Here on Classic we understand that sometimes life can get difficult and we struggle. We may need to receive advice, vent, know that we are not alone in our difficult times, or even just have someone listen to what's going on in our lives. In light of these times, we have created the support threads below that are open to all of our members at any time.
At least that is what Littlestar had been told, when a messenger raced into camp with the news. A patrol had caught one of their unwelcomed visitors in the act of mutilating Deliciateephmeral. The cat had paralyzed the she-cat with herbs, and was slowly carving her open while still alive. The scene the patrol happened up was brutal, and the cat responsible had almost gotten away. However, they were now in SunClan's grasp. Placed into the prison at the Janus camp, and kept under guard until Littlestar could deal with she-cat's injuries and confront the cat herself. The winter solstice was almost upon them, and they didn't have time to spare. They needed answers, and they needed answers soon.
To get them, she had gathered her Janus together "I believe it is safe to assume that this cat is part of the group that has been terrorizing SunClan" they were far enough away that the cat wouldn't be able to hear them "but something about this is off... These cats are sly, and haven't left any traces thus far... This was, sloppy" she paused looking to the other cats "Almost as if they wanted to be caught"

The imagine of a dead cat flashed before her eyes and she hoped that Deliciateephemeral was okay. They had never spoken but Lacelily would not wish that upon any cat, especially one of their own. It sounded brutal and merciless, "I feel like we're running in circles and stepping on our own tails trying to figure out what's going on," frustration bubbled within her. She was focused on healing but what point was healing if you needed to protect your clanmates?
"Maybe he wanted to be caught. But why? There is little to be learned in a prison cell." Of course, she'd never been a prisoner before but it sounded boring and unhelpful.

"That is what we need to find out" she replied looking over towards the prison cells "The winter solstice is tomorrow, and the moon is already high in the sky. We need to get our answers quickly, and return back to camp" they all knew.. The winter solstice was the day of the year the sun was at it's weakest, leaving the clan weakened and vulnerable. Being away from the main camp now wasn't ideal, but this could be an oppertunity to find out what these cats were planning and get ahead of them
Nightfury had felt his old self bubbling up for the past few moons, and with the outsider caught he felt like it was going to boil over the moment he saw them. Sure, he had killed, but it was never a sport. It served a purpose, and he did his best to make quick. These cats knew nothing but savagery, and he wanted them gone. He knew killing this one cat wouldn't solve anything, but it would make him feel better. He still understood the strangeness behind all of this. He and Littlestar had talked about it before. They always seemed to have knowledge of all their patrol's timings and stuff like that. This either meant their spy disappeared, or they made mistakes.
The fur stood up on his neck at the thought of it being on purpose. "Littlestar... stay behind us. What better way to get you than be captured?" The dark tom put himself between her and the prison cells. "They could have poison on their claws." He had done something like this as an assassin. He played dead, and a cat walked right into his paws.

Littlestar nodded "Very well. Nightfury, take the lead. I will hang back out of site, but listening to the proceedings" it might have been strange that she hadn't choosen her mate to take charge, but Nigthfury had a lot of experience in this area. He had a dark past, and knew how to get answers out of even the most stubborn of prisoners "Skipstep and Sorrowularia can assist" she looked to the younger Janus and soothsayer promised "Lillypool, Vividcanary, and Lacelily. I would like you to stay back with me as back up. If to many cats crowd into the prison cell it could do more harm than good. Our job will be to listen, to think about the words they say. To read in between the lines. We will only step in if necessary. It is better if the prisoner never even finds out that we are there"
Skipstep nodded, he was not much for torture, despite being one of the oldest Janus. His paws were stained with blood, but the art of torture was not something he did well. When violence came he preferred to be swift with his actions.
Torture was about drawing it out enough to get the intel that was needed, and such a thing was not Skipstep's specialty.
So he let Nightfury take the lead, ready to assist in doing whatever was necessary to get out the intel that was needed. With an old hand at it, they were more likely to find success.
Vividcanary was happy to stay back with her mother. The young she-cat had lived a rather sheltered, cushy life so far; she didn't have it in her to be a part of this interrogation. The image of Deliciateephmeral's mutilated body had very nearly caused her to faint on the spot and even now her stomach was in knots.

The silver tabby listened intently to the conversation unfolding before them and nodded when her task was assigned. She had begun to learn the importance of listening and observation and was not disappointed that she wouldn't be in the thick of things. Truth be told, she'd rather not be in the cell with that prisoner anyways. The mere thought of him made her shiver and her fur stand on end. She had begun to harden her mind and stomach to gory sights but could still recognize a horrible sight when she saw one.
"Okay, got it," She would be neither heard or seen.
It felt like a weight had been lifted off his back. Nightfury gave a curt nod to Littlestar before entering the prison. As dark as it was, he expected it to be worse. Maybe they wanted their prisoners to see the light or something, he didn't know. But he had a job to do, and he was not going to fail Littlestar. He sat down near the foreign tom. "Get ready." He whispered to them, and then he cut himself just above his eye. Black blood flowed for a moment, and then it closed on Nightfury's face, but a new wound opened up on the outsider's right eyes." Who are you?"

The cat in the prisoner's den had already been beaten by the patrol that had caught it in the act. Vines kept the prisoner firmly in place, as the three cats entered. The solid black cat didn't struggle or eat, only follow their movements with it's eyes. It didn't scream or cry out as the slash appeared above it's eye, but blinked in surprise as blood began to run down his face. It remained silent, not answering Nightfury's question.
A tough one. He couldn't resist the temptation. The tom growled again as he neared the tom. "You will answer my question." He shoved the tom's face into the earth and pushed it deeper. "You will not act out, nor will you look at anyone but me." After he felt the tom withstood enough he released then before placing his claws just above their left eye. "Speak."
Vividcanary could taste the coppery flavor of blood in the air and stiffened. She was aware of Nightfury's element and assumed he had been using it, but was shocked when he went straight for violence before even asking the first question.
"S-stop!" She squeaked, taking a step forward and prodding Littelstar's shoulder like a child reaching for her mother's hand, "There's got to be a better way to do this. If we hurt him to get information, then we're no worse than he is! L-let me try talking to him!"

