ON TO THE STORY
Twist gaped. "What? But I didn't do it!"
Flamer thrust his head to the clouds. "Exile!"
Two cats, Twig and Crow, began shoving her out the entrance. "I have nowhere to go!"
(Hate to butt in, but if any of you have seen the Lion King II, you understand where I'm referencing this scene from xD I can imagine the Glass Squad singing, "He is not one of us" xD)
Flamer narrowed his eyes. "All the more punishment."
"No!" Echo tried bounding forward, but a cat grabbed her scruff. (Balto reference xD)
Multiple cats lunged at Twist, snapping furiously at her with glistening white fangs. "Get out of here!" one spat.
"Leave our kits alone!" growled another.
Mindy stayed on her garbage can. "Go! Run away, and never return!"
Echo tried leaping forwards again, but was blocked by her Squadmates.
Rikah broke through the line. "You idiots! You only see one side of the story!"
Flamer turned his gaze to Rikah. "And you just so happen to know the other?"
"That Twist is innocent!" When most cats only bared their teeth, he added, "And that you are a collection of naïve cowards!"
At this, Flamer yowled. "Attack!"
The entire Squad piled on top of the huge, gray tom. Echo and Yarrow screeched, trying to dig through the mound of writhing claws. "No!" Twist shrieked in a drawn out yowl of anguish. Leaping forward, she was knocked down by Torch.
"You are no longer one of us. Leave before we claim your life as well!"
Twist thrashed, trying to catch his muzzle with her claws. How dare he accuse her of such wrongs? She had nothing, and now he concurs with the idea to kill Rikah, just because he stood up for her! "Don't kill him!" she sobbed. "He's like a brother to me!"
Torch thrust his face into hers. "It is the will of our leader, as well as mine!" He cut her across the nose. She let out a moan of pain. Torch held her down as claws slashed and fangs gnashed, Rikah the subject of it.
Suddenly, the Squad crept away. There lay the bloody, battered body of Rikah. He let out a few gasps. Twist tore away from Torch, earning her a stitch in the side. She busted through lines of Squad cats, finally coming to Rikah. She crumpled to her knees. "Rikah!"
Echo and Yarrow ran as fast as their legs could carry them. Echo flopped onto the asphalt ground next to Rikah, sobbing she set her head on his flank, trembling with agony. Yarrow stood in front of them, appalled and speechless.
Rikah made an "ah… ah…" noise in his throat. Twist nudged him with her muzzle, holding back the huge lump of emotion in her throat. The Squad stood around them, making a wide circle. There was only silence. "Rikah?" Twist mewed. This once huge, powerful, strong cat now looked small and defeated, pitifully gasping for air.
Rikah finally grasped the bit of breath that still resided within him. His voice came in a scratchy, wobbling whisper. "At least," he coughed, "I'll see Noel again."
Twist sniffed. "Exactly. She's waiting for you now." Echo only gave a drawn out groan of anguish. Yarrow lowered her head, closing her eyes as she trembled with horror and sadness. Rikah's head suddenly dropped, and with a final spasm and gasp for breath, he was still.
Echo's head faced the sky, and she cried out in pain. Twist lunged at Flamer and Torch, fury and rage propelling her, only to be knocked down by a group of cats. They forced her out the entrance. Flamer stood on his dumpster. "May this day be a reminder of the consequences of wrong doings, and a sign for you to never return." With this, Twist was flung onto the sidewalk, and all the cats padded back inside of the alleyway.
Screeches of protest from Echo rang from inside. Twist crossed the Thunderpath to the other side. She flopped onto her haunches.
What will I do now? She had been banished twice! She was loosing hope that she would ever find a home. Gasping for breath as she recovered from the tears, she caught a scent.
A flash of hope.
Crash's cats.
She bounded through the alley where the scent led. Crash had shown interest in her, even offering her a high rank. Would he accept her? Maybe, just maybe. This was her only chance for survival.
She followed the scent. Finally, she caught sight of a huge picket fence. She slipped inside to see garbage everywhere. Carrionplace? Forcing down any last tears, she walked forward.
A cat stepped out of a den made of wooden planks.
It was Crash.
"Twist! How lovely to see you." He padded over nonchalantly. Jet followed behind, slightly annoyed at the sight of her.
She dipped her head. "Crash," she mewed, her voice trembling. "I have been banished from my Squad. Your offer seems very tempting, and I understand if you have taken it back. But, if not…"
"Nonsense," he declared. "The more the merrier."
Twist blinked in surprise. "You'll accept me that easily?"
Crash laughed. "I offered you the chance, and you take it. Why wouldn't I accept you?"
Twist nodded hesitantly. "Thank you." She began padding forward when he stopped her with a protruding paw.
"First of all, I want you to tell me everything about the Glass Squad."
Tee.
Teehee.
HAHAHAHA
Cliffie, as always! Crazy turn of events, eh? Rikah's death, Twist joining the Rat Society…
Trust me, it's all part of a greater plan!
Thanks, guys!
See y'all next chappie!
