SIV!
There's a she wolf in your closet. Open up and set her free. There's a she wolf in your closet. Let it out so it can breathe. Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey. It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way. Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent. The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student.



-.Stroll around, flaunt your stuff. Most cats in Delirium were all the same were they not? It seemed like the days drug on. An anchor was dug in deep and perhaps wrapped around many a number of trees on the bottom of this ocean. This boat was stuck exactly where it was, and by boat she was metaphorically thinking. On a boat, delirium cats, near two-legs. The she-cat let laughter roll out her maw as she flopped over onto her other side. The earth was cool, her left side was warm...her right side cool...so why not cool the other? Hmm? "Very good thinking my love." She gave a lick to her paw. And then there was a bug, the little beetle scurried across the dirt. Her paw flashed quickly to where it was, dragging the helpless bug back to her body. Twisting and contorting her spine and body she found herself on her back. Carefully the bug was placed on her stomach. "Aw poor little thing." She cooed softly. She wasn't quite sure what she was doing with it...but she had it.

Rolling her eyes, Siv flicked her paw lazily. The bug went flying hitting the wall. "Hmm what shall we do today?" She purred to herself. Pulling herself off the ground the she-cat stretched lazily. By herself she maintained a calmer crazy stature, but the moment she found herself around another cat she just seemed to snap. Of course, what cat it was determined what snapped and when. Toms often caused a different reaction then she-cats.."but not all toms...pesky buggers." She murmured. Thoughts were intertwined with her words, each seemed to be a separate part of her. Though most that toyed with the idea of stepping anywhere near Siv knew of the she-cat's oddities. Her oddities were not bad, just different then what most wanted to deal with. Right now she was lonely, and right now she felt the need to toy with something. Be it mutilating a defenseless mouse or pulling a tom's heart from his chest...she could care less.

Tail flicked as her eyes glistened...let the hunt begin.

The regal master sat, the slight breeze whipping at his pelt, surveying his domain. It was all his. Shifting positions he tried to get comfortable on the rock he was sitting on. Finally satisfied he settled down a little more, chest puffing out proudly. It was just typical that the moment he managed to find himself at peace it was disrupted by something. He glanced over his shoulder only to see that it was Siv and he turned his back on her, ears twitching irritably. She was no threat to him as the orange coloured she-cat knew better than to attack him but he had a feeling that she would be coming his way and began to mentally prepare himself to deal with the pretty little burden. More like little slut. Siv seemed to have trouble containing herself, one way or another it was just like her to stir things up, if only she took it to the clans rather than kept it within Delirium. Maybe if he suggested such a thing to her she would go away and do that, leaving him alone. Being around her made him restless and slightly irrational. He couldn't help it, whenever he glanced at her he would have to look back again just to check it wasn't Vixen. His first reaction would always be a jerk of hope from deep within him, then second later the little hope he had crashed and burned. Just because she looks like Vixen doesn't mean she is Shard, you know better.

Hearing her approach he forced his muscles to stay relaxed and his fur to lie flat. "I doubt you are doing anything useful at the moment Siv, if you are bored you could always go and see what those soft-hearted clan cats are up to." He meowed sharply, not bothering to turn around and look at her. He could only imagine the ridicule he would endure from his sister should she suspect anything stirring within him at the sight of Siv, she would have a field day teasing him. She was nothing like Vixen. In fact she was really quite annoying, but maybe that was just because the more he noticed she looked like Vixen, the more he wanted her to stay away from him.

You try to rip me but I don't tear and I don't care
My skin is thicked out, our love was lost years before
This time I'm ready for your war
But now I'm ready for your war

-.Siv spotted him. Shard. She always had a weakness for the tom. But when a tom was in power it was hard for a she-cat to resist. Something inside her always said that if there was any tom to get involved with it would be him. But he wasn't helpful in the matter and they always seemed to dance around one another. Her legs stretched with each step as she brought herself closer. His back was to her and perhaps that was good. She watched his ears. He knew that she was coming. That was okay with her. Siv had never been one for surprises. She always hated surprises...usually. Unless they involved some sort of bloodshed, then those occasional times were okay. Hearing his words she laughed quietly. He wasn't going to turn and look at her and she was okay with that...she didn't need his full attention...yet.

