Her head, set level with her borad, capable shoulders, swung to the side, casting her mate a sidelong glance, to see what the reaction of their betraying daughter would be to him. Would he kill her? Would she even bother stopping herm ate from slaughtering her baby? Spectre was always her favorite, and before that gathering, it seemed that the slender, beautiful little apprentice would go on to be a high-standing, powerful MaliceClan warrior. Maybe even council, she'd make a good little lusty she-cat. No. She'd chosen the clan. ZephyrClan, she'd chosen the soft comforts of clan life and StarClan, she had left behind her family to die and rot between the claws of her new best pals, and now what? Inside of replying to Spectrelight. Spectrelight, a clan name. Scarletsnow instead blinked then snorted. "Look who's got good judgement now, Phantomcry." The long-haired dirty white warrior was victorious, and her words oozed pleasure. "I spied out the deputy! Now what fun would it have been to catch those two plain old warriors? Heck, that one didn't even look like a warrior!" Her laugh was strained and rasping, however satisfied as she was, Spectrelight was looming higher over her than the biggest mountain. Drawing herself up, Scarletsnow gathered her presense and dignity about herself like a noble cape, looking down upon the other she-cat with a dead gaze. "And so what do you seek us for? Why din't you bother help your darling deputy? What do you want?" Her voice, instead of questioning, held subtle challenge, and a touch of general curiosity, flared up by her unknowning. How frustrating!

"I missed you." she admitted, but she felt pathetic after it. So with a little smirk she looked back at her mother. "Shard can't take over the clans anymore without me." She meowed with a smug little smile. "Two clans have already merged, there are about fifty cats in it, my leader had just disappeared, and the deputy is now dead, Vertigoclan will probably take over, which will make about sixty cats." She added. what did she have to lose? Larkstar was now dead, she did not see why she stuck around any longer. Larkstar had been the cat she looked up to, but no longer did the she-cat walk this earth. "We aren't really in much of a position to get those kits back, so looks like you can keep them, but the clans are stronger, but they are distracted, so, would you like my help?" She asked gently. Her tail curled at the tip and she dared to look down at Titanheart. Not that she ever talked to the tom. Anyway she could get back into Delirium the better.

Scarletsnow trembled with the effort not to throw her head back and let out a hysterically amused cackle, no, she kept her composure, her deeply sarcastic composure, everything in her posture and gaze oozed confidence in that smug way which would make anycat want to claw out her eyes, regaurdless of words she spoke. She had enough ego to go around, and this little she-cat, daughter or not, was dangeorulsy clsoe to stepping on it. "We can't take over without you?" The corners of her maw pulled back into an expression of terror, like a mother whose kits were presently being slaughtered before her very eyes. But that twinkle n those topaz lights gave away the mocking mask beneath. "Oh dear, what shall Delirium ever do without a scrawny little she-cat, pretending to work for both sides? Oh! I know," She snorted, "We'll keep on like we have. Dearest, if you haven't noticed, we've been doing quite alright. We've killed three leaders, yeah three, you'll find Wreathedstar isn't around much any more when you get back to your prescious clan. Not to mention two deputies." The big warrior sat down neatly, curling her tail about her paws and picking up one, rasping her tongue across casually. "You see, if you would like to betray yet another family, have a chat with Shard. I'm in no position to say, but, darling, I'd make up your mind soon. Where is your loyalty?" The last sentence upruptly turned her face into a hostile grimace as she snarled the words, almost an accusation. She still was fueding with herself. So Scarletsnow? Do you love her? Are you gonna push her away, or will you bring her back?

Spectrelight narrowed her eyes, hurt. She didn't know what to say. Why had she come over here? Did she love her mother or didn't she? All this time she had been longing to see her, now she wanted to throw dirt in her face and claw her ears off. Why would she want to be in Delirium? Why would she want to go back? Something told her she could talk Shard round, but could she really be bothered with it all? "What family?" She sneered. Was Scarletsnow her family? She was not acting like it. She had no family here. None at all. She hadn't even made any friends. That's what she got for being the leader's pet. She had loved Larkstar. "If you don't want me then say so." She spat, taking a step back, she could easily leave couldn't she? Why would she want to be here? "I don't care anymore." she hissed.

