"Torkan?" Lonisha walked along the all to familiar pier to where her brother sat at the end of once again. She sat down next to him, letting her legs dangle over the side.
"How's you head?" he mumbled as he threw another stone into the river. Lonisha fiddled with the new bandage that was wrapped tightly around her head.
"It's okay, Mom took a look and she said just to keep an eye on it"
"Where's dad?"
"He and Steiner are out looking for what ever attacked you"
Torkan nodded and continued throwing stones.
"How's your eye?" she hesitated slightly. Torkan sighed,
"No better.."
Lonisha placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, "It'll be okay". Torkan raised his hand and placed it on hers.
"It'll only be okay once I've found and slaughtered those people who are after us" he stated, smiling slightly.
"You scare me sometimes" Loni smiled. Torkan turned to her,
"You up for a walk?"
Loni shrugged, "I guess".
Torkan rose to his feet, offering a hand to his sister, which she took gratefully.
"Where are we gonna go?"
"I was thinking somewhere away from the castle"
Lonisha came to a halt, "But, Dad said we aren't aloud outside, not until they come back"
"Well.." Torkan grinned as he came to the hedge that marked to edge of the castle boundaries, "He's not here to stop us, now is he?" He pulled the tightly woven branches aside to Loni could squeeze through.
Lonisha sighed and crawled through, waiting for her brother on the other side.
"Do you have to disobey him all the time?" She helped pulled him up.
"Only when he lays down stupid rules that make me feel as if I'm living in a maximum security prison," Torkan grumbled as he began climbing down the stonewall, into the alleyway below.
"He's only trying to protect us, Torkan" Lonisha stated 'matter-of-factly'. Torkan rolled his eyes as he landed in the ground, holding his hands up to assist his much more clumsier sister. He grasped her waist and lifted her down with ease. She dusted her self off as Torkan began to walk down the alley.
"Hey! Wait up!" she called, running after him.
"SHHH!" he whipped around, hand pressed to his lips.
"..what?.." she crept up behind him. He had stopped at a junction to another alley, looking one way, his brow deeply furrowed in thought.
"What is it?" she elbowed him in the side.
"Ack!, Loni!" he hushed, pointing down the other alley. Lonisha looked to see a familiar looking, small figure. It was slouching down, keeping a low profile against the shadows.
Lonisha gasped, "That's the thi.!!" she was cut off by Torkan slapping has hand around her mouth, glaring at her as if to say 'Shut up!'. Slowly releasing her mouth, he gestured for her to follow him. They slowly crept along the other alley, following the dark figures steps. Coming to a dead end, Torkan quickly grabbed Lonisha and swept in behind a large waist bin by the wall.
~*~
"YOU IMBOSILE!" the larger Kat bellowed at the small dark Kat.
"I-i'm s-sorry sir.." the littler one cowered, a sweet females voice.
"Torkan.."
"Shhh!" Torkan turned around and hushed Lonisha, "Just listen" he turned back.
"You were supposed to get the MALE! Not the bloody FEMALE!" it bellowed again.
"H-he was too quick for me, even with a bandage hindering his sight, he still knew I w-was there" the little one explained.
"You Stupid She-Kat! I knew I should've gotten Doen to do it..." the large one slapped a paw over his face.
"S-sir? Where is Doen?"
"Last I saw him, he was with some girl. Who knows where he is now" the large one shrugged.
"I'm right here, Karratoc"
Lonisha recognised the voice. It was the Kat she threw the sweet at. He was crouching on a roof, directly above the larger kat.
"Doen!" the larger one bellowed yet again, "Get your skinny arse down here!"
Doen leapt straight down between the other two kats and dusted himself off slightly, "Now Karratoc, watch your language in front of a lady" he smiled slightly as he continued dusting.
"What bloody lady!" Karratoc sneered, looking at the littler one whom looked dumbfounded. Doen looked up and pointed where Tork and Loni were hiding.
"The one crouched down behind her brother, behind the waist bin" he stated.
"WHAT!?!" Karratoc screeched as he leapt straight over to the waist bin and thrust it up into the air, only to have it fall directly on the smaller kats head. Torkan leant protectively over Lonisha who had fallen back in fright.
"Brim! YOU IDIOT! You led them RIGHT TO US!!" Karratoc growled loudly.
"N-no! I was sure no-one f-followed me!" Brim barked back.
"Obviously not sure enough" Doen commented, smirking.
"Shut your hole, Doen! If you'd done the job in the f-first place, n-none of this woulda happened!" Brim turned to Doen, shaking her clenched paw at him.
"Don't you turn this on me, She-Kat! You volunteered!" Doen spat back.
"SHUT UP!" Karratoc yelled at them, "We'll finish 'em both off RIGHT NOW!" he turned back to find an empty space. Looking up, he saw the two royal twins bolting down the alley. "GET THEM!!" He yelled as he ran after them and extraordinary speed for something so big.
"Already on it!" Brim called from the rooftops as she leapt from one to another, hoping to cut them off. Doen stayed where he was, grinning.
"Idiots.." he shook his head as he pulled out a small vile that looked much like the one that shattered on Lonisha's head.
"Always doing it the hard way. Still, I hope this works.." he raised his paws and clamped them over the vile, mumbling what sounded like a spell,
"Encantem ak TorLatte MatenDay.." he continued as the vile began to glow an eary blue-silver colour.