The orange she-cat wasn't quite sure what to think yet. It was always hard to understand this tom. Most she could read like a book, yet Shard always seemed to house what he really felt deep down inside. His emotions seemed to be guarded under lock and key and she was far from knowing where the key was. She let her tail flick towards him, brushing his fur lightly. "I could think about that...or I could ignore you said anything..." Her words were more of her thoughts than anything. Most of the time they were thoughts that shouldn't be let loose from their place inside her mind. "...Or you could come with and that would give me reason to go." Her words were soft and almost instantly she regretted saying anything. This tom was one she would hate to push away. Clean up her act for him? Never...or at least that was what she thought now.

How much he would be able to control himself at this time was something he was certainly unsure of. He would and could never let himself give into the she-cat. After all, she was just an ordinary she-cat to him at the end of the day. Cats could look similar to each other all the time, he looked like his sister and like many other black cats with blazing amber eyes he knew, well of course he was a bit larger in size than all of them. Obviously they were going to be smaller than him, and if they weren't well he could easily downsize them using his claws. It wasn't as though they were there not to be used. Mostly he would use his brain before he used his claws which was one of the reasons others could not outsmart him but sometimes he just felt like letting go and putting all of his rage into his claws and as much as he had loved Vixen if she showed up right now that's probably exactly what he would do. Tear her apart with his claws. Maybe then she would feel how much she had hurt him, endure his own pain and sufferings. Then this whole thing would be fair, but then he would probably be even more annoyed and end up picking fights with more cats and hurting others more. What did he care though? He made a living from hurting others. Then he felt the soft tip of her tail brush his flank. The first thought that flashed through his head to lift his paw and smack her across the face with all his strength. Instead his eyes narrowed and his claws scraped the rock beneath them. That was about the time he noticed that he had been holding his breath. He forced the air out of his lungs and with it his rage.

Standing up he took a few paces before turning to look at Siv, his amber eyes appearing darker than they normally were but it wasn't their actual colour that had changed, just the feelings that were behind them. "It would be unwise for you not to listen to me." He finally said. However, her suggestion did cross his mind more than once. He could go, rip the guts from some stupid mouse-brained starclan beliving clan cats and relieve himself of this anger, but right now they couldn't really afford to have patrols of clan cats attacking them. He would just have to wait for something to come to him and when it did, it would not have time to life to regret it. Right now though he was tempted to go and fight with his sister, not in a serious way of course, they could often be found playfully fighting with each other. It helped him to blow off steam and he could trust that he wouldn't actually hurt her. However, she wasn't around and he had Siv. "You know I get tired of doing my own dirty work." He chuckled slightly. It wasn't so much that he found this funny, he was just slightly mentally unstable at the present. "But it's not like anyone can force me into anything." He snorted. Whipping around he struck the bark of an old tree that was beside him, claws leaving deep scores across it. He knew he was letting his real ego show, but he did have some things to be proud of at least. "Really though Siv, every now and then you have to take things into your own claws." He hissed, peering through his dark eyes at her.

-.Siv watched him closely. So much power that she just wanted to have t herself. But how...and suddenly her brain clicked. It was what she wasn't doing that was holding her back here. She was trying to suppress who she really was and that was what was hurting her in this case. It would be unwise for her to listen huh? Well that was too bad...unless she got what she wanted out of this little situation then she wasn't about to move. His power and strength, his anger, it never bothered her. But then again her mental status was never all the way in tact and with that factor it made her who she was. When she touched her tail to him, she had noticed how he was uncomfortable. She had noticed how tense he was. And now here he was telling her that nobody could force him into anything. Siv had pull whether she knew the reason behind it or not. Something dealing with her blood caused him to tick...and for that reason she was of a great deal of importance.

Take things into her own hands? He wanted her to do just that...so she would. Pushing her limits she moved herself closer to him, before snaking around behind him. She let herself barely touch his fur, knowing well enough that she might just be in for a fight dare she get too close. "You want me to take things into my own hands, then let's make a deall." She hissed quietly stopping in her tracks. "I'll find my way into a clan, easily plant myself where I have power and pull....but you give me what I want...." She moved beside him, tracing her tail down his side. Getting just out of his reach she whipped herself around to face him, her green eyes darkening as she watched him. "And dare you even ask what that is? For if you had to...I'd dare say you're a fool." Her voice was even as she held her ground. She had moved her queen to check his king...Save yourself Shard... Inside she was smirking but on the outside she held a stony nature.