"You don't care!" Scarletsnow trilled with rough amusement. "You don't care? I wouldn't believe that for a moment you deathly sickened poor child!" Her deep voice was cruel and cold, sharp too as she narrowed her striking orange eyes. "Then why, pray tell, did you just stand by and watch your deputy get murdered? Why are you here? Begging for pity? Begging to be dragged back to Delirium to 'help'?" Scarletsnow threw back her head and let out a short bark,. then glared once more at her daughter, eyes twinkling. "You're looking for mercy and pity from Delirium. Darling, this is a clan of thieves and murderers. Not only that, but a clan of thieves and murderers who you betrayed." She drew out the word, though flicking her tail as if she didn't give it a second thought, but she did, and the burly white she-cat suddenly held Spectrelight's gaze. "You don't know how much you hurt me. You can't imagine. You were always my favorite. my sweet, dear little Spectre. You had so much potential. I couldn't wait to see you grow up and become a strong mother with many beautiful litters, and on the side of that, a powerful fighter with the smarts of a true maliceClan descendant. No. I was wrong. Maybe I was lying to myself that whole time. But i honestly didn't see it in you, that you would turn your back on your family and come here. Worse, I never, ever imagined that you'd be back, asking to be accepted again. You really are ill, aren't you?" This weak feeling, the way that tears scorched her throat and stung her eyes, so vulnerable to weeping, made Scarletsnow want to scream. Trembling in a sudden rage that over came her, she looked once more at her daughter and turned to her mate, twitching her tailtip. "Shall we depart? You know this excitement is a little exhilarating." She managed a small purr at Phantomcry, winking once.

Spectrelight let out a snort and rolled her eyes as she turned to pad away from the two cats whom she thought she knew, but really she knew nothing of them. Her patterned fur bristled with annoyance. What did they know? Did they know how close she had been to Larkstar? Those idiots. Wait, did they kill Larkstar? She whipped back around her eyes dull, grave, dark and emotionless, if that was even possible for such vivid blue eyes. "Did you kill Larkstar?" She hissed through gritted teeth, her muscles tensing. That was not all that annoyed her though. "Favourite?" She hissed and her eyes narrowed, now showing annoyance. "You know I left because I felt like I didn't belong, you didn't help with that, and you didn't treat my like some sort of favourite either." The she-cat spat. As she watched her mother turn away she rolled her eyes again. "That's right, ignore me just like you used to, like that's really going to help, but since the weak Delirium are stealing kits, would it be wise for them to turn down another, a she-cat also, who could have more kits." She chuckled. "Hm, I didn't think so." She hissed. Her eyes flicked to her father and back. He seemed to not want to be here. Still, he was beside her mother with his tail wrapped around her comforting her. Idiot.

"I didn't kill Larkstar. Though I wish I could have scored my claws through the snide old witch's fur. Praise be Eclipseomen for that one. And, no. I din't know that. You stupid, stupid disloyal wretch! You treated me just like always, strong and smiling. You were such a suck-up really, weren't you? You didn't love your mother. You were manipulating. We all are, aren't we?" Scarletsnow chuckled softly, letting her tail sway as she leaned into her mate. None of Spectrelight's litter was left. She wasn't her daughter anymore. She was just another one of them. She couldn't even see how she hurt her mother could she? "I didn't treat you like any sort of favorite? Oh look who's the spoiled, ungrateful little brat now." The Delirium warrior purred amusedly, as if laughing at a kit for falling in a mud-pool. "We don't need you. Go back to your little clan friends. Go be merry and cheerful. Go be weak and lonely. I don't care, but don't act like I am at fault here. Yes I kill. I enjoy it quite alot. But I don't betray my family. I don't betray those who I love, and I don't accept it when it's done to me. You think I'm turning you away? I'm not. You want to come back to Delirium? I know you don't. I don't know what your plan is.. oh. You want those kits back for your clan don't you? Well have at it. Follow us home. Go beg to Shard. Have at it, I won't stop you, but Spectrelight, you aren't my daughter. You're crowfood to me."

The she-cat sneered at the large she-cat before her. "Manipulating then? Oh I wonder who I got that from, and I do wonder who I got my attitude from then too." She chuckled. She looked at her father and snorted. He certainly was not like her, he was likable, and often appeared care free, but really he enjoyed the killing he got done, oh and he was strong too, clearly, just not in touch with his emotions, how typical for a tom. "Love? What amount of love did you show me apart from some food?" The she-cat spat, rolling her eyes. What a shame, her poor mother was actually hurt, she had feelings under all that fur? "Merry and cheerful, weak and lonely? I am strong and lonely actually." She hissed with narrowed eyes. As for the kits, god could she care less? Her tail lashed as she growled at them both. "The only reason I told my clan I wanted to come and get those wretched things was to see you, but that was a mistake, just like me thinking it was a good idea." She growled. Her tail lashed angrily. "I am crow food? Why don't you kill me and bury me then?" She added.

