Open Let the Feathers Fly

Sukoi shied back a bit. Why were they supposed to attack the Spearows when they had no proof that the fellow birds had been stealing their food? However she was afraid to speak up in fear that she would be banished from the Pidgeys. If she was, she could join the Spearows, but then they would probably kill her before she set talon in their territory. This food-stealing thing was more complicated than she thought.

Meanwhile, Allitros was more agreeable with her leader. "Here, here!" she called, raising her small wings in a cloak-like manner. How dare these Pidgeys steal their food? The greedy grimeclaws ought to die! She squawked furiously. "I agree! What shall we do first, leader?!"
 
Aren screeched his agreement, and hopped from foot to foot. "Of course, it's always the Spearow! We should attack, they're probably hoarding the food somewhere!"
 
"What?!" Karma screeched in her thick avian tongue. "Then I have an excellent idea! Why don't we feast on them instead? They've plumped themselves up, now they're going to pay!" Then, she added, "Anyone who doesn't like eyes can give them to me! That is, unless I've already plucked them out!"
 
"We start our attack at dawn tomorrow." Kazura screamed, "Those food-stealers will pay with their lives!"

(Accepted one who wanted to join)
 
"Hey now fellow Pidgey, no need to get so uptight!" Haruto spread his wide wings apart in attempt to get attention.
"Is an attack really necessary?" He couldn't be heard over the cry to battle.
"Oh boy... birds of a feather fight together..."
 
Aren glared at Haruto, and screeched again. "We need their blood! There must be a fight!"
 
"We can take back what is ours, and we shall banish the thieves from our territory!" Rajac continued.

Maybe he should tone it down a bit. That Karma had always worried him, what with the eye-plucking and whatnot. But she was on the right track, at least. Rajok turned to adress Allitros.

"We shall test demolish whatever meager defenses the Pidgey throw up! DarkWing will lead a raid to find the food! Who will volunteer to join him?"

DarkWing also worried Rajoc, but less so than Karma. Sure, the dark-feathered Spearow was a loose cannon, but he was very good at stealth missions.
 
Roran cocked his head to the side slightly, a questioning look on his face. What did the Pidgeys ever do? Regardless, though, this sounded like quite the adventure. He raised his right wing high in the air (which is to say barely above the heads of the other Spearow), waving it frantically.

"Pick me! Pick me! I'm reeaaalll good at finding food!" he yelled loudly.
 
Roran was, well, bumbling at times. But maybe he was good at finding food. He certainly wasn't good at much else he'd tried. Rajoc wouldn't admit it to himself, but there was a third reason for letting him go; it would get him out of everyone else's feathers!

But then again, the little guy did just yell really loudly to try out for a stealth mission...

"Erm, We'll see, Roran." Rajoc told the young Spearow pleasantly.
 
A stealth mission. Why a stealth mission? Why couldn't they just charge in and do some good old-fashioned eye-plucking and feather-pulling?!

"On the other hand, we could just go in and rip them to shreds! Which sounds easier to you, hm?!"
 
"The stealth mission seems fine by me." DarkWing spoke to Rajoc.He was ready for another stealth mission as he hadn't been on one in a while. Also he liked the taste of fresh Pidgey in the morning. And night. But this would be the first offensive in a war! He would need to prepare for this, and find a good squad to take. When you're dealing with stealth, you can't afford a slip-up.
 
Allitros raised her wings. "Stealth mission!" she hawked. "We can get revenge on more of those grimeclaws that way!" She began hopping about, spreading her pink wings for balance. "I have to agree with you, Karma... they deserve to go down."

Sukoi was about to get confident enough to stand up to Kazura alongside Haruto, but Haruto's reprimanding made her flinch a bit more. She didn't want to kill anyone. All she had to do was stay hidden from the Spearows. Hidden from her own kind. Just hidden...
 
Slushie shook his head in shame, they were all assuming that it was the spearow right off the bat. He didn't like the spearows in any case, but he found that it was foolish to start a war, which would end up in no result, other than the obvious number of casualities.

"As we're all bandwagoning that it was the spearows, let me ask a question. On what grounds, or what evidence do we have that it was the other group? And how can we assume that they may not have encountered the same problem, and are looking at us to blame?" Slushie had a very powerful voice, and was quite sure he would be heard.
 
Glancing at Slushie, Sukoi slowly shuffled towards him. She kept thinking that she didn't want to kill anybody, but knowing Kazura she would make her do so right off the bat. "I agree with you," she whispered in the other Pidgey's ear.
 
Slushie was happy to know that someone agreed with him and thanked Sukoi, while continuing to stare across the rest of the crowd.

"Waht are you to say? Do you truly wish for unnecessary violence and death, or will you use your minds and not your stamoachs!?!" Slushie declared loudly, he had no interest in fighting if it weren't necessary.
 
"Seriously! Why does it have to be violence!?" Haruto jumped up worriedly.
"How do we know they aren't preparing for a fight as well! News travels fast, what if they already have defenses being put up against us! We aren't the quietest group in the area!"
Haruto wasn't the kind of bird who was put down easily.
"Now I like ripping and shredding about as much as I like a head cold, I'll admit. But be logical!" Haruto thought to himself "Then again, what do I know about logic..."
 
Kazura flew towards Slushie and tried to knock him down. She stood on top of him, her talons gripping.

"Have you NOT seen the Spearow feathers fluttering around?" she yelled, "And I saw a Spearow with my own eyes. You saying I have bad eyesight?"

She glared, ready to start a fight if necessary.
 
"Good! Then who all will aid me in this mission? My elite forces do not have the numbers . . ." he yelled out, hoping to get enough for a full-scale stealth attack.
