Macavity slowly turned around.
"Where's my daughter?" Munkustrap's voice was deadly.
Macavity eyed him and spat on the ground, "Your daughter?" He repeated, putting an emphasis on 'your', "You seem to have forgotten that that's my flesh and fur you're talking about." Macavity got up in his face, "My blood."
Munkustrap couldn't stand it. He lunged at the criminal but he was too fast. Macavity jumped to the side and Munkustrap landed a face full of dirt, "You don't deserve a daughter like her." He hissed, getting back up and taking another leap at Macavity, "You don't deserve a daughter."
Macavity growled and swiped his claws across the side of Munkustrap's face before he could get to him, leaving behind three bleeding gashes, "You have no right to judge what you don't understand."
But Munkustrap was also quick. Without flinching at the wound, he whipped around and pinned Macavity to the ground, " I understand completely."
Macavity drew his knees up to his chest and kicked Munkustrap hard in the stomach. Munkustrap flew to the ground, gasping for air. He tasted the thick, salty, metal liquid in his mouth and spat it on the ground. Macavity took advantage of the moment and landed his claws on Munkustrap's back, forcing him to the ground. As the sky got darker, a light drizzle behind to fall, causing the blood to seep down Munkustrap's face. He starred hard at Macavity and punched his paw in his chest, cracking a rib bone. Macavity fell backwards but ignored the shock wave of pain jetting through his body and threw Munkustrap into a tree. Munkustrap coughed up more blood and fell to the dirt in pain. Water and blood fell to the ground and dampened the grass beneath the two cats as the rain quickly began to pick up.
Macavity's breath became laboured as the broken rib began to take its toll. Munkustrap got up slowly but Macavity punched him hard again and threw him back onto the ground. But this time Munkustrap didn't move. He just lay there, his chest moving slowly. Macavity glared hard at the tabby and slowly pulled his sharpest claw across Munkustrap's face. The same spot he did on Demeter. The skin separated and blood soon trickled to the ground.
The rain grew harder with every second that passed by. A bolt of lighting screamed through the clouds and erupted into a show of light and sound. The sound of the water crashing down on the trees and grass nearby filled Munkustrap's head as he slowly opened his eyes.
Macavity winced as the sharp pain to his side increased. He took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. Munkustrap got up, fighting the pain as best he could. He tried to concentrate on where it hurt the most to put that out of his mind, but Munkustrap couldn't get up. He quickly fell back onto the ground, which only added to the pain in his chest. Macavity slowly walked up to him and looked at him carefully.
Munkustrap drew his eyes up to him and opened up his mouth weakly as if to say something. But before he could get out a word, a loud, distressed scream echoed throughout the forest, disrupting the sound of the rain hitting the ground.
Macavity looked around frantically as he realized what the sound was. Munkustrap knew it too. It was Makkenzie.
Macavity took one last glance down at Munkustrap who was drifting in and out of consciousness.
"Go." He breathed, "Go save your daughter."
And with that, his eyes slowly closed and Macavity began to run.
He ran deep into the forest. He bit his lip harder and harder every time his paws touched the ground. Another streak of lightning shot across the dark sky as Macavity ran. He ran as fast as he could. Blood crested the top of his lip but Macavity continued to withdraw the pain. Every breath he took created a shock of pain inside his lungs. But Macavity ignored it.
He ran faster and faster every time his body told him to stop. Another scream sounded but this time it was closer. Much closer. Macavity soon came to a large clearing in the forest where a cat was lying on the ground covered in blood. Macavity recognized the motionless cat as Makkenzie and rushed to her side. He looked around for the source of the blood and found two large fang marks in her right shoulder that were bleeding freely. Macavity examined the wounds carefully. They were very deep and had been opened not too long ago.
Makkenzie suddenly picked her head up and saw Macavity. Shee tried to get up but fell back down. "Get out of here! Now!" She cried, "It was a trap!"
As if on cue, a huge gray and back wolf emerged from the shadows and threw Macavity across the clearing, breaking another rib. Macavity stumbled back up and leaped on the wolf, sinking his sharp clawing into it's skin. The wolf let out a cry and threw itself to ground, almost crushing Macavity.
He rolled out of the way in pain, "Makkenzie! Go! Run!" Macavity screamed at her as the wolf slashed its claws across Macavity's already injured chest.
Makkenzie starred at the wolf in shock. She couldn't move.
"GO!" Macavity leaped up and pushed Makkenzie back towards where Munkustrap was, "Now!"
Makkenzie tried to run but two more wolves stopped her from going anywhere. Macavity threw himself on one that was completely black and bit his hind leg all the way through. The wolf howled in pain and the other gray wolf standing next to it grabbed Macavity and threw him into a tree.
Makkenzie darted away from the scene in terror, leaving Macavity with the three wolves.
He got back up and vaulted to the side as a wolf tried to bite him. It snapped its jaws wildly in the air. But when Macavity landed on the ground he toppled over in pain. He tried to get back up but he couldn't move. His body wouldn't let him. Macavity tried as hard as he could to fight back the pain but the more he struggled and greater it became. He let out a cry of distress as his lungs began to tighten up. He felt the broken ribs start to throb. It felt like they were on fire. Macavity couldn't move. Every time he breathed he felt like a million pins were being jammed into his chest. He soon grew tired and gave up fighting.
Macavity lay there motionless as the wolves cornered in on him.

I would have added on to this chapter but then it would have been over four pages so I'll just save the rest for the next chapter. evil grin Yeah, this chapter was pretty gory. But that just makes it all the better. Poor Macavity. I liked him. I don't know if he should die or not. Hmm…decisions, decisions. Well, whatever the case, you'll just have to find out in the next chapter. And the only way to read the next chapter is to review! (hint,hint) Well, not really but it does give you something to think about! (HINT,HINT) Wait, I already used that line...oh well. It seemed to work.
