The sun was just dipping behind the mountains as a large black tom moved from shadow to shadow with a look of purpose in his ice blue eyes. He kept alerting knowing this was the time for all assassins to be about and he didn't feel like getting into a fight this night... well... Anyways everytime Entreri heard a scuffle or even just sensed someone nearby he would stop and dicipher if it was the tom he was looking for... Unfortunately it never was. He was starting to get impatient as the moon slowly rose higher...
Why could he never find VampireBat when he wanted to find him but when he didn't care to see him he always showed up. He had no answer for himself so just shook his head a strode on. Entreri was now pretty big, larger then Comet by now.. well only slightly but still he was. He spent most of his time off on his own wandering 'round the rogues as Lithy was in BogClan alot... though she visited frequently she couldn't stay around all the time and his siblings but Kyla were dead... no need to remind him of that... Kyla was weird, she'd never stayed with the group even when they were kits so much less now that they were older and stronger. Finally Entreri caught sight of two blood red eyes, though that wasn't saying much as a good many of the VampireBat kin have red eyes... for some reason though Entreri felt like this was him. They were off in the distance almost... looked like they were stalking something.. not that big of a surprise. Entreri crept forward silently but purposefully making a very soft noise that he knew VampireBat would hear so he wouldn't attack or whatever... at least hopefully
(Ember Only plz... At least for now anyways)

Those eyes sharply turned on Entreri, loosing sight of the little Gypsy tom they were stalking.
VampireBat grinned hugely at the sight of his nephew. In what seemed seconds, the assassin was right in front of Entreri, only a couple of feet away.
"Why, why, you've grown! I believe you're taller than I... How.. hmm, interesting, shall I say. You remind me of... nevermind."
For once, a defensive, almost fearful, look flashed on the killer's face. But it was gone in half a second.
He twitched his whiskers and sat, then stretched his long front legs, flexing his claws. "What brings you here?"

(Nephew would be more accurate Embery XD)
Entreri stared at VampireBat for a moment wondering what he had been about to say, but he didn't care enough to actually ask. He just shrugged in answer to his question "I need a.... favor I suppose.... One that I need you for" He meowed... his eyes narrowing to icy blue slits as he actually thought of what he was going to do... wierd reaction. He watched VampireBat a slight smile on his face waiting for his reaction.... anytime now.

((Gah. Sorry. I've been brainwashed. xP
Fixed! ^^))
The dark cat clicked his tongue. "What's in it for me, hm? Tell me what it is, and we'll see. I usually don't do favors. It's a loss business," he sighed. "This is an exception, lad."

(XD EmberySteph, I think you need to look over the family a bit more lol)
Entreri rolled his eyes "Look I just want some training, more advanced training then I can get just going over routines like I usually do... sure it makes those moves perfectly in sync with eachother but doesn't help well with variety and variety is a key factor. Just name your price and I can see what I can do a bout fullfilling it" He meowed seriously... He totally hated that he had to go up and ask for more training and that he couldn't do it himself, but... sometimes you have to sit down and swallow your pride to better yourself... This was one of those times. "If you want to know the reason, its as simple as me taking out someone... someone well known, not of THIS family but a rival family...." He explained... that narrowed the person down... there were only so many rival families to the VampireBat line and it was obvious he was telling the truth about it not being of HIS family therefore ruling VampireBat otu, in case he was suspicious.

((I am so tempted on saying "The price? Come over to the dark side, punk." xD))
An evil smile stretched up against VampireBat's face.
"The price? Ah, let me think." He clicked his tongue again. "Blood. You will need to drink blood."
But another thought was building up inside his head.
"And you will need to kill your sister, Kyla."

(Well, I could totally go with the dark side one lol)
Entreri snorted, "Yeah, that would defeat the purpose O' Great VampireBat. Killing Kyla off now... yeah... not happening" He replied cooly... worst case scenario he'd just have to live with the fact that he couldn't get VampireBat's help... maybe go on a journey for awhile, there were other cats somewhere and their 'training' would give his moves variety... Training as in fighting them to the death sorta thing. Orrr... he could always just risk death trying to kill Death... yeah that could possibly work out good. "Blood isn't THAT bad, a little barbaric, in my opinion but if they're already dead then they won't be needing it anymore I wouldn't suppose" He continued.

