((I play almost all of the side characters... But okay I guess :/ And you called them both 'paws xD))

The DarkClan cat was hiding up in a tree, prepared to pounce down on the travelling SnowClan cats.

((I actually have an idea involving him.))

"Why don't we split up? We'll cover more ground," Cottonshade suggested. "If we find anything, just yell and the others will come?"

The tom still waited in the trees. Things seemed to be going as planned.

"Don't doubt me," Riddlepaw mewed. "Ask Cottonshade what happens when you doubt me." The last words came out more as a hiss than anything. "I'll go this way," she mewed. She didn't even give the toms time to respond.

The cat awaiting the SnowClan cats wasn't overly-sized. He was on the large side, yes, and quite strong, but not badger-sized. Then a small lilac tabby and white she-cat came in to his sight.

((Okay.))

"Like?" Cloudrumble huddled her kits closer to her belly.

"You make one noise and I kill you." Two paws forced Riddlepaw off of her feet. "Now, you're going to do exactly as I tell you." The apprentice twisted under him, her eyes wide in terror. "I said you do what I tell you," he growled, swiping unsheathed claws across her face. The tom grabbed her by the scruff and carried her away from where the toms were.

"W-what are you doing?" Riddlepaw whimpered as the tom flung her against a tree. "Did I say to speak?" He growled. "Did I say you could kitnap me?" The she-cat growled back, only to receive another blow to her face. Blood was leaking out of both sets of cuts now.

"Get over here. Now." The dark brown tabby's piercing green eyes narrowed at the small apprentice, who followed his order a second too late. He lashed out at her again, though this time she managed to avoid the blow. "Crouch," he ordered. Riddlepaw gave him a confused look.

"I'll do it myself them, you pathetic excuse for a cat." His paws forced her shoulders down, he had her trapped. "L-let go," Riddlepaw mewed, trying to struggle out of the tom's hold. No avail, though.

And next thing she knew, she was being r.ped.

What had she gotten herself in to?

The tom tossed Riddlepaw tot he side, where she curled up in to a ball. "You think you're a match for me?" He growled.

At the same moment. Cottonshade lept at the DarkClan tom. "How dare you touch my daughter," he growled as his claws raked down the tom's face. Outnumbered now, the tom was taken by surprise. He clawed at the tom's however.

The DarkClan tom's throat got slashed, but not before he made a strong, deep blow to the side of Zestyclaw's face. Cottonshade continued to claw at him relentlessly until he was long past dead, growling and hissing the whole time.
