Greyice quickly padded from the camp, knowing his fresh-kill would be fine until he got back with it. He had more important things right now. He arrived on the Island quickly, padding back and forth within the clearing nervously, glancing at the bridge every now and then. "Please, Swiftstar, please come and meet me...." He mewed softly. Then Swiftstar appeared. Her tail was held high. Her fur glistening, thoug she was leaner than he had hoped. Greyice smiled at Swiftstar, greeting his sister warmly. "This will be out first, and only, meeting." He told her. Swiftstar smiled and nodded. "True, my brother." She purred. "How fared WindClan?" She asked. Greyice smiled. "I'm trying to build the Clan up. Tell any loners you recruit to join WindClan. RicerClan hasn't marked their borders yet. It seems pretty deserted. Greencough might had swept through it, though I'm not quite sure which Clans are affected yet." He told her grimly. Swiftstar nodded. "Very well then. I'm swim to the other side if I were you." She purred. Greyice smiled. "I'm doing this only for my neice." He told Swiftstar, even as she padded away. "I know." Was her only reply. She paused at the bridge before jumping over and thuroughly soaking herself. Pulling herself to the other side, she grinned and winked back at him. Greyice smiled as he watched Swiftstar leave though he stayed a moment longer......

ooc: Greyice is still here, right?
bic: Chase quickly crossed the log bridge with Snowkit hanging from his jaws and the other two on his back. "Whoops." He mumbled, as he lost his footing for a split second, and then continued. He dropped the kits on the grass outside the clearing on the island. "Everybody okay?" He asked. "You saved us!" Snowkit said, awe in her voice. "Nah, that clumsy Bloodclan cat would have never caught you." Chase replied, non-chalantly. "Yeah! And if he did, I would have clawed his eyes out!" Bluekit said, boldly.

Greyice watched as Chase brought the kits. What the- He thought as he approached. He knew he still smelled like ThunderClan. He hadn't intended to go back just yet. "What are you doing with the kits?" He asked Chase, his tone holding the same speculative authority as Swiftstar's often held...

Bluekit jumped between Chase and Greyice and hissed. "If you're here to take us away, I'll claw your eyes out!" Chase picked her up and moved her behind him. He walked over to Greyice. "I saw them being chased by a huge Bloodclan cat." "He beat him up and hung him from a tree by his tail!" Bluekit yowled excitedly, trying to liven up the story. "Not exactly." Chase said. "I ran by, snatched, the white one. The other two stopped. The Bloodclan cat snatched them, I rammed into him. He dropped them and almost clawed me in half." He glanced at the clawmarks on his side. "I barely got away. Snatched the other kits and ran as fast as I could until I got to this place." He sped through his description as fast as he could.

"Oh but you didn't get away." The vice itself was enough to chill the ones and freeze cats in fear. Oath was not pleased, poison would feel her wrath, he couldn't even handle kits? Pah. It was fortunate her want to fill her belly had led her around here. She stepped out of the darkness, large frame swaying easily as she moved forwards muscles bunching and stretching under the long pitch-black pelt. Her eyes were slitted but there was a very ominous and hateful look about them. All she had to decide was which adult to kill first.
Her claws were all on, the longer, sharper, and far more deadly additives leant her by the dying lynx. They were unwieldily of course, but she had gotten used to them long ago. "You'll give back those kits if you know whats good for you. Thieving them was not a smart option." She hissed voice turned more menacing in the few moments she had been silent. Her rage had built and it was slim chances indeed any but herself and the kits would leave here alive, her voice seemed to make this clear. This was the older cats only chance. "If you want to have the kits see you bleed to death in horrible manner and forever scar their minds thats your affair, but ive decided to give you this one chance. Had them over know, and i won't kill you." She said standing barely a foot from the group of cats. "Try and run, and i will hunt you down, and kill you." She said icily, in case they were thinking of bolting.

