~a fallen foe~

[Cerberus]

Cerberus felt the slight joy as he watched Stripeclaw. "Oh. You poor little thing. You remind me of my young child. Of course, I never smashed her paws- I crushed her nose and ripped her ears. Hmmph. I believe they'll be firmly broken, but we can keep you here for a while." He stepped on one rock, watching in satisfaction as it sank in deeper. Stripeclaw was going to try and hold his dignity and keep his silence. Cerberus knew that- he just loved watching the creature try. "Thanks for the information, creature." He lunged forward- that was when he actually ripped his claws down Stripeclaw's back repeatedly, until blood oozed, and he looked in satisfaction as the cat remained trapped- Cerberus even licked the blood off, his tongue hard and painful. "Hmm. Your blood tasted quite tangy."

He looked at the rotting corpse, yawning a bit. He chewed on it, shrugging. "Hmm. Not half bad." He gobbled it down, wolfing it down carelessly like a hungry vulture. He chewed, feeling the pleasant taste wash over his tongue. Hmm. Cat flesh... so delicious.

He looked at the cat. "Now, go ahead and tell me everything you know about the other clans. Go ahead. I'm listening..."

Stripeclaw gasped for air as the rock dug deeper into his paw. Still he kept quiet deciding not to speak out. He felt his blood running down his back. The Leader of Iceclan is Glacierstar, the Deputy is Wolfsong, and the Medicine Cat is Fatewind. He hissed.

[Cerberus]

Cerberus nodded. "Go ahead, go ahead. Music to my ears. Hmm. More like a screeching symphony. I've heard better rhapsodies from dying wolves..." He had to admit, Cerberus considered every wolf's howl a piece of music. His? His was a haunting requiem of death. Old Cyclops basically, to Cerberus, had an icy call that chilled veins, Ena had a pure, seductively innocent howl, and each wolf had their own song.

He looked rather bored, putting his other forepaw on the other rock and pressing it down more. "Hmm. I know that you know more. Give me specifics. Every single thing that you've learned about the other clans. What their leaders are like. What their weaknesses are. Go ahead, little cat-slave, tell the Blood Lord all that you know."

[Glitterpaw/\Krakatua/\]

Stripeclaw narrowed his eyes. Why should I continue to give you this information? There is an apprentice in Iceclan who's mother was killed by a wolf. Stubtail, my brother a warrior in Forestclan, is more like an kit then a warrior yet he still is strong. He hissed.

[Cerberus]

Cerberus perked his ears up cheerfully. "Oh. An apprentice, hmm? I killed a mother cat, once. She told me that this 'Iceclan' was more important to her than her own life. Yes. Yes. I chewed her up, shot her back out, let her die, and then I chomped her down. How does that sound?" He spat, literally, in Stripeclaw's face. Beads of sweat dangled from the maniacal wolf's jowls, his blood-crusted fangs menacing and perfectly aligned as foul, rancid breath escaped from his throat.

"You need to tell me, because otherwise, you'll be right in my belly with your friend." He laughed in a good-natured way... if you could call it good-natured, and he paced around the cat hypnotically, keenly focused on sensing the angered deputy's pain. "You amuse me, cat. Maybe I'll make your death a little less painful once you give me all the information. You won't be fed at all, you know..."

[Glitterpaw/\Krakatua/\]

I can go without eating for a while. He hissed calmly. He took a breath before continueing. As for the death of the queen, if that suits you then it is fine with me. He sneered. So what else do you wish to know about??

[Cerberus]

"Ah. I want to know a lot of things, but I won't ask anything right now. You have a spitfire little attitude, kitty. That's what I'll let you sit here for a while." He laughed, padding off, back to Blood Hill.

He howled quickly, "Dessy, have fun with our little friend!" He ran away, swift as a bullet, and laughing like a mad kookaburra.

[`Avvy]

A smile lingered on her face long after he was gone. Looknig down on the cat was something she enjoyed.... no remorse was felt at leading this cat here. He, after all, had basically called for death when he came into their territory... a single drop of rain landed on her shredded ear, and she looked up, smirking. Cats hated water, didn't they? This one would spend the night in the rain...... but what if it escaped? after all ,the rain would loosen the soil around the cat, wouldn't it? Smile turned to scowl the more she thought of it. Well, it looked like she would be spending the night in the rain, as well. Though under a tree, at least. Moving away to a nearby tree, she lay down underneath it, and stared at the cat. Single lyric was thrown for him, tune mocking and nasty.

Comfy?

[Glitterpaw/\Krakatua/\]

Stripeclaw watched Cerberus leave. The rain dropped carelessly onto his back. He sat as if he were sitting vigil. Not moving an inch. His muslces twitched underneath his pelt. He didn't reply to the she-wolf. He watched her move off. His eyes narrowed as he refused to fall asleep. Goodnight! He sneered.

[Glitterpaw/\Krakatua/\]

+A slim smal figure traveled quickly in the shadows. Her form was hidden from view as the rain obscured one's vision. Her paws pulled her forawrd to the cat. Revealling fangs she gripped each rock. Pulling it off she went to the next. Until all rocks were removed from the feline. Her gaze was harsh as she narrowed her eyes. "This is your only chance to run!"She growled. The tom stood and ignored the pain. Turning he ran back to Emberclan. Krakatua turnd to face the wolf. She knew the wrath would come. And was confused at her kindness but she would deal with that later. Stripeclaw was free. His form slide through the undergrowth. His paws ached and his mind raced. He would not stop until he was safe.+

OOC:*Ok I was getting bored and needed to play Krakatua so you can get angry at her for letting the prisoner escape*