It was horrible and uncomfortable. The idea of torture had yet to really settle with the apprentice aged she-cat. Even though blood no longer bothered her, watching it trickle down the prisoners fur and onto the ground was uncomfortable because she watched him bleed and did nothing about it. But it was necessary, right?
"Did you see what he did to Deliciatephemeral?" Lacelily's voice was cool but gentle. "Do you think he will really respond to anything besides violence? If he didn't want to be tortured he shouldn't have tortured our own in the first place." Maybe she was speaking out of turn and should let Littlestar handle it but with every second time ticked, the stronger she felt.
Nothing. Nightfury narrowed his eyes. Really, if they had more time he would have wanted to leave the tom in isolation for a month and then come back. But time was of the essence, and they needed more answers on who these cats were. At her daughter's squeak and whipped his head around and lightly growled to Littlestar. The kitten needed to leave if she couldn't handle it, having her do whatever would only make his job harder.
The dark tom turned his attention back to the outsider. His paws kneaded the sand below, and another idea came to him. He scooped up a pawful of sand and dumped in straight into the outsider's ear, and didn't stop until he could not pack anymore inside. "Anything else to say?" He turned back to Janus behind him and mouthed two words: small bug.
Vividcanary had never been truly scared of any cat. She knew that SunClan's enemies were her enemies and that true evil existed out there somewhere, but she'd never experienced any of it on a personal level. At best she'd only seen the aftermath, like Deliciateephmeral's mutilated body, never the living action. Until now.
And it wasn't the cat with sand in his ear that was making her sick to her stomach.
"But we're not even going to try...?" As she spoke her voice went quieter and tears welled up in her eyes. Vividcanary knew that someday she'd have to follow a path similar to Nightfury's, but she had never imagined it would be quite so cruel right at the start. No attempt at discussion, just instant pain and agony.
And what's worst, everyone else seemed to be okay with this, even her mother.

The cat screamed, as the sand was pushed into his ears. Still staring up defiantly at the Janus who hovered above him "Do your worst" he finally spat, landing clearly onto Nightfury's face "You have already lost"
"Stop" the high priestess comanded, Littlestar let her tail wrap around her daughter and gently guiding Vividcanary farther down the tunnel so that their voices could not be overheard by the others and motioned for Lacelily to follow. She wasn't supposed to be there. Not when she could quite easily be the target of this whole attack. Still she couldn't take the look on her daughters face, the utter horror at what all was unfolding...Beside she had just gotten her answers "Others have already tried more peaceful methods before he was even brought here" she answered her question, once they were some distance away "While I was dealing with his victim, others had already been trying to get answers from him. I know it is cruel, but there are lives on the line" she waited for Skipstep and Nightfury to emerge, fully expecting them to be angry that she had called it off
"Something is wrong, he was far to happy to let us continue the torture" she looked between the assembled cats "This is a trap, but not in the way we expected it to be... Either something is about to go down here, or..." she trailed off "We should return to camp, and take the prisoner with us. We can hold him in the promised's den if need be" she hadn't quite managed to piece it all together yet,things were not adding up

Lacelily glanced once more at the cat being shoved into the sand before following Littlestar and Vividcanary down the tunnel. She listened to little star intently, her ears and tail both perked up as they moved away.
"That doesn't seem right to drag him so close to the center of our clan... is it safe?" Her first thought was her mother, the kits, her siblings who all lived there. Bringing a prisoner inside when they already knew there was some sort of trap... It seemed risky to her. "We don't know what this trap is. Maybe they want inside the clan's camp?" It was a guess and she made that clear in her tone. What a prisoner would want with the clan's home made no sense to her. What could a prisoner achieve in this state?

(I was reading up to the liked post but didnt want to reply at the time as to not disrupt the flow)
Midnightcurrent was quiet since the description of Deliciateephmeral's body horror happenings; glassy-eyed even as he turned a deaf ear to their own torture. Personal experience made him drown out the talk and dissociate for a bit as he ended up waiting for orders. Guess cruelty was a mistress well known to even the clans, not that he surprised perhaps just unpleasant to have to experience it even here where it was suppose to be safer... safe for all of them... But even peace came with the price of having to defend it.
/ "Something is wrong, he was far to happy.../ His ear flickered to Littlestar and immediately was back into listening with interest. Finally give him mystery, something of interest other than these grotesque violations that could wear down any cat who still had a soul.
/ "so close to the center of our clan... is it safe?" / "Perhaps more of us could keep guard and stay alert - I'll volunteer." A half-offer, and half-i-was-going-to-take-first-shift-anyways distrusting tone of the situation. He didn't know what they were planning and couldn't fully feel safe either so the best he could do was offer his all.

"Perhaps not, but leaving them here is also not an option..." The silver High Priestess looked between the gathered Janus "Did you hear what he said?" she paused, taking a moment to replay it over in my mind "The cat we are holding, doesn't care what we do to him. He doesn't fear death" she looked back up towards the prisoner cells "It seems like a delay tactic" she paused trying to figure out exactly what was going on "They want to keep us here" The question was why? While it wasn't necessarily safe to bring the cat to their camp, it was far safer to have so many eyes upon them
