This is War! MC/TC Plot (Tagged)

[CaℳI]

OOC: Lightningtrail and Stormsy - Beginning of MC/TC plot. Dovefeather will talk to your two cats first. You may have them be hanging out wherever you wish (with each other, near each other- might help) Sorry it's formatted weird. Word always does that to me.

IC:Dovefeather had spent the past moon scheming as she often liked to do. Even though drama
was in every fur of her being, it was never enough for the mischievous cat. She
could never get enough. Unfortunately, nobody knew how much destruction would
lie in her immediate future. Not even Dovefeather herself was consciously aware
of the bane and havoc that would lay in her wake as she moved through the next
moon or so with her band of cats that shared some pretty morbid or just uneducated
beliefs.



The black and orange cat shut her eyes for a moment, contemplating an idea that
she had been working on for some amount of time now. Those bumbling idiots
up there on that mountain. They don’t even have the right to call themselves a
clan. She opened her eyes, frowning towards an innocent single pine that
was at the edge of her sightline. She squinted her eyes in a fierce moment of
anger towards nobody in particular. And Pebblestar. She’s barely a leader.
Had Starclan lost their mind to call upon her?



That’s just like you Dovefeather. Never enough drama, right? Never enough
adventure, huh?



The she-cat sighed, looking around for a moment. She was a young, beautiful
she-cat with sass that could intrigue, words that could sting like the fangs of
a snake, and looks that could kill. Yet she wasn’t content. Not in the least.
It seemed that little relentless Dovefeather had been looking for something to
spice up her life. The times were changing, she felt like it was now or never.
She sat quietly compiling a list of cats that, in her mind, would agree with
her without too much question.



You can lie, dear. You’re good at that, aren’t you? Why, wasn’t it just the
other day that you lied to Moonpelt? Where exactly are you going to find kits?
Is Starclan going to magically beam down from the golden skies and implant kits
inside of you? No. No they are not. You better figure that one out. It won’t be
long before he find out you aren’t pregnant at all. You’re just a lying,
manipulative, attention seeking, -.



Dovefeather smiled, it looked like she might let out a small laugh. but she
didn’t. She kept it to herself. She put her nose up in the air, flipped her
tail about, stood up and padded off with an exterior  that did little but shout ‘I’m better then
you’



She was off to mix things up with some drama that would shake up not only
Dovefeather’s life, but the history of the clans for moons to come.



Her little list of helpers floated through her twisted head.



Badgerpelt. All I have to do is mention his mishap with that Stormclan brat
and he’ll do as I want him to. His goal is to be loyal. Oh Badgerpelt!
Bramblestar would be oh so proud of you for dismantling Talonclan. You’ll go
down is history as a strong and LOYAL warrior. That is what you want?
Right?



Badgerpelt wouldn’t be hard to get on her side, or at least she didn’t think he
would be. She knew how to twist the truth perfectly into what he would want to
hear.



Silvershine. I should see him too. Maybe I can find him somewhere around the
territory today. He has a hatred…for…well everyone, right? Or at least all the
other clans. He knows that Talonclan stole our clanmates to join that kittypet
infested rat hole they call home! He’ll ban together with me and the others, I
just need to talk him into it.



She didn’t know Silvershine well, but he seemed like her kind of cat. She
swiftly decided she would hunt Badgerpelt and Silvershine down first before
continuing with her list. They would be strong toms and might help her to
convince the others of her sick plan.

((Actually, Silvershine is a she-cat. c: And, Stormsy, I hope that you are ok with having Silvershine and Badgerpelt be hunting together. If you want me to change it, I certainly can. ouo

Silvershine crouched low to the ground, her light colored pelt hidden by the bright green patches of leaves and underbrush. Her darker ears gave a flick as she closed in on the vole. The small creature rustled in the dead leaves, it's soft, brown body shuffling through the leaves in search of food. The same thing that the grey cat was searching for. She slowly and carefully neared the small animal, her forest colored eyes focused on the vole and it alone. She bunched up her muscles, and, without anymore hesitation, leapt at the prey. The vole did not even have time to squeal in pain from the talon-like claws that dug into it's spine before it perished. 

The she-cat grabbed up the prey in her jaws, holding it tightly as she backed away from the scene. After escaping the small bramble patch that she had made her way into, she whipped back around and trotted off to find her hunting partner. The massive oaks and leafy underbrush proclaimed that it was Green-leaf, and prey was abundant and fat. but the smaller she-cat still carried the vole with pride, her chest puffed out and her head held high. Even if it had not been the largest vole in the woods, it would still make a decent meal. "Hey, Badgerpelt!" She called out. "Catch anything yet?" Hope not, then I can brag about my catch, She thought deviously.

