The Arrival of Eagle and Herra

[kgal]

Eagle turned to face his sister, Herra. Her black fur shone in the sun, almost seeming darker than his. "Come, Herra." He growled.

"Yes, brother," the lithe she-cat bowed her head in submission, then followed her brother to who-knows-where. She was always mistreated by him, but he had rescued her countless times.

Eagle snarled. His younger, more foolish sister never learned. He heard a rustling in a nearby bush and stopped, bulking up his fur and standing in front of Herra. "Come and show yourself!"

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

" Chill, would yah?"

The retort came from a gray-blue tom coming out of the bushes. He was closely followed by a darker tabby she-cat. The tom started to walk around them, taking them in.

" Looks like we have some new kitties in the forest, eh, Thistle?"

The tabby was looking at Herra, scared for her. The tom didn't seem very nice to her. Her friend's voice brought her out of her reverie. She smiled, though it was more like a sneer. " Yes, it seems we do." Thistle meowed back. She looked Eagle up and down, then Herra. " Who're you, and why are you here?" She growled menacingly.

[kgal]

((Hey, Cloudy! ;D))

"We are no kittypets if you are blind," Eagle snarled, baring his razor-sharp fangs. "Though I cannot say the same of you two..."

Herra looked on fearlessly. She stepped ahead of her older, more cautious brother. He was right; neither party looked as if they had been fed recently. "We are wanderers. Rogues, if you please. Now will you let us pass in peace or do we have to resort to a fight?"

Eagle looked at Herra incredulously. "Get back, girl!" He shoved her down, gashing her already torn side.

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300]Blackthorn was watching from a tree, she shook her head at the lower ranks then jumped down from her tree.Her graseful step made her beautiful but her half ded soul made her look well...half dead "you must be new,tell me,what is your ranks" hissed the Gauardian.She was stronger then all of these stupid low rankers (sorry she has been liek this ever sence Bloodclaw cheated on her) and she didn't want to prove it "state your rank" she hissed again.[/glow]

[kgal]

"We are rogues! We have no rank!" Eagle hissed from over Herra. "Now I must discipline my fool of a sister!" He raised his paw, unsheathing his claws and powering up for a blow she'd never forget.

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300]Blackthron hissed "low rankers" she said under her breath "Do you know who i am?" she asked with a hiss "Im blackthorn the guardian of the rouges third in comand"Blackthorn said her beautiful pelt glowed lightly in the sun[/glow]

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

(( Hey Ember! Didn't notice that you were Eagle and Herra!))

Thorn bowed his head quickly in respect to the Guardian. " We are Loyalists, Blackthorn." He meowed. " These two are newcomers; no rank, I guess." He hissed at Eagle's comment. " You'd do well to keep your mouth shut, young rip. Like your young friend here said, do we have to resort to a fight? I'd gladly oblige." His tail lashes back and forth, ready to spring if Eagle attacked.

Thistle leaped between Herra and her brother, fury coursing through her veins. " That is enough!" She hissed. " You leave her alone. She is already hurt; why hurt her more?" The she cat crouched, laughing. " You call yourselves Wonderers? More like thin-boned loners to me! Don't worry. You get fattened up on things around here." Her voice turned soft,almost loving, as she said that to Herra. " Don't even think about it, Thorn!" Thistle whispered to her brother.

[kgal]

Eagle, enraged and without hesitation, raised and swung his paw at the nearest cat. Thistle. The blow sent her spiralling off of Herra. ((Whoa! 1st, major godmod on my part, sorry, which is not what i usually do. 2nd, what happened to our kindness? Haha, I changed characters!)) The male cat hissed and snapped up the tuft of fur around Herra's neck, then threw her ten rabbit-hops away with ease. That'll teach you. He thought with rage.

Herra whined as she fell, hard, onto the ground. She got to her legs wearily, though, and called to her brother: "Do not harm her! You have no right."

Eagle whipped his head around, ignoring the other three ((is that how many there are)) cats. "What did you say to me?"

"I said you shall not harm her."

Eagle leapt at Herra. "Inferior filth! You do not speak to me in this way!" He bit his sister's forepaw and she fell limp as a loud crack filled the forest. He had broken her leg. Then he turned to the others.

"What are you staring at! This is none of your concern!"

((Whoo! I got a truly evil, selfish and abusive character! I am on a roll! Sorry, not really. ))

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

(( Whoa! Nice, Ember! There are...5 cats, including you two.(I know there's one of you, but your cahracters are two, leave me be)))

Thistle got up stiffly and stepped again between the two siblings. " I said not to harm her." She hissed. " Now you shall face the wrath of the Black Rose!" She yowled as she launched herself at Eagle while Thorn gently pulled Herra out of the away from the battle. " You ok?" He asked as he examined the leg. It was a serious injury; she'd be lucky to walk again, let alone fight and hunt. Herra's life was ruined. Rage coursed through the tom, but he commanded himself to stay calm and stay with Herra while his friend fought her own battle.