Greyice approached her, deciding to attempt a bluff. "Oh, Swiftstar won't like this at all. Especially not after she found poor Illusion." Greyice purred to Oath, his icy blue eyes revealing no fear as he padded up to meet her and sat down in front of her. "I wouldn't touch those kits if I were you. Swiftstar knows BloodClan steals kits. I imagine Illusions' other self, Ghost, won't like this at all either. Do you really want a angry ghost panther killing you?" He asked, eyes narrowing. "I assure you. I know exactly where Illusion is and how to reach Ghost. Ghost will kill you. She owes me a favor, not that she'd object to killing BloodClan anyway." Greyice told her. His voice greatly resembled Swiftstars' as did his posture. He was making sure this cat would know who he was related to.....and who would call in this 'favor' if he died.....

Foxdung! Chase yowled in his mind. But he kept a calm look on his face as Greyice stepped in. Snowkit shivvered and hid behind chase while Stonekit stood beside her, giving her a reassuring look. Bluekit stood bravely beside Chase and Greyice, her fur bristling.

Oath narrowed her eyes further glaring daggers at the other cat, swiftstars kin if she wasn't mistaken. "You make the mistake of thinking that pathetically soft-minded cat and her alter-ego frighten me. They don't." She said softly, a deathly note to her words. "Now, last warning, hand over the kits and live to see tomorrow, all the better for their minds, of die, and i might even get them to join in the meal i can make of you and your little friend." She said softly eyes turning to the kits. "You would run? From the privileged chance of joining a clan better than any other? You would be made apprentices immediately given good names and brought up to be stronger than anycat." She asked the kits quietly. "Yu wold choose to run, and believe the soft fools who call themselves warriors. Oh poison was certainly going to be a crippled cat when she was through with him, she was furious.

Greyice grimmed. Suddenly, he didn't look quite so nice and polite anymore. "I believe the arrior Code only applies to those who live within it." He spat at her. "I see no problem with slaughtering you and if anyone corrupts the minds of those kits with the death of another, it will be ME." Greyice hissed, his voice cold and slick. Greyice's bulk quickly smashed into Oath while she was talking to the kits. He was quite strong and broad. Greyice had a lot of bulk to throw around and he actually had a murderous glint in his eyes. He stood to the side of Oath when he hissed. "Get up and fight for them." He hissed. "I'm not letting you walk away from here if you intend to take those kits with you, Warrior Code or no Warrior Code." Greyice hissed darkly. He was royally ticked now.....

Oath grunted as she was rammed into by the other at but she wasn't small herself, in fact she stood taller, and perhaps evenbroader than this kin of swiftstar. "Foolish choice." She said, slowly getting up, but springing from her crouched position with all speed as the other cat spoke, claws flashing out as she sailed through the air, aimed to land on the other cats back, of just slash at his face. She liked leaving cats bling. it made them more fun to play with.

Chase brushed Bluekit behind him and backed up, pushing them behind them with his tail. In a situation like this, he would simply run, but, well, he liked kits. "Go in there and climb one of those trees." He hissed at the kits. Snowkit and Stonekit ran to do as they were told, but Bluekit whined, "Why can't I h.." Chase brushed her aside with his tail and she ran after her siblings. Chase turned around and dashed forwards, slaming into Oath from the side, using his speed to add to the force.

Greyice dodged the blow, feeling the tips of Oath's claws hit his flank. His own claws wipped around to slash at the black she-cat. There was unmatched fury in his bright eyes. His lips curled back in a hiss as he struggled to claw at any inch of Oath he could reach.....

OAth would have taken the blow from greyice, had she not been pushed out of the way, by the other cat, she whirled around, regaining her footing and hissing, dancing backwards away from the first tom cats claws. her own eyes were slitted, their deep yellow not giving anything away, she however knew that she was playing a patient waiting game. She wouldn't tire, and even if she did that meant nothing, the moment she saw her chance they would die for making such a poor choice.

