Spottedstorm watched Bloodfeather curiously, then seeing her intention yowled "Depthgaze! Above you!"

Depthgaze heard the warning and simply leapt off the side of the branch. Beating his wings, he rose far above the tree, out of range.

Sharkfang lept onto the assassin's body and let his teeth sink deep into Ripred's throat. The sap tasted vile, but the life of the cat was worth the taste. Ripred gasped for air, but Sharkfang's teeth constricted his breathing. The bloodstained cat made an odd gulping sound as he lost yet another life. This battle was over for him. Ripred: 4 lives ~ 4 to start ~ 1 from Azuregaze ~ 1 from Willowclaw ~ 1 lost to Shiningstream ~ 1 lost to Sharkfang

Spottedstorm started clawing her way up the tree, coming to the aid of Depthgaze.

Bloodfeather gasped softly and her blood-red eyes widened. Trying to ease the fall she skidded from branch to branch, trying to hold on with her sharp claws. She fell through the air, a cold wind blowing through her beautiful pelt. The she-cat was terrified. Not only for herself, but for the lifeless Ripred on the ground.

Depthgaze dove, landing on Ripred as he came back to life. His teeth met in the cat's throat, and, filled with anger, he began to tear a bite from the cat. And then another and another.

Shiningstream's legs ached. Beginning to support Sharkfang with her shoulder, she croaked, "Is he gone?" Her voice was shaky and barely audible, with nothing left but to watch and unsheathe her claws to prepare herself. "If Ripred has more lives, we'll be ready." But Shiningstream knew the answer. It was all over for Ripred.

Ripred wheezed as Depthgaze landed on him. He hissed at him before the warrior bit into his neck, but was cut off as he lost his fouth life. As the number of his lives decreased, he gained strength and when he was concious again, he flung Depthgaze off of him and stood to face several cats, that he was sure, would like to see him dead. Sharkfang took a few steps back as the assassin stood. Where was he getting the strength from? he thought Ripred: 3 lives ~ 4 to start ~ 1 from Azuregaze ~ 1 from Willowclaw ~ 1 lost to Shiningstream ~ 1 lost to Sharkfang ~ 1 lost to Depthgaze

Shiningstream lunged again Ripred. Her limbs were boiling madly, but she knew the case. When Ripred died, everything would be normal again. No... she reminded herself. Hopeheart...

Knowing she was falling too fast to stop the fall, Bloodfeather used her claws to grab onto a few branches; using them to slow down her falling. She fell almost invisble in the cold, dark night. Eventually hitting the ground after skidding in the dust a few tail-lengths, she coughed up blood. Pain was sent through her body but she knew she needed to get up. Holding back tears, she tried to force her small body to rise. Shaking on her paws, she panted quietly.

Ripred lashed out his claws and raked them down Shiningstream's side as she flew past him. He began to regain his focus and he saw Wolfbane, his capturer, at the edge of the clearing. He's next. Ripred thought with a grin. He lunged at the cat, but forgot about his leg. His jump was awkward, but he still came at Wolfbane with a heavy force. Wolfbane was tumbled over and he began exerting all his strength into warding off Ripred's attacks.

Depthgaze watched from the side, exhausted.

Spottedstorm, seeing her chance, leapt down the few tail-lenghs onto Bloodfeather's back, claws unsheathed.

Gasping with both pain and anguish, Shiningstream had her eyes wide and unbelievable. Anyone but Wolfbane... Wolfbane was an honorable warrior. "No!" Running after him, she looked to Sharkfang. "Let's go!"
