JackalBurr steps out onto Deputy's Rock below the leader, and RedStar has called a meeting.
"All Thunderclan cats old enough to catch their own prey, you may gather below the High Rock!"

Each cat gathers around the High Rock, every one of them glancing up to view the authoritative cats.
"As we all have noticed, the twolegs have released an.. unearthly substance into the waters surrounding our clans. But I believe that Starclan is on our side and that this toxic substance will not affect us! So do not fret, You are safe to continue on patrols despite this liquid spreading.."
RedStar clears her throat before calling off the meeting, and she trots down to the Leader's den.

JackalBurr knew that the leader had always been a bit overconfident, but he never realized that she wouldn't even be wary of a toxic substance.. He had a bad feeling about this situation; despite the other's false reassurance.

Little did they all know, this was the last meeting of Thunderclan for moons.

The sun rises the next morning, and JackalBurr awakes to panicked yowls and arguments. He stumbles awake, quickly padding to RedStar's den to wake her up. Only to find.. toxic, green substance leaking through the inner rock walls of the den, seeping through it. Her paws, which have contacted the sludge, half-rotted down to her skin.

"RedStar, Please, Wake up! The clan!"
He quickly awakens her, and she stumbles out.

They stand under the High Rock, watching as cats stumble past large puddles of this substance; many cats finding their paws and other exposed areas to be burnt once contacting the liquid. Before anything else can be said, JackalBurr yowls; RedStar shuddering with a weak posture.
"Everyone, Evacuate camp! NOW,!"

Many cats stumble out of camp, hissing and growling at each other out of pure distress.
JackalBurr starts to follow out rather quickly before he glances back.
RedStar shouts, Her face pale as her paws rot and weaken by the moment. An odd, feral growl to her tone.
"Leave me, LEAVE! IT IS SPREADING..!"
Before he can act, RedStar collapses. Her maws foaming.

JackalBurr runs out, leaping over puddles of neon liquid and passing the crowd to lead them.
They walked for what seemed like moons, atleast one cat, each few moments collapsing into the substances and being left behind.

"AGH!"
A loud yowl is heard from behind the smaller crowd, and JackalBurr looks back. A long-time elder of Thunderclan, MaggotFang stumbles up from the substance, his face pale and almost dead appearing. He starts to pad forward, a low growl in his tone. Ears pinned, maws foaming and all types of chemical burns spreading at his paws and legs.
JackalBurr shouts, picking up a stick between his maws and throwing it towards MaggotFang to delay him.
"EVERYONE, FASTER! AVOID THE LIQUID,,!"
He has now seen, this substance could be the death of every cat as we know it.. He needs to protect these cats.
