Re: Left or Right, you Choose [horsegodess] (T)

[P r o m i s e r]

"Your probably right. I'll be at the river." I meowed and took off towards the stream.

[horsegodess]

Sasha payed no further attention to Nico. She raised herself into a standing position, and daintily stepped her paw over Thorns's body. Her tail was erect, and her she released her heat scent freely. She stepped all the way over him and now she was facing him. She lowered herself into a crunched position again and meowed. "we've been friends for years. what has changed?"

[Blackberry]

Thorns turned his head away, even though his upper lip curled as he inhaled her heat scent. He turned to face her, his light green eyes dark. 'We have both changed,' he muttered. 'We're more grown up. I'm pretty sure you're feelings have changed for me...' he turned his head again, his nose trembling. 'I'm pretty sure you love Nico now. I've been such a idiot...'

[horsegodess]

"what are you talking about? i dont love anyone" Sasha exclaimed, forgetting that this comment may hurt Thorn's feelings. Sasha rubbed her head against Thorns'.

[P r o m i s e r]

I looked in the river at my reflection, and pretty soon it was replaced with Sasha's. "How could I fall in love with Sasha so quickly!?" I meowed, loud enough for Thorn or Sasha to hear.

[horsegodess]

Sasha ignored the meow coming from the river, and continued to rub her head on Thorns.

[Blackberry]

( i gtg I'll have to post later)

[Blackberry]

Thorns was surprised. 'What?'

[horsegodess]

"talk with me. tell me why your doing this" Sasha purred.

[P r o m i s e r]

I watched them carefully, and saw how affectionate Sasha was being towards Thorns. "Hey, bro. You alright?" Paws asked, standing at my side. "Yeah... I just.. Love, Sasha that's all." I meowed, my gaze on the ground until I heard a hiss in the yard.
There he was, Aurath. The tom that killed Riley's parents, and my claws unsheathed when he stalked towards the tree Sasha and Thorns were in. "Paws. Go to the alley... Now." I hissed to the smaller cat, and he nodded before sprinting away, since he was all speed.
Aurath was the same size as I was, but I wasn't sure about strength. "You there! Lay one claw on her or Thorns, and I'll tear your pelt off!" I hissed, my muscles rippling. "Try and stop me, Nico! Its pay back!" He meowed. "It was within reason! You killed my family, and nearly killed me as a kit!" I hissed, and clawed his face.
"You shouldn't have done that, Nico. Now I'm gonna get revenge by killing what you love!" Aurath hissed, and darted up the tree. "Don't you DARE hurt them!" I snarled, and clinged onto his back paw. Aurath leaped down, causing me to land on my side with a huff. Getting up, I clawed his flank. But he whirled around, and sank his teeth into my front paw.
Knowing a trick, I unsheathed my claws inside his mouth and scratched his tongue before using my other paw to bat him away. Aurath kicked me in the face, sending me to the ground stunned. "He, he, he. Payback time." He meowed grimly, and climbed up the tree.
Hissing with fury, I darted up the tree and pushed Aurath off the tree, and stood in front of Sasha and Thorns with a furious hiss. Jumping down, my claws sank into Aurath's side, and caused him to meow in pain. "Y-Y-You will regret this... Nico." He hissed angrily.
"Nobody lays a claw on Sasha or Thorns unless they want to answer to me." I said, and sank my claws in his side further, and then his body gave a jerk, then lay still.

[Blackberry]

Thorns began to reply, but paused and stared down in shock as Nico killed a cat right in front of them. His jaw dropped and he stared at Nico, his eyes wide with fear and surprise.

[horsegodess]

AS the strange cat ran up the tree, Sasha lept to her feet and gave a hiss. She stood back and watched as Nico killed the cat. She was at a loss of words.

[Blackberry]

Thorns glanced at Sasha, his jaw still open. He was lost for words, too. He then stared back down at Nico. Murderer! he declared to himself.

[P r o m i s e r]

By the look they were giving me, I could tell what they were saying. "I am no murderer! This cat killed my family, that kits parents, and almost kille me!" I meowed fiercely, my heart feeling shattered by my friends.
"Nico is right. You 2 should be geatful he did what he did. Nico could have just let Aurath kill you! He did that because he wanted to avenge his family, and because he cares about you guys!" Linus hissed, his eyes narrowed. "You don't wanna know how many other cats, Aurath has killed." I snarled.

[Blackberry]

Thorns was starting to grow tired of Nico and his friend's smart mouthes, so he silently snarled, 'Oh, really?' His lip curled into a sneer. 'I didn't know that the oh-so-great Nico would let Aurath touch his precious kin!' Really, Thorns wasn't trying to be mean. He was just tired of Nico strolling around like he owned the place.

[P r o m i s e r]

"Look you house-pet! Nico has gone through too much to even survive the-" I interrupted Linus, and hissed at him. "Don't call my friend a house-pet!" I snarled at him, then turned to Thorns and drew my lip into a snarl. "I was a kit, Thorns. I was 3 moons, and I tried to save my family. But Aurath ended up murdering my parents, and nearly killing me, then leaving me to die." I explained calmly, trying to stay cool with Thorns. "I bet you would want revenge on a cat that could have killed your family. Aurath was a murderous cat. Blood-thirsty, and lurked for power." I meowed, trying to reason with Thorns.
"As for you Linus! Nobody gave you the right to speak to Thorns in such a way!" I hissed.

[Blackberry]

A wave of guilt rushed over Thorns, and he muttered, 'Sorry, Nico.'

[Blackberry]

(Logging off for the night! Bye!)

[P r o m i s e r]

"Its alright Thorns. I didn't want to kill Aurath, but the guilt and regret of my parents took over my mind. I cant bare to remember how I saw them last. R-Ripped to shreads..." I whispered the last part, closing my eyes as memories washed over. "He killed my best friend to. His name was Max." I meowed lightly, in regret.
"Max was a good cat. He lived with us when we were younger, and then Aurath with one slash of the claws, Max's chest was ripped open." Linus added, his silver eyes shining in sorrow.

[Blackberry]

Thorns leaped down from the tree and stood in front of Nico, but avoided Aurath's limp body. 'I apologize," he said. 'I have judged you. I have treated you as an enemy, and not as a friend. I wish for us to be friends.'

[horsegodess]

(going on plane in a few hours!)

Sasha followed Thorns down the tree and stood next to him.

(sorry not in the thinking mood)

[P r o m i s e r]

"Its alright, Thorns. Its because your not used to seeing these kind of things." I answered, touching my nose to his then to Sasha's. "And I accept your wish to be friends." I added, with a smile, my green gaze tresting on his.

[Blackberry]

My eyes brightened, and I let out a faint purr. 'Thanks, Nico,' I mouthed.

[P r o m i s e r]

I purred back, my tail lashing to one side. "Your welcome, Thorns. If you want, your still welcome to live as an alley Cat." I meowed, my emerald gaze gleaming with hope. Thorns may not be able to talk, but I could understand him, and he looked to be willing to live on the streets.
Though he may need to have someone teach him a bit about the wild areas.

[P r o m i s e r]

Eh, Bump?
