*Running with the Flood* A Warrior Cat RP~Open~

Nightbird glanced at Rosesky, slightly confused. I’m the leader of this patrol, can’t she just back off a bit? She twitched an ear. Chill, Nightbird. She told herself, leaning down to sniff at the forest floor. The fox scent was getting stronger. “Be alert, these fox kits could be itching for cats to chew on. We don’t know how old they are.” She said firmly, sniffing the air and feeling a bit proud of herself for her leadership so far. Personally, she liked the idea of clawing some fox tails, but she knew it might not be necessary.
"Agreed. But there is no reason to harm newborns, right?" She asked in exasperation, twitching an ear at Blackblood.
"Am I being a little controlling? I guess...But Blackblood is being evil! Can't she see he is planning on killing any fox kits we find?!"
She sighed. Nightbird was the leader, so she could tell Blackblood off. "Hrrrmph."
 
"Agreed. But there is no reason to harm newborns, right?" She asked in exasperation, twitching an ear at Blackblood.
Nightbird cocked her head. “I don’t know, I’ve heard those things have pretty sharp teeth.” She mused. She grinned a bit at her own joke, hoping Rosesky wouldn’t think she was being serious.

Blackbloods tail twitched slightly in annoyance. "Nightbird is the patrol leader here. She decides if we have to attack or not." He pointed out in a neutral voice. He sidled up beside her and decided to ignore the others for the rest of the patrol
 
Nightbird cocked her head. “I don’t know, I’ve heard those things have pretty sharp teeth.” She mused. She grinned a bit at her own joke, hoping Rosesky wouldn’t think she was being serious.
"Very funny. But seriously, if they are young, they can do no harm to us. We'd be killing helpless kits for the fun of it. And that is not a good reason."
She synchronized paces with Nightbird. "Sorry if I'm coming across as kind of strong...It's just, well...when I was a kit, before I was hunting anything, there was a nest of baby birds behind the nursery. Every day I would watch the mother loyally feed the chicks, and watched them grow. Then a few other kits found the nest, and killed every single baby. I had really cared about those chicks. Now, if I had found them as a warrior, if I had come across those chicks, I probably wouldn't care about them. I'd leave them be, out of respect for the forest, but I wouldn't care. But..I was a kit, and after watching the bigger kits kill the chicks, I vowed I would never kill anything that couldn't fend for itself, and I wouldn't kill anything out of sport." She said.

“I’m not going to kill the newborn foxes.” Nightbird said. That scolding wasn’t really necessary. She internally grumbled, but the only sign of her displeasure was a slight twitch of her tail. She wished that her patrol would just keep quiet so she could adequately listen for danger.

Frosty walked in Prairiepaw’s direction, not making eye contact. When he got close enough, he suddenly swung his head around to stare at her. “Hey, what’s a fox patrol?”

Blackblood kept his ears pricked and his jaws open for fox-scent. When he smelled the den, he whispered to Nightbird "The den is over there. I can smell it."

Rosesky peered into the dusty hole in the ground. She narrowed her eyes and...
"Those kits are not small! Or that's the mom...nope. There are three! They are bigger than us." She reported to Nightbird. "They must be learning to hunt..there are prey carcasses strewn around. They are torturing a rabbit right now.." She said with disgust.

Blackblood narrowed his eyes slightly. Nightbird didn't give the order for them to look in the den yet. Yes, he didn't follow the rules a lot, but he still gave a little respect toward the patrol leader. He shook his head a little, clearing his thoughts. He flexed his claws in and out, waiting for the order to attack. His eyes shone in excitement. He hadn't been able to go into battle for a while now.

Rosesky stepped away from the den. "Nighbird, should we try to flush them out of the den? I would say we not kill them, just send them packing with a few scratches, but it's your call."
She picked at the dirt between her claws nervously.
(see,here she is restraining her inner control freak, XD)

Nettlespeck nodded in agreement. Rosesky was being a bit annoying, and controlling, but she had a point. They would be no better than foxes if they were killing kits that didn't have the skills to fend for themselves. But if the kits attacked them, and the kits were able to hurt them, he was ready to kill in self defense. He hoped it wouldn't come to that. His tail twitched in the suspense of the moment.
