Najisi Kain

How could she leave only minor wounds on his muzzle? She had bit down as hard as she could. Claws slashed her face easily tearing her eye. She yowled in pain as her right eye was torn and blinded. So focused on Cocaine, she didn't even notice Carnal was trying to attack her. Thank goodness for whoever got in her daughter's way. She couldn't fight Carnal or Osic. She just didn't have it in her to harm her own offspring. Where they saw that as a weakness, she saw it as a strength. She was above them. Not a mindless heartless killer. Even Funeral was like that.. once.

In retaliation, Najisi lashed her claws directly at Cocaine's throat. Hard. She meant to do damage. Cut open his windpipe, strike his jugular, rip into his vocal cords. Anything. She would not forefit her life so easily to him.

But another had come into play. She was already down and pinned by Coke. Now this new male held down her legs and side. Without her hind legs she couldn't try to kick Cocaine off and get up. She was in trouble. She hoped Osic would help get this new male off.. As long as Carnal was busy with another, and this male was thrown off of her, she'd have Coke to herself. She'd be able to keep him from hurting Osic or taking Carnal's opponet so she could fight Najisi. That was the last thing she wanted.

She struggled but soon Circa, her old friend and trainee was also upon her. Things looked grim for her now. She couldn't die... Not here.. Not like this.. She had cubs to raise.. She had so many things she wanted to tell Reno. Her heart sank. Reno? Her good eye glanced at he and Funeral. So much pain. The male she once loved and turned against her, fighting the male she... She was afraid to admit it.. What if Reno fell? She wasn't ready to lose him...

"Circa.."

She growled and swatted at her, but it was barely an attempt to harm her. She was too preoccupied with Coke to actually strike out at the others.

Asera

Asera noticed Loth and Siakon. She tugged on Sina's ear and rushed toward her sibling and uncle.

"Was going on Uncie Loth? Why so many noises?"

As Cassius landed, he pressed his weight down upon Najisi, who seemed to be mostly focused on his father. He stole a few glances to Cocaine before trying to bite down on Najisi's leg.
He was ready to jerk his head and maybe tear at the tendons in her leg when another force slammed into him. He let out a gasp as he skidded across the rocky surface. Without too much thought, he sprung to his paws and launched himself at his assailant. He intended to collide with her and wrestle her away, or at least get to a position where they could engage in closer combat.
His first priority was getting back to Cocaine, but he would have to go through her first, which he would gladly attempt. He knew his father could hold his own, but he supposed anything would help when it came to the La Morte dominant.

KRANKHEIT, RENO {LA MORTE} COCAINE, CARNAL {MEUR}

He slammed a paw against the ground, crouched and readied himself.

I'll have you counting your dead.[/ul][/blockquote]

Najisi Kain

Her jaw was in the male's grasp. She moved her head with his, intent on keeping her main weaponry in tact. This left Cocaine vulnerable to her claws, however. A crack was heard and a tooth rolled out of Najisi's maw. Her tooth. Hurt like a bitch but now was not the time to cry over lost 'ivory'. Her legs were freed by Cassus being knocked away. But not before his fangs tore her left leg something good. How..? How could she be so hurt and yet barely injure Cocaine? She aimed to change this.

With her jaw locked in his, she launched both front paws at his face. Claws attempted to rake deep into his eye regions on both sides. At this same moment, her now free hindlegs came up and attempted to tear the flesh of Coke's side or belly. She planned to either get him off her jaw before it broke, or punish him greatly for taking out her main weapon.

Asera

Loth was gone. She and Sinna were alone. She ran to Sinna and curled around her, shaking. Why did Loth leave? Where was mommy? She mewed out, hoping Reno or Najisi would come. But they were at the camp while everyone was on the border.

"Mommy?"

