A/N: Welcome back! I changed my mind, no Sephiroth POV. Anyway, onto the chapter!
Chapter 5
Rosefluff scammed the clearing for Brokenshade, but couldn't find him. She snarled in anger as she realized that the warrior hadn't come to the Gathering. That sly fox! Rosefluff thought with a growl. Wait, a fox! Of course! I can find a fox that will be willing to do my dirty work for me! Then I will be able to just relax and watch the blood bath. Rosefluff purred at the thought. But one question remained. How would she get the fox?
She scanned the dense undergrowth and sniffed the air. Perfect, a fox had gone by recently. Rosefluff padded out of the clearing and followed the fox's scent trail. She padded around a large bush and saw the signature tail of a fox. Rosefluff purred and padded from beside the bush. The fox pricked its ears and turned to her. It snarled and slowly walked forward. Rosefluff hissed and waited for the fox to charge.
Rosefluff flattened her ears and dodged out of the way. The fox curled it's ugly muzzle in a snarl of contempt. Rosefluff hissed and scratched the fox's eyes. The fox squealed and tried to run away. Rosefluff blocked it's path and stalked forward. The fox growled and leaped at Rosefluff. The she - cat easily dodged. Though, the fox had managed to get some of Rosefluff's fur. Rosefluff hissed, if she wasn't careful, that fox could really hurt her.
Rosefluff snarled and bit the fox's hind legs. It screeched and struggled out of her grasp. Pain was visible in the fox's eyes. Rosefluff watched as the fox limped towards her. It tried to get a good blow, but fell to the ground with a loud groan. Rosefluff stayed silent and watched the fox try to get up. She watched as it slowly stood and shook itself out. Rosefluff watched as it charged her again, this time faster than it used to be.
Rosefluff growled as the fox pushed her face into the ground. With a mighty yowl, Rosefluff threw the fox off of her. It snarled, then whimpered as it's paw caught on a bramble. It whined as blood showed from it's legs. The brambles were hurting it. Rosefluff slowly stalked forward again, causing the fox to let out a vicious hiss. Rosefluff snarled and bit the brambles off of the fox's leg. It looked surprised, confused and grateful.
Rosefluff snorted in response and the fox slowly began to walk away again, limping from the brambles. Still, Rosefluff wouldn't let it go. The fox narrowed it's eyes in anger and confusion. Rosefluff didn't say anything, she just grabbed the fox by it's tail. It yelped and struggled it's way once again, out of her grip. Rosefluff blocked the fox's way from getting away once again. The fox slowly stalked forward, it's nimble body close to the ground.
"You'll never be able to escape, give up," Rosefluff hissed, her ears flattened against her head and her lips drawn back in the beginnings of a snarl. She padded up to the fox and spat in it's face. It snarled and growled at her. Rosefluff wasn't going to let it get away from her. "What is your name, fox?"
"My name? I am Ray. Now let me go! Or I'll make you by force!" the fox snarled. Rosefluff desciferd from the voice that it was a female. Ray snarled and tried to run away. Rosefluff stopped her, her eyes narrowed to tiny slits. Ray snarled and tried to leap over Rosefluff. She only blocked her again. Ray hissed and growled, "Let me go, stupid cat!"
"No, you will join me, no matter what you say!" Rosefluff snarled, she then began dragging Ray by her ear. The fox groaned and gave up her escape. Rosefluff purred, it had worked, she had successfully hired a fox to kill Brokenshade. Ray would find herself at home if she did as she was told. For now, she would be treated as a true Groupmate. She padded back to the Gathering Clearing and saw that everyone was gone. "They left without me, well not that I blame them."
Now one question remained, what would the Group think when Rosefluff brought Ray?
A/N: Well that chapter was shorter than usual. Maybe I am just tired from writing A Life in Space. Seriously, that took a while. Anyway, see you all in the next chapter. Remember to review favorite and follow!