Chase backed up, flashing Greyice an apologetic glance. He lashed his tail waiting for Oath to make her next move. He knew his attack were too fast and it would be hard to stop if his opponet dodged. He decided to put his patience and stamina to good use and wait until the other cat tired out. He was mostly depending on his ally to do most of the work, as is seemed that he had more fighting experience.
The three kits scrambled up the biggest tree they could find. Bluekit poked her head out the leaves, yowling rather violent encouragment to her protectors. "Rip her fur out Greyice! Blind her Chase!" Stonekit joined her, silently watching. Snowkit stuck her nose in a dark corner and it came out covered with cobwebs. "Hey! Come help me!" She mewed, looking around. "Chase'll need some of this for his side!" "Greyice too if this gose on much longer." Stonekit murmered, joining his siter. But Bluekit stayed at her spot, watching the fight.

Greyice gave a violent hiss, intent on ripping Oath to shreds. He wasn't going to stop with just scaring her. If he actually hit, then Greyice might just kill her. Then something caught his eye. He barrelled into Oath anyway, his shoulder aiming to hit her chest and his claws aiming to rake her sides. He didn't stop at the grey figure he'd seen on RiverClan's side. He didn't notice the black and white cat come out, eyes focused on Oath's back. That is, he didn't notice her until she spoke....
"Hello, Greyice, Oath. Ghost wishes to fight as well. You don't want Ghost to fight. I'm not sure I'd be able to restrain her."

ooc: Hmm, should I bring Poison, Lyn, and Lex in, or keep them out? *thinks*
bic: Chase's heart jumped into his throat as she saw that cat that he had once seen transform into a...monster, and rip cats apart. He tried to keep calm As he turned back to Oath, preparing another rushed attack. He tensed his legs, thinking of an escape plan should his attack fail, and rushed Oath from the opposite side as Greyice, hoping to push her into his attack, making it more powerful.

Ooc- Oath would really love some assistance. =) Poison might be able to redeem himself enoug that she doesnt feel the need to tear him apart.
Oath hissed as Greyice barreled into her, she threw herself down, his claws leaving a few bare scratches on hr, her thick fur cushioning most of the blow. this dont her teeth snapped shut, striking the bite down hard on the there cats throat or chest, as her claws moved to his feet with a fierceness that could take off toes if the slashing motion hit the right place at the right time. She ignored Illusion for mow, though she knew the voice for who it was. Having pushed herself to the ground she heard the approach of the other cat and hoping she could maintain a strong and painful grip on greyice she turned, moving him quickly into the way of Chase's attack letting go with a spitting hiss before bounding back a few paces and surveying the scene in front of her, lappin up the blood from her side and licking her lips, her slitted eyes turning to greyice. "You know...its not my fault im not a soft little twerp like your kind." She hissed softly before raising her head and letting forth a furious caterwaul, loud enough to carry far through the silent night. a few birds chirping in panic and flying out of there nightly perch. Her eyes returned to the three who now opposed her. "as four you illusion, have you remembered anything yet? Hmmm? Or do you not? Would you kill me and have what i know lost forever? What I know about yourself and 'storm'." She hissed tauntingly. Oh she knew, she had been around when illusion knew storm.
"You will lose this fight."Rookpaw meanwhile glided silent through the air, having followed the scent of the kits all the way around to here, he landed lightly on a branch above the kits looking down at them, bringing his tailtip around over his maw, indicating silence. "Whats going on?"

ooc: Mkay. But lets bring the kits back to the camp soon.
bic: Chase, prepared for this kind of thing, skidded to a stop and quickly prepared to defend or attack again. He shook his head, feeling weighted down with all the strains of thinking up attacks and things. He was so much more used to running away.
Bluekit opened her mouth wide to start her graphic, loud explaination, but Stonekit put his paw on her muzzle. "I went to help Snowkit and Bluekit get away, and then this big cat started chasing us, and then that cat down there," He pointed his tail at Chase. "Saved us and brought us here, and that the other big cat came and found us, and Greyice came to help." He said this all very quietly, while pointing his tail at the cats he mentioned. Snowkit turned around with cobweb all over her paws. "Did you come to help too?" She aksed.
Suddenly, Chase felt himself knocked totally off his feet. A lovely tortoiseshell stood over him, looking at him with jeering eyes. "Come on! You aren't through that easily, are you?" She mewed, backing up. Chase scrambled at his paws and snarled angrily.
Poison smiled slightly from his place in the bushes. Lyn had done quite nicely. He glanced at Lex, who was right beside him. "Get the other one." He murmered, flicking his tail at the large Windclan cat. Lex nodded and darted out of the bush, lunging at his target's legs. Poison chuckled and turned his gaze towards Illusion, that cat tha had made him look like a coward. Well, Oath wasn't scared of her, so let her fight her. Poison opened his mouth to let in the scents of th kits in, and then slipped over to the base of the tree they were hiding in.

