Chapter 10
A single black tom padded into the open and paused to scent the air. "They came this way, didn't they?" the black tom hissed at a cat, two of his warriors were carrying roughly. "Like I would tell you," the cat hissed bravely, though in truth the cat didn't know which way they went. "Where are they?" the black tom hissed, and one of his warriors sank his claws into the cats pelt. The cat hissed in pain and lashed out its claws. It smiled in satisfaction when the claws connected with the cat that was holding her. "Why can't we just kill her now?" a dark ginger tom begged. "We can't, because we need her, and can do away with her, when we find what we are looking for," the black tom hissed. "And you think I'm going to tell you?" the cat guessed, with a purr.
She broke off as the dark ginger tom sank his claws into her shoulder. "I told you, if you show us which way they went, we'll make your death fast and painless," the black tom hissed. The cat hissed and lashed out her claws again. The claws connected with the dark ginger tom's ear and he leaped up with a hiss. His grip on the cat loosened and the cat wiggled out and fled. "After her, she is the only one who knows where the others are," the black tom hissed. Gotta keep running, I've got to keep running, the cat thought as she ran on. The dark ginger tom was hard on her paws as was a brown tabby she cat. The cat ran faster when she came across a twoleg nest. She took one look behind her and leapt onto the fence of the nest.
The dark ginger tom and the brown tabby she cat ran right past the fence. The cat sighed with relief and glanced away from the group of cats. When will they notice I've been leading them in the wrong direction? She wondered. The cat may not know where the cats they are looking for have gone, but she know the direction they went. I must find them, she thought, but she was exhausted. Her wound ached and she felt as if she would collapse. Not knowing what else to do, she leapt down from the fence and into the twoleg garden. Then she crawled underneath a bush and settled down to sleep.
She ended up dreaming a nightmare. Cats screaming and crying out in pain. Several cats looking at her, and opening their mouths in a silent plea for help. The cat could do nothing, it was as if she was frozen in place. "I'm sorry, I can't reach you," the cat yowled but the cry was lost in the chaos around her. She, finally able to move, dodged as three cats sped past her. But the three cats were caught under a tree. She finally flung herself into the woods and turned to watch as the chaos started to thin out. But then a single screech of pain split the night air. It was cut off abruptly, and another screech came. But it was to far away for the cat to hear. She only caught one word of the screech, "mother!"
The cat woke up with a jolt of terror to find she was sitting below a bush. I have to find them, the cat thought to herself, but where are they? And will I get there in time?