He shook his head. "Always drink the blood when the prey is still alive. It is easier, because the heart still pumps it through the body, and so it comes more easily. We might have vampire-like fangs, but we incapable of sucking like an actual vampire through our fangs. Don't listen to those stories to scare the kits about us," he meowed, sounded bored.
"Oh, no need to kill Kyla now. Everything in it's time. Only you need to swear to AbyssClan that you will, one day. If not, then you're on your own."
His red eyes bored into Entreri's, not breaking eye contact. He waited for the answer, for a choice.

Entreri thought a moment, but decided that he wasn't going to kill Kyla, nope, he'd already killed Vierna so no more with that.... "All well then, See ya' later VampireBat. Hope we don't meet again" He called getting to his paws and walking away. "Happy hunting" He added his ice blue eyes flicking toward where that gypsy tom was still stupidly hanging around for who knows why.

Huh. That was not the answer VampireBat had been expecting. He simply shrugged.
He was about to turn around and finish of with the lost gypsy, when suddenly he collapsed on the ground..

Entreri turned his ice blue eyes to look at VampireBat curiously. His eyes narrowed in deliberation on whether VampireBat was pretending or not... It could be a trap... after all VampireBat wasn't known to let cats that defy him leave alive. Entreri shrugged and walked over, keeping on his toes and extremely alert to everything around him in case VampireBat just jumped up and attacked... It never hurt to be slightly paranoid. Entreri poked him with a claw "Hey, what are you doin'? Get up you dolt" He grumbled staying just alert that he could dodge any lethal blow.

Gah. Why now? Couldn't this of happened another time?
He grumbled something, and got up shakily. How humiliating that someone had seen him.. And his own nephew, too.
"Nothin'. Just tripped," he lied. Poor lie, since he was shaking and looked as if he were to fall again. He took an unsteady step forward, as if to walk away..

Entreri nodded "Yeah I bet" With that he smiled mischeviously and tackled VampireBat. He made quick work in pinning him to the ground firmly and being careful to stay out of VampireBat's paws that held the dangerous claws and away from his mouth. "Would you like to rethink my favor?" Entreri asked his ice blue eyes narrowed looked down at VampireBat.... He knew he was walking a dangerous line here, but he knew you would never get anywhere if you never took a dare. Sometimes you have to take chances. "I would hate to have to kill you now, what a waste of talent... but then again.... its not everyday that you come across a chance to kill a legendary assassin..." He sneered
(Don't kill him Embery plzith!)

"Entreri? where are you?! ugh... this is why you need a home damnit!!" Kyla had been trying to track her brother down for the last two weeks, she needed a favor from him, and important one too, gah! he was so hard to find...

Entreri's head swiveled to the side from where Kyla's voice had just carried across. She hadn't yet gotten into eye sight view so he ignored her for the moment. "Hurry up with the answer! If you wait too long I'll have a witness for finishing you off and I'm sure you would dislike that more." He was running out of time... If VampireBat quickly agreed he could be able to get to his paws before Kyla got here and it would look as if they were just chatting.... His ice blue eyes were narrowed and one of his long sharp claws slid slightly out of its sheath at the base of VampireBat's throat.

If it wasn't for the terrible aching pain running through his whole body, VampireBat would of totally killed him. He deserved it. But now it took all his strength to just not cry out from the pain, or to even just keep his eyes open and pay attention.
He wanted absolutely no one to see this. If Entreri's sister arrived, his secret will spread. He didn't had much choice, as his only point was to stay alive.
He took a deep breath, and said, obviously forcing the words out, "One favor. No more." He winced. How pathetic he sounded. Well, to his ears. To the others, his voice would sound sharp and cold..

Entreri jumped off of him in one sweep landing a few taillenghts away. "We start training tomorrow, now I still don't think that you could pull off being well so I'll go confront my sister before she gets here... I guess you can do whatever it is you do when you're in that condition." He meowed coldly and then started walking toward where Kyla was coming from walking at a slight angle so that he would head her off before she came in close sight with VampireBat.

