Of Course, You Show Up Here...

[NIXX]

(OOC: And so it begins!!!! Asher )

Tarmac crouched down low to the ground his eyes trained on the squrriel not 3 feet away from him. He had been trying to catch dinner for the past forty-five minutes, he was wasting more energy trying to eat than not eating. He moved slowly closer, making sure to place each paw in just the right spot. Oh, he was going to eat good tonight! No lizzards for him! He prepared himself to pounce on the un suspecting squrriel when out of nowhere a branch snapped and the squrriel ran off.

The tom hissed out, whipping his body around towards the sound of the stick snap. "Show yourself," He called out, "You just cost me a meal! So come out before I come to you!" He threatend, pulling himself up to his full height, his large body looking quite intimidating to most cats.  

[Asher]

Faolan smirked in the bushes as the cat tried to look large. He's puny compared to me. He may think he's huge but I could crush him with one paw. The tom crept forward hissing as he went. "So sorry you missed your dinner, kittypet. Maybe you should cry to your twolegs and ring your little bell!" Faolan loved taunting other cats. The white tom kept creeping forward. "You should be sccared around me kitty."

[NIXX]

Tarmac hissed at the other tom, it was laughable that this cat saw him as a kittypet. It had been years since Tarmac had lived in a twolegs nest and even then he spent most his days outside. The hair on the back of his neck raised as he took steps closer tot eh tom that was threatening him. "Oh, and what is so scary about you, hmmm? He asked his empty green eyes stared unmoving at the mysterious tom. "Wait, I know what it is! It's how ugly you look!" Yes, it was childish and not exactly the best insult but Tarmac was hungry, annoyed, and done with the tom infront of him.

[Asher]

Faolan snorted. "What are you, a kit? You must be, that's the worst insult I have ever heard!" Faolan pounced on a mouse that skidded by them. Then he dropped it at Tarmac's paws. "Here's your lost meal, kittypet." Faolan circled this new tom confidently. His face looks similar to mine...

[NIXX]

Tarmac would not allow himself to be circled around like he was prey, he began circle this overly confident tom. He watched the other, looking for weak spots to attack, any signs that the other would make a move of attack. It seemed he had found what he was looking for, he prepared himself to launch on the other cat, when something stopped him. He knew that voice, there were very few cats in this world that he even talked to. So, narrowing it down he knew. "No, it can't be!"  An evil smile made its way onto Tarmac's dark face, his eyes displayed rage, the first emotion they had shown throughout the whole ordeal. He let out an almost evil sounding laugh as he stopped moving and rolled over onto his side. When he had his fill of laughter he looked up at the tom he now recognized. "What you don't remember me?"

[Asher]

Faolan frowned. Who is this strange tom? He knows me! "I have no idea who you think you are!" he hissed. Faolan unsheathed his claws. "Run away now, kittypet before I kill you." Faolan had killed cats before. Cats who got in his way or challenged him. And I would do any of it again in a heartbeat.

[NIXX]

Tarmac chuckled at the tom treatening him, he got back onto his feet. HIs whole body was relaxed even with the otther tom ready to kill him. "Oh, but you won't kill me." He stated, moving so now he was circling the younger tom, "You want to know why you won't?" He continued his circling every now and then using his tail to flick at the fur of the tom. In a very low, almost a sinister whisper, he gave him the answer. "You wouldn't dare kill your brother would you? Espically your oldest brother?"

[Asher]

Faolan gasped in amazement. "Tarmac?! Is it really you! It's me, Faolan!" This is my long lost brother! I thought my family was dead but here he is, alive! "Where have you been all these years? I've missed you so much! Do you know where are sisters are?"

OOC: I just forgot, Faolan's app hasn't been accepted yet so I can't play him until it is... I won't be replying again until it is so it might take longer than usual.

[NIXX]

"Where have I been all these years?"Tarmac spat out the words, glaring over at his brother. He snarled as he stalked around his brother, growling as he did. "You were the one that left! So did all the others! You left me there!" He finally stopped circling, sitting down infront of his brother, his eyes cold and empty as he stared at him with hatred.

[Asher]

Faolan almost felt tears well up in his eyes. Almost. "Tarmac, I didn't run away. Our Twolegs said I was sick, so they took me away to the Cutter. When they were talking, I ran into the forest. I never wanted to leave..." Faolan hoped Tarmac understood that he had not left on purpose.

OOC: Sorry for the wait. I'll tag you in case you forgot about this!

[NIXX]

Tarmac's whole body was tense, he couldn't decide if he should believe his brother or not. Maybe he was telling the truth or he could be lying just to turn around and stab Tarmac in the back yet again. A low growl started in the older tom's throat, as he remembered the pain of being the only one left. The unloved sibling. "Why didn't you tell me then?!" He barely managed to growl out between his clenched jaw. "Why didn't you come back and tell me?"His voice was softer now almost broken sounding, yet his posture hadn't changed a bit.

[Asher]

Faolan shook his head in frustration with his brother. "You really don't understand, do you. The only way to escape was to attack our owners. I hurt the male Twoleg. If I went back, he might kill me. If it was you, you would be too afraid to come back too. I did the only sensible thing which was to run and not look back."

[NIXX]

Tarmac growled and looked down at his paws, he knew deep down his brother was right but it felt like betrayal. "No, you don't understand! I thought you were dead! And then everyone else left me! Do you not get it! My family left me every last one left me!" The large cats body had sagged, no longer were his muscles taught and ready for a fight. he was breaking. The tom had promised himself he would never break like this not after he had been like this overtime one of his siblings left. "but you're okay now, that's something." He didn't look up at Faolan, his eyes were still focused on the ground searching for something.

[Asher]

"Brother, I don't know how the others left, but I'm sure they didn't just leave without a reason. They wouldn't ever do that." Faolan stared at his brother, who seemed to be giving up. "Tarmac, why don't you come with me. We can find our other siblings if it makes you happy. Then, maybe we can all live like we used to."

[NIXX]

Tarmac's whole body was shaking. He didn't know what to believe. It made sense everything his younger brother was saying made complete since but there was just something he couldn't get over. The large tom's eyes darted over to his brother as he began to pace back and forth, in an almost panicked state.
"I just wanna know why. I just don't get why you couldn't tell me!" The rage was back, but it was pointed more towards himself, he should have seen what was going on, should have known. "I could have fixed it!"