Shard's mind was working overtime. It was buzzing with questions and answers and problems but no solutions. He tried to shake all of the thoughts from his head but it just wasn't happening. It was only when he felt Siv's presence closer to him than before that he got distracted from his thoughts. Turning to look her in the eye he felt himself tense, their maws barely a mouse-length apart. He was tempted to distance himself from the she-cat quickly but it was clear she had something to say, so he waited, prepared to hear her out for at least that might keep her happy. He wanted to push himself away from her because he knew that he was probably falling into one of her little traps, but at the same time he felt a slight longing to close the space that was left between them, but he didn't. However he couldn't help but show his mild interest when she mentioned making a deal with him. He was always up for bargaining as long as there were no tricks involved and those who had tricked him in the past didn't live to see the day. So this could either go one of two ways for Siv, it just depended on how she played her cards. By what she was saying he liked the first part of her plan, but the last part got his mind buzzing again.

Realistically it wasn't as though this deal wouldn't benefit him, for one if she would go to a clan as a result of their deal then he could get her to spy on a certain someone which would only help him out. It would be very useful for him to get information on such a tom. He felt shivers running across his flank as her tail brushed over it. Damn she-cats. "Subtlety is certainly not a great virtue of yours, Siv." He told her and as he looked into her eyes he knew exactly what she wanted. Whatever or not she would get it would be the question. "But of course there is the question of whether or not you are deserving of such an important mission on behalf of myself." He replied with a small teasing smirk. The thing was he could easily find another cat who was so willing to do this for him and with them they would want nothing in return. However, few of them could manipulate as well as Siv, and many of his cats were well known by the clans after so long. Siv was a fresh face, but quite a loyal one, but was her head in the right place? "And how might I ask." He began, stalking towards her proudly and stopping just short of where she was standing. "How are you going to convince one of those clans to take you hm?" He asked, but he didn't like to add it was the least welcoming one that he had in mind.

-.Oh what was she getting herself into. The she-cat really had no idea did she? The clan of which she would be placed into was not of her choice. She was getting nothing out of this...to be quite honest Siv wasn't that fond of kits. But passing on kits with that of her own blood, and Shard...that was something she couldn't help but chuckle at. She was a well marketed toy. She had the looks to get the job done, she had the personality, the manipulative skill that required being hidden from her real life. She wouldn't be allowed to let anything slip. It would be a completely different life...and that was how her mental status helped. Half of her didn't even register in what was going on now. It fought against her thinking and was chained down, locked away for when it was needed in the later ever thickening plot.

Listening to his words she couldn't help but laugh, and as he approached she smirked lightly, her amber eyes twinkling mischievously. Did he not know who she was? Did he doubt her? Ha. "Deserving? Shard, dear, we both know where I stand on this matter. I had the choice of my loyalties and I chose...and here I am, well placed in front of you, making a deal and all the while winning whether you know it or not. " Siv moved towards him, closing the gap as the tension rose. Her words could be considered offensive, but why ignore the truth while it was clearly sprawled in front of them. "A she-cat near giving birth, on the verge of death, battered and bruised from loners and rogues, bone thin...what clan would not take that in? Medicine Cats of the clans do not leave cats in that state out in the cold. " Her logic was well reasoned, and while she knew it risked putting herself near death...it put Delirium once step closer to gaining knowledge and coming out on top.

"Besides love..." the she-cat moved even closer her maw next to his ear, "kits with your name behind them, stronger numbers for us." Her words were soft as she pulled away, a smirk still played across her face as her eyes glowed vibrantly. "Besides, clan cats are soft and many easily convinced...trust can be found and young naivety still exists in some hearts. Perhaps more will see who's side they really should be on." If all went as planned...Siv was in, and she was that much closer to being near the top.

To want the she-cat, to not want the she-cat. It all came down to that but he couldn't deny that he did like drawing this out a little bit. He just couldn't seem to resist stirring things a little for he guessed that things were just about to get interesting between him and this she-cat. He had nothing to lose she was correct, and should she be taking this opportunity to lie to them then she would be finished it was as simple as that. Of course he knew that she was winning, for if he had decided that she wasn't no matter how hard she tried Siv would not be able to get him to budge. Shard could have taken this opportunity to turn on the she-cat, insulting her and mocking the fact that she was doing all this just for one little fling with a tom such as himself. However, something within warned him that this could lead to more but it wouldn't be a bad thing for him to have a casual relationship with another she-cat, it was far more suited to him than anything that required serious commitment. "Yet you would still do that for me. I am flattered Siv I really am, but I don't expect you to fail me in our little deal, so you had better hope that you can charm your way into the hearts of those pathetic clan cats." He said pointedly.