VampireBat wanted to stuck out his tongue at his nephew, but that would be childish. "Fine," he grumbled.
He was starting to feel a little numb.
He rolled on his stomach and put his weight on his paws, lifting him up in a standing position. He was still shaking, as if he were freezing or something, and his expression was a tight grimace.
It was still night. That was good.
And, just like that, he wasn't there anymore. He will come back here, same time, same place, tomorrow.

"Entreri! jeez, that is IT I'm going to find you a place to live, and you will be there at least once a day.. kapeesh?" She said sighing, only the hint of her furious insanity in her eyes and voice, mostly the fury part.... "I need a favor...." how little did she know that was how the LAST conversation Entreri had just had started....

"Favor eh? I don't really like favors, but shoot" Entreri replied sitting down and licking one of his black paws. His ice blue eyes stayed focused on Kyla judging her expression trying to figure out what the favor had to do with, but he got nothing.. Kyla was too crazy to figure anthing out. Entreri completely ignored the comment about Kyla finding him a home... No home, Entreri was a wanderer and he liked it.

"Well you see... I made this deal... with Death... and ah I know what you are going to say 'god Kyla? why the hell did you do that? do you WANT to die? are you retarded?' no I like life..." she had used a low mockery of Entreri's voice for her little berating of herself. "Anyway, so she wanted ME of all people, she might be crazier'n me, to mate with her grandson, Sabor or shvatever... so I kinda did... but I was talking to uhhh.. Wraith, anyway, yeah I was talking to wraith, that is one creepy she-cat you know? you and her would get along REAAAAALLY well! sorry, distractin meh-self again..... anyways, and Death will kidnap my kits after I have them, and I don't want that to happen! sooo... I was wonderin...." she paused to look a t a bird hopping a couple feet away, she was hungry.. pregnancy did that to you... she launched at it taking it down easily, in a puff of feathers and blood, she devoured it quickly....

Entreri froze "God Kyla, Why the hell did you do that!?" He hissed his eyes narrowing even more.... Kyla's interpretation obviously had been quite accurate and he didn't even realize that that was what she had just said. "Wait BACK UP... I heard somethin' about kits and Death and a cat named Wraith that I'd get along with... First I don't like the Death family so no Wraith and I would NOT get along well, Second, Death taking your kits? I don't think so. Nope ain't going to happen." He growled completely positive in himself...

"uhh well you see, I had teh choice of doing it, or dying.. and I'd really rather live, because despite the fact I'm probably stronger than death, her family is bigger than mine, because guess what, I'm all alone!" she grinned with a sarcastic 'see, this is Your fault' grin. "Anyway... I know she will take my kits, and I accept that, she chose me to make her line stronger, whatever, I really don't care that much, I guess, but I want at least one of my kits to stay free of their influence... I want one of them to be raised by YOU." she looked at her paws. "there is no hope for the two of us to fend off the entire Death family, and if she pulls any strings she'll have more than just her family Entreri, I am willing to settle with knowing one of my kits is safe in your care... you have to be there right after they are born... and you can choose which kit you take with you... but keep that one kit safe, treat her like your own.. please.. for me?" she was begging now.

(Well, that its nice, very convenient)
Entreri had a very annoyed expression on his face as she finished her favor. First he didn't like other cats tellling him either he couldn't do something or he wasn't capable of doing something. Second she was pretty much blaming it all on him in her own sarcastic way in which she wasn't really blaming him but was at the same time. Third, quite frankly he didn't really want a little fuzzball following him around. Fourth, yet despite all those things he couldn't just say no, that would be more heartless then heartless... and it was his sister and she was actually talking serious and not crazy-talk at the moment. "Fine whatever Kyla" He grumbled. He wasn't in the mood to fight, maybe later but not now..... He still wasn't going to let Death get away with that without a fight but he would have to think this through first.... A sudden thought struck him... He had no idea where Kyla stayed most of the time... Wow, he must have been living under a rock. "So Kyla, where do you even hang out?" Entreri asked rolling his ice blue eyes.
