(My post here are going to be a little short so the events might be slow, my computer is having a bunch of problems ~)
"wh-where would I?".. The leader had been pushed into a sharp jagged stone, the slice didn't cut her artery but it had drilled a hole straight through her neck, it was amazing she wasn't dead, getting her out by normal means would not work easy.

( Jinxpaw and I won't be on as much we won't have Internet connection but we will both try to check our accounts as much as we can) Emeraldkit catches to piece of moss " Don't know but it must be serious. Want to wrestle?" He asked trying to get both of their minds off what was in that den.

"Oooh..." Ripplestream groaned, "If we move her in the wrong direction, it could puncture her artery and would kill her. But we can't just leave her in the rock, the wound will get infected and never heal. Plus I can't put a poultice over the wound if there's a rock in the way. This needs precision. There is no room for error." The medicine cat glanced over at the deputy. She seemed a bit flustered, and Ripplestream guessed that her paws would tremble. But there really wasn't anyone else that could help. Any of the other warriors' reactions would probably be the same. How in StarClan would they be able to get her out? Wait, what was the back of the cave like? If they couldn't remove Otterstar from the rock, maybe they could remove the rock from Otterstar?
( Just a crazy idea I had involving rock pushers, if not possible, just tell me. And how many lives did Otterstar have left before the rock situation? The medicine cat should know this)

Dawnpaw went over to Brooktail and started helping Duskpaw get Brooktail to her paws.
"Where does it hurt?" Duskpaw asked Brooktail.

(She lost one before, and she's lost 5 for this)
Brooktail stood trembling , the back of the den had random sorts of sharp rocks sticking up and which ever way, they could perhaps break one and use That? No. What would that do?

( I was thinking that instead of pulling Otterstar from the rocks, we could push the rock away from Otterstar. Wasn't sure if that would collapse the den or not. Probably a bad idea ) Ripplestream paced. No, pushing the rock would probably cause the entire den to collapse. If that happened, it would entirely destroy the clan. Instead of just having to accept a new leader, they would also be without a deputy to replace her, and no medicine cat, because she still didn't have an apprentice. She couldn't risk that. There had to be someway to get Otterstar safely off. Tons of crazy ideas flashed through her mind, each worse than the last. She panicked. No, she couldn't panic. She was the only one with a clear head in the room, and she needed to stay that way. Still, the question of saving Otterstar echoed through her mind. There had to be someway to get Otterstar off of the rocks. She realized that Otterstar was still bleeding to death while she was trying to figure out how to save her. Ripplestream ran over, picked up some cobwebs, and began to place them on the wound. They might as well stop what they can before worrying about the things they can't.

Duskpaw and Dawnpaw helped steady the deputy. "Come on," Duskpaw said. "Let's get you to the medicine cat's den."

Brooktail grumbled and stumbled into the cats, almost knocking them over, not answering.
(My bad, she has 3 life's left, she was pushed into a rock, it's sticking up through the ground but that would be a good idea if you could somehow break it from the floor~)
"I want to help, what could I do?" mewed the deputy softly, she was still absolutely terrified and her voice quivered

Ripplestream began to look more closely at the rock. Maybe a rock pusher could break it off? But who? There weren't many rock pushers in the clan... especially not many warriors who were rock pushers. She padded outside the den.
"I need a rock pusher up here!"

I'm good at pushing rocks, Dawnpaw thought. But that sounds like it's some specific position. I probably don't qualify... She made up her mind. "I'm going back up there," she told Duskpaw. "Can you manage Brooktail?"
"I think so," Duskpaw said, starting to heave Brooktail towards the medicine den - she obviously wasn't going to get any help from the nearly-unconscious she-cat. "But you're not a rockpusher."
"I'm good at moving rocks," Dawnpaw said. She hesitated for a moment, than ran back up the path to the leader's den. "What do you need?" she panted as she burst in, trying not to retch at the smell.

Gravelrock bounded over to the leader's den as soon as he heard Ripplestream's call for a rock pusher. He ran as fast as he could, scraping a pad every now and then until he reached the entrance. He noticed a pungent smell emanating from within, and wrinkled his nose. He walked inside and saw his dying leader in a bloody mess. "O-Otterstar? W-what's going on here?"

Brooktail grumbled and tried to stand back up, she kind of half shook the dirt off the fur, the other part was falling back down on the apprentice .
Willowleaf felt a little drop of happiness dripped into the mixture of the terror and fresh sent of crimson blood, standing at the entrance was a pair of her clanmates ready to help. She prayed they could take in the Stench of a pouring infection without collapsing.

Emeraldkit let out a little squeak of surprise and rolls around with Jinxkit on the ground.

Duskpaw struggled under Brooktail's weight. "A little help here, please?"

Ripplestream sighed, relieved this time, someone had come right away.
"We need this rock broken off of the cave. However, the tip must not move much. We don't want to hurt Otterstar further. Once broken off, we can remove it and apply some herbs."
The medicine cat wasn't sure if this would work. They couldn't just push it, if it broke off, they wouldn't be able to stop in time to prevent it from hurting Otterstar even more. They had to crack it, slowly and carefully. A tree climber wouldn't be strong enough to crack it. Ripplestream was confident that they could do it, providing they could make the first crack. She continued trying to stop the bleeding.

(Also, if the stone comes out of her neck she will bleed to death a lot faster.)
Nervously, Dawnpaw padded over to Otterstar. She sniffed around the rock, trying to figure out the best way to break it. She saw a small fault line. "Maybe we could crack it along that. Him and I would push on the rock, and you could hold Otterstar in place. What do you think?" she asked Gravelrock.

(We can't just leave it in, though. I have plenty of cobwebs.)
"You can't just push the rock," Ripplestream mewed, "Yes, I asked for rock pushers, but we need to enlarge the crack carefully. We can't lose control of the rock when it comes off." She padded over and tried to support Otterstar.

"Well yeah, that's what I meant." Dawnpaw gently pushed on the rock, trying to assess how hard it would be, but she didn't have the experience to tell. "Do you think we can do it?" she asked the other rockpusher, whose name she did not know.
