Reluctant Assasin (part two)

Bramblefire was padding along, hunting, when he smelled TangleClan. It could be scent drifting from the border but... He jumped and stared at Otterpad, who was ready to pounce on Mudpaw! I have to do something! So he leaped at Otterpad, throwing her off balance. Then he was raking his claws across her flank when she whipped to the left and tried to run away. But Bramblefire lunged at her. Seeing this fierce Islandclan warrior was so intent on slaying her, Otterpad twisted out of Bramblefire's grip. She rolled ontop of him and stationed her jaws at his throat. Bramblefire braced himself for the killing bite when he heard the slender TangleClan warrior mewing,

'Stop trying to kill me and I'll let you live.'

'Okay....' Bramblefire mewed trying to sound intimidated.
But as Otterpad tried to run he lunged ontop of her again and before he was going to sink his jaws into her neck he mewed,

'No TangleClan cats EVER gets away with trying to slay Islandclan cats.'

But just then, a muscular black form threw itself at Bramblefire, knocking him off Otterpad.

'Darkenedheart...' Otterpad whispered, half scared and half relieved.

'And no IslandClan kittypet ever tries to slay TangleClan cats and gets away with it.' Darkenedheart mewed mockingly as he sunk his jaws into Bramblefire's neck.
The young brown warrior went limp.

Otterpad gasped. 'You-you killed him.'

Darkenedheart almost looked sympathetic, but then he hardened.
'He was about to kill you! What was I supposed to do then eh?! Well anyway, you failed your task. Mudpaw is long gone.' And with that the two TangleClan cats crept away lithely.
