"EVERYCAT! WAKE UP!" Scourge yowled, a she-cat scurried towards him, her coat as black as night, "Wh-what's going on?" She asked with a shaky voice, "What's happening?" Scourge looked down at her, "--Retreat into the rainforest", The voice echoed inside his head. Shaking his head, Scourge nudged the cat towards the other clans' dens, "Wake everybody up!" He hissed, "tell them to run to the rainforest that's due a few days north", "B-but why-" Scourge growled to silence the cat, "Do as I say... Now" she nodded franctically and zipped away. Firestar emerged from the Thunderclan den and walked over to Scourge, "Why are we going to the Rainforest?" He looked at the Bloodclan leader, "some Starclan cat sent me a vision, that the Dark Forest cats are going to attack" Scourge explained, "we mustn't linger here any longer, take Riverclan and Windclan with you, I need to hunt a few prey with my clan for the trip" Firestar hesitantly nodded and stalked away.

After Bloodclan had hunted, they started journeying towards the other clans, "They should be a few days walk from now" Scourge said, picking up his pace. A grey tom with amber eyes ran up to Scourge, "Why are we going to the Rainforest?" He asked hesitantly, "A cat told me that the Dark Forest cats would invade our camp in a few days, and hey..." The leader trailed off, shaking his head and staring ahead of him, "Better safe than sorry am I right?" The grey tom nodded slowly, opening his jaws to say something, but the other clans came into view. Gearkit and Wirekit stumbled towards Scourge, "helloo!" Gearkit mewed, "Dad why are we going to a forrainst?" Wirekit chipped in, "Evil cats are coming and we need to get to a safe place" Scourge replied, licking the kits forehead, "for now we should get some rest, tomorrow we will be traveling to the rainforest without stops"..

Later that morning, the clans had eaten their meal and are now a days travel to the Rainforest. "Crow-" Scourge was cut off by a head rumble that shook the ground beneath his paws, Gearkit wailed in response as Wirekit tried to calm him down. Tallstar directed his head to the twoleg dens, a huge mushroom-like grey and black ash cloud emerged from the Bloodclan camp, "What's that?" Mistystar shook in fear, "That's a smoke cloud!" Scourge yowled, "Everyone run! Run run!, The rainforest is just up ahead go!" The clan cats thundered across the field and slipped into the thick dense bush, Sandstorm swooped up the kits and followed the rest of the cats. Scourge was the last to slip under the leaves, just as a brown tabby cat shot out of the smoke cloud. From the distance, he looked like an ant, but that didn't stop the tabby's voice to ring out into the sky, "WHERE ARE YOU SCOURGE!?" It screamed into the air, "Is that cat a mouse-brain?" Scourge heard Ravenpaw [yay I added Ravenpaw in here (1)] mutter behind him, "Nah, that cat's Tigerstar" Scourge whispered, "oh... Well who is that white cat in the air with him?" The purple-eyed cat nudged the Bloodclan leader, "That's..." Scourge's eyes widen in realisation, "That dirty-double-crosser!, That's BlackStar!" He growled, "Heh, that explains why he wasn't with us" Brick mumbled, "No time to talk, we need to get moving and up the trees" Firestar interrupted, "and once you're up in the trees get leaves and branches to build some facade to protect us from the harsh weather's and to keep us safe" Mistystar mewed, already climbing up one of the trunks. The cats diapersed, climbing trees closest to the clan next to them.

Scourge pushes the thick leaves out of his face and emerged from the undergrowth, his jaws piled with sticks and leaves. He clawed up the trunk of one of the trees and dropped his supplies in a bunch. "I see the clans have been working hard" Scourge admitted, looking and the carefully knitted floor, made of strong sticks and covered with a layer of soft grass, below him, "Indeed, they have" Brick agreed, "Indeed they have" Scourge heard Longtail mimick in a kits voice, the female warrior flicked her tail in annoyance, "aside that, should we started building pathways to the other trees, a- disguised as a long branch that connects?" Scourge nodded, "That would do well, especially if there are predators trying to get us from the ground, inform the other leaders immediately" Brick hopped down the hole and slid to the ground. Crow appeared a few second later, "Scourge, the hunting parties have returned with more fresh-kill" she announced, "great, tell them to share the catch with the clans" [oh my I almost wrote Clams xD], in a tail twitch, the grey cat was gone. Guess I should check on Wirekit and Gearkit, Scourge sighed and climbed to a higher trunk, which has an empty hollow in the top for the kits. He peered in at the two kits, who were sleeping soundly. "At least their ok" Scourge meowed aloud, jumping to the highest peak, the top of the tree was flat in the middle, it was fairly-sized and was camouflaged with the thick layer of leaves that rested above.

The leader layed down and closed his ice blue eyes, yawning before falling asleep.
