Flames from a two-leg bon-fire lapped at the starless sky. Other than the occasional night bird that would call out and the crackle of the burning wood, it was a quiet night. Two flame colored disks appeared from the
bushes glaring at the fire, they were eyes of a cat. It crept along the hedge line; it's long shadow dancing on the bushes. Eyes flitting back and forth, it seemed it expected to be attacked at any moment. A pair of two-legs
kept an eye on the fire from their nest, but they were no threat to the feline. Suddenly another cat jumped from the bracken in front of the first cat, snarling.
" How dare you come back!" it was a she-cat, her claws glinted red from the firelight.
" How dare you challenge me!" the first feline yowled, clearly a tom, and leaped at the she-cat. She dodged his deadly jaws that skimmed her shoulder, pouncing on him, her eyes glaring red. "I vowed to kill you if I ever
saw you again. Your actions were unforgivable!" she bristled her flame-colored pelt with fury.
"Do you still miss him?" the tom growled as she pinned him to the ground, her paw to his neck. Shutting her eyes tight, she tried to fight the grief that flooded her mind, so she replaced it with pure hatred. The tom knew he
could easily overtake his attacker, but he enjoyed torturing the ginger cat with memories. But before he could get up, the she-cat meowed through gritted teeth. " Though this will not bring grief." with a deep bite to his
neck, the she-cat ended the cruel tom's life. She stepped off the body, silhouetted against the blood-red flames that reached into the midnight sky, she meowed, her eyes downcast on the corpse.
" One less traitor in this world." With that she padded into the darkness, leaving the body for the crows.