He patiently listened to all she had to say, it was clear to him now that she knew he would be the one with the better end of the bargain but since she seemed to willing to accept that then he had no problem with it. He was worth all the pain and suffering that she was going to put herself through. How sweet, but there was to mistaking the chemistry they felt. It almost seemed like this could be easy for him, he could basically continue from where he and Vixen left off and they could continue happily together, but love and what Siv wanted were two very different things and she had just sealed a deal with the devil. "So it seems you have it all planned out then, and I doubt I would want you to bring any of those idiots back here with you unless you feel the need to risk their lives." He snarled, flicking a piece of grass from the end of his claw.

Finally he sighed and looked up at Siv. "Tempestclan, go there and seek out a black tom, if I recall he goes by the name of Voidstrike. Find out anything and everything about him and bring such news to me, as well as any other points of interest you may come across." He told her. "Those are my terms, and should you agree to them there is no turning back for you." He added. He hoped she knew that he meant if she backed out of this deal after she had agreed to it then he would basically hunt her down and make sure that she paid for it. He wasn't going to share all of what he knew with the she-cat. The real deal was that Voidstrike was his brother and as far as he knew he was a Tempestclan warrior, but he wanted to know more. "Are you in?" He asked, his famous cunning smirk appearing upon his maw.

-.Siv knew what she was getting herself into. Her ears caught his words but the meaning didn't register. She was too busy thinking. Part of her wanted to turn and run, just go back on the deal and forget she had ever started it. Shard had always been priority in her book and now the rusty colored she-cat was realizing that perhaps it was because he was something different. He wasn't just another tom on the list that she had always had...he was on another list...and the only on that list. He had always been the one she wanted to impress, the one that maybe might have meant a tiny bit of something. The one that could possibly change the way she saw the world...and possibly take some part of her that was nothing, and make it something. Her amber eyes just stared, watching him. By now she had started to think, and not of the mission she would soon be on...but of him.

But a single movement pulled her from the deep depths of her mind and back into the present moment. He had flicked grass from his claw, and moved to look at her. Now she would need to listen. Tempestclan, she didn't know much about them...nor did she know much about the other clans...but she knew enough to get herself in and get herself where she wanted. It was that or death at this point. As his last words were said she watched the smirk appear on his face. Siv couldn't help but smirk back, her eyes burning with excitement. "I'd be crazy not to be." She didn't move, just watched. Her voice was calm and collected, but as for the rest of her body...she wasn't sure. Something told her this was the wrong way to go...that if she wanted this tom as she thought she might...then she'd do it the right way. But sometimes, the wrong was the way to the right.

Just like that the she-cat sold her soul over to him. He had a feeling that it might be something that she would come to regret as most others did in time. He nodded to her which meant that there was no turning back but that also meant he had to follow through with his part of the deal. Of course those soft hearted clan cats couldn't ignore kits or a she-cat expecting kits. If he recalled correctly it was part of their warrior code and Starclan might curse them if they didn't follow the warrior code. What a pity. Starclan weren't there to protect them they only brought the clans closer to danger, why believe in such a pointless thing? Personally he didn't see it and he probably never would. Although, it was a good opportunity for him to torment groups of cats which he took great pleasure and amusement from since it wasn't as though there was much else to do around here in the rural lands of the countryside. He was born a city cat and would always be a city cat at heart, but he was particularly fond of this little community he had stumbled upon in the rural country.

Thr atmosphere had gone from tense to very calm in the time the two had met and come up with their deal. Slowly he realized that normally he would have been tense and resentful to such a conversation where as now he found himself a bit more relaxed around her and it was probably because he had eventually come out on top and that she was no longer a threat to him. A simple fling was no risk to his power, it wasn't as though it was something he hadn't done before and it wasn't as though he minded, any kits of his were strong kits indeed. "So I had better hold up my end of the bargain then." He said with a small smirk. The difference between him and Siv was that she wanted more out of this than he did, and so he would be interested to see how their little relationship played out. "Come find me later." He added and flicked her over the ear with his tail. Turning he began to pad away into the distance. If he was as concerned with his life as he assumed she was then she would know his regular sleeping place under the rocky overhang.
