Aloepaw/Andri((ohh gosh willow is not in the state for this, i don't think i've ever dreaded a thread so much ;A; my baby's gonnna burn.))
Willowpaw was out in the territory, practicing her fighting moves. Her mind was completely blank, and she forced every thought, every insecurity, doubt, and burst of anger, out of her head. She needed to be focused. Almondp-fire was a good fighter, and though Willowpaw could certainly beat her, it wouldn't be easy, and there was a chance of Almondfire coming out on top.
The silvery tabby paused her practice for a moment to take a walk and allow herself to catch her breath. Willowpaw was even starting to enjoy herself. Then, a familiar scent hit her, one that she hadn't smelled in what felt like moons.
She located the dark cat, and approached him with a sneer. She was not Brightpaw, and she would not avoid him.
"Aloepaw."

o(╥﹏╥)o
Aloepaw had been hunting, since basically training with Amberflash was always going to be a nightmare to endure. Uuurgh, he hated it. Why couldn't he have been given a normal mentor? Even one like his mother Pinyondapple would of been better than his demon mentor.
Currently, he had been out in the territory since early morning. Which was unsual for the tomcat, being he wasn't the most dedicated to FireClan. But as ditching his duties for a moon really left him behind, Aloepaw was beginning to understand that if he didn't start trying, he was going to be extremely screwed over.
Early morning led to the time right now. And still, he only had a mouse caught. And it was the one he luckily snatched up a few seconds ago. Which was when he was approached, the hunting adrenaline just leaving Aloepaw's system, and prey dangling from his jaws. He gave Willowpaw a confused stare for a moment, before he blinked in realization.
"Oh-- Willow-whine, you're still alive?" he teased, dropping the mouse carelessly. Of course, Aloepaw already knew from his older sister that Willowpaw was still around. But still, that didn't mean he couldn't hope she'd drop over dead one night.

Willowpaw narrowed her eyes at her brother, her tail slowly flicking back and forth. Having spent so much time training, she was much, much more muscular, as well as bigger than she'd been as a kit, and her pelt had a glossy shine. He looked so utterly weak, she was tempted to end his life. It would be so easy, all she would have to do was pin him down and slash his throat. It would take seconds, and he would be gone, and Almondfire would be alone, meaning that taking her down would be all the easier.
"I should be asking you that." Willowpaw retorted. After all, she wasn't the one who had completely vanished off the surface of the Earth. "You're still using that old nick-name, how boring." It was getting tiresome, getting called that awful name.
"Go ahead, say it again." Willowpaw unsheathed her claws, making her threat known. She didn't doubt that she could out speed him, it would be delightful.
"Or we could talk."

Aloepaw could sense the dark aura around his sister. And he narrowed her eyes at her glare. 'She's... waaay different.' he thought. It was almost a big worrying. Especially since Aloepaw hadn't been getting enough training to be any good in a fight. He should really practice with Almondfire....
He huffed at her response. "It's just a nickname. Jeez, you need to chill a little bit." he chuckled, with a mocking smile. 'I don't like this new Willowpaw. I thought Almondfire said she was no different?'
He blinked at her. This was a power trip. And of course, Aloepaw could never be the one without power.
"Let's just talk, Willow-whine." he said in a dull tone. Thus making the nickname more of a bored name, than a cruel insult. Would she still attack him with that? "Like, for example, what's up with you. I didn't expect to come back to FireClan and find you and Brightpaw really creepy all of a sudden. Doesn't fit you guys at all."

Willowpaw's eyes blazed with fury as he went against her, insisting on calling her that name. She decided to hold her ground, at least for the moment. He was talking to her, and as an actual cat, not like a tick in his pelt.
Every part of her longed to kill him. Oh, he would pay for how he'd treated her. Not yet, but eventually. Brightpaw didn't have to be there for it, she didn't deserve to see it. Brightpaw had said their relationship was set back a few moons, but in Willowpaw's eyes, it was dead.
"I was a kit when you left. Of course I've changed." Willowpaw said condescendingly, lashing her tail. "I'm not being creepy, Brightpaw's the only one with damage." Loathing filled her voice as she brought up Brightpaw.
"I'm being sensible, and I'm not letting you or Almondfire push me around anymore."

Aloepaw couldn't really fight with that logic. He had ran off the moment his Clan allowed him out of camp. Probably not the best example of responsibility, but oh well, it was still fun to relax outside of FireClan for awhile. And away from all these annoying sisters.
Her condescending tone made his ear twitch in annoyance, but his cool smile remained. In fact, he seemed to be gaining confidence in being the one in control. It was always a power trip for him, even without realizing it. And Aloepaw felt power in being the sensible one in a situation.
"Well, you're creeping me out. Maybe calm down a bit." he suggested in the same dull voice, then gave his shoulders a carefree shrug. He looked relaxed, actually, even if his mind was blaring with warnings at Willowpaw's behavior. "And can't deny that. Brightpaw seems to have flipped off her sanity a bit since I've been gone."
Aloepaw gave his sister a small smile now. "Push you around? It was just a bit of teasing." he clarified carefully.
'I really wish Almondfire was here. I doubt I can win in a fight-- stupid Amberflash refuses to train me right...'

