"he's hurt bad" she said and barely touched his chest.
"i think he has a few broken ribs...." she murmered and put her supplies back in her bag.

Anna felt her limbs settle when the male stray, Naoki rushed up the stairs and sent the vile black rat flying with the swipe of a paw. She settled down almost immediantely relaxing against the wall shivering a bit to get rid of the tenseness she had had.
"Ugh I hate those things" then her eyes widened as she realised the embarrasement "d-dont you dare laugh at that. R-rats are scary!" it was like she trying to prove to herself that she wasn't a weird neko.

As she waited for a responce she noticed a drip fall on her nose. Just their luck, the cloud was grey and the rain would soon start. Her tail ficked once and she spoke to the others, "You guys... it's starting to rain.. we need to move fast.."

"Vanthur...you have to bring him back to the house...please"
"I can help carry... But I wouldn't be able to do it all by myself. You can do it yourself or with my help.. I just want him to be ok... he had been so full or fear earlier, I'm sure this was of no help."
Varthur immediatly acted, crouching down as close to the male stray as possible. "I can carry him no problem, just please help him get on my back" he said before looking up at them. "I should run on ahead to the house where he'll be warm and dry-- please take care of yourselves as you travel back" he said pawing the back of his ear feeling a rain drop hit it.

"okay, we will be fine. Go." she said with a nod.
"rosalie...lets go" she said linking her arm in her friends, and trying to catch her attention so she wouldnt worry as much.
"he's gonna be okay" she whispered to her friend

He felt the stray on top his back attempt to move to which Varthur said in a soft, comforting voice. "Hang on fella"
After saying that, he ran swiftly yet carefully through the streets as the rain started to pour. He stopped short of a human on a bicycle headed his direction and managed to maneuver around it with great ease.
He slowed down his pace arriving at the familiar house and waiting underneath a tree wondering if he should enter as it was not his home afterall and what about the chances of bumping into a human?
Varthur decided to risk it, he had told them he would get the poor guy somewhere in the house to be warm and dry and the tree wasn't the best of shelters.
He ran out from underneath the tree moving his shoulders a bit more to balance the stray on his back and avoid him from falling off too easily. "Almost there" he said trying to comfort his new acquaintance as he stopped at the door pawing at it to check if it was locked.

On their way back Rosalie looked under some porches and in open sheds and found some older, scraggly cats looking back at her and Kari in intrest and snickering. "Uhm... Kari.. I really don't like it out here.." As soon as the words were spoken, 3 of the cats that had been looking were approaching with almost a limp, must have been their 'swaqqa'. Rosalie let out a fow hiss in guess they were responsible for Kyle's injuries. "You did that to him.!" Out of anger, she kicked his shin but it wasn't that full of power seeing as she was just a housecat her whole life. Unfortunatly, and being rather predictable, the tom she had kicked showed a sudden anger in his eyes and Rosalie just seemed to think of if it was them, what they were capabe of. Her soft, golden flecked eyes were now filled to the brink in fear and worry. "I'm sorry.!" Seemed to be all she could push out of her lungs, though, it was of no use. The tom gripped her arm and whispered something rather terrible in her ear and her eyes went wide. Soon the other tom attempted to grab Kari.

"yes, he will be okay. Hes going to be in pain for a wile...but he will live" Kari said patting her friends arm, and walked with her.
"Uhm... Kari.. I really don't like it out here.." Her friend said, Kari looked around aware they where being watched. She kept her body language relaxed and started to whisper 'just keep walking' but three cats stepped out, limping their way.
'Damn' she thought and tried to pull Rosalie the opposite direction.
"You did that to him.!" Rosalie hissed and kicked one in the shin out of anger. Kari only had a second to be impressed by her friends bravery then worried about the reaction before she saw fear fill her soft, golden flecked eyes. Her friend said "I'm sorry.!" but the Tom grabbed Rosalie and another made for her. She let out a low growl from the back of her throat and the tom hesitated before grabbing her arm. Normally Kari was the plain type but she did NOT let people touch her or her friends.
She saw the injured cat come running and almost rolled her eyes. The three cats turned on him and she growled. 3 against one? that SO wasnt fair. She swiped a claw out and caught her attackers eyes. He hissed in pain and stumbled back, slipping on some wet grass, and landing on his butt. She spun on the other one holding Kyle down and kicked him in his other shin, before punching him in the jaw. He let go and reeled back in pain.
"ow ow ow" she said in pain as this was her first fight. She was suddenly glad Kaycie had taken her along to some of her Self defence classes.
The third one came up behind her and grabbed her short hair, yanking her head back and kicking her legs out from under her. She barely caught herself with one arm and a foot before throwing a elbow into his groin. a low blow but she wanted to live. He dropped immeadiately and let her go. she stood up, tears burning her eyes as well as fury. all three where currently on the ground. she grabbed Rosalies arm and pulled her along past them, and grabbed kyle by the under arms.
"come on!" she yelled.
"lets go, you got this far kid!" she growled trying to motivate him