OOC: Of course that's fine, Lightning ^^ I was thinking of something along the same lines.

<< Badgerpelt >>
The large black and white tom sighed, padding around the territory in search of prey. He had indeed caught something -- though it would barely be a mouthful for the smallest of cats. The mouse hanging from his jaws was thin and Badgerpelt was sure the meat would be tough and stringy. No one will want to eat this. but prey is prey, I suppose, he thought. This is no kind of greenleaf prey.

Badgerpelt sighed again, wondering why he was so off his game. I'll never be able to prove myself to this Clan if this is all I can get! he added to himself. The tom's ears perked up when he heard the call of his hunting companion. He spotted Silvershine walking through the territory near him and he walked out to meet her. "Barely," he grunted, dropping the slim creature onto the ground before her. "I must be having an off day or something," he added, trying to excuse his poor catch.

[CaℳI]

OOC: -_- Ugh. I'm so sorry lightning. Lol. I dunno why I turned her into a tom. xD

IC:

Dovefeather padded, her plan fresh in her mind after all the time spent alone thinking she had done lately. Would this ever even work? It didn't really matter, Dovefeather had always been the type of cat that if she wanted something- she better get it. One way or another.

Her eyes glistened with renew determination as she saw Badgerpelt and Silvershine striking up a conversation just a few tail lengths away. What are the chances?! It must be fate. She mentally rolled her eyes, not believing in fate in the least. She padded over, deciding she would start things up with a simple conversation.

"Hey, friends." She said sweetly, with a soft smile on her face. It was always best to act friendly to those who you were counting on. She had figured this much out at least. Both of these cats would be strong additions to her group. Silvershine was a strong she-cat as Dovefeather herself was, and Badgerpelt was a fierce tom. She thought she could sount on these two.

Her paws stopped at the fellow cats' sides. "Any interesting catches today? Greenleaf has been plentiful for our clan."

Silvershine smirked, and pretended to try to hide it. but she did not actually want to hide it, she wanted to flaunt her laughter at the tom's puny catch. A bit ago, she had been hoping that he had caught nothing, but this was better. "It looks like an elder in leafbare!" She giggled,"Oh, I mean, I am sure that someone would enjoy it," She corrected herself. The she-cat dropped her own vole next to Badgerpelt's skinny mouse. The once small vole became fat in comparison. "Prey is prey, right?" She joked. This is hardly greenleaf prey.

Silvershine heard a voice, and turned her head to see Dovefeather approaching. Was it even possible to become friends with someone without hardly ever talking to them? I guess so. "Hey, Dovefeather," Silvershine greeted, her tail held high in a friendly hello. Silvershine took a couple inconspicuous steps to the right and sat, carefully shielding the measly prey from Dovefeather's sight. "Yeah, prey is running just fine," She mewed. Silvershine could lie through her teeth with ease, and it was certainly something she prided herself on. "I already buried some prey a bit ago," She explained, partially to Dovefeather and partially to Badgerpelt. Her tail poked his thigh as a reminder. He better not rat her out. It would be embarrassing to let Dovefeather know how poorly they had hunted, and one, little white lie couldn't hurt anyone, right?

<< Badgerpelt >>
Badgerpelt let out an annoyed grunt. He wanted to whip around and go catch something else, but he didn't want to let the she-cat in front of him know that she had gotten to him. So, he shrugged it off and meowed, "I'll go out again later, maybe I'll have better luck." He twitched his tail at the comparison of the prey and sighed, as he had done multiple times today already. This is no good, he added in an afterthought. Then he decided, why not join in the jokes? "The kits back at camp will be happy to know I've brought them a toy to play with, at least," he purred, bumping Silvershine with his shoulder.

The large tom turned his gaze to where the new she-cat was walking towards them. Dovefeather. I've spoken to her a few times, though she seems kind of shady. However, despite his thoughts, Badgerpelt put on a friendly grin and meowed out, "Hello, Dovefeather." The black and white cat tilted his head just slightly, but soon understood why Silvershine was lying. He looked down to his paws, feeling worse about himself that he had to be lied for. "Yeah, it's going great. Anyway, did you need us for something?"

[CaℳI]

Dovefeather smiled kindly towards Silvershine as she joked. Her ears ringing at Badgerpelt's question. How would she address what she needed? She wanted to pick her words carefully, not trying to scare away either of her clanmates. Plus she really didn't want her entire carefully laid plan to be spoiled. It was obvious that Badgerpelt knew that Dovefeather wasn't going to just approach them to ask about prey. Unless she wanted to flirt, stir up some lies and cause drama, or use you- she really wasn't up for chitchatting all day. She much rather be battling some loner or convincing some poor innocent tom to cheat on his mate. She definitely had some of her own demons she needed to deal with, but she was just so unwilling to do that.