Willowpaw growled at him. He should be fearing her. She wasn't crazy, like Brightpaw, but to kill him right now would be perfectly sensible of her. The only cat who would miss him would be Almond, but if she missed her brother so much, then Willowpaw would be happy to let her join him.
"..No, you're only saying that because I'm stronger than you now. If we were at the same level, you would be treating me like the scum of the Earth. You need to learn a lesson, Aloepaw." Willowpaw spoke calmly, her eyes burning icily.
Quick as can be, with her claws unsheathed Willowpaw leaped at him, aiming to knock the inexperienced cat down and pin him on his back.

...Oh mouse-dung.
Aloepaw stepped back in alarm, having little time to defend himself. Willowpaw's first action was successful, knocking her brother down easily onto his back. He let out a snarl, eyes suddenly losing their relaxed glaze and becoming clear pits of hate. Adrenaline coursed through his veins.
He had little battle training. Only his own self-taught moves and instincts could help him here, and his wrestling days with Almondfire in the nursery.
He was at a large disadvantage. But this was Willow-whine he was fighting here. She couldn't be that bad.
His hind legs rose to cover his stomach, and also tear up Willowpaw's own at the position. His front paws moved to circle around her neck, and his fangs lunged forward in an attempt to kill her.

Willowpaw's toned hindlegs kicked Aloepaw's own legs fiercely, to injure them, stop him from hurting her underbelly, and claw at his stomach.
This felt so freeing, being able to fight him. He clearly lacked any real battle experience, making this gleefully easy, like a dream come true.
Before Aloepaw's teeth could close around her throat, Willowpaw struck him in the face with her unsheathed claws to push him away. She then began to hit him in the face, over and over, going for the eyes, forehead, and ears, and staying clear of his mouth. By wrapping his paws around her, he'd left his chest, throat, and head open for attack.
She didn't worry about his paws on her neck- Her pelt was thick enough, and it was an awkward enough position that making any truly deep wounds was unlikely.

Oh CloudClan, she was ripping him apart.
He let out a loud yowl of pain, twisting his muzzle around and unlatching his claws from her neck to block Willowpaw's onslaught of attacks. His hind paws worked to try and claw her back, ever few seconds at least able to leave scars down her stomach, but nothing life threatening.
With a roar of fury, the bigger apprentice snapped his head up to smash against Willowpaw's jaw, and used the small chance of unbalance to slither out of her grip and bolt a safe distance away. His body was on fire from his freshly made wounds, and his only advantage was his bigger body and broad shoulders, which he hadn't been properly trained in using to his fullest potential. All Aloepaw could hope for was using strength over speed.
He had whipped around, ready for Willowpaw to attack again. Even though he was likely to lose, Aloepaw wasn't going to run away.

Willowpaw's jaw throbbed slightly with pain, and she loved every second of it. She really could kill Aloepaw here and now, before he got the chance to train and become stronger. The power, the control, it all felt so amazing that she never wanted this to end.
Almost instantly when Aloepaw got out from under her, she attacked him again, wanting to give him absolutely no chance to recover. She darted in towards him, looking as if she was going to try to pin him down again, but in the last moment, lowered herself and grabbed one of his front legs in her mouth, and twisted it, hard. The goal was if she couldn't break it, she would at least sprain it.

He let out a scream as her fangs latched onto his leg, and she twisted it. Aloepaw thudded against the ground from the force, his claws shooting out to tear at Willowpaw's eyes and face to release his limb. He snarled in her ear, whipping his body around to try and get his hind legs into position to get her.

The battle was won by now, but Willowpaw decided to keep going. His claws hooked onto her face and slashed down the side of it before she jumped back, her tail lashing.
She leaped on top of him, and pressed her unsheathed claws against his neck, making her threat clear. He could try to throw her off or roll away, but Willowpaw's reflexes were quick enough that he wouldn't be walking- or rather, limping away from this is he tried anything.

Aloepaw felt as if he was given a breather when Willowpaw let go and stepped back, but he froze up in shock when she lunged again, slammimg him down and pressing long claws into his throat fur. Despite having a thick coat, Aloepaw could feel the small prickles of pain, and he expected blood to be trickling out. The apprentice glared up a cruel sneer.
"Feel better?" he snarled, spitting blood in her face on purpose. Aloepaw's lips curled in a smile. "Little Willow-whine is all grown up, h-hmm?" His voice cut off a bit at the pressure from her claws. But his mocking face remained that way. "So now what? Going to kill me? Get exiled from the Clan? I don't even understand how this defeat is satisfying. It's not like I've had any battle training yet." His eyes gleamed in hatred. "Makes you still seem weak, you know."

Aloepaw's taunts fell on deaf ears. In Willowpaw's eyes, she'd won, and that was the only thing that matter. She pressed down on him, hard, trying to squeeze the breath out of him.
"What about you, Aloepaw? Are you going to go running to Almondfire after this, and get her to take care of your problems for you?" Willowpaw spoke coldly, her eyes blazing. "I bet you will. You aren't going to train, that's far too hard for a lazy fox-heart like you. Go ahead, go crawling to Almondfire, I can take her on too. But you might want to think twice, because after you tell her how you lost to Willow-whine, I don't think she'll be so keen on keeping you around."
Her eyes narrowed, Willowpaw jumped off of her brother, wanting to watch him limp away.
