(Wind Chaser Misses!)

It had been awhile since Wind Chaser had encountered a cat who only spoke the language of the claw. No matter what he said or did, this cat seemed determined to be enemies. Fighting was honestly the last thing Wind Chaser ever wanted to do but he had a companion now and he was determined to protect her. "Stay behind me. I'll take care of this." Wind Chaser mewed softly to Six without taking his eyes off the aggressive loner.

He let out a hiss as his fur began to fluff out. Slowly stepping towards the enemy cat, the golden tabby let out a yowl. Hoping to scare the attacker off, he swatted a warming strike at the cat, his sharp claws barely missing the others fur.

(Six misses her attack on the loner!)
HP: 10

Six wasn't entirely certain about how she was feeling about joining another cat after so long alone. She'd let him do most of the talking, occasionally guiding him with her tail on his shoulder, or walking ahead of him to look out for any trouble. She'd usually find trouble in the form of a predator, or another cat, but since joining in her life with this tomcat's, trouble hadn't found her yet.

Until it did.

It took the form of another loner and this one was the sort Six was far more used to. She felt affronted that Wind Chaser had commanded her to stay behind him and peeled her lips back, her offense made clear. She unsheathed her claws and came to stand beside Wind Chaser, shooting him a pointed look - they were going to talk about his behavior later. She was not some kitten that could do nothing. She then strode beyond him, making Wind Chaser be the one to be standing behind her, her large plume of a tail lashing one way and the next. Her eyes turned to focus solely on the loner and she sliced her claws against the ground in front of their unknown assailant's paws sending up a flurry of dirt in their wake.

"Do you value your life?" She snarled at their aggressor. "Because I don't mind taking it off your paws, if you don't have use for it." She jerked her head in the direction the loner had slunk out of. "Make your move, then."

The loner was desperate to protect his home. He'd only just secured a den, if it could even be called that, near the pond and he wasn't going to let two cats get so close to his territory. He'd had dreams of grandeur when he was younger, to live by the pond and find a mate and start a family of his own - but all the loner she-cats in the area that he'd met had wanted security. Now that he had security, a moldy wooden box left out by Twolegs, propped up against the stump of a tree just within the treeline around the pond, he wanted to protect it with all he could.

He could sense it the moment he saw cats nearby - they were going to steal his box, his home, his security and his chance at getting a mate! If he didn't attack them, they were going to ruin his every plan! It was a cat eat cat world out here and he wasn't going to be the one going down.

But.... stars above, if these cats didn't look scary in their own right. And they were young - younger than him anyway. But there wasn't a scar on them, whereas his pelt was littered with the battles he'd survived from the past. These cats were surely full of empty threats and nothing more. He could win against them! He had to win against them!

"Filth!" He spat. "You won't have my life - but you may will have my claws in your eyes!" He roared and jumped at the she-cat who had come to stand condescendingly in front of him. Only, one of his paws didn't make it off the ground in time, twisting with another and he missed entirely, falling short and landing on his face. Ouch.

(The enemy loner misses his attack on Six!
A new round of fighting begins!)

(Six misses her attack!)
HP: 10

The loner in front of her was ridiculous, but when he leaped at her, Six moved back quickly, out of his way and stumbled. She tried to lash out as she fell, though that added a lack of grace to her fall - flailing as she went down. As she scrambled to get a view of the loner, to see if he was close to attacking her, she found that she needn't have moved at all. He was pulling his muzzle out of the dirt and looking up at her with a vicious snarl through his teeth. She snorted her amusement, a smirk on her muzzle.

"Watch out, Wind Chaser," She said, amused sarcasm in her voice. "This guy's really scaaaaary." @NatiStorm

HP: 10

His heart sank as Six moved in front of him and closer towards the aggressive cat though he should have known. He wasn't the only one who had survived the wilds alone and it wasn't his place to ask Six not to protect herself. Still, seeing the mad loner jump at her sent a fire ablaze inside him. It didn't matter that their aggressor completely missed and fell in the dirt, they had still made a move to attack and Wind Chaser wasn't having it.

"Enough of this foolishness!" Wind Chaser hissed at his enemy. It was clear he wasn't nearly as amused as Six. To him, fighting was a very serious last resort interaction. He would never underestimate an opponent for one good hit is all it would take to bring plenty of misery to their lives.

"Scurry back to your den and let us pass!" He yowled as he lept forward, claws unsheathed, and slashed at the other loner. His claws raked against the cats forehead and ear.
