What Really Happened:
"Rain, climb the tree!" screeched the she-cat as she hurtled herself at the young dog. It dislodged her with a flick of its tail, but she still shielded her brother form it's jaws. He was badly injured, bleeding from his throat and tail.
"Get up!" she demanded. "Rain!" He shook his head.
"Feather…I-I can't…"
"You can!"
"My leg is broken!"
"Perfect!" she hissed, grabbing his scruff. "Just drag yourself to that tree. You don't need hind legs to climb!" she commanded, voice muffled by black fur.
"Yes, I do!"
"Just get away from these dogs!!"
Rain flattened his ears and tried to crawl to the shelter of a narrow hole, too narrow for the dogs to pass through. However one noticed him and bounded over. Rain gave a screech and hid his head but the dog grabbed him by his back. He hung limply in its grasp.
"You mouse-brained idiot!" yowled his sister. "Do I hafta do the fighting for both of us here?!" She batted at the dog's snout and took off running when he released her brother.
"Rain-get-up-or-I'll-claw-you're-ears-off!" she spat out every word like poison. Rain tried to run to the edge of a cliff, and Feather followed. But so did the dogs. "Back off!"
Feather bristled, but inside she was shaking. "He could have snapped your spine!" she yelled to her brother. Rain looked embarrassed despite everything. Then his pupils grew larger and he opened his mouth to say something, but his jaw hung there motionless. Feather turned only to see large black eyes staring into hers, full of hunger and death.
"Oh…" whispered Feather."Hello there." The dog reared his head back and let out a long howl. Feather turned tail and ran, paws skidding to make sure she didn't fall off the cliff.
"Feather, what do we do?!" Rain's frightened yowl rang out.
"Jump!" instructed the she-cat.
"What-"
"JUMP!"
"I don't want to-" his sentence never finished. Feather pushed her brother into the river and jumped herself, paralyzed with fear.
It was a long, long way down.
