Heat filled her ears. The only reason no one would notice was because of her red fur. Thank goodness for her red fur. WAs Ray talking to her? She'd better answer, others might be waiting for her to say something. But why would they want her to talk? Before Sakura could manage to say anything, Boo walked over to the group of cats. She sat beside her adoptive sister. With her tail she gentely nuddged Sakura.
Why was Sakura acting so strange? 'I thought...Takuya and Sakura...' The thought dirfted through her head. 'Oh well...it doesnt really matter.'
"Hi Ray.." Sakura mummbeled as she looked down at her paws.

ooc: Do I detect a love triangle, or am I being a little too presumptuous?
bic: Tilting his head to the side, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He wanted to let his gaze drop, to contemplate things for a while. "Um...everything okay?" Forward but not too direct. All was well.
That's when Mint seized the opportunity and lunged for his face. The next thing he knew she was clawing at his neck, fangs bared and saliva with froth pouring like an endless waterfall. Completely in shock, it took him a while to respond. At last, Ray struck her underbelly, but she didn't budge. Too strong...

ooc: Nope. Your assumptions are correct.
"Get off him!" Sakura suddenly snarled and lunged at Mint. She barreled into both of them, hoping that it would force Mint off Ray. She thrust claws and teeth into the mass of hair, and calws hoping to land some damage onto the black and white she cat.
Boo stood back, her fur fluffed out even more than it had been before. She leapt up in panic and clung to the top of the fence.

Hissing, Mint dove under the outstretched paws and lodged onto the she-cat's chin, taking firm hold as her thrashing legs descended. Ray, recovering gradually, panted and burst forth, attempting to pull her away. She was really quite strong, he realized, as she bucked him. Sent flying, he did not land on all fours. Groaning, he saw stars as he tried to get back up. Weight was so heavy...

"Get off me!" She spat at Mint. She lunged all her wieght onto Mint, digging teeth into Mint's skin. The taste of blood rushed onto her taste-buds. She ripped her head from side to side, tearing fur from Mint's hide. Sakura's slammed her eyes shut, and dragged her claws down Mint's side. She hoped it was deep enough to make her bleed. NO ONE MESSES WITH HIM! Her thoughts fueled her furry. Faster. Everything about her was more firece.

He was in a daze now. It was all just bright colors. Everything swam and spun, diving under. He heard yowling and claws unsheathing and sheathing and general battle cries, but other than that, he could discern nothing.
Throwing her head back, she furiously howled and dove at Sakura's leg, trying to tear into the flesh. As he witnessed this sight, his sense of awareness came back. Wobbling over, he tore into Mint's back and toppled her over. "Go.Away.Now." To his astonishment, she listened.

Perched delicately on a wooden fence post was a jet-black she-cat rhythmically licking her chest fur. She had just narrowly escaped the jaws of a dog moments before. The sound of a cat fight echoed through her acute ears and she looked up with slitted orbs of dark blue.
'Kittypets provide such entertainment!' Acerbus laughed inwardly as she leapt down from her roost and padded swiftly across the yard of another twoleg garden. In seconds she was behind the fence concealing the writhing masses.
By her tiny peep hole in the white fence she saw two fighting she-cats. It made Acerbus sigh, noting how desperate some she-cats could get. Apparently they were fighting over a tom that was breaking up the fight.

Mint glared at him, eyes blood-shot and pupils large. Eek. Perhaps she's been hanging around the catnip too often?, Ray thought. "Fine, Ray. If that's what you want. I'll go. But this isn't the end of it." Narrowing her eyes one last time at Sakura, she spit on the ground before scurrying off into the brush.

Sakura wanted to comment fter her, but she honestly didn't know what to say. She had wanted to be friends with Mint, but could she after this? Everything told her that it would best to stay away from Mint. A growl rose in her throat even though the immediate threat was gone. She sheathed her claws, and decided it would be better to not talk to Mint after this.
"Ray!" Sakura's green eyes widened. Was he shaking? "Oh, gosh. Ray are you alright?" She asked. Her tone was obviously full of concern. But would he respond?

His lips turned upwards as he panted, a frightening equivalence of a human's beam. "Why wouldn't I be?" he murmured. There was no trace of sarcasm or cynicism to it; just a simple question. Dusting himself off, he ran a paw over his ear.

"Ray, you didn't look like...I didn't think..." A lump of fur laying on the ground that was Ray flashed in her minds eye. She didn't think he was dead, of corse not, but it would kill her to see him wounded by another cat. And if she lived around here, they woudl certaintly meet again...."You're sure your ok Ray?" Sakura's legs were starting to shake. Where were her wounds? She couldn't tell. All over her skin was tingling, and her mucels ached.

Calmly, he gently nudged her. "If anyone's not okay, it's you, Sakura. This whole thing's been traumatic for you, hasn't it? Sorry I got you involved. Mint's a pyschopath--not right in the head." Sliding to her right side, he prepared himself to steady her in case of a fall. It was unfortunate and a bit ironic that he had been the one attacked, yet she was the one feeling the effects of it.

Shighing she leaned some of her weight onto him. It was good for her, it stopped her legs from shaking. "I'll be fine," Sakura promised him, "I've been through stuff just as bad, if not worse." She hated to bring up her past, it drew attention to her, but it was true. Broken bones wasn't the worst, and this was not even near a broken rib, or a broken leg. "You think she's insane huh? I thought she was going to turn out to be a nice cat...."

From her tiny peep hole in the fence Acerbus looked on with mirthful eyes. 'Oh, yes. Kittypets are purely for entertainment.'
Laughter howled out of her throat as the tom went over to the other she-cat, but it was abruptly cut off. The dark female caught herself and dove away from the fence. She just hoped that they hadn't heard, but that would be nearly impossible.

Boo saw Acerbus. Why was she sulking around in such times? After what happened with Mint, someone might take offence again adn launch another attack. Being alone would also look equally suspicious. "Er, Acerbus! Wait up!" She almost sprinted to the other cats side. "What you doing all by yourself? Didn't you see Mint? Aren't you scared she might get you next?"