Suddenly Illusions fur imploded, bursting outward like her small form could no longer hold it back. The transformation took a split second, but it was enough to terrify even Greyice. For one, Illusion was in control of the ghost panther's body, her violet eyes burning holes into Poison. It was impossible to hit Illusion when she was in this form, not unless you found the right spot. You see, her 'Ghost' played on the fear of bigger things embedded deep in every cat. It only worked if the other cat believed it to be real. Illusion could really produce anything she wanted anyone to see, control the minds and sight if any cat. But she hadn't figured that part out yet. If they believed she hadn't changed, if they saw through her illusion, then they would see the truth but otherwise, the wounds inflicted by the 'Ghost panther' were quite real indeed. This she used to it's fullest extent as her fur poofed outward and a earth-shaking roar echoed from her suddenly great maw. Her eyes were burning with uncontrolled raged, an untamed fire that great outweighed even Foxfire's uncontrolled blazing wildfire. Her great claws sank into the ground and her earth-shaking roar slowed to a terrfying rumble. "Answer me carefully, kit. Do you truely wish to defy me?!"
Greyice struggled against Oath's hold on his throat. He knew the wrong move would let her get the upper hand. Finally, he ripped himself away just in time to see Illusion's terrifying transformation. But something felt wrong. As sono as he wondered how it could be real, as soon as he doubted his sight then it flickered, he saw the real Illusiuon for a brief second and smiled to himself. Then he turned to Lex. His lips curled back in a hiss. "Shall I skin you alive myself or would you rather be beaten by my sister?" He asked.....

Rookpaw glanced down, the base of the tree hidden from viewby thick pine needle. "Alright." He whispered looking down. "Ive ome to get you back to the camp safely, then i will come back here and help. My friend Moss is on her way already." He said softly. "The faster we leave the faster i can come back and help but its time you went home to your mother she is terribly worried. Wait till the rest of the clan hears about this though Stonekit your some kind of hero." He said smiling down at the kits. "No objections." he whispered casting bluekit a pointed glance. "we are leaving now. i hope you all don't mind flying, but if you'd rather I could carry you in my mouth." He said quietly looking down at the unfolding battle.
Oath looked at the two cats as they did their work and smiled. Bloodclan was strong, these cats were weak. Her eyes scanned the clearing in her momentary break, landing on poison. "Coward, to chicken to fight? Ill rip your insides out and we'll see wether or not you have any guts later." She called tauntingly. Before her eyes turned to watch the transformation. How could he be so scared? Pah, what a chicken to fear death. Death was the maker, and Death was the guiding assurance that everything eventually came to an end. She refused to fear something for size alone, that was pointless. There was nothing to fear because there was nothing there. illusion she called herself, illusion she was. A fake who relied on others fear of large and hulking predators to win. Nothing more. She blinked as the form in front of her faltered at this thought. This was an accident of course but oath grinned, teeth showing as she looked closer at Illusion. illusion, why was she called that? Did she like those other strange cats hold some power? In oaths mind, if this truely was a power it was a rather pathetic one for being seen through. Merely Mirages. She remained, for now without challenge, her eyes were on greyice's back hough waiting till he became over-occupied with Lex. Then it would be an easy matter to kill him.
Moss indeed was on her way, but she had a ways t come, the air currents that had suddenly been howling trough her resting place of the night could only be from Rook. He required assistance, and she was inclined to give her half-brother that assistance.