"Deaf, ungrateful, stupid, and ill. What a combination, Spectre. You only argue like this, with your pointless speeches and hollow accusations, because you know that I'm right. You know your betrayal. Even the lowest Delirium murders don't betray, even a fool like you understands, don't you? A pray hope so, otherwise there is no hope left for you. I hope. I hope so heavily to your dear, pitiful TwinkleClan that you land the lowest most pathetic tom for a mate, and I hope he bears you many disgusting kits. I hope they're all as ungrateful, disloyal, and unintelligent as you are, just so you can understand what the hell you're talking about, because you don't. You're only defending yourself. You're covering up your hurt with anger. Well I'm not. I'm hurt. You dug deep when that stupid Shard told me all my children, even my beautiful little Spectre, were dead or ran off to live away from me. I didn't believe him, no. I thought, surely my baby Spectre was killed. Killed in her glory, perhaps at a young age, but fighting for her family and her pride. But here you are. Beautiful and in your prime, with a clan. You had turned your back on me!" Scarletsnow shook her head slowly, averting her torn orange eyes sorrowfully. "Kill you?" She gavea short, quite snort. "You poor child, you really don't understand, do you? I can't kill you. You rip out my heart and smear it across your silly clan borders, but I couldn't score you with my claws just once. You always had the most potential. Rainpaw? So bubbly and stupid, an airhead if I ever saw. Basilpaw, sickly and scrawny. Evanesce? Good lord, she was just an annoying little slut. I had another litter. Didn't I tell you before you scampered off at that battle? I don't know. I might have, but you've probably forgotten. I had three healthy sons and a daughter. Well Shatter couldn't compare in the least. I nearly killed her myself this morning. Immortalpaw is a little quiet, but he's strong and healthy. Toxicpaw, he'll be a killer. He's a big tom, long claws and a knack for poison. Fallenpaw is muscular, but stupid, the toms are alright. But I'll never have another daughter. I did treat you well. Even if you refuse to remember, if only because it would wound your poor pride." Scarletsnow finally sighed, as if defeated, then glanced around. If any other ZephyrClan cat had seen this meeting, they would be immediately killed, but she wasn't sure if she had enough energy left for that. Spectrelight had drained her.

Not much time =/
Spectrelight sighed. She knew her mother would not back down to anything she said. It was not worth it. It wasn't worth her time. It hadn't been like she had thought. Why had she been so stupid? Deaf? No. She knew. One of them had to back down, and it sure as hell would not be her mother. So it would be her. "Surely you would know the logic of a she-cats thinking though, I would be surprised if you didn't." She meowed and took a regretful step away from the two. "Even if what you have said proves I'm not crow food to you, I should be going now, the reason I wanted to see you was I remembered the love you gave me - but it doesn't matter anymore I guess." She meowed. Maybe in this mess she could switch clans or something? She had only been loyal to Larkstar, she really wanted to slit Eclipseomen's throat for that. A life for a life, only fair right? Shaking the thought from her head she lifted her tail to wave farewell "Bye." She meowed. Her eyes began to twinkle in the light from the tears that were in them, quickly turning away she began to pad up the hill towards camp, not in any sort of hurry. Oh, but she would be. She would tell them why and how Titanheart had died. Pressing her pelt against a sharp rock she made a cut. Blood began to spill from it as she made her way to camp. The two cats had better get a move on. The wound stung, but she didn't care, she didn't want to appear a disloyal warrior, without even a scratch.

Disbelief blazing in her once more furious orange eyes, Scarletsnow tilted her head slightly and swung around to face her mate. "To remember the love I gave her? Wait just one moment, I swear she was just arguing passionately to me about how I never loved her like an ungracious brat?" She snorted incredulously. "Amazing! I thought my one favorite child would turn out so good, but it looked like these clan idiots sucked the brains she had right out of her, she's one of them now. She's not my Spectre, Phantomcry." Spectrelight's mother heaved a sighed and turned, twitching her whiskers, thoroughly disappointed at the she-cat she once knew. "Well, we better get back to Shard and let him know that we knocked off ZephyrClan's deputy. They're in a weak spot. We should attack them soon, shouldn't we?" Forgetting about the stress her daughter had dumped on her, Scarletsnow gave a light chuckle and began to trot in the direction they came from, Delirium.
--SCARLET TO DELLLLLLL!--

Phantomcry watched his daughter go. Just like that. He was a little confused. He didn't really understnad what had just happened. "Uh...?" He meowed slightly lost for words. Rather, totally lost for words. "But I thought you wanted her back?" He asked trailing after his mate. She-cats!!! Honeslty! could they never make up their minds? He kept his maw shut though, he was smart enough to do that and padded along beside his mate. "Don't woorry, this litter wont dissapoint you when they become warriors, or maybe the next one." He purred with a chuckle. Catching the look she gave him he shut up and boubded after her. "Shard, who is he again?" The tom snorted with a chuckle.
