"Dimstar?"
"Come in," The grey furred leader replied, rising to his paws as Vulturetalon entered his den. The leader of NightClan flicked his ears as he waited for the tom to speak.
"Dimstar, while I was on a patrol with Sootfeather and Gloompaw, we found Demon tracks. Gloompaw noticed his scent as well," The tom-cat finished with a flustered look down to his paws. Dimstar nodded before he walked past the tom and headed toward the camp entrance.
"Show me where you found the prints," Dimstar told the younger warrior, Vulturetalon bolted after his leader and took a slight look of uneasiness in his eyes. The two of them walked in silence to the TreeClan border. Vulturetalon pointed to a few markings on the ground, Dimstar studied them with mild curiosity. There were much larger than any cat's paws and it was logical to assume that Demon was in fact a massive creature. "Go back to camp and inform Pinewhisker, I'm going to see where the tracks lead. Perhaps Demon has already left our territory." Dimstar told him before dismissing the tom with a controlled flick of his tail. Vulturetalon nodded before turning tail and running back to camp.

Dimstar continued on. Walking and scenting the air for any sign of Demon. Low growing bushes had broken limbs and even larger pawprints were notice the swamper the territory got. It seemed that Demon was not used to talk on such soft ground, an advantage for a leader to sneak up on him to determine the threat level. If Demon was just prowling then Dimstar would have to warn his clanmates, if he was actively hunting, he'd be a much larger threat.
Treading carefully as the scent of Demon got thicker, Dimstar paused when he sensed something wasn't right. Turning to study his surroundings he realized too late that he had made a grave mistake. From the shadows of a rotting log, Demon emerged. The lynx with his terrible stink and dark pointed ears. Dimstar let out a snarl in warning before he turned to run, alone he was no match for the devil-cat. However, Demon had a different plan.
The lynx leapt forward and landed squarely on Dimstar. There was a struggle as Dimstar attempted to get out from under the heavy creature but to no avail. He clawed and tore in with his teeth to what ever skin he could get from the creature, but the lynx wouldn't let go. The struggle felt like hours but only last a matter of seconds until the lynx gave a killing blow to his neck, stealing his remaining lives. Dimstar was gone.
Content with his kill, Demon picked up the remains of the leader before he headed back to his den to feast. The only thing left of Dimstar to show his clanmate's his fate was a few tufts of matted grey fur.
Fawn @jet
Newleaf 31st!
Note: Dimstar is dead. Jet will need to write a 'oh no Dimstar is dead' clan announcement. For Newleaf 31st. Then a ninelives post. Use the NPC Vulturetalon to alert the clan if needed.