[kgal]

Eagle hissed as he hit the ground and slammed his hindpaws into Thistle, sending her sprawling. "You cannot harm me! Look at me compared to you!" It was nearly true. He was so built up with muscle and fur that he looked nearly twice as big as the she-cat. He leapt at her and pushed her even farther away from the safety of Thorn. He kept shoving until they had reached a rosebush. Thistle's back was to it, and Eagle shoved her against it.

Herra slowly opened her eyes. Pain tore through her leg, but she knew best not to move it. She remembered something similar to this had happened to her once before. If only she could remember...
She looked up to see Thorn crouching over her. "Hello," she greeted as cheerfully as she could. "I am Herra. You must help your mate, for she is in grave danger. Eagle will kill her quickly if something isn't done." Seeing the look in the tom's eyes that seemed to say What about you?, Herra smiled weakly.
"Don't worry for my safety. Save your friend, and be kind to her always."
Herra's breathing slowed as Thorn's torn image faded into black, and she fell unconcious.

((P.S. Think of Eagle as a really evil Beast, and Herra as a really nice Belle.))

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

" Herra!" Thorn cried, but decided it was best to leave her be. The leg would need to be splinted somehow, he knew, but for now she had to lie still. Thistle was backed up into the thorny rose bush, thorns pricking her back and legs, but she refused to cry out. That's waht gave Eagle joy, most like-the suffering and pain of others. She wouldn't give in!

Thorn ran at the other tom, teeth pulled into a snarl as he bowled him over and away from his friend. " Leave Thistle alone!" He yowled. Thistle leaped from the bush and ran to safety to lick her wounds by the unconcious Herra. Feeling sorry for the little she-cat, she left her own wounds open and bleeding to lick the blood from Herra's broken leg. She hoped that Thorn would be ok and that Savvanheart wouldn't be left broken hearted.

[kgal]

Eagle leapt up and swung his full body weight (toward the rosebush) against Thorn ramming the tom into it. Eagle then rammed his head against Thorn's body, shoving it into the bush. He raised his paw and hit Thorn's head while Thorn's body was pricked to the bush. Then, taking advantage of the male's absence, he galloped toward Thistle and shoved her away, too.
Grabbing the tuft on Herra's neck, he leapt off into the forest and hid himself and his sister.

Eagle thought for a moment. Taking her with me will only slow me down. He spotted a huge cave nearby, with a large rumbling coming from deep within it. There... a big-dog's cave... I hope big-dogs like fresh meat.

Eagle rubbed his paw in his sister's side wound. Taking care not to smear any blood on the ground yet, he hobbled toward the cave. Sure enough, a big-dog was asleep in there. Eagle cautiously limped forward, then dabbed some blood on the rock before the big-dog's nose. It sniffed and it started tossing and turning, smelling the blood.

I don't have much time. Eagle thought as he started smearing a trail of cat blood toward his motionless sister. But soon it was done, and Eagle heard the growling of a very grumpy and hungry big-dog who just woke up.

((And, if you didn't know, a big-dog is supposed to be a bear.))

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

Thorn lay motionless in the rosebush, but got up stiffly when Thistle nudged him. Both cats were bleeding from fresh wounds. Looking into each other's eyes, they knew what the other was thinkg- that Eagle was an evil cat and that he had to be stopped! Thistle dashed away into the udnergrowth, followung Herra and Eagle's scent trails. Thorn came behind her, slowly but surely. His wounds stung as a cold wind blew.

Grinding his teeth, he kept on until his friend had led him to a cave. Herra's blood was all over the place; a big-dog, lips curled so he could sniff, was smelling a blood trail that led to Herra. The little she-cat was still unconcious, unknowing og her fate. " Thistle!" The she-cat had gone between the big-dog and Herra and was smearing her own blood on the ground to confuse it. " I'm going to get Eagle, you stay and protect Herra!" The tom called back as he headed after the stench of the tom.

[kgal]

Eagle heard the faint pawsteps growing claser every second. He cursed under his breath and jumped up into a tree. Then he hid himself by rubbing against the bark, attained the smell and crouched on a high branch in the shadows, virtually invisible and unsmellable.

Herra could hear a familiar voice, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it. Herra... ake up... Herra you must... Herra wake up! Herra's eyes snapped open and she smelled big-dog. Thistle was nearby. The scent of blood flooded her nostrils. She looked up and saw the lumbering big-dog coming out of its cage. The big-dog saw Thistle, and she was unaware.
"Thistle!" Herra called out weakly.

