Shrewstar struck Emberkit over the head, "Foolish Ember." he spat, but he turned back to them silken and cruel. "Now, lets find an agreement..." He switched his vile yellow gaze between them and he smiled wickedly. For a moment he was silent just staring and grinning like a kit who has just had his most brilliant plan to escape the camp.
"Maybe we can exchange, say, a life for a life." he purred, but there was no cheerfulness in his voice.

Blueefire quavered. A life for a life? Whos life... She opened her mouth to speak but shut it quickly. She took a half step, so her fur was pressad up against Owlstar's. She glowered at Shrewstar, but looked back down to her daughter. HOlding her gaze she didn't move.
Emberkit hid a scoff, his parents belived him? Mmm..... Maybe the truly didn't know him as well as it seemed. Shrugging he sat down curious about how this 'arangement' was going to work out.

Owlstar bristled visibly. He bared his teeth, "You took our sister's life, Emberkit's and now you wish to kill another cat for your own greedy ways!" he snarled, but he focused on the cat that was supposedly called "Ember" his green eyes intensified like fire searching ones inner being. Creeping into the nooks and crannies of your soul and stealing away with information and curiosity.
The ginger cat bristled but he lifted his head up his green eye leaving the brown kit. His shoulders were squared with a regal look of importance and power. "But if it comes to it sacrifice my own life to you." he hissed.
Shrewstar grinned gleefully, and stood up and stepped on the Sapphirekit's throat. His tail lashed happily, and he gurgled deep in his throat. "Who said I was going to kill you?" he purred, his grin broadening to reveal yellow teeth. "I want your pretty little kitty to kill you, Blueefire."

Emberkit smiled, he thought this a wonderful idea. He cast a taunting glance at Blueefire and Owlstar with a sneer. This was going to be fun. Curling hsi tail around his small paws he watched with a flick of ears.
Blueefire let out a snarl, her silence ended. "Never you flea-bag! I'd much rather you tear me to parts than kill him!"

Owlstar let out a shaky sigh and looked around with anxiety gleaming in his green eye. He turned toward Blueefire, and he lowered his head and crouched low. His whiskers were drooping, and he flattened his ears against his skull. "End it quick." he murmured, pulling a brave face for everyone's sake.
Shrewstar was roaring with cruel laughter, "Yes end it swiftly! And I'll rip out his throat and rub this kits face in it!" He sank his claws into the she-kit's throat, his echoing.

Blueefire hissed at Shrewstar but she looked downwards at her daughter. Then she glowered back at her mate. If she pushed Shrewstar he would kill Sapphirekit. But she couldn't harm her mate, either way she lost. If she killed Owlstar, Shrewstar might be bluffing and not release their daughter. But i he wasn't and Sapphirekit was returned to her and Owlstar dead...she would live with the fact that she killed her mate... her happiness her joy.
But if she didn't, Sapphirekit would die. And two of her kits would be gone becase of that bloody, fox driven mad, murderer. She would have to choose...
Emberkit closed his eyes, his mother killing his father! Opening his eyex again he waited for her choice, but it wasn't hard to guess. He slunk out his tiny claws in anticipation.
Blueefire gritted her teeth. Biting back tears that were forming she looked to SHrewstar "You will release her," She wasn't certain if it was a question or a demand. Turning away she went over to Owlstar, putting a paw on his back and her jowls by the back of his neck. "I am sorry..." she mewed to him. She bent down her teeth bared she prepared to snap his neck.

Owlstar's heart pounded, he had seen his lived pass before the eyes of Starclan, he gritted his teeth waiting for the sickening crunch of his own neck. The coldness of death consuming that was left of his reign....
Sunkit's paws plodded against the ground, he had confronted his most terrible of fears, and he was racing to find his parents. He had felt his whiskers prickle as they set out he somehow knew something was going to go wrong. He pushed through the brambles and his keen green eyes could see the foreboding shape of his so called uncle or how he was described, and in his sister in his grasp.
The small tom felt a surge of bravado, and he quickened his fleet footed pace. He broke through the brush and he took a flying leap and he grasped his claws into the face of his uncle. He yowled a battle cry, and clung to the cat's face.
Shrewstar yowled in surprise and he leaped up with front paws and threw the kit away from him but for a brief moment his claws were not on the kit.
Sunkit felt himself crash on the trunk of the tree and he lay limp of the forest floor. His foot twitched slightly, and his eyes were narrowed to small slits.

Blueefire was surprised at whatever attacked Shrewstar but for the moment she didn't care. Pushing her self away from Owlstar, with one paw was on him she pushed off and darted towards her kit. Slidding over she grabbed Sapphirekit's scruff and wheeled back over to Owlstar where she dropped her kit between them and peered at thing that attacked Shrewstar. It wasn't a thing, it was her son, Sunkit!
Emberkit was flabbergasted by what happened squirming back to the shadows he watched with narrow eyes trying to figure how Sunkit had appeared so quickly.