She decided to put it all out there, even though her words were careful and very well planned, "I have a proposition for you two." A slight grin came across her face. She was obviously up to something. "I'm sure you're both aware of how Talonclan has stolen much from us. They convinced our friends and family to join a clan meant for kittypets...barely a clan really." She spoke casually as she glanced over her shoulder, licking her paw all innocent like. "Bramblestar would be awful proud of us if we could get our clanmates back, don't you think Badgerpelt?" She directed her yellow eyes towards him. She knew of his disloyalty to Midnightclan. This tom definitely had something to prove.

She looked back towards the pretty she-cat in front of her, Silvershine would be easier to convince. She thought of it a lot like Dovefeather did. "So to be straight forward, I'm getting a secret group of cats together and taking a nice little stroll up to Talonclan. We're going to ambush Pebblestar, take her, and convince her to release the clan and dismantle her title of leader." She pouted her lips out, in her normal diva form. She might have sounded crazy for all she knew, but if these cats wanted to get something done- then she was a good cat to pair up with. "They're stealing our prey by keeping cats that are Midnightclan born and raised. They're stealing dignity from all the clans for even declaring that they are anything like us. We all know it isn't fair. Bramblestar obviously wants to do something about it but he won't put it together himself. I think if we do it on our own, he'll be awfully proud if we can pull it off." That part was more so a lie. Dovefeather could have given a rat's tail about what Bramblestar thought. Unless he wanted to flirt with her, she could have seriously cared less about him.

((Sorry for the delay, I am on vacation currently and have limited wifi. ^^'))

Silvershine's ears perked up as she heard Dovefeather speak of a proposition. It must have been something kind of shady for this she-cat to seek help from cats she hardly knew, but those were the best propositions. The kind where the path was difficult and risky, but, in the end, everything had been more than worth it. It would have been easy for a cat to turn down joining a plot such as that, and Silvershine just felt proud that she had built up enough of a reputation for Dovefeather to come to her for help.

Silvershine nodded as the she-cat spoke of TalonClan, unleashing her sharp words upon them like talons. Boy, if they were here, they would be already hissing defiant responses. but it was not that Silvershine thought that these words were false, no, she believed and agreed with every word that spilled out of Dovefeather's mouth. Silvershine smirked and glanced at Badgerpelt, remembering his little fling with that StormClan wench. Why he would choose a defective StormClanner, she did not know, and she did not care. She just admired how Dovefeather seemed so capable of working him like mud.

Silvershine nodded again. She agreed that TalonClan scum hardly deserved to be in their safe little home in the mountains, where they probably lived as kittypets with twoleg mush shoved gleefully down their throat instead of real food. Silvershine had thought that this had been a plan to catch her attention to an interesting plot, but she had never expected that Dovefeather wanted to capture the leader. Oh, wouldn't that mouse-brained deputy be surprised! She was already looking forward to the gathering where he would admit that he had lost his leader like a mother looses a weak, stupid kitten. but Silvershine refused to play right into Dovefeather's paws, she would at least try to be a little hard to get.

"Dovefeather...I don't know," Silvershine mewed,"Isn't this kind of risky? What happens if we stroll over there only to find a sharp-clawed patrol instead of Pebblestar? And have you thought that Pebblestar, being a leader with 7 plus lived under her pelt, could take on us three? Oh, never-mind, I am sure that you asked some others. Who else is going?" Silvershine inquired. Not that she really cared, she was in even if it was just going to be Dovefeather and herself. She glanced at Badgerpelt, wondering how he was reacting to this proposition.

<< Badgerpelt >>
He couldn't help but be interested right away. TalonClan was never really part of the Clans in his mind as well -- especially because they lived so far but still caused so much damage from the little things they did. The black and white tom's ears flattened just slightly and he tried to keep a neutral expression even with the somewhat smug glance from Silvershine. He didn't want to admit that the words pierced him much and so, Badgerpelt stuck to a nod. When the plan was revealed, the light in the tom's eyes could not be disguised. Taking their leader would be a fair share for the cats they have taken from rightful warrior lives. As long as the execution goes well, the plan should work great, from how Dovefeather is explaining it.

However, he didn't want to be a desperate cat either. And maybe, just maybe, he should think something out before jumping right into it. Thinking like that could have saved me a whole lot of trouble... Badgerpelt added to himself. He listened to Silvershine speak and nodded. "Strong cats, I should hope. Walking into their territory -- and the whole journey alone -- would take some strength and stamina," he stated in his deep tone. His eyes were still blazing with the fire of excitement. Adventure, loyalty, pride -- all the things I could have be completing this. If it goes wrong, why should that matter? It can't possibly get too much worse, for trying to help the Clan.

"I have your back, however, if we have an acceptable patrol."
