Dogs
History

Dovepaw hears the dogs and tells Lionblaze. He asks if they are in the forest and Dovepaw replies they are in WindClan. Lionblaze isn't concerned as Twolegs usually use dogs with sheep there. Dovepaw urgently explains they are not chasing sheep, but cats. Lionblaze insists they will be fine but Dovepaw senses one of the dogs catch up to Sedgewhisker and bite her. She then senses WindClan cats attack the dog. Lionblaze doesn't believe they need to see Sedgewhisker as she is safe, but Dovepaw goes to WindClan camp to see her. She admits she heard a dog chasing her. Ivypaw, who came with her, is alarmed, saying she did not tell her about any dogs. Weaselfur catches the four cats and asks Sedgewhisker if she has caused enough trouble by getting her patrol chased by the dog. The whole of WindClan is alerted to the ThunderClan apprentices' prescence and Sedgewhisker explains to them that they knew about the dog that chased her patrol. She is adamant they could handle it. Dovepaw feels angry and sad, blaming her powers for her sensing the dog attack Sedgewhisker.

Back at ThunderClan camp, Dovepaw confesses to Firestar that she heard a dog on WindClan. Firestar doesn't believe her, asking what the nonsense she is saying about hearing the dog. Firestar interrogates Dovepaw, Lionblaze and Jayfeather, asking Dovepaw how she knew about the dog and asking Jayfeather if StarClan sent a dream or sign about the dog. Jayfeather denies so Firestar asks Dovepaw if she dreamed of the dog. Dovepaw insists she heard the dog, of which the leader asks Lionblaze if he heard the dog as he was tree training with Dovepaw at the time she heard it. Lionblaze confesses he was on the ground and there was a breeze, so he could not have heard it. Firestar concludes only Dovepaw knew about the dog then. Later, during a Gathering, Dovepaw tells Tigerheart that Sedgewhisker was bitten by a dog.

Sedgewhisker's patrol
History

Dovepaw tells Lionblaze how she senses dogs chasing cats. She insists they must help them but Lionblaze reassures WindClan are used to dogs. He reminds her they can outrun rabbits if they wish so they'll be fine. Dovepaw realises Sedgewhisker is with the patrol and is attacked by a dog. Lionblaze asks where her Clanmates are and Dovepaw says they are with her and are attacking the dog. Later, Lionblaze is relieved a hunting patrol going to the WindClan border as if the patrol is really in trouble, they can help if they choose to.

That night, Dovepaw remembers seeing the patrol support Sedgewhisker back to their camp. She goes to WindClan camp with Ivypaw out of worry and Weaselfur catches the three together. He asks Sedgewhisker if she hasn't caused enough trouble, getting her patrol caught by the dog. Sedgewhisker insists her patrol wasn't hurt, only she was. Sedgewhisker tells her Clan that Dovepaw knew the dog chased her patrol but insists it wasn't anything they couldn't handle. Heathertail asks Dovepaw how she knew their patrol was being chased. Dovepaw lies she guessed, and no cat believed her.

Grumbling WindClan elder
History

As Tigerheart and Dovepaw secretly talk during a Gathering, the elder rustles a bramble bush and alerts them. He gives an old mew that croaks with irritation, complaining about the bramble's prickles. He calls the 'blasted prickles'. Dovepaw smells his WindClan scent and guesses he is an elder looking for somewhere quiet to make dirt. She calls over to the elder, saying it is quiet over to a different spot. The elder drags himself out of the bramble bush, complaining about Dovepaw only telling him now after going through the bush. He describes the experience as shredding his ears and ripping half his pelt off and leaving in in the bush, describing it as a 'fox-toothed bush'. Dovepaw twitches her whiskers in amusement of the elder's rambling.

Wiry brown tom
History

Darkstripe is lecturing the warriors among trees and beyond water, half-shrouded in mist. He instructs them to always go for the throat before demonstrating on the wiry tom. He grabs him, hooking claws into his fur and throwing him to the ground. The brown tom helplessly struggles as Darkstripe slices at his throat, blood rising in the cut. Hawkfrost knocks Darkstripe away from the brown tom, grabbing him then shoving him to the other Dark Forest cats. The brown tom shakes himself then grooms his wound. Hawkfrost snaps for him to worry about his fur later, and the tom stops midlick, staring at the cat with round eyes. Hawkfrost hisses at him he wanted to learn killing techniques, then he should stop acting like a scared kit and pay attention. Jayfeather is shocked at the brutality, but Spottedleaf explains they have always lived outside the warrior code. They were always rogues within their own Clans, and are rogues now. She believes they never deserved to be called warriors.

ShadowClan warriors
History

During the battle for the clearing between ShadowClan and ThunderClan, the ShadowClan warriors are pounding to the pines and thundering over the grass, spitting with rage as Lionblaze faces to attack them. The ThunderClan cats are in the trees, poised to drop on the fast-approaching warriors. Lead by Blackstar, they stream through the trees, skidding to a halt beside him, The ThunderClan cats then begin diving onto the ShadowClan warriors. More warriors stream through the trees, faces twisted in outrage and ywols edged with fury before spinning in suprise. They give bewildered yowls as they are attacked by the ThunderClan cats.