Owlstar leaped up from his submissive crouch and charged toward his brother. With nothing holding him back and he leaped forward and dug his claws into Shrewstar's shoulders. The ginger tom raged with unearthly fury, and he used his superior weight to take down the gray cat. His fangs flashed and he hit deep as he sank his fangs deep into Shrewstar's paw. The warrior thrashed his head about, causing even more damage.
The Riverclan cat couldn't help relishing the blood as it leaked into his gaping mouth. The rusty taste melted on his tongue, and it seemed to bring up something called the Blood Rage.
Shrewstar shrieked and thrashed about, causing quite a commotion. He tried to rip himself away but he could see something that made his heart skip a beat. A red film seemed to overrule his brother's natural green color. He screeched in response to what was happening.
Sunkit lay limp between the gnarled roots of the tree. His breathing was shallow from the impact but his small mind was racing. The kit inside of him, shrieked with agony of hitting the hard bark. But something forced him to his aching paws. His vision was bleary and unfocused but he new the shapes of his parents.
The was a larger build of a cat that seemed to be attacking another slimmer cat, and at a distant he could make out his mother's slighter form. Instinct drove him to hobble and stumble in that direction, a painful mewl trying to get her attention.

Emberkit spat in frustration. His father was aout to be killed, but that was all changed. Now Owlstar was attacking Shrewstar, and Blueefire had Sapphirekit. As always he was left in the dark. Taking a few swift strides he retreated back to the shadows were he could watch.
Blueefire looked over to the mewling "Sunkit!" she shrieked, horror, relief, panic all at the same time. She started towards him but she couldn't leave Sapphirekit from her grasp for even a moment, darting backwords she grabbed her daughter's scruff and scurried over to Sunkit. Dropping Sapphirekit beside SUnkit she crouched by them watching Owlstar.

Owlstar pushed his brother down onto the ground his jaws snapped at his throat, but each tiome he missed as Shrewstar jerked just out of reach. They were an equal match of power and intelligence. But Owlstar was older, and larger but that didn't make him the better in the ling run.
Shrewstar howled in fury, he was getting more panicked and angered each time his brother went for his throat and this had to end before their energy was sapped from the grasp of their rage. He launched himself from on his back and latched his own teeth into Owlstar's throat. He rolled the ginger tom over, and ripped his claws down his brother's chest.
Blood welled from the wounds and he snarled, his claws sank deeper. But he could feel the painful sting of claws piercing the skin on his shoulder. He hissed through the blood that was welling in his mouth.

Blueefire took in a sharp breathe, the frozen air stinging her lungs. Turning around she mewed urgently to her kits, "Get into the underbrough no matter what you hear don't come out till your father or I get you..." she paused for a moment "Keep a watch for Ember," Whipping around she charged back to the clearing her mind racing franticly as she guessed what to do.
Owlstar didn't have time, from the postion Shrewstar had Owlstar. Hissing she launched her self forward at the gray tom, hitting his flank. She sunk her claws in, her anger flaring up inside of her.
Emberkit hissed, he stalked through the bushes heading twoards Sunkit and Sapphirekit. He couldn't risk both of them knowing who he was. Letting his voice drop to a whisper as he gazed at the gray form of Sapphirekit he hissed "Remember tell no one, and I'll leave you alone," with that he whipped back through the trees.

Owlstar gasped, but it ended in a choked gurgle. Blood welled sickeningly at the deathly wound inflicted upon his scarred neck. A vile puddle of crimson liquid was slowly gathering beneath his battered body as his life force drained away steadily.
He let out a choked meowed, and his single green eye rolled into the back of his head. His foot twitched spasmodically. He groped at the blood soaked ground, he could just feel the earth stealing his life away to cling their own lives.
The ginger tom felt wasted and he laboriously rolled onto his stomach, he gagged on the rusty taste flooding his mouth. Owlstar heaved himself to his blood stained paws, and he swayed his head from side to side, he could see his mate fighting his brother and he nearly collapsed from pure exhaustion.
His chest heaved, and his breath grew shallow and agony surged from his wounds. With his chest slashed, and his throat torn open, his eyes glittered with stars. He felt the agony, it was so real and fiery, that he barely felt its tightening grip, like it was someone others pain.
Shrewstar howled in rage, and he twisted about and raked his wicked claws down her shoulder. His tail was fluffed up twice its size, and he was bristling all over. The vile tom cat snarled, and he backed away and started circling Blueefire his spine bent in a arch.
"I will kill you, and your entire family!" he threatened, spitting at her face. "And I'll kill Owlstar, and you! But first I'll finish you, and if that would doesn't kill my brother, this will!" He laughed maniacally.

Blueefire snarled at the threat to her family, "You killed one of my kits, and kit-napped the other." She spat, while turning with him refusing to show her back to him. "I thought you were smarter than this Shrewstar, " she sneered her voice filled with seething hate, "Killing a queen's kit, kitnapping one and than nearly killing her mate! You underestimate me."
With out another word she charged forwards, knowling if she leaped he could doger easier. At least if he dodged know she could turn with him.

Shrewstar leaded the charge with a crazed face, and leaped high into the air and he pressed his paws to the top of her skull. He stopped in mid air to collapse onto his back. He laughed recklessly and he leaned over and whispered into her as his claws sank into her back. "I am the master of murder.... and you will be dead my sunrise..." he breathed.
