Cat Got My Tongue

He growled as he looked left and right and up and everywhere. Wherever he looked, there was a cat. Cats in the trees. On rocks. On the ground. And then there was...Theta. Dammit! What was she doing here!? She was the last person he wanted around and yet, here she was. "Need some help?" His ears flattened as he was about to snark back at her, but then a cat fell on his back hissing and spitting at the same time Theta was being attacked. He didn't miss her calling him an idiot though, and as he whirled around, he grabbed the cat by its tail and he threw the little bastard as hard as he could straight at his sister. He didn't care if it hit her or not, but he was hoping it would. "Looks like you're the idiot needing help!" He exclaimed as he fended off another cat that had tried to sneak up on him. Maybe the cats would be useful to put her in her place and shove her ass in the snow where she belonged. She always thought she was better, but truth was (and the way he saw it), she was the worst out of the litter. And not in a good way. She had a bad attitude and a holier than thou vibe that made her feel like she was somehow better than everyone, but she wasn't. He'd see to it that she knew that, too. Consequences be damned!

She may have beaten him once out of luck and her cheating, but he'd be sure to put her in her place soon enough. Focused more on the cats, however, Tyto charged the brindle cat that had been advancing on him, forcing the feline to skitter back. It lashed out at him as it did so, its claws scratching across his sensitive nose which only served to anger him. He rushed the cat, deciding he wasn't going to let it get away with that and as it turned around to flee, he gave chase. Tyto's paws pounded the ground as he caught up, teeth snatching the cat up by the spine. He shook it as hard as he could until he heard and felt a snap and it went limp in his jaws. Tasting the blood of his first victory, he glanced over at Theta to see how she was doing. Not that he would help her unless he absolutely had to. So for now, he'd wait and see how this played out.