[LAD]

Yasha & Yasbi & Jericho


Yasha laughed under her breath at the taste of blood, and when Carnal lunged at her - she let her. She let the bigger female lunge into her and used this to reach her front forelegs around Carnal's neck, her jaw lunging for the female's throat, and her claws digging into the shoulder blades. Feathers! There was the start of the wings that she'd got into. As they barreled backwards, Yasha kept her hold on Carnal, and growled bloody murder.

Yasbi met Cassius' lunge and aimed for his front leg, eyes locking with his own as she did so. She would try to get a grip on anything, snarling viciously even as Jericho's claws caught the end of her tail when he lashed out on her. But she had her mothers blood, and she was enraged. However Jericho paused. Let her deal with them. Let her do what she needed to do. He needed go to back for the cubs - so Meur didn't get their paws on them.

Turning he dashed away - pretending to rush after some other creature before he snuck out of the battles and ran towards camp. One cub had just run back to the den.

Asera... He turned direction and lunged for the cub, scooping the little thing up into her maw and racing some random direction - but not Meurtrier. Soon as the sound of battles left his ears, he placed the cub down. "Stay!" he growled out, then raced back for Sinna and did the same to her, and to any other cubs that crossed his path. He paused then. Meurtrier would hopefully not have noticed what he ran after exactly, but he moved each and every cub from that spot - further, and further away from the battle, a constant back and forth.

Kazbek Kannon & Sinna Kain

Kazbek had him, his neck in his jaw. Yes, this was it, now was the time, he would be the second to spill blood here, and he wasn't going to let this go. Not now. He clamped down on the piece of throat he had, eyes gleaming as no one came to aid the male that was now crushing between his jaws. What a shame. A smirk appeared beyond the mass of fur between his teeth.

Sinna whimpered as she felt someone around her, but the scent filled her nose. "Asera?" she mewed, and turned toward her, curling around her as well. "Are we gonna die?"

It wasn't long at all though before their hiding spot was infiltrated, and she yelped as her sister was yanked away. "No!" she squeaked, before realizing who she was being handled by. A friend, a La Morte member, they were going to get out! But she didn't want to, she felt safe where she was, and gave a slight new of protest. "we'll be found if we leave!"

[kahara]

COCAINE CARNAL {MEUR} KRANKHEIT {LA MORTE}

[/i] He snarled. "We have your cub, and Carnal wants to see you drown in your own blood." He spat down on the dominant female. "LEAVE HER." Cocaine commanded and gave her one last hard glance before he backed away and stood still.

Eyes then turned from Najisi's form to Cassius and Yasbi. A vicious snarl rippled from his chest, through his throat, and echoed into a roar as he lunged after Yasbi, lashing out left and right without hesitating. Circa and the others could deal with Najisi if she tried anything; but they had all they needed. Now it was up to Funeral to call them back or for La Morte to fall.

Carnal used her size, and her head. Literally. She began to swing her head back and forth and into Yasha to avoid having her neck ripped open; but her wings went unchecked and she felt the sting and pain of her feathers flying and blood dripping from the wounds. She let out a scream of pain and began snapping at Yasha's shoulders.

Krankheit gasped for air, blood bubbling in his throat as he coughed and gagged. Death wasn't pretty, and in his case, it wasn't fast. A formality of war. He felt bones snap, and then, nothing. Krankheit fell limp to Kazbek; dead.[/ul][/blockquote]

Cassius growled as claws met his chest and shoulder. He landed on the ground in an off balance crouch, one leg bent slightly as it bled. He slashed out at Yasbi again, trying to get close so he could bite into her. He saw his father's movements out of the corner of his eyes and felt a little more confident. Was Najisi dead? He was a bit surprised his father had abandoned his battle for this one. He moved closer to the opposing female and reared up to get a grip on her.

Najisi Kain

Najisi roared as her chest was torn. This was far from over. She wouldn't stop until Cocaine paid for what he had done. She snarled and brought herself up as the others were called to leave her. Her jaw had been freed before it broke, though she was injured. Blood poured from her maw from the broken tooth. Her chest was bloody and her leg was damaged. Her eye was gone. But she was not going to stop.

