(Spoilers for Dovewing's Silence)
Molewhisker and Cherryfall almost killed a number of their Clanmates just because they wanted to lead the Dark Forest trainees to a fox that was trapped. The fox could have easily escaped and killed them all because they were stupid enough to try killing their Clanmates just because they didn't like them. They were old enough to be warriors and knew how wrong it was.
The fox could have easily ran into the camp and killed even more cats. That is stupid and disloyal on their half, and the annoying thing is, they never even got punished for it. They put their Clan in great danger.
Bramblestar walked over and looked down at the silver teeth still clutching to the fox's foreleg. "Cherrypaw and Molepaw said they found traces of a fox inside the border. Did you chase it into the trap?"
Dovewing padded forward. "No," she meowed. "This fox was already trapped when the first patrol found it." She stared at the apprentices. "Wasn't it?"
Cherrypaw nodded miserably.
Bramblestar narrowed his eyes. "That's not what they told me."
"Nor us," Dovewing meowed. "I think they wanted my patrol to find it when it was alive and crazed with pain."
"Why would they do that?" Squirrelflight asked.
Dovewing let her gaze travel over the shamefaced warriors to rest on her brave patrol. "Because my patrol was made up of cats who once trained with the Dark Forest. Cherrypaw and Molepaw feel no loyalty toward them, and were willing to send them into great danger." - Dovewing's Silence, page 281-282
Cherrypaw even lied. If there was a fox in the territory, they should have reported it to Bramblestar, but they didn't, which is suspicious. Molewhisker and Cherryfall put Dovewing's patrol in danger just because they didn't like the fact that they trained with the Dark Forest cats (not including Dovewing)
"Cherrypaw slid to a stop, almost losing her paws on the loose mulch. "We . . . we. . ." She paused for a moment until her breath steadied. "We found the scent of a fox inside our border. It could be the one that ShadowClan drove out, and it's looking for more cats." - Dovewing's Silence, page 276
Not only that, but they made it seem like the Dark Forest trainees weren't loyal when they swore on an oath and were trying to be loya to their Clanl. It wasn't playing; it was showing how much you don't like or don't trust them. The battle had even been over for a while.
"Stay back, traitor!" hissed Snowkit, fluffing up his white pelt. "You say you're a ThunderClan cat now, but we know the truth! You just want to kill us!"
Molepaw arched his back. "Aha! It seems you do not trust me, even though I swore an oath! Well you're right! I am your most dangerous enemy!" He pounced toward the kits, his tail lashing.
Dovewing bounded over and stood in front of the brown-and-cream apprentice. "What are you doing?" she demanded.
Molepaw blinked up at her. "Playing," he answered innocently.
Dovewing hissed. "You know full well that this is more than a game. Why are you trying to make these kits frightened of the Dark Forest? That battle has been won."
The apprentice's gaze slid sideways to rest on Thornclaw and Birchfall, who were sharing tongues by the tree stump. "Not entirely," he muttered." - Dovewing's Silence, page 273