"Run dont fight!" she hissed at kyle and rosalie as she ducked under a swipe from one of the toms. She wasnt going to be able to fend off many more for much longer. She was running out of steam and there were to many. She wasnt trying the 'leave me behind ill sacrifice myself routine' more like, run until they cant catch us. Suddenly a human came around the corner and saw the fight. He picked up a rock and through it at the group of cats.
"shut up and quit fighting you mangy things!" he yelled and started towards them. The toms scattered and Kari was left staring at her friends wondering what to do.

Arriving at the scene and seeing Rosalie, the male stray on the ground...again as well as Kari, it seemed something-- had happened. "Whats wrong? Whats going on--" he asked before scratching his paw at the ground at a familiar feeling in his gut. He shifted his head in all directions as if looking for something and found it. Without another word, he jolted in the direction that lead him to a pack of strays who appeared to be escaping the area.
"Well lookie here! It's The Black Cat!" said one mockingly turning around hearing Varthur's pursuit, though the other cat cowered having heard the name. "You're smaller than I imagined.." said the leader of the strays as he walked up to Varthur analysing his build. "Yeah you look just like a scrawny kitt--" the leader of the pack was cut off by Varthur pouncing and pinning him down almost in a dog-like behaviour. Varthur smirked smugly as the leader's face suddenly filled with horror. "I wouldn't push my luck kitty cat.. you better stay out of this neighbourhood.. if you know whats good for you" he warned before reaching out his paw about to scratch his face. "Yeah the rumours are true.." his claws almost shined showing its sharpness. "I do mark my prey with a Z for Zoro.."
It wasn't long before the strays abandoned their leader leaving Varthur to deal with him alone. "So.. "

Miki's entire body shivered as she heard a faint, familiar, scream. She peered out the window saw Rosalie and Kari! And also.... an injured Kyle! She painfully stood there, knowing that she couldn't step in. Miki almost jumped out of the 2nd-floor window when she saw Kyle fall to be ground. "Mitsuki, I'll be back in a few!" She got out the window and carefully climbed down the wall, since it was raining. Once she was at a safe height, she leaped off, but when she landed, she twisted her ankle a little due to the wet, slippery grass. She winced but ran in wide steps in order to use it less. She saw the strays run past her in fright, one of them with a small bruise from a rock. She pretended to drop a large band-aid and a pain-relieving tube. She shrieked so the strays could turn around and pick up the stuff. She dashed off, her ankle turning swollen and purple. She saw Kari staring at Rosalie and Kyle, wondering what to do. She turned towards Kari and tapped her shoulder. "Kari-nyan, you help me with Kyle." She turned towards Rosalie and peered at her. "Rosalie, are you okay? Do you have any pain-killer stuff? My ankle is killing me." She winced at her ugly swollen ankle. She bent down and held up Kyle's arm and lifted only most of him up. She shed a small tear wiped it while hiding her eyes. Even though Kyle probably wouldn't hear her, she still whispered as quietly as possible, "Don't scare like that okay?" She wiped away her teary eyes and smiled her usual fake smile. "Let's go to get Kyle and you guys treated!" No one ever noticed that her smile was fake except for Mitsuki, since Mitsuki had known her far longer than everyone else. She put down Kyle, and wanted to make sure she could properly walk with her sore ankle that throbbed in pain. She stood up, felt intense pain, and fell down to the ground, grabbing her ankle in pain. She sat up and straightened out her pained face. "Ah sorry, it just hurt a little." She tried to stand up, but her body wouldn't obey. She sighed and looked up and Rosalie and Kari. "Can one of you guys help me up~?"

Rosalie knew well enough that if the tom and so called 'Zoro' got in a fight, she would probably yell out, rooting for him, not stepping in his moment though. She knew there was moments when people needed to do there own things and you needed to stay out of it. Being the neko she was, she knew and respected that fact.

Alas the stray decided to fight back.
The stray after being released and watching Varthur turn his back couldn't stand the humilation and pounced Varthur from behind. Varthur suspected as much and as the cat landed clawed on his back, slammed the cat against the brick wall beside him. The stray fell off his back unconscious from the blow.
"Tsk.." Varthur muttered to himself looking back on the stray before looking forward and noticing Rosalie.
He gulped feeling uncomfortable. Had she seen the whole thing...? He looked away as he walked closer as nobody he had friended ever saw that side of him.