"This.. Isn't over, Cocaine."

She smirked. She may have been the bloodier one, but he was retreating. Afraid that she would have bested him?

"Running away? Afraid trecherous filth can best you?"

She scoffed and followed Cocaine. He was hers! She lunged as he lunged. Her aim was is flank and rear. She snapped and clawed at anything, Leg, tail, spine. Whatever she could grasp she'd try to break or tear off. So enraged by the male, she had not even seen Krank fall. A death that was HER fault.. Had she not told Krankheit not to harm Carnal.. He'd likely still be alive. Zenith wouldn't be gone.. But Najisi was too focused on maiming Cocaine.

Asera

Asera epped as she was moved, flailing and squirming out of fear. She cried out several times, too scared to realize who was even moving them.

((You guys are swarming this thing lol I only skimmed, I don't have time to read every post fully. So if I skip over something just assume shit XD ))

Osic Donovan

Purples pierced into Cocaine, he had always had his assumptions about the Commander being a big roll in his parents "divorce". Before he could reply to Cocaine a black mass made Osic cringe slightly before he looked at his father. Pain and hurt shot over his face.
"Father I -" But the King was gone, moving on with his own battles. Then there was Circa. Eyes squinted as he met her blue gaze. How could she understand? She never knew her mother. All she had was a distant father who hardly had anything to do with her. How could she possibly understand.
When Carnal appeared and roared her complaint Osic flared over then. "How dare I!? How dare YOU Carnal! Cocaine is the reason behind mothers distance. Don't you think she wanted to be there for us? She's our MOTHER! Cocaine just couldn't stand the thought of his precious King loving ANYTHING!" He even went as far as to take a swipe at his sister. Never before had he been so violent. "If Funeral even showed the slightest bit of love toward us I'm sure the Commander would slip some lie to Funeral just so he would hold some sort of distaste for us! I don't want to be a mindless killing machine Carnal." Though he said her name he also took a glimpse toward Circa, his eyes holding a slight plea, obviously filled with torn pain. "He's nothing but a hypocrite.. He preaches about having strong and perfect warriors and even KILLS cubs that HE sees unfit when his own son is deaf! Why did he get to live then? Why does a deaf cub get to live when so many others have died for less?"
He paused then when Najisi whispered into his ear. This was it. Yes he hated Reno but the more he thought about it the more he realized that he despised Cocaine. As the Kain female lunged for the big male Osic braced himself for whatever attack was headed his way. He knew that in Meurtrier eyes he had made his decision.

[TheWG]

Kazbek Kannon & Circa Da'ei

Kazbek dropped the limp body as it became heavy in his jaws, the snap of his neck very audible to him through even the loudness of the battle. As Krankheit fell to his paws, he let out a loud roar of sheet triumph- so loud; that he hopes both prides alike heard of his triumph. "Krankheit is dead by my teeth! La Morte will fall!"

Circa snapped her head as Osic made his decision. Loud and clear... Her heart fell, harshly, and a cold look fell over her blue gaze. "Osic..." She breathed, before her lip curled to an unbelievable snarl, her face looking pained as she roared toward Osic, leaping off of her paws to lunge towards him. Her heart hurt, another friend left her- betrayed her, for La Morte, that was how she saw it. Funeral would kill him. Circa's heart broke, and her face felt a bit wet as she batted at him furiously. "You're supposed to be my friend! I can't be friends with another traitor!"

[LAD]

Yasbi Yasha Jericho

Yasha snarled viciously at Carnal even as the feline bashed her shoulder before promptly feeling her own pain as fangs pierced the flesh of her shoulder. She shrieked and let her body fall to the ground, allowing her claws to drag against the creature's flesh as she did so, and ignoring the brief daze that came with hitting the hard ground. She quickly wriggled out from under Carnal, launching her back paws into the female's chest/belly as she did so to push herself away further from her.