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

Thorn tried to sniff, but Eagle's smell was almost undetectable in this prey-filled part of the forest. The tree sap didn't help either. Relying on his sharp eyes, he looked up in the trees. Unknowingly he climbed up Eagle's tree trying to sniff him out.

Thistle turned to look at the big-dog. It was drooling something horrible, and the smell of it almost made her faint. Forcing herself to stay awake, she stood her ground, swiping at the big-dog's nose to make it go away. " You won't get Herra!" She yowled. " She did nothing to you!"

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300]Blackthorn sat waching all ,when she sall the dog she smiled evily inside.She ran swiftly at the dog and before long she was on top of him,scratching and bitting at his neak.[/glow]

[wolf]

ooc:I'll deleat this if mesa not supposed to post here
Wolf had been watching a ways away. he didn't usually do this. This was more of a 'Rain' thing to do. When he saw the dog, his jaws dropped and his fur fluffed out more then normal. He looked like a living fuzzball. He squealed and, in fright, revealed himself by tearing off toward a tree. he jumped up, but his young claws could barely keep a hold.

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

(( If you're a rogue, you're welcome! ;D))

Thistle had backed up when Blackthorn had jumped at the big-dog (which is a bear), and kenw she had to get Herrra away, Just then, that kitten had run up a tree. Dragging Herra over there, being careful of her broken leg, she dropped er by the tree Wolf had climbed and looked up. " Come on down, kit." She mewed. " Come and watch this poor cat. She needs to be protected; can you do that?"

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300]Blackthorn hung on tight to the big-dog's neak, he was fatter then a normal dog and Blackthorn knew this.She inch by inch went after it's face.Her claws started digging into it's eyes.[/glow]

[Blackpelt ~ Pippin]

Wolf shook his head at the cat. "No way!" he cried.

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300]Blackthorn blinded the dog then went for it's nose once it could not smell she tore off one of it's ear.[/glow]

[kgal]

Eagle flew ((like an eagle)) down and hit, claw first, Thorn's head, driving inch-long needles into it. Eagle quickly pulled them out and he dashed away toward the ShadowClan camp.

Herra watched as the big-dog fought the struggling she-cat. Quickly, she laid her paw upside-down and pushed hard. A large crack again filled the forset, but this would do. By repositioning the bone, it would support her as a makeshaft splint. She leapt up and tore after the big-dog, gorging out its eyes. Soon blood soaked the ground as the big-dog was blinded.

[Badgersoul]

[glow=purple,2,300](IM A SHE_KITTY AHHHHHHH)


The bear ran away and Blackthorn folowed it she knew it would not life and she knew it had alot of meat...[/glow]

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

(( Huh? That was an auto-hit, plus a g-mode some-what. I get to choose if I go unconcious or not, not you.))

Thistle watched with pride as Herra attacked the big-dog. She quickly ran over to her to check her over. " You ok, Hera?" By now, she had forgotten about about Wolf and his reufsal to protect a wounded creature.

[kgal]

((AAAHHHH! SORRY!! I'M CHANGING BOTHA MY POSTS!! SORRY!! THIS REALLY ISN'T LIKE ME!! SORRY FOR THE GODMOD TOO! AAAHHHH!!!! ))

"I am fine," Herra mumbled, licking her claws. The big-dog's blood tasted good... "I may need something to fix my leg, though."

[Thorn & Co. (Night)]

(( S'ok, Ember. We all make mistakes. No one's perfect. ;D Well, maybe me...))

Eagle's claws were sharp and thorny. Blood dripped into Thorn's eyes, but he didn't give in. As Eagle ran to the ShadowClan camp, he jumped down from the tree and limped back to the big-dog's cave.

As he came into the cave, Thistle was mewing, " Good. Thorn will when he gets back...ah, there's the big calloot! Wait, what's wrong?" Fear crossed her face as she saw his wounds. She quickly ran to him and started to lick the dried blood away. " Is Eagle gone?"

Thorn just nodded. He didn't want to tell them where he went, not yet. Herra wasn't ready. Thistle knew he was hding something, but didn't give the fact away. " Well, come lay down. I'll get a stick and try to splint Herra's leg with some cobwebs." Thorn lay down heavily by Herra while Thistle ran off to get a stick and find a spider's web.

[Blackpelt ~ Pippin]

Wolf fell from the tree just then. He was wailing pitifully.

[Lightbreeze & Co. (Night)]

(( no time to change charries))

Thorn looked up at Wolf. He beckoned with a flick of his tail. " Come over here, little one. We don't bite."

[Blackpelt ~ Pippin]

Wolf whimpererd and stood up. He padded slowly over. 'I wanna go home." he whispererd. He suddenly felt sick.

[Lightbreeze & Co. (Night)]

" We'll take you home." Thorn whispered. " Come. Sit by me. You must be tired."
