"He must've taken my father's territory. Yeah, thats him alright," growled Red Claw with a slightly evil grin. She looked off at the area ahead, noticing a small group of lions heading in the opposite direction they were heading. "Manderius must be up ahead, probally another male with him," Red Claw rumbled.

[The Kingpin]

Nightbane moved forward swiftly, wanting to get as close to Manderius as possible before letting him know he was here...the more of a surprise Manderius got, the better. there was more chance he'd catch him half asleep...and with that....more chance of getting a powerful headstart in the fight...

[UndeadRaptor]

Red Claw watched as Nightbane followed the two lions heading away from the trio. "Maybe we should fight that other lion off to help out Nightbane," she growled to her sister, wanting too know if she wanted to help Nightbane fight against the two lions that basically outnumbered him.

[Hopeflower]

"Sounds like a plan," Whitetip murmured, starting after the male, keeping her steps silent as she could.

[UndeadRaptor]

Red Claw slowly followed behind her sister, heading for a bush near the other two lions, seeing a large one with a mane, Manderius, and a maneless one, possibly his mate. "I think we can take on that second lion while Nightbane deals with Manderius. The second one doesn't seem too strong either," Red growled to her sister, seeing the second lion as a female.

[The Kingpin]

as Nightbane neared the two, realising it was a male and it's mate, Nightbane made a challenging roar, standing to his full height, piercing eyes glaring at the two threateningly, the emerald green eyes entrancing and terrifying at the same time...

[Hopeflower]

"If she gets away, she'll alert the rest of the pride," Whitetip growled softly, lowering herself into a crouch and keeping her gaze on the lioness with Manderius. "Let's get her out of the way and make sure she stays quiet."

[UndeadRaptor]

Red Claw suddenly rushed in behind Nightbane, roaring with fury at the female. Her claws suddenly propelled from her paws, her killer claw shining in the light of the moon. She started to growl at the female, challenging her to a dual.

Manderius snarled at Nightbane as he challenged the young lion. "You fool! you dare threaten me and my mate! prepare to die you dumb fool!" he threatened, preparing to lunge at Nightbane. "I own this territory, i own most of the grasslands around here, and now you try and overthrow me? Your more pathetic than my son!" Mandeius continued, baring his teeth.

[Hopeflower]

Whitetip was right behind her sister, a rasping snarl coming from her throat. Her claws itched to feel the sensation of ripping through Manderius' flesh and scraping against bone, but for now chewing on this lioness would do.

[The Kingpin]

Nightbane chuckled at the elder lion's threats. "You really think you have the capacity to intimidate me? all i see is an old lion whose achievements have gone to his head. Killing the loved ones of others will be the last mistake you ever make" growled the Lion as he circled Manderius, making occasional snarls to keep the elder tense and lure him into attacking, making sure to keep enough of a distance to let him evade the blows when they came...

[UndeadRaptor]

Manderius ignored Nightbane's threats, and glanced over at Red Claw and White Tip. "So, I see you and your sister have survived after I destroyed your pathetic family. Well, I'm gonna finish my job of killing your family right here and right now!" he roared as he lunged towards the two sisters, who were busy with his mate, who was about to attack the two.

Red Claw lept to the right as Manderius came flying towards her and White Tip, only to see him tackle her sister. "No!" growled Red Claw as she started to charge towards the elderly lion, only to be lunged on by his mate.

[The Kingpin]

Nightbane dove for Manderius, his claws slamming into the elder lion's arm and back as his jaws bit into the lion's neck, through the mane, his experience in combat telling him exactly where to bite, bowling the lion out of the two lionesses' way and to the ground, raking the lion's flanks viciously with his claws, deep wounds torn into the lion's arm and flank, meaning he'd have trouble moving if he broke free...

[Hopeflower]

Whitetip let out an enraged snarl, getting to her paws and leaping at the lioness attacking her sister. Her head rammed the female's flank, knocking her off-balance and off of Redclaw.

[UndeadRaptor]

Red Claw started to claw away at Manderius' mate as she started to bite into her. She roared at the lioness as she started to struggle as she continued biting at Red's neck. Red instantly noticed she wasn' being attacked anymore, seeing her sister ram into the lioness' flank.

Manderius struggled as he was getting bitten in his neck by Nightbane, and started to claw into his flank. As the strength of Nightbane's bite was getting larger and larger, Manderius suddenly acted dead, to try and fool the male lion attacking him. His father taught him how to do this incase he was getting attacked to the point where he was forced to do so.

[The Kingpin]

Nightbane was no fool. he knew his attack wasn't lethal. he continued to thrash at the lion, making use of the lack of resistence, raking deeply into the lion's flanks, making use of his position, knowing Manderius would have trouble making use of his strength in this position...

[Hopeflower]

Whitetip sank her teeth into the attacking lioness' shoulder, using her own shoulder to try and knock the stranger onto her side.

[UndeadRaptor]

Manderius instantly started to thrash and attack even more at Nightbane, realising his plan wouldn't work. "Why are you attacking me? I haven't done a thing to harm you!" he snarled at Nightbane, curious over why another lion would suddenly attack him for no reason whatsoever.

Red Claw started to help White Tip attack Manderius' mate as she started to bite White Tip's snout, causing her to lose her grip on the lioness' shoulder. Red pounced at the lioness, only causing her challenger to stagger back. Red Claw roared as she jabbed a claw into the opposition's flank after she landed from her failed pounce.

[Hopeflower]

Whitetip rammed the lioness' flank another strong shove with her head, trying to get her onto her side so she'd be more easily pinned.

[The Kingpin]

"Oh, so now you want to know why i'm attacking you?" snarled the Lion with a malevolently amused tone. Nightbane slammed a clawed paw down on the elder lion's hind leg, severely mangling the leg muscles, meaning that now both the elder lion's right front AND hind leg were badly injured. he would have trouble moving around. Nightbane let go and stepped back. "GET UP!" roared the male, his rumbling voice resonating loudly, enough to be felt in the chests of those around him for miles. as he began to circle the elder, he chuckled, amused. "I attack you for no reason....just as you did them" growled Nightbane as he circled, looking more like he considered Manderius prey rather than a challenger, predatory eyes gazing on the elder coldly. beneath the facade, Nightbane was making surehe didn't let his attention slip for a second, reading every move the elder made, expecting an attack at any moment. "You didn't give them a reason...you slaughtered their entire family...left them to fend for themselves...to suffer of loneliness...to burn with grief at the loss of their loved ones....you never gave them a reason for killing their family...so why should i give you one?" growled Nightbane...

[UndeadRaptor]

Manderius' mate roared at White Tip as she got rammed in her flank, nearly stumbling to the ground. Red Claw attacked her throat while she was busy trying to attack White Tip. Red looked over to see Nightbane starting to barley win the fight against the elder lion. Manderius' mate suddenly cut Red Claw on the side of her face, causing her to lose her grip of the lioness' neck.

"But, there is a reason! Their pathetic father's father killed my father years ago! I saw it all!" Manderius replied with a growl, hoping his lie would trick the lion into turning against his friends.
