lower branches, Coyotepaw ventures higher up. Bounding and leaping through the scattered boughs now that his training was back into effect. He movement however halts when a harsh screeching grating to the ears pierces the sky. The flick of the ragdoll's tail pulls him closer, dropping down several branches to peer through the pine needles obscuring his vision. A persistent bird could be found swooping and diving at some poor cat while Bananasplash aids in fending it off. A single flaxen ear flicks, listening to Blazestar's wisdom as he proceeds to take a seat upon his selected branch. "Commendable..but foolish." He murmurs softly, continuing to watch the scene unfold. Surely that bird did not think it could truly handle a cat?
