(There is the beginning of a greencough outbreak. First, Iriswhisker gets sick, and as she starts to recover, blames her illness on the foul prey of ShadowClan. Others can get sick, SHadowClan can get angry, let's stir things up!)
Iriswhisker was eating a slightly stale mouse, her dark pelt fluffed up against the cold. As she bent her head to take another bite, she jerked, as a bout of coughing took over her.
Riverpaw winced as he padded past, two warm-bodied birds in his mouth. He set them down and looked at the black warrior. "That doesn't sound good. I thought you went to see Owlpetal."
"I did," rasped Iriswhisker. "She said I was starting to recover. She mewed something about the cold weather and lack of prey being the cause of sickness, but if you ask me, it's that no good ShadowClan prey. Eating slimy frogs and scaly snakes and lizards can't be good for a cat. I bet the sickness came from that."
"So you ate a frog?" mewed Riverpaw, whiskers twitching. "How was it?"
"No, I didn't eat it!" argued Iriswhisker. "But it all mixes together on the fresh-kill pile, their foul prey mixing with ours."

BrightStar came towards IrisWhisker, and RiverPaw. "Em hm. Things have been a bit different since the divide. Perhaps we should just keep to our own grounds for a while." BrightStar suggested. RhineHeart looked up from were he was eating. "No! We can't! there is already prey dwindling, we can't take that risk, Brightstar!" BrightStar shot him an icy gaze.

Greengaze heard Iriswhisker's coughing from where she was munching on a stringy vole, and took a look at her prey and the place where she'd found it on the fresh-kill pile. Sure enough, it had been lying on top of a slimy frog. She pushed it a bit away from her, not sure if she could eat the rest. Her brother, Indigoblaze, padded towards her, sitting down. "Are you going to eat that?" His eyes were expectant; he hadn't eaten all day, and normally he'd be shier, but this was his sister. The black she-cat shook her head wordlessly, and watched with disgust as her younger brother began to devour the rest of the prey. "I can't believe you eat that," she commented. "When it's been on top of a frog. I can't believe you eat those, either." Indigoblaze shrugged. "I eat them all the time. There's nothing wrong with them." His sister snorted. "Maybe for your filthy ShadowClan stomach. I'm ThunderClan, and I can't stomach it." Indigoblaze frowned, and tentatively put forward, "We're both WindClan, Greengaze. Our stomachs are the same." Greengaze barked a short laugh and stood up. "Not anymore, brother. Not anymore." She padded away to take a nap in the warriors' den.

Blackmoon padded past GreenGaze out of the warriors den, and gave her a smiled, and a friendly "Hello." , but she walked past her to fast to get a reply. MarsKit came running up to the fresh kill pile, and when she got there she was face to face with a still alive frog. "Ribbit." she said trying to communicate. NeptuneKit came up after her. "Stupid mouse brain! It can't understand you!" SaturnKit rolled her eyes as she squashed the frog with her paw. "There. Now it's can't understand all your babbling. I put it out of it's misery." she said annoyed. EarthKit looked out from her hiding place but came out with no surprise at all, and stared at the lifeless frog, and picked it up in her jaws, and ate it. "How repulsive!"Mars hissed in disgust.

Iriswhisker followed Greengaze, looking pleased. Maybe she would talk to her later, they seemed to have a lot in common.
Lakefrost padded into camp during all the emotion. He dropped a toad and a robin and Iriswhisker growled at him, "You can take that back out and bury it."
The white tom looked confused. "Why? It's fresh, I just caught it!"
"ShadowClan prey is causing a sickness to go around. I got it already," she finished with a cough.
Lakefrost snorted. "That's ridiculous. ShadowClan has been eating this stuff for generations. It's cold out and there's litttle prey, cats are bound to get sick. You should be happy to eat at all!"
Iriswhisker jumped to her paws, violet eyes blazing, fur bristling. "Don't talk to me like a mouse-brained apprentice!"
"Then stop acting like one. It's not the prey," Lakefrost retorted, blue eyes narrowed into a glare. Iriswhisker looked ready to pounce...
"We just can't split up again!" whispered Riverpaw, hazel eyes wide. "Then ShadowClan and RiverClan leaving would be pointless..."

Brightstar battered her tale on the ground. "Irishwhisker! I will have no fighting in my clan!" she hissed at the in pounce posion she-cat. Rhineheart shook his head as he pdded up to the fresh kill pile.. This was not good, not good at all.

Iriswhisker took a step back and dipped her head to her leader. However, her eyes still blazed with hostility. "Just watch! If more cats get sick and die, don't say I didn't warn you! ShadowClan and ThunderClan are too different! We can never be one!"
Riverpaw stared at her, wounded. "How can you say that? You of all cats? You're like a mother to me."
Iriswhisker gave him a hard stare. "What are you trying to say?"
"I'm half RiverClan and half ShadowClan. Two Clans' run in my blood, but I'm loyal to ThunderClan aren't I? Why can't this work? We all have one thing in common: loyalty to the warrior code."
Iriswhisker's eyes softened and she opened her jaws to reply, but Lakefrost cut her off. "She's right, Riverpaw. We're just too different. It's been broken more than once. The warrior code means nothing to these cats anymore. I tried to follow it, but what's the point if it's dead everywhere else?" His eyes were icy, and Iriswhisker spat at him. However, he had a point there. The warrior code was were it led up to.

BrightStar gulped hard. This was going down hill, and thew the woods, and than in to the river. MarsKit huddled ageist her mother's legs in a sad attempt to get warm.BrightStar looked down at the little ex-rouge kit. What favor had she brought to he? sickness, and a food shortage? "All cats that are well come with me. Were going hunting. Nobody needs to guard the camp I highly doubt WindClan is going to try any thing. any objections?" she said blankly.
(this could be a fight seen if you want rainy. WindClan could try, and steal food.)

(hmm didn't think of that. We could do that. Not only are the clans fighting within themselves, they start fighting each other. Hmmm I don't want Briarstar to be the theif type... but... what is former riverclan warriors starting stealing prey. It's Stoatstep, to stir up rivalries hoping to rip WindClan in half or something.)
Iriswhisker looked away, eyes flashing, dissappointed and angry that she was being left behind. Lakefrost stalked out of camp to wait outside the gorse tunnel, and Riverpaw glanced at Brightstar, his tail tip twitching uneasily.

Greengaze stalked haughtily out of camp to go stand near the others. Indigoblaze followed, taking the remains of his mouse to go bury them before hunting. When finished, he made sure he wasn't anywhere near Greengaze.

BrightStar thought for a moment. "I suppose we should go explore the terriotry some more. We've been hunting in the same places for to many moons, even the febel minded mice have wised up to our hunting grounds." RhineHeart, Littleseed, DappleFoot, and Sunset all loked at each other. Blackmoon sneezed. BrightStar twiched her tail, than turned to the forest. "Let's get going." she ordered. *all my kitties fallow her.*

The corners of Riverpaw's twitched. He thought that was Brightstar making a joke... but wasn't so sure suddenly. He followed his mentor and the rest of the patrol. He enjoyed a good hunting. He was slightly better at hunting than fighting, but still, he was a swift and powerful opponent.

Sparrowpaw looked around the dense undergrowth. Her ears repetivly went back, and forth, and her eyes were open as wide as cat possibile. whe she heard a slight distrbance in the leaves she imeditly pounced : Catching a mouse. BrightStar nodded to her.

"Nice catch," whispered Riverpaw, glancing nervously at Brightstar as if scared she might scold him for talking. "First one out of all of us!"
