Featherfoot
Featherfoot followed where the smell was coming from. When it got smellier, she could see a shiny, abnormal rock in the water, crawling with Twolegs. "URGH! The stench!" She ran to Oakstar.

It is now late morning.
Oakstar
Oakstar had slept well, undisturbed for the most part. He was sleeping peacefully until he heard his name called. He reluctantly got up and exited his den to find Fallowfern and Featherfoot there. "What is it?" He asked. "Is everything alright? What's that smell?" He hadn't noticed it high up in his tree den. He could also hear a faint rumbling in the distance.

Tendrilstalk
~She-cat, LeafClan, Hunter, 25 moons~ Tendrilstalk wondered what she should do about the taint while rubbing her nose against the fern fronds next to her den. Going to Oakstar’s den seems like the only option, even if it meant going closer to the source. He might not be able to fan it away, but others should have gathered there already to discuss solutions. Leaving the refreshing plants behind, the tortoiseshell trotted towards the largest tree on the island. Wispkit ~Tom, PalmClan, Kit, Newborn~ The little tom felt his littermates shuffle and woke. Drawn to the movement, he too, snuggled closer to the comfort of their mother’s belly. Catsquid anawarrior

Featherfoot
Panting, Featherfoot exclaimed, "There's a shiny rock with Twolegs all over it! That's the smell! I saw a dead fish next to it too, so the Twolegs might be poisoning the fish!"
Pebblefur
Pebblefur awoke to a horrific smell, and he was very hot and couldn't breath well. He tried to raise his head, but nothing happened. "Hello?" He rasped. "Can someone help me?"

Oakstar
Oakstar sat confused as Featherfoot explained what was happening, with a small crowd gathering at the base of the tree. "Rock? What do you mean..." He said, trailing off. "I'm going to go check this out. Feel free to come with, but be careful." He said before racing towards the shore. Soon, Oakstar saw what Featherfoot had been talking about. It did look like a rock... kind of. It looked smooth, shiny, and much too colorful. "Oh, one of these..." He mumbled under his breath. "I've seen one of these once or twice before. We would call them water-monsters. They're not like twolegs or animals, but they're still alive, it seems. They can move around in the sea. They've passed by before, but I've never seen one this close... This is bad." Oakstar watched in shock as the twolegs left the water-monster and swung a strange stick with a shiny rock at a tree until it fell over. "Don't move," He whispered.
Twolegs
A tall twoleg had been sitting in the boat, waiting until it was light enough. At 9 AM, he decided they could begin working safely. He called to another worker and picked up an axe and a shovel. Together, the two exited the boat and walked up to a tall tree. The twoleg called over to another one in the boat, who answered with a nod. He began to chop at the tree, and did so for a while, until it fell to the ground with a loud snap. The worker he had brought with him took the shovel from the ground and began to loosen the dirt around the stump.

Featherfoot
Featherfoot held back a scream of terror and horror as the ugly Twoleg hacked down the tree with a sharp, shiny endedstick. "What the heck is that? What are they doing?" She whisper-screamed, ears pinned back. Then she spotted another dead fish float up from the surface. "There. You see?" Featherfoot gestured to the dead fish with her tail.
Pebblefur
Pebblefur panted. He was well aware that he had a fever and was worried. Again, he tried to lift is head or shift his paws to cool down. Nothing happened. Pebblefur knew that he had always had had trouble breathing and an odd gait in for a little while, but him and everyone else thought it was old age. "Help me! I can't move!" He cried again, then caught his breath. The fever was unbearable and he was struggling to breath.

Sandtail
Sandtail yawned before gasping as he closed his mouth, cursing in his about the strange smell he looked around, certainly it was not his herbs, none of them smelled like that, well not as bad. At least the smell was quite faint so his nose managed to have some clean air. His whiskers twitched, his medicine cat sense was telling him that something was wrong, really wrong.
The medicine cat stood up and left his den, looking around his mind was trying to figure why his senses are telling that something was wrong until BAM.
Maybe it was something with Pebblefur, sure he was old but it looked like he was having some sort of problems. The light ginger tom sprinted to where his den located, trying his best to ignore the smell that was getting close and closer.
"Pebblefur, are you there?" @bone

Pebblefur
"Yes! Yes!" Pebblefur shouted, then coughed and panted. "I have a fever and can't move and barely can breath!" Relief washed over him, but he was still hot and couldn't catch his breath.

Oakstar
Oakstar stared at the water in confusion. "Does it look, I dunno, shiny to you? Like, a colorful shiny. That's not normal," he whispered. He thought for a moment about what to do. "The dens around this side of the island are mostly empty, which is good. Except for Minkblaze... But she's right in the middle of this, we probably won't be able to get to her until the twolegs are off the island. Make sure everyone knows about the trouble, and warn them to stay far away from this side of the island. Now, let's go back. We've stayed here long enough already. They might smell us- that is, if they can smell anything apart from the stench of their water-monster," he mewed quietly but urgently before heading back to his den.

Featherfoot
Featherfoot nodded, then started around the island.