And then Osic spoke - he'd made a choice it seemed. Carnal was off her back. Good. A sight caught her eye and quickly, Yasha lunged in the opposite direction of Carnal, the six creatures, her, Carnal, Cocaine, Najisi, Cassius and Yasbi were close enough that she could easily do so, and lunged at Cocaine instead. As his back was towards her and facing Yasbi, she aimed to slam into his backside, hurting his butt in the process with the fierce-ness of her attack. "Leave my daughter alone you bastard!"

Yasbi took the opportunity of his bad balance to grasp at his leg and then promptly yank her jaw back to rip into the flesh. The taste of blood filled her mouth and she gave a laugh around the blood and fur before she felt Cassius' weight hit her from above. She released his leg, and gasped harshly, rolling away from Cassius and regaining her paw-hold. But it didn't last long as a blow from the side sent her flying a few feet away with the vicious-ness of Cocaines attack. She screamed at the blow to her shoulder, but scrambled back to her paws quickly as she faced the two. Then her mother came into her view.

Jericho took the cubs a safe distance away - on the complete other side of the turf, and paced restlessly. Back and forth. He had to get back to the fight, but he didn't know if these cubs would listen to him. And the back and forth journey had tired him from the four cubs he had carried around.

[Silverfang]

The King's lips were curled back in a snarl, blood staining his fur from his back. He longed for his enemy's. For Reno's. He tossed his head, wings straining but stretching wide. He let out another roar as he had before. His attention would catch the group he had first stopped by, seeing the bloodied and matted bodies - especially that of Najisi. He would simply turn to Reno and smile. Cold, victorious, determined.

Another roar.

His claws raked the ground below him, blood droplets tinging the earth as they fell from his fur. A standstill - though very much wanting to run into him and continue.

And eventually he could wait no longer.

With a powerful launch, he would barrel toward him, lowering his head at the last minute to try and jam his horn/s/whatever somewhere into the Traitor's King.

The young Caliver felt teeth around his leg before he came down upon her. As she jerked as his flesh, he felt his leg give in that direction and his grip faltered. He crashed to the side as Yasbi rolled away, but was quick to get up as soon as Najisi was going at Cocaine again. He heaved himself away and regained his fighting stance. The numbered stacked differently now, but Cassius's focus was almost entirely on Yasbi. She was his target, and in a few short bounds, he had crossed the distance between them. He charged at her, but at the last second dove into a crouching position and kicked at Yasbi's legs with his back ones, hoping to unbalance and disarm her but at the same time leaving himself open when he scrambled to get back on his paws.

RENO, SLAUGHTER {LA MORTE} COCAINE, CARNAL, ODYSSEIA {MEUR}

[/i]

His half brother and pride warrior. La Morte was on the losing end this round. It was a tough decision, and his eyes were still on Funeral. But he raised his head and roared. "La Morte! RETREAT!" He glared at Funeral as if to say this wasn't over. They would meet again. But he flew down and began to encourage his members to run. To run and retreat, to hide and regain energy. They had lost the battle.

But the war was far from over.

Slaughter hadn't a chance to attack his opponent again before Reno called for retreat. He hesitated. There was still so much more damage that he wanted to inflict on the other, but that was it. He spat and turned to run with Reno and the others.

Cocaine felt both Najisi and Yasha after him, and he turned with a vicious snarl and began lashing out at them before he heard Reno call for La Morte's retreat. He roared and began to snap at them, as if encouraging them to run, run and hide. Carnal had been left by Yasha, and she immediately flew down to Osic and Circa. Disappointment was all over her face.

"You fucking TRASH!" She screamed at Osic, despite Circa being there. She contemplated attacking Osic, but chances were that Funeral wanted to deal with him. She gave him one last glance, knowing all too well it could be the last they saw of each other, and then turned to run and aid Cocaine. She squeezed past the others and leaped at her mother. Retreat or no retreat, she was angry. She blamed Najisi for her broken family.[/ul][/blockquote]
